To Cook Leo of Lamb.

To properly cook a leg of lamb,
considering both flavor and economy,
have it boned and rolled by your
butcher. Be sure he sends you the
bone and meat the day before it is
to be eaten. AS soon as it comes put
bones in t4ttle with cold water, an
onion, and season with salt and pep
per- Let simmer for three-quarters of
an hour. When this comes to a boil
put in the meat and keep at a con-
slant boil for two hours Take out
meat and boil down liquor, then strain
and cool. The next day take off fat,
put in one-half cup barley and boil till
tender. This will make delicious
soup. The leg should now be COW
cred with the fatty membrane that
has been taken off the leg. This will
give it flavor and serve to haste the
meat. Bake in oven about one hour

HOME NEEDS SUNLIGHT
DETAIL TOO OFTEN NEGLECTED
~ THE MEN OF THE HOUSE.
Living Rooms In Which the Women
Spend Almost the Whole Of Their
Time Should Be Made as
Pretty as Possible.

The wife is the mainstay OF the
entire family, but too often she
is painfully neglected,and her natural
yearning for comfort and beauty In
her home life is never satisfied. All
our troubles are unloaded upon moth
er and her hands are always strong
enough to sustain us and her heart
big enough to take in all our sorrows.
The very least we can do is to let
the sunlight Of the sky into her home,
and the light of our love into her
heart
Too many Of our homes in the
country lack the sunlight-not the
sunlight from the sky, perhaps, but
the sunlight Of comfort and beauty.
We put too much money into the
barns, live stock and shiny red ma
chinery and not enough in the home,
where mother and the girls must live
and provide for the wants of the en-
tire family.
The men and boys are out-of-doors
all the time in the summer, except
when eating and sleeping, and during
the evenings in winter, and may not
feet the absence Of pictures and car
pets and hangings and the little deco
rations that go to make a home rest
full and satisfying as much as do the
women-folks,
Appreciation of these things is al
most certainly a matter Of education
even in men and boys.

whose floors are uncovered and where

lack of comfort and beauty in home
is a distinct loss in the softening and
purifying influence upon character

Fruit RoIv-PoIv-

Make a biscuit dough, roll 1t out
into a sheet about half an inch thick
and spread it with fresh or canned
fruit, or evaporated fruit which has
been soaked into plumpness and fla
vor. Use your discretion about the
amount of sugar you sprinkle over the
fruit-the ripe, tart varieties, such as
oranges or apples, will require more
than that which is canned. Dredge
with flour and roll the dough up with
the fruit inside. When you have made
it into a loose roll pinch the edges
together, wrap in a piece Of cheese
cloth, and lay in a steamer. Cook one
hour and serve with hard or soft
sauce.

TEA TABLE D j
IDEAS FROM SCOTLAND THAT
MIGHT BE APPROPRIATED.
Scenes and Edinburgh shortbread Are
Recommended by Traveler-oat
Cakes and, Pltcalthly Ban
nocks Also Are Good.


Something new in the way Of tea
and things" was discovered the other
day at a Scotch tearoom, where
scenes and genuine Edinburgh short
bread we're being served, writes cor
respondent. There we're cat cakes,
too, and Pitcaithly bannocks as well.
The scone has all the virtue of
the toasted English muffin as a tea
accessory" explained the Scotch lass
who makes these breads. And. In
addition, It isn't so likely to be soggy.
The muffin has yeast in it, but the
scone is made without, as you will
see from my recipe, which brought
from Dunferline: One coffee cup OF
flour, one-quarter teaspoon Of salt,
one-quarter teaspoonful of cream of
tartar, one-half teaspoon of soda
(smalD, one teaspoon of sugar.
Mix all the dry ingredients togeth-
er and then stir in enough butter
milk (about three-quarters of a coffee
cup) to make a soft dough. Turn this
out on well-foured board and roll
Dkully W dUOul OAlC-AudiNtA lnCh IL
thickness. Cut this in eight, pie fash
ion, and put on a hot griddle. Do not
grease the griddle. Bake until brown
on one side, then turn over and bake
on the other. Turn only once.
"The Scotch shortcake is really a
cake It looks like pie crust, but is
not so rich and is sweeter. l cut the
dough with a knife into triangles, be-
cause / think it rises better than
when it is shaped with a cutter. In
the large pastry shop in Edinburgh
they roll the dough much thinner and
cut into small round shapes. They
are called there 'petticoat tails. You
see, when Mary Stuart came back
from France she brought number
of the French people with her, and
they called these little cakes 'pettis
gateaux.' The Scotch people thought
they said 'petticoat tails and so they
have been known ever since"
Another variety of shortbread is the
Pitcaithly hammock. 1 suppose the
lady of Pitcaithly castle. in Perth,
originated them, as all the great ladies'
in early times made their own cakes.
This is simply the shortbread with
nuts and any other good thing you
may happen to have on hand stirred
through 1t.
To make the ordinary shortbread
take seven ounces of flour, one ounce
of rice flour, five ounces of butter and
two ounces of castor sugar.
Work all this together with the
hands until it is soft and the butter
is well worked in. Make it into a
round cake about one-half inch thick;
pinch the edges together and prick
it all over with fork. This keeps
1t from rising. Put 1t on creased
paper on a fiat tin and bake in slow
oven until it is a pale brown. One
hour or more is not too long to bake

Woven MARKINGS.

Marking tapes with the full name
woven into the fabric in bright red
are decidedly practical; there is no
danger of the color being faded in the
laundering. These tapes, of course,
have to be made to order, but the
shops keep a very complete line of
similar tapes marked only with the
given name, ready for the purchaser.
1t is said that in stock there are at
least 1000 names now to be had.
When the laundry work is done at
home, the given name is quite sufli
cient.

italian Pot Roast. Tomato Sauce.

Begin by preparing the pot roast
IN the usual way. rubbing it well with
sifted -four and seasoning it with pep
per and salt. Then brown it on all
sides in heated suet and add an onion
and a carrot. When these prelim-
inaries are over cover it with canned
tomatoes instead of water. If the to-
matoes are without much superfiuous
Juice add some water. but they are
usually juicy enough. About half an
hour before taking up add the maca-
roni The meat should simmer and
not boil.

Local Organization

Ralph w Tyler. recently elected ma
tional organizer of the National Negro
Business league. the foremost organiza-
ton among negroes in the country. de-
iivered an. address before the members
of the Birmingham Negro Business
league in the parlors of the Standard
Social club. iii Third avenue, last night.
About so of the negro business and pro-
fessional men heard the address, which
was the second one the new organizer
had delivered since his election by the
executive committee Of the league.
The meeting was presided over by W
b. Driver. president of the Birmingham
Negro Business league. who took occa-
sion to call the attention of the speaker
to the remarkable progress made by the
nsrose in the Birmingham district
Tyler was introduced by +. A. Brown
a local attorney.
In his address the national organizer
placed emphasis upon the matter of CO.
operation among negro business men and
declared that where there We're three OF
four persons in the same kind of busi-
ness. some combination by them should
be perfected whereby they could give
their customers better service, cheaper
prices. and at the same time save II
freight. rent and other expenses. III
is now time the negro was beginning
to sec that there is strength in union.
ne declared. 1T has taken us some
time to develop strong and successful
business men These men who have
achieved success as individuals should
see to it that the matter of co-opera-
tion is tried out sufficiently TO give the
negro greater opportunities.
He paid high compliment to the me-
gro business men of Birmingham de-
claring that in his travels he had seen
no better showing anywhere. Addresses

At East Lake

Notwithstanding the detriment offered
to large attendance both by the cool
weather and the counter attraction offered
by the Buffalo Bill show, an unexpec-
tedly large attendance made the first
night of the skaters masked carnival,
under the management of Prof. w. c.
Mcconnell at East Lake park, a de-
cided success last night. numerous in
teresting and original costumes being
on the floor.
Nappi's popular band furnished the
music for the occasion and the list OF
spectators was larger than usual, too
owing to the decided interest taken ir
the affair by the young people Of every
section of the city.
Liberal prizes have been offered for
the most original costume during the
carnival, which lasts tonight and Fri.
day night, and committee consisting
of j. w. Hughes, Jr, w. B. Britain

to be named will award the prizes FRI.

GOVERNOR O'NEAL
MAY SAVE NEGROES
Application Made for Com
mutation of Death Sen
tence of Murderers

Montgomery, June 11.-(Special) AN
application has ben made to Governor
O'Neal for the Communication of the death
sentences imposed upon Sharp Aaron and
Tom Simon, two Hale county negroes,
for wife murder The date for the exc
cution of the negroes is set for next
Saturday at Greensboro.
Several weeks ago Governor ONeal
granted respites to the negroes pending
the finding of additional evidence to be
placed before the state board of par
dons. The two negroes were convicted in
the circuit court of Hale county, and
their cases were affirmed by the SUI
preme court.
Governor O'Neal has taken the matter
of their commutation under advisement,
and will announce his decision later.

Increased interest was manifested in
The second days session of the Alabama
Dental association held in the Hotel Hill
taken up with clinics. The latest scien-
tifc methods of extracting teeth was
shown, as well as the most approved
methods of plate work and other dental
operations.
Many electrical and other appliances
were shown, and their merits explained
by experts. The committee on clinics re-
ported quite a number of interesting sub
jects to be explained and demonstrated
which We're presented to the association at
the morning session.
Yesterday afternoon the delegates were
shown over the industrial district and
the several large plants of the Tennessee
Coal, Iron and Railroad company were
visited. A special train was provided by
the Tennessee company and the party
visited the steel mills at Ensley, the wire
mill at Fairfield, the coke oven and other
plants adjoining. They also We're taken
to the new mines at Edgewater and to
the great impounding reservoir at Cam
Branch.
AT the night session the reports of spe-
cial committees were received including
the report of the committee on scientific
research" which brought about a spirited
discussion. Other papers We're read and
discussed, among which was the report
of the board of censors. Today is the last
day of the convention which will be given
over to papers not classified and to wind
ing up the business of the convention.
The evening session was devoted to
the regular business of the conven-
tion and was devoid of any special
features. DIR. Hassell moved the recon-
sideration of the resolution which had
been adopted making the Alabama as

caught fire and received burns from which
he died at o'clock last night. The
fatality happened about $50 O'Clock yes
terday morning in front of young What
ley's home, 5729 Second avenue, south.
From accounts of the accident 1t seems
that relatives of the lad arrived in town
yesterday morning to see the circus and
gave Madison some money to spend. He
spent it for some fireworks. The child
started playing with his fusees and his
clothing caught fire. Mrs. Whatley heard
the cries of her son and rushed out to
stamp out the flames. She succeeded but
not before little Madison had received
burns from which he died few hours
la ter.
The boy is survived by his parents. Fu-
neral arrangements will be announced

liver Address Tonight

Never before in the history of the state

leagues of the North Alabama conference
assembled than at the Avondale Meth
odist church last night Over 500 young
men and women, all representatives of
the various leagues throughout the state,
We're present.
Hugh Locke spoke briefly on the ques-
tion of home mission. you may step into
your back yard he said ''and perhaps
you may find a plank that has been lying
there for some time. Gently lift that
plank and YOU will see under it a host Of
small, Shiny. repugnant creatures the
very lowest of the animal kingdom living
in the very dirtiest of filth.
BY the edge of the plank You will see
the sweet, green growing grass Is it not
strange that these Shiny creatures can
exist so close to the grass. and maybe
flowers? Is it not strange indeed? Is IL
not strange that the grass and Sowers
will grow and thrive so close TO the most
replienant of crawling. creatures?
''Still you recommend and indorse for
eisn missions

the plank. You may go three or four
hlccSs from here and you will find hui
mans. the very highest type of the ami
nal creation living in such conditions

GO

tance was done. An address of welcome
