French candies and other confec-
lions will be the subject of this pa
per, and II you intend to attempt
more than just plain dipped creams
a few more utensils may be needed.
For cutting candied fruits, sharp
scissors and q small knife are nee
essary, very large shallow platter
or a marble slab, from some dis
carded old table Is better still for
kneading or beating the candy on,
and fat wooden paddles facilitate
the beating of the fondant. For dip
ping candy small tongs, or small
perforated spoon, is used. The re-
cipe for the cooked fondant should
only be undertaken If you have all
the material and utensils to work
with, and then it may require sew
eral attempts to learn to be success
FIJI. but, as only small recipe is
given, IL will pay you to learn now
to make this, as it is the foundation
of all French candies, and may be
kept and used as desired.
Cooked Fondant.
Ingredients-Two cups graduated
sugar. one-half cup water, one salt
spoon of cream of tartar.
Method-Before beginning have a
clean cloth wrapped around a fork.
place sugar and water In clean
saucepan (heavy porcelain kettles are
best). Stir sugar gently until dis
solved. no longer Take the spoon
out and let syrup boil, have the swab
at hand and as the sugar forms crys-
tails on sides of pan, wipe them OFF

Minaret Slippers

Whether or not the minaret modes
take in this country, 1t Is safe to say
that the slippers which go with those
rather extreme costumes will be a
tremendous success for wear with tea
gowns and negligees. Already they
are being offered In variety of al
Turing shades of kid, deliberately en-
broidered with gold or silver threads
and bearing on the inside of the in
step arch the captivating legend,
Made in Persia" The toe of the
minaret slipper curls half over and
upward and it's heel, scarcely an inch
high, Is shaped somewhat like the
Louis, but with more base, and Is
therefore more comfortable for the
walker. The top of the minaret slip
per matches the tone of the gown
with which 1t is to be worn, but it's
heels always match the embroidery
and are of wood painted with gold
or silver or covered smoothly with a
tinsel cloth.

Shop News

Are you Spug7 II you are, then
do not go near the shopping dis
trict of the city. II you have de-
cided not to spend any money
for presents then stay at home.
| ask you, have you been a
strong enough Spug'' not to give
In" when you sight the stores
aglow with colored lights? Who
could help feeling "Christmasgy"
after a walk along either Broad
or Market streets?
If, though you have been a real,
stern spug. then this Is what you
have missed
Countless women are seen bur-
dened with numerous packages.
Elderly women, unable to carry
the spoils of their shopping adj
venture" go past and by the twin
kle of their eyes and the serene
smile. one may rest assured that
they can remember "the other
Christmases long ago."
Children from every station in
life join the exulting throng. Little
ladies' OF six and seven, wrapped
in costly furs, may be seen alight-
ing from motor cars and step up
to shop window and admire the
toys. Yes, and along side of these
little danes stand be-draggled ur-
chins of the streets, and with sor-
rowful smiles join in with the lit
tie rich girls" admiration. BY the
expression on the faces OF these
poor little children one can see
that to them already this world
seems cold and barren. They have
no doubt, sat for many hours and
pondered over their meagre lot
and their sorrowing parents, I'M
able to give more.
The endless line of Santa
Clauses" or perhaps relatives of
Dear Old Nick" stand at short
intervals and greet little Riddles
from all over this big city and
suburbs.
Groups of schoolgirls go tittering
from counter to counter endeavor-
ing to purchase a suitable gift for
their teacher.
The salesgirls are all weary and
looking forward to the end of this
holiday season. They all try their
best to accommodate the Gus
toners, and most OF them succeed,
for. haven't they the Christmas
spirit and don't they realize their
responsibility in helping others?
Men are In this christmas
pageant" men who have
snatched five minutes from their
office duties and come to purchase
the almost forgotten gift"
Very often you will see an
irritable woman complaining of
the service she receives in the
stores, showing her annoyance of
being showed. Do you know that
l believe this woman should have
been a so-called "Spug." She does
not want to give the customary
gift, but she hasn't the courage to
join the "Spugs." She is no diff
ferent than thousands of others
who make their lives miserable be-
cause they have no courage to be
natural.
The thousands OF smiling faces
that may be seen so far surpass
the Irritable woman's" that she is
forgotten soon.
II you, dear "Spug Reader" have
seen all this and not relented of
your Solemn oath not to give
presents" 1 repeat IL you have
seen all this and not relented, then
you are to be pitied. You are
missing a great deal, and can
never gain II back again.

Safety in Laughter

Dear Margery Doom:
wonder II you can help me to
find an old poem which Is about a
girl that laughed, and laughed, no
matter what trouble came her way,
1t began:
THE I.awsons believed that their
daughter was daft,
For the harder they thrashed her
the louder she laughed"
l am very anxious to secure this
poem for my little daughter to re-
cite, and will be delighted If you
can find Il. MRS. THOMAS Y.

ming Star several years ago. |

ping was quite yellow 1t pays TO
save things, doesn't it7 Am de-
lighted to give 1t to you.
SAFETY IN LAUGHTER.
The Lawsons believed that their
daughter was daft,
For the harder they thrashed her
the louder she laughed.
She'd laugh at the threat of her
mother to whip her,
Shed laugh when her father would
reach for his slipper
She laughed at the tingle
OF switch or of shingle,
She laughed.
And she laughed,
And she laughed.
Those parents would start, in
manner severe,
To serve out the whalings they
planned for their dear,
But they couldn't stay cross with q
daughter so gay
Their anger would melt like snow
bank in May
Their faces would burn
And they couldn't be stern,
So they laughed,
And they laughed,
And they laughed.
Dear friends, let us learn from this
humorous child,
When sorrows afflict us, we
shouldn't be wild
When cruel oppression would hand
us the gaff,
The best thing to do Is to chuckle
and laugh,
Our luck we can BLUM
To be friendly enough,
II we laugh,
And laugh,
And laugh

why did you Gomez" prodded Mr..
Magee. why did you leave your
house on this strange mission?"
'The Lord knows" replied the
woman. 81 certainly never intended

the first thing I knew, l was on a
train. She has winning ways, that
girl-maybe you've noticed?"

IT thought So No, Mr.. Magee, I
can't tell you nothing about her, l

been so kind. She made me promise.
He'll know soon enough she kept

you before there's no occasion to
worry about her-unless you was to

with all that money on her, the brave
little dear. II you was considering

settled down and gave up this-this-
gave 1t all up before something awful
happens to her. You won't forget
the very next train, Mr. Magee?"
1.-THE very next" Magee agreed.
In through the dining-room door
stamped Quimby, grave of face, dazed
at being reused from sleep, and with
him an important little man whose
duty it was to investigate
at Upper Asquewan Falls such
things as had happened that night
at Baldpate. Even from his slumber
he rose with the air of a Judge and
the manner of a Sherlock Holmes,
For an hour he asked questions, and
in the end he prepared to go in
seemingly satisfied state of mind.
Quimby's face was very awed when
he came downstairs after a visit to
,, the room above.
Poor fellow!" he said to Magee.
I'm sorry-he was SO young" For
such as Quimby carry no feud beyond
the gates. He went over and took

Tea Stain on Linen

Dear Margery Doom:
Will you please tell mo how to
remove a large tea stain from a
white linen table cover? The stain
Is big one, caused by upsetting a
cup of tea, and, as the cloth is one
of my good ones, I am anxious to
make sure of removing all traces of
the tea
You have helped me many times.
and l am sure you will again.
AGNES J.
Try soaking the stained part in
cold water; then wiring, spread out
and apply few drops of glycerine
on the stained surface. Spread the
glycerine evenly, and do not use
much of 1t. Let 1t remain on an
hour, then wash with cold water
and soap.

TUNES are becoming to nearly
every figure, unless 1t be short and
unusually stout, and even then
there are styles of the tunic that
would be becoming, so it is deserv-
eddy popular. These tunics or over
skirts are long or short, draped or
pointed and often they are merely
applied bands cleverly arranged to
look like an overskirt. All is fair
this season, as long as the effect is
obtained.
No. S0S4 is an attractive example
of the applied circular trimming
band. which gives the effect of
tunic. The smartly draped sash
adds to the impression. For this
costume tete de negre bengaline is
used with trimmings of the same
colored satin.
1t requires 4M yards of 36-inch ma
terial to copy this gown in size 36.
The drop-shoulder is fashion fea-
ture favored by almost everyone. 1t
