Pickled Cabbage.

No more delicious pickle can be fou d
than that which any house. wife can
easily make from rcd cabbage. II she
follows the recipe given hers.
Red cabbAg~s are usually scarce. and
obtainsble only in winter; 20 nov i the
time to begin.
You slice the cabbage a. for old slaw
discarding the hard white centre.
Spread it on cish in layers. thickly
sprinkiing each with salt. ALLOW 1t to
remain like this for twenty -four hours-
At the end Of this time . great deal Of
brine will be found in the dish. This
must be squeezed out OF the cabbage,
witch is best done by means OF the
hand. Then separate the shreds % they
will lie tightly on each other. and pro-
ceed to ill your jars. Have ready some
vinegar hcated TO the boiling ps int and
containing spices To . quart should
be allowed one ounce Of whole black
peppers half An ounce Of nu tard seed
and = few sticks Of ginger.
Pour the spiced vinegar over the cab
bAge and il will at once turn from an
ugly purplish brown to a bright cherry
crimson. Tbs vinegar should be strair-
ed and the spices tied in squares of mus
lin and deposited in the neck OF each
jar. Cover anb set aside. The pickle
will keep indefinitely, will be found a
delightful addition to chops, steak or
roast meat. Enough vinegar must be
allowed to fill all the Jars. and its quail
ty must be Of the very best. The cheap
adulterated kinds sold at the average
grocery will not do. tis best to buy
some reliable brand bottled. This is the
only way to insure the striking" color
English house wives sometimes expe-
rience as much difficulty in getting their
picked cabbage to look red as Ameri-
cans do in inducing jelly to ,iell." And
the cherry makes makes the pickle no
pretty to serve.

Octogenarian of North Christian
Dies very Suddenly.

Trade Water, KY, June 4.-Mr.
Jesse M. Parker died very sudden
ly at his home on Mcknight Creek,
near Clardy, late Wednesday ev-
ening. uncle Mat" as he was
called, was about 80 years of age,
and had been unusually stout and
active for a man of his age until
early in the spring, when his whole
system seemed to give way, and he
had very feeble health ever since.
Wednesday afternoon he sat up and
talked cheerfully with a friend and
expressed himself as feeling much
better than be had felt for some
time. Late in the afternoon his
wife went with lady friend fishing
on a little creek that runs near
their home, leaving him alone.
During their absence her son, Mr..
Frank Parker, who lives on the
place, and who was working in a
field nearby, went to the house and
found his father alone and in d
sinking condition. He went out
and called for his wife, who was in
hearing, and nearby neighbors,,
hearing his call, fastened to the
scene. But worn out with the
cares of a long life, Jesse Madison
Parker has passed into the Great
Beyond. He was a brother of Esq.
o. S. Parker, of the West Crofton
country, and son of Obed Parker,
one Of the pioneer settlers of this
county.
Clyde Haskins, son of Mr.. James
Haskins, died at his parents home,
near Collins bridge, of an abscess
on the lungs, on Tuesday of last
week, aged about 10 years.
The fine seasons this week have
been favorable for setting tobacco,
and most of our farmers are done
setting, Cut worms are giving US
a great deal OF trouble just now.

1t is stated tonight that the State
convention, to be held here June 8,

him.
1t also seems quite clear that
Judge Lewis McQuown, of Bowling
Green, is the choice of the party
for the chairman Of the State Gen.
trial and State Executive commit
tees, over Congressman James N.
Kehoe.
1t is claimed by McQuown's
friends that he will get over 800
votes in the convention, and it is
quite evident from present indica.
tions that he will have at least 700
of the LIP delegate votes in the
convention.
For the first time in years there
will be no contesting delegations
from the Fifth Congressional dis
trict, which is composed of Jeffer-
son county. McQuown carried all
conventions in this district.
Mr.. McQuown also carried the
First, Second, Third and Fourth
Congressional districts practically
solid. He has a good majority in
the~Slxth district, besides three
counties in the Seventh, one in the
Eighth and two in the Ninth dis
trict. Both McQuown and Kehoe
claim majorities in the Tenth and
I, lA"e-'tN districts.

Nothing appears to give children SO
much becoming confidence and behav-
Tor and so to raise them to the CONVEX

though dancing consists only in out
ward gracefulness of motion, yet, I
know not how, it gives children manly

thing" He adds, however, that the
teacher must be good one, for 81
think it more passable to put off the

DR.. Theodore Miller was nervous
His nervousness had manifested itself
some time before the heavy stone posts
of the carriage gateway appeared to
view, and all the way along the dusty
road it had materially increased. Now
as he stood at last before the entrance
to the Poplars, it had grown to such
proportions that he paused in mental
1rresolution, which babe fair to de.
velop into precipitate fight.
Indeed, so much had his courage ebb-
ed that for several wavering seconds
he stood there looking despairingly at
the trim driveway before him and
casting wistful glances at the dusty
road he had just travelled. 1t was not
until he had called himself numerous
kinds of moral coward and pro-
crastinating idiot, modified by varie-
gated adjectives, that he started re-
luctantly up the driveway.
"See here, my boys" he observed, in
voluntarily squaring his shoulders and
quickening his steps. "This will never
do in the world. You can't put it off
any longer, for they leave tomorrow.

However, with all his qualms and
tremors, Miller marched sturdily up the
drive. Soon the path turned sharply,
and he stood before the colonial house.

head of the house, Colonel John Grew
Worth, U. s. A, retired, stretched COM
fortably in steamer chair No one
else was in sight. A closer inspection
disclosed the fact that Colonel John

The disclosure was brought about by
the ears rather than by the eyes, for
Colonel Worth had dropped his lower
jaw and was sending heavenward a Sc

Miller mounted the steps and, draw

for Colonel Worth, besides being a
sound sleeper, was so deaf that moth
