Table Talks
Recipes
Candied Grapefruit Peel.
By Mildred Kitchen

Remove peeling in quarters. Weigh
it. Immerse in a generous quantity
Of water and boil for at least an
hour, or until the bitter has been re-
moved, changing the water every 10
minutes. Drain quite well.
To every pound of peeling prepare
a syrup with three cups of sugar aud
two cups of water. Cook peel in this
till syrup practically disappears,
though one must be careful toward the
last not to let it burn. Drain on
wire rack or waxed paper. Cut into
strips with scissors and roll in con-
fectioner's sugar or granulated sugar.
Variations-Color the syrup. Cut
into fancy shapes. Candy entire
halves of grapefruit and fill with
fancy shapes.
FIGS AND WALNUTS.
Steam figs till soft enough to
shape. Press a walnut half on each
side to initiate walnut cream.
CHOCOLATE RAISINS.
Stuff large ruisins with nuts and
dip in chocolate. They are good roll
ed in powdered sugar also.
SPICE NUTS.
One cup sugar.
One-quarter cup water.
One-half teaspoon cream OF tartar.
One and one-half teaspoon vanilla.
One and one-half cups walnuts.
Boil first four ingredients to firm
ball stage (24S) or when it makes a
solid ball between your fingers. Cool
slightly, add nuts and vanilla and
beat until nuts fall apart.
GLACE FRUIT.
Any fruit may be used. See that
they are firm and unbroken. Fresh
fruits may be cooked just till tender
and then drained. Canned peaches,
apricots, pineapple, cherries, figs and
prunes give excellent results.
THE SYRUP.
Prepare twice as much syrup as
you have fruit to crystalize.
Proportion One cup of light karo
syrup to each two cups of water OF
fruit juice. Bring to boiling point
and pour over the fruit which is in
stone, glass or earthenware crock.
Place plate on to keep fruit from
floating.
Let stand "a hours. Pour off the
syrup. Measure it and to every four
cups of liquid add one-half cup gram
ulated sugar. Bring to boil. Pour
over the fruit and let stand "a hours.
Repeat at least six times in all. Let
fruit stay in the syrup one week.
Then drain fruit on coarse wire
screen or rack for five to seven days
in a good circulation of air, but pro-
tected from dirt. Cheese cloth is n
satisfactory covering. Turn the fruit
occasionally.
BY this method the fruit retains its
natural color and flavor, for it is
never cooked.

LISTEN, WORLD!
Strength of Chivalry
BY ELSIE ROBINSON

when a man and a woman are
alone for two hours or more the infer
ence is reasonable that they are not
there to say their prayers"
No, this fragrant bit Of philosophy
did not originate in harem-like Tur-
key, or a marriage mart in darkest
Africa or the yoshiwara Of Japan. This
little nosegay came right from our 100
per cent Pure America. The Ameri-
cana department of The American
Mercury November issue) discovered
it in the columns of The Mirror. And
nothing could more nptly state our
national attitude toward Ladies and
Gents.
Are we not the most chivalrous
country in the world toward our wom-
en-?
Sure! Show us anyone who says we
aren't.
Do we not have suffrage, and vast
amounts of other progressive legisla-
ton for the Missis?
We do.
Are we not always yeeping about the
wonderful Record OF The Pilgrim and
Pioneer Mothers?
We are.
De we not lynch negroes and lam
small boys for being rude to the femi-
nine sex?
We do-indeed we do.
And aren't we willing to sock any,
one in the eye who lntimates that the
American woman isn't the purest, mob
est, brainiest work Of God?
We are.

ity between the sexes, but when 1t
comes to leaving them alone together
nothing doing!
Which goes to prove that despite
our progressive gestures, we Ameri-
cans are still doing most of our think
ing way back in 300 B. c.
Our protests of chivalry are the
bunk. We don't believe a word we
say.
Nine-tenths of us still believe that
women are either too loose or too
idiotic to protect their morals when
left alone with men. And we have
only ribald jeers for the notion that
men and women may have other inter-
ests in common save those of sex.
All of which is most disgusting and
we ought to be ashamed of ourselves.
In this modern world, men and
women have a thousand interests in
common save those of sex. 1t is pos
sible for them to spend two hours to-
gether, or two days together, or two
years together without yearning to
bust the seventh commandment.
1t is possible for a woman to have a
strong and inspiring friendship with a
man whom she would, under no cir
cumstances, marry.
1t is possible for man to seek and
depend upon the fine companionship
of q woman whom he could, under no
circumstances, love or desire for a
mate.
1t is also possible for men and wom-
en- to work together without passion
who could love each other or, under
other circumstances marry each other.
Don't they feel drawn to each
other?"
OF course they feel drawn to each
other. But the decent, busy, intelli-
gent male or female citizen of this
world has learned to control quite q
number of Inconvenience urges, includ-
ing those of love.
These facts are true, as thousands
Of fine men and women can attest
Yet the great majority will still Hope
For the Worst when a IMAM and o
woman are alone for two hours OF
more

than the purity" of ignorant, narrow,

Woman may be the "talkative sex"
but, once he gets STARTED, man
holds the record as a Marathon talk
err!
A woman may talk faster and often
er and may crowd more WORDS into
n lifetime, than n man does. But,
for a long-distance monologue, man
has her beaten, every time! 1t takes
two women to talk as long Mt stretch
as one perfectly normal man.
You can side-track woman's chat
ter, just by telling her that her nose
is shiny or that you smell something
burning. But, once man starts out
to tell a story, or to prove" some
thing, or to "advise" you about some
thing, nothing can turn him from his
course, except an earthquake or chlo'
reform.
You may shout to him that he's on
fire, and he will merely brush away
the sparks, pick up the thread of his
theme, and go right on TALKING
You may spill hot coffee on his knees,
or drop ice down his collar; but you
can't wreck his train of argument OF
make him skip a word.
A woman talks. just to talk" She
talks to "be entertaining"-and she

The Shepherd of Banbury was the
pseudonym taken by John Claridge in
publishing, in 1744, his noted collec-
ton of rules for predicting weather
changes. The book achieved immedi-
ate popularity and had many editions.
Nicolo Zeno, a Venetian explorer, is
said to have visited Greenland, New
foundand and the coast of North
America in the fourteenth century.
The story of his discoveries, with a
map, was first published in 1868.
The first thorough survey Of the
great Niagara Falls was made in 1764
by Captain John Montressor, of the
Royal Engineers. The second was
made rs years later, by James Hall,
for New York State.
The Torrey pine, a dwarfish tree
peculiar to California is known as the

2. Are benzoic acid and benzoate Of
soda injurious when used in food as
a preventative?
3. Were the bees found native in
America the same as those Of Eu-
ropean countries?
4. Is there any reason why aspen
trees rustic more than other trees
do?
5. Is there any way to get out old
paint stains?
Answers to these questions may
be found -.
1. No. Washing soda and lye in
the water have a tendency to yellow
clothes, especially if they are no
thoroughly rinsed.
2. Yes. According to a government
bulletin, benzoic acid and benzoate o.
soda cause a distinct loss in weight
and are deleterious in food and al
foods in which these substances arr
used as preservatives could be pre-
served without them.
3. No. The native bees of the West

Apiaries of these stingless bees wert
kept in Peru as early as 1900.

Any one of these ordinations from
a woman is a tribute that no man
outside of q deaf-and-dumb asylum
can resist. 1t will brighten up the
dullest evening and make a man Won
der where you have been all his life!
Even a foolish woman knows
enough to laugh at a mans joke, but
it's n diplomat or a siren who knows
enough to hang onto his coat-lape
and beg him to "Tell it again."
Why does a woman ever waste sc
much breath and energy in talking
anyhow? No man ever listens Il
what a woman has to say. Her con-
versation is like a door swinging in
the wind-just an annoying little in
terruption.
That's why lots Of brilliant, poppy
