The Price of 25 Cents' Worth.
Maggie was fat, old and colored,
and suffered from rheumatism. A
friend who suffered from the same ail
ment had obtained some relief from a
salve. Nothing would do but for Mag
gie to have some, so she went to the
nearest store.
“I have had rheumatism for 15 years
and want 25 cents’ worth of something
to cure it,” she said.
The clerk smiled and got her the
remedy. When he returned Maggie
laid a quarter on the counter and
asked:
‘•How much?”

The Difficulty.
‘‘Does the doctor hold out any hope
of your Uncle Dob’s getting well?”
asked an acquaintance.
‘‘Oh, yes!’’ replied Zeke Sawney of
Straddle Ridge. ‘‘He says that in a

to whip his weight in wildcats? The

whur are we going to get the wild

This Little One
Had Colic for
Three Months
"My baby suffered from colic for
three months and I was afraid I was
going to lose her,” writes Mrs. A. J.
Tolbert, of Holley, Fla., "but she soon
got over it when I gave her Teethina,
and now I will never be without It, for
I give it to both my little ones and
it keeps them well.”
Colic is a very common complaint
with babies and if not corrected in
time often leads to more serious dis
turbances. Teethina corrects baby’s
indigestion, relieves distress due to
an overloaded stomach, cleans out the
bowels and regulates the system.
Teethina can be had at any drug
store or send 30c to the Moffett Lab
oratories, Columbus, Ga., and receive
a large package and a free copy of
Moffett’s Illustrated Baby Book. —(Ad-

Mechanical Bread Slicer.
A mechanically operated bread slic
er, described in Popular Mechanics
Magazine, Is driven by a motor or
other suitable power, and has been
designed for use in places where large
quantities of bread are required. The
loaves are placed in rows on a con
veyor which carries them lengthwise
to the knife where the slicing is done.
The slices fall into pans on a second
and lower conveyor and are deposited
In a basket or other container at the
end of the machine.

COOK TOUGH CHICKEN
IN FIRELESS COOKER
It Should Be Allowed to Remain
at Least Two Hours or
Until It Is Tender. .
(Prepared, by the United State* Department
of Agriculture.)
Cook the less tender chickens in the
fireless cooker, suggests the United
States Department of Agriculture. It
is best to disjoint the chicken when it
is to be prepared in this way. Pin
feathers, the oil sac and surplus fat
should be removed and the fine hairs
singed. After being well washed the
parts may be put immediately into boil
ing water sufficient to cover them and
seasoned to taste.
The chicken should be simmered
half an hour and then put into the
fireless cooker, where It should remain
at least two hours and as much longer
as is necessary to cook it tender. It
should not be left In the cooker long
enough to cool, even to the lukewarm
stage, for at such temperatures bac
teria in it may develop and cause food
poisoning. Many cooks consider that
a clove or garlic In the stewing water
gives an almost imperceptible flavor,
which improves the flatness of ordinary

Chicken Salad.
boiled chicken. A small onion is some
times made to answer the same pur
pose, but too much onion destroys
the delicate flavor of the chicken.
The boiled chicken, when It is ten
der, may be prepared for the table in
a variety of ways. It may be fricasseed
in a gravy made from the chicken
stock, or served in a cream sauce on
toast, in patty shells, or en casserole.
It may be used for chicken salad;
croquettes of minced cooked chicken
are good, as is chicken hash on toast.

Pour over this 1 cupful boiling water.

SERVE EGGS WITH TOMATOES
Attractive Way Is Suggested by De
partment of Agriculture—Eggs
Cooked in Cups.
When fresh tomatoes are in season
an attractive way of serving eggs Is
to cook them In tomato cups, suggests
the United States Department of Agri
culture.
Select the desired number of good
sized tomatoes, allowing one to each
person. Cut off the blossom end,
scoop put the seeds and stand the to
matoes in a baking pan in the oven
until they are partly cooked. Put
one-half teaspoonful of butter and a
dusting of salt and pepper into the
bottom of each and break in one egg.
Place in the oven until the eggs are
“set” to the desired hardness. Have
ready a, round of toasted bread well
buttered, and place each tomato in the
center of a round of toast, serve hot.
