Answers to Inquiries.

Mrs. W.-Peanut Candy.-We are
glad you had such good luck with
your peanut candy. A little more care
in cooking the batch after you add
the nuts will soon teach you just when
to remove the candy from the fire;
you must remember that the nuts
will continue to roast until the candy
cools. The yellow peanut candy you
mention is called by some yankee
peanut and by others Peanut Brit
tle;" you can make it by cooking your
batch just the same and using the
same ingredients that our receipt of
two weeks ago called for, only just
before you pour the batch out on the
creased pans sprinkle two tablespoon
fuls of baking soda over the candy,
then stir the soda through the batch
and pour it out at once while it is
still foaming. Spread it out thin and
allow to cool rapidly.
Miss S.-To Blanch Almonds
Place the almonds in a suitable vessel
and pour boiling water over them,
enough water to completely cover the
nuts; allow to stand few minutes,
take one of the nuts and if the skin
readily slips off you may pour off
| the hot water-if the skin is inclined
to stick, let them stand in the hot wa
ter a little longer. When you pour
off the hot water you may cover them
with cold water so they will be easier
| to handle. 1t is we'll to blanch them
at once after pouring off the water.
Mrs. J.-Fondant.-We are afraid
you scraped the pan with your spoon
when you poured your fondant out
You must not do that as it will very
often start the grain in your batch and
it will rapidly spread through the en-
tire batch. Try it again and dom
scrape the bottom of the pan into
your batch.

A "suRE.ENOUGH" FATHER.

Are you a sure-enough father.
Or just make-believe?
Are you the kind that just makes the
Children afraid to breathe?
Or do You come with gesture
Brimming with love and JOY,
Ready for romp or for story.
-Chums with your girl or boy?
Are you sure-enough father?
Or are you just machine
Robbing the home of its beauty,
All of its delicate sheen7
Or is your homecoming joyful
Is it the time of delight,
All full of love and contentment.
Fret from the selfish blight?
e aa ~
Are you a sure-enough father?
Counsellor and true friend?
Or are you wrapped up in business
Having no time to lend
So that your children may know you.
Learn to respect and trust,
Following bravely the way you
Show them is right and just?
Are you sure-enough father,
Showing the children snares
Which all.too-often entrap them
If they are caught unawares;
Teaching that truth and that honor
Are to be valued more
Than all the myriad nations
Bountiful golden store?
Are you a sure-enough father.
Entering into their lives,
Knowing each joy and each sorrow.
Leading so each one strives
Nobiy to follow example
Set by father true;
Ready with sympathy always,
No matter what they do?
Are you sure-enough father.
Such as you ought to be?
Friend and a chum and lover
Making your children free
Free from the bondage of sorrow,
Giving them courage strong
Squarely to face all the trials
That arctic come along?
Then you're a sure-enough father,
And in declining years
Richly you'll reap of the harvest
OF joy instead of tears.
Life is the thing that we make it.
And we receive ,ten-fold 4
What we have given in service:
Bitterest dross or gold.

Sand and Gravel.

One of the most important indus.
tries in the United States of which
comparatively little is written is the
production of sand and gravel. In
1911, according to a report by 2. r.
Burchard, just issued by the United
States geological survey, the produe-
tion of sand and gravel amounted to
66,846, ,959 short tons, valued at s21,-
1883. The production of sand Of
all kinds was 4O,253,977 tons. valued
at $14,43S,500, and that of gravel was
26, ,592,982 tons valued at $6720,0S3-
The production Of glass sand was val
ued at $1,457, 1888, an increase over the
figures of 1910; the sand used for
building in 1911 was valued at ST..
1926, a slight decrease as compared
with 1910. This was accounted Tor
by less actil@ty in 1911 in the build
ing trade, including that Of concrete
construction. The production of mold
ing sand in 1911 was valued at $2,132,-
4G9. a marked decrease as compared
with 1910 The production of all 9th
er sands in 1911, such as sand for
grinding and polishing, fire sand, en-
gine sand and filtration sand, was val
ued at $3,043,012, an increase Of over
a million dollars in value as com,

In Siberia, if a man is dissatisfied
with the most trifiing acts Of his wife,
he tears a cap or veil from her face
and that constitutes a divorce.
in Siam the first wife may be d.
vorced but not sold as the others may
be. She may claim the first child.
The others belong to the husband.
Among the Moors, If the wife does
not become the mother of a boy. she
may be divorced with the consent Of

There Is nothing modern about the
Albanian, except his weapons, which
are OF the best caliber, for here he is
indeed connoisseur. The annual GER

Mirdite tribe is very impressive. The
