A SEA ROMANCE
That Happily Ended in a Wedding.

Boston, March End. The prettiest
romance of the sea that has come to
light in many years at this port will cul-
inmate today when Miss Dorothea Moul-
ton, beautiful Minnesota girl, until re-
Gently a school teacher in Porto Rico,
will become the bride of Capt. Fred B.
Balano of the four masted schooner R.
W. Hopkins, and with him will sail away
for a honeymoon under the Southern
Cross in the luxurious cabins that have
been rehtted.
Capt. Balano admitted yesterday it
was love at first sight, on his part at
least, when he and Miss MouIton met in
the tropics. Miss Moulton and young
woman friend were later guests Of the
captain, who then proposed and was ac-
cepted. The wedding will take place at
the home of Herbert Davidson, cousin
of Capt Balano, SO Everett avenue, Som
erville.
Miss Moulton, who is graduate of the
University of Minnesota, was one Of the
few women of the Northwest selected to
teach in Porto Rico. Capt. Balano first
met Miss Moulton in the town Of Utuado,
twenty-five miles from Ponce. Last July,
Miss Moulton and her friend, Miss Bessie
Holbrook of Camden, Maine, accepted
Capt. Balano's invitation to take the sea
voyage home on his vessel, Miss Moulton
proceeding to her home in Dawson, MINI.
The R. W. Hopkins is now at the At
lantic works. East Boston, and its cabins
are handsomely furnished and decorated
for the honeymoon trip.
Capt. Balano, while only 80, has spent
years at sea. He made dozen trips
between Boston and Rio Janeiro in the
schooner Margaret Thomas, which is
commanded by his father. The young
skipper himself has been in charge OF
the Hopkins, which is owned in Boston,
for five years. His home is in Port
CLYDE. Me.

A Hatpin Holder.

From the Baltimore Star.
A useful gift for the prospective trav-
eler is hatpin case made Of a piece
of linen fifteen inches long by eigh,
inches deep. The ends and one side are
finished in shallow buttonholed seal
lop. the fourth edge being bound or but
tonholed with straight band.
Fold the linen twice in the shape OF
an envelope and on the outside of far
embroider the word ''hatpins." Tie with
ribbon overcasted to one edge
Inside the case put strip Of wool in
which the pins may be stuck. or use
the curled filling that is put in the
stand-up cases. This can be removed
when the case is washed.
For service in travelling it is we'll to
choose a rather dark-colored linen. En-
broder in self-tones or in a contrasting
shade rather than black.
Another way to carry set Of hatpins
is to make a strip oe quilted silk from
two pieces of material three inches wide
and thirteen inches long. Fill the case
with several layers of wool waddins and
catch it firmly with three rows of
stitches an inch and a half apart to
form a diamond effect Overcast to the
outer edge of this case a narrow linen
lace put on with fullneSs.
The pins are inserted with the heads
in opposite directions. If desired. the
strips can be made an inch or two longer
to turn back over the hatpin in packing.

CHILDREN SHOULD LIVE IN
SELECT NEIGHBORHOODs

From the Philadelphia Star
A duty every mother owes her chill
dren is to consider them when Sc
lectng the place in which the family
is to live. When incomes are limited
the choice is necessarily restricted, but
in making a decision she should weigh
the effect of the surroundings upon the
children, and settle in the section
beneficial to them.
Childen in cities spend the greater
part of their leisure time in the streets
The thoroughfares are their Fairgrounds,
the only ones that some little folks have
Such children, when out of doors, hear
talk that their parents know nothing
of. and could not prevent, even though
they were aware of it.
The little ones, too. have speaking
acquaintance with individuals whom the
mother does not know. and which, when
her children are much out of doors in
the same environment. she is powerleSs
to stop. Naturally the strangers may
have effects upon the children that are
unfortunate. That the latter is true,
any woman who is much associated with
children who play in the street, knows
beyond a doubt, for the little ones have
an amazing way of suddenly speaking
or acting IN manner wholly foreign
to home training. Inquiry into this
usually shows the undesirable streak was
acquired in the street, or its equivalent.
The only way that a mother can con-
troll outside influences upon her children
IS but putting her little ones where they
are least apt to be subjected to unde-
sirable elements. Complete success is
impossible, and she trusts to the home to
counteract that which she cannot pre-
vent. In this she will be greatly aided
by having the abiding place where the
neighborhood is as good as she can af-
ford. If she will bear this in mind be-
fore moving, she may save herself much
anxiety and fear.
A woman whose income is not linn
tied SO as to prevent her having so much
scope for selection is being criticised BY
many friends because she has Just moved
into a house, most attractive in itself,
which is completely surrounded by
stables and small. second-class shops
The woman has a son and a daughter,
in the streets alone. The house was
built for an artist, which accounts for
its architecture and location, and for a
professional man was not unsuitable
But the point made by the friends of
the woman who has just taken it is that
the environment is totally unsuited to
her children; that going to and from
school, and, later. when playing out of
doors, they will be among persons with
whom it is better they should not asso-
ciate, an opinion with which most care
full mothers will agree.

Mince-meat.
From the Philadelphia Star.

from the Philadelphia Star.
This Is without exception the best mince-
meat recipe 1 have ever known. 1t will
pay every reader to cut from the paper
and paste in a book this choice recipe
Use for this boiled or roasted beef or
tongue. tart apples-Spitzenbergs or
greenings-t&ice as much chopped apples
as meat. Contrary to general opinion.
mince-meat is not unwholesome taken in
moderation, as the combination Of beef,
fruit, and spice. and all finely minced, is
both beneficial and easily digested
Neither is it expensive, the quantity be-
low being quite sufficient to last nearly
all winter for a good-sized family.
The suet in mince pies should be chop
ped fine. One-third butter and two-thirds
suet give better flavor than suet alone.
The beef should be cooked all day until
tender. and the stock in which it is
cooked reduced to a jellyike consistency.
Cool over night and take of the fat be-
fore mincing. Fruit juices, even those
that have begun to ferment, may be used
in mince-meat, as the alcohol evaporates
in the cooking
Allow to three pounds of chopped meat
SIX pounds Of coarsely- chopped apples.
two-thirds of a pound of butter, one and
one-third pounds of suet, four pounds Of
sugar, TOUR pounds OF seeded raiSinS,
three pounds of currants washed and
dried. three pints of sweet cider, three
pints Of boiled cider. one quart of stock.
six heaping teaspoonfuls or cinnamon.
four teaspoonfuls Of cloves, two table
spoontuis of salt. one pint OF molasses.
one teaspoonful Of pepper, half q pound
OF shredded citron, the same quantity Of
candied lemon and orange peel mixed.
and quart and a half of jelly or juice
Of preserves. Boil about half an hour,
just long enough to thoroughly scald.
and pack in stone jars or glass cans. Set
away in a cool place. When ready to
make the pies, scatter a few fresh raisins
over the top Of each pie. and IL not quite
moist enough. add a little more cider or
fruit juice. cold tea or coffee.
