. used Cuticura Remedies for our baby,
who was nearly bald when young. She
has very nice hair now. She is very
heshy, and we had SO much trouble
with heat that we would bathe her
with Cuticura Soap and then apply
Cuticura Ointment, it would dry the

FOR THE DESSERT
FINISHING TOUCHES TO END THE
DINNER.
German Apple Cake Can Always Be
Counted On-Directions for serv-
ing Junket-Maklnq Pies
With Sour Cream.

German apple cake makes a good
dessert now Without any sprinkling
Of currants It is quite as attractive.
Serve best for cinnamon bun. Use
either cream or hard sauce with it, or
none at all Cream cheese accords
with it.
Junket may not be turned out in
shape. 1t must be set in cups In which
it is TO be served, or else helped from
one large dish with a spoon 1t is
nice plain, or with cream. If desired
more elaborate, then make it in indi-
vidual cups Of pretty glass or china.
and at the last place little mound of
whipped cream upon each, surmount
cd by cherry or piece of jelly of a
bright color.
Junket with ginger bread makes a
good home dessert. Those who like
nutmeg-and it is recommended for
some invalids-use freshly grated nut
meg on it,
Sour cream may be used for pies
just sour cream, not thick clabber,
is meant. The Glove used for splicing
it makes it unlike cheesecake pie.
For cupful of the sour cream allow
tho beaten yolks Of four eggs, cupful
Of sugar and one cupful of chopped
seeded raisins and a half teaspoonful
of ground cloves. Cook this like a
custard over water until thickened.
Have a freshly lower shell of crust
baked to receive it, and make a mer-
ingue from the whites Of four eggs
and little sugar. Brown in the oven
very lightly as usual Instead Of try
ing to see how smooth the meringue
can be made, leave it tossed into hill
ocks, or drawn around in swirling
lines, more or less parallel with the
crust edge. This crust should be in
dented and rather high, to support
the filing and meringue.

had used fraud and Misrepresentation
in securing two lots of flour, n on
August q last and another September

MAN MISSING:
BOOKS BADLY
MIXED
Fashionable Schuyler Arms
Apartment Hotel in New
York Has a Sensation.


NEW YORK, Oct. 5.-Captain will
lam E. Gum. manager of the Schuyler
Arms. a fashionable apartment hotel
at 80 West Ninety-fourth street. is
missing, and experts working on hss
books have found them badly muddIed.
Besides managing the apartment
house, which is owned by the Robert
Hoe Company. Gum was president Of
the Hotel Experts Company, with Of
fees in the Times building. Employed
in this office was a handsome girl stem
ographer. He disappeared on Septem-
Der %. The girl disappeared about the
same time.
Captain Gum, who was under no
bond, deposited the hotel funds in the
Colonial Bank. He withdrew this ac-
count on the day he disappeared. It
is said the new manager, F.. E. Sand
ford, is receiving daily many bills the
owners supposed had been paid.
The rentals from apartments in the
hotel amount to $50, 900 a year, and
just how much of this amount is miss
ing will not be known until the books
are Strengthened out. Mr.. Hoe Is in
Europe. but r. W. F. Crane, of the
company, said today:
I'VE do not know how much is miss
ing and we will not be able to tell until
the experts have finished their work. The
books were left In great confusion. I do
not think the mount taken win be any
thing like $4,000, but I cannot say posi-
lively. In fact, there Is little I can say
now. 1 would not want to do any injus-
tice to any one. We have not applied
for a warrant yet. In fact, there is moth
ing we can do until we learn from the
books just what has happened. Gum left
no word and gave no notice."
Gum, who was in receipt of a handsome
salary and who lived in the hotel, posed
as an unmarried man. He is about a
years old, of medium height and always
wore a Vandyke beard. His manners
were eaffable and quiet, and he was q
general favorlte with the patrons OF the
house 1t is understood tina he came
from San Francisco.
His title of captain was given after the
Spanisih-American War, in which hs
served, although a friend said last nigh
that he always understood thai Gum wa:
a navigator formerly and picked up hi.
title on shipboard.
