SALISBURY. i
Some time ago the town council
passed an ordinance granting the Sa- |
lisbury School Board the street
rights to put down a sewer from the
school building. This is very much
needed and laborers are now at work
digging the necessary ditches, the
tile having already been“distributed.
The sewer will follow Ord street, to |
Grant street, thence along Grant |
street to the watering trough, down |
past the Reitz apple-buter facory and
will empty on a parcel of ground re-
cently purchsed by the school board
for this puropse.

GEM OF PENNSYLVANIA HISTORY
Pennsylvania came in for more
praise at the San Francisco exposi-
tion the other day in tonnection with
the celebration of the anniversary of
the meeting of the First Continental
Congress in Philadelphia, and one of
the things emphasized was that while
this state has been a leader in the
fighting of all the wars of the nation,
it has been a power for peace. To be
sure, with the Quakers participating
in its founding, peace has always
been among the principals of the com-
monwealth. but on account of the
brilliant military record of the state,
its acts of peace are sometimes allow
ed to grow dim, remarks the Pittsburg
Post. However, in this connection,
there are two incidents that we have
always thought should be chronicled
side by side as illustrating Pennsyl-
vania’s readiness both to fight and to
forgive.
Fort Sumter was fired upon at 4:30
o'clock in the morning of April 12.
1861. Before evening Pennsylvania had
the answer of the North on record in
| the shape of an appropriation of
$500, 000 to arm at once for the fight
and a few days later had troops in
Washington as the “first defenders
of the capital.”
| But the war over, it was the Dunk-
ards of Pennsylvania who were among
the firstato show the spirit of healing.
| They sent to the impoverished rebels
| of the Shenandoah valley the seed
wheat necessary to sow their fieids
The history of Pennsylvania is futl
of such gems.

Cake Hints.
A good pinch of salt improves any
cake.
Half water, instead of milk, makes
a lighter cake.
If your cake rises in a mountain in
the middle the reason is your dough
was too thick.
If it goes down in the middle your
dough was too rich, too much sugar.
The cause of large holes in cakes is
too much baking powder. ;
To sprinkle flour in greased pans
prevents cake from sticking.
A pan of water‘in the bottom of the
oven keeps the bottom of a cake from
‘burning.
A paper over the tin keeps the top
from burning.
Household Hints. ;
