Tilson and Miss Annie Campbell of this vicinity are married, we're mighty glad of it. Henry’ is unlike the flower that was “‘born to bush unseen.’”’ Then, we have con- sidered him in the way of other good men for some time. He owns a good farm and deserved to own a good housekeeper—and evidently now has all of this. He isa good farmer and could manage the farm all right; and we hope Mrs. T. will manage him the same way. We wish Mr. and Mrs. Tilson many happy and prosperous years.-—Review. Toe Nails Show Character. Columbia, Mo., Jan. 14.—“Chick- ens with short toe nails are the best egg layers,’ said Professor J. E. Rice, poultry expert for Cornell Uni- versity, addressing students of the Agricultural College of the Universi- ty of Missouri here yesterday. “These chickens have short toe nails,” he said, ‘from continuous scratching for food, and a chicken that is constantly scratching for food is sure to be industrious.” The hen of the olden time, Professor Rice said, laid on an average only eighteen eggs a year, while the mod- ern hen of pure breeding will lay from 100 to 200 eggs annually.

WASHED AT HOME Handkerchiefs With Careful Handling Can Be Made to Last Much Longer. elicate handkerchiefs can be done up easily at home, and careful hand- ling causes them to wear much bet- ter. Wet them, rub each gently over with good white soap, and soak in tepid water overnight. Squeeze out (do not wring), put them in a small enameled pan, cover with cold water and half a teaspoonful of powdered borax. Boil slowly, pour into a basin, add cold water and squeeze out all soap. Next immerse them in clear tepid water, rinse about in this; then plunge into cold water tinged with blue. Leave in this for half an hour, squeeze and dip into a slight stiffen- ing (one teaspoonful of corn flour to a cupful of boiling water). Squeeze and roll carefully each handkerchief ‘in a towel, and iron with a moderate- ly hot fron. A Home-Made Present. A row of hand-embroidered scallops to trim a corset cover is not an un- acceptable gift for a friend. Just enough to apply to neck and arm- holes (but enough without a doubt) is a reasonable amount to make. Get handkerchief linen and stamp upon it tiny scallops, with an eyelet in each or in every alternate scallop, if sim- plicity is the point you strive for. This bit of handwork, perfectly pad- ded, buttonholed, eyeleted and then cut out, pressed and mounted upon colored tissue paper, wil not be scorned by the friend in need or the woman who never embroiders. It is entirely applicable to the next corset cover, and easily done at that. —— Cider Pile.

Extractives May Be Hin- dered by Searing Surface of Meat Quickly. The amount of the extractives which will be brought out into the water when meat is boiled depends upon the size of the pieces into which the meat ls cut and on the length of time they are soaked in cold water before be- ing heated. A good way to hinder the escape of the flavoring matter is to sear the surface of the meat quickly by heating it in fat, or the same end may be attained by plunging # into boiling water. Such facts are known to all cooks and have recently been studied systematically at the Illinois experiment station in relation to the amounts removed and the losses which may be involved in different methods of cookery. Such solubility is taken advantage of in making beef tea at home and in the manufacture of meat extract, the extracted material being finally concentrated by evaporating the water. New Cook In the White House. There is a new cook in the White House. She is Flora Hamilton, a young woman of Scotch-Irish descent, who went to Washington from the kitchen of a wealthy New York fam- ily. The New Yorkers gave her up unwillingly, but they were glad to sce Miss Hamilton get such an excellent place. The new cook will have charge of all the cooking in the White House and will direct the serving of the big dinners there during -the winter. Amelia Howard had the place, but she became ill and resigned. Martha Peterson, another recent White House cook resigned to be married to James Mulvey, one of the policemen in the executive offices.
