A few small biscuits easily made with
Royal Baking Powder. Make them
small-as small round as a napkin ring.
Mix and bake just before the meal.
Serve hot.
Nothing better for a light dessert
than these little hot biscuits with butter
and honey, marmalade or jam.
You must use Royal Baking Powder
to get them right.

1etin.


Reports of cotton shedding come
from all parts of the State. Cotton
rust is reported to be very bad in
Johnston County. In the eastern
district cotton is opening quite gen
orally; also to come extent in the
central and western districts where
it is still blooming. While some re-
port very good and average crops,
many report a small or a one-half
crop.
Young and late corn was damaged
by rain to a great extent, and is
firing in some places. In some sec
tions the crop is promising; but
many report small crop. 1t is not
maturing well, and more sunshine is
needed for this crop throughout the
State.
Tobacco is still being cut in central
and western districts; in most places
curing is progressing nicely, and a
good average crop will be realized.
Tobacco is firing very fast in Per-
son County, and is being cut and
cured as fast as possible. Worms
are injuring tobacco in Yadkin
County.
The pea crop is looking fine all
over the State. Turnips are com
ing up, and doing we'll, they are still
being sown in the west. Bugs are
injuring turnips and cabbages in
Davidson County. The resetting of
strawberry plants is in progress
throughout the east and central por-
tions, and the plants are living and
looking we'll. Much hay and fodder
has been destroyed by the wet wealth
er; in some localities fodder is still
being cut, and much of it has been
saved. Peanuts are looking we'll
fruit almost a complete failure
Sweet and white potatoes generally
reported as a fine crop. Farmers are
plowing land for wheat.

The OminOus Owl.

It's an odd thing, but there are a
number of people who have a distinct
antipathy to the screech owl and can
not listen to Il single burst of its
hilarity without shuddering The
screech owl is supposed by the negroes
on southern plantations to be in direct
communication with all the ghosts
and giants of the forests. He plays
a great part in the more weird folklore
stories of the darkies. \ funny super
stition in regard to the screech owl is
that if you will take your shoe or slip
per off your left foot the first time you
hear an owl laugh and turn the shoe
sole upward on the floor and place your
"stockin foot" on the bottom of the
shoes sole the owl will stop laughing
and fly for ten miles without rest

Mixed Types.

Some years ago the editor of a down
east newspaper undertook to compli-
ment an eminent citizen as "a noble
old burgher, proudly loving his native
state" but the neatly turned compli-
ment came from the compositors hands
"a hobby old burglar, prowling round
in a naked state" This was as per-
verse and shocking as the blunder in
the message Ernest Renan had occa-
sion to telegraph across the English
channel on the subject of a proposed
lecture by him in Westminster abbey.
The subject as written by him was
"The Influence of Rome on the Forma-
ton of Christianity" 1t was announc-
ed in England as The Influence of
Rum on the Digestion of Humanityw-
Saturday Evening Post.

How Jayanese Settle auarrelr.

The Javanese manner of settling
Quarrels is quite original. w en- one
man has offended another the injured
party gives notice that he is angry by
drawing in the sand before the door
of the offender circle with straight
Line across it, indicating that his az
fiction. which would have been eter-
nal. has been cut in twp Friends of
b3tA parties then shut them up. They
par,ey awhile, then pretend to he born
ugain, prattle as little Chi dren and final
ly as men become reconciled and en-
brace Should one be refractory and
refuse to be conciliated he is ostracized
by the community so effcctually that
he is soon brought to terms. 1t is just
possible that our enlightened citizens
might consider this method better than
knockdown arguments and certainly
much cheaper than going to law.

DR.. Theodore Gill of the Smithsonian
institution in calling attention to the
misnaming of our native fish by early
settlers instanced among others the
trout The pilgrims. finding in New
England streams a fish that reminded
them of the trout of England, gave it
the same name, although IZaak Wal
ton would have told them that it was
not a trout, but char. In Maine land
locked salmon and in certain lakes an
other salmOnid fish were also called
trout. In the south the name trout
was given to black bass. In California
a peculiar fish was named trout, appar-
emily for no other reason than its pos
session of spots. The CHA river trout
is not trout at all.

Berlin is at its best at night. 1t
has discovered the secret OF electric
lighting. and when people step out
from their offices and shops at s and Q
o'clock at night it is into an enchanted
city. The solid palaces, the monstrous
statues, the enormous houses and wide
spaces of the long and stately streets
are then soft and gracious with a fairy
radiance. 1t is a city not only Of pros
perity. but Of pure delight. The heav
mess of the buildings and the rigidity
of their lines are blurred and softened.
In this clear northern air the million
lamps blazing from the walls of houses,
shining across the interminable streets
and glowing in a straight line down
the whispering avenues. have some
thing of the magic gentleness and sen
suous inspiration of an Arabian story.
You begin to think Berlin is the great
est city in the world.

Tea Houses In Japan.

In Japan nourishment is to be OBJ
tanned by the traveller chiefly at the
picturesque and omnipresent tea houses
scattered all over Japan. When tour
lists stop at one of these places the
runners" who carry the jinrikishas,
battle their own feet and wash their
mouths with cold water, after which
they are served with their meals on
the benches outside the tea houses.
Their meal, which they eat with avidi
ty, consists of salt fish, rice, pickles
and a soup made of almost everything
Odious. After they have eaten they
will smoke tiny pipes, with only three
whiffs for each filling. Next comes the
delicious nectar, world famed, and Of
this cup which cheers, but not inebri-
ates,'' foreigners also are always glad
TO partake. 1t is tea (chal and when
brewed by the japanese is perfection.
A pretty tea house girl presents it on
lacquer tray, bringing with it china
or bamboo charcoal holder and ash pot.
