MANY WAYS OF MAKING SALAD
Mayonnalse without an Eso Can Be
Made With the Aid Of the Fol-
lowing Recipe.

Mayonnaise without Egg. Few peo-
pie know one can make a perfect look.
Ing and perfect tasting stiff mayor
naise without an egg. Place a tea
spoonful Of plain mustard. mixed with
few drops of cold water, In a small
bowl Add oil, not necessarily drop
by drop. but still rather slowly. Stir
vigorously all the while. AS It thick.
ems too much to handle comfortably.
thin with lemon Juice or vinegar A
little tarragon vinegar is always a
great addition to any salad. After
the mayonnaise is finished season ac-
cording to taste and discretion. There
Is hardly any limit to the quantity of
oil that may be used. Less or more
mustard may be used, but It must be
borne in mind that II is the made
mustard that holds the oil together
generally make a large quantity of
mayonnaise at once, using a dessert
spoonful of mustard and as much oil
as | can afford-enough for several
meals. II keeps most excellently In a
covered jar In q cool place.
New Salad.--Cut OF crusts of white
bread (fresh), cut in diamond shape
and toast light brown. On one-half
piece CRATE the yolk of hard boiled
egg, on the other half white of egg
minced fine, and then place on the
slice sardine: on this lay three strips
OF sweet green peppers, crossed, put
ting over the whole nice mayonnaise
dressing the bread is then placed In
a nest of crisp lettuce leaves, and a
thin slice of lemon is placed on each
plate. This is a most appetizing way
of serving sardines. Try it.
Philippine Salad.-Cut tomatoes,
large white onions, green and sweet
red peppers, also cucumbers, in very
thin slices, add a good French dress
ing and let the salad stand for an
hour at least on ice in a cool place.
Garnish with crisp lettuce leaves be-
fore serving This makes pretty
dish If the different vegetables used
are laid in separate circles, alternate
ly. The seeds of the peppers must
be carefully removed before they are
sliced and the cucumbers peeled.

sPLIT-Loe DRAG FOR ROADS
Costs Very Little and Make Good,
serviceable Hignways--It Is the
Poor Mans Friend.

I'VE have more than once pointed
out" says Southern Good Roads, that
where bond issue or a heavy road
tax is impossible owing to the
strength of the opposition or to pow
crty, there can be nevertheless per-
fectly good earth roads built at very
small expense. The chief thing Is CO
operation among the people Of the
community. There Is no excuse for
a bad road in any village or farming
section-none whatever For the
split-log drag is the poor mans friend,
and with II any people, however poor.
however far from the day Of macad-
am, can make and enjoy good roada
Let us take, for example, a stretch
Of bad road in the country. Say It is
ten miles in length and that ten
farmers live at intervals along its
course. II is very bad in summer and
rext to impossible In winter. Those
ter farmers decide that they are not
going to put up with holes and ruts
and washouts any longer, and they
come together. They agree that they
will divide the road into ten sections
OF one mile each. and every farmer is
to take charge of a mile They select
one of their number to act as fore
man of all. They fall to work and
build split-log drags. These cost prac-
tically nothing. The Office of public
roads, United States department of ag-
riculture. will gladly furnish informa-
ton as to the construction, and II pos
slble will doubtless send an expert to
give preliminary instructions.
when the farmers have everything
ready, the foreman calls them out
after each rain to drag their several
sections This is repeated until with
in an amazingly short time that miser-
able old road has been transformed
into a splendid highway, smooth, we'll
drained, well-shaped, a thing of beauty
and a Joy forever, without the expend-
iture of enough money for the farmers
to miss it. They receive incalcula-
BILE benefit from the road, and it
serves as an object lesson to the rest
of their county, causing others to go
and do likewise until in the course
of no great time the road situation
In the county has been revolutionized
and the way paved for the day when
permanent stone roads will be built.

HEARST And BRYAN
new COMBINATION
Yellow Editor and Democratic
Jonah YOkGd

Washington, April 14.-Considera-
BILE interest is felt in democratic Cir
cles today over the burytng of the
Ratchet between William Randolph
Hearst and William Jennings Bryan,
both of whom have been in Washing
ton for several days
While here Hearst and Bryan met
at dinner given by Nathan lStraus,
of New York, who is quoted as au-
thority for the statement that in the
future Hearst and Bryan will work
in perfect accord and amity.
Hearst and Bryan also met, it is
said, at luncheon given by General
Nelson A. Miles and made plain the
restoration of friendly relations be-
tween them.
Colonel Bryan and Mr. Hearst"
said MIR. Straus, will in the future
work together. They have agreed to
forget their differences and present
a united front to the country. l was
extremely glad to hear them talking
along the same lines and working to-
gether"
Mr.. Hearst before leaving here yes
Iterday, paid tribute to Champ Clark
and expressed his belief in the bright
ness of democratic prospects.
THE present promising conditions
in the democratic party he said,
have been brought about by the fact
that the democratic party under the
leadership of Champ Clark has had
the courage to be progressive and the
intelligence to be sound in it's demoa-
racy."
This sentiment, coming from Mr.
Hearst, started the suggestion that one
of the things upon which he and Col
onel Bryan are in accord is the pres
idential nomination of Mr., Clark. 1t
is no secret that Bryan looks with
favor upon Clarks aspirations in this
direction and Hearst's statement in
dicates that he does too.
