The girl says that a short time ago
Kaylor told her the truth She then

"Where is your marriage certifi-

The girl admitted she had none. The

SUPERSTITIONS OF
THE KITCHEN.

Cooking is such practical everyday
work that it seems strange for the
superstitions to invade the kitchen.
Yet probably there is not cook in
tile world, one writer claims who
would venture to stir any sort of mix
ture from custard to a gravy, in
any other direction than with the
sun" Many a cook will tell you that
custard will curdle if stirred in the
opposite direction, and that cake will
be heavy if the mixture be not al
ways worked round sunwise.
1t is a common saying that if the
crank of a churn be reversed
turning it in the proper direction for
a time-all the work will be undone
In some parts of Europe, when butter
does not come easily, a live coal is
placed under the churn $50 as to save
il from bewitchment."
Regarding bread-making, there are
several superstitions. In Yorkshire,
England nearly all the housewives
still bake their own bread. After
lneading the dough and leaving it to
rise, a deep cross is cut in it with a
knife. This is to "let the witch out"
and the custom is common to this day

Detective O'Connell leaped from the
running board of his car into Kaylor's
auto and arrested him.
Kaylor started to drive his auto to
the station. O'Connell sat in the front
seat beside him At the end of the first
block Kaylor asked permission to
light a cigarette.

the state, and not the mother. Geor-
gia, surely is ready and willing to
mae this bill a law if it can be
shown wherein this is a wise thing
to do; and this the mothers con-
gress believes is an easy thing to
do. Thousands of others in our great
state should be, and are, interested
and all mothers are urged to talk
and act before it is too late.

In Scotland they say that the yeast
must be made within an hour of sun
rise, or the bread will not be light.
Peasants in the west of Ireland, it
is said, will never leave an egg-shell
open at one end only. The spoon is
always thrust through the lower end
Otherwise some wicked goblin will
seize upon the shell and make boat
of it in which to sail the soul of the
careless person to destruction.
The superstitions with regard to Salt
are endless. That the splitting of salt
i7' unlucky is perhaps the commonest
.of all superstitious beliefs, and
prevails in the kitchen as we'll as at
the table. There are Scottish house
holds where salt is still held in such
reverence that the saltcellar used at
the family table is invariably kept
standing on the family Bible.-Atlanta

YOU CAN COMFORT
 A HELPLESS BABY
Suffering Infants of France CrJ
 for Your Assistance {

Among the kind and helpful things done for the Red Cross this week has been the advertising windows ar-
 ranged by Mr. Barto of the Electric company. Samples of everything made at the rooms are attractively displayed and the appeal for workers Is increasing the number of those willing to help. One thing not shown in the window but which will interest those who can crochet and knit is the wool work for babies This work fA planned to use the odds and ends or wool that everyone accumulates as the days go by. These short lengths Of yarn can be knitted or crocheted into warm little blankes for the French babies found 70 destitute in the re-occupied towns of northern France. The blankets should be at least thirty by thirty-six inches and may of course be larger. Baby caps are also desired and these can be made of the lighter colored wools. We have no rule for these but all we'll knit or crocheted articles will be gratefully sent in our boxes of in- fants' clothing. Through the kind ness of Mr. Niven the Boston Store made the Red Cross a very valuable. gift of colorcd wool for this work and this wool will be given out at the rooms to competent hands. During tho month of June the following arr ticles have been packed and sent: 27 do4en hospital shirts. if do3en pa- 3ama suits. 61 dozen Esmarch band ages, 18 dozen wash cloths, IT dozen comfort pillows, dozen wipeE. 6 >1-2 dozen pairs of leggins, z5 op- erating helmets. 14 dozen operating caps, 1 dozen hot water bottle covers. dozen wool sacks, I dozen eye band ages, 15 dozen hand towels. 30 oper- ating gowns. 4S bed slippers, ss knit ted mufflsrs, 16 knitted sweaters, 48 knitted helmets. IT pairs knitted wristlets, 30 bed packets. 54 sheets, 25 cotton pads 200 rolled bandages.
