A GOOD SALAD DRESSING.
Recipe for Making the Real "Old
 VirEinny'' Article of By- ~~ Gone Days. #s

Now for the chicken salad! The meat had been. cut from the bones and freed from skin and gristle. Betty measured itand allowed three-fourths as much celery, cut into inch lengths Then she began her dressing. This was no modern mayonnaise, but the regular "Old Virginny" dressing used when mayonnaise was as yet little knownrin this country, says Christine Terhune Herrick, in Success.
 fsTwo cupfuls of boiling water, to which you add two tablespoonfuls of corn starch; wet up with cold water" ran Betty's grandmother's recipe. "Stir over the fire until thick and add tablespoonful of fat from the liquor in which the chickens were boiled. Take from the fire, whip in three raw eggs, and, when the mixture is nearly cold, put in the yolks of three hard- boiled eggs, rubbed smooth with two teaspoonfuls made mustard, one table spoonful powdered sugar, one tea spoonful each of salt, pepper and Wor- cestershire sauce, two otablespoonfulso of oil, a few drops at time, and a cupful of vinegar. Strain through net, mois- ten the salad with half of it, and beat the rest into the thick part-of the dressing, which should be entirely cold. Garnish the salad with the whites of the hard-boiled eggs" This was the complete recipe. 4szs@

earth-out of hole in the ground where they made bad whisky and where they lived. But wanted to tell you how the moonshiners turned the tables on the officers. When stills are captured in that section they are de- stroyed, and if fthe officers have no pos itive evidence which connects the moon sinners with the still, why, of course, they leave sthem in the mountains. They do it in this way: If they cap ture six men they drop them one at time and several miles apart so they can make no attack. The moonshiners who had captured us concluded they would use. this clever system in get ting rid of our crowd. They took our arms awayfrom us and began to march toward civilization. Up hiH and down hill we went for miles and miles before one man and told him to slSedaddle. I they had carried Us far enough. We thought we would be released in a body. But not much. They dropped one man and told him to sledadle. I never saw man run as fast in my life until later when they turned the second man loose three miles back, with the same command. Twas the last man to be freed. They told me to scoot after offering few friendly remarks, the meaning of which was that should forever thereafter keep outen these parts scooted as I never scooted be- fore and as have never scooted since, and I knew not whither Twas scooting. No more hunting for rnoonshiners in mine. They can make enough bad whisky to launch flood that would make the one of Noah's time look like an April shower so far as I am con- cerned. I don't have to drink it mo-. how and so why should Iworry about it ?''

Amateur Revenue Officers Tale of

Moonshiners Used Unique Method of Digp0sing of Prisoners - Told Them to Rum for Their

That storNaboutt the raid on moon sinners out in the mountains of Vir- ginia made me think of little expert ence had a number of years ago" said 3 man from Tennessee, to New Or leans Times-Democrat reporter, "and 1 may add that it was my last expert ence in matters of that sort. I had gone up into the mountains of East Tennessee with a squad of deputy United Sta tes marshals to rather re- mote point where it was reported that a still was in full blast. We had de- spaired of finding any trace of the moonshiners. The country was very wild, very rugged and it was no easy matter for us to move about in the search we were making. Here and there we passed yawning caverns, and precipices, and things of that sort, but without finding any trace of human life. We found nothing to indicate that the wild region was the habitation of human beings. As said we were about to despair when wild shriel suddenly arrested our attention. As if by magic dozen or more men had sprung up on all sides of us and we were helpless and could do nothing but throw up our hands in obedience to the command given. You can bet we were glad to get off this much to the good. for the prospects of living at that moment were not particularly bright. We were M the hands of desperate gang of moonshiners we had gone out to cap ture. Out on one side of the hillNwe . T.

A SHOWER PARTY.
New Torn, of Entertainment for tha
 ,Ysung Woman Who He's Just 1 Become Engaged.

The mania for parties which shah be remunerstive in some degree is continually breaking out along new lines, suggested by modern ability to create plausible excuses for present. ing gifts. And these parties are made so insidiously attractive and the real object is so cleverly hidden that you never give it thought beyond your own desire to contribute your share, says the New York Sun.
 After all, it is the gambling instinct in us, that little, sneaking desire for reward, however diminutive it may ibe, which adds zest to any amuse- ment. If it is all on a small scale, quite innocent of any,real greed, peo- pie are all the more ready to overlook this spirit.
 One of the latest notions of this kind, and one of the most interesting for young men and women, is the shower party, which is so guilclcss and unselfish that the very name in- vests it with a new charm.
 ,i It is given entirely in the interest of the engaged girl by her1friends, at the home of one ofthern, or it may bc in the nature of a surprise party, if they. choose to mako 1t so. The fors tunate young woman is not supposed to know any of the p1ans, and is m invited guest with the others.
 All except herself are requested to bring presents, whose nature is stip. ulated, in the invitation- There ara showers and showers, besidesth tra- ditional rain-like pitcbforks, and it may be china shower, a glass or a. linen shower, a wooden shower or a kitchen showeS- S-anything;st they agree upon-and all the gifts are classified under one head.
 A point which helps to add no end of sport to the evening is that each article must be done up in some odd, grotesque kind of package, as unlike in shape and sizeto sthe.article as it ia possible to make it. Then all sorts of advice, funny amottoes and appro> priate messages are inscribed there on, and the guests are invited to gueS the contents.
 The one who guesses theisnost gets a prize, and each one Reepsa@recordoe her own guesses.
 One of the funniest bundles is q broom done up in a form about as suggestive of the real thing as an uP~ right piano would be, and marked at the handle end: "For Storm" and at the broom end "For Calm"
