darn with it, working in and out with
the weave; then press the darned
place on the wrong side and you will
scarcely be able to see where the
hole once was.
Gloves or any kind of skin should
always be mended with cotton of the
same shade; even silk gloves should
be- .mended with cotton. When kid
or suede gloves have holes in them,
place, small piece of the kid under
the hole and darn the gloves down to
it. 1t is always better to patch a
glove like this on the wrong side than
to attempt to draw the hole together
and thus decrease the size of the
glove.
Patches should be placed over or
under all large holes. People often
try to darn large holes, but this is a
mistake, for it can never be done sat
isfactorily. Always patch with the
same material as used in the thing
to be patched. If the material is fad
ed or discolored with age try to get a
piece of like age to make the patch
of, or fade the material by placing it
in the sun.

There Is a great deal OF truth in
the accusation made against modern
women that they do not know how
to mend either their clothes or their
household goods properly, says the
Philadelphia North American.
Mending Is an art, a distinct art,
that should be taught in the schools.
Then the girls should make use of
the knowledge in keeping their stock
ings darned, clothes mended and table
and bed linen pitched wherever there
is the slightest need of it. ..,.......
Our great-grandmother always
darned their table napery in the pat
tern Of the damask; and If they did
1t, why is II not possible for the
housewife of today to do the same?
A very good way. however. to mend
linen of all kinds, table and bed linen,
handkerchiefs. towels, dresses, blous-
es. ETC., is to put the torn portion in
an embroidery frame. Then It can
be darned without trouble by hand,
or can, be placed under the dresser
foot of the sewing machine, after it
has been released from the pressure
by unscrewing the screw directly over
the top OF the foot bar, then stitching
back and forth, guiding the material
with your hands as you work
1t is quite simple TO darn linen on
the machine so that it requires close
inspection to detect the place where
1t was worn.
Stockings and all sorts of WOODEN
garments should be carefully watched
for worn places and, as soon as they
become thin, should be darned before
a hole appears. 1t is far easier to
darn thin place than it is to darn
a hole. Thin spots should be darned
closely, but not tight; and as for
small holes, do the work over a pol.
ished darner that can be. bought for
8 cents
Large holes should be whipped
around the edges before they are
darned; then the threads will not
pull out and the jagged place viii
present a neat appearance. If the
hole is very large, an excellent plan
is to tack piece Of net as near the
color Of the goods as possible over it,
and work the darning threads in and
out of the meshes, catching them in
the edges of the material as you
work.
Holes in wooden dresses should be
darned with wooden thread matching
the material In color A good way to
obtain this is to ravel out several

APPLES BAKED AND FROSTED

The apple, one of the most highly
priced and most useful Of fruits. is
the basis of many delicious dishes
The following are recommended by
the San Francisco Call:
Apple Pudding-Measure a pint oil
bread crumbs, add two wellbeaten
eggs and teacup OF rich cream and
mix. Put layer of batter in creased
baking dish, then sliced apples; con

Serve with lemon sauce.
Apples with Cocoanut Cream
Peel and core six or eight large
apples, put them into Sauce pan
with pint of water, a teaspoon of
grated orange peel and one-half tea
cup of sugar; stir gently until tender,
then lift carefully into dish. Ii,
Put two tablespoons of shredded
cocoanut in one teacup of milk and
boil for 10 minutes, drain and leave
to cool. Whip one teacup cream,
flavor with one-half teaspoon Of van
lila, add three tablespoons sugar and
the cocoanut. Fill the cavities in the
apples with the cream and serve very
cold.
Apple Dowdy-Line a baking dish
with thin slices of brown bread, but
tered; fill in the spaces with apples
that have been pared, cored and chop
ped; mix a teaspoon cinnamon with
half cup of brown sugar. Sprinkle
this over apples, add half a cup OF
warm water and cover with another
layer of brown bread buttered side
up, and bake slowly one hour. Serve
with cider sauce.
Baked Apple, Creole Style-Pare
and core the apples; cook in little
water and lemon juice. Place in a

marmalade, pouring the liquid in the
baking pan over them. On the top
of each apple place a meringue,
pressing in through a star tubel. Put
in a moderate oven for eight minutes.
Serve cold.
Frosted Apples-Boil six or eight
apples until skins can easily be re-
moved without destroying shape

My only wish with such a dish

But the trouble with a brOiler

Hasn't always got the price to wash
it down.
And what's the use Of turkey
Unless you've lots of dough,

Chicago, Oct. pa card in
