KeyhOle in the Door,

Officers Hannah and Eakright dealt
Judge Macarthur two black and torn
deuces Saturday. A woman Of the town
having complexion like burnt sugar, a
head as strange in shape as her name
and form like a drink of water, was
arraigned along with her husband, who
was several, full sized, shades darker and
had head like beachnut. The woman
was elegantly tough and left no doubt in
the minds of the police court hangers-o
who had gathered, expecting sensational
testimony, that she would tell 1.-THE truth
and the whole truth" as she answered;
shuah! shuah! sab! to his honor's question
The officers had been unfair in securing
their evidence, having used 1.-The keyhole
in the door" as point of observation.
But their story went, Notwithstanding
the sweeping denial made by the dusky
maid with an accommodating nature.
The male companion put up story
which reminded one of Mr.. johnson,
Turn Me Loose" and was turned. But
the woman was charged $40 for being SO
liberal with her smiles, and as she left
the courtroom seemed to be singing to
her man: If you don't get me out you
can just take your clothes and CO.

tracts.
Skim Milk.-1t is common practice
in many households to use more or less
milk in mixing bread dough, since it is
believed that the quality of the bread is
thereby improved. Frequently skim
milk is used instead of whole milk.
Doubtless comparatively few persons
realize that skim milk has fairly high
food value and that it's use makes bread
more nutritious, in addition to improy
ing it's quality. 1t must be remembered
that when the cream is removed the
milk is deprived of only one of it's con-
stituents, namely, fat. 1t still contains
practically all the highly nutritious
casein and other heterogeneous materials
as we'll as the milk sugar and ash origin
ally present, in addition to about O.3 per
cent of fat.
Tomatoes.--When tomatoes are canned
it is common practice to drain off the
juice. The analyses of the Minnesota
station shows that this entailed loss of
about % per cent of the total sugar
present. If it is desired to retain all the
nutritive material which the tomato
contains, it is evident that the Juice
should be retained.
Apples.-In the pioneer days of fruit
culture the great aim and object of the
enterprising planter seems to have been
to secure and plant all of the numerous
varieties within his reach without con
sidering the question of adaptability of
the variety to the condition of soil and
climate. For time at least, while the
soil was new and disease and insects less
numerous, his efforts gave fairly salts
factory results. Now, however. condi-
tions have changed and many of the
sorts that were once popular and profit
able are considered valueless; SO that.
Notwithstanding the list of desirable va
rieties is greatly increased, growers find
themselves compelled to study more
carefully the adaptability of the varieties
suited to their special condition and pur-
poses. 1t is from these causes that the
carefully prepared list of fruit in bulletin
No. 8 may be recommended to the planter
as comparatively safe guide in the Sc
lection of varieties.
Cooking Potatoes.-In order to obtain
the highest food value, potatoes should
not be peeled before cooking. When the
potatoes are peeled before cooking, the
least loss is sustained by putting them
directly into hot water and boiling as
rapidly as possible. Even then the loss
is very considerable. If potatoes are
peeled and soaked in cold water before
boiling, the loss of nutrients is very
great, being one-fourth of all the albu-
minoid matter,
