FOR THOSE FOND OF CHERRIES.
Four Recipes with This Fruit as
Foundation.

Candied Cherries-Wash, stem and
pit one pound of large, firm cherries,
putting a pound OF sugar to a pound
of the fruit. Boil the juice and the
sugar to a Verv thick sirup. Put the
cherries in this sirup and let them
simmer-nOt bOil-fOr ten minutes.
Then set them away in the sirup until
the next day. The next morning take
the cherries out of the sirup and put
in a deep dish. Let the sirup boil up
once and pour over the cherries. This
should be done for three mornings.
On the fourth morning boil the sirup
almost TO the thickness of candy, dip
the cherries in and let them get thor
oughly coated, ten place them sep
arately on fla dishes and dry.
German Cherry Pie-Make a cherry
pie as usual, but omit the upper crust.
When almost done beat one egg until
very light and add to it one scant half
cupful of rice cream. Pour this mix
ture over the top of the pie Put pie
back In oven and bake until the Gus
tard is set. This makes a very attrac-
tive as well as an appetizing dish.
Cherry Tapioca-Soak one small cup
Of tapioca in water over night In the
morning add a pinch of salt and cook
until clear, then add butter the size
Of an egg and one cup of sour cher
Les, which have been washed and
stoned. Add to this sugar enough to
sweeten. Flavor with vanilla. turn
into earthen or agate dish and bake
until it bubbles up. Serve ice cold
with rice cream.
Cherry Salad-This is very dainty
dish and really requires little time.
For course at a luncheon it is most
tempting. Either the large white or
red cherries can be used and 1t is
most effective to mix the two colors.
The fruit should be stoned without
breaking and in the place of each
stone is placed a nut meat (hickory
nut, hazlenut or anything you have on
hanD. The cherries are then spread
on the white leaves Of lettuce and
served with a sharp French dressing,

Washing WooIen Garments.

The very best way to wash sweaters,
babies sacques. Ieggings and afghans
in fact, all garments knitted or Gro
cheted-Of wool is to sew the article
in a bag of cheesacloth or mosquito
netting. Then. wash the bag, with its
contents, in soft water with a good
white soap The water must not be
cold; neither must il be very hot, and
of course, the soap ut st never bT

which must be Of the same tempera-
ture as the soapy water, rip the gar
ment from the bag, but do not hang
it on a line 10 dry; lay it fiat on
table without stretching; place in the
air to dry; if colored avoid the sun
light, as il will fade it,
Some ammonia in the water helps
to keep wool garments soft. The dis
astrous experience that many peopl-
have had in washing sweaters is due
to the fact that they wiring and stretch
them, which should never be done
Simply crush the bag to squeeze Out
the water, but do not wiring.

Newspapers may be used to pad the
ironing board just as well as an old
blanket or muslin.
Soap well applied to drawer slides
will keep the drawers in furniture
and closets from sticking.
If you will varnish your linoleum
about every three months it will last
much longer than without the coats Of
varnish.
When washing floors or cleaning
windows always put a few drops of
paraffine in the water and this will
keep away flies, moths and other In
sects.
The skin from a boiled ham will
be more easily removed if as soon as
being taken from the boiling liquor
the ham be plunged into cold water
for a moment.
To mend hemstitching cover the
space of the worn hemstitching with
insertion and stitch both edges on to
tray cloth and it will then be as good
as new and even prettier.
Hair brushes should be washed, If
possible, every day; The best plan is
to keep two in use'+at the same time.
Unless a clean brush is used the hair
loses the bright. glossy look that It
should have.
Cheese may be kept from going
moldy by wrapping it in a cloth dipped
in vinegar and wTung nearly dry.
Cover the cloth with a wrapper Of
paper and keep in d cool place.

A Cooling Drink.

Among the most refreshing Of sum-
mer drinks is pineapple lemonade. To
the juice of four lemons allow a large
pineapple, finely grated, a pound Of
sugar and a pint of water.
Boil the sugar and water together
to a thin syrup, skimming well. Mix
the pulp OF the pineapple and the lem
on juice in a bowl. add the sirup and
set on the ice to cool and ripen for
several hours
When ready to serve, pour into the
mixture quart of ice water and pour
into tall, thin glasses.
If preferred, a charge water can be
used instead of the plain water.

Why Cakes often Fail.

Because inferior ingredients are
used, such as rancid butter, inferior
sugar, damp -four. and doubtful eggs
Because either the butter is insult
ciently beaten with the sugar OF rubbed
into the -four or the eggs are not bea cH
enough.
Because the mixture is beaten afte,
the -four IS added whereas all that
should be done before
The management of the oven is not
understood and the cakes are either
too dark or too pale.
Because the ca zes are not carefully
tested to make sure that they are
cooked.
The cakes are either left in the tin
or put fiat on the table to cool;
whereas they should be laced on q
sieve or tilted up against something,
so that the steam can escape.

Housewife Discovers That II Aids in
Cleaning Silver.

1t may not be manners to discuss
your hostess, said one of the guests
after an elaborate luncheon, but did
you ever see such silver? Mine was
actually greasy Such earelessness is
disgraceful."
Silver is hard to keep bright,
murmured the woman who hated IN
kind criticism.
Nonsense. it isn't. and if it were,
that is no excuse. Think how Caro-
lyn's silver shone at her dinner, and
she only keeps one maid. I asked
her how she did it, and she said it
was by mixing her silver polish with
alcohol instead of water You rub it
up in the usual way, but the mixture
gives a much more brilliant look.
When she takes it out of the bags,
even after weeks slowed away, all she
need do is to give must of the pieces
a rub or two with a piece Of roughed
chamOis.
She rinses the parts Of the fat sill
yer that go in the mouth with boiling
water after using the chamois. as
sometimes it gives a queer taste.
That silver last night could never
be cleaned once a week, even much
less given a special holiday shine. If
the butler was too lazy to see that the
silver was polished, at least he should
have given it a boil in hot washing
soda and water to cut the grease and
make ii look clean"

for him William II. Taft might never

calls downstairs to the editor OF the

With GainsbOroughs and Sir Joshuas.
He owns a large interest in the Gin

and his wife together. Her fortune
he has multiplied.
