more with less bodily exertion than

must not be forgotten that their inhos--
pitabls climate reacts in kindlier
spirit upon all sorts Of provisions from
November to March. A friend who
had lived both North and South says
that it is far easier to provide for a
family when the caves do not drip for
three months soma times. Fresh meat
keeps perfectly for many weeks and she
stated that it was customary in her old
home to have "pie day" early in De-
cember, and that by evening there
would generally be a stack Of fifty
mince pies in the " buttery." which
frozen stiff were as good in six weeks
as when they were baked. Cake and
