Noylces nt Cake-BakIng.

In the course of her lessons on
"Cookery for Girls" in the Woman's
Home Companion, Sallie Joy White
contrasts the experience of the novice
in cake-baking in the home and school
Kitchens:
'It usually happens that the very
first thing young cook undertakes to
do is to make cake. 1 can't tell you
why this is so universally the case,
but the fact remains undisputed and
undisputable. I dare say, however,
one reason is that every detail follows
so quickly one upon another that the
result is quickly attained. Ithappens,
too, very many times that after the
cake mixture is compounded it is left
in more experienced hands for baking.
And the mixing is only cne-half the
work; the least important half, too,
for any cake, however elaborate, may
be spoiled by careless baking, while
the simplest one may be made fine
and nice by attention while it is in the
oven.
"But in the school kitchens the
cake-making, or, indeed, the mixing
OF any batters, is not taught until the
pupils have mastered the stove,
learned to make and keep fire, and
to cook simple food without mixing.
In this way the teaching is made sys-
tematic, and is thoroughly under
stood.n

More Brain and Less whisky.

Far be It from the descendant. OF long
line OF seamen to be willing hereto.
Nevertheless, we protest against those pa
gan notions derived from the devotees OF
Dacchus and believers in Neptune, which
still rule deck and yard. When men really
believed In the muddy god OF the trident,
1t was appropriate that, rs the ship first
touched water, q bottle OF wine should be
offered In propltiatlon OF Neptune. Our
highly specialized commanders need not
less, but more brain, and whisky is brain
thief. Those who, per allan, pour whisky
over the bow from broken bottle are
very likely to make funnel OF their
throats. What has come OF such proceed
ure is known to readers OF naval records.
Are sailors In more danger from strong
drink than soldiers? We do not affirm this.
We do but believe that some of the most
awful disasters that have overtaken the
arms OF the United States, both on land
and sea, have come from alcohol In the
stomach and on the brain. Who does not
recall our "0neida" and the British "Vic-
torla," both OF which went down like
flash? Perhaps alcohol had nothing to do
with either disaster. Some think II had.
1t can be shown that the decline OF Dutch
sea power ran parallel with the increase OF
the use OF strong drink.
1t Is a matter OF prosaid fact that the
abolition OF the grog ration In the British
service marked a tremendous advance In
the health, morals and strength Of the en-
tire service. Rev. DR.. Grlnlth, in Indepen-
dent.

THE DUTY OF MOTHERS,
Daughters Should be Carefully
Guided in Early Womanhood.

What suffering frequently results
from a mothers Ignorance; or more
frequently from n mothers neglect to
properly instruct her daughter
Tradition says woman must suffer"
and young women are so taught.
There is little truth and great deal
of exaggeration in this. If young
woman suffers severely she needs
treatment and her mother should see
that she gets it.
Many mothers hesitate to take their
daughters to a physician for examina-
ton; but no mother need hesitate to
write freely about her daughter or
herself to Mrs. Pinkham and secure
The most efficient advice without
charge. Mrs. Pinkham's address is
Lynn, Mass.
The following letterf from Miss MARIE
F. JOHNSON, Centralia, Pa, shows what
neglect will do, and tells how Mrs.
Pinkham helped her:
"My health became so poor that 1
had to leave school. was tired all the

From the camps OF soldiers at different
points information comes OF runs mis-
chievous work among our brave boys. On
every side they are exposed to the sDares
of runs agents, and not few have already
fallen victims. Let us haste to the rescue.
What Is done must be done quickly. The
friends Of temperance knowing as they do
the value OF temperance. the arts OF the
temIter, the availability OF means to save,
should put forth every effort and not leave
this large body Of brave men to perish.
Government should be appealed to to sup
press by its strong arm the murderous
traffic, especially in the environments OF
the camps. Again and again, even In large
cities, this was done during the Civil War.
The people have an interest In this matter
and have right to speak. Let money be
raised and men be sent through the camps
to warn and admonish, to encourage and
cheer, and see that temperance tracts and
temperance papers are circulated.-Tem-

Discovered New Island on the Horn.


1t does not often fall to the lot of
navigator nowadays to discover a new
island, but such a distinction is
claimed by Captain Pande of the Nor
wegian ship Prince Edward, which re-
Gently discharged at Girard Point
piers cargo of manganese ore from
Cariizal, Chill. The Captain was ON
his way to Philadelphia from that dis
tant port when, ON March 9, in the
South Atlantic Ocean, he discovered a
new and unknown island in latitude
forty-two degrees south and longitude
thirty-five degrees and thirty eight
minutes west.
The island is not very large, only
500 feet long and forty feet wide, but
Captain Pande thinks it big enough
to bear a name, and he is thinking of
naming it Dewey Island, in honor of
the distinguished Admiral. The new
land, which is undoubtedly Of xa,hs,sn1iic
origin, lies in the trasksof all vessels
rounding Cape aorn aorn outward or home.
ward bog,bssa bog,sa. The water in its vicini-
.y-was found to be very warm. The
sea broke over it with great force,
and the waters had disturbed ap-
pearance. There was also an entire
absence of the well-defined currents
known to all navigators.
Soundings in the vicinity, made at
Captain Pande's orders, showed the
water to be 1000 feet deep all around
the island. At long distance the
new land appears to be well defined,
but at night it might easily cause the
loss of any vessel striking it, as there
is nothing to warn mariners of i'm

Don't Cut the Foretop.

Don't cut your horses foretop off if
you ever expect to sell him to dealer.
A shaved foretop knocks from ten to
fifty per cent. off of the market value
of a roadster, a coach horse, cob or
a saddle horse. The practice of clip
ping horses foretops and generally
from three to six inches of the name
with it has become a very common
one. 1t never improves horses looks,
and is rarely beneficial.
Fashion demands that coach
horse, cob, hack, roadster or any
sort of a saddle horse must wear n
foretop, and it is serious mistake to
clipit off of any marketable trotting-
bred horse. Horse Review.

Destroying LIrerorerer.

This is not really dangerous weed
on rich land, for though it spreads by
its roots, and these are apparently in
destructible when dug up and exposed
to the air, the weed is not nearly so
hard to kill as its disoouraging name
implies. If the land be not rich, its
leaves and stalks will be less succu-
lent, and it is by rotting these down
in connection with the root that the
plant is to be rotted down and thus
killed Exposure to air and sun mere
ly dries up the roots, and when wet
time comes they revive and grow again.

An Arab Legend.

The Arabs have fable from which we
may learn q helpful lesson.
Once upon a time miller. shortly after
he had lain down for an afternoon nap, was
startled by a camel's nose being thrust In
at the door OF the house.
1T is very cold outside" said the camel;
II only wish to get my nose In"
The miller was an easy kind OF man,
and so the nose was let In.
THE wind Is very sharp" sighed tho
camel; pray allow me to put my neck In
side"
This request was also allowed and the
neck was also thrust in.
How fast the rain begins to fall shall
get wet through. viii You let me place my
shoulders under Govern"
This, too, was granted; and so the camel
asked for little, and n little more, until he
had pushed his whole body inside the
house.
The miller soon began to be put to much
trouble by the rude companion he had got
In his room, which was not large enough
for both, and as the rain was over, clvllly
asked him to depart.
III you don't like II you may leave" sauc-
lily replied the beast. "As for myself,
know when l am we'll of, and shall stay
where al. - .----.--. .--------,.--.
This is a very good story; we hope the
Arabs are all tho wiser and better for 1t;
but let us also try to turn 1t to good ac-
count.
