happy children.
Now. because they all loved the
princess, the children had brought her
gifts. Not because they thought she
would expect pres nts. for they knew
well enough she would not, and more
than that. they knew she would be
gritved Il she thought they felt they
must bring one.
So each child had brought some
thing that grew in his garden, or
something he had made. This made

that love had prompted them all.
There was one little girl. however,
that was so poor she had no garden,

her 10 make wonderful dolls out Of

girl. be she princess or pauper, loved
doll. Lotta made one for the prin-

Lolita, too, knew how TO sew. for
her grandmother had taught her
many things that could be done with
a needle. SO the doll was dressed in
clothes with dainty needlework upon
them. the cloth having been an old
petticoat her mother had worn when
a girl. for there was no money e

With fear and trembling that her

right at the table Can you give me n
recipe for it?'
Answer: 1t is perfectly correct to

assumed that the housekeepcr would
serve one OF these with her salad on
Thanksgiving Day. But there is another
very delicious fruit salad dressing
which, | have no doubt, was the one
60 which YOU refer This very special
kind is a good deal of trouble TO prepare
but we'll worth the effort:
Whipped Cream Salad Dressing;
Drain the liquor from l can OF pine
apple and also from can of peaches.
Put this liquor in the top of double
boiler (thcre should be Il cup of each
kind and add TO it Il cup of lemon

sugar; let boil three minutes with the
boiler-top placed directly on the range.

may be served with any kind of fruit,
but is perhaps most delicious on pear
saiads.)
Anxious: q have spilled some black
liquid shoe polish on a tan velour
dress Can you recommend something
10 take out this stain?'
Answer: Rub lard we'll into the spot
then wash with soap and warm water
Repeat this treatment until the stain
is removed. But | would advise you
10 experiment with small sample OF
the dress-goods before working on the
dress itself Put little of the same
shoe-pohsh on the sample, let dry
then try to remove it as above directed
If you succeed without injury to the
color you may feel safe in going ahead

made by cut glass on a Walnut buffet

cause it contains dye or stain enough
70 darken the wood which has been
