More Islands Than Thought.

San Francisco, Dec. 23.-Uncle Sam
is richer by 1,400 islands than he
thought he was. When the United
States purchased the Philippines the

from perfect, but it was thought they
were sufficiently accurate for all pur-
poses OF the treaty. Accurate maps
were brought to San Francisco today
from the islands, which show that in
the group are 1900 islands. Many of
them are small.

Culinary Feats of the Women of
 Dixie.
 It is a we,l-known fact that during the war between the States. the women of Dixie made--that is, spun. dyed. wove, cut out and sewed-Fnostiy by hand--the soldiers clothes. as well as their own;. made, also. their own slip pera and "gaitors" from cloth woven at home This Is all common history. But few know of the straits of tho Southern housewife. who had to pre- paare the daily meale--no sugar, no soda. no coffee, no salt--that absolate necessity. In North Alabama. she had to manufacture, evolve or discover ulfl ' e3> things. In our own kcusehold. after trying all the different sub sti- tutes for coffee-rye. wheat, corn and okra-we finally fell back on sweet potatoes The potatoes were cut isi small cubes, like grains of conee-- dried, parched and ground, then boiled in water. and this beverage we called coffee"
 For sugar, we used honey. sorghum and persimmon syrups. Soda was made by burning the corncobs, and saw ing the white of the ashes--we had very fair soda. But salt--that was something we could not live without. After we were cut off from Virginia, it was almost impossible to obtain. Now and then a sack would be snug Rled through, and that must be Kept to save the meat--as our salt would not do this. What did our brave wo- men do? Well. they just dug up the dirt one and two feet deep In the ola smoke houses where the meat had been salted down for years: threw this earth up into hoppers as our mothers did the good hickory ashes foA making soap. The water leached from this earth made a good, strong brine. is was poured into kettles, boiled until gradually a salt would form on tops this was skinned, oh. so careruilys with a strainer. dried fin the sun. ana then the good housewife was happy she had salt! It was said that one woman---I fail,to remember the name--~ in High Jackson" after using up the smokehouse earth. took trough m which meat had been saited down Tor fifty years, split 1t up. burned the woods Ieached the ashes and behoidl ten bounds of salt! Oh, ye dainty ladies. who have your show kitchens and storeroons filled with everything your heart can desire--do you ever stop 70 think of the cares and trials of your mothers, who, reared in all luxury ana ease, yet when the necessity cazns. without murmur. aye, gayly ana briebtly. for their dear Southlands when fathers, husbands and brothers went to the front, they buckied oh tn cir armor and carried on the war in their own homes-truly. cheerruily and valiantly.
