Formula for Rose Beads.

1T am going to try to join your Cor ner, as have read it for some time and think it Is grand. I saw that some one wanted the recipe for making rose beads and the one I send is the real rose recipe: Gather one gallon of roses

Grind them six or seven times in little sausage grinder so that the result Is fine. Spread the dough out on a piece of iron or old tina piece of old rusty stovepipe will GO. Let he leaves remain there about thirty-six hours, then grind them again three or four times. and roll the, pulp into round balls a little larger than you wish the bead to be when completed.

Her Pet Theorv.

would like to say to the Cornerite who asks if one should settle bills inn mediately or run an account that I would like to advise all most emphat- icaly never to get into debt. It may not be half as inconvenient to you to pay as you buy as it is to the other fellow to have to wait for his money. I con- sider going into debt dishonest. One has no right to buy what she has not the money to pay for at once. This is a pet theory of mine, and l feel sure l can never change my ideas about it.

Canned Pimento Peppers.

Can you tell me how to can pimento peppers? Can they be canned in glass fruit jars? Also I would like to know if asparagus can be canned by the same method? NJ. s. H."
 Asparagus is easily canned. The best way is to put it in glass jars with the woody parts down. cutting away first all the hardest and most useless por- tions of the stalks. Fill the cans with water, set them in boiler on a wooden rack or on straw. pour water about them until it reaches nearly to the tops of the jars and bring slowly to boil continu- ing it at this for fifteen minutes after the boil is reached. If any of the water in the jars evaporates it should be re- placed with boiling water from the ket- tie so that the jars are filled to over- flowing. The tops of the cans must then be clamped on while the contents are at the hottest and set away in the dark. I am sorry that I cannot give an equally good recipe for canning pimentoes or peppers. Will not some one of our wise housekeepers supply the deficiency? It will give me pleasure to print it here for the benefit of all.

 So many and such varied interests are represented in the Corner that venture to hope that these books may be forth coming. It is natural that an invalid whose loved ones have all preceded her to the next world should be interested in works that deal with that future to- wards which she is looking.

Wedding Breahfast Menu.

"I am going to be married soon. Will you please suggest a menu for the we'd ding breakfast. The wedding is to be at o'clock in the morning and we expect to leave about noon. so the breakfast will be really our dinner, too. l would h-ve something not too elaborate, if you please, with chicken or turkey. Also would gray shoes and gloves be in good taste to wear with my suit of dark blue, in which I shall be married? B."
 The wedding breakfast can be as elab- crate or as simple as you please. If you wish you can begin with soup, chicken broth, following this with chick en or sweetbread croquettes or oysters in some form, and then after this have a salad. If you have not used the chicken before a salad of this will be excellent. Or you may have creamed chicken or turkey. or cold chicken CT turkey, and a celery and apple salad. With this should be served sandwiches or rolls. Ice cream will come next and cake and coffee. If you had told me how many guests you wish to serve l could give more explicit instructions. When the party is to be small and made up of the family and intimate friends simpler menu is feasible than is desir- able when there is large gathering For the former hot roast turkey or broiled or fried or roast chicken will anwser, with rolls and salad. and you can even have . dish of fancifully

 Wedding Ceremony Without Ring. "Will you please answer this ques- ton? When a girl has diamond en- gagement ring and there is to be no ring ceremony at the wedding, should sh, be presented with a wedding ring al.o. and if so, when? An answer by mail would be much appreciated
 "S A. P.' AS no Sldulp W do lliGlOSSQ lOi IGplyb al answer by mail was not sent, but l trust this statement will come in time An engagement ring does not take the place of wedding rns and the latter is practically invariable, so far as my information goes. I would not say, as l have heard others do. that I would not feel married if the ceremony were not performed with ring. but the ring is undoubtedly a sign of the bond, and I would be uncomfortable if 1 did not have one. Should the marriage take place without one, however, the hus- band can buy one and place it on his wife's finger even if this is not dcne under the auspices of a clergyman l think it would be interesting to ascer- tain if there are many marriage cere- monies performed in which the ring is no used. Can readers enlighten us on this?
