If a manays his debts promptly his
creditors are apt to give him credit for
being honest. They do not ask any
questionsastb how he got his money.
But there is such a thing as robbing
Peter to pay Paul and the fact that a
man pays his debts is only one side of
the question. He is entitled to credit
for doing that of course. There is some
merit in paying what you owe, but it is
at most only a half tone pictuie of a
man's character. The dark side may
be dark indeed. The unseen side may
spoil the picture of a dull face. If he
grinds and oppresses other and exhorts
the money with which he pays his debts
he is not even an honest man. We have
to look all around a man to see whether
he is honest or not.

except the wells, hose and hose carts.
Eugene Bacon will put down the wells,
the price being $375. but they are to be
six inch wells and over fifty feet apart
and equipped with the latest improved
brass points, which are quite expensive.

amount of hose will soon be increased to

had a good deal to contend with in this
matter, but they are earnestly endeavor

money's worth.

TRY THI8 ORANGE CUSTARD.
Confection That Will Be Appreciated
on a Hot Day.
A delightful dessert, called orange
custard, is made by taking the juice
of a sweet orange and half the rind,
which has been boiled until tender.
After It has cooled and has been beat
en fine in a mortar, a tea
spoonful of brandy should be added
with the orange juice, half a cup
or more of granulated sugar and
the yolks of four eggs. Into this
mixture is poured two cups of boiled
cream or rich milk, and the whole
beaten until the custard is cold; then
it should be poured into custard cups,
with a bit of preserved orange placed
on the top of each cup, and served at
once or set away to cool.
Butter and orange juice is prepared
by mixing the juice of three sweetened
oranges with as many teaspoonfuls of
rose water, then adding the well-beaten
yolks of six eggs, the whites of four
and two cupfuls of powdered sugar.
The mixture should be stirred over a
slow fire till it thickens, then a table
spoonful of butter should be poured
into a dessert dish and set away to
cool.

possible. He breathed his last peaceful

TiiE PICNIC LUNCH
REALLY THE STAR FEATURE OF
DAY'S OUTING.
Proper Arrangement and Packing of
Food Neceasary If One Would
Have the Feast Tempting
and Palatable.
Too much luggage spoils the picnic,
and yet the little feast is the star
feature of the day. How, then, to car
ry enough to eat, and at the same
time have it look tempting?
There is a hamper made of light
weight wicker and yet strong enough
to stand the wear of many outings in
the woods.
A telescope shape is easy to handle
and its size can be regulated to fit
the contents so readily that the wom
an who thinks ahead and of the par
ty's return is sure to choose this style
Instead of the square or oblong hamp
er made after the fashion of the Eng
lish tea basket.
Straw cases for bottles, cups and
glasses are superior in many ways to
leather ones. The. lighter covering
may not wear so well as the others,
but it looks much cooler. Hamper
fittings can be bought separately and
tucked away in a plain basket, and if
well packed no danger of breakage
need be feared.
Wooden plates are really much
more picnicky than china. If sand
wiches and cakes are placed on plates
when the basket is being arranged
and each one is wrapped first in a nap
kin wrung out in Ice water, then in
baker's or parafflne paper the food
will be kept perfectly fresh, and it
can be placed at once on the picnic
table when the time for luncheon has
arrived. Lettuce leaves that have been
packed loosely in a linen bag thor
oughly dampened with ice water will
help to give the luncheon table a
fresh, cool and inviting air and they
can be used to garnish the plates of

cold meats and salads, -rnrs is an ex
cellent way to carry green salads, and
if the dressing is made just before
starting and carried In a bottle, or the
ingredients packed so that the dress
ing can be mixed by the salad expert
while the luncheon is being spread
out, the salad will be fresh and crisp.
Tiny cones of salt and pepper, one
packet for each member of the par
ty, are easier to carry and much less
trouble than to take along a set of
shakers.
There are such perfect ways now
of carrying hot or cold liquids and
keeping them at their original temper
ature that few picnic parties bother
with making tea or coffee at the
grounds. A basket that Is well packed
with edibles which have been properly
chilled before starting seldom gets
warm and mussy if It Is handled care
fully and kept out of the sun. Plates
and cups can be kept on the ice for a
while before they are tucked away in
the hamper and they will stay cold for
some time.
Tinned and bottled foods are best
taken In small lots so that they can be
opened as needed and the empty
boxes or bottles thrown away at once.
Having a number of things in this way
does away with passing the food from
one end of the table or luncheon cloth
to the other. Paper napkins are good
enough for the average outdoor func
tion of this kind. They should, how
ever, be supplied in quantities so that
they may be used for covering the
plates, for wiping off dust and for
cleaning the dishes after the meal is
over.
Man Must Think to Live.
The decay of any real power of
thinking Is an adequate explanation
of a deal of the early mortality of
prosperous middle life. The business
man of 40 is often content to live In
the mere practice, as a matter ol
habit, of what he has acquired. He
eats and drinks too much, and the
higher brain centers waste for want'ol
exercise. He dies from stupidity;
there is nothing left to keep kin
alive. London Lancet.
