MAGISTRATES TO
PRODUCE BOOKS

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL.
GEORGETOWN. Del, Nov ia new
ruling OF the Sussex County Levy Court
which requires the Justices of the peace
throughout the county to appear before
the body with their books when they pre-
sent bills is not meeting with approval,
and much criticism is being heard from
the magistrates. II is said that the new
ruling was passed by the court because
several OF the newly appointed magis-
trates were not thoroughly familiar with
the rates charged for issuing warrants.
etc, and that often they would make out
bills and present them to the Levy Court
for services performed when they had no
right to make charges.
One Justice OF the county, at the last
meeting Of the court. presented a bill for
fifty cents for each search warrant issued
in connection with a summons to be
served by the constable when as a mat
ter Of fact no search warrant was need
ed. for the summons in itself gave the
constable authority to make search The
protest IS mainly from those who under
stand the workings OF the office, and
/ they state that it is a great inconveni-
ence for them to come here from a dis
tance at each meeting Of the court and
present their books.

The discerning housewife will very
readily appreciate the possibilities OF
the sweet pepper and hail it as a valu-
able adjunct.
A few hints are here given which
would add greatly TO any menu. For
cooks day out there is no more APP
petizing or more easily prepared dish
than cOralled ham. Put a slice OF
ham in cold water and let it come to a
boil. then pour off the water and fry
1t to "a crisp brown. Make a cream
gravy, season highly, add a dash of
nutmeg and teaspoonful Of Worces-
tershire sauce. Place the ham on
platter and pour around it the
gravy.
Chop one good sized red pepper and
then sprinkle it over the gravy around
the ham so as 20 form distinct coral
band. A most delicious combination
is that of tomatoes and peppers stew
ed together. For moderate quantity
peel six fair sized tomatoes and slice
two large green peppers. Add a ta-
blespoonful Of sugar. a piece of butter
the size of a walnut and season to
taste. To thicken add two teaspoon
fuls Of flour and stew until done.
Nothing could be more palatable as
an entree than stuffed peppers done
Mexican style. To prepare the pep
pres cut off the tops and remove the
seeds, then place in cold water foi
half an hour to harden. Allow fol
each pepper a half cup Of minced cold
meat or chicken with one-thirC
quantity bread crumbs. Also allow
slice of breakfast bacon to each pep,

chopped onion and parsley, also tea
spoonful of Worcestershire sauce. Eli

special 10 THE EVENING JOURNAL

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL
SMYRNA, Del. Nov. 11-Many peo-
pie are still talking of a sermon
preached recently in the Methodist
Church by the Rev. DR.. Robert Watt
on the speakeasy question. The preach

discussed the question in a manner
that made Smyrna sit up and take
notice.
After discussing the character Of the
speakeasy and saying that a keeper Of
a speakeasy will swear to lie TO save
himself" DIR. Watt said;
.'Well. have we any such places in
Smyrna? It is so said. Personally,

politicians. They will have an oppor-
tunity to discover their mistake. Per-

CROCHET WORK
ALWAYS POPULAR

There is no wane in the liking Of
crochet work The newest bedspread
is an artistic affair made of crochet
squares done with carpet warp which
alternate with squares of linen crash
edged with feather or other fancy
stitching. The work is coarse and ef-
fective, and because of the large yarn
employed is no train on the eyes
Crochet table doilies for polished
luncheon tables are coveted by every
woman with a liking for effective hand
work, but they entail a great amount
of time and labor. Lovely ones in
quaint antique patterns may be found
at the exchanges or ordered through
them, but prices are high. A simpler
set has damask centers with crochet
edges. Fine damask comes for the
purpose in round or oval pieces of sew
eral sizes patterned with shamrock,
thistle, rose, or feur-de-lis. The dam
ask is hemmed and then buttonholed
stitched sparsely on the edge and the
crochet work is begun in the button
hole stitching. Crochet books give
patterns for such pieces.

VARIOUS METHODS
OF WHITENING TEETH

Some teeth are of a yellowish tinge
naturally and no amount of care can
make them glistening white; they can.
however, be made a better color by
constant brushing with a whitening
powder and by occasional bleaching by
a dentist who understands his busi-
ness.
Chewing a twig of althea bush is
said to whiten the teeth. but care must
be taken that the pulp is not swal-
lowed.
Rubbing the surface occasionally
with the inside of lemon rind is also
whitening. nor is It as much of an acid
as is usually considered.
The practice of using peroxide of hy
drogen on the teeth. as a bleach. shoulC
not be INDUCED in without the advic,
of your dentist.
