BALDWIN WALLoPS MATTRESSES
IN NEW INJUNCTION


Judge Baldwin, in an Injunction is
sued at the request of the Efting and
Powers restaurants against the wait
resses union, has restrained the
strikers from picketfng, distributing
or exhibiting any printed matter
maintaining espionage or uttering
threats.
The injunction is the most sweep
ing that has ever been issued. The
court declared the case is more Sc
rious than any labor injunction suit
he has ever handled 1t will probably
be taken to-the higher courts.
Fitting and Powers restaurants are
distributed on the North and South
Sides. Affidavits from business men
who have stopped eating at the res
taurants were read. One decaared
that the picketing gave him an "un-
comfortable feeling"
Though the restaurants refuse to
grant the demands of the mattresses
for increased wages, the petition of
the restaurant company indicates it.

A FRUIT CAKE THAT DOESN'T
 HAVE TO BE COOKED.

Dear Editor and Social Corner Sis ters: What a lovely month October was. I have been busy as could be. I en- joy planting bulbs for next spring. like to see them break ground early, for it makes one feel as if spring mad surely arrived.
 I save out for house culture a few each of tulips, hyacinths and narcis- sus. After potting, place in the cellar bring them up to the sunlight, and they will blossom when everything else is resting through the winter. It 4s pleasing to see them bloom in cold weather.
 have some recipes I should like someone to try:
 Bran Bread-One cup flour, two cups bran, two cups sweet milk, one-thir ] cup molasses, a little salt and one tea spoon sa1eratus. Bake an hour in cov- cred basin.
 College Girls Fruit Cake (without cooking)-One pound raisins one pound dates, one-Quarter pound figs, one- quarter pound English walnuts. one- half pound powdered sugar, one pound rolled crackers (like hour). one-haIi pound citron.

WILD FLOWER NEEDS A REMEDY

Dear Social Corner Members: have received much help from the various letters that have been written to The Corner, and am still looking for more, as you will see.
 have an awful lot of trouble with my rect. l always have had corns that have bothered me a great deal, and have used remedies without number. some of which afforded relief for a time, others that did no good.
 Last winter I chilled my feet and all summer suffered untold agony with them on all the toes. It was as if they were being burned all the time. People told me they would be better when the weather was cooler, but just now they are as bad as ever with this terrible burning and stinging and the corns are bad, too. It seems to me 1t must be inflammation in the toes.
 I have had a very busy summer and am nearly as busy now, so get very little time to go out, but would go more only for this trouble. To put on shoes that are respectable looking is perfect torture and it makes me sick all over.
 I wonder if any of the readers know of anything that would help them. I would be so grateful to anyone if they could tell me something to bring relief. Tn the winter they itched ter ribly, and for that I used the fol- lowing: Cut up well-washed raw potato and sprinkle liberally with salt and Dathe the parts with the liquid this makes. It gave relief at once.
 Will try and send some helpful hints next time.

MIND YOUR COMMENTS

Dear Editor and Members of the So- cia1 Corner:- Waiting for my train in Willimantic station, travel worn, dusty and stupid, my mind diverted by the chat of several nice-appearing people regarding The ally Bulletin and The Social Cercer. T. learned incidentally the identity, Of Queen Bess, Crimson Rambler Sainanthe and her bright daughter, and that Widow Submit wrote Cnde- different names, but ev- cry one knew her just the same.
 Possibly tse group will recall the drolIs rat story that suggested to me that some one might follow my ex- ample by feeding their rats on salt fish and potato cakes cakes and leving windows open for the mauraders to go out in search of water. Try it
 E In writing, guard against the re- petition of words. Do not always be whating. Sometimes "that" may be used instead of what" often a sen tence may be reconstructed and re- vision is a. good, worth while practice.
 The Corner must have a great so1ace to many. and think of the bright articles in store for the winter. Every reader should write one letter at least. Do. rot mind criticism. I am new, you see.

STUFFED POTATO AND APPLE

Dear Sisters of the Social Corner. The following tested recipes may help someone:
 Stuffed Petate-wash and dry as many medium sized potatoes as you need for a meal and bake them 35 minutes. Then open them lengthwise and scoop them out, leaving very lit . tie of the potato inside Butter each part and fill with this dressing: For each potato one medium tomato, one teaspoon chopped onion, one-half tea spoon green pepper. one teaspoon but ter, one-quarter saltspoon black pepper. Peel the tomatoes, remove all seeds and cut them into pieces. Put the but ter into saucepan and when melted add the onion and cook two minutes; then add everything and cook 15 mini utes uncovered. Pass the potato through a colander, mix 1t well with the tomato and i'll each potato level so as to close them. Put them in the oven for 15 minutes. Serve hot.
 Stuffed Baked AppIes-Remove the cores, but do not peel; fill the cavity with chopped dates, add one half cup of water and bake three-quarters of an hour. Serve with sugar and cream. PRESTO

pay well in bright expectations and pleasurabIe results.
 From my experience think it is a Christian duty to teach the cultiva.- ton of plants to the young, creating love of studying God and nature.
 The earliest flowers are the snow drops and crocuses which are ready to appear as the frost leaves the ground, obeying natures call and bringing joy and gladness with them
 To plant croCuses make a hole in the grass plot and put in bulb here and there. You will be delighted with their early appearance and their readiness to retire to their hiding place as the grass springs into growth; and when the springtime comes again three will appear in the place. of the one you planted and you will realize a thrill of delight to see them
 The narcissus and hyacinth soon fol- low to fulfill their mission of joy and gladness; and the tulips come soon af- ter, arrayed in bright colors
 Try putting a hYacinth in a pot of sandy, soil, or a tulip bulb, and stink
 the pot in the ground, cover with e lit-
 tie fertilizer and leaves and you win be surprised to find them growing in the spring; bring into the house and enjoy their bloom and fragrance. A welcome to all new writers and | success to our loved Social Corner. | GREAT GRANDMA

TEAS. CRUEL, eAReLE, LiNIMENT.

 Baisam Liniment-The fruit of the balsam a""le (momordica balsamina) picked when ripe and preserved in al- cohol, is very efficacious when applied to a. fresh wound.
