For the Cook.

To Make Beef Tender and Keep it
sh.-Tough steak is greatly i'm
proved by being washed in a rather
strong solution of soda and water.
Then wiring a cheesecloth bag out of
vinegar, put the steak in it, and hang
in the cellar where there is current
of air. Keep hung for a couple of
days, wringing the bag out of vine-
gar twice day, and you will find the
meat as tender as desired. This is
also an excellent way to keep meat
fresh in warm weather.
Flavor of Fried Vegetables. Most
of the stews, soups, praised meats
and pot roasts are very much i'm
proved if the flavoring vegetables
which they contain. such as carrots,
turnips, onions, celery or green
peppers, are fried in a little fat be-
fore being cooked with the meat.
This need not complicate the prepare
ton of the meat or increase the num-
Der of utensils used. for the meat
itself is usually scared over in fat and
the vegetables can be cooked in the
same fat before the browning of the
meat
Simple Remedy.-Next time you
burn any milk, take the saucepan off
the fire and stand it at once in a
bowl of cold water. Put pinch of
salt in the saucepan, give the milk a
stir, and you will find that the burnt
taste has almost, if not entirely, dis
appeared. Farmer and Stockman.

Washington Opposes Negro.

Washington, June 30.-If Presi-
dent Taft persists in his intention to
name negro from Atlanta, Ca, as
collector of the Washington port, he
will find himself in more than a peck
of trouble. The mere mention that
he proposes to do such a thing has
aroused no little indignation among
residents of the city.
Washington, although submitting,
will never be entirely reconciled to
the fact that it has a negro recorder
of deeds. Now, if the administration
forces upon the city negro collector
of the port, it will be heaping insult
upon injury, for Washington still
clings to its Southern tendencies.
There is more Catarrh in this Sec
ton of the country that all other dis
eases put together, and until the last
few years was supposed to be incur
able. For a great many years doc
tors pronounced it local disease and
prescribed local remedies, and by
constantly failing to cure with local
treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be q
constitutional disease and therefore
requires constitutional treatment.
Hall Catarrh Cure, manufactured by
F. j. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is
the only constitutional cure on the
market. 1t is taken internally in
doses from 10 drops to teaspoonful.
1t acts direction on the blood and
mucous surfaces of the system. They
offer one hundred dollars for any
case it fails to cure. Send for circu-
lars and testimonials. Address,
