This is an old Dutch recipe that has
been handed down in our family: Six
sood-sized apples peeled and sliced
one cup of molasses, one cup sugar,
little salt and cinnamon. Make a
dough of one scant pint of flour, one
teaspoon soda, one teaspoon creaml
tartar, one-half teaspoon salt. Rub
one-half tablespoon of shortening into
flour and mix with buttermilk or sour
milk to make it right to roll. Put
one-half of the apples in a deep agate
pan or kettle, season with one-half
cup molasses, one-half cup sugar. salt
and cinnamon. Divide the dough into
two parts and roll one-half to size to
cover apples Put in another layer of
apples with remainder of molasses,
sugar, salt and cinnamon. Cover with
other half of dough, with Sits cut in
top. Put in one cup of hot water,
cover closely, and cook on top of
stove from 80 to 45 minutes, taking
care not to scorch.-Exchange.

PROPER CARE OF DISHCLOTH.
Useful Article That Too Often Suf-
fers from Neglect.

This seems the most uninviting of
subjects, yet not more so than the
12x12 crash when it has been forgot
ten by the little unsophisticated
housewife.
There are housekeepers who have
delved into corners and excited them
selves unduly over surface dust, and
some who have waded knee deep into
an ocean of theoretic germs, but have
overlooked the practical dishcloth. |
say it in the singular, advisedly, be-
cause they have but one. They use
it to the death and then they Gre
mate it in the kitchen range There
follows brief period of cleanliness,
afetr which the old neglect begins.
No woman understands the first
principles of hygiene until she has an
instructive feeling that it is best to
buy six dishcloths and to treat them
to weekly bath in the regular wash,
as she does the tea towels.

PRESIDENT TRANSMITS REPORT
IN SPECIAL MESSAGE TO
CONGRESS.
GATUN DAM ALL RIGHT
ONLY ENEMIES OF PRESENT POL
ICY ARE THOSE WHO WANT
NO CANAL.

washington. - Any attack made
hereafter on the lock type of the Pam
anna canal, according to the opinion
expressed by President Roosevelt in a
message transmitting to Congress
Wednesday the report made by the
engineers who recently visited the ca
nal zone with President-Elect Taft, lis
in reality merely an attack upon the
policy of building any canal at all"
The report, in Mr.. Roosevelt's opin-
ion, shows in clearest fashion that the
Congress was wise in the position it
took and that it would be an mex
cusable folly to change from the pro-
posed lock canal to a sea level canal.
Il commend to you," he says to Con-
gress, "the most careful consideration
of the report. They show that the
only criticism that can be made of the
work on the isthmus is that there has
sometimes been an almost excess of
caution in providing against possible
trouble. AS to the Gatun dam itself,
they show that not only is the dam
safe, but that on the whole the plan
already adopted would make it unnec-
essarily high and strong and accord
ingly they recommend that the height
he reduced by twenty feet, which
change in the plans have accordingly
directed"
President Roosevelt says that the
engineers who made the report on the
Panama canal "are of all the men in
their profession within or without the
United States, the men who are on the
whole best qualified to pass upon
these very questions which they ex-
amined."
The engineers report that as the Ga
tun earth dam was the central point
OIL discussion they gave it under in
structions from Mr. Taft, first CON
sideration in the light of all new evil
dence" and they add that the type of
dam now under consideration is one
which meets with our unanimous ap-
proval."
They say they are Satisfied that
there will be no dangerous or objec-
tionable seepage through the materials
under the base of the dam; nor are
they so soft as to be liable 'oto be
pushed aside by the weight of the pro-
poseu udln SO as TO cause dangerous
settlement. We are also satisfied
that the materials available and which
1t is proposed to use are suitable and
can readily be placed to form a tight,
stable and permanent dam"
They report that they do not find
any occasion for changing the type of
canal that has been adopted. A change
to sea level plan at the present time
would add greatly to the cost and time
OF construction, without compensating
advantages, either in capacity of the
canal or safety of navigation, and
hence would be a public misfortune"
The engineers who compose the
board are Frederick Steers, James G.
Schuyler, Arthur p Davis, Isham Ran
dolph, Henry d. Allen, John r. Free
man and Allen Hazen.
