cIean Clothes Before Packing
AqCay for Winter; More Hints

mace pipes are cleaned out, ana
that there is no rubbish near the
fire. A great many fires are start
ed in waste piles which have ac-
cumulated during the sumner near
the furnace or heating pipes.
Faulty flues should be repaired %
eliminate the danger of fire from
that source.
1t is time, too, to see about eff
ficient door mats and foot-scrap-
pers, so that muddy, wet feet will
not spoil the floors inside.
Jrss to be prepared, it viii be
wise to have look at the storm
windows to see that they are in
good condition and ready to be put
up when the screens come down.
Weather stripping, too, will be
needed in some cracks and crevices
that let the wind whistle in last
winter.
We needn't mention coal and
wood, for the fuel companies are
doing their bit along that line. 1t
isn't out of place, however, to say
that bulbs and perennial ported
plants should be taken and NOV
ed before a killing frost has a
chance to nip them.
That's about enough good advice
for while. No doubt you can
think of other things that should
be attended to at this time of the
year. 1t gives one pleasant ex-
hilirated feeling to know that
everything is snug and ship-shape
for the cold days.

EDNA VESTS WEEKLY

A good relish to be served
with meats can be made from
concord grapes. Those that have
not tried it, have a treat In
store. Two recipes are given, the
first made with grapes alone
will have the stronger grape
flavor.
Grape Ketchup, No. 1
Cook ripe grapes until soft,
using no water. Rub the grapes
through colander. To every
pound of pulp allow 3-4 pound
of sugar and LIZ cup vinegar.
Boil grapes, vinegar until quite
thick, then add the sugar and
boil five minutes. A small bag
of mixed whole spice such as
cinnamon, allspice and cloves,
should be added and left long
enough in the boiling mixture
to secure the desired spicy fla
vor. Seal.
Grape Ketchup No. 2
4 lbs. grapes
2 IBIS. white sugar
1-2 tsp. salt
2 tsp. allspice
l ID. tart apples
/ LIZ cups vinegar
2 tbsp. cinnamon
2 tsp. cloves
Wash grapes, remove from
the stems and cook until soft.
Cook the apples until they are
tender. Put the fruit through
sieve, add the other ingredients
to the pulp and simmer the mix
ture 20 minutes. Seal in clean
hot jars or bottles.
The spices used In both rec
ipes should be whole and should
be tied in a cloth while cooking
in order that they may be re-
moved before the ketchup is
sealed. Ground spice may be
used in the proportion Of about
one-fourth the amount Of the
whole spices, but they give the
product a darker color.

BOY. HIT WITH Stone
LOSES SUIT FOR $1,000
Continued from First Pagel

fy the defendant as the party who
threw the stone, but stated that 1t
was thrown by an old gray-haired
man. who wore red sweater and
blue overalls.
From a personal inspection of the
veranda where Sophie keyk0, .
child of ten years. claims she stood
when she saw the defendant come
out of the rear door on the north
west corner of the school. 1t would In
my opinion. be physically impossible
for her to have seen him and to de-
scribe his dress with the particular
tty with which she did and for that
reason / feel that her testimony
should be entirely disregarded."
Justice Sexton goes on in his
memorandum to state that "as to the
credibility to be given to the testi-
mony Of children OF tender years,
every practitioner of experience 10
alive to the endorsements and
danger which attend the admission
of such evidences. 1t Is often claim
ed and to a certain degree true, that
the natural language Of children Is
that Of innocence and truth, and that
their testimony 10 apt to be free from
prejudices or sinister motives which
too often affect and color the testi-
mony of grown-ups. but 1t may also
be said with equal force that the
testimony of children is open to sew
eral serious objections. First of all
there ID the uncertainty whether the
witness has a true and proper con-
ception of the obligation of an oath.
Then there 10 still the greater dan
ger-tha' such testimony il prompt
ed and inspired by INSCRIPTIONS, In
terested and dishonest persons.
After quoting Mr.. Stephen. q
recognized authority on law Of evil
dence. regarding the credibility Of
testimony of small children, Justice
Sexton states that the testimony of
the four or five witnesses. all Of
adult age and disinterested, who tcs-
titled that the janitor was busily
engaged arranging seats for an en-
tertainment that morning and that
he did not leave the building, and
that he did not wear overalls on
that day.
In conclusion, the justice cites:
Il am unable to see why a man of
mature years without any rhyme or
reason swould commit an assault
such as the one alleged in this case
upon a small boy Is years old with
whom he had no quarrel. a child
that he scarcely knew. In view Of
all Of the evidence and the sur
rounding circumstances, I feel that
the plaintiff has failed to make out
a case by fair preponderance Of
the evidence and therefore judg-
ment IL rendered for the defendant
to recover costs"
