Pineapp es for Tea.

A pineapple cake IS an excellent
layer cake. Make a nice cup cake with
one cup of butter, two of sugar, four
eggs, a cup of sweet milk, three large
cups of -four and two teaspoonfuls of
cream tarter and one of soda. Beat
the butter and sugar to cream, add
the yolks of the eggs, then the milk, in
which the soda has been stirreI, and
finally the whites of the eggs, beaten
stiff. If the cake is made in this way
it will be fine in grain and rich as
pound cake, but If 1t Is carelessslv
stirred together 1t will bo a coarse,
poor cake. Bake it in seven layers for
pineapple cake. Chop a pineapple
hne and cook 1t with three-quarters of
its weight Of sugar; add to it while hot
quarter of a box of gelatine, which
has been soaked an hour in cold water
When cold, the pineapple mixture
should be thick enough not to run.
Spread it thickly over layers of the
cake, place them together, and ice the
top layer thickly with e white icing
favored with lemon. If you wish it
for q party you can decorate it with a
wreath of confectioners' icing, and set
a bright plume of the pineapple leaves
In the centre of the cake. If there
is more pinespple preparation than
can be used for the cake, let 1t form in
a bowl and heap it in shining pieces
around q white blsne-msnge for a des-
sert. II is . very delicious and pretty

HaymakIngIn Finland.

curious way OF making hay is very
generally adopted by the Fins. Poor
men who own no meadows have long
been accustomed TO cut what grass they
oan Ind IN the forest glades and other
waste lands Owing to the lack of
roads and farmstends the hay Was stuff
ed among the branches of neighb orln
trees to await the winter frosts and
snow, when It could easily be carried
Oh by sledges. After wet season some
farmers noticed that this was actually
better In quality than that which they
themselves had made from much better
grass The Wild crop, go to call 1t, had
dried much better in the tree branches,
exposed 10 free circulation of air, than
the rich heritage which had laid long
on the sodden ground. Hence II
occurred % them to make temporary
trees uPon which their own crops
might be dried
This experiment was attended by
such success that the plan has been
widely initiated, and bids fair entirely
10 suPPlant the oldfashioned methods
After the moving is done. a number OF
poles about ten feet In length, and pro-
vlded with long transverse pegs, are
set up At intervals. and the grass Is
loosely henped upon them. The result
- SAID To be excellent. Even IN vet
Weather only a small portion forming
the outside of the pile is discolored,
while the inner portions, exposed to
the AIR beneath and protected from the
rain above, are dried IN perfect condi-
ton Moving can be carried on in
spite Of wind and rain. and when once
the grass Is placed upon the drying
pole II may Oe left without fear of
serious damage until the weather
changes.

Pure Diamonds Are Rare.

About niue-tenths OF the diamonds

they have color III them. Ten per cent.
only are absolutely white. The differ
ence IN the color makes the difference
in the price of the stones. For instance,
a csnaTy-colored diamond is more val
liable than the white stones. Diamonds
Of this kind are called fancy stones.
When set together they make a beautI-
ful contrast. There is no special fashion
in diamonds. Much depends on IndI-
yidual taste. Necklaces are now worn

n ado up with small diamonds combined
WITH cOlored stones. Sapphires, opalS,
rubies and emeralds find ready and an
extensive market. A fine ruby, weigh
ing from two to three carats, is worth
more than a diamond. Fine emeralds
are always as high-priced as the dia-
mond.
