Simple Salads.

An odd and pretty salad is made OF
celery and apple. Instead of the us
ual crescents and cubes, the celery
and apples are cut in long, narrow
straws, mixed lightly with mayonalse,
and garnished with fluffy border of
watercress.
Another salad is of potato and to-
mato. The freshly cooked potato is
cut in very small pieces, placed in
bowl with sigh of onion. A French
dressing is poured over while the po-
tato is warm and the whole allowed
to stand for two hours in cold place.
When ready to serve, fresh tomato,
is peeled, carefully scooped out, filled
with the potato mixture, and large
spoonful of cooked dressing, to which
whipped cream has been added,
placed on top.-The Housekeeper.
Celery and Apples on the Half
Shell.-Just before time to serve, pare
and slice three tart apples; cut one
bunch celery into small lengths; mix
together and dress with good salad
dressing. Have ready bright red APP
pies of uniform size, washed, dried,
cut into halves and the pulp scooped
out. Fill these shells with the mix
ture, and arrange for individual serv-
ing on crisped lettuce leaves.
If suet which is to be chopped is
first sprinkled with ground rice it will
chop more easily.
Dried and hardened lemons will be-
come quite soft again if allowed to
soak in cold water for a time.
Don't form the habit of running up
bills; they only lead to overcharges

Hints for Home Nursing.

Every home nurse should know that
there are two drachms in a dessert
spoonful, four drachms in a table
spoonful, and two tablespoonful are
equal to one fluid ounce.
Bottles can be obtained that are
made expressly to contain poison, and
it is advisable to keep it in one OF
these. They are of dark blue glass
and their surface is rendered immell-
ately noticeable to the touch by being
studded all over with Irregularities
Every housewife should know what
to do in case wrong drug is admin
istered. If an injurious drug is spill
ed on the skin, the part should be i'm
mediately immersed in water to dilute
the poison. A burn from crude car
bo1ic acid should be bathed with al
cohol; if carbolic acid is swallowed,
give milk and 1imewater. Caustic pot
ash and ammonia are perhaps more
frequently swallowed by children than
are other poisons, and the best anti
dote is some such acid as vinegar Or
lemon juice. An emetic that is al
ways available is a mixture of mus
tard and water; and running the fin
gers down the ,child's throat will often
make it vomit.

labor varies in different parts Of the

 Believes in Rampant

Fred Cassidy and Shorty" Ole Olson came in from the Troublesome country and have been waiting around several days for conditions of travel to improve so they can move a horse load of emer- gency provisions over to Quail creek.
 They have whipsawed lumber for a dam to shut the Troublesome water off the Quail bar, from which they propose to shovel in and hope to make a pretty good stake. There is enough ground to keep them occupied two or three sum- mers.
 The men are not only strong of back and tenacious of purpose; but Ole, espe- cially, has faith that is as firm as a rock. Don't you worry about Ram part" he said to the Valley News man !: ''it will be a good camp when some of the prouder places of the present time will be trailing their banners in the dust Rampant has the gold, and the men who stay with the camp are bound to win out.

Local and General Notes

Last night the temperature was as low as + above.
 The hard frosts of the past week were nightly, except that a snowstorm set in Saturday afternoon and lasted we'll up into Sunday. There is indication of warmer weather now
 While rummaging in his cellar few days ago S. E. Heeter found small crate of potatoes which had remained there forgotten and unmolested for two winters and a summer. They were per fectly sound and firm.
 Harry Burruss, of Smith X Burruss, freighters, telegraphed from across the divide few days ago that he needs ad- ditional stock in the work over there. Horses will be sent over as soon as the condition of the trail will allow it.
 While digging in the garden last Thursday the editor turned up frog from what had evidently been its winter sleeping place. The little amphibian was unmistakably alive, but was incapa- ble of the gymnastics common to its kind in the good old summertime
 There is an epidemic of colds and light levers in camp. A majority of the resi- dents have been more or less affected. A peculiarity of each case is that the fever comes on in the evening and dis appears as the following day advances, and this is kept up till the disease runs it's course. The situation is aggravated by the absence of the only physician, Dr. Hudgin, who is at Ray River Hot Springs.
