To the Trustees Of the Methodist
Church.
Gentlemen
We want to donate some L. & M.
Paint to your church whenever they
paint.
The largest Methodist church in
Georgia expected US to use 100 gallons
of the usual kind of paint, they only
used 80 gallons L. & NJ. mixed with "a
gallons Linseed Oil.
It costs less to paint a house with L.
& M. than with other paint, because
painter mixes Linseed Oil fresh from
the barrel at go cents a gallon with L.
& NJ and doesn't pay $3.50 per gallon
for Linseed OIL as done if ready-for-use
paint is used. Also because the l.. &
M. Zinc hardens the L. & M. White
Lead and makes the paint wear like
iron.
L. & M. paint costs only $1.2O per
gallon.

What the Market Affords

Olive oil is a good substitute for
pork in baked beans, and much more
wholesome.
Try cold custard sauce, instead of
cream and sugar, with plain, hot, boiled
rice. r + .~. A-:..:.
Most salads should be dressed just
before serving, whether French dress
ing or mayonnaise is used. Celery or
lettuce wits if left in oil and vinegar.
Celery should not even be washed long
before serving, as it becomes rusty.
Potato salad is an exception to the rule.
Potatoes take up large quantities of
oil and need to be very we'll mixed with
whatever dressing is used. - +-@ .s
To make cucumber ribbons cut thick
slice from both ends of cucumber;
then cut crosswise in one-inch slices.
Out the slices round and round to form
ribbons, using a small, sharp vegetable
knife. Plunge into cold water and let
stand until they become crisp.
Spanish sweetbreads are delicious.
Parboil pair of sweetbreads and cut
in slices. Cook two tablespoonfuls but
ter with one-half shallot finely chopped,
one-fourth green pepper (freed from
seeds and finely chopped) and two to.
matoes, skinned and cut in pieces, ten
minutes. Add one cupful Of cold boiled
potatoes cut in cubes and the sweet.
breads. Sprinkle with salt and pep.

Mrs George w. Vanderbilt has estab-

estate, the object of which is to give
employment to women. The women
weave on hand looms wool texture
which is much like the English home

suits and gowns intended for hard wear.
A heavy all-wool cloth is also made,
suitable for draperies and curtains.

At Lullingstone castle, hartford, the
home Of Sir William and Lady Emily
Hart Dyke, a leathern bag of coins is
preserved which has a curious history.
It is a sort of matrimonial offertory
bag, for, it is a tradition that when the
heir marries, he and his bride should
place coin in it. What good this will
do any one is not apparent, but it
must be done all the same, and the
young people must on no account let
curiosity as to it's contents tempt them
to turn out the bag, for should the
money be counted dire misfortune will
befall them-at least, 50 folks say!

AN ATTRACTIVE VERANDA

A veranda is best when without per-
manent cover and furnished with avn
lngs SO that in winter the sun need
not be kept from the windows. On such
q veranda much Of the family's summer
life may be passed. =. ..~ -
Special rugs, chairs tables, ham
mocks and swinging seats are arranged
here daily with flowers and greens in
profusion. A hanging Japanese screen
or Venetian blinds are put up when
necessity requires.
. MANY persons nave a corner arranged
for breakfast. The afternoon tea table
also is brought out on it. The chairs
generally are Of willow and the cushions
covered with some cotton stuff which
will not smell of the damp. The flowers
are set out in pots Of brass or terra
Gotta or are arranged in boxes. Almost
always some scheme is followed. The
pink geraniums and the white are used
in England, especially in London,
around Hyde park. Nothing is much
more beautiful than nasturtiums. The
honeysuckle, being vine, requires a
support. It lends rich perfume and
brings the humming birds.
Porches upstairs are called loggias by
the many who adopt the italian fashion
These add an element Of beauty to most
dwellings and that indescribable air 81
refinement which one is apt to find only
among the highly developed. These
loggias are susceptible Of more init
mate arrangement than verandas.
The Minneapolis journal., 1906-07-07

Tomatoes may be sliced thin and
served with salt, pepper and vinegar
for breakfast, or sliced and strewn
with sugar and grated nutmeg for tea;
for. dinner they may be stewed or
boiled. Tomatoes may be preserved In
sugar, or as in catsup, when out Of
season. Those who like them declare
them to be excellent in each and every
form and dressing. To peel tomatoes
place in frying basket and plunge
them into boiling water; drain and peel.
An attractive dish to serve to an
invalid is made by whipping the whites
Of an egg very stiff, adding a few
grains Of salt, and arranging it on a
circular piece Of toasted bread which
has been dipped for an instant in boil
ing water. Make a depression in the
center, drop in the unbroken yolk, and
bake in a moderate oven till the white
is a delicate brown. Garnish with
parsley. ..lss .,. .zs
How to keep the Saturday supply
Of lettuce fresh is often a trying prob
lem. Do not keep it in water. Instead
wash the leaves carefully and wraE
them up in wet cloth, covering with
several thicknesses. Place on q plate
or in a large bowl until wanted FOL
use. The cloth should be kept wet. II
this way lettuce will keep fresh fo1
several days and in much better con
dition than when set In. water or OF
