During the hot weather there ls .great demand for cooling drinks, and we prefer those made at home with materials which are unquestionable, rather than many which are served in bottles or at the fountains. In the fol lowing, there surely will be found one which will suit the palate of all: Ginger Water.-This is th old-fash ioned drink which used to be carried to the fields to refresh the tillers of the soil who have made our country what it ls today. This drink is Just as popular today among the descend . ants of the early fathers of our coun try, and is so easily prepared that lt ishould be more frequently used. Take a tablespoonful of ground ginger, add three of sugar and a pint of ice cold water: stir well and serve. In the olden times they sweetened this with molasses. Rhubarb Drink.-This is a very re freshing as well as wholesome drink for children. Boil seven or eight stalks of pie plant in a quart of water for ten minutes; strain into a pitcher in which has been placed the thin rind of a lemon. Add four tablespoonfuls of sugar and let stand for a few hours before serving. Orangeade.-Make a sirup by boil ing half a pound of lump sugar with a cup of water. Pare four oranges very thinly, put the rinds in a pitch er and pour on the boiling hot sirup. Let stand until cold, then add the juice of the oranges and six lemons. Add a quart of ice cold water, and : serve. Boston Cream.-This is a drink which will keep, and will be ready to use in an emergency: Take two pounds ot* lump sugar and five pints . of water: boil together fifteen min utes. When cool add half an ounce of lemon extmct, two ounces of powdered tartaric acid and the whites of three eggs well beaten. When quite cold, bottle. When required for use, pour a few tablespoonfuls of the mixture in a glass, fill with three parts water, stir up well and add a quarter of a teaspoonful of soda. Stir briskly and ?serve at once. cheap pleasures.

There are few people who are will ing to forego the pleasure of a des sert, ar.l usually feel if none is pro vided that they have bee.! defrauded. Orange Charlotte.-Soak one and a half tablespoonfuls of gelatine ia a third of a cup of water. To a third of a cup of boiling water add a cupful of sugar, three tablespoonful.-; of lemon juice and a cup or* orange juice and pulp.

THE REUNION i Maids and Sponsors To Open Series On Morning Of the First Day i ' Sons of Veterans and Military Organi zations Second Day, While the Veterans Parade Last Day. Jacksonville, Fla.-With the neai approach of May (J, interest tn the I 24th annual reunion of the Fnited Confederate Veterans' Association and Sons of Confederate Veterans, centers around the three parades, one each day of the reunion. It has been den nitely decided that the first parade will bo that of the maids and sponsors and it will be given on the afternoon of May 6. This parade will be confined to au tomobiles and carriages aad all spon sors and maids of honor will be ad mitted to lt. The Jacksonville Re union Association has decided that if possible, the parade of maids and sponsors will be the finest spectacle of the kind ever seen in the southern states. The route will be several miles long and passes through the principal residence and business sections of the city. The parade of the second day, Maj 7, will be of the Sons of Confederate Veterans and local military organiza tions. It is the present plan for the Sons to march on foot, and the parade will take in the business section., ol the city. On the morning of May 8, the lasl day of the reunion, the annual parade of the Confederate Veterans will be held. Jacksonville labors under a dis advantage in staging this parade that no other reunion city has ever en countered, that of securing horses There are very few available horses in Jacksonville, and as a result it has been decided to make the parade a combination between horses, automo biles and foot-marching. The local association believes that it will be possible for the commanders and theil staff officers to te provided witt mounts, but it is going to be a diffi cult matter to secure a sufficient num ber even for that. However, a united effort is being made to secure all the mounts possible in Jacksonville and nearby towns in Florida and Soutt Georgia. Arrangements for these parades are being worked out rapidly by specia committees. Maj. S. C. Harrison is chairman of the committee that will have chargo of the Sons of Veterans parade. He is being assisted by the local camp of Sons of Veterans, ol which Judge John L. Dodge is com mander. Adjt.-<!en. N*. H. Forrest, ol the National rfons of Veterans, is here givinn much of his attention to these arrangements. Dr. W. M. Stinton is c-hairman ol ;hf committee on entertainment ol maids and sponsors, and has been working on plans for some time witt a corps of assistants. He will organ ize the entire program of the maids and sponsors entertainment feature; and promises to give the visiting la di^s tim best possible reception ic Jacksonville. Gen. John L. Inglis, commander ol th-? Florida division, I". (\ V., is, un der the rules of the United Confeder ate Veterans' Associations, chief mar shal of the veterans parade, with Cen W. II. Sebring. chief aide. Cen. Inglis wants a parade in whieh the older vet erans will occupy automobiles and car riages, wijh commanders and as manj of their staffs as possible on horse bark. The veterans' parade is being worked out along these lines. The social functions of the reunion will be about the same as have pre vailed at other reunion cities. Three balls will be given during the week, one for maids and sponsors, one foi the Sons of Veterans and the other for the veterans themselves. Ge?. Bennett H. Young appointed as his chief sponsor Miss Corrinne Hampton, of Columbia, S. C. His maids of hon or are Misses Minnie Brock, of Chat tano-ga; Eloise Washburn, of Mont Kom<try. Ala., and Miss f?ladys Ker nan, of New Orleans. These ladies repre. "t the south in the social func tions of the reunion. A dancing pavilion will be erected close t > the business sections of the city, a::<! it will be' large enough to accommodate the reunion balls, in additioi; to the balls there will be a number of events on the program for the em i tainment of official ladies. Chief among these is a trip to the sea shore, an I an excursion or two on the St. Johns river. Some two hundred young III- :i have volunteered their services as escorts for the visiting la dies, and e. "rything points to a most enjoyable week for all who may par ticipate in the social functions aad the annual parades. ? Home-Raised Colt. Still the wonder grows that a greater number of farmers do not. raise more horses and mules. Several days ago Mr. \V. E. Winn sohl a home-raised eok to his brother, Mr. J. E. Winn, for $200. Those who saw the fine young mare say she was a great bargain at that price. The Winn brothers can afford to keep brood mares, because they al ways grow an abundance of corn at home to si Dplv thc farm. FIRE INSURANCE Go to see Harting & Byrd Before insuringjelsewhere.
