Chop" fine one-half pound suet, add one half pound currants, one. half 'pound finely sliced citron, one half pound brown sugar, the crumb from che inside of a pound loaf of bread, one cup pastry flour sifted with a half tablespoon of ground cloves, one tea spoon of soda, a half tablespoon of tinnamon, a half tablespon of nut meg, a teaspon of salt. Then, when these dry ingredients are very thor oughly mixed, add one cup milk, a quarter cup cider, four well beaten sggs and two tablespoons lemon juice. The original recipe of course called tor brandy. Grape juice may be used instead of lemon juice. The batter is poured into greased cans, covered lightly with their tops, and steamed for thre'e hours. It will keep for weeks if it is kept covered. When you wish tor serve it, set the can containing it on a rack in a pan of boiling water and let it boil slowly for about an hour. * * Good Vegetable Salad Use any cold cooked vegetables you have on hand. Chill them thoroughly and combine them carefully and at tractively. String beans and cauliflow er go well together. Diced beets and peas, lima beans and carrots, carrots and peas, chopped spinach alone—these are but suggestions. The cook wth an instinctive feeling for what is good in combination will devise a salad out of any left-over vegetables she may have on hand. * sfr Easily Made Toffee To make ordinary toffee put a pound of granulated sugar in a sauce pan, with a teacup of water, a quarter pound of buttgr, and a small can of condensed milk. Cook this slowly for three-quarters of an hour, stirring oc casionally to keep from cooking too fast. To test it let some drop from the end of a spoon on a cold plate and if when cool it is the consistency of tof fee it is ready to take from the fire. Add a few drops of vanilla. Have a plate or plates ready buttered and turn the toffee on this to harden. When it is fairly solid cut into pieces of desir ed size with a clean pair of scissors. Roll each piece in a little powdered sugar and do up in a little piece of oiled paper.

REYNOLDS "The Southern Independent,” edit ed and published by the “Reynolds for Senator” campaign committee, made its bow this week in Volume I., Num ber 1. The newspaper is of four pages, six columns to the page, dressed up with effective headlines and illuminated with orinigal cartoons and photo graphs. There are news articles, edi torials, letters to the editor, and spe cial features, ’n’everything. The flagstaff of the new paper an nounced that it will be "published* ev ery once in awhile at Asheville, N. C., and subscription rates are "any amount you wish to give to the people’s cause for good government.” A large part of the initial number is given over to argument in favor of "better beer,” and modification of the Volstead law through a submis sion of the prohibition question co a vote of the people. A four-column cartoon depicts a group of individuals on the seashore, while Senator Cameron Morrison is floundering in the storm waves off shore. The individuals who appear powerless to aid the distressed senator are labeled: Reynolds Tobacco Com pany, Southern Power Company, Am erican Tobacco Company, Duke Pow er Company, and Big Money Interests. Senator Morrison is scored editorial ly for supporting the two-billion dol lar dole to the capitalists and voting against a $750,00(1,000 dole for relief of starving unemployed people. Several of the news articles deal with the support that is being tendered R. R. Reynolds in* his race for the U. S. Senate.

Selecting qne protestant denomina tion whose records had been kept care fully, he set down the number of new members added each year. Opposite this, in another column, he classified each year from an economic stand point as prosperous or bad. The year 1865 was an inflation year; nineteen thousand people joined this particular church. In 1866 came panic, and new members jumped to thirty thousand.^ Then years of "good” times, but bad times for the church, until the panic of 1873, when up shot the member ship, reaching a "hew high” in 1877, when prosperity registered a "new low.” Panic in 1893 was followed by a church gain in 1894; the pinch of 1907 by a boost in membership in 1908. And so on. I fancy the same thing is happen ing today; at least our church has been full recently. Last Sunday the pastor chose this unusual text: "And when David inquired of Je hovah (as to whether he should at tack the Philistines) Jehovah said: And it shall be when thou hearest the sound of marching in the tops of the mulber ry trees that then thou shalt bestir thyself; for then is Jehovah gone out aefore thee.” The preacher said that religion con sists in being able to recognize the ex traordinary in the ordinary things of life. Many people hear the wind in the trees, and say: "It is the wind !n the trees.” Now and then comes one who says: “It is 'the footsteps of Jeho vah.” Many people see the turmoil of the present, and say: "It is confusion; it is anarchy it is hopeless.” But those who are wiser say: “It is God remould ing His world into a new and better image. Let us bestir ourselves and go forward.” The sermon lifted us. It was a clear prophetic voice announcing that the Power which made the world has not deserted it, is still working in it. It made us feel that we ought to lift our eyes and be active, lest these great and far-reaching changes come to pass without our recognizing them. I advise all preachers these days to preach a positive faith. To put aside any sermons that criticize people or discourage them, and preach confi dence ,and courage and hope. Men need this now. If the church can provide it, the church will make great gains. Bad times have always been its best times. NOTICE OF FORECLOSURE SALE. Valuable Real Estate.
