Mrs. J. II. Bartlett has rendered
her resignation MS postmaster mt Blu
ford near the forks of the river on
upper White. Mrs. Bartlett has had
the office eight years, and is rightly
of the opinion that one of the neigh
bors should discommOde himself or
herself for a like period for the benz
eft of all the people up there as she
has done-and she did 1T well. The
recent addition of money order BUSH
ness to fourth-class pOstoffices likely
was one of the causes leading to the
resignation, and while she had no
trouble in that branch yet the extra
red tape was not sufficiently compen-
stated. Just who the successor will
be, or where the office will be 10
Gated, are matters to be determined
be the patrons of the office, Mrs. b.
making no recommendation. 1t may
go up the north branch or south
branch, or down the river few
miles, or the Office might he discon-
tinued entirely.

ROAST SPARERIB

1t may be possible in some markets
where they cut their own pork. to Sc
cure a sparerib from which most of the
meat on the inside has not been re.
moved. If SO, this recipe is worth try
ing Cover the meat closely until it is
about half done, then uncover anil
dredge with flour. Basic it often, the
first time with butter and water, and
after that with its own gravy. Five
minues before taking it out strew it
thickly with fine bread crumbs, to which
you have added teaspoonful of onion
minced very fine, salt, pepper and very
little powdered sage. Let the meat cook
five minutes longer, basting again with
butter Proceed with the gravy as
directed in the recipe for roast chine.
Both witlnehine and sparerib il is well
to have the butcher cut the joints be-
fore it is sent home, as this will sim

KEEP CHILDREN OUT OF DOORS

The cry of the century is for fresh
air, fresh aid, fresh air. Some wealthy
families, like those of the Goulds and
Vanderbilts, do not permit their young.
est children to appear in the city at all,
but keep them out in the country, where
they lead a life of great simplicity, says
Vogue.
Other parents are realizing more and
more what the first nine years of a
child Is life mean to Its future. That it
is during these years the psychological
tendencies are strongest, and in these
years it should be intelligently, tender
ly cared for. and the environment kept
as wholesome and full of sunshine rs
possible.
1t has been noted that children who
live out of doors in the country show
less fretfulness and bad temper than if
brought up in the sitting atmosphere of
cities, where proper exercise and sufii.
eient fresh air are not to be obtained
even by the multi-millionaire S eMl-
dren. Healthy children are merry, as
it is perfectly natural for children TO
be happy, and when they are kept out
of doors and entertained by the simple
pleasures the country affords, they are
like kittens or birds.

Washing Cooking Vessels.

When washing cooking vessels, it
should be remembered that hot water
sets potatoes, flour, milk and eggs.
The vessels in which these have been
cooked should first be washed in cold
water, then in hot. This seemingly
double labor will prove one of thc
greatest of time-savers. Greese yields
only to very hot water, and it little
soda be added, the work will be greatly
expedited, for the soda will convert the
grease into an alkali which will do its
own cleaning.
Sometimes, as in the ease of an one
lettc, souffic or some similar dish that,
to be a success, must go directly from
the fire to the table-a vessel cannot be
washed as soon as emptied of its con
tents. In such ease, fill it with cold
or hot water, as the exigencies Of tho
case may demand, cover closely and
set aside, not ON the stove however, for
this would result in cooking the rem
nants of food and causing them to adj
here more closely.

Dressing Sisters Alike

II was obsolete for a while, but the
custom seems to have been restored to
favor, and is now prevalent among the
most fashionably dressed persons. The
sisters who dress alike need not he
twins. They very often, as is the ease
with the two daughters of Mrs. William
X. Vanderbilt by her second marriage,
are not. These children, the little Ruth
erford girls, wear in winter quaint
round bonnets, suits of heavy corduroy
and carry big muffs. One has fuzzy
erimps standing out like a big ball of
fluff at each side of her face, and the
other has eurls of the old-fashionei sort
that are brushed over stick

Hungarian Goulashe.

Among the appetizing and inexpensive
luncheon dishes, Hungarian Goulashe
holds an established place. The follow
ing is reliable recipe for this:
Cut two pounds of flank steak into
small cubes and arrange on the bottom
of fat-bottomed kettle. Season with
salt and pepper and cover with layer
of sliced onion, and so on, until the
dish is as full as desired. Add sufficient
canned or fresh tomatoes, allowing n
pint to each quart of meat and pota-
toes. Pour these on top of the kettle,
but do not stir. Now push the kettle
back on the stove and simmer gently
two hours, or longer, if necessary to
make the meat perfectly tender. Peel
small potatoes of uniform size, and put
into the kettle, pushing the meat to one
side TO make room for them. Cook fit.

There's note of simplicity in chill
dren's costumes, and the overdressed
child is now the exception.
That the fashionable skirt of the day
may be smooth fitting, all extra mater
