Canyon City news. (Canyon City, Tex.) 1903-1908, 1907-07-26

Clerk Tate's good arm, and many
scratches and bruises make up
the sun total of this wreck in so
far as the knowledge of The News
goes.
LAST DAY.
Attendance reduced about like
that of first day. The platform
feature of this day was the adj
dress of Jefferson Davis Sande-
fer, superintendent of public
schools at Stephenville. 1t was
a good one both in substance and
delivery and well worthy to be
placed alongside of those deliv-
cred by the three Congressman
who preceded him. In fact Mr..
Sandefer is congressional tim
Der; he came near it once in Gil
lespie's district and he will break
in the Capitol circle yet if he
don't look out.

Concerning Apples.

The reason why apples are so much
more wholesome and digestible when
they are roasted, boiled or baked is
because the heat thus applied breaks
down the cells of the apple, and thus
the acid and the sugar contained in
them are more generally dffused
through the apples, and the moisture
is also dispersed
\ French way Of cooking apples
which we have seldom come across,
excepting in the homes OF those who
nave lived in that country. is as fol-
lows; Core and pare your apples
and place them in a baking tin, hay-
ing filled with butter and brown SUI
gar the space left by the removal OF
the core Sprinkle brown sugar and
bits of butter about between the ap-
pies in the tin, and then bake These
pommes au beurre are most delicious.
An apple and orange salad is also
a very nice and little known way of
using apples. Slice the oranges, az
ter removing skin and scraping OF
the pulp, into a bowl, mix with the
slices some apples cut into quarters
or eighths. Put plenty of sugar In
between each layer and mix well. Let
this be made about an hour before
YOU need TO use It, 1t is a nice dish.
for the oranges give very delicate
flavor to the apples, and both go very
we'll together.
Apples arc considered wholesome
even when eaten raw. One taken at
breakfast every morning IS supposed

those who suffer from liver trouble
or govt would do we'll to use them.
Apples are considered to be OF high
value as brain food. owing TO the am

teaspoonful of essence of rosemary.
An ammonia bath is excellent when
the system is much exhausted, and
makes the flesh firm and smooth, and
purifies the skin Those who suffer
from rheumatism will find relief by
adding to the bath one hundred grams
of soft soap and one hundred grams
of essence of turpentine, shaken to-
gsther until the mixture is a lather.
The bather should remain in the bath
for fifteen minutes, and then get in
stantly into bed.
10 Soften Water-Bran or oatmeal
Is valuable for softening hard water.
For a bath, stir a peck of bran into
tub OF warm water. The friction
of the loose bran calls the circula-
ton OF the blood to the surface of
the skin, and so cleanses and softens
It.
