Popular Girls.

Everybody likes girls who do their
best to be pleasant and courteous at all
times, who do not repeat unpleasant
remarks made about you by other
girls; who, although they cannot boast
of spare penny, always look neat and
nice; who are lavish with their smiles,
and are sorry when they are obliged
to frown; who look out every day for
the happy things of life. who try to
jump over all the little ridges that
break up the smoothness of their path,
who are happy because they make peo-
pie about them see the sunshine; who
always have good word for every
body; and who appreciate the fact that
the world was not made for them alone,
and who do not always expect the best
it has to offer-Ex.

Let Us Be Kind.

to-heart talk found in the Woman's
department of Home and Farm.
The writer says, are we all as kind
as we should be? I say, no, and I am
sure a good man will give the same
answer. 1t is just as easy to be good
and kind as it is to be unkind Kind
ness is stored away in the heart, and
many of us let it stay there instead of
scattering it along LIES weary path
way and making the lives of others
brighter. | know some people are un
kind and hard-hearted, and it seems
that they can't help it, but it is be-
cause they have practiced it SO often
that it becomes natural with them. 1t
has crept gradually on them, and it is
hard to shake off, We should be very
careful what we say and how we say
it, for "a word once spoken is never
recalled"
Just think of the hearts wounded and
bleeding because of unl<ind1y acts and
cruel heart-breaking words. If there
is anything that causes my heart to
swell and brings tears to my eyes it is
cruelty and unkindness in any one
What does unkindness lead to-? Ill
temper, anger, hatred and perhaps
murder itself.
Parents should be kind to their chill
dren. Kind words and the rod oc-
casional1y are better than to get mad
and talk cruelty to them. have heard
of parents sending their children on an
errand, and because they didn't do just
right they would say "You little fool!
I ought to wear you outn' Now,
such as this doesn't please God, and
besides it sets bad example before the
little fellows, and really doesn't do
the good that kinder means would do.
Children should especially be kind
to their parents. We do not know
how long we will have them with us,
and when they are gone we will look
back and say: "Oh, if l had only
been kind and respectful to them, but,
alas it is too late now Daughters
that wish to treat their mother with
kindness will let her sit in the rocking
chair, and she will do the work instead
of sitting there herself, or perhaps
lounging around reading novels, and
grumbling if called on to do thing.
What is the happiness of our life
made UP Of? Courtesy, kindness,
pleasant words, genial smiles, friendly
letters, good wishes and good deeds.
There is nothing like kindness and
good deeds in this world A kind word
and pleasant voice are gifts easy to
give, and we should be liberal with
them. Kindness makes sunshine wher-
ever it goes. It finds its way to the
heart and soothes and comforts those
that are sad and lonely.
There is nothing like kindness and
good a happy, peaceful family, where
peace and kindness always reign.
Where father and mother are at peace.
and can say that their children are
kind, peaceful and respectful among
themselves, their parents and all others
with whom they come in contact.

Beaten Biscuit.

beaten biscuit more in preference to SO
much light bread There is a very
instructive article in July issue Of the
Ladies World on this subject, and we
take the liberty Of offering it to our
Florida women for discussion. 1t may
be more women use them than we
hear of. We will appreciate some in
formation regarding this part of cook
ing. The writer says:
In the minds of the majority of Vir
ginia housekeepers a glory seems to
hang about the name beaten-biscuit.
Upon reflection, one will see that there
is something both striking and up
lifting in the term, for upon the num-
Der of blows and upliftedness of the
mallet depends the lightness of the
biscuit
Beaten biscuits are made from dough
which is lightened solely by the pro-
cess of beating, containing as it does
neither egg nor other foreign ingre-
dent, such as baking powder or soda,
to tax the digestion; for this reason
they make an invaluable food for in
valids and young children.
Another advantage that this form of
bread has over others is that it re-
mains palatab1e for longer time. 1t
is customary for Virginia mothers with
young children at the summer resorts,
to have sent them from home boxes
Of beaten-biscuit, which can be kept
for two weeks or longer, provided they
are under the lock and key of tin
box, as the Virginia child's appetite
for beaten-biscuit is Unsuitable. Should
the biscuits lose their crispness, they
can be reheated, like crackers, and
will be improved by dipping the top
crusts in milk before placing in slow
oven.
The biscuit-block is really the sec
ton Of tree sawed in shape, and it is
found in most old-fashioned kitchens.
This board is best adapted to making
the queen of breads; but, lacking it,
any carpenter can supply the house
keeper with an eighteen by eighteen
inch hardwood board, two inches
thick, also a mallet of the same wood,
loaded with lead to the weight of seven
pounds.
incidentally, this ma11et may be used
for variety Of purposes, such as beat
ing steak and pounding ice, etc., and
it will prove to be an all-round good
investment
Should it be inconvenient to procure
such mallet, the hatiron may be used
to beat the dough, cutting it repeatedly
with the sharp edge.
An excellent formula for beaten bis
cult is as follows: Three pints of -four,
measured before sitting; one heaping
teacupful of butter and lard mixed; one
and half teaspoonfuls of salt Milk
enough to make stiff dough.
Mix salt in flour, rub shortening we'll
in with the hands, then add milk eau
tiously, as wet dough will produce
ugly, blistered biscuit when baked.
Work well until the dOuoh is Derfect1v

In his speech at Monroe before
the Press Association, Governor
Blanchard declared himself a tax
reductionist from away back. Par
aphrasing Grants famous remark
that 1.-THE only way to resume spe-
cie payments is to resume" he
said: "The way to reduce taxa
ton is to reduce it." The trouble
with Governor Blanchard is that
in his first dash ont of the reduc-
ton box, the taxes were raised
about 81 100000 in the aggregate
for 1905, and now New Orleans
alone is hit nigh on to one million
for 1906. The country is yet to
be heard from. Thus far his re-
duction plan has worked back

The Louisiana Press.

The twenty seventh annual con-
vention of the Louisiana Press
Convention at Monroe on the first
to the third of May, was one of the
most successful conventions ever
held by this association.
The literary programme proved
real treat, every paper read be-
fore the association was beautiful
and highly appreciated by the
newspaper people and the public.
The entertainment programme
was we'll selected and admirably
carried out, and every one of the
members of the press enjoyed to
the fullest extent the courtesies
and the kind hospitality of the
good people of the beautiful, grow
ing and progressive city of Mon
roe.
On the closing day of the ses-
sion at Monroe. the following Off
GERS were elected to serve during
the coming year: President j. w.

At the close of the meeting at
Monroe a special coach was wait
ing for the Press members at the
Queen and Crescent depot to take
the party to the historic city of
Vicksburg.
At Vicksburg the party visited
the National Cemetery and the
National Military Park, which
were the most interesting part of
this trip; there on the very spots,
Gen. Stephen ID. Lee, Gen. A. B.
Booth, Gen. Rigby and others
gave graphic description of the
bloody battle between the Federal
and Confederate troops during the
siege of Vicksburg.
There are already a large mum
Der of pretty monuments erected
by the Northern States in honor
of the Federal soldiers who have
died 80 bravely on this very spot
and many more are being erected,
and the commission of the militia
ny park appealed to the press of
Louisiana to impress upon the le-
gislature the duty of voting All ap-
preparation of at least 800, 900 to
erect a monument in this beauti-
ful park, in honor of the Louisi-
ana soldiers who have died 30 gal
lently on this bloody field, and the
Louisiana press adopted a unani-
nous resolution to that effect.
The next meeting of the associa-
ton will be held in Lafayette.
