RIPE RASPBERRIES! NEW WAYS
TO PREPARE THEM--
BY Caroline Coe
The following recipe has been used
many generations in an old southern
home and the preserves are cOnsid-
cred the. finest in the country. The
"old nanny" told me-''yOU all have
to pick the berries fresh-mind now,
not to pick them just after a rain.
We who are not fortunate enough to
be able to pick our berries from the
bushes must be able to pick" firm,
dry ones from the market or grocery.
If we follow mammy's advice we will
not wash the berries.
TayIor's Raspberry Preserves
Heat the jars to be used, either by
steaming them or by placing them in
the oven on several thicknesses of
paper or cloth. When very. hot wrap
jar with cloth wTung from hot water
and fill the jar with raspberries.
Turn in as much boiling water as
the can will hold, seal and let stand
ten minutes. Then take off covers
and place a strainer or cloth over
top of can. Drain off all the water
and fill can with very heavy boiling
hot syrup and seal. Wrap can with
brown paper to preserve color. Set
away in a cool, dry place.

GERMAN .AlRMEN
 ATTEMPT TO LEAD
 ENEMY INTO LINES
Prefer Battling Over Own Camps Because of Its
 Many Advantages.

London, Nov. 26-German air stra-- egy has changed since last May, when, for a period of some months, few Ger man aeroplanes appeared near the al- lied line on the western front, but the latest reports from Sir John French show that more than 200 air battles. have been fought recently with the British aviators, by whom sixteen Ger
 man aeroplanes were brought down These included several new types be- sides the familiar Taube.
 < The. new types the Germans have been experimenting with are modeled on the batt1eplane idea One of these was big heavily armed bip1ane with twin bodies and two or three engines. But 1t did not seem to be entirely sue cessfu1. and it was rather slow and unwieldy. Next to appear were two very similar, biplanes of the ordinary tractor type with single but very pow erful engines The two used to chase up and down the German lines at ter rife speed and with an unusual amount of noise, apparently to fright en away British airmen. Apparently they impressed the Germans as useful, as more of the same type made their appearance. Machine guns fore and aft, the range of the, first limited by the propeller and the after gun hav- ing a, clear field in an upward direc- tion. gave them a, certain formidable ness as scouts. Several of these were brought down by both British and French, but their numbers have con- tinued to increase of late. They keep largely to their own lines which seems seems to be the German plan of air strategy.
 The German plan is obviously to ides troy the greatest number of enemy aeroplanes with a, minimum loss to themselves. They do this by enticing the foe over their own lines. It is an immense advantage to fight an ad- versary over one's own lines. as the airn1an not only has the support of high angle guns below but can land within his own territory in case of injury to himself of his machine.

LONDON GAZETTE
 CELEBRATING ITS
 25OTH BIRTHDAY
Most Austere of All English Newspapers Has Limited
 Circulation.

1 London. Nov 26-Thet London Ga zette, the most austere and formal of all English newspapers, is this month celebrating its 250th birthday.
 The vast majority of Londoners have never seen.-the Gazette, and many live in ignorance even of the existence of such a newspa per. For 1t is the official organ of the British government, and it's circulation is limited to official circles or to those who are willing to pay the fixed price of twenty-five cents per copy.
 In the ordinary course of events, the Gazette is published every Tues day and Friday, but when occasion arises special supplements are issued at eight cents each Since the out break of the war several of these supplements have been issued each week. and there has occasionally been suffic cient demand from relatives of those mentioned in the official dis patches to demand the reprindng of a particular edition. I
 s"Gazetted'' is an expression fre- uuently used in England to designate that some official statement or ac< tion has received the formal sane ton implied 4oy publication in the gov ernment's newspaper. The Gazette is in many cases prescribed by par1ia- m entary enactment as the appropriate me dil11n for announcements Sof official acts and appointments. Though the man; in the street rarelyAsees. the Ga zette, he frequently reads it's an louncements indirectly, for most of it's valuable official information is immediately reproduced in the daily newspapers.
 The earliest issue of the official journal goes back to the reign of Charles I, but there is little diver sity Of opinion as. to the exact date. Some authorities give it as November T, 1865, while others favor November 14 of the same year. IA
 There are similar publications for Scotland and Ireland, published re specttvely in Edinburgh and Dublin. The former was first issued in 1890, and the latter in 1711
