Romantic Salute,

The young lieutenant in his trim
and elegant uniform saluted in the
stiff and yet somehow graceful mill
tary manner, pretty matron promen-
aiding the hotel piazzi at Old Point
Comfort.
"The military salute" he said els
peculiarly appropriate to you, madam.
Do you happen to know it's origin?"
NO
well, it's origin goes back to the
days of chivalry, to the tournaments
of the Middle Ages. In those tourna-
ments the knights before the combat
began rode past the queen of beauty
on her throne. AS they caracoled by
her they simultaneously brought the
hand to a horizontal position above
the brows, then dropped it to the side
again-a genuine military salute. And
this they did, in their chivalrous way,
to protect their eyes from the binding
rays of the queen of beauty's lowell
ness. Ehat, madam, is the origin of
the military salute, and that is why
the military salute is so appropriate
to one like YOU

HOW TO FRY DOUGHNUT
SIMPLE METHOD TO RELIEVE
TASK OF DRUDGERY.
Cutting and Extra Steps One Way to
Tighten the Housewives Labors-
Potatoes Should Be Cooked
in Their Skins.

Frying doughnuts is a task that is
apt to make great deal of extra
work. The woman brings the dough-
nuts from the pantry on the cake
board and holds it in her left hand
while she drops the doughnuts in the
kettle of fat. The cake board is
heavy, the strain is severe and the
woman is apt to make many trips be-
tween the pantry and the kitchen
range.
All this unnecessary work could be
done away with by the very simple
method of placing the cake board of
unfried doughnuts on the shelf above
the range which is generally at just
the right height to enable her to take
them from the board and drop them in
the kettle, thereby saving many trips
to and from the pantry and also the
strength that is used up in holding
a heavy board.
In washing potatoes most women
scrub and rub and whirl them about
with their hands, taking perhaps
about 10 to Is minutes to get them
thoroughly clean, when little 10
cent scrubbing brush would clean
them in or minutes, the scrubbing
brush to be used only for this purpose.
In this enlightened age it is to be
hoped that no housewife peels pota-
toes before cooking them, as i is we'll
known that all the valuable food salts
are just under the skin in peellng
them before cooking this valuable nu-
triton is wasted
In backing stoves canvas gloves
slipped over the hands will save ten
or more in scrubbing at the
sink to get the backing from the
hands.
The ashes from the kitchen range
should always be removed just before
washing the kitchen floor, otherwise
the housewife is very apt to wash her
floor and find she has to remove the
ashes and this will generally result
In two or three nasty smootches on
the floor as it is practically impossl-
BILE, even with the greatest of care, to
remove ashes without spilling at least
l few grains.

Il must be very fine dog to be so
much admired and petted," and with
that he began to bark at the solemn
old Persian cat, which ignored him
entirely.
"She is rather a we'll trained old
thing" thought the dog. "She knows
enough not to talk back to her bet.

Then he ran out in the street and
barked at a beautiful horse that was
passing the house, but neither the
driver nor the horse paid any atten.

AUTOMOBILE NOTES.
Hew to Keep Your Car In Good condi-
ton at All Times.


To wash Il car properly with soap
first dissolve in pail of water sufi-
Client soap to make II good suds. Then
in the washing operation use the suds,
sopping it on from the sponge instead
of rubbing the soap on wet sponge
or, what is worse. rubbing it on the
surface of the ear. Before applying
the suds the car should be rlnsed thor
oughly with water, using gentle
stream. This is important, as all par
ticles Of grit end dirt must be remov-
ed from the surface before applying
the sponge. Apply the suds literally
where the parts are dirty; then rinse
off with clear water and fresh
sponge. flowing the water below the
sponge to insure that any grit and dirt
that may be left ON the surface are
washed away before the sponge has a
surface. After the final spOnging the
surface should be dried with clean,
wet chamois.
In washing the chassis the same
method is in order, except that it may
be necessary to use stronger suds.
Where ears are in use over oily or
muddy roads frequent washing is nee
essary, and this washing should be
done as soon as possible after the car
leaves the road. as when this oil or
mud dries on the car it is very difficult
to remove and will damage the var
nish. it being impossible under certain
oil and mud conditions to remove all
the stains. In this connection it is
important that neither the bonnet nor
radiator is washed while it is hot. as to
do so will dull the luster, running it in
a very short time.
Another point which should be given
attention is that the same sponge
should not be used for washing both
the body and the chassis. Both SpongeS
should be of the best quality. care be-
ing taken at all times to keep them
clean and in proper condition.
