Grab Apple Cheese.

Crab apple cheese Is a useful winter
dessert dish. Wipe the apples In a
clean dry cloth and examine each to
see that IT Is perfect. Those that are
damaged may be cut with a silver fruit
knife, and only the sound part used.
Set these carefully-prepared apples In
tlghtly-cOVered earthenware Jar, and
cook in the oven until the fruit is
tender enough to squeeze through
coarse cheese-clOth. Next weigh out
three-Quarters of a pound Of sugar to
every pound of pulp, set in a. preserV-
ing pan, and boil for half an hour,
skimming thoroughly. Place the cheese
In fancy molds and cover with paper.
II the cheese Is required very clear, tie
straining cloth over large jug, lay
the fruit on 1t, letting it drain, but
do not squeeze. 1t is always advis-
able to make both jelly and preserves
on the same day, for then the skins and
cores OF the fruit can be used up. 1t
is q pity to waste what Is not required
for Jelly, for the skins and cores Of
the fruit contain more gelatinOus sub
stance than any other part.

A Dainty Picnic Luncheon.

"a good quantity of fruit, box OF
Well-made sandwiches, some eggs and
coffee, with a few lady-fingers, will
provide a comfortable luncheon and
dinner" writes Mrs. S. T. ROrer, who
suggests number Of picnic lunCheOns
in the Ladies' Home Journal. "An al
cOhol stove, costing but rs cents, with
two ounces of alcohol, will furnish
boiling water for the coffee, and will
cook dish of scrambled eggs or make
a Welsh rarebit. For cooking the lat
ter an ordinary tin pie-dish will an
swer. The coffee may be finely ground
and put into cheese-cloth bag In the
coffee-pOt, all ready for the boiling
water. Sandwiches are the most ap-
prOpriate form Of food for picnics, es-
pecially the dainty, appetizing sand
wiches made of homemade white or
whole wheat bread, filled with mix
ture Of chopped, meat, daintily sea-
sOned.
"An agreeable acquisition to picnic
luncheon or supper is a salad made
either of some green vegetable or to-
mat0. Half a pint of mayOnnaise dress
ing may be carried In jar, and the
salad arranged on wooden plates. Veg
etables and fruits serve as food and
drink. Sardlnes, shrimps or salmon
may be minced, rubbed to a paste with
a little lemon juice, and used as fill
ing for the sandwiches. Lemons for
lemonade may be squeezed at home, the
juice mixed with a proper proportion
Of sugar, four tablespOonfuls to each
good-sized lemon, poured into bottle
and diluted at the picnic grounds.
Condensed milk Is easy to carry, and
will answer the purpose Of either milk
or cream"
