From the Huckleberry County.

Dear Aunt Jennie Il have been
a silent admirer of Social Chat for
quite while, and am glad to see so
much said in regard to beautifying
the home. / think all of us girls
should try to keep our homes neat
and pleasant, not only for ourselves
but for others. Flowers help to
beautify any house, and We all can
have them if we will only try.
1 am also glad to see the emphasis
laid on domestic work. Some say it
isn't right for girls to learn to cook,
sew, or do any of the household du-
ties, but I think it not only a pleas
ant privilege, but duty to one and
all. If we never have to do, it, why
it won't hurt us to know how, while
on the other hand if we have it to
do and don't know how, there is mis-
cry for us and for others.
Mothers, learn your daughters
how; then they will be better fitted

on the analysis of food. the scientific
care of cattle and poultry. the cult
vation of vegetables and the making
OF butter and cheese. It is proposed
later to include a minor course in
nursing, cooking for the sick, sewing,
mending, etc. The tuition will be so
low that no one will be excluded.
The schools are especially intended
to benefit remote farming communi-
ties not easily accessible to perma-

OF The Progressive Farmer, it is
learned that the question of estab-
fishing travelling schools for farmers

clples of scientific housekeeping,

tated in Alsace-Lorraine. Such
schools are already in operation in
Baden, Bavaria, Thuringen and
Hesse, and are giving great satisfac-
uon. The teachers are all educated

government examinations. All ex-

over the top after putting in little
dishes for serving. Garnish with a
few green peas sprinkled over the top
and strips of red tomato. Of course

Sun Pickle.
Chop one large cabbage and six
larpe onions moderately fine. To two
quarts of vinegar add mixed spices
and salt to taste, tumeric enough
to color a very light yellow and four
tablespoonfuls of sugar. Put this
on the fire, barely letting it come to
the boil. Add the cabbage, onion and
one pod of red pepper chopped. Cover
the boiler closely and pull to one
side where it will simmer for ten
minutes. Do not boil, else it will be
soggy and not crisp. This is very
fine. JEANlE DEANS.

Aunt Jennie's Letter.

Dear Chatterers, I have been re-
iuvanated this week by many visits
from the young people. 1t makes me
recall many incidents of my own girl
hood and helps me to enjoy their
manifest pleasure on many trivial oc-
ro,ions. Then, too, a pleasant visit
from an erstwhile beloved pastor has
beIped us to appreciate manifold
blessings that have in our hurry
through life been overlooked or ac-
counted trivial.
Well. the young people have turn
ed their faces toward home and it's
loved ones. Some will return to
school in the early fall. Others have
taken their diplomas and will register
at once in life's larger school as stu
dents. You have proved that you are
capable of learning anything you
choose. Your diploma tells us that.
Now what will YOU study during all
those years which are to follow this
memorable one of 1905? The world
will know. for nature has few secrets,
and time reveals all things.
A bevy of school girls and boys
keep me in a whirl this week, and I
have only time to wish you pleas
ant vacation and hope that many of
YOU will remember to let the circle
have the pleasure of reading some of
those nice letters with which you can
favor us. if YOU will.
Our letters this week are all good.
Jeanne Deans could hardly write a
poor letter if she tried. Patsie talks
Interestingly of vacation pleasures.
and concludes with a serious sugges-
ton all our young PEOPLE would do
well to take to heart.
Brown Eyes joins us this week.
| agree with her as to our girls
learning household duties. No sem
Sible man wants a wife who knows
nothing save books and how to be
entertaining. While these things
add to happiness they are not sat-
isfying when a fellow comes home
hungry and tired. Life is real, life
is earnest" and man was not Great
ed to subsist on breath alone. As
you say, if she learns but does not
have to do these things herself, it
will be easier for her to have them
done. Half the trouble with hired
helE is caused by the utter lack of
such knowledge by the women who
pretend to keep house. Yes, girls,
learn all you can about domestic
affairs and some day you will be glad
that you did.

Some Vacation Reflections and Some
Vacation Advice.

Vacation Advice.
Dear Aunt Jennie Won't you
give me a seat right near you for
just few minutes? / am at home
again on my vacation. All! how free
L feel from the restraints and re-
spOnsibilities of the school-room,
training the "young idea' in the
paths of knowledge. That rollicking
son0ster in yonder tree seems to be
greeting me with that sweet song he
is singing. Yes, little bird, 1 feel
about as free as you do now. And
there are now hundreds of others that
are leaving colleges and other schools
daily that can say the same thing.
All! how delightful it is to gCi
home and find so many nice little
''toothsome" things brought to light
by that dear mother just for "you."
Was there ever such wonderful home
made sausage found in a college or
clearinghouse. or such golden (reaD
butter, or glass after glass of rich
(not skimmed), cool milk just from
the dairy? Not to say anything about
the delicately Drowned biscuits, hot
rolls; not cold light-bread three days
old, and beef-tough beef-until you
almost wish there wasn't any such a
thing as a COW. No, there is no more
of that now.
Surely you never noticed mamma
bein0 such a fen cook before. All
this is a feast for the gods All the
rich milk, golden honey, fresh, sweet
butter, chicken Drowned to a turn
delicious biscuits, cakes, pies; great
jars of jam, preserves. jellies; pickles
of all kinds, and many other things
too numerous to mention, placed be-
fore you now.
Sometimes you see mother looking
at you in wonder as still you feast
after all are Throughout are at
home now and can eat little while
longer without being thought greedy
or unmannerly. No, we never fully
appreciate all these things that the
dear mother has been doing for us
since we were little tots-not until
we measure shoulder to shoulder with
the cold world. Then how downy the
old home nest feels, when you come
back and fold your wings to rest
awhile.
Now, boys and girls. let me whisper
just one little word to YOU about
your vacation: Don't let mother wait
on you so much, but you, whose
limbs are young and strong, take the
burden off her shoulders as much as
you can. That gentle hand that can
heal the throbbing ache quicker than
any medicine, and that smiling face
that always has a sweet welcome for
you, will not always be there. Give
her the needed rest during your vaca-
ton, and in after years you will al
ways be glad that you needed this lit
tie piece of advice. The work will
not hurt you, and the rest will almost
make mother young again.
/ would like to exchange some good
books with the cousins. My address
is with Aunt Jennie.
Will come again if Aunt Jennie
will let me. "PAISlE.

The suit is based on an alleged

Greenough was to receive one-quart-
