NEED NOT BE WITHOUT HERBS

Even Dwellers in Cities Can Grow Ample B(ipply of Severaf Varieties In Window Boxes. Not everyone has the time or the space for a kitchen garden, but no one need be without the savory herbs which are sometimes /hard to find in the market and which add so much to the tastiness ofUhe table, says a writer in Armour’s Farm Almanac. Even people who live In cities can have a few window boxes, which will produce as much parsley and cress and chives as they will want to use, and which are just as pretty as many decorative plants. The possessor of a back yard need never lack for early vegetables, such as lettuce, beets and onions; and as for the farmer’s wife, there Is no excuse at all for her not having a complete assortment of the lighter vegetables. Fennel, rue, balsam, mint and lavender grow by the roadside, where knowing ones may find them, but the savory vegetables of the garden, which give so mdeh flavor to cooking, are little known. Sorrel grows wild, but Is better when cultivated,, and is the foundation for one of the finest fish sauces in the world, which is made by bruising the young leaves, and pouring over them oil and vinegar in equal parts. It is also excellent in a soup, which is so delicate that invalids and children relish it, especially. To make, wash and boil the leaves for fifteen minutes in water in which potatoes, cauliflower or asparagus . has been cooked; then throw in a handful of rice, boil ten minutes more, add a general lump of butter, pepper and salt, and serve piping hot. Tarragon is a plant which is even less known than sorrel, hut which deserves to he treated with great respect, for it is the flavor, par excellence, for all pickles, salads and chowchdws. The plant is a perennial, which springs up every year, like rhubarb. The pungent little chive, an Infinitesimal onion, is also more or less of a stranger to us, which is a pity, for it is the most delicate in flavor of the onion family, and Is often relished by people who cannot eat its lustier relatives. The leek, too, is delicious, either as a relish, when very young, or fried, as a garnish for meats, or sliced with cucumbers and tomatoes.

ALARM FOR THE DRIP PAN

Handy Contrivance to Remind Housekeeper When to Empty the Re- . frlgerator Pan. Being annoyed by the overflowing of the refrigerator drip pan, I attached the small device shown in the illustration to the refrigerator to remind me to empty the pan before it would overflow, i A cork float and a common spool with wires set Into It at right, angles, cpmprise the outut. The whole device was fastened with

Battery Connections to the Float.

screws to the under side of the refrigerator. When the float has risen to the top, an electric circuit is formed, which rings a bell. The wires can be lengthened and bent to suit the size and depth of the pan used.—Frank W. Preston in Popular Mechanics.

Some Uses for Alcohol.

A little alcohol in hot water is excellent for cleaning smoky lamp chimneys, and varnish stains on glass, tiling and majble wili disappear with its use. Old paint stains, too, will often yield readily to alcohol when they will not to turpentine. The white marks so often left upon a varnished table after water has been spilled upon it can be taken out with alcohol. After putting the alcohol on the stain take care not to touch it until it dries. A slight stickiness results which will disappear in a few minutes, but if touched or rubbed while sticky the surface will either be defaced or the varnish will come off. Small white marks cm varnished furniture will sometimes come off if an ordinary rubber ink eraser is used.

Potato Yeast Cake.

Four medium sized potatoes peeled, boiled, mashed or put through a collander; four tablespoons white sugar, one of ginger, two cups flour. Pour over this one pint boiling water. After it cools put In two yeast cakes; before putting away add one tablespoon salt.'Dottle tightly. Have used this recipe for years with good results. J^v

Take some good cooking apples, pare and core them and stuff with the following filling: One cup of sugar, half a cup of butter, one teaspoon of curry powder, one tablespoon vinegar, mix all together, fill apples and bake till done. -

LAWS INJUSTICE MADE PLAIN

Farmer's Grievance Wee That Btory Once Accepted Should Not Remain Good. -AretoryJsbeinrtoldattheexpeiise of an old English fanner who was recently called upon to explain why he had failed to take out a license for a favorite fox terrier dog. “ 'E’s nobbut a puppy,” the defendant remarked, in response to a question as to the animal’s age. “Yes, yes! So you say. But how old is he?” “Oh, weel, i couldn’ tell to a bit,” was the reply. “I never was much good at rememberlng dates, but Vs nobbut a puppy.” On the other hand, it was maintained that the animal in question was a very, very old-fashioned puppy, and the magistrate inflict/d the usual fine. Shortly afterward the farmer was met by a friend who wanted to know how he had fared at the police court. “Nobbut middlin’,” was the reply. “Did they fine you?” “Yes,” responded the victim; “an’ 'ang me if 1 can understand it! Last year an’ the year afore that I told the same tale about the same dog, an’ it wor alius good enough afore! Who’s been tamperin’ wi’ the law sin’ last year?”

IN AGONY WITH ITCHING

“About four years ago I broke out with sores off my arms like boils. After two months they were all over my body, some coming, and some going away. In about six months the boils quit, but my arms, neck and body broke out with an itching, burning rash. It would burn and itch, and come out in pimples like grains of wheat, I was In a terrible condition; I could not sleep or rest. Parts of my flesh were raw, add 1 could scarcely bear my clothes on. I could not lie In bed In any position and rest In about a year the sores extended down to my feet. Then I suffered agony with the burning, itching sores. 1 could hardly walk and for a long time i could not put on socks. “All this time I was trying everything I could hear of, and had the skill of three doctors. They said It was eczema. I got no benefit from all this. I was neaily worn out, and had given up in despair of ever being cured when I wan advised by a’friend to try Cuticura Remedies. I purchased Cuticura Soap, Ointment, and Resolvent, and usfed exactly as directed. I used tie Cuticura Remedies constantly for four months, and nothing else, and was perfectly cured. It is now a year, and I have ndt had the least bit since. I am ready to praice the Cuticura Remedies at any time. (Signed) E. L. Cate. Exile, Ky., Nov. 10, 1910.''

A Golf Story.

There’s another story of a man who rang the bell at the gates or Paradise and asked Peter if he might go through. “What were you on earth?” asked the saint. “Well,” was->Jhe Response, “during the latter part of my life I didn’t do much but play golf.” “Got a golf ball on you?” “Yes; here’s a ’Chancellor.’” St.( Peter took Jt and threw It over his shoulder, where it rolled away. For a minute or more he looked critically at the applicant, then shut the gate in his facia and locked 1L “What's the game?” sald the man^ “You are no real golfer,” said SL Peter. _“You don’t even know the first rule of golf—to keep your eye on the ball and follow through.”

Eager to See.

“I have a poem here entitled 'Alone with Nature,’ ’’ said the sallow young man with the long hair and the frayed trousers. “It is a personal impression.” * “Is it?” replied the editor of* the Chicago Record-Herald, as he hastily glanced at the opening lines. “Have you ever been alone with nature?” “I have, and, oh, it is glorious —glorious!” “Here’s a filme.
