Apple Jelly.
Country Gentleman.

Country Gentleman.
If you own a barrel of apples and they
begin TO spot slightly. as even the best
apples will do during the winter. it is econ
omy to pick them over frequently and use
all the speckled apples for jelly. Pick out
with a sharp knife every morsel of decay.
then wash the apples well in cold water,
rubbing them with cloth, for winter
stored apples have faculty of accumulate
ing dirt. Cut the fruit into thin slices,
using both cores and skins To each quart
OF apples add one pint of cold water and
set in kettle over the fire in a large pre-
serving kettle. II the apples are rather
favorless. add one lemon. finely sliced, TO
prevent the fruit from burning. When ii
is reduced 10 a mush pour into a jelly bag
of crash or flannel, which has been wrung
from hot water Hang it to drain for TWEEN
ty-four hours in as warm a place as pos
sible There is a large amount of gelatin
substance in apples When gelatine is
chilled OF course ii soidifies: so IL a jelly
bag cools before the juice has run out quite
an amount of IL is lost. An excellent win
ter method for jelly making is 10 keep the
bag suspended as near as possible TO a hot
register. Allow for each pint of juice one
pint OF sugar. Set the juice 20 boil for
twenty minutes and put the sugar 10 heat
in a moderate oven. After the boiling
down process is done, pour I'm the heated
sugar. when the bubbling will scarcely be
interrupted Pour IL into a heated tumbler
after five minutes cooking. Leave IL to
cool, then cover with paraffine. One Sc

And here, dear man, let me give Won a

kind, or even wife that is trying her best

her know that you appreciate 1t. Don't
wait until she has folded her tired hands

waken her, and then order for her beau

Bring her home 25-cent bunch of carna-
tons occasionally as free-will Offering;
take her out to table d hote dinner once

words what you really believe that she
is the one woman in all the world for you;
kiss her without solicitation as you used

gree a hypochondriac. and when first
saw her 1 knew that the case was hope
less.
1t was case so full of complications
that nothing i knew about could save
her. L paid a few visits and then 1 told
the family that she had at the most but
few weeks to live. The husband. man
in moderate circumstances, called his
brothers and his wife's two sisters in to
consult as to what was best TO be done.
He realized that he couldn't bring up the
cided to parcel them out among the rela-
tons. When 1 called next day, TO my
establishment / found my patient up and
dressed. She looked like death, but when
she spoke to me her voice was stronger
than | had ever heard Ii.

don't you know you oughtnt to tax your
strength this way? You aren't strong
enough to be out of bed
Doctor, said she, I'm strong enough to
be out of bed, and strong enough to stay
out. Perhaps you know that the family
idea l heard what they said, but 1 crawled
out of bed and along the hall to the library

eases that ought to kill her any time, but

ply willed TO live, and she is living, and

beyond the aid of medicine surgery, but

love is stronger than science. She may
drop dead any day. but If she does she'll

 Although Alaska has more population than any of these it is also a country several times as large as any of them. The territorialists say 1t makes no diff ference and the ''antis' says it does. Hence the battle.
 And in the meanwhile, the proposed legislation that rushed on with the tide that brought out the delegate bill and the territorial bill in the last Congress takes a pretty long stride toward government helo in the immediate and rapid devel- opment of the country; as some of the most important measures, such as the d, Seattle to Juneau, $35O.OO0 for lighthouses, etc, were passed.
 Most of the proposed legislation during this session of extraordinary attention to Alaska is in the following list:
 There were introduced: A bill provid- ing for settlers to obtain 320 acres of land; bill appropriating $150,0O0 for the promotion of salmon culture; bill for the relief of Copper River Indians; bill pro- viding for creditable Alaska exhibit at the St. Louis Exposition bill for the maintenance of agricultural stations, car rying $15,0O0 appropriation; bill appropri- ating $500 salaries for two Alaska game wardens; appropriation of $1O.0O0 for com pletion of the &5000 court house in Ju- neau; bill for lighthouses, carrying $250, 900 appropriation; bill for surveying mis- sion stations. $5O,OO0; bill to construct q cable from northwest coast of Washing ton to Juneau, $5OO0OO: bill to have with drawn land for use of Copper River and other Indians; bill providing for expendi- ture of all licenses and fines collected for maintenance or public schools, and for incorporation of towns with powers of municipalities; provisions for saving stations; for private incorporation law: Tor amending coal laws; for formine Aiaska into a lighthouse district; and providing for the establishment of osh hatcheries.
