of the liberal good roads law now in
force in Delaware which appropriates

ber of years to each of the ten districts

work to build permanent roads and

according to the operations already
begun, commences at the limits of the
town of Greensboro and will extend
toward Oakland. The second mile is
being built from fredericksburg toward
Houston's Branch. The road will be
nine feet in width at the time of con-

SALAD SUGGESTIONS.
In Summer This Dish Should Be
Served Daily and Both Condiments
and Oil Carefully Added.

At this time Of the year the salad bowl
is felt to be an appropriate, nay q nee
essary addition to any meal. It Is recon-
mended generally as kind Of tonic In
pleasant form, but whether 1t proves
wholesome or not depends largely on
the skill Of the salad maker.
Speaking generally, one might say
Of all salad materials In their natural
state that they are antagonistic to diges-
ton, and that II they are to suit the au-
tocratic powers within they must be nrst
subjected TO careful treatment. Hence
we rely upon oil to smooth away din
culties, and upon condiments to stir
and stimulate the digestive energies.
+ The chef and the bourgeois, 1t Is said.
will make a salad out Of anything. but
they use only one kind Of vegetable, a.
d rule, not @ combination, seasoning it
suitably and favoring 1t with herbs and
spices.
The arrangement and dressing OF sal
ads makes subject worthy Of study and
is not a duty that should be rslegated
to the kitchen at all, notes an authority
In the London Queen.
OF course, the cleansing, drying and
breaking up of the lettuce, on endive, or
eress must be done there. likewise the
mincing of herbs and Of onions; but
there made ready, the mixing OF dress
ing, be 1t mayonaise or only the simple
one we call French dressing, should be
undertaken by skilled hands, since on
this part so much depends. Moreover,
1t needs to be done at the moment, never
at some convenient time before hand.

LOVE is BLIND.

Ever since Adam met Eve in the park, way
back when Eden was rev,
And took no heed Of the garments she wore
looked only in eyes that were blue
A saw has been rife from then until now
tits true, I'm sure you will find
That nature has planned mantle that
falls and renders love totally blind.
You see a young man who's deeply involved
in passions that tangle his heart,
He's blind as a bat, and never can see the
danger in Don Cupids dart.
He scarcely can. eat-his lessons are hard
his play is miserable grind
Declares he can't see the use Of such things,
since love has rendered him blind
The man who escaped the darts in his
youth and thought his heart was ina
mune,
Oft catches the malady later In life and
falls in a passionate swoon.
Like measles or mumps, intended for
youth. the fever is harder confined;
He's silly at times. does things he would
not had love not rendered him blind.
And when an old man with snow In his hair
Is stricken, no mercy is shown
He's full Of elixir Of life and declares he's
a king on a vigorous throne.
He puts the young boy clear out OF the
game-the middle aged man Is be-
hind
He's ahead in the race for spreading 1t on
since love has rendered him blind.
But why do you scorn the man who's in
love-why laugh at the capers he
plays?
Ten chances to one you had 1t yourself
some time in your palmiest days.
It's malady sweet hat comes to US all and
makes human hearts more kind
rye had 1t myself. 1 know what 1t Isl
rather enjoy being blind.

RHoDoDENDRoNs WASTED.
Native Woods Are Devastated to
Plant the Millionaire's
Hillsides.

There is one plant which everybody
knows and appreciates, viz, rhododen-
dron. Small wonder that every million
aipe wants to own hill side and cover II
with rhododendroRs, for they are the
most gorgeous towering hardy scrubs
the world has ever known, says the Gar
den Magazine. They have no fragrance
or sentiment, as rose has; the individ-
ual flowers are only one inch and half
across, and the clusters may contain
less than a dozen blossoms, but when
you get a solid bank Ave feet high and
fifteen feet across, Of rhododendron
flowers set off by their thick, waxy, lus-
trcus, dark green, immortal-looking foil

why people plant them In such guam
tiies-by the carload!
But alas! they perish by the carload.
too. And one of the cruelest things a
man can do is to drag up rhododendroRs,
azaleas or laurel from the woods, trans
plant them with no more care than de-
ciduous shrub receives, put them In full
sunlight and watch them sickeH and die.
All these bread-leaved evergreens are
slow growers, shade lovers, haters Of
stagnant moisture, extremely sensitive
to drought and sure to suffer If they are
exposed to full sunshine during sudden
warm spells in winter.

IN COOKING VEGETABLES.
Many Vegetables Improved BY Stand
ing in Cold Water Before
Putting On Stove.

Nearly ali vegetables are improved
BY being immersed In cold water for
q little while before cooking, and near
ly all are injured by boiling with fresh
meats. Water that has boiled long

flavor Of vegetables cooked In 1t. The
teakettle should be washed out daily.
and water should be- freshly brought
to the boiling point when used fer cook
ing purposes You would hardly think
of using the same vessel twice fer cook
Ing without q washing out. but the yes
sci in which we cook our water IL used
In many families day after Day, week
after week, with no thought Of securing
or cleaning out. The dirty inside OF the
tea kettle cannot but affect the taste Of
the water, and this, in turn, must Inn
part its tainting to the food which 10
cooked In 1t. Water absorbs q great
deal of the surrounding atmosphere,
and whenever possible, freshly drawn
water should be used for all cooking
purposes. Green vegetables should be
put over the fire In water that has just
reached the boiling point, and should
be slightly salted--one tablespoonful OF
salt to two quarts Of water. To do away
with the disagreeable odor arising from
boiling cabbage, onions, etc., very
small pinch of cayenne pepper may be
used. All vegetables should be fresh
ly gathered, IL possible, when used.
Stale or wilted vegetables can never be
quite so nicely cooked 81 those that are
fresh.-The Commoner.

superauous Mathematics.

A story Is told Of certain famous
inventor who Is fortunate enough to
be able to employ a large stan of en-
gineers and mathematician to aid him
In the solution Of knotty problems.
Some time ago the Inventor desired to
find the cubic capacity of certain yes
sci of unsymmetrical proportions, and
asked his mathematician to solve the
problem. AS the story goes, the
spent weeks of time,
filed their books with their ealcula-
tons and finally presented what they
said was a close approximation to the
true result Thereupon the famous in
Ventor placed the vessel on q plat
form scale, filed It to the brim with
water, obtained its weight when full
and when empty, and IN few minutes
be had a result as good as the mathe-
maticians-for that particular vessel.

IN THE sEwINa-RooM.

The finest undergarments are sewed
entirely by hand; but for ordinary wear
an improvement upon entirely machine
made garments can be made by the ap-
plication OF some hand work.
Bindings stitched to garments on tho
wrong side by the machine, then turned
TO the right side, and felled down by
hand, laying and telling each gather,
make bands that are neat and quickly
put on. Common flannel skirt bands are
neatly and quickly made by doubling
the band and basting 1t to the right
side Of the garment, making narrow
seam and stitching the same on the ma
chine, and then overeasting the seam
finely.
A great Improvement can be made
over the old way OF basting on ruihes
that are to be sewed on by hand by pin
ming the rhaie to the garment every inch
or two, using fine pins and placing them
vertically up and down between the
gathers. This does away with the ir-
regular arrangement OF the gathers
01ren seen on ruffies.
All buttonholes for underwear should
have bar on the outside as we'll as on
the inside ends. Without this they
WI tear and ruin the band.
When pulling threads for hem-stitch-
ing, especially on fne cloth, pull out
one thread the entire length of the
cloth, then draw out for an, inch the
required number Of threads; by this
means no mistake can be made In the
number drawn.
Hamburg may be inserted in the
hens of underwear by first cutting
the hem, this to be used afterward as
facing and placing the right side
Of the garment and the right side Of
he edging together. Put on the facing
and haste the three parts together and
stitch; then turn up the facing and
hem to the garment. Many women
fell the facing at top and bottom; the
work looks better the first way, and
there Is one telling less to be made

VOGUE OF EMBROIDERY.
Blouse Of the Day Trimmed with
Embroidery and This Trimming
Comes in Wonderful. Variety.


Embroidery Is the chosen trimming
for the modish blouse, and is more
often thaa not accompanied by inset
kalenciennes. Naturally machine en-
broidery Is resorted to FOR the cheaper
waists and sometimes It Il really quite
pretty IL artistioaliy designed and
done on fine material, bat, Of course,
hand embroidery Is the height Of dain-
tiness and modishnsss.
Openwork embroidery, heavy padded
embroidery, delicate tendril and spray
embroidery, all are used by the blouse
makers, and often several different
kinds OF embroidery are combined upon
one blouse, the unique Of openwork
English embroidery and heavy padded
embroidery being especially liked.
The fine embroidery such as Is used
upon baby clothes Is usually associated
with inset yalenciennes upon the
sleeves OF null, batiste or lawn; but on
some models 1t forms tnedrils and buds
around large flowers of padded work.
Little panels or medallions OF such DEL
icate embroidery. shaped to fit round
shoulders and throat inset with real

are selected for these, with heavy cluny

of the Irish lace will wash well, but the

This Irish crochet has obtained a
vogue hardly anticipated by even its
most ardent admirers. The Irish
makers cannet begin to meet the de-
mand. and even though lacemakers all
over the continent are hard at work on
it they cannot turn out enough.-N. Y.
