salt, one cup sugar, one-fourth teaspoon
cinnamon, one-fourth teaspoon nutmeg,
and -four enough to make dough as
soft as can be handled, rolling out only
a few at a time. Fry in lard not too
hot at first, only smoking the least bit,
and increasing the heat to brown, later.
Do not turn till thoroughly done on
one side. If richer doughnuts are
wanted, put level tablespoon of sour
cream in the cup before filling it with
sour milk. Eggs only make them dry
and hard, and a good doughnut should
be soft and light.

cup buttermilk, one scant teaspoon

Best Way to Serve Eggs.

An Englishman who is an enthus-
lastic believer in eggs, writes:
Eggs are one of the most valuable
articles of diet known to our English
tables, and weight for weight the most
nourishing of any animal food. Much,
however, of their nourishing and ap-
petizing qualities are lost in the man
ner in which they are prepared Some
years ago when on the Continent,
was given a breakfast of three eggs
poached in milk and served with it.
They were just set as was the milk
in which they were poached and I
never enjoyed dish of eggs more in
my life. [ have often had an encore
Of that dish since. To prepare eggs in
this manner an enamel pan should be
used, and there should be just enough
milk to float the eggs as they are brok-
en- into it, pinch Of salt, and a small
piece OF butter should be added to the
milk, and then the pan should BE set
over the gas stove for about $50 sec
onds. They should be brought direct
from the stove to the table in the
enamel pan.
There is much art in cooking eggs
properly, and they will repay the time
spent in acquiring the art. Eggs do
not improve by keeping before they
are cooked, and they certainly do not
after. An egg should be served and
eaten Immediately it Games off the
fire, if one is to appreciate it's deli
cious flavor, and receive the full bene-
fit Of its nutritive properties Many
people there are who say they cannot
take eggs. It is because they never
know the pleasure of having them
properly cooked and served Of foods
rich in nutriment there is none more
easily digested than raw or properly
cooked egg.

Some Helpful Hints.

Mrs. M. I. McGregor contributes
the following to the Inland Farmer:
Bright Lamps. proper care of
the lamp is an important matter in
homes that are not lighted by electrici-
ty. Many lamp gives a dull and
feeble light or has been set aside as
dangerous simply because the burners
had not been kept clean and dust had
accumulated in the air-tube at the side
Of the wick. The remedy is very sim
pie. Remove the wick and place the
burners in water in which there is
enough pearline to make a good suds
and boil them half an hour Or more.
This will remove the oil and leave
them bright and clean The lamps
should be filled every day and the
chimneys polished. Nothing but the
best oil should be used and a full lamp
gives the best light. If lamp has a re-
aector, keep brightly polished. Do not
cut the wichs but trim them just above
the tube and brush off with a match
the charred portion New lamp CHM
neyS may be toughened by putting
them in water and heating it slowly to
the boiling point Let them cool
slowly in the water.
A little kerosene local oiD on a
flannel cloth is one of the best things
for cleaning furniture. Finger marks
and dust will disappear like magic.
White of egg will remove fy-specks
from gilt picture frames, and those
that are old and discolored may be re-
newed with a coat of diamond gold
paint. A small bottle costs ten cents
and brush comes with it.
To prevent stockings wearing at the
heel line the back of the shoe with a
small piece Of black velvet.
An embroidery frame is a great help
IN mending underwear, and for darn
ing three-cornered tear in skirt it
is almost indispensable Always press
a mended place we'll on the wrong
side
Have each of your friends write her
choicest recipe on a postal card and
mail it to you. Punch a hole in the
corner and tie them together with
ribbon and you will have a keepsake
that is worth while.

COMMERCIAL CLUB MEETS
TUESDAY AN IMPORTANT MEET
ING HAS BEEN CALLED FOR
PURPOSE OF REoRoANIzINo.

One of the most important meet
ings of the Commercial club has been
called to be held in the city hall to
morrow night. A number Of import.
ant matters are TO come up for con
sideration, and President Ice Cruce
has something important to impart to
the members.
The question Of going after several
more OF the life insurance companies
who are TO leave Texas will be con.
sidered. as well as the appointment
Of number Of important committees
looking toward interesting outside
capital to come here and locate.
The club has been asleep since the
campaign opened, but sine the cam.
paign is over the leading citizens of
the city are beginning to take an in
terest in the matter and something
will be done
Secretary Sanders is in receipt of
a number of communications from peo-
pie living in other states who wish TO
locate here and has been in cores
pondence with them, but the coop
GRAFTON given the secretar yhas been
meagre, and for that reason no great
showing has been made.
Director Mike German will submit
his proposition for the betterment of
the public roads in this county, and
some action will in all probability be
taken in that matter. In AL probable
ity the club will undergo complete
reorganization and everybody will
get together to work for the upbuild-

um. II Ardmore is to be judged by
this standard, and the support re-
ceiyed by the Y. NJ. c. A. auxiliary,

was still a wild western place.

Should the chautauqua be thought
OF for next summer. 1t will be nee
cssary to insure the entire expenses

John D. Has $500, 900, 900.

New York, Feb. 6.-The mag
nitude of John d. Rockefeller's
fortune was developed in an in
quiry here. In reply to a ques.
ton, Frederick r. Gates, Mr..
Rockefeller's business repre-
sentative, said:
"There have been a great
many amusing misstatements on
this subject. Several years ago
Senator Hoar in the senate cred
tied Mr.. R )ckefeller with a for
tune of one thousand millions Of
dollars. Quite recently a state
ment has been made and pub
lished widely throughout the
country that his annual inco me
exceeds one hundred million
dollars.
"Now, the facts are that Mr..
Rockefeller has at various times,
himself, authorized stateme ent
that his fortune cannot exceed
$3.50, 100000, to $30O,O00,OOO.
Furthermore his income instead
of being $l0O,OO0.OOO or any
thing like it, caunot in his most
prosperous year have exceeded
$4,000, 900 to $2O,0OO,OOO.
"The public generally are un
der the impression that he owns
a majority of the Standard Oil
stock. Tho facts are that Mr..
Rockefeller's holdings Of Stand,
ard Oil stock are about 20 per
cent"
