 DELICIOUS FISH DISH.
How to Prepare and Serve Apples Stuffed With Jam and Chopped Almonds-Syrup Improves
 Flavor of Compound.

Then sprinkle well with salt and pepper and powdered cracker crumbs; dot with bits of butter It is then ready for the oven Then mince & small onion and simmer in butter until light brown. Pour over it a pint of stock and let it boil about ten minutes. Strain, then add a can of mushrooms chopped fine.

 Stuffed AppIes.-Select large juicy apples of equal size (pippins are best). pare and core them, leaving the apple whole. Lay them In a mixture of brandy and lemon juice until they have acquired the flavor. Then cook
 
 sugar and water. Drain carefully and bake few minutes in a quick oven. When done, but still hot, fill the cen ters with pineapple jam or peach mar malade with a few chopped almonds added. Cover each apple with a jelly produced by boiling down the syrup in which the apples were first cooked with very little more brandy. This syrup will give the apples a beautiful glazed appearance. Arrange the ap- ples on dessert dishes and serve with whipped cream poured around them. or form apples in shape of dome and cover with a meringue of beaten whites of eggs, powdered sugar and vanilla, sticking over the top sweet almonds cut in lengths. Place In oven until meringue is a delicate brown.

HANDS WOULD CRACK OPEN

About two months ago my hands started to crack open and bleed, the skin would scale off, and the good flesh would burn and itch dreadfully. When my hands first started to get sore, there were small blisters like wa ter blisters which formed. They itched dreadfully, it just seemed as though 1 could tear the skin all off would scratch them and the skin would peel off, and the flesh would be all red and crack open and bleed. It wor- ried me very much, as I had never had anything the matter with my skin. l was so afraid I would have to give up my employment.
 My doctor said he didn't think it would amount to anything. But 1t kept getting worse. One day I saw piece in one of the papers about lady who had the same trouble with her hands. She had used Cuticura Soap and Oint- ment and was cured. l decided to try them, and ny hands were all healed before I had used one cake of Cuti- cura Ointment. I am truly thankful for the good results from the Cuticura Soap and Ointment, for thanks to them l was cured, and did not have to lose a day from work. I have had no re- turn of the skin trouble" (Signed) Mrs. Mary E. Breig, 2522 Brown Street, Philadelphia, Pa, Jan. 12, 1911.
 Although Cuticura Soap and Oint- ment are sold everywhere, a sample of each, with 32-page book, will be mailed free on application to "Cuti- cura," Dept 6 K, Boston.

Care of Bedrooms.

In each room there are special pieces calling for special care The bedstead needs cleaning weekly. Top, bottom, back and front must be gone over with a damp cloth, or perhaps a sponge wet in benzine. If any trace of the cimex is found use the best alcohol generously. This not only kills those that are alive, but destroys the eggs and cleans mattress and bed The nesting place must be examined and treated. Picture holdings, back and front, picture frame, woodwork cracks in walls and floors, loosened paper must all be watched. Closets should be cleaned systematically, shelves and floors and cleats should be washed. All discarded articles should be removed at once.

Incident Overlooked.

A New Englad farmer, noted for his uncontrolled temper, became con- verted, according to the St. Louis Re public.
 A month later he was holding forth to a number of friends and relatives gathered at the Thanksgiving dinner table on the subject of his religious principles, his entire change of char acter and his kind and forbearing dis position.
 Finally growing enthusiastic in his description, he called on his wife to uphold his assertions.
 "Jane," he shouted, you haven't had an unkind word or deed from me since l got converted-now, have you?"
 There was dead silence; then came in meek, yet reminding tones from the other end of the table.
 Jerome, Jerome, you've forgot the time you bit me-

Knew Just What to Do.

A parlor lamp which did duty for the same young man seven nights in the week had struck, and was slowly going out. The red glow grew fainter and fainter, and as the shadows merged one by one into the gloom a weird and eerie feeling crept into the young girls soul. George" she asked, in tones that were tremulous with suppressed agitation, what would you do if you were strapped hand and foot in chair while a candle, stuck in the top of a keg of gunpowder a foot from your head, burned slowly down and down and down.
 And George, who has been gazing expectantly at the lamp, answered, q would blow it out"

Most Married Men Will Understand Just Why That Particular Hat
 Was So Becoming.

Mrs Jones came downstairs one evening, after dinner, and displayed herself to her husband, embellished with the result of her all-day skirmish- ing in the milliners' shops.
 "John.' she asked, how do you like this hat on me?'
 "Oh, I don't know" he answered. Have you bought itT'
 No, not exactly. I brought 1t home on approval. 1 intend to take either this or another one. which is five dol lars more than this, but I thought"

FOUND RIGHT PATH After a False Start.
"In 1890 I began to drink coffee.

III 1o5U began to uT1nR cOHee.
 "At that time I was healthy and en- joyed life. At first I noticed no bad effects from the indulgence but in course of time found that various troubles were coming upon me.
 "Palpitation of the heart took unto itself sick and nervous headaches, kid ney troubles followed and eventually my stomach became so deranged that even light meal caused me serious distress.
 Our physicians prescriptions failed to help me and then I dosed myself with patent medicines till I was thor oughly disgusted and hopeless.
 Finally l began to suspect that cof fee was the cause of my troubles. I ex- perimented by leaving it off, except for one small cup at breakfast. This helped some but did not altogether re- heve my distress. It satisfied me, however, that was on the right track
 50 I gave up coffee altogether and began to use Postum. In ten days I found myself greatly improved, my nerves steady, my head clear, my kid neys working better and better, my hearts action rapidly improving, my appetite improved and the ability to eat hearty meal without subsequent suffering restored to me. And this con- dition remains.
 Leaving of coffee and using Postum did this, with no help from drugs, as abandoned the use of medicines when began to use the food drink" Name given by Postum Co, Battle Creek, Mich.

LIFE SAVED BY
 FRIENDS ADVICE

About three years ago I suffered with appendicitis and after having an operation performed it left me with severe case of kidney trouble. l was doctored by sev- eral physicians and getting no relief took the advice of friend and procured a bot tie of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root. After taking the contents of the first bottle felt greatly relieved and decided to continue it. After using the contents of three more dol lar bottles, experienced complete cure. l cannot recommend Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root too highly to anyone suffer- ing from kidney or bladder trouble.

Cut tomatoes, large white onions, green and sweet red peppers, also cu- cumbers, in very thin slices, add a good French dressing and let the salad stand for an hour at least on ice in a cool place.
