Preparation of Three Seasonable
Fruits.


THE possibilities of the orange are
quite inexhaustible. The richest
. fruit is said to be the russell
skinned, and the best test in buying
is the weight. Usually the large
oranges are not the best Favored.
therefore choose them without regard
to size, but be sure that they are
heavy. They are better than drugs for
certain ailments. They act on the liver
and bowels and nourish the body, as
well as furnish organic salts.
We have long had the habit Of put
ting tomatoes in hot water to make
them peel easily. Now some house
keeper has discovered that If oranges
are allowed to soak few minutes in
boiling water the skin may be re-
moved easily and with 1t will come
the inner white skin, which must be
taken Off neatly If the orange Is to be
sliced. Now slice them off all round
as you would an apple, regardless of
the sections. This leaves the seeds,
tough. stringy part and most OF the
inner skin together. and Is a much
less tedious process than removing the
skin by sections. Use a very sharp
knife. SO as to make clean cuts and not
crush the fruit.
The preparation Of oranges as dessert
is so well understood that recipes are
almost superf1uous along this line. but
an orange cmelet is not so common.
The proportions are three eggs. three
tablespoonfuls of sifted sugar. the
grated rind of one orange and three
tablespoonfuls of the juice. Beat the
yolks of the eggs and the sugar to a
cream, add the grated rind and the
orange juice. and then stir In the
whites of the eggs. which have been
beaten to a foam. Into pan over the
fire put a tablespoonful of butter. and
when this bubbles pour the mixture In
and spread it evenly. Do not disturb
the pan. but let it cook quietly until
done without being hard. Fold in at
the edges apd after turning it on to a
hot dish sprinkle literally with pow
dered sugar.

For Those Who Like Sach@fs

taste that prefers the odor of fresh
air and real flowers to the most expen-

never have a better chance.

squares of satin or silk, that come in

sachets are sold in little boxes as dainty
as themselves. One variation shows four
tiny velour flowers on one corner of each
sachet. These flowers are made in a
dark color-a deep red ON a rose satin
sachet. for instance, or an odd, deep
green on pale blue.
Delightful sachets are filled with I'M
usual odors. They are made of knitted
silk fabric. and are long and narrow,
with fringed ends. One. for instance.

verse about the scent is written. and
the little verses and daintily decorated
cards add to the daintiness of the
Sachets.

satin roses, each set in rOsette of imi-

the most artistic and pleasing dis
plays of new spring millinery now
showing in the Kennebec valley. The
new suit hats. samll, tailored and snug
fitting are shown in many varieties,
made in styles and materials to match
spring suits.
The dress hats are larger and as a
rule have more flowers than for sew
eral previous seasons, although rib
bons and other adornments are there
if required. AS at the other millinery
openings the trimming appears to be
principally underneath and the effect
is most pelasing. The new Tower

vogue the present season. These are
verifying in height. The edict from Paris
this season calls for the wearing of
tho hats upon one side, thus giving
display OF the couture. Several new
colors are shown this season, the new
yellows predominating, being very
showy. Among the new colors are
