TRY THIS APPLE MINT JELLY
No More Delicious Combination. for
Those Who Like Flavor, Can b
Served With Mutton.

Apple juice forms the basis OF a
great number of our conserves and jel-
lies, and here is an idea that will be
new and pleasing to those who dearly
love their mutton served with mint
and apple jelly. as it should be. Cut
apples out without pairing; simply cut
ting out bruises and imperfect spots.
Barely cover with cold water, put q
cover over the kettle and let them sim
mer until soft throughout; then turn
into cheese cloth and drain. Measure
a quart of this juice and three cups of
sugar. Set the sugar in the stove
oven, spread on shallow dish. Place
the juice on to boil with the fresh, ten.
der leaves from bunch Of mint. Cook
20 minutes at boil; strain out the
leaves; add the hot sugar and boil un-
til the syrup will jel! when tested on
a cold saucer. If you wish the pretty
green color or the mint jelly served
you at the tearoom table, use. little.
as 1t must be dainty tint. Pour into
glasses same as other jelly. A pretty
fancy is to use tiny tumblers or glasses
such as the imported barbecue comes

few thousand dollars worth OF
church property. Now their church
holdings are valued at $57,000,0O0. In
1867 there were 800 schools for freed

To serve and uplift the negro race
BY training its girls and young women
to be good cooks and good laundresses
Is the purpose of the National Train
ing School for Women and Girls--an
awkward title for one of the most
interesting experiments in vocational
education yet made in this country,
says the Baltimore American. The
primary object is not to train girls
to be servants, but to train them 80
that II they do become servants they
will be good ones, and If they become
housewives in homes Of their own
they will be efficient there. To this
end this school has subordinated the
conventional three RS OF the conven-
tional school to the unconventional
three BIS Of this particular school. To
quote from the school catalogue: 1.-THE
aim is to make practical use OF the
three B's-the Bible, the bathtub and
the broom. The Bible is the text book
for all students, and by daily study
and teaching students will be brought
to value it as the best guide for &C
ton. The positive power of the bath
tub In refining and developing ones
physical powers is dwelt upon; phys
ical cleanliness is required. The broom
holds third place in importance in the
practical scheme. The negro home
is suffering more from the lack of
women who know how to make and
maintain a home than anything else.
This school is established to train
housekeepers and home makers.
Every student is taught how to work
and must not be lacking in disposi-
ton to do SO. A clean life, clean
body and a clean home are all
that the humblest member of the race
needs to insure real advancement. We
shall conform to the actual needs OF
the race regardless of present educa-
tional methods and notions"
