month ago, when the call was first issued, the
Democrats were hopeful. The, Republican
primaries were then being held, and. as Petit

he could not carry, the Democrats confidently
looked for split and two candidates. Had
this been the case, they would have stood a
slight show of success. But when the Grand

assume that fully two thirds are Repub-

Democrats are more numerous.
In the early days the Democrats elected a
delegate twice, though in each case the contest
was triple one. In 1870 Walter A. Burleigh,

These acts are regarded by the people as ille-

Archbishop TAFT.

The recent illness of the archbishop of Can
terbury leads the London Globe to speak rs
follows concerning him: "All churchmen
must feel that the Church Of England could ill
afford to spare the distinguished man who has
filed the sec Of Canterbury with so much
credit for the last fourteen years These years
have comprised one of the most difficult crises
of the church's history. and the crisis is yet
by no means safely passed. But if it is in a
fair way of being surmounted, the fact is
due in no email degree to the prac-
teal wisdom and the Iarge-hearted charity OF
| the archbishop. A statesman as we'll as an &C.
clesiastic, he has known how to take account
Of tho different forces at work in the church,
and to deal with them not from the point OF
view Of an impractical ideal, but as man OF
the world, in the true and best sense OF TIE
| term. A stanch protestant in his own copvlc-
| tons, which he has never concealed, DR.. TAFT
has steadily refused to be partisan ruler, and
has endeavored, not without conspicuous sue
cess, to unite all earnest churchmen IN the

clesastical courts and the bill to effect the re-

Either of the following ways is recommended
as being excellent: Boil rIps grapes till they
are soft, then mash them through colander
leaving the seeds only in it. To one pound Of
grapes use three-quarters of pound of sugar
almost like jelly. Then, just before TAX
ing from the fire, add cinnamon and cloves
TO suit your taste. No. 2. Take ripe grapes;
remove imperfect and broken ones
Line an earthen jar with grape
leaves; then fill with grapes To two quarts
of vinegar allow one pint of white sugar, half
an ounce of ground cinnamon and a quarter
of an ounce of gloves. Let the vinegar and
spices boil five minutes; thea add the sugar.
Let it come to boil, and then, when cold,
pour over the grapes. If poure on while hot
it shrivels'then, even 1t doe, not break the
skin and spoil the appearance of the pickles.
Grapes picked in this way are nice put with

t4the Congregational churches of the
United States last year actually fell off in men,

was a gain of nineteen churches but de-
crease of 1925 members" 1t denies that
there is any such decline. and concludes as

Pickles.

To pickle peac hes take seven pounds of
sugar to one quart of vinegar; boil the peaches
in this until broom splint will easily pierce
the skin; stick few cloves in each peacn be-
fore putting it in the vinegar and put hand
fuI of stick cinnamon into the vinegar. If you
have only ground cinnamon in the house put
some-say three tablespoonfuls-in q little
muslin bag and let it boil in with the peaches
If the amount of sugar here given seems
large, you need not weigh it. but shut
your eyes and keep putting it in until
the right taste is impaired. Some cooks
peel the peaches and do not boil them, but pour
hot vinegar over them for several mornings,
but confess that like them best ''coth and
all, as little girl said, simply taking care to
wipe them off with clean towel first. Pears
may be put up after this recipe; they, how
ever. ought to be peeled, as the skin is tough
and has no association of down or red cheek
with it,. Plums of almost any variety are de-
licious picklsd in this way: To twelve pounds
Of fruit allow six pounds of sugar, one quart
of vinegar, spice to suit Your taste; heat the
vinegar, sugar and spice, pour while hot over
the fruit: do this for two mornings. Black
berries are very nice also prepared in the same
way
French Pickles-though why so called 1
| know not-are made by sllcing one peck 0 f
/ gre,n tomatoes and nine large onions; throw
| over them one teacnpful of salt, cover them
with cold water, an 1>t them s I'd all night;
IN the morning drain til IN, and boil in weak
vinegar untl TIE tomatoes are tender, not soft.
While they are boiling take four quarts of good
vinegar, two pounds of brown sugar, two
ounces of white mustard seed, two table
spoonfuls each of ground allspice cloves,
cinnamon, and ginger, half a teaspoon
| full of cayenne pepper; pour this over
the tomatoes, and let all boil together for
half an hour. Put in jars closely covered, and
lslf YOU wish to keep some for use in july and
August, seal them in cans 1t is surprising
how in this way they retain the peculiar fresh
| taste. Catsup made of green tomatoes makes
good relish also; for tais take one peck of
/ tomatoes, six small red peppers, or one tea
spoonful of cayenne pepper, four tablespoon
fuls each Of salt and black pepper, one table,
spoonful each of ground mustard, cloves and
allspice. two quarts of vinegar; cook the to-
matoes and pepper in the vinegar until they
are soft, then strain, add all the spices, and
boil slowly for at least four hours. II you
prefer to sweeten the catsup, add cup of
| sugar.
