Pear Butter.

rear butter.
Pear butter is made like the apple
butter without cider. The pears
should be ripe enough to cook up
we'll. After being peeled they are
cored and sliced, put in a preserving
kettle with little water, and cooked
sliwly until soft. The sugar is then
| added, cup to | quart of sliced
pears, and cooking is continued
very slowly, with frequent stirring,
for w to 2 hours. The butter
should then be smooth and of the
consistency of thick apple sauce. A
little lemon juice, with ginger, Gin
namon, or other spices to taste,
should be we'll stirred into the hot
butter. Pack while hot in hot boiled
containers and process with steam
as directed for apple butter.
Peach Butter.
Place the peaches in wire basket
and dip them in boiling water few
seconds until the skin slips-test by
raising the fruit out of the water and
rubbing the skin between the fin
gers. Dip the peaches into cold wa
ter, peel and pit them. Well-ripened
freestone varieties are best. Mash
the pulp and cook it in it's own juice
without adding water. If it is rather
coarse put it through a colander or
coarse wire sieve to make butter
of fine texture. To each measure of
pulp add a half measure of sugar,
cook slowly and stir frequently I'M
til the product is of the desired
thickness. The meats of several pits
may be cooked either whole or
sliced in each gallon of butter.
While still hot pack in processed
jars or glasses with tight fitting tops
and process like apple butter or
cover with hot paraffin.
Garfield Butter.
Take two-t thirds plums and one
third peaches. Pare, pit and slice
the peaches, and if the plums are
freestones remove the pits. Cook
the peaches and plums together
slowly until soft and rub through a
colander or coarse sieve. If the
plums are clingstone the pits are re-
moved by this operation. To each
measure of pulp add three-fourths of
a measure of sugar, cook slowly and
stir often until of the right thick

NE business men OF Fourteenth

Presbyterians Deny
Proselyting in France
Seek to Assist Needy Protes'
tants, Not Build Up
Fallen Church

DR.. William Hiram Foulkes, general
secretary of the Presbyterian New Era
Movement, which is spending S25O,OOO
this year among the Protestant bodies
in devastated France and Belgium, re-
piled yesterday to the charge that this
money was to be used for the purposes
of proselyting.
"In view of the attack of high officials
of the Roman Catholic Church. stating
that our aim is to Protestantize France,
he said, at is proper for me to reaffirm
the definite purpose of the Presbyterian
General Assembly's committee, which is
not to build up fallen church in France,
but to assist all the needy Protestant
churches of France that are already
there, and that have as much right to
existence and support as has the Roman
Catholic or any other church.
"To read into this worthy and broad
minded humanitarian service sec
tartan purpose and hostile attitude
toward any other church is entirely
unjustified 1t is an interesting theory
although it is very ancient, that the
mere carrying on of Presbyterian
Christianity is an attack upon Roman
Catholicism.
1.-The Roman Catholic Church has
every right to support it's work abroad
by the gifts of it's adherents in Amer
ica, although it was not permitted to
include several millions Of dollars for
the reconstruction of Roman Catholic
churches of Europe in the recent wal
drive The Protestant churches have
not alone the same right, but they have
also the responsibility to propagate
those conceptions Of religion which are
not nearly parallel to the moral issue
for which America stood in the recent
warD
