him returns from publications. On sew
eral occasions he had written to his
sister postal cards signed walt Ma

of verse. She thought walt Mason's"

CANNED CARROTS AND BEETS
viii Be Found as Acceptable During
the Winter as the More ordi-
nary Sweet Preserves.

For carrots, scrape the carrots, put
into jars, fill with clear cold water,
adding salt or not, as you wish. Pro-
ceed as for canning tomatoes. Per
haps you would like to put up some
beets. If so, mash, and boil but one
hour, pour over cold water, remove
skins, fill jars. If large beets, quarter
them. Fill jars to overflowing with
cold water, but no salt. Soak one
hour Fasten down springs and test
each day for three days.
Have put up lot of string beans,
string and mash beans, cut in inch
lengths. Fill jars, add teaspoonful of
salt. Fill to overflowing with cold
water. Let cook three hours or one
hour for three days. To open the
Jars, run knife under rubber and top
will come off easily. The vegetables
are so much nicer and cheaper than
can be bought. Put up two pecks of
string beans. Cost me 30 cents. Saved
$1.10 on them. Two quarts of beets at
cents will fill two quart jars. Cost,
2h cents a jar.

NEW INVENTION,

Firman @. Brown, 500 Capitol
ST., Charleston, W. Va, has re-
Gently invented what he calls a
Food Warmer in which restau-
rants and hotels may send out
meals to offices, apartments and
private residences. 1t is one of
the most simple, unique and prac-
tical inventions of the age. the
Food Warmer is made in two sizes.
The smaller one is designed for
workingmen, with a capacity for
one or two meals. 1t can be car
ried in the hand. The larger
warmer weighs II to Is pounds
with capacity for about twelve
meals. 1t is intended to be used
in winter or summer resorts to con-
vey food from the hotel to the
cottage.
The mechanism of the Food
Warmer consists of a tin box with
a handle and door in front. On
the inside are several shelves, on
which the food in tin or earthen-
ware vessels is placed. Beneath
the whole outfit is an alcohal or
gasoline burner, which will keep
the food warm at least an hour
without refilling the lamp. The
cost of warming for a meal is esti-
mated to be about two or three
cents. From. $500 to $40O worth
of food may be carried and kept
warm in this way. with little or no
inconvenience.

Washington, October 5.-Ex-
Gov. p, b. S. Pinchback, one time
Governor of Louisiana, has been
appointed to $500 position in
the New York branch of the In
teinal Revenue Service.
In Cincinnati, where Gov.
Pinchback went to school, he was
known as Pinckney Stewart in his
boyhood days. Later he took his
fathers name. He ran on the
river" and, reaching Louisiana,
remained there. At one election
in 1872, he was elected Governor,
Representative, and United States
Senator. He wanted to serve as
Senator, but the Senate held him
out for three years, and finally re-
fused to admit him. In the House
he met a similar fate. But ne
served as Governor of his State,
and has enjoyed high distinction
on that account among the people
of his race. He used to be con-
spicuous figure in Republican
National conventions.
