FANCY CANDIES.
The fancy candies are easily managed
once you begin to experiment. Maple sugar,
If one has access to a quantity of it, be
mixed with brown sugar half and half This
can be melted over the fire and when not
quite boiling can be taken OF and made
into candy. Take half English walnut,
roll it in this sugar mixture, and drop from
teaspoon nut and candy. all in a mass,
upon piece of buttered paper. and set
away to cool.
Remember, in your candy-making that the
creamy mixture is the foundation upon
which you work. 1t is to the candy maker
The latter makes her rolls, her loaves of
bread, her buns, her rusk and her fancy
breads all out of this mixture. The candy
maker uses her dough in the same manner.
IT IS the foundation upon which she works
and from which all her sweet miracles
wrought.
NUT FUDGE
Crush pound of nut meats either Eng
llsh walnut or hickory, on a molding board
with rolling pin; roll rather fine; this
brings out the "nutty" flavor which adds
to the candy peculiar richness not OBJ
tanned in any other way; stir this into the
batch at the time the fondant goes in.
CHOCOLATE FUDGE
This is made the same as vanilla fudge
only when the fondant is stirred in, add a
Quarter of pound of melted chocolate and
be put in at the beginning of boil or the
favors will not give satisfactory results.
Butter may be added when the chocolate is.
POPCORN CAKES.
Popcorn cakes are very easily made at
home. Pop the corn and grind it. Boil
your molasses, which should be third
brown sugar. Form the popcorn into fiat
cakes, using enough of the molasses to hold
them in shape and, finally, scatter little
shredded cocoanrt over the cakes. This
makes them very palatable.
PEPPERMINT DROPS.
PEPPERMINT drops are more difficult to
make. But a very tasteful peppermint cream
candy be made by favoring the creamy
mass with essence of peppermint. Make UP
into fat drops and coat them with choco-
late if you want peppermint chocolates.
FRUIT CANDIES.
The finest of all candies for household
use are the fruit candies. Take large date,
deprive it of it's pit, and into the middle put
lump of cream candy. Let harden and
you have the choicest of French dates.
COCOANUT FUDGE.
Cocoanut fudge calls for half pound Of
shredded cocoanut This combines with
vanilla or chocolate.

told me this had grown out of her own
experience as a teacher in one of the
rooms many years ago, and had now
been followed by all the teachers for
more than eight years. SO that the pu-

ness. courteous, temperance. etc.
There were hundreds of these words
taking all OF the rooms together. Many
were repeated time and again even in
the same room. There was surely viz
tue in the numbers and in the repeti-
tiOns. The use made of this device
will depend very largely on the teach
er. The principal said that when she
saw anything in the relations of pupils
at recess or other times that needed a
change of view on the part of some of
the children, she was apt, when in their
rooms. to talk a little while about some
historical or other characters in way
to bring out certain virtues or guides
TO conduct. and either pick out those
words on the blackboard which were
appropriate or have the children do so
The principal aim in having these
words before the pupils all the time is
to enable them. through the words. &c
connect their experiences and feelings
with regard to observed actions with
general notions of character. and with
the terms used TO describe men anG
women The silent influence on the
pupils is the one mainly depended on
as word is perhaps given more mean
ing when a boy sees it there after {
recent experience, or a vague feeling
