Terhune Herrick. An inverted box serves the pur-
pose, the sides being covered with ferns and vines
and the top painted in inch-wide spaces to repre-
sent planks. On the planks may be inscribed the
sentiments Of either party of both, according to
the preferences of the hostess the makeup OF
the company In the centre Of the platform should
be a stand Of American flags and of cheap busts
of the preferred candidate, or If both can be Sc
cured they viii be a suitable and attractive add

genuine ballot, photographs of the candidates and
ether appropriate pictures. For the edibles there
may be a clear soup with letter noodles TO repre-
sent stump speeches. with bread sticks for polls
(poles). and bread boxes Drowned in the oven and
filled with creamed mushrooms to suggest stuffed
ballot boxes. For the salad tomatoes filed with
chopped celery and mayonnatse are advised. and
in each tomato broom stTaWs may be ranged TO

not especially rich in ingredients. but It is deli

apples are plentiful. Make tender layer cake "a
sponge cake or any simple recipe will do) and use
this filling: Whip up the white of egg until
light. but not stiff; then CRATE In. alternately a
cup of granulated sugar and a small tart apple
which has been peeled. AS the sugar and apple
are added fold them in slowly with the whip. and
continue beating the whole in long, strokes
for half an hour, counting from the time the egg
was first whipped. The filling should then be stif
II II is properly prepared at the end of the half
hour there should be a pint of the mixture,
light, feathery mass that will stand alone. This
whipping of the white after the apple and sugar
are added is rather delicate process, in which a
careless cook Will fail.
Spread each layer of cake with this filing. and
then place them together. If the layers Of
sponge cake do not frost the top layer. but sprin
kle II with powdered sugar. This filling may be
havored with either lemon or vanilla. II will keep
several days.
Another good fruit layer cake is banana cake

would for the apple filing Spread between layers
OF cake and decorate with slices Of banana.
The thin slices of a banana are sometimes stirred
into stiffened whipped cream and make a delicious
filling.
pineapple layer cake is prepared in several
ways. A good filing and icing for this cake is the
following: Boil together for six minutes cup OF

NOV. Is ENDS SPRINKLING
MAY RESUME IN SPRING.
But Commissioner Oakley Says He
is Open to argument.

The sprinkling carts which have been engaged
principally in making asphalt streets of Man
haitian so dangerous to horses automobiles and
pedestrians that a storm of protest has been
aroused. will go off the streets November 10.
That announcement was made to Tribune re-
porter yesterday by John T. Oakley, Commits
sioner OF the Department of Water Supply, Gas
and Electricity, who has control of street
sprinkling.
This does not mean that the various organiza-
lions and individuals opposed to street sprnkling
have won their fight for the suppression OF the
carts. The permit which Hilderbrant & Byers
secured from the city expires on that date. and
a new one will not be granted By Commissioner
Oakley until next spring. He gives the short
term which the present permit has yet to run as
