Use for Celery Leaves.

After cleaning the celery do not
throw away the leaves. Wash them
carefully, spread them out thinly and
set them on the back of the stove to
dry.
After they are thoroughly dried, rub
them to a powder, and put them away
in bottles. They will prove a delicious
flavor to many different kinds OF
dishes.
Try a pinch in a chicken stew, or
with the scalloped tomatoes.

To Steam Brown Bread.

A loaf of steamed brown bread or a
pudding generally has a soggy, wet
place on the top, caused by the steam
condensing on the inside Of the cover
and dropping down on the loaf. To
prevent this, fold a clean dish towel
two or three times, and put it on your
steamer before your put on the cover.
The towel will absorb the steam and
your loaf will be perfect.

raw egg to hold them together; dip
in egg, roll in crumbs and fry in deep

used instead of the rice, although rice
seem to lend itself to curries with
peculiar appropriateness.

UNION CITY, Tenn, Jan. 24-in
todays American appeared special
from Mayfeld, KY, stating that one
Benedict, a blacksmith living there,
had received legacy of 100000 from
a Union City relative. After making
diligent inquiry Of the best informed
men here. and examining the records,
your correspondent can say there Is
absolutely no truth in the report. It
would require the combined resources
of at least two Of U ion City's wealth
lest men to get together the amount
OF the lgacy stated and they are all
very much alive at this time.
]. w. Benedict is a cousin OF A, A.
Bracken, who died here last week,
leaving property valued at about $25,-
600. He did not leave will. The
100000 legacy report is an absurd
canard.

DR.. Wharton has been holding them

to Clarksville and see what they had,

convenience throughout that section
and If we go into the corporation we
will have pavements." Those gentle
men evidently overlook the fact that
there is not law on the statute book
of Columbia which can compel that
city to build one foot of paving, while
on the other hand, the charter OF the
city expressly provides that the city
can compel the abutting property own
err even against his own win, to build
pavements, at his cwn expense, In
front Of his property. Now In West
End the majority of he owners, aside
from those who already have their
pavements, hold property which fronts
from three hundred to thousand
feet on the public highways This
fact OF itself would convince an reas-
enable minded man Of the inexped-
iency Of permitting the proposed in

in the city, and we can get street

would tax many for the benefit of a

Aside from these facts, think that
none of the citizens Of that community
are wholly ambitious Of taking upon
their shoulders the present city debt,
which would be one Of the many gold

TWO EXCELLENT
SERMONS

Rev. T. c. Ragsdale of Pulaski and
Rev. ]. w. Cherry of this city, ex-
changed pulpits Sunday, and the cold
Indictment weather prevented many
from hearing two most excellent SER
mons preached by Mr. Ragsdale in the
First Methodist church in Columbia
There are few young men more
gifted than Mr.. Ragsdale. He has a
fine command Of choice English; he Is
original in thought strong In argu-
ment. and has a voice and manner
attractive in public speaker
His subject in the morning was Am
NY Brothers Keeper This ques-
ton, he said, was asked in the early
morning of this worlds history, and
has been asked over and over and
over again by millions of people all
the years since; 1t was a question We
sometimes like to get away from; q
question we would Outlines like to put
out OF our conscience; but IT comes
back with renewed force. and the con-
science was dead that could not hear
it.
We are our brothers keeper; and
there are those right around us who
need the cheering words and the
strong arm to save them from them
selves. The man who has labored on
the farm, or in the shop, or at the
desk. or behind the counter, needs
appreciation and sympathy and love
to meet him at the evening hour when
he returns from the exhausting cares
of the day, to that blessed place called
Home.
At the evening hour Mr.. Ragsdale's
Obscure though from a different sub
ject. was to large extent along the
same line Of thought which was, that
we all need encouragement and help,
and that the silent cry of the human
heart was for sympathy and love; and
that in dealing out that help to others
our own souls receive in return con-
soling and strengthening help from
above We are all inclined at times
to see the dark cloud without its
silver lining. The man who is striv-
ing to live right and to do good; the
man who wants to be helpful neigh
Dor. the man who is restless under
the sins of the city and would sacri-
fee his time and his means, to right
these wrongs; the man who saw the
nation staggering under the weight OF
bad laws and the non-enforcement OF
good laws, sometimes reached the end
of human endurance and from the
agony OF his heart would cry out, "Oh
that might quit II all; oh that I
might take the wings Of the dove and,
fiy and leave all this strife and sin
behind me-" But when we feel that
the load has become heavier than we
can bear, II we will take our disap-
pointment and disbursement all to-
God in prayer, He win tell us as he
did Elijah Of old. there are thousands
and multiplied thousands around you
who have never yet bowed their knee
to Baal"
There was much helpfulness COM
fort and encouragement in both OF
these sermons, and IL Is o pity that
a city full of people In dire need and
distress could not hear them. II IS
TO be hoped that Mr.. RagsdaIe viii
come again when II is faIrer weather.
and a larger congregation will greet
him.

CARD FROM
CROCKETT OWEN

To the Taxpayers of West End
Possibly a majority of the residents
of the suburb of Columbia, commonly
known as West End, are aware OF the
fact that the question Of admitting
that section OF the city into the cor
porate limits of Columbia has been agi-
tated for some weeks, and meeting
Of the property owners Of that vicin-
nv has been called for Monday night
to conside rthe advisability OF the pro-
posed annexation.
AT the request of some OF those In
terested, signed this call but, like
most of the others whose signatures
it bears. / stand firmly against any
proposition that will straddle an OPP
pressive tax upon the property own
ers and at the same time be unable to
give in return proportionate amount
OF benefits in return. and this must
necessarily be the result il at this
time the people OF West End should
suffer their property to be admitted
into any municipal corporation
NV reason for this position Is that
tba old democratic principle Of tax
alton without rig' to receive full
benefits thereform' can never result
il any gain to those effected.
The principle con- eniences which q
L..
municipal corporation is supposed TO
guarantee to its citizens are police
protection, fire protection and light
End wlter privileges, and in addition
10 these ii usually guarantees large
city debt against which the statute
of limitations never runs and upon
which the interest compounds.
Now for the sake Of argument, sup
nose we should vote ourselves into
the corporation; Immediately our
property would be taxed $3.50 on
every one hundred dollars; the present
CITY tax. The proposed annexation
extends nearly mile from the pres
ont CITY limits and Is very thinly set
fled as compared to the residences
Of the city, thus making the necessity
for fire protection exceedingly small,
and at the same time throwing the
great bulk of the taxation on very
few of the citizens. IN fact, the sum
total OF all the taxes paid would pos
I z;bly come from nct as many as a
hnndred OF the citizens, as number
~ the residents Of that community
are renters.
Again. what police profession could
the city Of Columbia guarantee to the
citizens III that section a mile and a
ha,f distant from the warm fires OF
the nolice station? u would require
a. least four more policemen stationed
n the annexed territory in order that
The service be at all efficient.
Again, suppose are should break
az, IN that vicinity. the fire depart
ment with fifteen minutes start, could
NOT reach building in the portion Of
tb,s suburb before the property had
hean destroyed and of course we could
not expect TO be furnished with an
,of,c,ent sub-6re. as station. the addi-
,t,onal taxes would not be ample to
