Nowhere can the correct measure OF

losing both in expense and in quality.

GABLES go i long way in giving Tari-
etv 10 the home table IN the winter
when native fruits and vegetables are
no longer to be had, except in this
form. Children, and the men folks
IS well, prefer the jams and jellies
which mother makes" to any which
,an be bought at the store, and though
their preparation involves intelligent
thought and hard work. later enjoy
ment ought to BIO an ample reward.
Berries and small fruits are about
done in the markets, but fruits and
vegetables suitable for picking and
preserving are now in their prime.
Modern ingenuity applied to house
kecping problems has gone far beyond
The oldtime preserves and sweet
sauces of generation or so ago.
first on the list come the iellies, and
tor this purpose currants. apples,
grapes, ounces and cranberries are
he favorites. Currants are now out
ii the market, and it must be as
sumcd that the housewife took advan-
ago OF the market supply when the
..uit was in season. Both white and
ed currants make delicious jelly, and
a mixture adds variety in color and
flavor.
All fruit intended for jelly should
Je tart and not too ripe, as In the lat
.er case difficulty may be experienced
n getting the jelly firm enough TO
suit. The making of jelly requires
.auch sugar. and II the fruit used IS
mild in flavor or ripe the result will
be insipid. Apples lend themselves
very readily TO the use Of the jelly
makers, whether table fruit or OF the
crabapple variety. Porter apples and
Graverstalns are especially rec
commended. but a good, firm Baldwin

Crabapples are universal favor1tes Tor

somewhat upon the variety OF apple

Grape jelly is we'll liked, but 1ot

need NOT FEED THEM
James Adams Wife Took Children
Out of State.

There was a slip Tuesday afternoon in
the iron jawed provisions of the Kansas
wife desertion act. when Judge Robert
Carver refused to hold James Adams for
the support of the children whom Mrs.
Adams had taken to Kansas City Ad-
ans contributed quite regularly to the
keep of his offspring until his wife took
the youngsters to another state. Then
the payments stopped and the husband
was hailed before the courts.
Evidence in the trial of the case re-
vealed that Adams and his wife were
twice married. In the three years inter
Yen1ng Mrs Adams married another
man, was divorced and returned to her
old love Several times Mrs. Adams want
ed to weep as she told her story to the
court. But she held back the tears.
When counsel for the defense asked Mrs.
Adams about leaving the babies at home
while she attended a dance in company
with another man. Mrs. Adams forgot TO
close her flood gates and for few min
utes she let the big, moist tears saunter
down her face.
1t was in 1903. when Miss Prickett was
married to Adams Some time in 1905 or
Adams and his wife were not filling the
world with conjugal sunshine. Adams
was jealous of his wife and Mrs. Adams
was certain other women had Jared the
foundation of her husbands cherished
fidelity. Seven months after Mrs Adams
got a divorce, her name became Benson.
Then Mrs. Benson went teaTfully back to
her first love holding one of the babies
by either hand. She remarked Adams in
