The dough for these rolls should be made shorter and richer than for baking powder biscuit; 1t should be mixed a little stiffer. and it should be rolled thin as for fruit pie crust. They require an oven hot enough to bake them quickly. but thoroughly. Dried peaches and apriccts are better than the fresh fruits. PruneS. dates, cher ries and raisins make delicious rolls.
 Sauce for Fruit Rolls: Cream and sugar are good to serve with most of these fruit rolls. Amy sauce that par and sWeeteued according to the sweet ness or acidity of the fruit in the roll will be more wholesome and more pleasing to most tastes.
 Do not add fayOTing extract of any kind to fruit or sauce except. perhaps, Q little lemon or orange juice.
 Apple Butter Roll: Make a rich crust as for pies, roll out in small pieces and spread the apple butter, ever them thinlv and roll up. Bake g light brown or fry in deep fat 4 few chopped raiSins added to the ap- pie butter will give a delicious flavor Dumpings: Dessert dumplings do not A4AlGi iLucIl LIciI the fOiIS except In shape. Round as a dUmpling, plump as a roll. Fruit dumplings may be baked, steamed or boiled. They are often steamed in cups, and when boiled should be tied up in foured muslin. Baked dumplings may have shortened crUsts. but boiled dump ling dough should be composed of nothing but flour baking powder. salt ana sweet milk. This is for the young cook, probably most all experienced cooks know this.
 Dumpiings for Stews: Mix two cups flour, one teaspoon baking pow der, one third teaspoon salt. Add milk to thick batter. Drop by spoonfuls over boiling stew and cook twenty minutes without opening pot.
 Baked Cabbage; Cut the cabbage in pieces. and boil till tender in s5ite5 water. When cold chop fine. add two beaten eggs, g little butter, pepper and salt, and two tablespoons of cream. Stir together and bake till brown in q buttered dish. Serve hot.

 Dreamer: I have been thinking 50 much of Midje. She certainly has q mind of her own: self-willed to a large degree. Perhaps she needs a widower to keep her in check. He may profit by the experience he had with his first wife. I think it would be better if the clergyman was not 50 generous. There may be no harIr=~in it, but it does not look well, and his age and experience should tell him so. His generosity will create a love with in Midje for these things and if she marries the widower and he can not give them to her she will become very dissatisfied As to the relatives.
