- WRITE to appeal 10 you IN pehdLL
~ Of a noble little girl. just about
grown. who is trying to work her
l way through a business course IN
a college. She is sorely hand!-
caped by lack of means 10 procure type
writer for individual use. She wishes to
learn to make all possible speed in her stud
les and TO that end desires to practice more
than the one hour day allowed TO each stu
dent for which practice, or rather use Of
machine. there is the usual charge Of 81
month She also wishes very much full
bookkeeping outfit. Now. 60 you think 1t
possible that any one with means will be so
touched by the thrill Of human kindness
which makes US all akin as to place a type
writer and the bookkeeping OUTFIT at this
brave girls disposal: If so, you can give
her address. which incIose, to those only
who are disposed to help her and who will
write and ask the true name Of
BRAVE GIRL"
I don't believe there is any one who has
ever known the need of help in some way
who does not feel a longing TO aid girl
who Is striving to make her own way TO
seif-support In this faith print the pre-
ceding letter, hoping it may meet the eyes
of some of the many who are on the lookout
for means of being of service and lending a
hand. The typewriter need not be new to be
useful. and ! daresay the set Of bookkeep-
ing books would be none the less valuable
because they had done duty for some one
else. There must be such machines and
such bookkeeping outfits that have fulfilled
their usefulness to their present owners
and are ready TO move on to some one else
who has need of them. l may remark by
the way that the fee of 81 month for the
use Of q machine for an hour day in a
business college strikes me as a trifie eN-
cessive in consideration Of the charge for
the entire renting of a machine from manu-
facturers and dealers, and would be espe-
cIally glad II the brave girl could be
spared that charge. l will give her address
10 any one who can be of assistance to her
!: !:
Advised 10 Go West.
My request may seem curious, but 1
do hope you can help me. am not very
strong and my doctor has advised me TO 20
10 Denver Colo, or that vicinity. hope
through YOU to reach some sister who
would be kind enough TO give me home
for a month in consideration of my help in
return, l am a willing helper. and hope
1 would not disappoint any one for whom
worked. My age is q. and can give the
best Of references. MARGARET.
print this with pleasure. for it seems
TO me a chance for an exchange OF kindly
service which would benefit both giver and
taker. In fact, l am not entirely sure
which would give and which would take,
for the willing helper might bring into
the home Of the sister breath Of out
side life and of new ideas that might be
worth as much as her work in meeting the
expense Of her stay. will gladly give her
address TO any one who desires TO corre-
spond with her, and such would-be cor
respondent should Of course be prepared
TO offer references as well as to receive
them.

Plain Ice Cream Recipe.

PLAN Ice Cream Recipc.
Can YOU give me a recipe for plain ice
cream. with or without eggs. cooked or un-
cooked? l prefer It without eggs and
cooked. We are very fond OF this dainty
food. but so far my efforts have been un-
successful. A BRIDE
There are many ways Of making ice cream
and all OF them have something to commend
them One of the best is made with Gus
tard of a quart OF milk. three eggs, and .
cup of sugar. Stir together the sugar and
the beaten yolks of the eggs. add the whites.
and turn all into the hot milk. carefully.
Cook in a double boiler until the mixture
is a creamy color and begins to thiCken,
flavor to taste with vanilla. or add melted
chocolate or strong black coffee at discre-
ton and set aside to cool. When cold put
with it a cup or pint Of cream, as you in
cline to have it rich or simple. turn into the
freezer, pack in ice and salt and LET 1t stand
a little while to become well chilled before
you begin turning the dasher. When II Is
so hard frozen that the dasher will no longer
turn take this out. pack the cream anew
and let 1t stand, II possible, for an hour
or more before serving. This is especially
desirable II you add fruit to the cream. as
the waiting is required 10 get the full naVor
of the fruit. This should be put into the
freezer when the cream is about half frozen.
Another good cream is uncOOked and is
made by freezing a quart Of milk, a cup and
a half Of sugar, and either a cup or pint Of
cream Flavor to taste. This makes an ex-
cellent foundation for the addition Of grated
pineapple or chopped peaches or crushed
berries or bananas or other fruit OF any
sort. II you wish you may beat the whites
Of two eggs light and put with this cream,
adding only one cup of cream to the milk
and sugar. l see no reason why your Ice
cream should not be a thorough success
II you follow these directions, modifying
them according to your taste. II you prefer
a mousse or unturned ice cream make II of
whipped cream, sweetened and favored
with fruit juice, coffee. maple sirup, or any
thing you like. and pack 1t in Ice and salt,
leaving 1t in this until il has frozen. This
takes longer to freeze than an ice cream you
make by turning the dasher.
Several good ice cream recipes have been
contributed by our Cornerites and have
either appeared in these columns or will
do SO shortly.

Easter Sunday. 1871.

Il see a request for the date of Easter
Sunday, 1871. Every Book of Common
Prayer Of our Episcopal church contains

fall, from 1856 to 2Ul3, and so find in that
table that in 1871 Easter Sunday came on
April .. l. B. G.
A number of replies have come to this
inquiry. and several have given the in
formation furnished in the above with re-
gard to the table in the prayer book, by
which the date of Easter Sunday can be
found in any given year for a long space Of
time. am grateful to the writers Of these

asked the question and others who wish TO
know how to learn on what date Easter
fell in any special year.

Green Grape Jelly.

SIcGH SIQPC yCLty.
For this purpose the wild or fox
grapes, as they are called in some parts Of
the country, are the best. Strip them from
the stems and wash them, then put them
into the preserving kettle with the water
which adheres to them and heat them
slowly. 1t is well to lay an inverted plate
in the bottom of the kettle that the grapes
may not stick and scorch. Especially is
this necessary if the cooking is done over
gas In this case it is better to set the
kettle on an asbestos mat placed over the
fame When the grapes are broken 10
pieces by the cooking crush them still more
with a paddle or wooden spoon, turn them
into jelly bag. let the Juice drip through
and measure this. To each pint of it allow
a pound and a half OF Sugar. Return the
Juice to the fire, bring it to a boil. and after
4 has cooked for fifteen minutes put in
the sugar, which it is well to heat in pans
in the oven; it should be hot through but
not melted. AS soon as the sugar is dis
solved in the Juice and this returns TO the
oil take from the fire and put into glasses,
rinsing these out in boiling water. Put
a spoon in each before pouring in the hot
Jelly, to save the chance Of cracking.
