CoREER FOR COOKS
CURING FORK.

Porksuaust be thoroughly cooled to insure good keeping qualities when cured Prof F. F. Trowbridge of the agricultural chemistry department recommends the dry curing of pork in preference to brine curing. The Virginia cure,'' comm only known as sugar curing. g will make the pork more pa1afabIe and of better fIavor than brine cure. The Virginia cure is as follows: For every 1000 pounds of dressed meat, mix 40 pounds Of pepper, half pound of red pepper and three pounds of saltpeter
 This mixture should be rubbed over the meat, taking great care to cover an the cut surfaces and espe- cfa11y the shank end Pack the pieces of meat in a, box or barrel as closely as possible After two or three weeks tae meat will be cured enough to

IN A SCRAPE-
 MAKING LOVE TO TWO
Dear Miss Lihbey.

Dear Miss Libbey:
 A young man has been stunning him. the 3sweeth cart he really loves was away On the return of the sweet heart th e wedding day was set. There is a pretty howdy-do. When girl No. 2 hears that he sshas broken off with, her,'' The lover who is between the devil and the deep sea wants to konw what he is to do to extrfcate himself from girl NO. 2. The only way is to make an honest confession to No. 2 frankly stating the case just as you have to me. You certainly were at fault in trifnng with No. 2 Yet I think she will accept your explanation and the situation with dignity as any seif-respectfng girl would be apt to do-and without ado ignore you in fu- ture. It is bad policy to make love to two weethearts at. the same time

Pleasures are like poppies spread You seize the flower. its bloom Is shed; Or like the snowda:kes on the river
 A moment white, then melts forever.''
 There was a great hue and cry when rhinestone jewelrY first made it's ap- pearance. Women who owned dia-. monds worth a kings ransom declared it outrageous that imitation gems should be made, and so clearly that the young girl in the factory could shine just as respIendent as the mil- Eonairess wife ia her costly glitter.
 While the people of wealth depIored the coming of the rhinestone, the poor clerk with a frivolous wife looked upon them as a godsend for his pock- etbook. There are some women with such a passionate love for g1ittering. stones that they would willingly go without the necessarfes of life to spur- chase second-rate diamonds on the in stallment plan. If the wife of 9 poor man has a. mania for glittering gems sparkling in her ears and blazing on her hands, her husbands hope of hap piness is built on the quicksands. She will detest the common dFudgery of housework. It detracts from the beau ty of white hands, and the polished nails would have to go. Then, again. she eraves fine clothes to go with her pretty gems. More often than not, it
 makes a woman discontented with her lot if she is possessed of real gems and has no prospect of ever entering the social swim where she could dis play them with propriety.
 There is onlyf one stand for aaman to take with his sweetheart at the time of their betrothal and that is that his means will not enable him tospur- chase a costly engagement ring for her. And furthermore, that he con- sfders it would be out of place in the station of life they would have to or- cupy. He knows full well that if she loves him the sparkle of diamonds can not lure her from thinking wisely and well on the subject that any ring he may select will be pleasing to her. 4 man may we'll trust such woman Longing for diamonds by his wife has been the ruinatton of many an easy going husband. Many a man takes cn
 more of a load than he can carrry When the payday rolls around and he has not the wherewith-a debtors prison is his portion.
 Some women have a craving for fine clothes, others to climb the social lad der a,nd be surrounded by butterfly friends Of the moment Others are 1ured by the wine cup. None of these is more fatal to woman than the lure of sparkling diamonds. It is the first offering of men who would tempt young girls from the path of rectitude. Young women should beware of men who offer them costly gems with no thought or word of marriage.

Hopes Women viii
Adopt This Habit
As Well As Men
Glass OF hot water each morn
Ing helps us look and feel
Clean, sweet, fresh.

Happy, bright, Advantageous and
vivacious-a good clear skin; a nat
ural, rosy complexion and freedom
from illness are assured only by
clean, healthy blood. If only every
,>oman and likewise every man could
realize the wonders of the morning
inside bath, what a gratifying change
would take place.
Instead of the thousands of sickly,
anaemic-looking men, women and
girls with pasty or muddy complex
ions; instead of the multitudes of
nerve wrecks, run-downs," brain
Tags" and pessimists we should see a
virile,, optimistic throng of rosy
checked people everywhere.
An inside bath is had by drinking,
each morning before breakfast, a
glass of real hot water, with a tea
spoonful of limestone phosphate in it
to wash from the stomach, liver, kid
neys and ten yards of bowels the pre-
vfous days indigestible waste, sour
lamentations and poisons, thus
cleansing, sweetening and freshening
the entire ailmentary canal before
putting more food into the stomach.
Those subject to sick headache, bill
iousness, nasty breath, rheumatism,
colds; and particularly those who have
a pallid, sallow complexion, and who
are constipated very often, are urged
to obtain quarter pound of limestone
phosphate at the drug store which will
cost but trifle, but it sufficient to
demonstrate the quick and remarkable
change in both health and appearance
awaiting those who practice internal
sanitation. We must remember that
inside cleanliness is more important
than outside, because the skin does not
absorb impurities to contaminate the
blood, while the pores in the thirty feet
of bowels do.

NO DEVELOPMENTS
IN MURDER CASE

BRUNSWICK, Ca, Nov. S.-Just a
week ago one of the most brutal MUIR
ders in the criminal history Of Bruns-
wick was committed when Richard
Oberlauter, an aged jeweler and
Matchmaker, was murdered and rob-
led, but still the police have failed to
secure clue which will probably lead
to the capture of the guilty parties.
No murder in recent years has SO
stirred the people of Brunswick, and
ell have expressed the wish that the
nSurderers be captured and punished.
Eight arrests have been made during
the week, four white men and four ne
groes, but the officers have been una
BILE to secure any evidence on which
&c hold them and they have been re-
leased.
The murder of the aged jeweler was
most daring one. Thieves entered
his store, right in busy section of
the city, murdered him with an axe,
end then ransacked his store and made
their getaway without being discov-
cred. Two hours later the crime was
uncovered. To those who have looked
into the case, it is the belief that the
murder was committed by white men,
experienced in such work. Officers
are still busy on the case and hope is |
still held out that the guilty persons
will be apprehended.

ANTHONY AND CLEOPATRA.

am dying, Egypt, dying.
Ebbs the crimson life-tide fast,
And the dark plutonian shadows
Gather on the evening blast;
Let thine arms, o queen, support me,
Hush thy sobs and bow thine ear,
Listen to the great heart secrets
Thou, and thou alone, must hear.
Tho my SCARED and veteran legions
) Bear their eagles high no more,
And my wreck'd and scattered galleys
Strew dark Actium's fatal shore;
Tho no glittering guards surround me,
Prompt to do their masters will,
I must perish like Roman
Die the great Triumvir still.
Let not Caesars seryile minions
Mock the lion thus laid low;
Twas no foeman's arm that felled him,
Twas his own that struck the blow.
His who, pillowed on thy bosom,
Turned aside from glory's ray
His who, drunk with thy caresses,
Madly threw world away.
Should the base pledian rabble
Dare assail my name at Rome,
Where my noble spouse, Octavia,
Weeps within her widowed home
Seek her; say the gods bear witness
Affairs, augurs, circling wings
That her blood with mine commingled
Yet shall mount the throne of kings.
AS for thee, star-eyed Egyptian
Glorious sorceress of the Nile!
Light the path to Stygian darkness,
With the splendor of thy smile;
Give the Caesar crowns and arches,
Let his bow the laurels Irvine;
T can scorn the senate's triumph,
Triumphing in love like thine!
l am dying, Egypt. dying!
Hark! the insulting foeman's cry;
They are coming-quick, my falchion!
Let me front them ere I die!
All! no more amid the battle
