and coarse songs of the street And
every mother, if she thought of its
Importance, might be putting good
seed there. Then, too, childhood is
the time to put in the thoughts that
are to govern the life. We never for
get what we learn then. A chance
speech will bring back, word for word,
the Psalm we learned at mother
knee, the little poem in the old school
reader, the lines of the classic that
father taught us to love. Blessed is
the child that has such heritage, and
unfortunate indeed is the one who has
only trash in the stOrehouse of his
youth.
The childs mental environment
must be determined by the mother,
and his first lessons must come from
her lips. The mother should store her
mind with selections from the Bible,
with poems worth a lifelong remem-
brance, and with good stories. She
can recite these to the child before it
can ever comprehend the words. OF
course a small child should never be
required to learn anything, but every
one knows that a child does learn
without effort what it hears often.
As the child grows old enough to read,
the mother can still exercise care
about it's books. A mind thus nurtur-
ed to maturity will reject the vile and
weak in literature

A New Corn Bread.
Editor Household Department:

Editor household department.:
l have been trying a time-hOnOred
recipe for making corn bread lately
and it is giving our family such salts
faction L pass it on to you, together
with another | am going to expert
ment with.
The first recipe is as follows:
Sift one pint of fresh meal into
bowl or pan and season with salt.
Have some boiling hot water ready to
pour on meal until very thin batter
is made. Set away for several hours,
when ready to prepare for dinner,
heat cooking spoon of lard hot and
pour into batter which has become
thick, thin with more hot water and
fry as the griddle in small cakes,
which every one will pronounce sweet
er than nuts.
The other recipe, l found i'm one of
my magazines and offer it to your
readers believing it will be an i'm
provement over my first recipe.
"Sift one pint of white Southern
meal into a bowl and in the center
add a rounding tablespoonful of short
ening and Il pinch of salt. Pour very
nearly cupful of boiling water over
the meal to mOisten it, and set it
aside, covered, for half an hour Then
whip up one egg, white and yoIk to-
gether, and add two tablespOonfuls of
milk. Stir this into the meal, and
drop by spOOnfuls into a hot creased
pan for baking. They resemble .merin-
CUES when baked, and require
moderate oven. Excellent for break

Four Good Recipes.

SauSage.-Let me advise you to
have your own sausage grinder and
make your own sausage meat, for you
are then sure that it will be appetiZ-

upon it. These proportions will be
found right: 10 one pound of lean
pork add one saltspOOnful of pepper
and one teaspOOnful each of salt and
sage. Mix thoroughly, and when
ready to use form into fiat cakes like
Hamburg steak, and fry in an iron
pan. They should be thoroughly done.
Buckwheat Cakes.-I5e particular to
secure the best buckwheat, as much of
it is adulterated with corn meal.
Pour one quart of cold water into a
stone jar or deep crock. Add one tea
spoonful OF salt and three and three
1Ourths cups of buckwheat and rub

THOUGHTS FOR THIS WEEK.

Live for something. Do good and
leave behind you monument of viz
tue that the storm of time can never
destroy. Write your name in kind
ness, love and mercy on the hearts
of thousands you come in contact
with, year by year; you will never be
forgotten. Your name, your deeds,
will be as legible on the hearts you
leave behind as the stars on the brow
of the evening. Good deeds will shine
as the stars of heaven
