of the knife to remove every parti-
Gle of the eye. Core and weigh. AL
low three-quarters of a pound of
sugar to each pound of fruit. Sprin-
kle the sugar over the SLICED fruit,

thick juice which covers it into the
preserving kettle, adding for each
pound of fruit a quarter-cupful of
water. Cook ten minutes, take out
the slices without breaking. and
spread on a platter in the sun or

lowed to simmer gently until quite
rich and thick. Return the fruit to

scalding syrup. Seal at once.

the bottle.
If the neck of the bottle doesn't
break off by letting the string burn
stick the neck in a bucket OF water
and hit with a stick.
Peach Pickles.
Three pints vinegar, five pounds
sugar, one ounce cloves, seven
pounds fruit, two ounces cinnamon

REPUTATION.

Reputation is what people say about
a man when he isn't in the immediate
vicinity. Character is what they say
to him when he comes in to pay that
little balance. 1t is very easy thing
to acquire a reputation. as new styles
are continually being invented and
tried on. Some regulations are quite
durable and dog man through a pro-
tucted meeting long after the court
costs have been paid. Others shift
arouud like petit juror in tight boots
and change their location faster than
the early symptoms OF appendicitis,
A man can acquire reputation nova
days for almost an! thing except being
devoted husband or joining the
church without trying to stimulate

off is the kind which is manufactured
by the neighbors, who are usually very
frank and anxious to do full Justice TO

DALL Ii
ClI..HIEl-


Most Of us are continually regretting
something in our past. don't mean
actually suffering from remorse, but
simply realizing that We might have
acted much more wisely. 1t is strange
thatwe do not more often reflect that
we are making new past, even at
the very moment of our regrets. and
probably making 1t no more wisely
than we did before.
BY your leave, Ill take my own case
for an instance. My besetting sin is
hunying. have always hurried too
much, tried to crowd too much into
my lays. / look back over my past
and say: ''How foolish was; how
much better OF | should have been ii
/ had not tried TO do so much. How
much happier and healthier should
be today ii had not hurried SO. And
SO few OF the things did were vital
might have left out half Of them
and not affected my happiness or vel.
fare at ALL" And yet, when stop
to think, realize that l am hurrying
today. This year, this month, this
very day am making past of which
| shall probably say much the same
thing ten years from now.
| look over all my activities and say:
But all these are vital. could not
spare any of Them | remember ten
years ago said the same thing when
anyone warned me that was trying
to do too much.
That is my personal experience. l
tell you about that because 1t is the
one with which ! am the most familiar.
But does it not find parallel in your
own life? Perhaps your besetting mis-
take Is not planning far enough ahead.
You look back and say: "lf had
only planned my life wisely and me-
thod2ally five years ago. how much
farther ahead ! might be today" True.
my friend, but very nuimportant as
compared with the fact that IL you
plan your life wisely and methodically
today, you will be much farther ahead
five years from now.
Perhaps the weakest point in your
character is procrastination. "Ah,"
you bewail, as you look back i've or
ten years, "if ! only hadn't put off
taking that course in advertising, ]
might as good a position as G
today, know have Just as much
brains as he.' Come back, my friend.
Come back to the present past, and
look into your life, and see what you
are procrastinatfng now.
Experience is a good teacher but
we are all poor scholars The past OF
five years ago is unimportant com
pared with the past YOU are making
now. If We could only look at this
present past with the unpreIudiced,
ciear.sghted eyes which we turn on
the buried past, how differently We
should live. "a
Perhaps such detachment is i'm
possible, but surely we might take
more interest in this vital past which
we are, making now and which we
have a chance to influence than in
that unlmportant dead past, which no
regrets can change.
