RAILWAY WORK IN AFRICA.
Rapid Progress in New Construction
 Opening Mineral Fields.

Next to the Cape to Cairo line the most important railroad now in con struction in Africa is that which will connect Lobito bay, on the Atlantic with the mineral fields of Katanga, in the southeast corner of the Congo. It is being built by the Tanganyika Con- sessions, limited, a British company which holds a concession from the Congo government of an area in Ka- tanga 60,0C0 square miles in extent, or about One-thirteenth of the entire domain of. the Free State. The line will be HOO miles m length, the long est east and west road yet projected in Africa.
 Fifty miles of it have been com- pleted from Lobito bay, which affords a fine harbor a little north of Benguel- la, in the Portuguese colony of Ango- la. Many hundred men are now build ing the second section. 200 miles iong,

COOKING WITH SOUR MILK.
Vigorous Beating Necessary to Make
 1t Mix Smoothly.

Some cooks decry the use of sour milk cookery, because of the difficulty of mixing it smoothly with other in gradients, and a bit of sour curd is a decidedly unpleasant thing to meet in a corn cake or muffin. This is obviat- ed by few vigorous whirls of the egg beater in the bowl or pitcher which contains the sour milk. The curds and whey are thus smoothly mixed, and the thick milk can be poured from one dish to another as easily Gs cream.
 The proper proportion of soda is one-half of level teaspoonful to each cuDful of thick sour milk. As gas be- gins to escape as soon as the acid meets the soda, the latter should not be dissolved in the milk, but like bak- ing powder should be sifted with the flour.

For Cleaning Kid Gloves.

This recipe may be applied to the most delicate tints and there is no odor; it is more desirable than narh- tha or gasoline.
 Put the gloves on the hand and then take a piece of white flannel and moisten it very slightly with sweet milk.
 Rub on gently little piece of castillo soap and carefully go over the soiled gloves until clean. Then rub with dry flannel cloth.

MATTERS OF GENERAL INTEREST
 TO THE HOUSEWIFE.
Best Way to Furnish and Decorate the Bedroom-American Cooks Not Alive to the Value of .-
 ChiVes-Recipes.

A simple bedroom is most desira- ble, and the most comfortable. Large closets are a great convenience Un- de- one of the windows a box can 0e built in which shirtwaists may be kept, and also serve as a seat Mir TOTS may be set into the walls, framed to match the woodwork
 If the walls are in good condition 1t is better to have them painted delicate tint, though it gives a room cold appearance. Nothing, however. is as sanitary or economical If the walls are painted, the hangings and furniture coverings should be figured. If lowered or figured paper is used then the material for draperies and coverings should be plain. In some bedrooms both wall paper and hang ings are of the same design.
 The floors, of course, should be of hardwood or be painted It is possi- ble then by removing the rugs and wiping up the floor with a damp cloth occasionally to keep the room free from dust. The rag rugs now so pop ular are desirable for bedrooms, for they can be washed without much trouble.
 'The Making of a Housewife" says that few American hOusekeepers know the value of chives. English and French cooks do. If you are lucky enough to find bunch in the market, carry it home and put it in a pot of earth. It will keep verdant all win ter in a sunny window, as parsley does. At a first glance you might imagine it was grass, but each tiny blade is a tube, like an onion top. Chives, although more delicate, belong to the onion family. A tablespoon

GOODCOUGH MEDICINETOR Chill
DREN,

The season for coughs and colds is now
at hand and too much care cannot be
used to protect the children. child
is much more likely to contract diph-
liberia or scarlet fever when he has a
cold. The quicker you cure his cold
the less the risk. Chamberlain Cough
Remedy is the sole reliance of many
mothers, and few of those who have
tried are willing to use any other. Mrs,
F. F. Starcher, of Ripley, w. Va, says,
II have never used any thing other than
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy for my
children, and it has always given good
satisfaction. This remedy contains no
opium or other narcotic, and may be
given as confidently to child as to an
adult. For sale by G. NJ. Crosby & Co.,

BIG SUIT FILED.

The Southern Railway is the defend
ant in a suit for s., 884.32, filed under a
mechanics lien with the clerk Of the
superior court. The bone Of contention
is the big new double track bridge
which spans the Chsttahoochee, on the
boundary line between Fulton and Cobb
counties.
The contractor who issued the lien is
John William Ash, the man who built
the masonry on the bridge, which has
just recently been completed. The
bridge was completed and the contrac-
tor claims the account was due on the
10Th of November, therefore he asks for
interest since that time.
