FOR SHILOH MONUMENT.
Another commttiHhb-havrng


Another committee is considering
raising funds to provide a home for
needy Confederate women. The
Shiloh monument committee has had
several meetings without selecting
any of the artists models presented
and will not be ready for report until
at least one more meeting takes place.
All of the committee work is done
I'm secret and will not be made public
until reported to the convention.
Only two candidates are in the
field for election as president general.
They are Mrs. Nathan ID. Eller of
Virginia and Mrs. Daisy McLaurin
Stevens, daughter of the late Senator
McLaurin of Mississippi.
While interest in the election is
more or less keen has been little
evidence SO far of a spirited contest.

cially tonight by officers OF the New
Orleans shapter, u. ID. C.. Between
the three business sessions each day

vided.

Children's hats set back on the

Any simple style that is becoming
will be worn. Later we will have

all children from to years old this

MANY USES FOR SALT

For cooking purposes salt is indis-
pensable, and 1t is well to remember
that salt brings out other flavors.
Even sweet puddings are improved
when a pinch of it is added A pinch
of salt added to the whites of eggs
will cause them to whip in half the
time usually required
It's antiseptic and preserving quail
ties are well known, and by destroy
ing the organisms that promote the
decomposition it is invaluable for
keeping fish, meat and many other
things.
The quantity of salt used for cur
ing fish is almost incredible.
When mixed with common ice II
lowers the temperature to 81 degrees
below freezing point, and advantage
is taken of this property in making
ices; but apart from these qualities
there are many other ways in when
1t can be used.

ammonia, one-half ounce salts tartar
and two ounces puNerized borax.
Keep this mixture in a jug, well
corked, says Womans World for
May
When you are ready to begin wash

solution to a boiler of water. Cut

Put the clothes in the suds and boil

In the laundry handful of salt
put in the rinsing water will prevent
the colors from running in prints
and wooden articles; pinch in the
starch will prevent from sticking to

smoothed by rubbing it in fine, dry
salt. If new prints are soaked in
strong salt water before washing they
will keep the color better,

CARE OF ALUMINIUM WARE

There are two kinds of aluminium
ware, the spun" and the cast" The
spun is much lighter. and should be
chosen for lightweight utensils and
not for frying pans 'or serviceable
kettles. Never use any alkali in water
in which aluminium is washed. 1t will
cause the outer surface to become
dark. Polish nice ware weekly with
a good whiting or silver cream, and
the ware retains its lustre longer.

From his stern and with'ring power;
/ would only tell the truth.

Save thee from the tempter's snare.
Lady, shun that dark eyed stranger,
! have warned thee, now beware.
Mrs. Ellen H. enclosed an answer to
the poem Its author is not given;
Lady, do not heed her warning,
Trust me, thou wilt find me true;
Constant as the light of morning
| will ever be to you.
Lady. every joy would perish,
Flowers all would wither fast,
If no heart could love and cherish
In this world of storm and blast.
Down by the softly flowing river.
Where the dark green willows weep,
Where the leafy branches culver,
There a gentle maiden sleeps.
In the morn a lovely stranger
Comes and fingers many hours;
Lady, he's no heartless ranger
For he strews her grave with flowers.
Lady, heed thou not her warming:
Lay thy sofc-white hand In mine,
For I seek no fairer laurel
Than the constant love of thine.
When the silver moonlight brightens
Thou shalt slumber on my breast:
Tender words thy soul shall tighten,
Lull thy spirit into rest.
