Fruit Bread.

The night before you wish to bake,
set cake of yeast with a cupful of
potato water. Mix with a little flour
ike thin batter, let it stand all night
in a warm place; in the morning sift
your -four in your pan, then put a
quart Of warm milk in your flour, then
add your yeast and two cups of sugar,
one teaspoon salt, one cup of butter.
one pound of currants, one pound
seedless Taisins, one pound of walnuts,
one spoon of lemon or vanilla extract.
three eggs. Mix it and work in Just
like you do bread. Then set it in a
warm place to rise; when light, shane
in small fat loaves, put in pans to rise
again, when nice and light butter the
top and sprinkle with sugar and CHINA
mon, or leave plain; then bake until
a light brown in a not too hot oven.
This you can keep for a whole week
and 1t won't dry out.

Pumpkin Pie.

Three pounds of pumpkin, six
ounces of butter, six eggs, three table
spoonfuls of wine, two of brandy. the
rind and juice of one lemon, as much
cinnamon as can be put on a dime.
Cut the pumpkin in slices, pare it,
take out the seeds and soft parts, cut
it into small pieces and stew in a
small quantity of water until tender.
Then press in colander until dry.
Turn it out in pan, put in the but
ter and salt and mash fine.
When cool whisk the eggs until light
and stir in, add sugar to taste, also
the brandy, wine and cinnamon.
This is sufficient for three or four
pies.
Line the plates with paste and bake
in quick oven.

Or THE CAKE MAKER.
Meant to Satisfy Longing for Some
thing Different"

Instead of cooking aTf the sugar or
ginger cookies the same size try cut
ting some out with small cans, baking
the same as larger cookies.
Make a boiled frosting of one cup
of sugar and a little water, boiled un-
I'll it will thread. and then poured
slowly over the beaten whites of two
eggs. Beat until cold. Flavor and
spread on smaf cookies; dip into
cocoanut and press two cookies to-
gether. This makes a neat little cake,
and may be made with colored or
chocolate frosting and cocoanut omit
ted, just as one TIeases.
The small round centers of dough
left when cutting out doughnuts are
nice fried and dipped in the frosting
and cocoanut.
II sponge or angel food cake is
tough, place in a stone crock or Jar.
cover carefully, and set in the cellar
or cool place for a day or two, at the
end of which time the cake viii be
moist and tender.
The ordinary paper cracker boxes.
three by u inches in size. are nice to
bake loaf cakes in, requiring little fire.
and the parafin paper with which they
are lined prevents the cake from stick
ing.
The Washington bee., 1908-01-25
HINTS FOR THE COOK.

Select dozen or so of the smooth
est and largest splints from the new
broom and lay them away to use in
testing cake when it is baking.
When cutting bread and butter spe-
cially thin, occasionally dip the knife
IN hot water, and never draw the knife
over the same place.
When frying fish of any sort little
salt should be sprinkled on the base
OF the pan when it is hot and the fat
Is boiling. The fish can then be easily
turned without being broken.
When cooking chops and steaks in
a fryingpan or on a gridiron, never
thrust a fork into them in order to
turn them. If you do the juice will
run out and the steak or chop will be
hard or dry.
The dripping from roast meat, the
skimmings from soups, and rendered
down fat from meat trimmings, serve
the same purpose. when clarified thor
oughly as lard or butter. Use beef
drippings for basting beef and game,
keep mutton dripping for frying cut
lets, fish. etc.
Too rapid boiling makes most vege-
tables tough. AS a rule vegetables
should be cooked uncovered.
Rice and maearoni require fast boil
ing.
Too much salt in gravy or soup may
be counteracted by putting in e pinch
Of brown sugar.
When finely chopped nuts are need
ed for salads or sandwiches, run the
nuts through the meat chopper.

NOW THE FLOWER SANDWICH.
Dainty MorseIs Which Are Served at
Debutsnte Luncheons and Teas.

The latest wrinkle of TIE dainty
housekeeper is to se:ne flower sand
wiches" to her guests at an afternoon
tea.
OF course, these delicacies are exclu-
slvely feminine, and no woman is so
foolish as to try to satisfy the mascu-
line appetite with such morsels.
If mtlaiy's tea or luncheon table hap
pens to be decorated with chrysanthe-
NUNS she serves chrysanthemum
sandwiches, or if sweet peas. violets,
roses, carnations, prevail in the dec
oTations, she will have her sandwiches
to match.
The fragrance is extracted from the
flowers and impaired to the sand
wiches by cutting the butter to be used
in thin blocks. wrapping it in cheese
cloth, smothering it with flowers and
letting it stand for several hours in a
tightly closed jar
The bread is cut in paper like slices,
spread with the perfumed butter and
sprinkled with petals of flowers.
The sandwiches are rolled and tied
with ribbon to match the flowers.
After they have been put back in the
jar with the flowers they are served
in a veritable bed of blooms, and if
they are not the most substantial
things in the food line they are at
least novel and dainty. and at present
are quite the thing at debutante lunch
cons and teas.

REMEDY FOR TORN MATING.
Darn with CoIors o. Raffia to Match
Straw

Often in moving a heavy piece Of
furniture the mating on the floor will
have an ugly hole torn in it. The torn
place is usually where it is the most
noticeable and cannot be covered with
a rug. There is an excellent way to
remedy this defect by darning the
place with rama OF coIors to match the
mating straw. II is much better than
threads and the work can be neatly
done. 1t may be necessary to run
heaVy cords across the work through
which the raffa is - be woven. The
threads are sewed in place with a large
daTnlng needle. Torn places on the
edge of mating can be remedied in
the same manner. II is best TO sew
mating together with a loose stitch.
using very heavy linen thread for the
purpose, but where this cannot be
done then use the regular mating
tacKs or ordinary tacks. placing first
one side, then the opposite side to pre-
vent the baggy appearance which so
often occurs. Never use a claw ham
mer to lift tacks from mating since it
invariably breaks the straw. Get an
old blunt chisel, place it beneath the
mating and tack head, pound gently
with the hammer and pry the tack up.
This will draw the tack out straight
and leave the mating unbroken. If
mating is used iH a room during the
winter, cover the floor with paper Gov
ering and pad lightly with newspapers.
The cold air cannot penetrate a floor
covering of that kind.

Candied ORANGES.

Candied orange is a great delicacy
and the housewife will find these are
nice to serve with the last course of
dinner.
Peel and quarter the oranges, make
a sfrup in the proportion of one pound
Of sugar to one pint of water. Let it
boil until it will harden in water;
then take it from the fire and dip the
quarters of oranges into the sirup; let
them drain on a fine sieve placed
over platter, so that the sirup will
not be wasted. Let them drain until
cool, when the sugar will crystalline.

TRUCKERS
ARE BUSY
Vegetable Growers in South Mis-
sissippi Begin Preparations
For New Crop.

Jackson, Dec. 21.-Despite the fact
that the year in truck farming in
Mississippi was notu niformily profit
able, extensive preparations are be-
ing made in the truck farming dis
tricts for next seasons operations, and
heavy increase of acreage is ex-
pected.
Many farmers are now engaged in
winter plowing in order to have the
soil in shape to plant early vegetables,
and orders for fertilizers are being
placed The advent Of the boil Wee
vii in the southern and southwestern
sections is of course expected to have
acreage, but there would doubtless be
a larger area devoted to thei industry
were it not for the invasion by this
pest.
While the last season was not one
of large profits for thet ruck farmers,
at the same time it can be said that
few of them lost considerable sums
of money. A fairly good idea of what
thet ruck industry means to Missis
sippi is furnished by the figures re-
Gently complied showing that the
Crystal Springs neighborhood alone
shipped SIS cars of fruits and veget-
able, valued at $495.475.2S. In other
words practically half million dol
lars was turned loose among the peo-
pie of Copiah county living within
a radius of twenty miles of Crystal
Springs, and many of these farmers
planted cotton and corn in their truck
farming fields after they had harvest
ed their cabbage, tomatoes, beans
peas, etc.

THREW Her own BODY
BEFORE MOVING TRAIN
Daughter of Rich Merchant Who Sur
prised Friends by Marrying Crina-
man Comes to Sad End-story of
the Tragedy.

Chicago, ILL.,, Dec. 21.-Deluded with
the fear that she was to be the victim
of highbinders, Mrs. George w. Wong,
a Chicago girl and the daughter of a
wealthy retired merchant early this
morning hacked off the head of her
three-year-old daughter with an ak,
gave wood alcohol to her three sons
and later threw herself in front of
Burlington passenger train. receiving
fatal injuries.
The tragedies occurred at the Wong
home at Plano. ILL.,, and the town was
thrown into a turmoil of excitement.
It is said this afternoon that two
of the children who drank the wood
alcohol will recover.
Mrs. Wong was the daughter of
Julius Ehlers, formerly wholesale
notion dealer on the West Side. Sew
eral years ago she startled her friends
and the social circles in which she
moved by eloping with George Wong,
highly educated Chinaman. They
had been married thirteen years and
had four children.
Pinned to the dress of the headless
body of the little girl was found a
note which read: Thank God all
is over and that no one will lead my
little girl the life l have been COM
PEELED to suffer"
The body of the woman, horrible
mutilated, was found on the tracks
about daylight this morning. The
coroner is investigating the case.

HERLONG'S DEATH
WAS TRAGIC one

Mr.. Lee Prater returned this morn
ing from Woodstock, Fla, being ac-
companied by his widowed sister, Mrs.
Lille Herlong, whose husband was
killed by a negro in a lumber camp
last week.
1t appears that the murder of Mr..
w. A. Herlong was unprovoked and
amounted almost to an assassination.
He had some trouble with a negro
who was working in the camp. The
negro had been very impudent to Mr..
Herlong and he gave the negro a de-
served whipping. When he had the me-
gro down, the latter promised If Mr..
Herlong would let him up that he
would leave and would not bother him
any more. On this condition Mr.. Her
long released the negro, who walked
off a short distance and while Mr..
Herlong was not looking, he drew a
pistol and fred with the result that
Mr. Herlong was almost instantly
killed.
Mr.. Herlong was known to a great
many people in Hattiesburg, having
married Miss Lille Prater, one of the

BAD BLACK
TELLS STORY
TO OFFICERS
Claims That He Was Wounded
in Attack By Assassin
at Leaksville.

Constable C. f. Tucker yesterday
arrested a negro man on the North
eastern Railroad just south of the old
cracker factory and placed him in Jail
on charge of trespassing on the
property OF the railroad.
The negro gave his name as Alfred
Jones and claimed that he came up
from Lumberton on a freight train.
II appears that this negro has been
in serious trouble somewhere and that
the trouble is of recent origin. This
is indicated by new pistol shot
wound in the negros side. He had
been shot in the left side, the ball
passing out in front and barely miss
ing his lungs.
Asked as to how he came to be
wounded, Jones stated that he was
wounded in a house at Leakesville;
that he was in a house with some
other negroes and that one of them
went away and soon after he went
away the lights in the house were put
out by some one and the negro who
had left returned and fired into the
crowd and he was shot in the side, and
left after the shooting.
The fact that the negro is wounded
and tells a rather unbelievable story
about it, makes his case rather sus-
picious. and it is more than likely
that he has been in trouble somewhere
very recently and is wanted elsewhere.

CASE
Will GO over
FOR PRESENT
Retail Lumber Dealers VIII Press
the Matter Again After
the Holidays

jackson, Dec. 22.-The celebrated
anti-trust cases pending before the
Mississippi supreme court in which
the defendant corporations are the
american Snuff Company and the
Mississippi-Louisiana Retail Lumber
Dealers' Association, will be set for
fe4rgument Immediately after the
christmas holidays.
These cases have experienced a
rather checkered career in the courts.
The disposal of the lumber trust suit
<sas delayed because of the desire of
large number of attorneys not d.
Iectly interested in this specific case,
but representing other corporate in
terests, to file briefs attacking the
validity of the antitrust statutes. Just
as the court was about to prepare its
opinion disposing of this suit, and also
that pending against the alleged SNUFF
trust, the death of Justice s. S. Cal
hoon occurred, and it became neces-
sary for the governor to appoint a
special Judge for each cases Justice
Fletcher being disqualified by reason
of his previous connection with the
litigation as attorney general.
The present state of the docket,
however, will enable the court to set
both cases for hearing early in jan
uary, ex-Chief Justice Campbell serv-
ing as special Judge in one, and Hon.
G. H. Alexander in the other. The
fact that there are two special judges,
although the two cases involve prac-
tically the same legal points, of course,
increases the probability of dissent
ing opinion being rendered.
