From MISS META TELFAIR MCLAWS, of Georgia, Alternate Lady Manager. Take one-half cake of best yeast and dissolve in half a cup of tepid water. Add to this batter a pinch of salt and a little sugar. Cover well with a thick cloth and set in a warm place to rise. In the morning add lard and enough flour to make a stiff dough. Now make into roll shape and arrange them in a tin pan.

So, a committee of the patriotic Georgia citizens who had subscribed the founding fund of $100,000 called upon Colonel Telfair at his residence, Cedar Heights, fearful lest the enterprise and the South should suffer by his possible refusal. The colonel received them in his great library, where he spent most of his days. The library had descended to him from his father.

Let's chuck out some of this slush that you've been publishing just because the writers are related to the Skoopdoodles of Skoopdoodle County. Are you with me?" "As long as I continue to be the editor of The Rose," said Colonel Telfair, with dignity, "I shall be its editor.
