CANNING IN GENERAL
SOME BUOOESTIONS PUT .FOR

Delioaclee > Properly Put Up Should
Command a Ready Sale In Addi

Use In the Home,
Canning Is no royal rqad'to fortune
nor Is It an easy Job —its a very hot
and tiresome job—still, It will save
the dollars, and If managed with aire
and lntelUgence, can be made a means
of bring some money In.
I have had very little experience
with intent cancers as I can for our
home consumption only, although I
find a ready sale for all I am not able
to use.
I use UM glass Jars, „ putting up
hundreds of quarts, fruits and vege
tables most successfully.
In the first place everything must
be scrupulously clean and hot.
Blackberries, dewberries, grapes and
swamp huckleberries make delicious
pies for winter use and as they grow
In wild .profusion over our sunny hills,
they are little or no expense.
They are gathered and brought to
our door by the little plokannlnnlea

I notice a great many people use
vlnjgar, white sugar and other pre
'servativoß when canning, but for my
own part I believe nothing' It quite
so good as salicylic acid;
I put Jars and tops in warm water
on the baok of. the stove when can
ning. I have the fruit boiling, fill the
Jars and screw the tops on as tightly
as possible with the handa,, It If beet
to use new rings each season.
When canning beans I gather and
snap Just as.. I do when preparing
them fpr dinner, put them on the fire
mid poyer weij with water. Cook un
-411 port enough *to smash between
the thumb % and finger, stir - acid
through thoroughly, put In Jars and
seal.
To find the pin holee In the tops of
the jars I fill them half full, sorew
the tops on, turn down and give a
vigorous shake.
If there Is a leakage anywhere It
will be readily located with this pro
cess, and with muoh less trouble than
ohanglng tops afterward, thus letting

and slice, or. Jf, very small leave

several slices of fried bacon, the
amount depending upon the number
of potatoes to be used. There should
be enough hot bacon gravy to season
the potatoes nicely. When the bacon

Don't forget—to carefully inspect

OF COLLECTION.
' It may be well that the fire de
partments in -the State shall fully
understand . the conditions upon
which the linsurslnee'Commis
sioner can collect, tax for the
reliCT'Ot of the state.
1. Each city must have a reg
ular organized fire de partment,
under the control of the city of
ficials.
2. The fire apparatus and equip
ment, in serviceable condition,
must be of the value of SI,OOO.
3. The fire waste or building
law must be enforced to the satis
faction of the Insurance Commis
sioner. Inasmuch as there has been
a laxity in some of the cities and
towns in regard to the enforce
ment of this Taw, I desire especial
ly to emphasize this fact.
PURPOSE FOR WHICH THE ;
FUND MAY BE USED.
The special attention of the fire
men, and also ot the trustees of |
the Firemen's Relief Fund in the
difforent cities and towns, is call
ed to the following purposes for
which this fund is collected and
may be used:
1. To safeguard men in active
active service from loss of time by
sickness or accident contracted by
reason of said service.
?. To provide reasonable ; sup
port for those actually dependent
upon firemen who lose their lives
in the service.
3. To care for or pension fire-'
men who have served ten years or
more, and to keep them from the
almshouse or charity.

MERELY A POPULAR BELIEF
Boholara Question Whether the Apple
Waa the "Forbidden Fruit" In the
Garden of Eden.
Why and how it has happened that
the apple has been spoken of as the
fruit that was forbidden in the Oar
den of Eden la one of the great puz
zles of Biblical scholars. The fact ia
\ that in Qeneala 3, where the incident
■ of the eating of thia fruit of the "Tree
lof Knowledge of Oood and Bvll" ia
■ mentioned, no name whatever la given
to the fruit. All that la aald la: "And
I when the woman aaw that the tree
waa good for food, and that It waa
pleasant to the eyea, and a tree to be
dealred to make one wise, she took of
the fruit thereof, and did eat. and gave
also unto her husband with har; and
he did eat" (verse •).
In fact, acholara doubt very aerloua
ly whether It waa the apple at alt.
They auggest that all evidence polnta
to it having been the quince, fragrance
of which waa held In the hlgheat es
teem by the Orientals. Another point
in favor of the quince ia that it la the
fruit which was sacred to Tenna, the
goddeaa of live, and in a great many
of the ancient writlnga the quince Is
very frequently mentioned la this man
ner. In Babylonia Ishtar took the
place of Venua in the Roman mythol.
ogy, and It abould be remembered
that the story of the creation origina
ted with the Babylonians. All evi
dence seems to' point away from tbe
] apple having been the "FVirbldden
.Fruit," and towards tho quince aa hav
ing been that fruit of the "Tree of
Knowledge of Oood and Bvil."

Wordsworth on Real Eatata.
There la an Interesting story of
Wordsworth, who went to cell on Miss
Harriet Martlneau alt Ambleside, In
the house which she bad built and laid
out, wrltea A. C. Benson in the Cen
tury Magazine. There waa a gathering
of neighbors present, %pd Wordsworth
stood for a long time at tho window
contemplating tbe beautiful landscape
outside. Then he turned to the party
and aald: ..
"Miss Msrtlneao, I congratulate yon
on your beautiful little domain. Tbe
! views are wonderful, and It will turn 1
out to be the wisest thing you ever did
In your life."
Re paused for • moment, and the
guests expected some comment on the
uplifting effects of oommunlon with
nature, but Wordsworth, with a fine
gesture, continued:
"Tour property will certainly be
trebled in value within the next tan
yeara!"
Living IN Poise.'
To Improve yourself, the first essen
tial Is to prevent all waste of energy
by living In poise. Tbe secoud' essen
tial Is to use your imagination In pic
turing those things that you want to
accompllah now. And tbe most prac
tical use that can be made of the Im
agination Is to picture your talents and
faculties larger, greater aad more
perfect. To Imagine In mind a larger
and more perfect talent IS to give the
creative forces In mind a better mot
el; and as these forces always create
after tbe fashion of tbe latest model,
[ they will consequently create the lar-
I gar aad the more perfect talent—Lar-
I son.
Different Thing Entirely.
This story Is being told on a Kan
sas lawyer. The lawyer was arguing
a ease before a judge aad, desiring to
I illustrate by supposing a ease, he did
so, as follows: "We will suppose,
your honor," he said, "that your hon
or ware to steal a horse."—"No! Not 1
Not" Interrupted the judge, "not at
aU, aot at all, sir. Taia't a suppos
able case, sir." "Very well, begging
your honor's pardon," said the eager
I lawyer with more seal thaa prudence,
i "very well, than; euppoeiag that I
' should steal a horse."—"Ah, yes. yes,"
 aald the judge, "that la a different
thing, vary differ*t, Mr. & Pro
ceed. air." ■
Deputy (Sheriff Jones, of Walker
town, Forsyth ooanty, tells tbe
WlnSton-tfslem 'Sentinel that his
wife who wore an artificial eye,
was sitting in front of the fire
when the eye exploded. A doc
tor was called in, and it waa found
1 that a large piece of glass from
'the back of the artificial eye had
' been forced back into the socket

Whleh Song "Home, Sweet Heme"
Hae Been Set
Though the oldest piece ot English
music Id existence, "Summer Is leu*
men In" is quite modern in compari
son with a score of the "Oreetee" of
Euripides, dating from the fourth cen
tury B. C., which was exhibited at the
International exhibition of moalc at
Vienna some years ago. Even more
ancient la the chant "The Bleaalng of
the Priest," which waa sung in ths
temple of Jerusalem before the captiv
ity, and ia still in use in the Jewish
synagogues In Spain and Portugal. 1
"Home, Sweet Home" —the song of a
homeless American —once moved Rob
ert Louis Stevenson to an outburst of
passionate protest But It waa the
music rather than the words that
reused his Indignation. You will flnd
the paasage In "Acroeb the Plains":'
I have no idea whether musically thht

but It belonga to that claae ol art

Ownership of Land Accretion.
The title of an owner of land to any
accretlona to the land waa tbe ques
tion presented to the aupreme court
of appeala of Virginia in Eggbora va.
Smith, In which Intereatlng decisions
on the point Involved are cited. In tbe
Virginia case the plaintiff's husband
for a consideration permitted a rail
road company to depoeit rock and
earth on land owned by him during
double-tracking work, under contract
that all auch material not removed be
fore the work was oompleted should
remain permaneotly. The owner exe
cuted a deed ol trust of tbs land with
out serving the material so depoelted,
but on tbe dsy ths property was sold
under foreclosure of tbe trust deed
he ettsmpted to convey the material
as personslty to ths complainant. The
court found that tbe complainant had
made no claim to ths property until
five yesrs after Ite deposit, whan It
was overgrown with vegetation, and
held that "the material waa realty and
not personal property, and passed to
tbe purcbaaer on foreclosure ot the
trust deed."

Honor Men Struck by Lightning.
To be struck by lightning Is still a
most lucky thing for the Orssk peas
ant —if ha Is not killsd. Such a man,
says J. C. Lawaon, "may Indulge a
taste for idleneee tor the reet of bia
Ufa—bla neighbors will support him—
and enjoy at the same time the rep
utation of being aomethlng more than
human." This Is aa lnhsrltanoe from
ancient days. Artemldoras, an so
tbority on occult matters who Sourish
sd In (hs time of Marcos Aurelius,
commented on tbe fact that, while a
piece was struck by lightning had aa
altar erected upon It and waa thence
forth both honored aad avoided, "no
one who has been struck by light
nlng is excluded from eittseneblp; In
deed, such a oae le honored even as
a god." Ths election of Qulntue Ju
lius Eburnus to tbs consulship In llf
B. C. Is attributed to bis having been
favored thus by ths gods.

professor of psychology la "the North
western university, becomes tremen

the great work ahead whan placed

uree In the annual report of ths post

TWO KINDS OF ADVERTISING
One Qlvee Sjpns Facta That Will Draw
Attention of People—Other
le Colorless.
Why advertising doeant pay—bow
; much tha newspaper man eould write
along that Una!
Hare is an ad from aoms substan
tial hones. In which the merchant
|aaya something like this: "Buy tha
best It's the cheapest. Smith, Jones
j* Co, alwaya hare tha beat."
The reader on seeing that ad la
'thereby reminded that Smith, Jones
! A Co., alwaya bars tha beat."
• The reader on seeing that ad la
'thereby reminded that Smith, Jonea
ft Co. are alive. It is as far as it
goee. But he says to himself, They
all claim that," and tha notice makes
comparatively little lmpreealon.
Another man, say a shoe dsalsr.
publishes a notios something like
thia; "Best quality Brown, Johnson A
Co,'a women's kid shoes, hand sswsd,
oak tanned shoss, solid throughout,
patterns aA lasts nsvsr shown previ
ous to May, 111*. Price f325 "
' When your womsn rsadsrs And an
'ad written snmsthlng after that style,
It strikes thsm that for eome good
reason there is a chance to aavs a
-dollar. If they bavs any intention of
buying-such an article In ths near
future, thay era Interested to go la
and look at the goods. A modsrats
