Valuable SUGGESTIONS

Mrs. /anet Mckenzie Hill
Helpful Cake Makiud Hints

Helpful Cake Making Hints
Always sift -four and K c Baking
Powder at least three times. The
more sitting, the lighter the cake.
Remember that! TO cream but
ter and sugar quickly, warm the
sugar slightly. Beat yolks of eggs
with rotary beater. Whip whites
Of eggs with flat spoon whip.
Water makes lighter cakes; milk
makes richer cakes.
To mix a cake, first cream but
ter and sugar thoroughly, then add
yolks, if used. Then alternately
add moisture and flour that has
been sifted with baking powder
and stir until smooth and glossy,
adding egg whites after thoroughly
mixing.
Always use K c Baking Ponder.
Biscuit Helps
Alwayssift flour and &C Baking
Powder at least three times.
Have shortening cold and firm.
Mix dough as soft as it can be
handled. The softer dough goes
into the oven, the lighter the
biscuit when it comes out. 1t is
easier for K c Baking Powder to
do its work in soft than in stiff
dough. Mix biscuits very little.
DO not knead. Stir TIP with spoon
or knife and press in shape to roll
on Toured board.
With K c Baking Powder re-
suits are sure and certain. Ask

The injuries, of some are so serious that additional deaths are expected Nearly all are too dazed to understand fully what has happened The survivors do not agree as to wnether the submarine fired one or two torpedoes. A few say they saw the per1seope, though many tell of 00eiiis tHe wake or roam as a tOrpe- do came toward the vessel. The only points in which all concur is that the torpedo struck the vessel a vital blow amidshlps, causing her to list to the starhoard. In this careening fashion she plowed forward some distance, smashing the life boat davits as she aid so, and making the launching of ooats well nigh impossible until she stopped.

Doq Hero Saves Little Girl.

Little Elsie Perry, daughter of c. L. Perry of Wilson, N. C., was saved from the fangs of a rabid dog by the bravery of a nondescript dog, the property of MT. Perry, and the con stant playmate of little Elsie.
 While playing in front of her home the little girl was attacked by a large dog, which came running down the street. Her playmate, much smaller than the attacking dog, threw himself on it, and battled grimly, until the little girl escaped into the house. The canine hero was terribly bitten in the encounter, and when it was learned that the strange dog had rabies the hero had to be shot, as physicians said it was certain he would go mad. He was buried with the highest hon. ors.

Justified in Sjnkino Shin

Berlin.-The destruction of the Lu sltanla has made deep impression Aere While the loss of lives of ne,1- trals IS regretted, the sinking of the steamer is justified, because it is al- leeed the Lusitania was a fully armed British auxiliary cruiser. It also is assumed here, according to a semi-of- hclal statement, that the vessels hold was full of munitions Of war for use against Germany.

Was Auxiliary Cruiser

Cleveland.-Dr. Bernhard Dornburp
 former colonial secretary of Germany, who arrived here, helds the sinking of the Lusitania to be Justifable because the Lusitania carried contraband of war and also because the boat was classified as an auxiliary cruiser at the disposal of the British admiralty.
