TRY CRANBERRY JELL BLOCK
Not a New Idea, but 1t Is One mat
Has Seemingly Been Forgotten
for Some Time.

The newest thing in cranberries Is
cranberry jelly, made solid and stin,
and cut in little blocks. That Is not
very new, but then styles do not
change in cranberries as they change
in skirts and bod;ces, and doubtless
the good old cranberry is good enough
in tbs good old ways.
If you wish to serve cranberry jelly
in blocks you must make a rich, solid
jelly that will hold its shape. Pour
it while hot in a fiat, square dish-a
dripping pan, If 1t is enameled, for
cranberries should never come in con-
tact with tin as tbs acid in them
affects the tin. Have jelly an inch
and a half or two inches thick and
when 1t is cold and very hard cut 1t
with a sharp, thin stee! knife in inch
and-a-half or .two-inch squares.
This is a recipe for jelly that is hard
enough to block: Wash thoroughly a
quart Of sound cranberries. rejecting
any that show a soft spot, and being
careful to remove all stems. Put them
in q porcelain or granite saucepan
with half a cupful of hot water and
a heaping cupful Of granulated sugar.
Cook them in a double boiler rather
than over the direct heat. Then run
them through a sieve and mold in the
fat pan.
A good, old-fashioned rule for the
amount of sugar needed for cranberry
jelly Is this: Put in all the sugar you
can afford to use and then add another
cupful." And with very tart berries
the allowance of sugar given above
might need to be increased.

Connection Defined.

In deciding that a retail oil dealer
in Iowa may recover damages from the
Standard Oil company for going, into
the retail trade in competition with
the plaintiff with malicious intent to
drive him out of business because he
quit buying his supply from the de-
PENDANT and got it elsewhere, the SUI
preme court of Iowa says in Dunshee
VS.. the Standard Oil company:
Men have the right to engage in
lawful competition. and though the
competition may have the effect OF
driving another out of business, if the
competition is lawful no action arises
though injury resulted from the COM
petition. Where there is lawful COM
petition for gain, for supremacy in
business, for the legitimate control OF
business, even though the purpose and
effect of the competition Is to drive
from business competitors, yet If the
competition is lawful and carried on
in e. lawful way no action will lie.
There is a difference between lawful
competition and simulated competition
carried on with the sole purpose and
intent not of profit and gain, but OF
maliciously injuring others engaged In
that particular business"

PROPER COURSE IN READING
Systematic Selection, With Purpose,
Is About the Only Way to At
tain Results.

A book, an apple, and a blazing fire.
What more can the heart of man de-
sire?"
Pretty near solid comfort isn't it?
Especially If the fire burns without
smoking, the apple is ripe and juicy,
and the book is of the right kind. For
the book is the most important part
Of the combination.
In planning your reading for the
long winter months, it is good thing
to have some definite idea in mind
some particular line along which you
would like to add to your store OF in
formation. 1t may be history, biogra-
ply, science or farming. 1t may be
that you would like to know more
about animals, or bug or birds. II
you take pains to plan your course OF
reading carefully, you may in lew
months spare time accomplish great
deal.
Suppose for example, that you are
principally interested in birds. There
are enough books, magazines and 9TH
er literature devoted to these pretty,
feathered friends so that it will be
easy to find material for the whole
winters work on this one subject.
OF course you should make notes as
you go along. In this way you can
save for future reference any scraps
of information that you may CLEAN
from the sources at your command
and you will find in a short time, that
YOU have accumulated vast fund
of definite knowledge on the subject.
For convenience you may divide
your notebook into several sections
under such headings as follows:
1. Glasses of birds. 2. Their nests
and nesting-places. 3. Their habits
and food. A. Description and classifl-
cation of common birds. 5. Birds
that are rare or extinct. 6. Miscel-
laneous notes and anecdotes.
Any subject may be divided in
similar style By following some
such methods one is enabled to put
knowledge into definite shape, which
helps one to remember and make use
of vastly more than when 1t is left
a mere tumble of odds and ends.
One need not-in fact should not
confine reading to only: the one CEN
trail subject. Good literature OF any
kind should be mixed in for the sake
of variety. Every boy and girl should
acquaint themselves with the great

our own and of former times. The

better time for this. purpose than, the

AS ENGLAND SEES US
TYPICAL AMERICAN NOT RE-
FERREO TO FLATTERlNGLY.
Truth Is, the American Is Of Type
That the Old World Has Not Yet
Come to Understand, and So
Its Judgment Is at Fault.

The Americans as race walk better
than we-more freely, with taking
swing, and almost with grace. How
much of this is due to living in de-
mocracy. and how much to wearing no
braces, it is very dicult to determine.
But certainly it is the land of belts,
and therefore of more loosely moving
bodies.
Also, Americans take their coats on,
which is sensible; and they can do
it the more beautifully because they
are belted and not braced. They take
their coats off everywhere and any
where, and somehow it strikes the Wis
itor as the most symbolic thing about
them. They have not yet thought of
discarding collars; but they are I'M
ashamedly shirt-sleeved.
Any sculptor seeking to figure this
republic in stone must carve in fu-
ture a young man, open-faced, pleas
ant, and rather vulgar, straw hat on
the back of his head, his trousers full
motto written beneath will be, OF
course: This is some country.
The philosophic gazer on such q
monument might get some way TO-
ward understanding the making OF
the Panama canal, that exploit that
no European nation could have car
ried out.
The American race seems to have
developed two classes, and only two,
the upper middle and the lower mid
die.
Their faces are very distinct The
upper-class head is long, often fine
about the forehead and eyes, and
very clearly outlined. The eyes have
an odd, tired pathos in them-mixed
with the friendliness that is SO admir-
able-as if of a perpetual. never quite
successful, effort to understand some
thing.
1t is like the face of an only child
who has been brought up in the COM
pany Of adults. But the mouth Of such
men is the most typical feature.
1t is small, tight, and closed down
ward at the corners, the lower lip
very slightly protruding. 1t has very
little expression in it, and no curves.
There the Puritan comes out.
But no other nation has a mouth
like this 1t is shared to some ex-
tent by the lower classes, but their
mouths tend to the wider and more
expressive.
These, anyhow, are the types that
strike one in the eastern cities. And
there are intermediate varieties, as
of the genial business man, with the
narrow forehead and the wide,
smooth, lower face.
The womens faces are more in
determinate; not very feminine;
many of them wear those invisible"
eyeglasses which center glitteringly
about the bridge Of the nose and get
from them curious air of intelli-
gence.
Handsome people of both sexes are
very common; beautiful and pretty

The daily cares Of keeping house

enough for a healthy woman. The
tired, weak mother who struggles
from morn to night with lame, ach-

Many women believe that urinary
disorders and backache are female

men suffer the sam aches and trou-

Women are especially subject to xiii

worry, and the STOPPING, straining and
striving of homework all help to bring
1t on. At first the trouble may be only

and a drowsy, dull languid feeling, but
this condition is dangerous to neglect,

do much toward breaking up severe
cold and are also beneficial in cases OF

lalso an important part in sandwiches
not intended for curative purposes. A
combination of ground raw beef and
minced onion is favorite with many
men and caviare sandwich would be
a dismal failure to most of US II the
finely chopped onion was omitted.
Onion Soup-Onion soup is popular
in high-class restaurants, but seldom
seen on the home table. AS it is
economical, delicious and easily pre-

trial. Chop onions very fine and fry
slowly in butter. Add homemade
stock or canned consomme or bouillon

Peculiar Reasoning.

Uncle Bill' James, an eccentric but
honest old gentleman of a certain
county in a southern state, by hard
work and much self-denial, had man
aged to save up and deposit $500 in
the bank in the town near his home.
One morning, neighbor, thinking to
have some fun, told the old gentleman
that the bank had failed. Grabbing his
old pistol, Uncle Bill was soon at
the bank. Presenting his weapon at
the cashiers head, he demanded the
$500 that he had deposited
Certainly" said the cashier, as he
began counting out the money.
Uncle Bill' eyed the proceedings
for a moment, and then his mouth fell
open. "H-h-hold on a minute" he said.
"H-h-ave you got the money!"
"Of course | have" answered the
cashier, as he went on counting it out.

AS ENGLISH MAKE PANCAKES
More Elaborate Than the American
Type, But Results Are Said to
Be Excellent.

English pancakes are not the sim

Americans are accustomed, but elab-

ways Of making them:
For custard pancakes use the yolks
Of six eggs and the whites Of two, a
grated nutmeg, wineglass OF BRAN
dy, a pint OF cream, with sugar 10

through a sieve into basin, shake
In the flour and mix it with the eggs.
Add the nutmeg, sugar and cream.
stir all we'll, add the brandy. then the
whites, beaten to snow. Pour the
mixture into a small shallow pie dish
and set it in a moderately heated
oven.
When it is done and cold cut it into
slices and then dip each slice into
batter made with cream. eggs, flour
and little grated ginger. Fry them
in boiling lard, drain them and send
them to the table garnished with malt
lemons and powdered sugar.
Lancashire pancakes take trouble
to make, but are worth the effort
Take the yolks of ten eggs and the
whites of five, quart of cream, six
tablespoons of -four, two wineglasses
of brandy, one grated nutmeg, quar-
ter of a pound of Brazil nuts and the
same weight of sugar.
Beat the yolks and pass them
through a sieve upon the -four IN
basin. Stir in the cream and grated
nutmeg, then the butter. which has
been warmed; then the brandy. Add
a pinch of salt. the nut meats sliced
as thin as possible, and lastly the
whites whipped to snow. Fry the
pancakes in heated butter as thin as
a crown piece. Dish about six, one
upon another, busting sugar between
them. Serve with half oranges and
powdered sugar.

Whooplna Cough Caused by Germ.

That whooping cough is caused by
the bacillus pertussis, discovered by
Drs. Bordet and Gengou, has now at
last been proved beyond a doubt.
Masses of minute bacilli infest the
epithelial cells lining the windplpe,
and tubes that lead to the lungs.
Their action is chiefly mechanical;
they interfere with the normal move
ments of the ella by sticking them to-
gether: in this way the germs furnish
a continual irritation, which results,
in the symptoms peculiar to the dis
ease" Drs. Mallory and Horner now
announce the results Of experiments
upon puppies. They infected these
animals by Injecting the sputum of
whooping cough patients into their
noses and threats. Six weeks later
the lesion characteristic of the disease
was found in their windpipes. Normal
puppies that associated with them
caught the disease.
