Paraffine Hints for the Housewife.

Many of the cares that once made
heavier the housewives burden are van
fishing before her increasing knowledge
of the wonderful possibilities Of refined
paraffine as a 1abor-Saver Paraffine is
one of the most useful of all wax pro-
ducts It's small cost is making it Won
derfully popular, and the up-to-date
housewife finds it almost indispensable.
She preserves her jellies and jams by
pouring q little melted paraffine over
the top of the contents of each glass.
The paraffine in cooling, forms a perfect
air-tight seal that prevents mould anu
assures cleanliness 1t saves the bother
of cutting papers and fitting lids, as no
other cover is necessary Another and
somewhat similar use for paraffine is
for sealing fruit jars after the lid has
been screwed on. AS every woman
knows, a defective rubber, careless
handling, or any cause for the admis-
sion of air results in a can of spoiled
fruit She can insure every can OF
her fruit by inverting the can after the
lid is screwed on, and dipping into a pan
of melted paraffine. A teaspoonful OF
melted paraffine stirred into the hot
starch improves the gloss and prevents
the sticking of tn e iron, while half
cupful of Clipped paraffine mixed with
the soap on wash-day is wonderful
saver of labor. The highest grade or
paraffine is manufactured by the Stand
ard Oil Co. for household use, ana rs
sold by most grocers. 1t is beautlful
translucent wax, tasteless and odoriesS:
It is put up in moulded cakes, OF about
one pound each, and neatly wrapped.
Full directions for use with each cake.

mass was very tiresome. A few farm
ers still make apple butter by this
method, but the most of us are salts
fed with a gallon or so made by an
easier way, and it is just as good
as the old-fashioned apple butter if
the cider is cooked down sufficiently
and the butter boiled long enough. 1t
should be cooked until the mass is
plastic as butter, and spreads like
butter on bread, and so the cider
will not separate when a spoonful is
placed in a saucer.
First quality apples, fully matured
are the kind that make the best ap-
pie butter and if sweet apples are used
no artificial sweetening is needed
With sour apples less sugar is need
ed when a rounding teaspoonful OF
soda is added to the pulp while cook
ing. Do not sweeten until nearly done.
Pears can be used instead of apples
if one wishes, and pear butter is excel
lent. If seasoning is desired try Gin
namOn.

Let the Boys Enjoy Nature.
(Hattie w. Parker.)

We practice what we are talking,
and think our boys are not any the
worse for the teaching. In the spring
and summer, when the days are beau
tiful. we think it no sin after attend
ing church and Sunday school, for the
bovs to take a stroll through the
woods. and wander on the creek and
river banks. To delve into natures
mysteries and beauties is religion in
our opinion. and Of more enjoyment
than many other pleasures combined
to some boys. We do not object TO
them examining birds nests and their
eggs if they do not disturb the eggs.
The boys who are old enough to
work have our sympathy, for when
the birds begin to sing and the trees
to put on their summer garb he must
get UP before the sun and work all
day and when night comes on he is so
tired and footsore that he can't en-
ioy the moon in all it's glory. 1t
would be pitiable indeed if he could
not enjoy natures beauties short
time on Sunday. We have seen them
coming from the woods with arms
full of wild flowers, green moss and
perhaps little squirrel. Ii one wants
to make religion and the Bible dis
tasteful, just compel the boy to study
the scriptures when he wants so much
to go to the woods, or lie on the
lawn and watch the clouds and trees
and think of what he is going to make
of himself You may compel him, but
there will be so much inward resent
ment that we think the resentment is
more sin than, to let him choose his
own entertainment.
Then when the boys become OF
certain age and are told that CONVEX
sation only will be allowed on Sun
day afternoon, we think that their
souls would be purer to let them jump
up, turn a handspring or cultivate
any innocent amusement. Of course,
we are speaking of the rural boy, the
one who is kept moving from blowing
time until the corn is gathered and
the wood for the winter is prepared.
One should do all in his power to
make boys happy, particularly the
rural boy.

The Live Stock Journal says:
Larger importations of draft and coach
stations are being bought by our i'm
porters than ever before. Farmers
should inspect importations and make
their selections. Buy at the barn,
pay the money down, and be amazed
at the price. Still, many will wait for
statesmen to bring them a stallion,
when members of a company will pay
an extra thousand dollars or more.
But the tide is changing and many are
buying direct to get their own selec-
ton and a big saving in price, both
of which should interest the farmers
of every community.

Apple Butter Hints.

Has any one an easier way of MAX
ing apple butter than mine? asks
Fannie M. Wood. I cook the apples
without pealing, removing only the
cores and imperfections. Then COOK
them until soft in a steam cooker.
After they have cooked soft I rub
them through colander or sieve, then
add the cider that has been previously
boiled down until thick and dark.
While l am ironing or doing some
other task that requires a fire the
mass gets the slow steady boiling
needed on the back of the stove in an
earthenware crock or kettle. In
granite Kettle it requires more atten-
ton to prevent scorching. But in a
common milk crock with a slow fire
very little attention in the way of
stirring and skimming is necessary.
In olden times when this appetizing
delicacy was made in large quantities
the cider and butter were boiled out OF
doors, where evaporation takes place
faster than anywhere else. The large
copper kettle (seldom seen nova
days. was used for boiling down the
cider and making the apple butter
1t was a big task to prepare the ap-
pies and the continual stirring of the
