e. c. CARL has just returned from a
trip to his old home in Buxton where
he was for several days engaged in
experimenting some improvements
which he has been making in his plant
for putting up canned goods, which i'm
provements included the charging Of
the plant. He has installed two new
kettles which will hold 1850 cans of
corn each, and 40-horsepower boiler,
and also a sanitary can closing ma
chine. by the use of which the whole
top of the can goes on without the
use of solder. Mr.. CARL, who cans
the Golden Bantam corn almost exclu-
sively, has orders enough at present to
can enough of this corn on the cob to
make four carloads, or about Is tons.
He also cans string beans, cranberry
beans. squash, etc, but corn is his
speciality. The factory is now in first
class condition and busy season is
anticipated.

1t will probably be some little time
before the spring trout fishing at Cob
bosseecontee and other lakes in this
section opens, but Augusta fishermen
are now looking forward to the annual
sport of dipping smelts, particularly
from the Barton brook because these
fish run larger in that brook than in
some of the other brooks in this vi
cinity. These fish run during the
month of April and particularly on the
full of the moon. and are considered by
many much sweeter than the sea smelt.

WRAPPING THE GIFTS.

Are you among the fortunate
number who have completed
their Christmas purchases and
have them all neatly and dainti-
ly wrapped and labeled and
placed in a large box or draw
er to await the proper moment
when they are to be started on
their way by mail, messenger
or, perchance, personal delivery?
If you are not, what are you do
ing with the little gift which
you purchase or complete each
day and add to the growing pile?
Are you carefully wrapping each
one after inclosing a pretty
Christmas greeting card with
soft white or gayly decorated
Christmas paper? One cannot
help but feel that those little
remembrances which are re-
ceived, all thoughtfully and ar.
tistically wrapped with a bit OF
holly or poinsettia paper and
bound with red, green, white or
holly ribbon and choicely lab

eled and sealed with the num-
erous attractive little stickers
which come for this purpose,
mean more in their detail Of
taste and care than all the hand
some and wonderful gifts which
time and money can produce
without these final touches.
Then make the offering as sim
pie and inexpensive as you
choose, but if you would convey
to your friend an atmosphere Of
thought and remembrance take
a little time each day to COM
plete the arrangement for each
friend before laying it aside
with the other gifts. Not only
will the preparation of the gifts
take on additional interest to
you, but it will make the last
days of hustle and excitement
less arduous, and then, too, you
will not be piling into the post
office or the express Office all
! your various bundles at one
time, but will be prepared to
start many of them on their way
in advance Of the last rush and
thus avoid the often inevitable
delay which means belated greet
ings and, worse than all, pack
ages which give the appearance
of hasty arrangements and lack
of thought.

CHRISTMAS GRATITUDE.
A Christmas Sermon by Rev
Billy Sunday; Gratitude
The Inspiration.

Nineteen hundred years ago a
star poised above a lowly man
ger in Bethlehem, and above the
moonlit hills of Judea the an
gels heralded the beginning OF
the life of Jesus Christ upon
this earth. And once more the
birthday of the Saviour ap-
proaches.
How fast these festal days
follow one another! Only a few
days ago | was penning a
Thanksgiving day message. Now
we are looking forward with
happy hearts and bright antici-
pations to Christendom's great
gift-giving day.
Gratitude inspires in us the
grace of giving.
Gratitude is the great orig
inal source of noble living and
service, just as sin is the orig
inal source and root of all sell
fishness. The great all-seelng
eye of God, as it surveys this
planet, with all its scenes OF
revelry and its riot Of sin, be-
holds but one fostering ulcer
selfishness-and gazes upon one
thing Of great beauty-gratitude
which recognizes in every need
of man the voice of God.
The immortal Frances r. Will
lard said: II regard ingratitude
as one of the basest Of sins.
The Psalmist said: what
shall l render unto the Lord for
all his goodness to me-" Then
answers his own question by
saying: 81 will take the cup OF
salvation and call upon the name
of the Lord"
Never before have we so serl-
ously faced the question OF oul
obligation to Almighty God
There are thousands of heavy.
hearted, world-worried men ano
women who will never find life
worth living until their lives are
linked with Jesus Christ.
There is no safety save in ser
vice. We must use or lose. The
Dead sea gives nothing out, a1le
that's why it is dead. Many

lives are like the Dead sea. If
you would have the joy Of
Christmas, you must find it in
doing what Jesus did. He went
about doing good. No one will
ever find the Christian secret Of
a happy life save by trying to
make it easier for others to dc
right and harder to do wrong.
There is poy in lifting any
burdens of others, as the little
girl found it who was carrying
her baby brother across the
street. He was almost as big
as she was.
isn't he heavy?" asked a
passer-by.
ooh, no; he's my brother
You cannot be a Christian
without being a good fellow in
the sense Of trying to help 9TH
ers to be good, or, as someone
has put it, Except you erect
the cross in your own heart
Jesus will profit you nothing.
10 Holy Shild of Bethlehem,
Descend on us, we pray;
Cast out our sin and enter in;
Be born in us today.

Here is the recipe One pound of powdered loaf sugar. one teacup of water. a quarter of pound of butter, six drops of essence of lemon. Put the water and sugar in a pan: beat the butter to cream. When the sugar is dissolved add the butter and keep stirring the mixture over the fire until it hardens when a little Is tried. Just before the candy is done add the essence. Butter scotch Is made from brown sugar instead of white, omit ting the water, and flavoring with half an ounce of powdered ginger. It Is made in the same manner as toffee. H. C."

This is my first attempt to write to
 the Corner. although l have read it for a good while and always wished that I could answer some of the many appeals.
 There was one which l particularly wished to answer from a woman living in the country who appreciated all na- lures beauty but was lonely for few pie lures to make her little home bright. I had more pictures than l could possibly use at that time, but my mother was ill for eight or nine weeks after that and l simply neglected it. I am sorry to say I have no pictures now for the reason that we lost our house by fire few weeks ago. I am going to ask the Cor nerite who has the magazines for a year to send them to me. I would appreciate them greatly, as l lost all mine and miss the recipes and particularly the many pretty and interesting fancy work de- signs in them It Is little discouraging to begin over again, as l had so much fancy work finished or nearly finished.

and a tablespoon of minced parsley. The rice is then turned into a pudding dish, couple of tablespoons of grated cheese strewed over the top, and on this broken as many eggs as will lie side by side without crowdlng one another Salt and pepper are sprinkled over these and tablespoon of butter cut up into small bits, the dish Is set in the oven and left there until the eggs are set. It Is served at once in the dish in which the cooking was done.
 EGGS WITH CHEESE.
 Cook together two tablespoons of but ter and two of flour until they bubble. pour upon them two cups of milk and stir until the sauce is smooth and thick; add to this four tablespoons of grated cheese. Pour into a shallow pudding dish; break on the sauce as many eggs as will go there easily; set the dish in the oven after sprinkling the eggs with salt and pepper, and bake until the eggs are firm. Serve at once. Eight minutes in a hot oven should be enough
 STUFFED PEPPERS.
 Cut green peppers in half lengthwise or cut off the stem end; remove the seeds WlLn a spoon or lOI hJ IdhluS CdIc IOI lO touch them with the fingers. Lay the peppers in cold water for quarter of an hour, drain and dry them Make force meat of half cup of bread crumbs and half a cup of minced meat of any kind Ham, tongue, or chicken is especially good, but other kinds will answer. Sea son we'll with a little onion juice, minced herbs, parsley, salt. and pepper, and soften with melted butter or little good gravy. Fill the peppers with this mix ture, lay them side by side in a baking pan, pour cup of gravy or soup stock about them set the pan in the oven and bake covered for fifteen minutes. Un- cover and brown. Serve on hot dish Instead of the bread crumbs boiled rice may be mixed with the meat.
 STUFFED TOMATOES
 The filling for these may be prepared In the same way as for stuffed peppers The tomatoes must not be peeled, but should have a slice cut off the top and the pulpy inside scooped out, with care not to break the outside covering of the tomato. Tomatoes of uniform size should be selected. little salt should be sprinkled on the inside of the tomatoes before putting in the filling. They may be baked precisely as directed for stuffed peppers. The inside of the to- rlatoes may either be mixed with the stuff1ng to soften it. In place of gravy, or may be put aside to use as foundation for sauce or soup. or may be added to a soup already made.
 PEPPERS STUFFED WITH RICE.
 Prepare the banners as for studpo and have ready two cups of boiled rice. Make cup of tomato sauce by cooking together tablespoon each of butter and flour and pouring upon 1t a large cup of tomato liquor, either strained iron,
