Whv Cakes Often EaiI.

Because inferior ingredients are
used, such as rancid butter, inferior
sugar, damp flour. and doubtful eggs
Because either the butter is INSULT
GENTLY beaten with the sugar or rubbed
into the -four, or the eggs are not beaten
enough.
Because the mixture is beaten after
the -four is added. whereas all that
should be done before.
The managema0t Of the oven is not
understood and he cakes are either
too dark or too pale.
Because the caEes 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 placed on a
sieve or tilted up against something,
so that the steam can escape.

The very best way to wash sweaters,

light, as it will fade it,
Some ammonia in the water helps
to keep wool garments soft The dis

FOR THOSE FOND OF CHERRIES.
Four Recipes with This Fruit as a
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 very 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 deep dish. Let the sirup boil up
once and pOul 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
ries, 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 a very dainty
dish and really requires little time.
For a course at a luncheon it is most
tempting. Either the large white or
red cherries can be used and it 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,
omitting the pepper.

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 carelessness is
disgracefuI'
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. l 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
rub or two with a piece of roughed
chamois.
She rinses the parts Of the fiat sill
yer that go in the mouth with boiling
water after using the chamois, as
sometimes it gives 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 it look clean"

stains will remove them from wooden

washed out with soap and water. To
remove blood spots, drop cold water
quickly on the stains, and then cover

When dry, brush on, when the stain
should have vanished, though it some
times happens that a second applica-
ton is necessary. Spots that have
dried into the fabric need soaking in
cold water.
