Get a Perspective ON Pain.

We are so constituted that what is
occurring at the moment interests us
often out of all proportion to its i'm
Portance. For example, we are thrown
off our balance by the merest trifies,
perhaps, which occur to-day, but which
in weeks time may have no signifi-
canoe whatever. Obstacles which seem
like mountains when we meet them.
dwindle away to mole hills when we
get away from them. Even what seems
tragedy at the moment, in the future
may be the most innocent comedy.
Most of us are so constituted that we
will make almost any sacrifice for
present peace. It would seem easier
to have an arm or leg amputated two
years hence than to lose finger to-
day. 1t is human nature to shrink
from pain, and we purchase release at
almost any cost. If we could only
train the mind to look at to-day's trou-
BILE and annoyance from the stand
point of the future, it would be much
easier to bear.-Washingt ton Times.

Cann1ns Strawberries.

Wlesbaden Process this two
lots of berries are required-one Of
all large, sound, dead ripe berries and
the other of perfectly sweet and
fresh, but not necessarily large Der,
ries. In looking them over put aside
the fine ones, but do not hull until
ready to use. eTo every pound Of the
smaller berries allow pound OF rsu-
gar and mix in layers in stone
crock. Cover and allow them to stand
for several hours or over night, until
they form their own juice. Drain of
the syrup and boil down to two
thirds of the original quantity. Have
well sterilized cans with fresh rub
bers in readiness; fill with the nice
whole berries which have been hulled
and set on a thick, wet, hot cloth in a
dripping pan on back of the range to
keep warm while being filed with the
scalding syrup. Pour the syrup over
them quickly and seal air tight. The
Germans frequently use half honey
in place of all sugar in this process.
In this case cover the berries with
the sugar, allowing only half pound
of sugar to each pound of fruit. Aft
er standing and draining add quar-
ter of a pound Of honey for each
pound of fruit and boil down to two-
thirds of the original quantity. In
using honey the syrup must be care
fully SKINNED before filling the jars.
