HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

Here is a suggestion, cribbed from
Harpers Bazaar, which sets us on the
track of something new in the pickle
line: Gather the very tiny pods of
string beans, cut off the ends and re-
move the little beginnings OF strings"
Pack in glass cans, and pour over them a
boiling spiced vinegar prepared as for
sweet picked peaches or pears.
A good pudding is very nourishing
article of diet. Rice pudding, tapioca
with fruit and cheam, bread pudding
and Drown Betty" are all substantial
in food values and should be served on
days when the meat course is light.
The top of an old marbletopped table
may be made of much use in the pantry
as a slab on which to mix and roll out
pastry. BY having wooden top made
for the table and covering it with
cloth, the table is just as serviceable as
a piece of furniture and much more con-
venient for use because not so heavy.
To sweeten the water in a cistern,
put one or more pounds of charcoal
in a muslin bag, and hang in the wa
ter.
For all salads have all dishes very
cold. The ingredients should also be
chilled Salads should not be stirred,
but the materials tossed with fork un-
til we'll mixed. Dressing and ingredi-
ents should not be all put together at
once, but added to each other gradually,
now bit of dressing, next little celery
and whatever else is used.

cHILD's DANCING FRocK.
Avoid Too Heavy Materials and Fash
ion Thin Stuffs Somewhat After
Costume of French Doll.


Dancing clothes plas an important
part in juvenile toggery. Few parents
now ignore the Importance of the
graceful accomplishment, which is
thought necessary to the healthy de.
velopment of young limbs.
In costuming the youngsters for the
dancing class, a certain athletic ease
OF dress is exacted by the better dan.
cling masters, Gowns for little maids
must be loose-hung, in fact, prefer
ably from the shoulders, and footwear
for the youngest of both sexes must
be heelless. Pretty dancing shoes are
the regulation ballet slippers, tied on
by narrow ribbons. ~
When considering the question Of
appropriate and pretty dancing attire
the first thing to be said is that gar.
ments should not be too warm. Many
teachers insist upon removal of fan.
nels during lessons, though warm WOO
jackets and knitted shawls are pro.
vided for resting moments. Parents
are requested to furnish these, even
during the summer months, as over.
heating and relaxed muscles afford a
fine field for colds.
Materials suggested for frocks for
first soires, especially for the tiniest
maids who require constant guidance
are wash lawns, made gay with en-
broideries, lace and ribbons. A French
lawn dress suggesting Mother Hubbard
shape, is one sort which displays the
necessary dancing looseness and in
fantile prettiness
The skirts of these charming little
frocks are variously trimmed at the
bottom, and hang from yokes of nu-
merous sorts, but certain French
doll quality pervades them all Marrow
laces or embroideries trim, with tucks,
the wide skirts, and below the short
puff sleeves there are sometimes bishor
undersleeves in a thinner texture
Fashioned on the same lines are some.
times seen little frocks of untrimmed
white or yellow pongee which, with

practical mothers for the earliest les
sons.

HE LIKES THE PRESIDENT
NJ. Witte Voices His Impression Of
President Roosevelt on His
First Meeting.

New York, Aug. 5.--M. White, the
Russian peace plenipotentiary, on his
return from his informal visit to Pres
ident Roosevelt at Oyster Bay, made
the following statement about the i'm
pressions he had received of the pres
ident on this, the first time he had
seen him:
81 have conceived the highest opin-
ion of Mr.. Roosevelt was particu-
larly struck by his energy and broad
mindedness. | feel it is good for the
United States to have so distinguished
a man at the head of it's executive, and
l fully appreciate the reasons that led
to the choice Of him for so responsible
and honorable post. l do not say
this with any desire to flatter the pres
ident or the American people. 1t is
my sincere conviction"

CLEANLINESS ESSENTIAL.
The Quick Cold Daily Bath with a
Hot Tubing Twicea Week Should
Keep One Brisk and Vigorous.

The thing to wish for is health With
that os your armor and your lance you
can make the boogies of life skip in
high order. Firm muscles healthy
glowing skin, eyes bright with energy
and ambition-these make the foun.
dation of the woman beautiful. Care.
full, sensible, becoming gowning plays
big part, so does the manner of hair
dressing and the thousand and one de-
tails of grooming, but health is the
first requisite and by far the most nee
essary one.
Scrupulous cleanliness is as essen.
tial to health as it is to ones good
looks. The body is constantly under.
going system of decay and renewal
The skin flakes off in tiny particles
and bathing assists this process.
More than this, bathing and vigorous
rubbing of the body is sort OF exer-
else that is decidedly beneficial. The
muscles are enlivened, the blood and
the flesh glows and tingles, the result
being clearer mind and refreshed
body.
Some women say that they have not
the vitality to withstand daily bath,
That is usually the case when the bath
is considered bother and too much
strength is expended in the scrubbing
and the rubbing. The most beneficial
bath is the quick one that is over
within three minutes. Such bath is
tonic. 1t is not necessary to get into
the tub. Merely go over the body
speedily, bathing away the dust and
secretions of the skin, rinsing quickly
and rubbing briskly until the skin
fairly tingles. A hot bath is necessary
not oftener than twice week. If one
is nerve tired, hot bath just before
going to bed will act as a soothing
restful comforter. Chicago Record

TWO governors

Koch Says Sooner Or Later the Pro-
hibitory Laws viii BE Enforced
In Kansas, and Intimates That
the Day May Not Be Far OR-NOt
Question of Temperance, But Law.

Dodge City, Kas., Aug. 5.-Govern-
ors' day at the Dodge City soldiers re-
union developed these two news fea-
lures:
Gov. Folk says the "lid" is on in
Missouri to stay as long as he Is
governor.
Gov. HOch says that, sooner or
later, the prOhibitory law will be en-
forced in Kansas, and intimates that
the day is not far off.
These declarations were made by the
governors in their addresses here.
Gov. Hoch spoke first. He was on
the morning programme. He remarked
that the laws made should be obeyed.
If the people fail, the officers should
enforce them, he said.
Sooner or later the temperance law
of Kansas will be strictly enforced"
said the governor. This is no bun
combe. Both Missouri and Kansas
have little rebellion on just now.
The law-abiding element will win the
battle"
Gov. Folk spoke in the afternoon.
After telling what great state Mis-
souri, is, and observing that the sun
never sets on a Missouri mule, he
launched out into a good citizenship
talk. He said the Missouri idea was
that the laws are made to be obeyed,
not to be ignored Missouri idea was
the first to apply the lash to the
boodler; the first to begin the enforce
ment of bribery laws. He related many
stories of corruption which were turned
up in st. Louis, and said that the law
abiding people could put the law vio-
lators to rout every time they set Out
to do 1t.
"The lawlcss element is loud
mouthed," said he But they dom
count for much when honest people be-
come aroused. 1t pays for man tc
go back to private life with a clear rec
ord rather than receive additional po
litical honors by trucking to the law
less element.

laws say they shall he closed, some
body has a graft That is sure. SOM

be enforced in the large cities, but

The desire expressed by the Japan
csc ENJOYS that the peace negotiations
shall be conducted in the English Ian
guage once more illustrates the spread
of this speech. For the past 300
years French has been the accepted
language of diplomacy among Euro
pean nations, although of late Eng
lsh has been freely used. The recent
ascendency of English is due not so
much to it's own vigor and elasticity as
to the more practical reason that it is
becoming almost universal language
and, therefore, carries expediency with

WAR between TWO STATES
Louisiana Naval Militia Captures
Two of Mississippi's Quaran-
tine Boats.

New Orleans, Aug. 5.-A bulletin
from Rigolets announces the capture
of the armed Mississippi quarantine
boat Tipsey by Lieut.. Ivey of the
Louisiana armed launch Nunez.
Commander Bostick of the naval
battalion, on board the Marie, has al
so captured the Mississippi quarantine
boat Grace.
After disarming and taking the
Grace's flag, the vessel was allowed to
join the Winona, the United States
revenue cutter which is in charge of
the Mississippi feet.
The capture of these two vessels
means that the war between the two
states is on in earnest, unless Missis-
sippi recedes from her position and
withdraws from Louisiana waters.

COL. WATTERSON

Arrives In New York From Europe,
With a Smile Like a

New York, Aug. 4.-Henry Waiter
son, of Kentucky, has once more
planted his foot upon his native heath,

Anyway, the colonel is home, and
glad of it. He has kind things to say
of Europe, too, many kind things, but
well, he had heard Of the mint julep
celebration which is to be held in his
honor.
Is it any wonder that the colonel
was delighted to be home and eager
to hear and tell in turn all the
news.
81 have come home with my wife
and daughter and two grandsons," said
the colonel as the White Star liner
Oceanic, on which he was passenger,
was being warped into her dock. 1--WE
have been on the other side for more
than nine months and have had real
ly delightful trip-delightful!
1--WE travelled in Spain, France, Ger
many and of course England" he went
on in the slow drawl that marks him
as the south's.
Europe is wonderful country, a
wonderful country, and inhabited by
great peoples. The longer was on
the other side the more deeply was I
impressed with this.
81 observed European aristocracy
pretty closely while was on the 9TH
er side, and l arrived at this conclu-
sion," went on the colonel as he
mounted his bobby.
"The foreign aristOcracy is of n
much better grade than the Ameri-
man article.
There aristocracy means lineage,
education, brains, a pride of family
and a 'noblesse oblige' that we don't
often find on this side. Here-well our
aristocracy ranges from bad whisky to
Standard Oil.
"On this matter of mint juleps," be-
gan the reporter.
Col. WattersOn's smile had all the
glow and warmth of u June sunset.
"Well, subj" was all that he said.
Some writer's of late have been ad-
vocating plenty of sugar and just
bruising the mint" explained the re-
| porter.
"Why bother with such creatures?"
asked the colonel. every gentleman
from the south knows the proper way
to prepare that beverage, sub, and we
must not expect too much from the
northerners."
