Scissors in the Kitchen
J. D. MOORE.

If you want to see a pair of scis-
sors put to all sorts of queer uses
Just watch some young housekeeper
getting vegetables ready for dinner
or preparing a salad. It is declared
that in nine cases out of every ten
things can be cut better with the scis-
sors than with a knife.
Especially in the preparing of sal.
ads should the kitchen scissors an
peal to the housekeeper looking for
labor-saving schemes. Dicing apples
and celery is matter of only a mo-
ment when done in this way, and a
Few green peppers may be shipped ur
In less time than it takes to tell
about it, says the New York Sun.
The easiest way to dice green pep
pers Is to cut off several long slivers
the whole length of the pepper. Hold
these firmly in one hand and with the
scissors clip through the entire
bunch. Several stalks of asparagus
may be clipped through in the same
way.
For following out a tomato pre-
vious to stuf1ng a pair of scissors en-
aoles one to remove practically all
the pulp without breaking the skin.
For fruit salads scissors are equally
useful, as the fine skin which sapa-
rates the sections of grape fruit and
oranges is easily clipped off in this
way.
But fruit and vegetable salads are
not the only things for which the
kltcnen scissors may be brought into
use. Cold boiled chicken and lobster
are easily cut in pieces, and, surpris-
ing as 1t may seem to those who
have not tried it, chicken Joints and
lobster shells are no obstacles when
scissors are used.
The hard parts of oysters and
clans are neatly removed with a. pair
or scissors, and slices of cold tongue
and ham are often much improved in
appearance if, before sending to the
table, they are trimmed into shape in
the same way.
When it comes to preparing cold
vegetables for relocating in cream
sauce. or for the many popular disLes
au gratin, the kitchen scissors are
again a blessing. Cold boiled pota-
toes, caulifower, asparagus, oyster
plant, In fact, any and every vegeta-
Die, may easily be shipped into pieces
OF the required size Doing such
WORK with a pair scissors is not only
much quicker and easier, but the saw
fng OF ones hands is important. No
woman will believe until she tries for
nerself how great a 1abor-sayer a
pair OF scissors may prove In her
kitchen.-Exchange.

Fair Play i'm Sports,

I believe in work, and I do not he
lleve in sacrificing work to play: but
most emphatically believe also in
play. A boy or girl who has a heal
thy body will be all the better fit for
serious work, and if the health comes
through vigorous sports pursued in
an honorable, straightforward man
ner, not only the mind but the char
acter, is benefited.
10 the boys I wish to say a spe-
clal word. I emphatically believe in
manl1ness, in courage, in physical adj
dress, but I believe quite as much
In good comradeship and a spirit of
falr play. I hope that whenever Won
enter contest you will do all that
is IN you to win, and yet you will re-
member that it is far better to fail
man to win by unfairness, by any
underhand trickery. Keep in mind
that it is only by persistent effort in
the face of encouragement that anv
OF us ever does anything that is real
ly worth while doing.
ioiio" WHO gives up when he
is once beaten is made of mighty poor
stun, and If he does give up as soon
as ne is beaten in sport he does not
stand much chance of success in the
serious conflicts of after life. The
true spirit, the spirit which wins vic
tories in after life, is the spirit which
nights hard to succeed, but which
takes defeat in good nature and with
a resolute determination to try again.
1t is a good beginning for this Sc
rlous work of after life if on the plav-
grounds you learn how to cooperate
with your fellows and to do your best
TO win, while at the same time treat
ing your own interests with fairness
and courtesy.-Theodore Roosevelt.

When Baby is q Year Old.

By the time baby is a year old its
diet should begin to include scraped
meat and fruit juices and the whites
of eggs, says DR.. Leonard Keene
Hirshberg in the February Define
ator.
Begin with wine-glass of chicken
broth or bouillon, fed from a spoon,
and as these things are increased,
gradually decrease the amount of bot
tie food. Soon after it turns it's first
year the child should learn to drink
from a small cup. After that it's
meals may be reduced to five a day,
with an occasional drink of orange
juice and plenty of water in the in
tervals.
The first meal, on awaking in the
morning, had better have modified
milk as it's chief constituent, with
half as much infant food or strained
oatmeal added. The second meal, in
the middle of the morning, may be a
REPETITION of the first. Early in the
afternoon a gill or so of chicken
broth, or half as much beef Juice,
may be given, and this may be va
r1ed, every few days, with the white
of an egg boiled, say, for one minute.
The two remaining meals had better
have milk as their mainstay. After
a month or so of such diet, if the
baby is in good health, it's mid-morn-
ing meal may begin to include dry
toast, zwieback, thin oatmeal and
other cereals, and it's afternoon din
ner may include a whole egg, soft
boiled or poached, and teaspoonful
of finely chopped raw beef. Fruits
should be given freely, but it is al
ways best to have them we'll cooked.

RACE
Engineers Warned Not

Negro Firemen

Atlanta, MAY 26-New facts. bear.
ing upon the race issue involved in the
strike OF foremen on the Georgia rail
road, came to light today, From In
vestigation along the right-ofway oil
the railroad, 1t was learned that most
of the reported instances of throw
ing stones at trains were pure fabri-
cations. The danger from such mis-
siles thrown with malicious intent,
was one OF the reasons given why
the engineers refused 10 take out their
trains, thereby tieing up the entire
system Eye witnesses at the stop
ping places of the railroad, during the
first day of the strike say that in
stead of stone throwing, crowds OF
men from rural districts gathered
around the engines, many of them
personal friends OF the engineers. and
pleaded with them not to force race
issue by continuing TO run trains on
which white firemen had been re-
placed by negroes
The engineers were given to under
stand that it might be dangerous to
continue such runs.
II is learned authorltatively that
the strikers are willing to take out
engines drawing the mails If requested
to do so. They have reserved the
right, however, to say whether they
will carry passengers at the same
time.
Another heavy blow was dealt to-
day TO the transportation in the ter
ritory, where railroad service has
ceased for nearly four days, by the
advent OF heavy rains which stalled
many of the automobiles and the long
wagon trains which had been trans
porting food and other necessities.
