glad of sugarless recipes, partly
because we are all "skeery" OF

Here are recipes so delicious that
they have much to recommend them
in addition to their susar-saving
value:
Frozen SRaisin Pudding.

OF milk. the finely chopped peel Of
one lemon, half cupful of honey
and a piece Of cinnamon about one
inch long, finely crushed. Place the
pan on the fire and bring the mix

minutes. Put into a bowl two raw
yolks OF eggs and stir we'll to-
gether; then mix the favored milk
with them gradually and return the
mixture TO the stewpan; stir on the
fire until IL is thick like cream; then
take up and rub II all through.a
fine sieve. Put this custard aside
until cold, then pour 1t into the
freezer and freeze to the thickness
of a batter. Mix with a cupful of
stiffly whipped cream and half q
cupful Of seeded raisins; flavor with
a teaspoonful of vanilla essence.
Refreeze the mixture until dry.

II the baking soda is omitted the

SENATOR BLACKS TRIBUTE.
Praises the Late Senator B. E. Mich
olson, of Edgefield.

The following is the tribute paid
by Senator Black, Of Bamberg, to
the late Senator B. E. Nicholson, OF
Edgefeld, who died of an attack OF
influenza few days ago:
"Mr. President would be un-
true to myself and untrue to my own
feelings, if 1 did not say something
on this sad occasion. For it was
my good fortune, We, my great pleas
ure to know Senator Nicholson for
a good long time. I knew him in his
home town, where he was loved by
all the people, but l knew him more
intimately in this senate. l have
served with him in committees and
in this chamber and can testify to
his faithfulness and sincerity on all
occasions.
"In the death of Senator Nichol-
son Edgefeld county has lost one Of
her most beloved sons, this senate
one of her ablest members, and the
State of South Carolina one Of her
best citizens.
"As we stand here today with sad
hearts and bowed heads, we miss
him, we miss him now, and will miss
him for many days to come. We
miss his strong argument in debate.
We miss his genial smile as he met
his brother senators. We miss his
merry laugh as he went in and out
among the members of this body.
During the first week of this ses-
sion he was in his seat, but soon he
was subject to sickness and went to
his home in Edgefeld, there to re-
main only short time before he was
transported to that undiscovered
country from whose bourne no trav-
eler returns" He was called early
in life, but we can look back on that
life as being we'll spent for the up,
building of mankind and for the
glory of God.
"Mr. President, may it be said of
us all when we are called hence, as
we can truthfu1ly say of him today,
the world was made better by his
having lived in it."
