| City Of Baltimore on Wednesday
afternoon. the Democratic State
| Convention put at the head of the
| ticket to be voted for this fall the
names of three of Maryland'S
most prominent and able citizens
Colonel John Walter Smith,
OF Worcester County, for Gov
ernor; DIR. Joshua w. Herring, OF
Carroll Comfy, for Comptroller,
and Mr.. lSidor Rayner, of Balti-
more City, for Acknowledgement.
Never in the history Of the
party was q convention held
under such favorable auspices
and which proved more harmon
ions in every respect. Not a rip
pie ruptured the smooth surface
of the stream of popular favor,
and everything that was done
was with a view of conciliating
the opposing factions in the party
and paving the way for a sweep
Ing victory this fall for the entire
ticket.
Hon. Murray Yandiver, Chair
man OF the State Central Com
mittee, called the convention to
order and named Col. L. V.
Baughman as the presiding Of
ticer. He also appointed Messrs.
John &. Mills, of Dorchester
County; William F. Porter, of
Baltimore City, and Ernest Hoff-
man, of Washington County, as
temporary secretaries.
After a few remarks the chair
man called for motions fer per.
manent organization. This was
quickly accomplished by naming
the committee on credentials and
resolutions. After their reports
lad been received, nominations
were in order.
When Colonel Baughman an
nounced this fact, and Edwin
Warfeld arose to name his old
personal friend, but until recent
ly his political rival, the crowd
went wild. Next to Colonel
Smith himself Warfield was the
most popular man in the conven.

Sterilized milk has become absolutely
essential to babies and sick people in
cities where the milk supply is drawn
from wide variety Of unknown
sources. It should be used more general
ly in all homes, and there would be less

A scientist who has spent much time in
studying the subject, gives this practi-
cal advice for sterilizing milk at home.
The mornings supply of fresh milk
should be placed in the inner vessel of
the plain double cooker found in nearly
every household and water put in the
outside vessel in sufficient quantity to
cook. the milk Put the cooker on the
stove and bring the milk almost to the
boiling point, holding 1t there for few
moments without letting it actually
boil Sterilize clean can with boiling
water and pour the milk into it, cover
ing the top with something that will fit
snugly to it. The pail must be put to
cool the milk as rapidly as possible.
Plunge it into ice water, if possible, or
hold it under the hydrant while cold
water is poured over it, The quicker
the process of cooling the better will
the milk prove.

Lamps and Their Proper Garcia Novel
Fire Screen-Why Your IN
derwear Shrinks.

1t is not necessary to enlarge upon
the discomforts caused by lamps, irreg
ularly filled, improperly cared for, red
olent of the fumes of kerosene and
shedding but dim and irreligious
light. We have all suffered under the
infliction and speak whereof we know
from bitter experience. Good lamps are
cheap, and there is no excuse for using
one proved past the power of redemp-
ton. Even in houses lighted by cleo
tricity or gas the lamp has an estab-
lished place en- the library table and
frequently in the dining room, and care
should be taken to see that it is always
in condition to fulfill the expectations
that center round it. The most essential
thing in securing. a good light from
lamp is absolute cleanliness. The oil
should always be of the best high test
and should be kept In close can, where
dust cannot reach it. The fonts of the
lamp, all parts of the tubes that hold
the wicks and the burners should be
kept clean. The metal holders and
burners require boiling once week in
water to which has been added a tea
spoonful each of salt and soda, for
heated metal gives out foul odors- A
small brush should be used to keep the
holes clear and the burner and all parts
of the lamp free from bits of wick and
dust. The scissors should be seldom
used. 1t is much better to rub off the
wicks with a little soft paper. The
wick must never crowd the tube. If
tight, pull out two or three Of the
threads lengthwise. The wicks soon be-
come clogged by the parafin in the oil
and if not in frequent use will need be
taken out occasionally, washed. boiled
and dried If soaked in vinegar and
dried, they will give clearer light.
All lamps should be wiped off and
filed daily. Keep the wick below the
top of the burner when not lighted, or
the wick will feed over through capil-
larry attraction. Turn up a short dis
lance when first lighted, but never turn
low and leave. When extinguishing a
lamp or oil stove, turn the wick down
until it shows only blue fame, when
the fame will flicker short time and
then go out. This precaution prevents
the unpleasant odor which accompanies
the blowing out of lamp. Chimneys
may be cleaned with a sponge, soft
cloth or paper, but never with bristles
or metal holder, as they leave scratches,
and the chimney breaks. Chimneys
may be tempered by putting in cold
water and brought to a boil, then al
lowed to cool in the water. Dealers say

why Your Underwear shrinks.

1t is not fair always to blame the
laundry or the washerwoman when
your knit underwear shrinks up under
your armpits or your anklets bind
tightly about your knees. A secret of
the manufacturers of such articles has
leaked out and throws a new ray of
light upon the troublesome subject 1t
seems that a practice prevails in some
of the factories of stretching the.goods
go as to make them from two to four
sizes larger than they were knit The
result is that an undershirt that fits a
man when purchased will shrink so
that it would be just right for his -
year-old son after its third washing.
That is due in many instances to this
trick of the makers more than to care

water artists. New York Press.

When he was travelling in Spain Alex
ander Dumas perfected himself in the
CONNECTION Of a favorite salad dressing
there, SO local that it is called "Spanish
salad dressing" But there are others in
best fashion in Madrid and Seville, be-
sides Andalusia. The one which Dumas
lifted into France by the prestige of his
name and his reputation as fastidious
host is combination Of eggs and lemon,
which, with pepper and salt, is the se-
cret of many successful salad Now
know Spanish dressing that was
taught me-or, rather, us, for we were
a party of eight-by the wife of Span
ish ambassador in Europe. It was the
purest olive oil, delicate green hue,
salt, pepper and vinegar, the last spar
ingly dropped into the oil With a fork
our hostess rubbed the dressing to
pale green cream, working it to and fro
with the tines Of the fork for about five
minutes, giving herself rather brisk ex-
ercise. It was made at the table for our
lettuce, and we helped ourselves from
the plate on which the dressing was
rubbed-beaten or whisked it certainly
was mott was worked horizontally on
the plate and produced a pale green
cream.
In Germany with the upper classes
the eldest daughter prepares the salad
dressing at the table, but as a rule this
is what is known as the simple French
dressing. The French, on the other
hand, do not treat the salad dressing
semiceremonially, but the salad is pre-
pared by servant just before it is put
on the table, unless some member of the
family looks upon the salad as his or
her special forte As to men generally it
is considered CONNIE il fault for them to
make punch, and then it is prepared
at the table, where the well bred and
grateful "others'' admire the operation
The servant alluded to is generally
bonnes- who is perfect cook, and would
be considered poor sort of house help il
she could not effect delicious salad.

Women Should Know it

Many women suffer untold agony ano
misery because the nature of their dis
ease is not correctly understood They
have been lead to believe that womb
trouble or female weakness of some sort
is responsible for the many ills that be
set womankind.
Neuralgia, nervousness, headache, puff
fly or dark circles under the eyes, rheu
matism, dragging pain or dull ache in
the back, weakness or bearing down sen.
sation, profuse or scanty supply of urine
with strong odor, frequent desire to pass
sediment IN it after standing in bottle OF
signs of kidney and bladder trouble.
The above symptoms are often attrib-
uted by the patient herself or by her
physician to female weakness or womb
trouble Hence so many fail to obtain
relief, because they are treating, not the
disease itself, but reflection of the pri-
mary cause, which is kidney trouble.
In fact, women as well as men are
made miserable with kidney and blad-
der trouble and both need the same
remedy.
Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is the great
discovery of the eminent kidney and
bladder specialist, and is easy to get at
any drug store for fifty cents or one dol
lar.
