Peach pudding is a very popular
dish with the peach lover. Fill a
pudding dish with whole peeded
peaches and pour over them two
cups of water. Cover closely and
bake until peaches are tender; then
drain Juice from peaches and let 1t
stand until cool. Add to the Juice
one pint sweet milk, four well
beaten eggs, a small cup flour with
one teaspoonful baking powder
mixed in it; one cup sugar, one
tablespoonful melted butter and a
little salt. Beat well three or four
minutes and pour over peaches in

over steam; then add a cupful Of
red raspberry pulp. Beat up pint
of good cream to a stiff broth, and
just as the gelatine mixture begins
to harden, fold the whipped cream
lightly in. Pour 1t into a mold and
chill. If 1t is made right you will
have smooth, velvety pudding that
will fairly melt in your mouth.
Peach Bavarian cream is also fine,

chopped almonds are used, or fla

made much after the same manner,

used instead of the whipped cream.

THE CHICKEN THIEF

Someone had been stealing King
Peters chicken, and his royal high
ness was in a rage. He called his
courtiers to. aid him, but no one
could find the culprit. At last they
all agreed that the .robber must
be someone who had charge of the
animals.
King Peter questioned Wingy-
up, the keeper of the birds, and
Wingyup proved his innocence.
The king next questioned Ransom,
keeper of the lions, but he knew
nothing of it. Nor Rudolph, who
kept the wolves and foxes. At last
Rondel. keeper of the bears, was
called. AT the kings first question
he hung his head in shame and
confessed that his great liking for
!. chicken pie had led him to rob the
loyal memories.
You shall be severely punish
ed for this said the king. 1.-THE
old witch Green Eyes shall name
your punishment"
Green Eyes was called, and
came hobbling into the room in her
black cape and high peaked hat.
This shall be your punishment"
she said. This night you shall be-
come weazel-a 4ittle animal
only eight inches, long and very
1.-the and thin. Your delight shall
be to eat the farmers chickens and
to kill rats. People will despise
you and try to kill you, but you will
be courageous fighter for such
q little animal"
So saying. she hobbled away,
leaving poor Rondel feeling very
wretched, for he knew that the last
stroke of midnight would see him
lose his manly form and become a
little four-footed weazel.
