Using Canned Fruits.
Canned fruits, like canned vegetables,
come in different grades. The grade
depends upon the size of the fruit, the
quality and the degree of sirup in
which it is packed. First, extra fancy;
second, fancy; third, choice; fourth,
standard. What the market calls ex-
ira fancy grade includes only the most
select of the prime fruits, uniform in
color and texture. 1t is perfectly pre-
pared and packed in an extra heavy
Sirup. Fancy grade consists of prime
fruit of even color and texture and is
canned in heavy sirup Choice canned

GOOD cake is quite UNDERSTANDABLE
one of our most popular desserts.
Cup cakes and layer cakes and loaf
cakes, to say nothing Of special cakes
such as sponge and angel, find favor
with most everybody.
Cake is not a harmful food. OF
course, children should not be allowed
TO eat cake IL their appetites are not
good for meat and vegetables, bread
and butter. fruit and milk. But they
may well be allowed cake occasionally.
after they are S or 6 years old, If they
eat properly of the substantial foods.
Fresh lake is not harmful either.
Indeed, I think it is more wholesome
than stale cake. The only danger with
fresh cake Is that it may not be
chewed. And anything as starchy as
cake ought to be thoroughly mixed
with saliva so that digestion will start
promptly and be carried through thor
oughly Teach your children not to
gobble cake, and then it will not hurt
them.
OF course, there are some delicious
cakes so rich that they are obviously
good for anybody very often, or on top
Of other rich and complicated foods.
Knack Is Required.
Cake isn't difficult TO make. A GER
tain knack is needed in mixing it; care
is needed in baking it. But you can
easily master those two details and
become an excellent cakemaker Then
you will have always at your fingertips
one of the most delicious of desserts.
Here are some good recipes for good
cakes:
| Raisin Cake.-Four cups of -four,
| three-fourthS cup of butter or marga-
| rine, one cup of sugar, half pound
| OF stoneless raisins, two ounces of mixed
! candied peel, two eggs. a third of a

| baking powder, pinch of salt. Mix
the flour and salt together and rub In
! the margarine or butter Halve the
raisins and cut the candied peel small
add these and the sugar to the -four
! and mix well. Beat the eggs, add the
milk then pour into the mixture. Beat
| the cake well and last of all add the
| baking powder. Half-hll a buttered
tin with the mixture and bake in q
good oven about one and a half hours
protecting the top with a buttered pa
per when half-done. Try with a bright
bladed knife or a straw and when II
comes out of the cake quite clean, take
out the cake and leave in a warm place
TO cool gradually. This cake can alsc
be made quite well without eggs, hall
pint OF mnk then being needed.
Chocolate Cake.--One cup of -four
quarter cup of sugar, one-quarter OF
butter or margarine, two ounces oil
sweetened chocolate, two eggs, a few

For instance there were the finger
tip towels. what on earth are these,
cousin Nancy? They are such tiny little
things. Are they baby towels?"
No, those small towels are used for
guest rooms or they are put in the
bath room when company is expected
They take the place of the guest towel.
The proper name for these is finger
tip towel"
A guest seldom does more than wipe
her finger tips, and 30 some bright per-
son conceived the idea of making small
ones for just that purpose.
You might make some or suggest
them to your older sister when she has
to give a bridge prize or shower gift.

To keep yolk of egg fresh, If
only the white is needed, cover

it will keep fresh for several days.

Soft butter or lard should never
be used in making pie crust.
Whatever shortening is used

To clean wall paper, first brush
the walls thoroughly with
buster tied oyer a long-handled
broom, ard wipe with clean

These towels are cut nine inches
wide and sixteen inches long. The edges
are hand hemmed or finished with a
hand rolled edge.
The ends are hemstitched above a
narrow hem. Then the towels are
monogrammed, using outline or fine
cross stitch. Tiny applique flowers may
be put on in place of monographs.

colors, say green, yellow, pink or rose,
and blue or orchid. Each half yard
makes three towels.
