except the celery in a dish and put them 
through the food chopper just as they 
came, emptying them, after grinding into 
a gallon jar, juice and all. I then put 
on the sugar, vinegar, etc. Not until 
then did I realize that I should have 
drained off the juice. I didn’t know what 
to do, so stirred it up and left it there 
until I should have an opportunity to ask 
some one about it. In a week or so I 
tasted it and found that it tasted good. 
I left it in that jar, in the cellarway, 
with a plate over it all Winter using it 
as I wanted it. The next year I drained 
off some of the juice, hut was not par¬ 
ticular to get it all off, as some think 
necessary. We like this pickle very much 
with any kind of pork. 
For a plain sour cucumber pickle my 
mother’s recipe is: one gallon vinegar, % 
cup salt, % cup mustard, mbs. d. j. m.. 
Tennessee Notes 
Again the tones of the school bell are 
calling the children in from the fields to 
study, and the first days are critical 
times for both teacher and pupils. As 
parents we want to be very careful that 
we do not criticize the teacher, especially 
before the children. Wonder how many 
neighborhoods like our own have to de¬ 
pend on their own exertions for things 
essential to the school-room? We waited 
for two years for seats, and at last de¬ 
cided it was up to us. We now have 
$53.55 in the treasury, and hopes of 
doubling that amount from the proceeds 
of our entertainment. As this is my 
first effort in that line I am not going to 
give advice because as yet I am seeking, 
but I know that some of our most un¬ 
promising material has turned out real 
well, and as for make-ups, we used char¬ 
coal, lip-sticks, eyebrow pencils, etc., 
sheep’s wool, and hemp ropes for mak¬ 
ing mustache. The wool is on the sheep¬ 
skin which is washed and combed out, 
colored the desired shade and made to fit 
head or face for wigs or beards. The 
hemp rope is untwisted, sewed on cloth 
turned over, sewed again, and made in 
any shape or size desired. We used 
sheets for our back curtains, and bor¬ 
rowed our front curtains. We covered 
a bench for a sofa and just got by with 
the very least possible expenses, but we 
drilled, drilled, and practiced until they 
were as near perfect as we could make 
them, and the result far exceeded our 
expectation, so I believe where there is 
a will there is always a way. 
There is a tang of frost in the air, 
and apple butter looms up in the future. 
Two days’ hard work ; crocks to scald 
and air, apples to gather, peel and quar¬ 
ter, furnace to make and fit to kettle, 
which is a large brass kettle. Early the 
second morning the kettle will be scoured 
'bright, apples washed and after kettle 
is placed in furnace with water to the 
proportion of one pint to gallon of cut 
fruit, and allowed to get hot. the apples 
will be added; then when apples begin to 
boil the stirter will be used regularly, 
until apples are cooked up smooth. Then 
sugar, one pint to the gallon of cut 
fruit, will be added, and butter cooked 
two hours, then fire drawn, butter dipped 
into crocks, which are securely tied up 
when cold. We usually make from 25 to 
30 gallons of this. As it takes about 
three gallons of cut fruit for one giillon 
of butter, it means work, but after it is 
done how relieved one feels, when think¬ 
ing of hot biscuits, cream, butter and ap¬ 
ple butter for breakfast through the long 
Winter months. 
Tobacco cutting is on hand; it surely is 
a waxy job, and the washings! But the 
men folks usually wear special garb for 
this work and save their regular every¬ 
day wear. With all the hard work it is 
certainly a gamble, for one has no idea 
what the price will be. 
I have been trying to save cream, but 
find it a losing job unless one was able 
to buy a separator. If one had a good 
farm fully equipped one might clear ex¬ 
penses, but as it is, well, it sometimes 
seems to be a losing job. 
Such chilly weather makes one a hit 
blue. If we should be visited by an early 
frost it would surely mean untold hard¬ 
ships on many whose lives are naught 
but toiling struggles now, to live.

Uncooked Jackson Pickles 
Take firm smooth green tomatoes, slice 
and sprinkle with cup of salt, let stand 
over night. In the morning pour clear 
cold water over them and drain at once. 
Be careful to drain all the water off so 
it will not weaken the vinegar. Then 
pack in jars in layers with white mustard 
seed, plenty of horseradish cut in small 
pieces or chopped, and small bits of green 
pepper, allowing about six peppers to 
each peck of tomatoes. Cover with cold 
cider vinegar, lay plate on the pickles, 
and tie cloth over the jar, or they may 
be packed in smaller jars if preferred. 
This was a popular pickle in the good 
old days when nobody had reason to 
doubt the quality of cider vinegar.

If the feet tire easily when standing at 
the ironing board, fold an old comforter 
several times and stand on this. Do 
not iron suc-h things as dishcloths, wash- 
rags, etc. Fold carefully and put in a 
place apart from wearing clothes, that 
they may be found readily when wanted. 
MRS. LILLIE YORK,

Learn how millions 
get whiter teeth 
This offers a delightful test which 
will bring a new conception of what 
clean teeth mean. 
It means whiter, cleaner, safer 
teeth, such as millions now enjoy. 
See what it brings to you. 
The war on film 
Dental science is now fighting filrxi 
—the cause of most tooth troubles. 
Film is that viscous coat you feel. 
It clings to teeth. Under old meth¬ 
ods of tooth brushing, much of it 
remains. 
It becomes discolored, then forms 
dingy coats. That is why so many 
teeth look cloudy. 
Film also causes most tooth 
troubles. It holds food substance 
which ferments and forms acid. It 
holds the acid in contact with the 
teeth to cause decay. Germs breed 
by millions in it. They, with tartar, 
are the chief cause of pyorrhea. 
These troubles became almost 
universal when that film was left on 
teeth. _ 
Modem research has discovered 
two effective film combatants. One 
disintegrates the film at all stages 
of formation. One removes it with¬ 
out harmful scouring. 
Tests have proved that these 
methods mean a new era in teeth 
cleaning. A new-type tooth paste 
Protect the Enamel 
Pepsodent disintegrates the 
film, then removes it with an 
agent far softer than enamel. 
Never use a film combatant 
which contains harsh grit. 
The New-Day Dentifrice 
Based on modern research 
has been created to apply them daily. 
The name is Pepsodent. 
Now the use of Pepsodent has 
spread the world oyer, largely by 
dental advice. 
Look at what Pepsodent does 
The use of Pepsodent will bring 
at once a new conception of clean 
teeth. 
It does more than fight film. It 
multiplies the alkalinity of the saliva, 
which is there to neutralize mouth 
acids. It multiplies the ptyalin in 
saliva, which is there to digest starch 
deposits on teeth. 
These combined effects will be a 
revelation to you. 
Send the coupon for a 10-Day 
Tube. Note how clean the teeth feel 
after using. Mark the absence of 
the viscous film. See how teeth be¬ 
come whiter as the film-coats dis¬ 
appear. 
Compare the new way with the 
old, decide for yourself what is best.
