CRANBERRY FIXIN'S FOR
 TURKEY.
By MARY E. DAGUE NEA Service Staff Writer

Thanksgiving dinner always has meant turkey and cranberry sauce and fixin' sand I hope 1t always will. Only an iconoclast of the most irreverent order would seek to alter by so much as sage sprig this hallowed tradition.
 But there are new touches and accessories for 1884 that will add zest to the feast without violating the past. For instance, our great grandmothers probably n ev e T would have thought of serving their cranberry jelly in individual molds with whipped cream piped around for decoration-not to eat probably since it would spoil the tart eqect. Then there's a pine pple-cranberry combination that makes particularly handsome dish.
 The recipes that follow are a faithful effort to settle the entire cranberry question for this holi- day season.
 Cranberry Jelly.
 Four cups cranberries, 3-4 cup boiling water, l teaspoon lemon juice, sugar.
 Pick over and wash berries. Put into a large sauce pan with water and cook until soft. Strain through jelly bag and measure juice. Heal to the boiling point and add hail as much sugar as juice. Stir unti sugar is dissolved. Boil hard fol five minutes and pour into molds Good and then chillin ice box. Un- mold and serve with garnish o1 whipped cream. Apples in Cranberry Jelly. If you choose roast pork instead of turkey for your Thanksgivina dinner you will find this combina- ton specially satisfactory. Four small apples, cup water 1-2 cup sugar, 2 cloves.

 CHAPTER XxXVIII
 Fisher turned to the two men. "aave you gentlemen any ques- tions you want to ask?''
 Griff shook his head. "Tm satis- fed," he said.
 Blocker hesitated for a moment. Then he said, "No, there's nothing I can think of"
 Griff turned to the girl. T want her promise" he said, "that she won't leave this room for at least an hour"
 Fisher turned to the girl. "You heard what he said?''
 "Who is he?" she asked. "And why do I have to do what he says 2

 "She comes next" Fisher agreed.
 "Can you," asked Griff, "tell me what this thing is all about"
 "You know almost as much as I do," the lawyer told him. T have been having some difficulty tracing this young woman. I finally sue ceded. I think that there is a very deep laid plot afoot. I am afraid that the plot has already gone too far"
 You know his chauffeur well?" Griff asked.

Of a grocery smploye. One night she
phonsd the doctor. saying her husband
had just left her, and asking him to at
tend her. The medico responded; while
he was caring for the agitated wife, the
husband entered and accused him of mis-
conduct. There was fight, ending in the
husband's being knocked out.
Later, the wife set up a boarding
house. The physician's two nephewa
boarded there, and he himself at times
came to call, took the young woman for
auto and horseback rides
The husband sued the physician,
charging alienation of his wife's affec.
tions-ths English call it "enticement''--
citing the interest the doctor had taken
in her. Specifically, the husband stated
that. on the occasion Of the fight, the
physician had said to the young wife:
"Come on, Gwen, we will co. The hus-
bands attorney argued that this was zen.
ticement." The defense attorney argued
il had no such implication and was q per-
fsctly proper phrase for a protector to
use under the circumstances.

physician was entirely platonie; that he

The Bride Who Didn't Suit Her
Parents-in-Law
2 A young society belle, at a gala '
OS dins hacamA fhA bride nf n brill

q A young society belle, at gala we'd
"" ding, became the bride of brilliant
young financier--it was considered the
prize>romance of the year in that locality
Instead of establishing a new home, he
took her to live At his old one, where he
and his parents had resided for years.
Nine years later, they parted. The
wife then sued his parents for 500, geo,
alleging that they had alienated her hus-
bands affections.
The testimony revealed a long course
of acute interference by the in-laws,
starting only week after the marriage,
when the father admitted he told his
son: "lt's too bad you married her" The
wife said her husbands parents had hated
her from the beginning; had criticized
her, cursed her, filled her husbands mind
with talsehoodS against her, barred her
from family conferences, shut her out of
the kitchen and dining room and made it
difficult for her to get food, and finally
had told their son he must part with his
wife or forfeit their parental regard
The wife said that her husband, under
this influence. had gradually grown
nsglectful and at one time had struck her
and fractured her nose.
The parents acknowledged disliking
and critieizing their daughter .in-law, but
held they had a right to do 50 and that
Il was for their sons own good. They
denied they had alienated his affections,
saying that the wife had done so herself.
