 Quince and PineappIe-Pare and core one dozen good sized quinces, par boil in one quart of water, trying with fork; when tender remove from fire, saving the water they were boiled in for jelly made with parings minus the ceres. For every pound of quinCes add hreefourths pound of granulated sugar Put layer of quinces in pre- serving kettle, then layer of pineapple cook until a rich red color. I use the sliced pineapple that comes in cans
 Fudse-Heat two cups granulated sugar and two thirds cup milk to a chocolate (shaved) and stir constantly until the chocolate is melted. Boil eight minutes, stirring occasionally; add three level tablespoons butter and cook five or six minutes longer, then dip skewer in cold water, take from the water and put into the boiling syr- up, and then into the cold water. Pass the skewer in the cold water between the tumb and finger to push off the cooked mixture. If the mixture does not dissolve in the water but forms a soft ball or mass between the thumb and finger the cooking has been car ried far enough, and the sauce pan must be removed at once from the fire Add a teaspoon vanilla, and beat vigorously until the mixture is creamy and sugars around the saucepan. Then quickly pour into buttered pans. A pan of the size selected for home made bread will give candy three fourths on an inch in depth When slightly cool. mark in squares.

Dear Editor and Sisters of the So- cial Corner: I know you are always ready to welcome Q stranger. I have read so many of the letters that be- gin to feel like one of the family: and as I have not seen any from this city I thought I would try my hand We certainly receive Inspiration from the instructive letters.

CRIMSON RAMBLER SECONDS
 NANcY'S MOTION.

Social Corner Editor and Sisters: After an absence of fortnight. l am here again.
 I think 'eMarigold's" story was a very pathetic one. How very badly those parents must have felt, and at the joy full Christmas time, when the world should be all joy and sunshine.
 I agree with Aunt Nancy in her sug gestions, for something different, for think already we have had a great plenty of recipes.
 Or if we must have them, for those that prefer, let us have something diff ferent. I heartily agree in the fancy work suggestions. Anything in that line will please, and I hope others will speak up.
 I think Nat's experience with the So- cial Corner was all right. How some of my friends did laugh at it. We sin cerely hope Nat will write again.

take the hint and tell how to set table properly. So here goes:
 Setting the TabIe-First put si- 1encer or pad on the table. Under this some people often put sheet of asbes- tos to keep the heat from injuring the polish of the table. Over the pad put the cloth carefully, making sure it is perfectly even. On the right of the plate place the knives in the order in which they are to be used, with their edges turned toward the plate; the soup spoon and the napkin, folded sql1arefy with the open corner at the lower left hand At the left of the plate place the forks, with the tines turned up, ranging from the outside in accordance to the courses to be serv- ed. The glass should be placed at the right just above the knife, in line with the plate, and if bread and butter plate is used it should be at the left, just above the forks. Salts and peppers should be placed one set for two peo- pie A few flowers add greatly to the general attractiveness of the table.

BATTLE ROYAL
is PREDICTED
Franklins and Saints Sunday
--6ams Net Cancelled.

Manager Frank Apologize today
announced that he did not cancel this
St. Anthony game for next Sunday
and did not know why the Saints
claimed he did. The Franklins do
not want to include the Maurer A.
c. in their series with the st. An
thony aggregation while the Saints
have always wanted them. There
fore II the Saints want to play the
Franklins a series OF games. they viii
have to exclude the Maurer nine and
leave them out OF the dealings be-
tween these two teams.
A meeting of the managers of ths
three teams in question will be held
Thursday evening at Manager Apple
gates home to finally decide whether
the Maurer nine will be taken in ths
series. Nevertheless, whatever the
result of the meeting will be, the
game for Sunday is on, and one Of
the greatest treats ever afforded to
local lovers of the national game viii
be given at this time. The greatest
crowd that eve attended a baseball
game in this vicinity is expected, as
many teams are purposely not play
ing this Sunday so as to witness the
feature game OF the season-the St
Anthony aggregation VS.. the Frank
lin nine.

D|SBAND FOR
THIS SEASON
PIainfisId Vsrein's Team
Loses Three Players.

After enjoying a bright and pros
porous season thus far the Turn
Verein baseball team, OF Plainfield,
has disbanded for the season, all be-
cause, 1t Is said, three crack players,
Guthman, Montross and Stewart,
have Joined another aggregation.
The nine has played a total of thir-
teen games thus far and lost but two
of them.
Guthman, Montross and Stewart
were claimed to be the best players
on the team. The former vas &C
credited with being the backbone OF
it, as with his excellent batting capa-
bilities he kept the Turner's In the
front. His batting average for the
thirteen games played was .425, and
In twenty-three attempts to steal he
was successful twenty-one times.
With his teammates he has decided
to go with the West End F. c., of
Plainfeld, with which he will play at
short.
Montross will appear in the out
field and Gus Stewart will help the
West End twirling staff. The West
End aggregation will play the Frank
lin F. c. in this city next month.

GOOD AVERAGE
OF FRANKLINS
GenersI Average .778 and
Batting 379--nO Hits.

With the big game SO close at
hand, 1t is indeed interesting to know
at what clip the Franklins and st.
Anthong aggregation are smuggling
the pill. On account Of the many
changes made by the St. Anthony
team, their batting averages cannot
as yet be exactly discovered. But
the Franklins, who have hardly
changed a man during this season,
are clouting the ball at an average
Of 1873. Fritz, the newly acquired
catcher, leads his other teammates
In batting with the remarkable aver
age of .647, and he has taken part
In every game played by the Frank
Inns.
If the Saints twirlers don't cut the
batting averages of the players in
Sundays game, the Saints will have
to do some awful clouting themselves
to surpass the Franklins and this Is
improbable because of the condition
Of Apologize, who has been pitching
wonderful ball right along, striking
out e~ighty-five batters in eight
games, at an average of nearly eleven
and giving but six free passes in the
same number of games, an average
of less than one free pass for each
game. The team has scored II runs
and made ITO hits in nine games.
Their general average is IT'S.
Following Is the batting averages
of those batting over the 200 clip:

With perfect control and excellent
support when needed, Coley pitched
the Juniors to an easy victory Of
ove the Seniors yesterday afternoon
on the copper works diamond to the
tune of 6 to L. As John Hunt was
barred from playing any more base
ball games this year for using i'm
proper language on the diamond
during the Sophomore-Freshman
game. Manager Henry, of the
"Freshies," stated that his team
would not participate in the inter-
class games. Therefore, by winning
yesterdays game, the Juniors took
the championship of the classes and
will onc more have their numerals
engraved upon the silver cup which
records the inter-class champions
each year.
At the outset the game promised
to be a pitchers battle between Co
ley and Mullin and not until the
sixth inning was the game put ON
Ice. The first run was scored by
the Seniors In the third frame and
this lonely tally looked very big
when the Mullin was moving down
the Junior batters In one-two-three
style in each inning until the fourth.
In the fourth, however, having al
ready retired two men, Mullin set
about doing his usual stunt, but Co
ley landed on the sphere for a long
drive which was good for the cir
cult.
The score remained a tie until the
sixth inning, when the 1912 aggre-
cation scored four runs and practi-
cally decided the game. Kelley
played a star game in center field,
making a wonderful catch which
looked good for a double and which
would have scored a tally since a
man was on base. Kelley also fig

Goldman made a spectacular catch
in the eighth inning by spearing a
hot liner off Woglom's bat. Soield
also speared a hot liner off the bat
of Hardiman in the eighth inning
and made a double play unassisted
by touching second base before
Browning, who was formerly on sec
ond, could return. Mullin pitched a
good game for the Seniors, while
Browning received Coley in his usual
good manner. Woglom featured at
bat for the Seniors making the first
hit and the only run for his team.
