Saxon Sausage.

Saxon sausage comes to us from
the Germans. Cut six large apples of
fine quality into eight parts, sprinkle
them slightly with sugar and CHINA
mon and let them stand a few min
utes. Meantime put few currants
on a plate, cover them with little
lukewarm water and let them soak
a while until about half a pound of
sausage has been fried. Then add
the apples and also the currants after
draining. Remove the sausage as
soon as it is done, garnish with the
fruit and make a gravy of the drip
pings after pouring off the grease on
top by adding glass of Rhine wine
or water and mixing with flour in the
usual way Buckwheat cakes taste
particularly good with sausage cooked
in this manner, and so much fruit is
served with it that it is not necessary
to have any more at the same meal.

SOME EGG RECIPES
NEW AND OLD METHODS OF
SERVING THEM.
Cooked La Martin, In French Style
They Make a Delicious Lunch
con 0ish-stuffed Eggs Also
Will be Enjoyed.

Eggs a la Martin.-Have heating a
shallow baking dish that will hold five
broken eggs without crowding. Melt
teaspoon of butter in a saucepan,
add one heaping teaspoon of -four, and
when well blended add one cup Of
rich milk or thin cream, if you have
It. Then add one-eighth. of a teaspoon
Of salt, four tablespoonfuls of grated
cheese. Stir well, remove from fire
and pour into hot baking dish. Then
carefully drop into the mixture five
eggs without breaking the yolks; set
in a hot oven and as soon as the
whites are set, remove, sprinkle
pinch of salt and a dash of cayenne
on each egg and little chopped pars-
ley over the whole, and serve at once.
This is delicious luncheon dish and
easily prepared. 1t is a French dish
and is seldom seen in America.
Eggs en- Filets.-Butter a pan that
may be set in the oven. Mix as many
eggs as needed with a spoonful of
brandy and pinch of salt Pour into
pan and bake five minutes in a hot
oven. Cool and cut In slices and dip
these in a light batter. Fry in very
hot fat for two minutes. Lift with
skinner and drain. Serve garnished
with parsley.
Stuffed Eggs.-Six hard boiled eggs.
Peel and cut in lengthwise halves.
Take the whites and save. Then take
yolks, add salt and pepper and little
mustard, little lemon juice and a
pinch of paprika, and last of all about
six chopped olives. Mix well and
place back in whites which you leave
in halves. Serve on lettuce leaves
with chopped parsley. This will serve
six persons, giving each two halves.
Eggs Nova Scotian.-Put a poached
egg on top of fiat Goldfish cake, pour
over it cream or tomato sauce and
send to the table. The real Nova
Scotia way is to place lots of butter
on each egg, with pepper, as the fish
will make the egg salt enough. This
is nice breakfast dish.
Eggs a la Creme.-Poach six eggs
and arrange on platter, each egg on a
slice of nicely toasted bread. Melt
tablespoonful of flour and butter in
saucepan: when melteu pour over
pint of milk and stir until cooked
(about five minutes); season with pep
per, salt, little Worcestershire sauce
and tomato catsup, pour over eggs and
serve.

JUDGE LYONS CHARGE.
Says Prohibition is Doing Great Coed
For North Carolina.

Wadesboro, N. c., April 19.-The
April term of the Superior Court
convened at Wadeeh~~c yesterday
morning, with Ju3ge C. c. Lyos,
presiding.
In charging the grand jury Judge
lyon remarked that in his expert
ence he had never known an Office
to seek a man, that usually it was the
nan running after the office; and
after he had secured the office he
should be compelled to do the duty
which devolved upon him and kee1
lis business. He urged the grand
jury to investigate all the officers of
the county and see that the work OF
the county was being done in ac-
cordance with the law.
Judge Lyon said that from his own
observation the prohibition law has
done more for North Carolina than
any law passed in fifty years. 81
don't know nor care what others
think of prohibition said the judge,
"but from my own observation it
nas done and is doing great good
IN North Carolina; but even whether
tnis is true or not it is your business
as members Of the grand jury to see
that this law is enforced" The
grand jury was also reminded Of the
law against gambling. The judge
said, "Betting on the price of cot
ton, generally knov!n rs the selling
of futures, is gambling, and any
party engaged in that or any other
game Of chance is a competent wit
ness against the other. Gambling is
not honest; it is larceny, pure and
simple"
