However, some persons still like 10 pre-

thirty. II is so rich that it remains
moist for an almost indefinite time if it
IS Kept out of the air and vet there is
small danger of mold or miIdew. One
way to Keep il is to put it in a tin box

sugar and fill in the space on all sides
With sugar. Put the tisht-fitting cover

for the years to roll around until the

Dande1ion Greens.

Pick the tender green leaves before
the flower buds have formed, and in
the early morning before the sun has
toughened the fibers. Cut a small por-
tion of the root with the leaves to en-
hance the tonic bitterness of the plant.
Wash thoroughly In plenty of water, then
soak in lightly salted water for a couple
of hours. Drain, throw in saucepan Of
boiling water and cook twenty minutes.
Turn into colander, drain and dash cold
water from a faucet over them. This
chills and blanches them. imparting a
fresh flavor.
Drain again. press to remove all the
moisture, then chop. and let them rest
until almost ready to serve. Put a table
spoonful of butter in a frying pan, add
a tablespoonful of flour. the leaves and
salt and pepper to season. Moisten with
little broth if you have it; If not, more
butter may be necessary; toss lightly
until thoroughly hot, and serve with two
or three hard-boiled eggs sliced over
them, or the yolks of the eggs put
through a ricer and the whites cut in
rings This is a far more delicate way
of serving dandelion greens, than the
old-time way of cooking them with a
good-sized piece of salt pork for flavor
though for those doing heavy manual
work the latter is sometimes preferred.

Atlanta, July 1.-The mysterious
disappearance of Mrs. Eloise Dennis
and Beatrice Nelms, daughters Of the
late John w. Nelms, former sher-
if Of this county, is causing much
speculation. Mrs. Dennis, a divOrcee,
left q month agO for Houston, Texas,
to marry a man claiming to be Vic
tor Inncs, Il lawyer, who secured her
divorce in Reno. Her sister Beatrice
followed shortly to be present at the
wedding. Stopping over in New Or
leans, the, women sent a telegram to
their mother. Since then nothing has
been heard, until Tuesday the mother
received a letter signed, Eloise, stat
ing that she had made away" with
Beatrice and was en- route to San
Francisco to kill their brother Mar
shall Nelms. The Nelms family de-
clare Eloise sent "Innes' over $12,-
900 for investment in Mexican shares.
The women had a large amount of
money on the trip.
In an interview with Innes, at
Portland, Oregon, he states he has not
seen or heard from Eloise since she
secured her divorce. There is absolu-
tely no trace of the women though
the police of a dozen cities in the
west are searching for them. Their
mother is frantic and insists that her
daughters have met with foul play.
In his statement Inncs said that
while the suit for divorce was pending
Mrs. Dennis was extremely melan-
chOly. and intimatcd that she intend
ed to "do away" with her sister and
then commit suicide. once she said
she. w9uld kill herself So that Der
small son would receive $4,000 life
insurance. Innes declared tho idea
that he had anything to do with the
girls Is ridiculous. He is married and
has been living with his wife and
children since he left Nevada.
