AYASH STOCK is
SOLDTO BROTHER
Assets of Store Bring
S6,525 at Receivers
Sale

T. o. Marshall, as Gece yer, under
an order granted by the Superior
Court of Sumter county, sold yes
terday the entire, estate of the late
VIM. A. Ayash. A portion Of the
extra-perishable property of the es~
tate had already been sold. and at
the sale yesterday all the remaining
assets of the estate were turned into
cash. The stock of goods contained
in the store at Forsyth and Lee
streets, representing the bulk of the
estate, was sold to Charles Ayash, a
brother of the deceased, for $6,525,
and practically all of the dead mans
clothing and personal belonging were
bought by members Of his family.
An old-style Cadillac automobile
was sold to John Jabeles for S275,
being one Of the lowest values reallz-
ed at the sale.
Previous to the bulk sale of the
stock of goods and fixtures to
Charles Ayash, these were offered
in parcels and bid in by numerous
purchasers, at a total price consider
bly, lower than that realized when
the stock and fixtures were Of
fered as a whole
The purchaser, Charles A. Ayash,
announced that he would sell the en-
tire stock at retail at sacrifice
prices. 1t is considered probable he'll
engage in business in Americas
at the same stand until the expiration
Of the lease, which has only a short
time to run. He was formerly asso-
ciated with his brother in business
here, and has many friends here.
The sale of the property was made
subject to confirmation by the court,
and no deliveries will be made until
after such confirmation is had. The
excellent price obtained for various
parcels offered indicates, however
that this will he merely routine

In attempting to rid the country of

far the progress made has been very
slow, even taking into account the

could be expected when you consider
how very little is positively known

Acts On The Liver.
Regulates Kidneys,
Purifies the Blood

The liver is the largest and most
important organ in the body, and
when the liver refuses to act, it causes
constipation, biliousness, headaches,
indigestion, gas, sour stomach, bad
breath, dysentery, diarrhoea, pains in
back and under shoulder blades and
under ribs on right side. These symp-
toms lead to colds, influenza or other
serious troubles unless corrected i'm
mediately.
An inactive liver places an extra
burden on the kidneys, which over
taxes them and causes the blood to
absorb and carry into the system the
impurities that the liver and kidneys
have failed to eliminate.
When you treat the liver alone, you
treat only third of your trouble, and
that is why you have to take purga-
tives every few nights. Calomel or
other ordinary laxatives do not go far
enough. If you would treat your kid
neys and blood while treating the liver
you would put your entire system in
order and frequent purgatives would
then be unnecessary.
DR.. W. L. Hitchcock many years
ago recognized these important facts,
and after much study and research,
compounded what is now known as
DR.. Hitchcock's Liver, Kidney and
Blood Powders, three medicines COM
bined in one. This was the Doctor S
favorite prescription for many years,
being used by his patients with
marked success. 1t is harmless veg
etable remedy, that win not make you
sick, and you may eat anything you
like while taking it.

One Period CodPack Canning Is the Thing When Sugar Is
Scarce and Time and Energy Are Precious Says Uncle Sam
WASHINGTON, July Canning

WASHINGTON, July Gaming
time = 1c-e 2c2in.
Io.,.o axe Going, pears are com
ing. ..ld hca straight through the
sunni, there VII be vegetables Of
all l--,rirJors.
True, sugar is scarce. But the
methgl of canning endorsed by the
United States Department OF Agrl-
culture points a way around this diff
ficultv. BY the One-Period-Cold-Pack
canning method fruits may be canned
without sugar. Hot water instead OF
syrup is poured over the fruit IN the
can before sealing. Of course II a
housewife has plenty of sugar and
wants to use it, syrup is quite in or
der-but it is NOT NECESSARY.
Absolute Accuracy
The first requisite to success with
cold-pack canning is absolute accu-
racy. Then, according to government
teachers, this method, one must care
fully unlearn all the lessons of the
old-time. more complicated canning
systems, such as the "open kettle"
method and start with an open mind
to master the five simple steps of the
cold-pack method
There are several variations of the
cold-pack equipment for canning, IN
Guiding hot water baths with home
made outfits and with commercial
equipment, water-seal outfits, and
steam pressure outfits. The steam
pressure outfits save time, but home
made equipment is quite as success
full and calculated to appeal to ma
iority of housewives by reason of its
economy.
Washboiler Is Favorite
A homemade outfit may be made
of such receptacle as washboller,
a large tin pail, lard pail, milk can
or a metal washtub. Such a Gamer
must have a we'll fitting cover and
a false bottom or lifting platform of
wood or metal. This false bottom is
necessary both to support the fruit
Jars and prevent them from coming
in direct contact with heat, and also
to permit free circulation of water
and steam around and under the jars.
In addition to the Gamer, house
wife should have at hand several
bowls and sharp knives for pairing
the fruit or preparing the vegetables;
wooden spoons for packing food in
to Jars; plenty of clean white cheese
cloth and two large kettles for the
blanching and cold-dipping process; a
colander; a supply of new rubber
rings for sealing jars :. jars sterilized
and tempered by heating in water
and allowed to cool in the same wa
ter; quart measure; funnel; clock.
Five Cold-Pack Steps.
The successive steps in this method
are scalding or blanching, cold-dip-
ping, packing the food in jars, ster-
ilizing, and sealing the jars.
The blanching process is accom-
plished by putting the food, thorough
ly cleaned, into large piece of
cheesecloth and lowering this into
a kettle of boiling water, leaving il
immersed for the number of minutes
called for in the canning time SEIZED
ule. The blanching may be done by
suspending the food in cheesecloth
above the boiling water in steam. This
process is of great Importance, elm
mating Objectionable acids, starting
the flow of coloring matter and re-

ducing the bulk of the food.
Shock Kills Bacteria

When food is blanched it MUST be
cold-dipped Immediately after. The
shock from boiling to cold water kills
certain destructive bacteria, "sets"
the coloring matter, and hardens the
pulp under the skin. The food in the
cheesecloth should be lifted directly
from the boiling water and plunged
into a kettle of very cold water. 1t
should never be allowed to stay in
this cold water, but removed immedi-
ately, and drained preparatory to
packing.
A wooden spoon is best for pack
ing the food into jars, since it does
not injure the food as sharp spoon
might. When the jars are packed full
and pressed down, to insure full jars
when finished, the jars should be fill
ed with boiling water if the food is a
vegetable; and with either boiling wa
ter or syrup if it is a fruit. The
scalded rubbers and covers are then
placed on the jars, but not sealed,
lest the air expanding when heated
should blow the rubber out or break
the jar.
No Delay Between Steps
Next comes the sterilizing. The
jars filled with food are placed on
the false bottom of the washboiler
in boiling water which should reach
at least several inches above the tops
of the jars. They must be left in the
boiling water the exact period of time
stated in the schedule for that partic-
ular food, and time should be counted
from the second the water begins
JUMPING over the entire surface.
The cover should then be kept on
tightly until time to remove the jars.
When the sterilizing is completed
the jars should be removed AT ONCE
sealed and tested for leaks by invert-

Government teacher dipping filled par scz

ing or lying on their sides while cool
ing.
Experts in this process emphasize
in addition to the necessity for accu-
racy the fact that there must be NO
DELAY between the five steps.
From government bulletins and
from various books prepared by
teachers of the cold-pack method, the
housewife can find detailed recipes
for each food she may wish to pre-
pare in this way.
