Make Table slrup From Apples.

Following extensive experiments De-
bun last spring, the head of the fruit
and vegetable utilization laboratory OF
the department of agriculture has ap-
piled for a public service patent COW
ering the making of a new form OF
table strip from apple juice. rms
patent will make the discovery, which
the specialists believe will be OF great
value to all apple growers as a means
of utilizing their culls and excess ap-
pies, common property of any cider
mill in the United States which wishes
to manufacture and sell apple cider
strip.
The new strip, n gallon of which
is made from seven gallons OF ordl-
nary cider, is a clear ruby or amber
colored strip of about the consistency
of cane strip and maple strip. Prop
erly sterilized and put in sealed tins
or bottles, it Will keep indefinitely, and
when opened, will keep under u
hold conditions as we'll as other slrups
It has a distinct fruity flavor of its
own, which is described as being prac
tically the same as the taste of the
sirupy substance which exudes from
8 baked apple.
The strip can be used like maple
or other sirups for griddle cakes, ce
reals, household cookery, and as fla
yoring in desserts. The government
cooking experts are at present expeI
imenting with it in cookery and expec
shortly to issue recipes for use OF tn
new strip in ola ways and for takini
advantage of it's special flavor in move
dishes.

nine months, she has managed to win

poas Love the Villain.

That characters in photoplays are
sometimes entirely different in real
life is exempliied by Carl Stockdale.
Mr.. Stockdale is usually cast for the
role of the villain and when he is an
actor there probably is no meaner vii
lain in the world, and when he is eth
er hanged or shot at the conclusion OF
the p~hotoplay audience always give
a sigh of satisfaction.
Mr.. Stockdale, however, in real life
is one of the kindliest of men. He
has a horse and a number of dogs that
want to follow him wherever he goes,
Whenever he sees a sick or wounded
dog he always takes it home and
cares for it.
All of which goes to show that
you cannot pick a villain by his make
up.

General Trade Conditions.

Bradstreet's says: Gross currents
in trade and finance, domestic and
foreign, give a very irregular appear
ance to commercial and financial af-
fairs. The war abroad is still the
dominating element in the entire sit
uation and whatever dullness, or, on
the other hand, stimulation is visible,
takes it's rise apparently in the hostil-
tiles in Europe. On the favorable side
of the picture are to be found the
rather better tone of financial matters
caused by international efforts to
bring about a resumption of normal
conditions in the exchange market
the cotton export situation and the re
opening of the stock markets.
Bank clearings for the week ended
October %, according to Bradstreet's
were 1878, 346, 900, a decrease of 24.t
per cent from the same week last
year: business failures were 36t
against 246 last year; wheat exports
including flour, 5,438,478 bushels
against $685. 1888 bushels last year"

Aetresa Has Rluht Idea.

Marion Leonard, n of the few pic
ture actresses to own her own studio
and have her special company, is now
starting to make pictures along. rather
original lines. In the first place, each
picture will be long enough for an en-
tertainment, but, more important than
that, the picture will not be, as
is now the case with all others. of an
arbitrary length. Every play or story
will be presented for what it is worth.
This will do away with the pruning
and padding which hurt SO many pic
lures.
