when she first goes to the associations

barrassed; of her story. she tells only
part, but then, later, warmed and en-

TO whom she is talking. she gives her
full confidence and thus opens the way
for them to minister to her particular
needs AS a result. perhaps, she is sent

she takes up the life of a teacher or

a welcome to girls and women under

mortar and pound well together.

ter. Dry them and pack in a jar.
Make syrup Of one quart Of vinegar
and eight cups Of brown sugar. Put
in mixed whole spices to taste, using
tablespoonful to each two-quart jar.

and sugar to them. Cut slit in the
center of the crust for a vent, and
bake brown; lift off the crust and lay
the top down in a platter large enough
to hold without breaking, and turn
the peaches onto it. This is the old
