APPLE BUTTER

In making apple butter on the stove
It is a good plan to take two days for
It. The first day boil down the cider.
prepare the apples and make the apple
sauce. The next day boil the butter
and It win not seem so great task
TO put It into Jars, as when you have
made It all in one day and are so
tired.
Always use Eranulated sugar be-
cause Il is purer and has greater sweet
ening quality than the cheaper grades.
The quickest and easiest way 20 get

fectly clean. bright wash boiler.

ples of medium tartness. (the "snoke-
house" apple makes delicious butter),
about eighteen pounds Of granulated
sugar and spice TO. taste-cinnamon.
cloves and allsDice-use less allspice
than the other spices.
The first day put the cider on 70

them on to cook in little water and

so as not to stop the boiling too long.

SOME DIFFERENCES

Business with a man is a permanent
career. an end which he never permits
TO drop out OF sight. With the aver
age woman II is merely an expediert.
With a man success in business is
all-absorbing. matrimony and love are
incidents. With a woman I'm time
love and matrimony become the real
things Of life and business the Incl
dent.
Success with the business man is
satisfying. II the right woman is a
factor or is benefited by his business
success he counts this as an added
blessing. The woman cannot enjov
success alone. She must share II with
some one. This IS the natural outcrop-
ping Of unselhshness in the woman.
With a man success. or efforts to-
ward success. dwarf all other feelings.
With q woman sentiment. affection.

inc nature are liable TO imperil her

FOR ELDERLY WOMEN

The dressing OF the neck is a point for
the most serious consideration. To the
elderly woman IL is a crucial test, and
needs careful treatment In the major
ity Of cases something softoning is re-
quired Immediately next to the face, and
something light in color. A severe line
is unbecoming, except to the freshest OF
faces.
The soft null ties. with the attrac-
tive embroidered or lace ends. should
have prominent part I'm the elderly
woman's neckwear. Besides. they are
unusually smart this season, and are
worn by the young as well as the elderly
The bonnet ana hat are much-discussed
questions for the elderly woman. The
bonnet tied under the chin is entirely
out Of fashion. In its places is the bonnet
toque. which Is not only becoming. but
entirely suitable as well.
Stitching is an important factor in the
trimming Of these suits. In some cases
it is quite as elaborate as bra ding A
great deal OF soutache braid is used.
Broadcloth always makes a handsome
tailor suit. especially for one that must
serve the purpose Of best frock. Home
spun. serge and cheviot make the incest
possible material for suits for everyday
wear.

FALSELY QUOTED.
chestertown Postmaster Denies State
ments Published by Liquor Men as
Coming From Him.


The general unreliability of the in
terviews quoted in the various stories
written up by the paid representative
of the liquor interests claiming to rep
resent conditions on the Eastern Shore
counties where local option laws exist,
may be judged from the following in
stance:
In the story written up from Ches-
tertown, Kent county, Md, the writer
for the liquor men says:
Mr. Wilbur Thomas, the postmaster,
a man of keen discernment and un-
questionable honesty. said frankly:
Prohibition helps our party, but it does
not help business"
Regarding this interview Mr.. Thomas
who richly deserves the high tribute
paid TO his personal character in the
item above quoted, in a letter written
by his own hand and duly signed,
says:

The facts in the case are these. Some
weeks ago a gentleman called at the

ing our busiest time of the day and
in the few minutes conversation

That local option was unquestion-
ably of great advantage TO the town.

paid for from the earnings of the lab

conduct upon our street; a drunken
man now rarely ever being seen
that It had in no wise impaired our
business interest, but as to the volume
of business, I was not in a position to
speak-that as a party, the Republi-
can party of Kent had favored local
option and in my opinion had been
benefited from it,
This covered the conversation.
1 am to-day more impressed with the
needs of local option and in favor of il
more than ever before, which is say
ing much; and knowing as / do of the
manifold blessings, comforts and bene-
fits it has brought to our people, which

Sup't. Joe n. Powers.

state Superintendent of Educa-
ton, Joe n. Powers, the recent ap-
pointtee Of Gov. Vardaman to fill
the unexpired term of Hon. II L.
Whitfield, and now a candidate for
election for the full term to that Of
flee, has taken for his motto, a
better chance in life for every boy
and girl. .
He enjoys the confidence of the
teachers and educators of the State,
having received his appointment
from the Governor because of their
almost unanimous endorsement.
Mr.. Powers came from the coun-
try schools and by dint of self-de-
NAL and the improvement Of op-
portunities managed to complete
his education at the Southern Uni
versity and the Chicago University.
He has filled some Of the most
important schools in the State, hav-
ing succeeded to his present posi-
ton from the Superintendency Of
the West Point graded schools.
His opponent, Mr.. G. F. Boyd,
was a co-applicant for appointment
to the State superintendent office
to succeed Mr.. Whitfield Mr..
Boyd volunteered his services to the
two-mill tax committee, to canvass
Monroe county in advocacy Of the
two-mill school tax, which was re-
Gently defeated by the voters at the
polls. Because his services could
not be made valuable to the cause,
the committee wrote him respect
fully declining his offer.
Mr.. Powers has the endorsement
Of the educators and the school peo-
pie, and the educational interests of
the State will be safe in his hands.

What Mr.. Williams Thought of
Governor Vardaman Before
This Campaign.

Many of the papers supporting
Mr.. Williams are printing a letter,
which is read by him III his speech
es, purporting to have been written
by Governor Vardaman, where in
September, 1908. he spoke of Mr..
Williams favorably to a mutual
friend of theirs. Why does not Mr..
Williams also read and papers print
what he wrote about Governor Var
daman when Mr.. Williams was a
member of the resolution commit
tee of the last State convention,
June Is, 1904, before Governor
Vardaman had become a candidate
for the Senate? After speaking of
the supremacy of the white man in
the platform here is what Sr Viii
liams wrote as reported in the Mem
phis Commercial Appeal of June 10,
1904. In this connection we just
~ applaud the present Governor
(Vardaman) of the State for his ex-
emplifcation Of those principles in
his maintenance of law and order,
and that reverence due to the courts
of our making.
The Commercial Appeal then
adds Mr.. Williams read a reso-
luton drawn up by the convention
endorsing the administration of
GovernorAVardaman, especially his
efforts to enforce the laws equally
and Justly. This resolution was
adopted with cheers. .4s&

A serious clash has occurred be-
tween the Federal and the State
courts OF North Carolina that viii
probably bring the States rights
issue squarely before the United
States Supreme Court. A State cir
cult court Judge had sent two agents
to prison and imposed a fine of $50, =
900 on the Southern Railroad, for
violation of North Carolina statute
providing for two-cent passenger
fares. Judge Pritchard of the Uni
ted States circuit court, by habeas
corpus proceedings, liberated the
prisoners and nullified the action Of
the State court, which was followed
by considerable excitement in the
Tar Heel State and administration
circles in Washington, including
the President at Oyster Bay. Gov.
Glenn declares that the Federal
courts have no right to interfere and
that the courts Of his State shall be
respected at the expense of every
vestige of power at his command.
At last accounts efforts were being
made by agents Of the department
of justice at the capitol to avoid
hOstilities.

Rural High Schools.

The next forward step in educa-
tional progress lies in the direction
of rural high schools, located at
suitable intervals throughout the
country, the larger centers of popu-
lation being naturally chosen for
their establishment; the primary
schools becoming feeders to this
central institution in every beat.
This will complete a desirable
/ system of rural education and save
much money to parents who are
compelled to send their sons and
daughters away Trombone for more
advanced instruction. The average
high school completes a fair Eng
lish education, such as the average
man or woman needs for the Ordi-
nary purposes Of life, prepares the
ground adequately for intellectual
development, and every boy and
girl in Mississippi is entitled to the
opportunity that it yields.
As we have said, this is the next
forward step in the march of edu-
cational expansion, and it viii make
imperative the demand for good
roads, that the children of each
rural community may be able to
profit by these institutions; they
must be made accessible; and this
will not be possible without good
highways leading from every farm
house to the high school. The two
must go together; and both are the
inevitable developments of the very
early future. The standard of in
telligence in the rural districts is
as high, today, as it is in the cities;
and the demand for educational
facilities and opportunities is as i'm
perious. The farmer is as DESTROYS
that his sons and daughters shall
enjoy the advantages of a higher in
struction as is the merchant and
professional man, and this desire is
not going to wait much longer for
realization The three Rs sufficed
for the old generation; they will not
suffice for the new, because the
standard of ordinary intelligence
has been raised.
The demand for the rural high |
school and for good roads are COIN
cident, and so intimately related |
that the coming of the one will in
evitably bring the other to the pros
pering of every moral, civil, social |
and material interest Meridian
