Discussed the Dispensary.

Rev Claude L. Chiffon of Greensboro here introduced resolution condemnlng the dispensary system. in that under the system the State sold the liquohr instead of bar keepers. and that the moral eff feet was no different. Mfr. Chiffon set out his views eloquently and made a fine prohibition talk.
 He was opposed by Rev. J. B. Cumming of Mobile, who held that the dispensary was a stepping stone to prohibition and was therefore desirable if prohibition could not be had. Mir Cumming offered a substitute that the Conference dla not deem it wise to take up the matter at this time.
 Dr. A. J. Lamar mover to lay both reso- lution and substitute on the table, holding that the church's attitude toward the liquor traffic was set out in the discipline. Dr. J. w. Rush read the section re- ferred to. Dr .Lamar's motion prevailed by a large ma aojrity. The appointments were then read a hymn was sung and Rev. J. H. Peterson led in prayer. pr. J. NJ. Mason arose from his seat and said:
 MT. President. move we adjourn sine die The motion was carried unanimously. The Doxology was sung and Bishop Smith pronounced the benediction. | The work of the Conference was fin ished
 Numerous members left on the night | trains but a majority of them stayed over in Montgomery until today. Bishop Smith, after shaking hands around with the members of the Con- ference, left for his Charlotte, N. C., home last night.

Odds and Ends.

In coloring plaster casts, dark chrome
green gives the blue green shade seen so
frequently on casts colored in imitation of
antique green bronze. A dark dull green
is made by mixing chrome green and
chrome yellow.
In oiling' a floor with linseed oil use half
a gallon of boiled linseed oil. mixed with
a quarter of a pound of burnt sienna. A
good dye for floors is made of a strong de-
coction of the inside of red oak bark, set
with copperas.s Rub ii In thoroughly and
after it dries rub the floor with a waxed
brush.
A remedy highly recommended for stom-
ach disorders is the white of a fresh egg
whipped up with a tablespoonful of brandy
and sweetened with white sugar to taste.
Repeat the dose three or four times a day.
1t will be found that the egg acts as a
g%lutinous coat to the lining of the stomach,
while the brandy stimulates it.
To cement metal letters or on
glass, thoroughly mix fifty parts by weight
of dry white lead and 100 parts pulverized
white litharge, and work it, with one part
copal laquer and three parts boiled linseed
oil. TO a plastic condition. Coat the sur
face OF the object with this, press it upon
the glass and scrape away the surplus ce-
ment with a knife, or anything handy. The
cement will dry rapidly.
Pure glycerin should not be used upon
the skin. 1t should first be mixed with an
equal amount of water. The reason for
this is that glycerin has a strong affinity

by applying a drop to the tongue. although
it tastes sweet, the first sensation is that of

The modern hOusekeeper understands
that rags for a dishcloth are neither clean
" nor profitable. The shreds get into the
plumbing. often with expensive effects. and
a dishcloth so worn that 1t will not bear
regular laundering in the weekly wash is
one that cannot receive proper care. In
all w~ell-regulated houses dishcloths are
as distinct and separate n provision of the
household economy as napkins or pillow
cases. Material for the purpose is sold in
the shops. and the cloths should be hemmed
as carefully as any bit Of the household
linen.
