Apple Preserves.

Now that apples are in season, a
hint about buying and preserving the
same may be useful to some of our
readers. When buying apples select
them by their weight, the heaviest be-
ing the best. Large apples are better
than small, and those which yield tC
the pressure of the thumb with a
slight cracking noise. To make apple
jelly, wash the apples well and cut in
pieces: boil them with water and part
of a lemon in an uncovered saucepan
When the juice is sticky strair
through sieve and add some thick
sIrup, for which the sugar used should
be of the same weight as the apples:
boil and skim it. and when it is suf-
ficiently thick to fall in flakes from
the spoon put into the jelly glasses
and tie down.

Salmon CroQuettes.

Make thick white sauce from one
cup of milk. five level tablespoons of
-four. and two level tablespoons of but
ter. When it is thick add the yolks of
two eggs, and when these are cooked
through add the salmon. To prepare
the fish free can of salmon from
skin and bones, add level teaspoon
of salt, tablespoon Of finely chopped
parsley, few gratings of nutmeg,
and pinch of pepper. Now hold
half an onion over the fish and scrape
off dozen drops of juice. After the
fish and sauce are mixed spread on a
plate and set away to cool. Form
into balls or cones. dip into beaten
egg, then in sifted fine bread crumbs,
and fry in deep fat. Garnish with
lemon points and parsley.

BETTER THAN TABLE LEAVES.
Separate Board Top Provides Needed
Additional Space.

People VINO give large dinners often
find the addition of leaves INSULT
cient to accommodate the guests. Also
a round or square table elongated is
not as pretty or as easy to set. There
fore it is an excellent plan to have a
large, separate board top made, which
when occasion demands may be laid
right on top OF the table without need
ing more support underneath. When
the room is small such a movable top
is much better than to have a large
table. which would ordinarily occupy
too much floor space. Then, too, the
separate top may be either square or
round, as her fancy dictates, and it's
regularity not spoiled by additional
leaves. When not in use the top is,
of course, stored in a shed or down
cellar, safely out of the way.
One woman who has a round table
had large separate top made, by
which she was enabled to seat IA
people comfortably, whereas her table
itself, without extension, held but 12.
seated uncomfortably close to each
other.

PROPER CARE OF CLOTHES.
Time Well Spent in Keeping Belong
inqs in Order.

We all like good clothes and the
feeling of being well dressed. 1t is
not entirely question of money; it
is also matter of detail and of giving
a small portion of our time to keeping
our belongings in order. No matter
how expensive or well fitting ones
dress is the appearance is spoiled by
a soiled stock or piece of lace or a
crushed and frayed skirt.
Just stop and think what saving
of time and money the short skirt is
TO woman, especially the busy wom-
an. No skirt braids need renewal; no
frayed edges give her an untidy ap
pearance.
Take a look at your everyday skirt
and think what an Improvement a
good pressing would be 10 it. This
can be done very easily at home and
should be done every week Or two.
Place your skirt on a covered ironing
board and have handy two hot irons
rather heavy in weight; now cover the
portions to be pressed with a thor
oughly wet piece of unbleached mus
lin folded double, and when pressing
don't move the iron too quickly over

Should there remain Quilted or
