SANGERVILLE, Va., Dec. 21. —
Christmas is nearing and one can
see more or less preparation being
made. Many presents are already
being received. Programs are being
arranged in some of the schools and
a nice entertaining evening is being
promised.
Mr. D. Earl Sanger continues to
slowly improve. It will be remem
bered that he was hurt in a game
of basket ball several weeks ago at
the Sangerville graded school.
Mr. R. A. Cupp and wife were
in Bridgewater yesterday.
Mr. E. R. Roof has bills posted an
nouncing sale of his personal prop
erty next Friday. Mr. Roof had the
misfortune to lose his wife by death
last week. He lives near Spring
Many turkeys are being moved for
the Christmas market. The market
is more favorable this year for the
average pocketbook.
Dr. Jim Long and wife of Frede
rick, Md. ; are expected at Mr. and
Mrs. C. D. Sanger's this week. Mrs.
Sanger is a sister to Dr. Long. Doc
tor is a specialist.
Services at Brethren Church at
Sangerville and Emmanuel Church
on Christmas day. All are invited.

WEAK KIDNEYS MAKE
WEAK BODIES
Kidney Diseases Cause Half the
Common Aches and Ills of
Staunton People
As one weak link weakens a chain,
so weak kidneys weaken the whole
body and hasten the final breaking
Overwork, strains, colds and other
causes injure the kidneys, and when
their activity is lessened the whole
body suffers from the> excess of uric
poison circulated in tin- blood.
Aches and pains anel languor and
urinary ills conic, and there is an
ever-increasing tendency towards
fatal Bright's disease
There is on real help for the sufferer
except kidney help.
Doan's Kidney Pills act directly
on the Kidneys and strike at. the root
of the trouble. Staunton cures are
the proof.
Mrs. George W. Euhank, 212 S.
Washington street, Staunton, Va.,
says: "For six month I was trou
bled by backache and could not at
tend to my housework. My kidneys
were also weak and I was annoyed

Doan's Kidney Pills, procured at

DELICIOUS HOLIDAY MACAROONS.
*I!E you fond of macaroons? Well.
the little folks always are, and
macaroons are cakes that will
aeld to the luxury of any Christmas
table. As nuts form the basis of mac
aroons, they ai'e nutritious as well as
delicious.
How to Makes Them.
One recipe for preparing macaroons
is as follows: Take one-half a pound
of almonds. Soak them iv boiling wa
ter until the sidns rub off easily.
Then reduce them to a paste by
pounding them in a mortar, using
about a teaspoonfol of rosewater to
meiisten theci. Add to this about half
a pound of sugar.
Beat two eggs until they are stiff.
Stir in enough of the white of eggs
with the almonds to form a paste.
Take flour on the hands and work
the paste into cakes the size of the
macaroons you buy. Place them on
battered paper laid on a pan. Tut in
a moderately hot oven and bake a few
minutes.
Another Recipe.
One can also make good macaroons
according to this recipe: Take one-half
a pound of almonds. Blanch, dry and
pound in a mortar with a little rose
water until they are a paste.
Take the whites of three eggs and
beat them, stirring in half a teaspoon
ful of almond essence. Add to the
eggs a coffee cupful of white sugar.
Then work in the almond paste, us
ing about a tablespoonful of flour to
give it consistency. Take a lump about
the size of a walnut, flatten and place
on a pan covered with buttered paper.
Bake until they are a light yellow.
Insxp-MGive Macaroons.
Only an ounce of ground or grated
almonds is required in this recipe.
Take the white of one egg to which
has beeu added about a tablespoonfol
of milk. Moisten the almonds with
rcsewater and pound to a paste in a
mortar. Add to the beaten eggs and
milk their weight in powdered sugar,
then stirring the almond paste mixed
with about two ounces of sifted flour.
Bake on buttered paper in a moderate
oven for twenty minutes.
With Cocoanut.
For cocoanut macaroons take a quar
ter of a pound of ________ cocoanut. _
quarter of a pound of powdered sugar
aud the whites of two eggs. Proceed
as for almond macaroons.
A dessert may be- made from an ori-i-
I nary rich boiled custard with the ____
tion of ground macaroons. Add to th..
uncooked custard six ground maea
' roons. Cook the macaroons in the cus-
I tard. add a iight flavoring of v:.:_!!a
