MAKING CANDY AT HOME.
1t Is a Delightful Amusement for a Few
Hours Before Bedtime.

1t Is a Delightful Amusement for a @
Hours Before Bedtime.
Try a candy party and see If you do
not enjoy yourself more than you had
ever done before at such an affair. Why?
Because at your novel candy party you
are going to make some very nice candy
and conduct the party on regularly or
ganized principles that will insure its
success.
The materials required for the candy
party are ten pounds of confectioner's
sugar-obtainable at any ~grocer's-fve
strictly fresh eggs, a cake of chocolate,
half q pound Of dates, a small quantity
Of desiccated cocoanut, some vanilla
favoring and a few drops Of peppermint
or wintergreen.
You have now on hand the ingredients
for fifteen or more pounds of candy
much more than you care to make, no
doubt-so you may, If you please, get
only half the quantity of sugar. But it
is more satisfactory to work with the
larger quantity.
Let the mistress of ceremonies break
the iveeggs intoa big earthen bowl, and
then, without beating the eggs, add to
them an equal quantity Of water. Now
begin to stir in the sugar. It should be
added a cupfu1 at a time until the candy
mixture is SO stiff that the arm of the
stirrer refuses to perform its task.
This is the critical part of French can
dy making. It should be SO stiff that it
will stand alone, Hike brocaded velvet.
Now add a little vanilla favoring to
the compound, and let the amount Of
vanilla be determined upon by the cou-
pie you have designated at the beginning
of the evening to act as casters"
All hands now fall at work upon the
mixture in the bowl. 1t must be quickly
and deftly nodded into chocolate drops,
each one Of which is quickly stirred in
the melted chocolate by the couple pre-
siding W the chocolate pan.
When enough chocolate drops have
been made and set away upon glazed
paper to cool a cupful of the mixture is
taken out and mixed with the desiccated
c~ocoanut, and then rolled into cakes by

THE TOWN A Il AT ECONOMY.
They consist chiefly Of 5000 acres of fine
land in the very highest state of cultiva-
ton, with a vast amount of fine stock,
storehouses and workshops n the singu-
larly beautiful village of Economy, which
stands on a bluff overlooking the Ohio and
eighteen miles from Pittsburg. 1t is a fact
of some Importance in this connection that
John Duss, who is chosen to succeed Father
Heinrich, is almost the youngest member in
age, and has been a full member but two
years, though his parents died in the com
mune, and he has served it as clerk, teacher
and business agent ever since he was old
enough. If he o~utlives the othars, will he
own all the property? A minority of the
society has protested against his appoint
ment.
The Economics are often COMPOUNDED
with the Shakers in the public mind, both
sects being celibates, and in Indiana they
were commonly called Rappites, from their
founder, George Rapp. He was born in
Wurtemberg in ITO and reared a Lutheran,
but at the age when the mightiest of in
stincts has its usual struggle with the moral
sense and religious impulses he faneied
thas he received a divine call to restore
primitive Christianity, and communism of
goods was the method
In 1905 his little commune removed to
Pennsylvania and located in Butler county,
and there celibacy and total abstentioD
from all sex relations was proclaimed as a
doctrine. In 1915 they removed to Indiana,
bought q, 700 acres in the Wabash valley
and built the beautiful town of New Har-
mony, Posey county, which has since be-
come noted by contributing SO many emf
nent men to the state and nation. In 1924
they sold their possessions there to the
Robert Owen socialist commune and re-
moved to their present place.
George Rapp had SO completely concen-
trated all power in his own hands (the pa
pers organizing the commune were drawn
with remarkable legal ability and the sys-
tenn had become so rigid that there was a
revolt, and one Count Leo led off some 200
of the original members. Rapp voluntarily
allowed them sos, coo. which was thought
to be their proportion at that time-lo52.
The dissidents soon separated and became
worlds people" Through all the subse-
quent sixty-two years there has been a
continuous decline, and in 1870 Economy
had but 225 inhabitants, including EN-,
ployees and such orphan children as had
been taken in charge.
It Is economically an almost perfect
town. The streets are broad and solidly
paved, all the sanitary arrangements are
first class, perfect cleanliness prevails, and
there is not a healthier town in the world.
There is one store, and each member draws
therefrom whatever he needs. There is a
hotel for visitors who wish to pay, but
those who do not are equally welcome. The
form of worship is that of the Lutheran
church, with some additions. The dead are
buried in rows without tombstone or other
distinction. The grave of Rapp. who died
in 1S47, is simply a number in its turn; that
of Father Heinrich is now but a number, and
soon the last of the original Harmonists
will have his number in the same plain row.

A MODEL DINNER.
How 1t Should Be Served to Guests
In Your Own Home.

A writer In the Brooklyn Standard, in
giving directions for serving o model
dinner, describes one which she recently
attended. It was a dinner Of eight-fye
gentlemen and three ladies, including
the host and hostess. The hostess sat in
the center of an oblong table with her
husband opposite, while a lady was
placed at either end, so that no man, ex-
eept the host, was without a lady by his
side. The table, with its shining linen
and cutlery and silver, and smilax and
carnations massed about a low bowl OF
pink roses in the center, was a delight to
the eyes.
AS the dinner was given at home, in a
private residence, the hostess had the
good sense to omit oysters and begin
with soup. Raw oysters and CLAIMS are
suitable only in hotels or restaurants or
clubs. So the first thing on the list was
a soup, not a puree, which is too heavy
to open a long dinner, but a bright, keen,
biting pottage Of green turtle. With this
wa served d swallow of sherry (Oloroso)
straight from a sunny corner of Spain.
A peck at celery or olives or sailed
almonds, and then came an appetizing
dish of hot lobster, instead of the always
more or less tiresome course of fish. This
was after the hostess own recipe, being
small pieces Of lobster treated with milk
and seasoned with butter, salt and plenty
of red pepper. 1t was cooked in a chat
ing dish, placed before the hostess, who
mingled her agreeable labors with many
a bonmot.
With the lobster was served a white
wine from the region of a little river
tributary to the Rhine. 1t was a wine
that left a good taste in the mouth.
