WHY SHE Is SINGLE.

Nine reasons for Spinsterhood were
given to the Catholic Woman's Nation
al league at Chicago in an argument
last week. Miss Catherine Goggin,
president of the Grade Teachers Fed
GRAFTON, read a paper on why 1 Am
Single" Her reasons We're:
Because he might not be an orphan.
Because he might like tides.
Because he might be fond of using
pet names.
Because he might part his hair in the
middle of his head.
Because he might demand an item

lures.
Because dinner would have to be TAX
en- with the same person each day.
Because marriage would necessitate
daily letter writing when either he or
she might be away.
Because all the good men seem to be
married already.
Because he has not proposed.
Miss Goggin said she lived a "bird-
like" life and was tolerably satisfied
with it.
The husbands of my numerous
friends are without exception all that
even an unreasonable woman could de-
sire, she said, but when compared
with my bachelor acquaintance they

added graciousness of heart which per-

On the subject of pet names she said
she had heard some of her friends hus-
bands call them "Duckie," and this
would be unbearable to her. Some hus-
bands objected to their wives belonging
to clubs. She belonged to five and
would not want to give them up.
"Of course" she said, the chief
reason for my persisting in a celibate
state is that 1 never had a proposal. 1

FOR SUMMER EVENINGS.

In many homes, both in city and
country, it is the custom when the
settled warm weather arrives to give
up the late hot dinner. The meal in
the middle of the day is made little
more substantial and the evening meal
is kind of high tea" There are
several advantages in this plan. 1t
does away with the necessity for keep
ing hot fire going all through the
summer afternoon. 1t enables the cook
to have little rest after her mornings
work, and it gives the members OF, the
family change in their mode of life
that can hardly fail to be of benefit.
Everything need not be cold at the
third meal. In those houses where gas
is used as fuel it is an easy matter to
boil kettle for hot tea or coffee, or to
warm the soup that may have been
prepared earlier in the day. Lacking
gas, an oil stove or an alcohol lamp
Will do this. 1t is also possible to warm
a single vegetable such as peas, beans
or spinach. But in very hot weather,
after long, torrid day, any warm food
is often distasteful. The palate longs
for iced tea or coffee, for cool salads.
for crisp radishes, for appetizing cold
meats, and the painstaking housewife
should exert every power to supply
these dainties, which are really not ex-
penSiVe.

HEARTS THAT SHINE.
(Bv Laura jean Libbey.)

No matter if the face be plain almost
to LONELINESS, if a fond, true heart ac-
companies it, it has a beauty in its
kindly tenderness of expression that a
bright eye, a pink cheek and a dimpling
smile can never equal.
The wise maid had rather choose for
a life companion the plain little woman
with fond heart, than the beautiful
girl, the very acme of perfection, who
owes all her eXquisiteness to some IA
nous modiSte.
The lustre of a fond heart does not
dim with time, nor viii it beat less
fondly, no matter how great the sor-
rows that agitate it. Like the most
precious of gems, it is usually found in;
the very plainest settings.
light, tickle heart more often than
not accompanies beautiful features.
God adjusts matters in His own wise
way when He gives to the plain little
woman the fond heart, knowing that it
will be worth more to her as the years
advance. For the fond heart draws love
toward it with a magnetism which can
not be resisted. And what man would
resist it if he could?
A sweet disposition always accOmpa-
MES the fond heart. We look for it there
and are never disappointed.
No mans honor was ever furnished
by the plain little wife, whose great
charm lay in the fondness of her af-
lection for her husband, whose fond
heart only beat for the mate God had
given her.
If men priced this attribute and look
ed for it in the wives they choose, in
preference to beauty, vivacity or any
other fascination, there would be few
er broken hearts and fewer wrecked
homes.

man never despair. She is a thousand

LITTLE HINTS FOR
HOME
A sEAsONABLE JELLY.

An exceedingly nice fruit jelly is
made with one pint of pitted black
cherries, one quart of strawberries and
one-fourth of pound of pecan nut
meats. Soak one package of gelatine in
half a pint of cold water; let it stand
an hour and then pour over it one quart
of boiling water and add sugar to make
it quite sweet Turn into a plain
mould enough of the liquid jelly to just
cover the bottom. Arrange on this
row of cherries around the edge, then
a circle of nut meats, and finish with
the berries Stand the mould in a pan
of ice water, and when the fruit be-
comes set cover it with the liquid jelly
and again wait for it to harden before
using another layer of fruit, this time
putting the nut meats around the out
side Repeat until the materials are
used. When the jelly becomes hard
turn upon a glass dish and serve with
whipped cream.
CHERRY SWEETMEATS-
The season of the luscious cherry, al
most vanishes before one fully realizes
that it is here-it is so short. The fol-
lowing recipes may be a welcome re-
hinder to many of lisa rival this year.
The cherries are often served at
luncheon treated thus: Hold the cher
ries by their stems and dip them into
the white of an egg and then into pow
dered sugar. Pile them upon a flat
glass dish and ornament the edges of
the dish with cherry leaves.
A celebrated New England house
wife's way og making cherry pudding
is thus: Line a dish with thin slices
of buttered toast. Fill the dish with
part pitted cherries, putting them close
ly together in layers and sprinkling
each layer with sugar. Bake half an
hour and let it become perfectly cold
before serving it with rich cream. This
is a fine fruit dessert.
Spiced cherries make a fine relish to
serve with meats To four pounds of
fruit add two pounds of granulated
sugar and one pint of vinegar. Tie a
few spices ir a muslin bag and put
with the fruit. Let the fruit simmer
uncovered until the juice is a semi
jelly when cold.
A WARM WEATHER DISH.
Gelatine is an admirable warm wealth
er dish It is generally made of veal,
but lean lamb may be used. A thin
veal steak o. q boned breast of lamb
may serve Gs the foundation. This
should be laid fiat, buttered well and
spread thickly with minced boiled ham
or tongue, to which has been added
half dozen mushrooms and dozen
blanched almonds chopped fine, and all
seasoned with pepper and little onion
juice. Roll up the steak. the minced
meat inside, sew up in cheesecloth, put
over the fire in cold water or weak
soup stock, with sliced onion, carrot
and a bunch of soup herbs. Cook slow
ly three hours, let the meat get cold in
the liquor and then take out the roll
and put it under heavy weight. Slice
it across the end of the roll.
