Finest Potatoes Ever Seen.

The editor of this paper has received,
with the compliments of Mr.. b. II. Thomp-
son, of Idalia Beaufort county, a barrel
of the finest Irish potatoes even seen in
Raleigh. In a private note to the editor
Mr.. Thompson says: "They were grown
on some of the South Creek land that
you often brag on, with seven hundred
pounds of Durham Farmers Alliance
guano made by the Durham Manufacture
ing Company, Durham N. c., and made
from eighty to one hundred barrels to
the acre"
The largest ones have been on exhi-
bition in the News and Observer office
several days and have attracted much
interest and surprise. The editor of this
paper is big eater, but it is all he can
manage to stow away one of Mr.. Thomp-
sons magnificent potatoes. They can't
be beat anywhere in the world.

Here is an interesting, and practically

A small quantity of arrowroot added
to the salt in the salt cellar will pre-
vent it's hardening. Cornstarch used
in moderate quantities will have the
same effect.
Iron pots and utensils which are not
in daily use are apt to rust; to prevent
this, make a paste with thick starch
and strong solution of soda and
water, and with this coat the inside of
the article in question. This can
easily be rinsed off when the pot is
wanted.
The corks of bottles or jars con tain
ing substances which are apt to be
very sticky should be dipped in salad
oil before being replaced.
Asbestos towels are among the Gu

the little nine year old girl was laugh
lag at some amusing passage with
little friend and her mother reproved
her for heartlessness. She never saw
her mother smile after this shock,
never knew the home to be other
than darkened, and her feeling for
years was that her mother did not
love her that she was to blame for
being alive when her brother was
dead. Her father passed away before
she was grown, and she had always
been convinced that the grief he felt,
and the GOODNESS of the household at

No two of our children are precise
ly alike. In their budding natures we
may discern what they are going to
be. The child who stops to look at
every pebble, to pick every flower,
who brings her mother bouquet and
shows skill in the blending of colors,
and some knowledge of color effects,
may one day be a botanist or an art
ist. To check her for littering the
house with weeds and rubbish is not
only unkind, but may do her harm in
diverting her from pursuits to which
Nature is leading her.-Good House

"HANDS OFF, GENILEMENf''

Writing ia the October Century of
"Chinese Traits and Western Blum
ders," Bishop Porter warns the ma
tons against any attempt to partition
the Chinese Empire.
May a large wisdom and temper
other than that of revenge deal with
the Chinese question as the essential
equities involved ia it demand. We
are told that the destiny of China is
to be partitioned up among the great
powers. There could not be a more
stupid or shameless policy. A nation,
like man, has a right to be until she
has demonstrated Enthusiastically her
incompetence to administrator her
affairs with equal justice to all. It
cannot be maintained that China has
SO far descended the path of national
decay and disintegration. She is
stained with long record of dis
honored and discredited officials, cur
rupt, mercenary, and INSCRIPTIONS.
Alas! is the record of other people
unstained in this regard? She has
been guilty of the gravest crimes
against international rights and COM
tiles. Let her be punished for them
as she deserves. But let not the mad
acts of ignorant and infamed revolu-
tionists be made the pretext for pull
ing down venerable and histor-
ic civilization, whose younger and
Worthier SONS are lust now turning
toward the light. Hands off, gentle
men, kings, emperors, and presidents,
until a people, stirred at length by
the vision of nobler ideals, shall show
us what they can do for their own
regeneration!

LADIES' COLUM NJ
BABYS KISS.

I carried it with me down town,
I slipped at it's sweetness all day;
1t made me more patient with worrying work
More thoughtful of what I should say.
And once inthe thick of the fray,
When the fame of my anger flashed high,
[ cooled with the thought of my babys smile
AS she kissed me a loving good by.
When thrust at my work-fel1ow's fault,
Whom deemed in honor remiss,
I sheathed the blade of my scorn as I thought
He has no baby to kiss
Whatever of pleasure or pelf
Thy father may hap1y miss,
God make him, my darling, more fit
Each night for thy welcoming kiss.

Have you ever noticed a common
habit of discussing work and worry at
the table? Perhaps it is because meal
time is the only time in some homes
where all are gathered together at
one time that this has come about;
whatever the reason it is wholly bad
habit. At the family meal each
should try to be bright, all should be
at their best-only so can the bodily
food partaken of give it's best returns.
