Select good tart apples. Peel them,
and cut them in one-inch cubes. Fry
some bacon in a heavy skillet. AS

remove and drain them on clean

place. Leave about one.fourth cup
fnl of bacon fat in the skillet and fill
it up with the apples. Sprinkle one

Apples fried this way require a little
more sugar than ordinary fried ap-
pies. Cover the apples, cook slowly

and turn the apples gently, SO, that
the pieces will keep their shape Let

November IS, 1703.-Henry Darnell

of Maryland. today transferred to Col.
Ninlan Beall 705 acres, known as the
Rock of Dumbarton. This is the first
record of private ownership of the
land on which Georgetown was builtD
November IS, 1S00.-The House of
Representatives was able at last to
transact business today, as a quorum
appeared for the first time in the
Federal City. The Senate has not yet
obtained quorum. There
are now several companies of militia
in the Federal City. But, as the city
has not yet been laid off into districts,
the companies have not been drawn
from specified areas. 1t appears that
some of the citizens are enrolled in
more than one company. A notice
was printed today in the Sentinel of
Liberty of a meeting here of the Off
militia of Maryland, to be held soon
at Stelle's Tavern. This means that
the Federal City is the center of
force which, if the various orga MIA
tions are up to requirements Of the
law, comprises about $40 men.
November II, 1S62.-Traffic on the
streets of Washington since the war
with the Southern States broke out
has been SO heavy that the streets
are being badly cut up, especially by
the wheels Of the Army wagons and
the guns. The Evening Star today
declared that Pennsylvania avenue
has been churned into fearful canals
and almost unfathomable mud"
November IS, 1SS4.-The keystone
of the Washington Monument, weigh
ing two and one-half tons, was swung

Sermon for Today
BY REV. JOHN r. GUM.
Starless Nights.

Text: '"The stars shall withdraw
their shining. Joel. lilo.
Some one has said: blessed Is the
night, for 1t reveals to us the stars"
But there are nights when the stars
do not appear. There are starless
nights when the stars withdraw
their shining"
Life has a like parallel. 1t has its
night seasons, and many, having
passed through such a season, have
said, This has been a blessed night
for 1t has revealed to me wondrous
stars of divine truth and beauty which
I had never before seem" But some
times there come in life's experience
nights in which no stars appear. We
sometimes find ourselves cropping in
starless night when not single
star twinkles in our sky, when We
can see not a single. ray of hope
shining through the darkness that
surrounds us.
What shall we do at such times?
Shall we surrender to the darkness?
Let Paul answer. In connection with
his shipwreck experience, we read:
And when neither sun nor stars in
many days appeared, and no small
tempest lay on us, all hope that we
should be saved was taken away
Yet, notwithstanding all this. Paul
said: Wherefore, sirs. be of good
| cheer; for / believe God, that it shall
be even as it was told me-
Even as it was told me-" God
says. "I will never leave thee, nor
forsake thee"
IT believe God" No matter how
dark the night. though not a star of
hope I see, l will not doubt God S
promises.
BE of good cheer"-ye that walk
! in the darkness of the starless night
Unto the upright there ariseth light
in the darkness" 1t shall be even as
| God has promised.

Some Formulas.

II your nails have become very
much discolored underneath there are
two formulas useful for bleaching
them. One is to rub lemon juice over
and under and around them: let this
stay on a while, wash off with soap
and clean the nails at once. For very
bad discolorations, mix together a
teaspoonful of ammonia and table
spoonful of soft soap: keep this paste
and rub it under the nails. You can
go on working while the soap stays
under, then wash it out with hot wa
ter and clean with a file.
The cold cream formula is as fol-
lows: White wax, one ounce; sper-
maceti, one ounce; white mineral oil.
