j MARY TODD'S PECAN CAKE is a
cake with a history. It Is one of
tbe most popular cake3 in Kentucky
asd It Is said that Abraham Lincoln
tclared it to be his favorite cake.
Certainly the recipe originated in
tbe home of Mary Todd's family in
Lexington although there are many
Variations of it today Make the cake

Cal of butter well; then add gradu-
ally two cupfuls of granulated sugar.

W the butter and sugar; then stir
fa alternatly a cupful of orange
5!ce and the flour reserving a por-itkm'-of
the latter for dredging the
tfrs& and nuts. Beat well then add.
three-quarters o a pound of pecan

Sliss Jennie's Black Cake Is the
9tSAe of Louisville. "Miss Jennie."

i caterer.
j HISS JENNIE BENEDICT'S BLACK
CAKE. Cream a pound of butter
jriti . a pound of sugar and
add a cupful . of New Orleans

-been carefully browned. Next dis
solve two teaspoonfuls cf baking
powder in a cup of cream or new
milk and Md to the mixture; flavor
with two grated nutmegs a table
spoonful each of cinnamon and
allspice which should be dissolved
In' a glass of wine says Misa Jen
nie; but I have found grape juice or
orange juice satisfactory. Chip two
pounds of seeded raisins balf a
pound of candied pineapple and
clean a Dound of currants. Add tbe3e
o the cake batter with two pounds
at almonds blanched and chopped!
Bake in a moderate oven for four or
fire hours.
This cake may be kept from year
to year as it is very rich and dark
and deliciously moist and tender. I
have found it a good plan to steam
it for two hours then to finish it by
linking in a moderate oven two
jours.

tacle attendant upon the crowning of
King McNeil and Queen Kathryn of
the First Pure Food Show and Manu-
facturers' Exposition of Brownwood.
There were not over a dozen vacant
seats on the lower floor and many
Seats in the galleries were taken. It
was a representative throng in every
sense of the word. The ladies of the
Woman's Missionary Society of the
First Methodist church expressed
themselves as highly gratified today
over the results and their' gracious
thanks are thereby tendered the public
generally for the liberal patronage
during the Initial hours of the show.
The 142nd Infantry band furnished
the musical features and it was up to
the usual high standard of excellence
that has made this musical combina-
tion famous all over the country.
Preliminary Announcement.
As a preliminary to the beginning
of the coronation exercises H. F.
Mayes appeared on the rostrum and

ous funny gyrations manipulations
and comic situations to the delight
of the audience and especially to little
boys and "girls. It should be mention
ed in this connection that -the part of
court jester was acted in a su-
perb whay. King McSil ar-
proachedi the throne slowly and when
directly !in front of it kneeled while
the Cardinal with due solemnity plnc-
ed the crjown on his head. (The King
then tqqfc his ?eat on Jiis throne the.
wand of power and authority being

side after some formalities of minor
nte the entire ceremony being most
beautiful and was carried out without
hitch or hindrance of any kind what-
ever. There were a number of other
characters filling their respective pla-
ces in the program but as it was im-
possible to get all their Tiames none
are ufed in tills story except the
crown bearer who was C. Q. Smith

satisfactory way. In fact the entire
program was one in the carrying out
of which great credit Is due every per-
son who was in any way connected
with it.

ferent stages of the ceremony by Mr.
