knowledge through the good columns
of the Sun the receiving of snappy
'epistle from Mr.. Austine and Adonis
McWherter. This letter was dictated
to the best looking stenographer in
South Carolina, and was joint effu-
sion from the two above mentioned
killers. The only objection we had
to the letter was that we prefer violet
to lavender. Tell the fair one to
change her brand, and then she may
write us whenever the feel of the void
comes over her. These fervid fans
inclosed five spot to be given to the
first pitcher who won a game for
Greeneville. Mr.. Kimery arried this
home with him on Friday afternoon.
1t must be fine to be near the ocean
while the present styles are on and
so far from home that not whisper

The Dopester has not been close
enough in touch with the local base

give honor to whom honor is due, but
we understand that the management
is we'll pleased with the present out

is fine to have feeling like this

ALkALI IN SOAP
BAD FOR THE HAIR

Soap should be used very carefully if
YOU want 10 keep your hair looking its
bcst.Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries the
scalp, makes the hair brittle, and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is Null
eified cocoanut oil shampoo (which Is
pure and greaseless), and is better than
ANYTHING else YOU can use.
One OF two teaspoonfuls will cleanse
the hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply
moisten the hair with water and rub it
in, IL makes an abundance OF rich creamy
lather, which rinses out easily, removing
every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and
excessive oil The hair dries quickly and
evenly, and it leaves the scalp soft, and
the hair fine and silky, bright lustrous,
fluffy and easy TO manage.
You can get Mulsi6ed cocoanut oil
shampoo at any pharmacy, it S very cheap,
and few ounces will supply every mem
Der of the family for months.

thing Of the past As matter Of fact
the person who drums with his fingers
and beats tattoos makes those around
him nervous and unhappy. and no one

The card player should take care
how he controls his fingers. A rather
wou-known American ambassador in
one OF the largest courts In Europe not
long ago had the habit Of naoistening
his thumb At his mouth when he was
about to deal the playing cards This
was seemingly z minor ofkense, but the
fact that he did this soon was q matter
OF petty gossip from one end of Europe
to another and was looked upon with
really serious diplomatic break.

words.

A. DAY OF WORK.

We have all heard that old saw OF
one that runs something like it, and
we have most Of US believed the truth
of 1t. And in most cases 1t is true.
With the enactment of an eight-hour
labor law for women in many of our
states We may perhaps be justified in
wondering whether 1t isn't just q little
unfair to the housewife-that just
because she has elected to be a wife
and mother she cannot have a rea-
sonable sort Of working day. Suppose
she should try to pan an eight
hour work day for herself? Some
housewives have done it, and they
were housewives who had to and who
did accomplish a very great deal In a
day. The idea was that instead of
scattering their work over the entire
waking hours they concentrated.
They worked intensely and with close
application while they worked and
then felt that they had earned a real
respite from their labors when the
work was accomplished.
Often there are two women in the
household who share the housework.
and in many cases both these women
are more or less occupied all Of the
time, although perhaps both together
do not accomplish more than eight
hours of intensive housework Well,
why shouldn't they go about 1t In a
definite way and work in shifts?

The Successful Muffin.

There are really only four essential
ingredients to mullins: liquid. salt,
-four and a leavening agent. Mullins
would still be mullins without salt.
but they would soon prove unpalat-
able. Hence salt is considered essen
tial.
Mullins are made from a thick bat
ter which has twice as much -four as
liquid. Again, popovers are an excep-
ton. for they are made from a thi
batter with equal parts of liquid and
-four
Muffins are much like cake. with the
essential difference that they are not
so sweet-in fact, IN some cases they
are not sweet at all-that they con-
tain usually much less shortening and
that they are eaten when warm or
very fresh. The fact that mullins are
usually eaten with butter makes a
generous amount of shortening in the
making unnecessary.
Mullins should always be baked in a
quick. hot oven. They depend on the
quick heat for part of their rising and
popovers and other very light and
delicate mullins should always be
poured into heated cups or pans.
Stoneware custard cups. with rounded
bases, are the best dishes in which to
cook popovers. as they maintain an
even heat better than tins do. The
fact that mullins must be cooked in a
quick oven makes IT especially neces-
sary to protect them from burning, A
small pan of water placed on the bot
tom of the oven floor helps to keep the
heat in the oven even and does much
to prevent burning.
For the sake Of good digestion muf-
fms should be removed from the oven
and from their pans ten minutes be-
fore they are eaten. They should be
turned on a wire frame. At the time
of eating they will then be warm, but
they viii not be sogsy, and they will
not be hot-and sqgsy bread is sure
enemy to good digestion. Mufips
cooled in this way can be eaten with
out danger or discomfort by almost
every one.

For Itching Torture
Use Antiseptic Liquid Zemo

There is one remedy that seldom
fails to stop itching torture and re-
lieve skin irritation, and that makes
the skin soft, clear and healthy.
Any druggist can supply you with
zemo, which generally overcomes
S1kin diseases. Eczema, itch.
pimples. rashes, blsckheads, in most
cases give way to zemo. Frequently
minor bIemishes disappear over
tight. !, Itching usually stops in
stantly. Zemo Is q safe. antiseptic
liquid, clean, easy to use and de-
Iendabse. 1t costs only Csc: an
extra large bottle, $1.00. 1t will not

positively safe for tender. sensi-

'eIn skin troubles, ordinary soaps
ore irritating and liable to aggra-
vste the condition. Use Zemo soap.
