Bath Schooner Beats the Record.

The record for the voyage from Port
land to Louisburg, G. B., was lowered
from three days to 60 hours, on the last
trip of the big four master, the William
B. Palmer of Bath, 1906 gross tons, com
manded by Capt. Frank E. Dyer of Wal
than, Mass. The W. B. Palmer has been
under charter by the Dominion Coal Co.
since last spring, and has made several
quick passages. The record of three DAYS
for the outward trip to Louisburg, how
ever, had been held by the Sarah E. Pal
mer, also of the Palmer fleet. The Will
liam B. Palmer left Portland Tuesday
evening, July 2S, and dropped anchor in
Louisburg harbor Friday morning, in sixty
hours. She had only five and six knot
breeze the first "a hours. 1t freshened
gradually and during the night before her
arrival at Louisburg the log showed for
several hours in succession 10 1-2 knots.
and for about two hours IA knots.
The large four master Alicia B. Crosby
left Boston "a hours before the Palmer left
Portland, and reached Louisburg five
hours after her. The return trip of the
Palmer to Bangor, with 2, $50 tons Of coal,
was made with succession of Gains and

Apple Sauce that will Keep,

This is as great a convenience as pre-
serves, the preparation of apples for sauce
not being always convenient for the busy
housekeeper. Inferior apples may be used
in this way, and the windfalls of early au-
tumn, when one is fortunate enough to
own an orchard, will be found quite
available. They should be peeled, cored,
and freed from every blemish, then cut
up i'll quite small pieces. A large earthen
jar with cover should be ready to re-
ceive them. Into this put first liberal
sprinkling of sugar, with cannamon to
taste, then layer of apples, then more
sugar and cinnamon, and so on till the jar
is full. The sugar should be regulated
according to the tartness of the apples,
from quarter to a half pound for one
pound of apples being the rule. The jar
should be placed at the back of the range
and the fruit kept covered and gently sim
mering through the day. 1t should then
be set away to cool, and the apples taken
out only as they are reeded for sauce or
desserts Having no water mixed with
them, apples prepared in this way are
very palatable. [September Ladies' Home
