Dear Mrs. Thompson: A while
ago / received a letter from a very
dear friend He asked me to go TO
a certain place with him and told
me 10 let him know If 1 would go.
l did not let him know anything
about it.
DO you think I did right, OF ought
I to apologize? He is motherless
and is very bashful.
Last spring / asked him to quit
swearing. He did for a while but
began again, but he doesn't swear
as much as he used to. Do you
think he cares anything for me? I

For a while this summer he
wouldn't speak, but he started
again. For two or three week.
now he hasn't spoken. Do yurA
think he is angry at me-
WORRIED.
Most invitations call for an an
swer. You certainly should have
told the boy at once that you were
not going with him. I think 1t
would be all right to write him a
short note and explain that you are
sorry for your rudeness-
l do not blame him for not
speaking. He probably likes you
or he would not have invited you
to go with him the time you ignored
his invitation.

Boiled Cider Hints.

DSAAON SAuCI LlAAo~
When the apple crop is abund-
ant and a large quantity of cider
is obtainable, the housekeeper will
find it to her advantage to put up
a generous amount OF boiled cider.
Boiled cider greatly improves the
favor of mincemeant, and it can be
used at any time of the year to
make cider apple sauce.
Cider for boiling must be perfect
ly fresh and sweet Put in a large.
open preserving kettle and boil un-
til reduced one-half. Skim fire.
quently while boiling. Do not have
the kettle more than two-thirds
full When the cider has boiled
until it is fairly thick put in bot
ties, cans or stone jars which have
been thoroughly boiled.
Old Fashioned Cider Apple Sauce
Put eight quarts of pared, quar-
tered and cored sweet apples in a
large preserving kettle and cover
with five quarts of boiled cider.
Cook slowly until the apples are
tender and clear.
To prevent burning of the ap-
pies, place the kettle on an ashes
tos mat. 1t will require from two
to three hours to cook the apples
II you find it necessary to stir the
sauce be very careful to break the
apple as little as possible. When
the sauce is cooked put 1t in ster-
iliZed jars.
If the apples have lost much OF
their flavor and acidity, an appetiz-
ing sauce can be made by stewing
them with diluted cider, using one
cup Of cider to three OF water.
Cooking pears may be preserved
in boiled cider the same as sweet
