other class OF educated men or

teacher, who after graduating
from the high school spends from
one to two years in the State

preparing himself, and has been
teaching five years in the public
schools, with the bOokkeeper

has only spent from three TO six
months in obtaining his educa-
ton after graduating from high
school, and from one hundred to

der and one-half teaspoonful salt.

stirring constantly; then add the

ing a new iron special care must be
taken in the greasing, or waffles will
stick.
Maple Wax-This delicious candy is
made in sugar camps by boiling down
the maple-sap as it comes from the
trees and dropping the candy on snow
to harden. Maple wax may be made
at home by putting two cupfuls Of
maple molasses to cook in a granite
or porcelain saucepan. Cook about
twenty minutes until it forms soft
ball when dropped in cold water.
Have plates Of snow in readiness, and
when you take the candy from the
snow. Maple wax should be eaten
fresh, just as soon as it is cool.

graduated sugar, one-half cupful of
maple molasses, one-half cupful of
milk, one heaping tablespoonful of
butter. Cook all together in a gran
tie OF porcelain vessel for fifteen min
utes, or until il fol- fAs a soft ball when
dropped into cold water. Take from
the stove, beat hard for three min
utes; pour on buttered plates; mark
into squares before il hardens, and
set in a cool place until ready to
be eaten.
