Profanity in Conversation.
APPLY CHRISTIANITY TO THE BUSINESS OF
 T

Suppose some seemingly sanctifet person should go around the streets ut
 tering audible prayers in the hearing of other people and mixing them uI with his conversation. says the Doug las CKan.D Tribune. People would call him crazy and would look for an ex. cuse for sending him to an asylum Inc general opinion would be that he was dafy. And yet there are fellows by the dozen who in public and private mix senseless oa;hs and causeless pro. fanity with their conversation. Why should the man whose seeming deyo. tion 10 Divinity exceeds good sense and propriety be graded as a lunat:c while the numerous fellow who is given to causeless cussing be regarded as all right, only little rough in. his talk?

4 Fudge, Sale.


 The Lend a Hand" circle decided that lucrative way to add to theil funds for charity work during the win ter would be fudge sale. so they sent cut cards to their friends an. nouncing that fudge" could be pur. chased on such and such date. giving the house number.
 These cards were ornamented with pen and ink sketches of a girl stir. ring fudge and were really very clever. But the making of the popu. lar confection was the best part; the favored men of the club were asked; chafing dishes were brought into serv- ice, and by ten p. m. there was a fine array of the toothsome dainty. Here is the recipe used; if is supposed to be infallible if directions are minutely followed:
 Plain fudge, which is the foundation of all the other varieties, is made by taking two cups of granulated sugar, half cup Of milk, a piece of butter size of walnut, chocolate to suit the taste, two teaspoonfuls of vanilla. Put the milk, chocolate, butter and sugar in granite saucepan, cook briskly until the mixture balls iD ice cold water. Stir while cooking, add the vanilla when taken from the fire, beat hard until thick, turn onto a buttered pan, mark into squares with knife which has been dipped in cold water.
 Nut fudge is made by stirring in any nut meat preferred when it is ready to be taken from the fire. Cocoanut may be used, also candied fruits, chopped rather fine.
 Maple fudge is made by using light brown sugar, instead of granulated, and leaving out the chocolate.
 Each masculine helper wore a white apron, and assisted or hindered to the best of his ability. All voted the party a great success and the sale which took place the next day net:sd goodly sum. The candy was put up in pound and half pound boxes, the layers separated by oiled paper.
