Currant Buns: Take one pint of milk
that has been scalded and then cooled,
soften cake Of compressed yeast in
half cupful Of milk, and then put
both together and stir in about three
cupfuls of flour, beat until very smooth,
then cover and set away to rise. When
light, add half a cupful of sugar, half a
cupful of softened butter, one teaspoon
full of salt, three eggs, one cupful of
cleaned currants and about three cup
fuls of -four. Knead until elastic and
set to rise. When doubled in bulk,
roll out into sheet and cut into
rounds. Put the rounds in the baking
pan and let them rise until they are
nearly as large again, then bake about
twenty-five minutes. When they are
done, brush them over with a little
boiling water in which a teaspoonful
of cornstarch has been dissolved, and
then sprinkle thickly with granulated
sugar and return to the oven to glaze.
This can be repeated again If the glaze
is not thick enough. The buns must
be thoroughly baked before they are

# better conditions they are casting in

Of better conditions they are casting in
the right direction. A farmer with
five or six COWS might as well realize
from Sl5 to $40 month, which will
help largely in meeting current ex-
penses. One patron of the Del .Norte
creamery is paid $50 month for milk
and this beats wheat farming all hol-
low. 1t is not difficult matter to de-
termine that the most prosperous

where commercial milk is sold. Busi-

The strengthen man is in proper
tion to the feelings which he curbs and
subdues, and not those which subdue
him. The man who receives fragrant
insult and answers quietly; the man
who bears hopeless daily trial and
remains silent; the man who, with
strong passions, remains ehaste; or
who, with quick sense of injustice,
can refrain himself and remain calm
these are strong men. John the Baptist
waxed strong because, from the earliest
dawn of thought, he was taught the
necessity of refusing things which, in
themselves, might have been permis-
sible, but for him were impossible.

household medicine. They are un-
doubtedly very excellent for bilious
ness. Lemons, however, should not be
taken in their pure state, as their acid'-

ward from the center of q coal basin
transitions in the nature of the coal
will be observed az the work pro.
crosses toward the outcrop. At the
center the coal will be black aud lus-
trous, and 10 colors are seen. As the
outcrop is approached the peacock
colors begin to appear, owing to the
light oxidation which the iron sulph.
ide in the coal has undergone. Still
closer to the outcrop the iron coating
assumes the we'll known yellow and
brown colors. The degree to which the
iron sulphide is oxidized Is an indica-
ton also as to the general character
Of the coal, the volatiles having been
dissipated as the oxidation proceeded.
The appearance of peacock colors is
an indication Of inferior
quality, while, as is we'll known, the
outcrop coal is practically worthless.

They receive from the actual stealers,
who are mostly officials. a resident
