easy to- make as many boilings as are
likely to be needed. This can be done
at odd times. As soon as each portion
of fondant is done it should be packed
away on TOP of the last lot, again
closely covered and set away. Then, a
day or two before Christmas, the can
dies themselves can be made.
To give variety to these candies there
will be needed a number of f1avorings
as concentrated as possible; colorings
which, in the form of color pastes, can
be procured from any first-class
grocer; some shelled nuts and such
other accessories as dates, figs, etc.
While it is possible to purchase spe-
cial tools. il is not really necessary for
this hCme work. as a small fork will
answer every purpose When paraffine
or waxed paper cannot be procured,
substitute fat dishes very slightly
creased with olive oil or melted butter.
Have a shallow pan filled with boiling
water. In a cup or other small dish
put a piece of the fondant as large as
an egg; stand in the hot water and
with a fork mash and stir until il is
sOftened to a thick cream. The stir
ring is obligatory. as, if left untouched,
the fondant will melt to a clear syrup

other as quickly as possible; when the
fondant begins to thicken set in the
water again, stir until creamy, then re-
move and resume dipping. This can be
repeated as often as is necessary until

Tonight"
Something of the horror i'm her face
as she turned it was reflected in his
own. This, then, was the reward for
her quiet struggle for life; this was
the reward-the return of this misera-
bic actor whom she learned to loathe
her husband! Whew! the stencil of
perfume and grease paint seemed to
fill ais nostriis; he could see the smooth
fat face shaved blue, as he had seen
it behind the footlights in the metrop-
oils, the bull neck, the professional
curly head!
Then he set his teeth. and dug his
stick into the turf at his feet. The
girl moved a step from him.

that solved all problems, that broke
down barriers and made the way plain
and clear-the way that they should

No matter how many toys are
brought by the good St. Nicholas
much of the joy of Christmas day
woulI be absent if we did not supply
the children with a goodly stock of
"sweeties." When we cannot be sure
that the candies are unadulterated II
pays to make them at home. Once the
art of making the foundation OF fond
ant is mastered il will be found a
comparatively easy task This fondent
can be prepared Weeks or even months
before 1t is to be used, for if closely
covered and kept in dry, cold place
it will keep unchanged for an indef-
mite time
It is wisest for the beginner to take
but small portion of granulated su-
gar AT time-say half a pound, meas
ur7ng a half pint. Put this over the
1lre III a very clean saucepan with a
nall cupful of warm water. Stir only
till the sugar is dissolved or the fond
ant VIII be granny instead of creamy,
ana smooth. When it has boiled for
i've minutes begin to test by taking
up little of the syrup in spoon and
dropping 1t into a bowl of very cold
water; at once put your hand in the
water and see if it has thickened suf-
tciently to be rolled in very soft ball
between thumb and fingers; if not, wait
a moment and test again, These tests
must be made rapidly. for the syrup
passes very quickly from one stage Or
degree to another; and, if boiled a mo-
ment too long, the work must be done
over again. AS soon as 1t can be
rolled into soft ball between thumb
and fingers lift the saucepan from the
fire and pour the syrup on a slightly
creased platter. Let stand until ii is
q little more than blood warm. if
properly boiled, the surface will have
a flexible skin which can be slightly
indented on pressure; should il have
a granular crust add to il one-half rs
much water as before and cook again.
When in the right condition. stir slow
~ and steadily with silver or wooden
spoon. 1t will slowly change, cloud
and thicken until it is too stiff to be
longer stirred. Take up quickly in the
han1s and work and knead as if il
were bread dough. Continue to work

BOY RECLAIMED MEMORY
At FAMILIAR PHRASE

Prof. Pierre Janet, IN his book, The
Major symptoms OF Hysteriar" describes
a number Of remarkable cases OF what
he calls "fugue." or the hysteria mania
that iupels people TO run away. One Of
these is the case OF a boy Of seventeen.
living in Paris, who suddenly lost all
memory Of his previous life and his
home. He left Paris and wandered
about the provinces, at last falling in
with an old china mender, whom he &C
companied and for whom he worked.
The restoration OF his memory Is de-
scribed by Prof. Janet as follows:
zone evening an unlOoked-for event
took place again The days work had
been a success. the two companions had

member stopped and said 10 r.: My
boy. we deserve a good supper, and we
will keep today's feast: II is the flf-
teenth Of August On hearing this, the
boy heedlessly said. The fifteenth Of
August? Why. it is the feast OF the
Virgin Mary. the anniversary Of my
mothers name day He had scarcely
uttered these words when he appeared to
be quite changed. He looked all around
him with establishment. and turning to
his companion, said: But who are you,
and what am I doing here with you >
The poor man was amazed, and was
quite unable TO make the boy under
stand the situation: the latter still be-
lieved himself IN Paris, and had lost
all memory Of the preceding months
where. with great difficulty, the matter
was made more OF less clear. The
mayor teiegraphed TO Paris and the
prodigal child was sent back home"
