The Governor and the Smallpox.

News and Courier, Thursday: The
smallpox pest has not been entirely
eliminated from the state. The state
board of health and Governor Nc
Sweeney are doing all they can to stop
it, and today, in statement about the
situation, Governor McSweeney said {:
"I have been very much interested in
the effort to stamp out smallpox in this
state, and all cases reported to me
have been promptly referred to DR..
James Evans, secretary of the state
board of health, and by him given i'm
mediate attention. In spite of these
efforts the disease still fingers in the
state, and if not checked or stamped
out NAV cause much trouble during
the coming fall and winter. I am
afraid our people do not realize the
Importance and necessity of vaccina-
ton. The state board of health has
endeavored to impress the Importance
of vaccination as a preventative, and
has emphasized the fact that thorough
vaccination was the only way to pre-
vent spread of the disease and to
stamp it out efectually. And yet we
have been unable to secure complete
vaccination. If the managers of our
cotton mills and the operatives could
be made to realize the Importance to
their communities and to themselves
and their property of vaccination, am
sure they would not neglect it any
longer. Compulsory vaccination is
not only not popular, but the use of
force is not always the best way to
accomplish results. In fact 1 doubt
the wisdom of resort to force, except
it may be in extreme cases where
persons persistently and stubbornly re-
fuse to submit to vaccination. My
purpose now is to call the attention Of
the people to the Importance of this
matter and to urge upon them the
good judgment of assisting the sup
preston of the disease by submitting to
vaccination. 1 would be glad to have
the managers of the cotton mills to
call the attention of the mill communi-
ties to the Importance of vaccination,
and am sure fit is done in the prop
er spirit there will be no resistance or
objection to vaccination. School
trustees and teachers and superin-
tendents could also aid in this work
by requiring evidence of vaccination
as a requisite for the entrance of pu-
pills to the schools. hope all the peo-
pie of the state will unite in an effort
to stamp out the disease"

A Good Winter Cake, which does not
require eggs, is made as follows
Take one pound of flour and well-miX
it with a teaspOOnful of carbonate of
soda; rub into the flour four Ounces of
good beef dripping, four ounces of su-
gar, eight ounces currants, and one
ounce of finely chopped peel Mix all
with one-half pint of milk, to which has
been added a tablespoonful of vinegar.
The cake may be favored with ground
ginger, mixed spice, etc, to taste. Bake
this novel cake in a slow oven for one
and a half or two hours and you will
be delighted with it.
Pancakes-Three eggs, one pint of
milk, salt, flour, lard, sugar and lemon,
if liked. Beat the eggs we'll; mix with
them about a third of the milk: add
sufficient -four, in which put a pinch of
salt, to make a stiff paste, which
should be beaten until it is quite
smooth. By degrees add the remaining
milk and stir well. This batter is i'm
proved if made some hours before being
fried. Melt in frying pan about an
ounce of good lard and pour into it not
quite a teacupful of batter, which
should be fried a light brown on both
sides. The pancakes are lighter if eaten
as soon as cooked, spread fiat on a
plate, though they are often sent to
table covered with sugar and lemon
juice and rolled.

FAULT FINDING.

A mistress who is always finding
fault with her servants for this, that or
the other thing, or, as they themselves
express it, always driving and nag
ging at them" VIII never keep a really
coed servant. even if she is fortunate
enough to engage one. If a maid neg
leCts her work, forgets an order or
makes a mistake, it is, Of course, nee
Gssary to notice the neglect. to point
out the mistakes she has made. There
is no necessity, however, to do this an
gTily. hastily or sharply, for there may
be eXtenuatins circumstances the serV-
ant has to plead and which when heard
viii disarm our wrath. and to lose ones
temper and speak sharply unnecessar-
lily does not add to ones dignity, nor
does il raise the respect a servant
ought TO feel for her mistress, for it is
not easy to really respect a person who
has no control over either the temper
or tongue. Like ones grown up chill
lren. servants cannot bear to be found
fault with before other people, whether
these others are members Of the family,
strangers or their own fellow domes-
tics and if we think Of the matter fair
ly we can understand this dislike and
see that il is quite natural.
We ourselves do not like TO be taken
to task in public or have any little mis-
take we may have made remarked
upon or called attention TO. Servants
have just the same feelings, for they
are not children any more than is the
mistress-in fact, they are often older
than the latter. A wise mistress, who
wants to have and to keep good serv-
ants. should herself do any fault find
ing that may be required and never, if
possible DO help it, depute the task to

THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL WORLD.

What is the secret of gladness? There
are many things which help to make
people glad. This is a beautiful world
in which we live. When the work of
creation was finished. God surveyed il
and saw it was very good. We do not
think enough Of what God has done for
our pleasure in the way that He has
adorned this world preparing it to be
our home. He has spread loneliness
everywhere. He has covered the fields
with a luXuriance of vegetation. He
has sown the earth with flowers. The
wonderful variety in nature-mOuntain
and vale. lake, river and stream give
an added charm to the marvellous
beauty Then over all this sDlendOr
God has thrown a vast, vaUlted roof Of
blue. in which. when night comes, in
stead Of black darkness. thousands of
starlamps are hung to pour their soft,
quiet radiance over Gods children
while they sleep.

QUEEN OF PORTUGAL AS A SUR

Queen Amelie of Portugal, whilst
driving in the environs Of Lisbon re-
Gently. heard cries for assistance. She
went TO see what was the matter, and
found that a wood-cutter had been in
jured by a branch Of a falling tree.
Queen Amelie. who has studied medi-
cine, attended to the mans injury, and
then, with her companion, assisted him
to reach his cabin. Later on the queen
called to see how her patient was.
Then you are a doctor, madam, since
you know how to take care of me?"
asked the wood-cUtter, who did not
know his 6enefactress Yes, my good
man." was the reply. 4 am sorry for
that" continued the wood cutter, be
cause will never be able to pay you.
But you must give me your address,
and as soon as L can go out [ will bring
you q basket of fresh eggs and butter
by way Of thanks" The queen replied
eYasiyely. and the surprise of the
wood-cutter may be imagined when he
subsequently learned the rank of his
lady physician, who, by the way, en-
joys the unique distinction as the only

ALLOWING OUR NATURES TO
BROADEN.

To give generously Of ones own ma
ture is not only precaution against
loneliness, but the constant giving
helps to mould ones nature. It seems
TO me that the girl who has no ad-
vantageS' should, above ALL keep her
nature mouldable. There is a benefit
in changeableness which very few peo-
pie recognize. The girl who outgrows
her OLD opinions, who is influenced by
new developments, who is willing to
give up old prejudices-this is the girl
who is growing and who will still grow.
The girl who has no advantages is
apt TO be girl of strong prejudices,
and needs to be careful lest her pre-
JUDGES make her narrow and bar away
from her many an avenue of pleasure
and success.
