MAKES a GOOD COMBINATION.
Prunes and Oranges for Jam Are
Highly Recommended.

Prunes and oranges make a good
combination for jam. Get the large
sized prunes, if possible, wash them
thoroughly in both hot and cold water,
Their cut from the pit. Put the fruit
through a meat chopper. To each
cupfuI of chopped prunes take a cup
full of cut oranges.
Put in the grated rind of one-haIf
OF the oranges used, then peel and cut
them in small pieces. Good California
prunes will sweeten themselves. but
with the orange they will require
some sugar. A large tablespoonful of
sugar to each cupful of orange will
be sufficient if the oranges are fairly
sweet ones. To two cupfuls of prunes
add one-half cupful of water. Stir all
well together and stand on the back
of the range in a tightly covered ket-
tie or crock.
Do not let it get too hot, but it
may remain at a simmering heat half
a day or longer with frequent stir
rings and hastings, when it will be
ready to pack in the jars.

Cure by Cuticura Remedies.

my son, who is now twenty-five
years of age, when four months old
began to have eczema on his face,
spreading quite rapidly until he was
nearly covered. The eczema was some
thing terrible, and the doctors said it
was the worst case they ever saw. At
times his whole body and face were
covered, all but his feet. l used many
kinds of patent medicines, to no avail.
A friend teased me to try Cuticura.
At last l decided to try Cuticura when
my boy was three years and four
months old, having had eczema all that
time and suffering untold misery. 1
began to use all three of the Cuticura
Remedies. He was better in two
months; in six months he was well.

be his constant habit, as soon as he

mediately possessed himself of a large
slice of bread, the quality of which he
proceeded to test by a liberal mouth
full.
The minister, a stickler in such mat
tiers of propriety, gazed blandly at
him for a moment or so; then he fold
ed his hands and closed his eyes in
preparation for grace.
For what we are about to receive
he intoned with painful emphasis,
"and for what our young friend has
already received, Lord, make us truly
thankful."-Harper's Weekly.

MIR. Jerome Evidently Was Aware of
His Wife's Culinary Ability.

Some weeks ago the wife of Judge
Blank, of Pacific avenue, lost her cook,
and since she had no other resource
she rolled up her sleeves and for d
week provided such meals as the judge
had not enjoyed since those happy
days when the Blanks did not keep a
cook. The judges delight was so great
that by way of appreciative acknowl-
edgment he presented Mrs. Blank
with a beautiful ermine cloak. Quite
naturally, the incident was a good
deal noised about among the social
acquaintance of the Blanks and a
spirit Of envious emulation was de-
veloped in certain quarters. 1t was in
this mood that Mrs. Jerome recited
the story to her husband. What do l

the cooking for a week." Well"
