Be a Gentleman, Warns
Douqhboys' Newspaper

Coblenz, Oct. 25.-The Amaroe
News, the daily published for the
soldiers of the American army OF
occupation, publishes this gentle ed
itorial reminder:
Some of the American soldiers
continue to claim that it is difficult
to distinguish between an American
lady and a German lady. Candidly,
we don't see why this should cause
any worry. If you act as gentle
man. it doesn't make any difference
if the lady is American, French, Bel
gian or German. Just be sure you
are acting a gentleman and the ma
tionality of the lady needn't bother
you. Isn't it SOP"

blooming on the window sill above
the sink.
If the sink should happen to clog,
a very useful investment is the pur-
chase of a plumbers plunger. This
costs only about so cents at hard
ware store and during year is sure
to save several times that amount
in plumbing bills, besides much time
and inconvenience.
Dish Washing Aid.
Other useful sink equipment In
cludes a dish-washing outfit of pan
and wire dish drainer, a dish mop,
a chain dish cloth, a pot scraper, a
soap shaker for the economical us
ing up of soap scraps, q glass jar of

cheapest and best sink cleaners, and
a sprinkler top can of disinfectant.

general sanitation's sake.
Beneath the sink single hook for
the dishpan is all that should really
go there if it is going to be kept SO
that it will be easy to keep it clean.

dark merely from rot. When clean
ing vegetables or securing utensils
of any kind an ordinary newspaper
may be plated on the drainboard. 1t
can then be lifted up with all the
dirt when the task is done and the
sink is perfectly clean beneath.
Between the faucets is one of the
most convenient places for a soap
dish, which should be large enough
to contain several cakes of soaps
needed for various purposes. All
Of the useful little sink brushes
should be hung close by.
Plenty Of Light.
Very fortunate is the woman who
has window or two above her sink
for light and fresh air, But If she
likes to see her kitchen not only
tidy but dainty she will avoid clut-
tering up these window stills with
sink equipment, for there is plenty
Of room either on the drainboard to

First Essential for
Clearly Housewife
Is Sink Shaine,

Keeping the kitchen sink white
and shining means good health to
the household. Such good house
keeping does not mean a great deal
of work or expense, after the first
expenditure, if the right equipment
is chosen, and just a little daily
care is taken.
The fist thing to buy is a sink
strainer. This should be hung in
the corner of the sink nearest the
outlet, and every drop of liquid that
is poured down the sink is poured
through the strainer. Thus no
chance of clogging the outlet is run,
and the sink itself is kept free from
debris of any kind. Prevention is
the first watchword in keeping the
sink SO spotless that one needn't be

into the kitchen at any hour Of the
day.
Coffee Grounds.
The remains of tea, coffee or any
vegetables that have the water
poured off after cooking should all
be drained by being held above the
sink strainer, even though poured
through special vegetable strainer.
No kettle. such as tea kettle to
be filled with water or a frying pan
that needs an extra scrubbing,
should be set in the sink. 1t is far
easier to clean an ordinary tin dish
pan than the white porcelain that
lines a sink. Besides, it is easier
and less expensive to replace a worn
dishpan than battered and stained
sink. If there Is an occasion when
it seems most necessary for conven-
fence to set some kettle in the sink,
stubborn stains. so tiresome to
clean, can be avoided by placing the
kettle on two narrow strips of lin
oleum on the bottom of the sink. 1t
is even wise to let the dishpan rest
on such strips, too.
On the drainboard a rubber mat
is very desirable to save breakage

Frozen Peaches.

This is a very economical dessert,
and yet it is very good. Peel one
quart of ripe peaches, slice and run
through a colander. Boil one cup
full OF granuiated sugar with one
pint OF water and four cracked
peach pits for seven minutes and

PROM DIXIE TO BROADWAY
Noted Colored Organization = The
Darktown Follies-Coming to the
Rhode Next Sunday.

From Dixie to Broadway, more fami.
harly called The Darktown Follies,
win show at the Rhode on next Sun
day, January 9Th, matinee and night.
This musical comedy in two acts and
eight scenes, viii attract the theatre
going public of this city, who like
catchy jazz music and singing and
close view of genuine colored society.
There is thoroughly contagious fas-
cination about the melodies with ex-
ceptional harmony singing that only a
aggregation of colored performers can
deliver, and the dancing which is done
is in no half measure. Their eccentric
mannerisms in dancing surpasses every
thing in this line ever introduced in
this city. The principal funmakers
are Eddie Greene and Quintard Miller
and a supporting aggregation of no
mean ability, consisting of James
Howell, Charles Hightowere, Fanny
Wise and Ella Gardner and as an add
ed feature, the incompatible Four
jazz Girls, Billie Young, Sweetie May,
Alto Oats, Eloise johnson and a chorus
of brown skinned beauties, who for
speed and class are second to none. adv

NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH,

Which is the title of a farcical play
that will be seen at the Rhode on
Thursday, Jan. 8, night only To have
nothing but the truth in real life in
this day Of exaggeration and misstate-
ment would be little out of the ordin-
airy. In this farce we find something
out of the ordinary, for it is clean,
bright, witty and thoroughly entertain
ing and engenders more and legitimate
laughter than the great mass Of plays
of its kind that cater solely to human
disabilities. It is different in that it
creates mirth In a natural easy way
without straining for an effect or re-
sorting to horse play. It's humor is in
herent to its action as the story is I'M
folded Of the ten thousand dollar wager
of the buoyant spirited central char
acter who takes upon himself, the bur-
den of truthful utterance. 1t is a play
of strong, human character drawing
and G. NJ. Anderson and Il. Lawrence
Weber have, after much effort, secured
a corps of farceurs thoroughly fitted
to interpret James Montgomery IS clever
work. In word-it is TO laugh. Seats
now on sale. Prices: SOC, 75c, $1.00
and $3.50 and the tax. County orders
by phone or mail will receive special
