Caramel shortcake is a pleasing
variation from the ordinary varieties
and is especially good at this season,
when fresh fruit suitable for filling
is not in market Make a caramel by
dissolving first a teacupful of brown
sugar with a spoonful Of water, then
add a ~teaspoonful Of butter and a few
drops of brown coloring~ Stir till it
boils and is quite clear: then allow to
cool. Make a simple layer of cake,
using rather more butter than usual.
and spread between the layers a cho-
colate cream or ONE fruit preserves,
then pour the t~hickening caramel e
emily all over the top, doing this more
than once, giving it time to set in be-
tween. When cold, ornament with
candieG fruits. If chocolate is chosen
for the filling add a little grated cho-
eolate to the caramel before it boils.

TO WASH BLANKETS.

Now. if one lives in the country.
where d garden or field or good drying
ground is close by an excellently APP
pointed laundry, a big annual orgie OF
blanket washing may be advantageous.
though II haze me doots' about that.
To the ordinary housewife, who has
neither the space nor the appliances
nor the necessary number of servants,
it is a far wiser plan to send one
blanket to the wash every week, or
two if the washing is a light one, and
it is always necessary only to wash
one at a time, otherwise blankets
shrink.
They cannot be treated en- masse as
linen or cotton things are, but must be
done speedily and thoroughly, and
dried on a fine hot day. out Of doors,
but not in the hot sun.

Young Woman's Long-Wished For De

Two young women were discussing
their late vacations;.at a wellknOwn
club for business women down town,
says the New York Press. One OF
them said enthusiastically:
"Of course. you found the scenery
inspiring, but what part of your trip
did you really enjoy the most?"
The other woman gave vent to a
ripping laugh and replied: :.
well, if you want to know the
truth, it was my meals in the restaur-
ants attached to the various stations
where I made close connections"
The first speaker, a confirmed trav-
eler, gasped incredulously, but the
second continued her explanation:

I liked and I took a childish satisfac.

The Attorney Breed. N
"The Attorneys and Jerseys are %
closely related and SO much alike in
appearance that the description given
for Jerseys will apply to them. They
can be classed as the same breed,
but bearing the lame Of their island
home. The main difference is that
the Attorneys r smaller and more
delicate, and for this reason are not
so much in favor"
The above passage was printed in a
book which I Judge is in the hands
of many farmers throughout the coun-
try.
When Channel island cattle were
first imported to the United States,
and for a long time thereafter, both
Jersey and Guernsey, and especially
the former, were called by many peo-
pie Attorney cattle. The Island of
Attorney is one of the Channel group,
and although the third in size is too
small to export any cattle. It prob
ably has no cattle except a few for
family use, and so far as records
show none were ever exported from
there. The name may have originated
from the fact that Attorney, having
a good harbor ana being nearer Eng
land, all the vessels carrying cattle
or produce from Guernsey and Jersey
formerly cleared from the Attorney
port before leaving the islands for
England. This may have given the
impression to early English importers
that they were Attorney cattle, and
the name so came to this country,
The fact is that there is no such
thing as an Attorney breed Of cattle.

The Glory Of California Scenery.

AS long as there remains the love
Of beauty IN the human soul, so long
will the glory of California scenery,
and that Of the whole Pacific Coast,
prove q source of Inspiration to the
poetic mind. Descriptive verse has
been from the beginning a marked
feature of the literature Of this re"
gion. In fact, the term Landscape
poets" may be properly applied to this
bevy Of song birds which seemed to
the late Maurice Thompson to have
taken complete possession Of the
entire Western seaboard." Suffice to
say, that If a volume of verse were
written by a Californian which re-
flected nothing Of the states scenic
beauty or it's warmth of color, it
would not only come as a surprise to
most reviewers, but the loyalty of the
poet might be seriously questioned.
While all this display of local color
may eem too apparent an effort on
the part of California to place upon
their work the stamp of a definite 10:
ca1ity, and may be considered by
some cheap form of art, it is this
worry constituencies to the beauty and
grandeur with which Nature has cloth

been boiled until it is just tender, and
very carefully drained on a cloth. Place
