Baked apple sauce Is a very different dish from the ordinary stewed fruit The Boston Cooking School Magazine gives a good recipe for the former. Pare and core the apples, cut in quarters, and put them in a deep crock with a cupful of sugar and half a cupful of water to two quarts of fruit. This is less sugar than stewed apple sauce requires. but the long cooking develops the natural sweetness of the fruit. Cover the crock closely and cook for an hour and a half. or until the apples are a deep red color. If they cook too fast. they will be mushy, but cooked slowly each piece will be left while in 6 delicious cidery syrup. Let the apples cool in the crock. Serve them with cream and hot biscuit or cake for desert. For the filling of pies this sauce Is considered very nne.

He looks down the line with a critical eye
And sizes 1t up in his mind
And says the parade Is mile or two shy

Made lamps of the moderns a toy
Compared with the others. he'd beg leave

Oh, yes, the professions they had in those

Were really n soul stirring sight
Just think of the miles upon miles OF dis

The struggling. half hearted parades that
