Midsummer Desserts.

For marshmallow ice-cream use
half a pound of marshmallows, cut in
quarters, to one quart of vanilla
cream, stirring them in lightly after
the dasher has been removed. An
attractive serving is made by adding
a little pink vegetable coloring to
a white cream beaten firm, mixing
1T through in streaks. Put a large
spoonful into tall glasses, add a
spoonful of whipped cream and place
on it a maraschino cherry cut in
quarters, with bit of cream in the
centre. Bits of angelica suggest a
green leaf to the cherry.
The rule for fruit punches is half
a cupful of sugar to a quart of
liquid, if the beverage is not frozen,
otherwise twothirds of a cupful is
required. As is the case with lemon
ade, ices. and sherbets, sugar syrup
rather than crude sugar is better for
sweetening, but on no account should
fruit juice be cooked for punch.
Lemon juice, even in a small quaint
ity, is indispensable for punch.
A novel way to serve punch is in a
block of ice. With hot irons sufici-
ent is melted to make bowl of the
required size. The ice is put on
napkin-covered tray and garnished
with ferns and flower sprays. For a
currant and raspberry sherbet use
one and a half cupfuls of currant
juice to half a cupful of red rasp-
berry juice with a quart of water
and one pint of sugar. A good frappe
is made from four cups of water, two
cups of sugar, two cups of orange
juice and the juice of two lemons

The Threat of the Fruit Car Monopoly.

The threat of the private car

Charlotte Observer.
There's got to be a new declaration
of independence in this country, and
we'd as well come along with it. That
4 greedy and rascally corporation OF
Chicago should be able to say abso
mlcly what the people of this great
section shall receive for their pro-
,Iuce. if indeed they allow it to be
sold at all, is unlike what should be
in this country. There are three
schools of so-called craftsmanship in
the United States now. The domi-
uant one is represented by the lead
mo principles of the Republican
Party. which in substance is, "Give
the trusts and frenzied financiers and
all representatives of large capital
whatever they want and let the peo
rlc take whatever the cormorants
choose to give" The school which
stands next to this is the one of pom
dcrous but obsolete theory, repre-
sented by men of Mr.. Cleveland's
kind. 1t can be summed up in the
idea Of whatever is right-vested in
tcrests-don't disturb them-they are
As they should be-thousands of peo-
ple live in tenements unfit for healthy
dogs-they have always lived there
that's the place for them. The
last school is the militant crowd, like
Tom Watson. They are for some
thing better and don't know exactly
what it is, but are not afraid to
move for fear the house will tumble
down OH them. When the people
have become sufficiently exasperated
they are going to take up with the
latter crowd and something will be
doing. We dare not think how long
it will be before this time arrives, for
the longer it is delayed the more
lively will be the results.-Monroe

The Joys of Inland Bathing.

Quiet inland bathing offers you no
such extravagant opportunities to be
a poseur. If the water is warm, you
loll in it at your ease; your mind IS
soon stupefed by the sensuousness in
which you are enfolded; the interest
of your sleepy eyes does not extend
beyond the gentle ripples that widen
away from the slow, submerged
strokes of your arms. After while
you roll over on your back and
drowsily, execute at intervals a Ian
guild "shoo fly leg motion, while you
look drowsily up into the void. Now
and then you will raise your arms
and flap them down through the wa
ter like a pair of sweeps; it is only
a tired sort of effort. And finally,
in the supreme abandonment of in
dolence, you lay your head back, far
back, until the water creeps up
about your eyelids; you stretch out
legs and arms motionless, and lie,
breathing TRANQUILITY, sensible of no
other movement in the world than

eff you had two pigs, would you
give one of them to Gods causeg"
"No, I wouldn't; and you have no
right to ask me when you know I
have two pigs"
1t is a great deal easier to say you
would give fifty horses to the Lord
when you haven't any, than to say
you'll give one pig when it. is half
your present possessions. Yet it is
the giving of ones property that
counts more than the prospective
giving out of ones abundance.
1t is easy to be willing to give
what we have not got. Probably if
that man had owned a hundred
sheep, he would have said: off I
had a thousand, I would give half of
them; but cannot spare any of the
hundred" Liberality does not al
ways grow in proportion to pros

the slight fux and slip of the water
upon your heaving chest. Then may
you realize, perhaps, something of
the larks sensation when, with wings
outspread, it hangs suspended be-
tween earth and sky. He who has
never thus suspended himself idly
in still water, with fathoms below
him and infnity above, has not ex-
perienced one of the sensuous de-
lights of existence. Unfortunate

that there is nothing better than bed

Nothing is eternal but that which
is done for God and for others. That
which is done for self dies. Perhaps
it is not wrong, but it perishes. You
say it is pleasure-wel, enjoy it.
But joyous recollection is no longer
Joy. That which ends in self is NOR
tai. That alone which goes out of
self into God lasts forever.-Fred-

A SIMPLE SAW MILL.

The fewer parts there are in any
thing, the less likely it is to get out
of order. That is self-evident. And
when an article is simply made and
yet does the same and more work
than a complicated machine, the
ideal is closely approached.
A close examination leads us to be-
lieve that the ideal saw mill is pro-
duced bv the DeLoach Mill Mfg.
Co.,, Box 9O2, Atlanta, Ca, whose
advertisement appears in another
column. 1t is simple, strong and
durable. and does as much and as
good work as any other mill of which
we have knowledge. The catalogue
of this firm is we'll worth having.

Eclipse of the Sun Next.

An eclipse of the sun will occur
August 80. 1t will be total eclipse,
but will be visible in North America
only III the eastern half of the con-
tlnent. 1t will not be visible west of
line drawn from Fort Belknap,
Montana, to Indianola, Texas. The
eclipse will be total at sunrise in
Manitoba, and the shadow will sweep
across the Atlantic, turning some
what southwark to the Spanish coast
near Cape Finisterre. Crossing
Spain. the shadow will traverse the
Mediterranean, enter the African
desert, pass the Nile near Assau and
naily leave the earth somewhere in
Arabia in less than three hours after
II touches the earth in Canada. The
duration of the total phase will be
greatest in Spain, about three and
tlihree-Guarter minutes. In Labrador
me totallty will last about two and a
malt minutes. The eclipse will end at
''o' a. m. by standard, central time.

MEETING.

Last night the committee which has charge of receiving the congressional party. met at the Mesa Cf-y bank, pursuant to a call from the chairman.
 The purpose of the meeting was to make arrangements for providing a supper and reception for the guests upon their return from Roosevelt, which will. be tomorrow or Thursday afternoon.
 The committee. Chairman Waring, w. J. LeBaron, J. E. c. Jordan. H. L.. Chandler and J. F. Kelly, secretary, talked over the situation pretty thor oughly and appointed assisting com mites to help them.
 A supper will be given the party at the Alhambra hotel, Thursday after noon at four o'clock, after which they will adjourn to Dr. Chandler's lawn and an informal reception will take place.
 To this informal affair every man, woman and child are urged to be pres ent, irrespective of creed. color or pre- vious servitude. By this kind of d demonstration the people can impress on the travelling party, how we feel toward them and our position in re- gard to statehood. If you don't want to be tied to New Mexico come out and tell these people so, and who knows what the result may be? It might be that the action of this one town should turn the tide in favor of Ari- zona.
 At the lawn speeches will be made by the different members of the party. If no interference occurs, Sena tor Flint of California, will speak on the statehood question. He is a newly elected senator and as yet has not in the haUse of congress. But never taken his seat in congress. But never theless, he is an able champion of Ari- zona and believes in single statehood.
