rows of hollyhocks and sunfiowers,

The southern colonel has long since
ceased to embody the type that was
characteristic Of the life Of ease and
pomp Of the old south. Farm labor
and an overseer and corps Of do
mestic servants cost dearly. and the
war which made the typical planta-
ton owner and state politician the
colonel at the same time depleted his
means. At the close of the war It
was necessary for him to be up and
doing, 30 that now he Is no longer
the type, but has become the captain
Of industry Of the south.
The delectable dishes, which so
helped to spread the fame OF the south
abroad in the land OF the old days,
are no more. One finds them occa-
sionally, but In most homes the magic
recipe has been lost. A French menu

late lamented old.time southern cook

type Of the old black nanny, except
to make stronger in her the lovable
characteristics which were the posses.

not the most appealing to you and
me, this is the most striking and last

gray haired black nanny, that no
condition of society or set OF social
circumstances has ever brought forth
similar type, and In all probability
never will.
