Homemade Candy.


Five pounds OF sugar will make
enough for small! evening company.
Buy xxx confectioner's sugar at a
Wholesale grocer's, and do not be de-
luded into taking powdered sugar, as it
is useless. One can make as many
varieties as she chooses. and a good way
is TO make an ''one-egg quantity" of
each kind, as follows: Take the white
from an egg and measure 1t. Pot with
1t an equal number OF spoonfuls OF
water. Stir In sugar until 1t can be
mixed with the hand. Do not get II

cream into balls with the fingers drop
into melted chocolate and roll around
with fork till the balls are thIckiy
coated. Take out with a fork-belter

slightly buttered light brown paper, not
near enough to touch each other.
Orange and lemon candy Crate the
rid OF one orange OF one lemon for The
quantity above mentioned. Mix this
thoroughly into the cream. Flavor

way 10 find out when the mass is sufi.

iaesr OF lemon then one OF chocolate,

made by mixing grated chocolate with
cream and fAvoring it with vanilla.
For almond oulongs cover almonds with
the cream. Fur almond squares chop
some almonds very fine and mix with
the cream then roll into strips and cut
in squares. Flavor these with either
almond or vanilla, or q mixture OF both.
For nut squares make the cream iLto

A Couple OF Dog stories.

Talkinn about dogs, l should tell YOU
that London is celebrated for curious
dogs. Here are a couple OF stories I
can vouch for. In s.. Martins lane
there sits every day an old blind man
who knits nets. Between his feet sits
a bright little Scotch terrier. II you
toss him a penny be catches 1t deftly in
his mouth and puts his nose in his own
ers hand. The blind man utters his
thanks and drops the money IN a bag
he wears a.ound his neck. In the even
ing he leads his master home, and
through some OF The most crowded
thnroughfares, too.
Nelson is the celebrated dog o. Seven
Dials. He is always pointed out to Wis
itors. He got his name from having lost
a foo: at some disturbance at Trafalgar
square. He always buys his own food
When any one gives Nelson penny
and he is hungry he goes to a butchers
or bakers shop, as the appetite dc
sates, and placing the coiu on the coun-
ter receives piece OF meat or a roll
III he has received more pennies thau
he ueeds for the day be buries the sur.
plus and sits on his treasure all night.

Trapping for Skunks.

The price OF q skunk skin is regulat-
ed by the quantity of black fur on it.
writes Scranton Pa. correspondent to
the New York Sun. The original buy
eI who is guided in the price he pays
for each class of pelts bv quotations oc-
casionally sent to him by fur dealers in
New York, can tell at o glance how
much he can afford to give for skin
that Is before him. II he is In doubt az
to whether skin contains less black
than white fur, he places bis hand over
the black portion. II the black part is
as large as his hand. he throws the skin
into heap, for which he is to pay the
highest price. Skins that have about
an equal amount of black and white fur
are Put Into another pile at q lower
price than the others. The lower priced
ones are those that contain more white
than blank fur.
Various ways OF trapping the nocter-
nal providers with q bumped back, peak
ed nose and bushy tail are adobted by
the rustic urcEins up there. The trap
h-ooh 10 u'Cu III buio Wdy. a lldt Stone
is placed on the ground or snow not far
from barn or other outbuildings.
TheE the end OF another and heavier
fiat stone is braced against the edge Of
the horizontal stone, the other end be-
ing propped up with stick. 80 that the
stones and the prop look almost like the
figure 4. To the prop q BAIT made gen.
orally OF chickens bead is fastened.
In order to get at the bait the skunk is
obliged to take mp position under the
slanting stone. AS soon as the skunk
begins to yank at the bait. one of the
props slips out Of place, the stone fsIls,
and the skunk is crushed.
Some OF the urchins set as many as
fifteen traps at night. OF course each
trap doesn't catch a skunk, but many of
the lads gather In q half dozen a piece
each morning when the weather is fav-
orsble. 1t isn't very agreeable to skin
the skunks, but the boys don't mind it
at all. They tack the skins on the side
OF the barn to dry, and, after they have
accumulated forty or forty.five, they
dump them into the sleigh and take
them to market.

Care OF Horses Feet.

Preserving ;he frog, that very IMPORT
ant cushion beneath the horses foot,
was the subject of remark by . CORES
pondent in a recent issue OF Raral Ne'o
Yorker. Following are statements
made:
IL, in seeking q horse, We take up the
foot and find the frog well preserved

soft-the probability is that the remain
der OF the foot will be in good order.
There may be an exception to this 10 the
case OF q used up horse having besn
turned out to pasture for q period long

new growth. IL the frog be fully pro
tecsed and we'll maintained the hoof
will be found but little Il at all con-

way.
But it is the smith. the horse shoer,
who ruins the frog that is very many
OF them do this. During the many

he has always made 1t a rule to be pres

permitted more than the slightest trim

the trimming of Of Insignificant parts.

hoof by the use OF tie rasp; but, for
tunately, the frog is proof sgaInst at
tacks by this instrument, and even tha
knife requires to be sharp, else the pc
culiar nature Of the frog will resist.
Fever In the feet is a prolific source
OF injury in the frog, and should be over

of dryness.
Cutting the frog away at the time of
shoeinR, then setting the foot upon
caulkins. In such manner ss 10 prevent
the frog from pressing upon the ground,
will, sooner or later, interfere with Its
development and usefulness. The most
important function OF the frog is to
lessen the shock to the foot In It's con-
tact with the ground. This being the
fact, it should be so maintained, and
the shoe be so constructed that at every
step the frog can come In for fair

This is why young and growing ami

there should not be such thing as

We must create home local market

made from skim milk is better for
