HOW TO A TREAT A HAM.
An Old Virginia Invention That Has
Acquired the Dignity of an Instltu-
ton.
Charleston. W. Va, Free Press

Charleston, W. Va, Free Press.)
That friend OF ours who laid in a
fine old Virginia ham as part OF the
stock OF Christmas provisions and
since writes pleasantly, 1--WE sawed
off a couple of slices for breakfast, "
is not Virginian nor resident OF
Virginia Including that part OF
West Virginia not honeycombed with
gas wells and coal mines). We
should have known that il we hadn't
known the writer. We are not ad-
yised whether the work was done at
a sawmill or whether the old ham
was adjusted to the sawhorse in the
woodshed and mutilated by hand. In
either case 1--WE hope our friend will
not see this paragraph), the proper
uses of old ham and the usages OF
that civilization OF which the said
old ham is one OF the finest products
were utterly disregarded. 1t would
be in lust as good form to split, maui,
chop, chisel or dynamite an old ham
as to "saw" it. You might as safely
run a railway through a Chinese
graveyard, insult the ancestors OF
Japanese, propose a Hindu's hump
back cow for packing housepurposes
or water a Scotchman's whisky as
try to saw the ham OF an old Vir-
gilman household. 1t belongs with
the family portraits, the Colonial
silver. the ancestral claw-footed fur
niture OF the mansion. 1t is to be
eaten, OF course, after it has rested
for a suitable length OF time on the
centre table In the parlor, but under
such conditions and with such cere-
monv as become a time-hOnored In
stitutiOn.
We shall not insult the Virginians
land non-coal-producing West Vir-
ginians) who read these columns by
telling them how a ham should be
prepared for the table; nor shall we
fiatter those who are not Virginians
by assuming that they might learn.
Cooking q ham, one might say, Is
not to be learned at all; it is q mat
ter of tradition, an inheritance, al
most an instinct. 1t Is sufficient to
say that if it isn't done right it ought
not to be done at all. A ham is bet
ter running wild in the timber than
sawed" and improperly cooked. 1t
may be said and must be admitted,
that hams are produced, cured,
boiled, baked and eaten elsewhere
than on Virginian soil and especially
In the neighboring States.
In the reflected light Of civilization
many things are done in very correct
imitation of the true pattern, and
what is more to the point, there is in
other parts OF the world a strain OF
Virginian blood that insures the prop
er observance OF the traditions OF
the old States. That does not i'm
pair the force of the foregoing obser-
vations. We haven't time to go to
an encyclopedia to find out where the
first ham came from, but we are sure
it was eaten raw unless it was eaten
In Virginia.

And the Cat Came Back.
Durham Daily Sum-

A remarka BILE cat story comes from
Lancaster, Pa, and is vOuched for
by the Philadelphia Press. Last
summer the family OF r. w. MADDEN,
a well-known Pennsylvania railroad
engineer, went to Sea Isle City, n. j
to spend several months, taking
along the family pet, a big maltese
cat named Minnie. Friends who Wis
tied them by the sea brought a num-
Der of children, who received the at
tentions usually bestowed on the cat,
and the animal gave unmistakable
signs of jealousy and resentment and
finally disappeared. At the close OF
September the MADDEN family went
back to Lancaster mourning the
cat as gone forever. They had adj
vertispd in the newspapers, but moth
ing came Of it. This week the family
heard Il familiar scratching at the
kitchen door, and when it was
opened in bounded q big maltese cat,
which ran straight to the chair on
which Minnie had always slept. The
lost had returned, as was proved by
peculiar markings on the face or tail.
From Sea Isle City to Lancaster, as
the crow flies or a eat walks, is 1877
miles, over which Minnie had come
home. How she crossed the Della
ware at Camden, whether she beat
the ferry boat company out OF fare
or crossed on the ice, can never be
known In all the wide range OF it's
gleanings about eats did Dumb Ami
mails ever beat these adventures OF
Minnie?

Does 1t Pay or Not?
(OxfOrd Banner. J

Mr.. Merchant, you who so fire.
quently say that you don't know
whether advertising pays or not
how is it that you are familiar with
the new things that come out in the
way Of clothes, hats, shoes, hosiery,
neckwear, shirts, underwear, milli-
merry, dress goods, agricultural imple-
ments, machinery, in fact all kinds OF
products? Never read ADVERTISE
ments, do you?
1t is absurd for people to say that
they don't read advertisements, and
it is absurd to claim that advertising
does not pay.
Every merchant in every town
should advertise, first of all, in his
home newspapers. He cannot make
himself we'll known otherwise; he
cannot do as much business as he
wants to do otherwise.
He need spend only in proportion
to the business he does in a year.
1t will be a beginning and it will
pay-but the greatest care should be
taken, since only small space can be
used, to make each advertisement as
full of meat as possible-make it
stand out conspicuously in type ef-
feet, and make the reading matter
say something and mean it.

Getting at The Taxes.
(Ch arlOtte Chronicle J

We are indebted to The High Point
Enterprise for light on the legisla-
ton in the matter of tax assess
ments. The new plan ought to
bring about a measure of fair equali-
cation. The Enterprise says that
the law passed by the Legislatu re
conferred upon the Corporation Com
mission the authority of a estate
Tax Commission" There is to be a
tax assessor for each county and the
act is very specific in requiring the
Corporation Commission as State
Tax Commission, to visit each
county and instruct the assessors
and to finally pass upon the equita-
bleness of the standards of valuation
applied in the various counties in re-
assessing property. The act multi
plies the work of the Corporation
Commission considerably and like
wise provides for $500 additional
compensation for each of the three
mem bers. These county assessors
are newly created and will have SUI
pervisiOn of the work of the town
ship and ward assessors in listing
both real and personal property and
assessing real estate, d work that
recurs each fourth year under the
North Carolina system of assessment.
The appointment of these tax assess
sors will probably be made by the
Corporation Commission early in
April when the new method for tax
assessment throughout the State
h0o % h. H.,

nue. producer is one of the best num-
