much that it makes the filling dry In texture: not SO little that the juices become water. For cherry pie I use, as Q general rule, one and one-hale tablespoons of quick cooking tapioca for the filling ot each pie, while for Q very juicy berry such as the blueberry or lo- ganberry pie, the quantity of tap- ioca should be increased to two and one.half tablespoonfuls.
 The rich brown flaky top crust which marks the best Of pies is ob- tained by brushing the top crust with milk and beaten egg just be- fore the pie is placed in the oven.
 There are, of course, many berry pies, but none finer, in my judg- ment, than the hucklehcrry or blueberry pie. Yet blueSerrles, bes cause of their julcinesS, are con- sidwed more difficult to handle successfully than some of the other berries. Here is Q recipe which is simple and easy to follow, ard cer- tain to give good results.

 1 quart fresh huckleberries or
 blueberTies

Pleasing The Man
By CHLOE JAMESON

Of German origin is this man who writes, asking me to put in Q good word for the cheese cake, or cheese pic - his pet dessert which he also observes is much liked by other men in his office who join him ct noon for Q quick soda fountain luncheon.
 The ready.made cheese pie Is fairly good, this man comedies, but some. how it lacks the taste that dis. tingulshed his mothers recipe. He would like to get hold of an authens tic cheese pie recipe, 50 ho could carry 1t home to his wife who, being wholly American, is uninitiated in the fine point of this Old World dessert.
 A cheese pie he shall have, then, and 6 very simple one that halls from the kitchen of Q fine old Ger. man lady who knows more about delicious Kaffe KuchenS and cheese pies than any modern cook would confess.
 First comes . well.made pie crust made ready in Q deep pic pan. Then one takes Q cup of fresh cote take cheese and creams it well with one cup of rich milk or half milk and half cream. To this should Do added two well beaten eggs sugar to taste, and flavoring, which may Do either Q little grated lemon rind, q pinch of ground cinnamon or nut- meg. Pour the custard mixture into the pastry shelf and place in Q hot Oven for five minutes baking; then reduce the heat to low, and con- tinve baking until the custard sets. Double his recipe If you use . very deep pic pan.
 sT'here is also Q delicious variation called cheese cocoanut pie, made in this way: Soak ono cup of shredded CnoOanut in one cup of milk; beat together four egg yolkg and four tablespoons of sugar, until the eggs aFe very light. Add one cup of cnttago cheese, c pinch of salt, and beat well. Stir into this the cocoas TlI1 and milk in which 1t has soaked, mnding another cup of milk and the GFated rind Of Q lemon. Bake in . rnstry. .iined pic tin until firm in thO center. You may make a me- fingue of the egg whites if desired

 vent the undercrust from beoom- ing soggy, and how to make the top crust crisp, flaky and pale gold- on brown? These are points of i'm. portanco and deterimne the excel- lenco of 0 berry pie. Such 0 pic IS either wholly delicious or disap- pointing, according to the skill with which 1t is made.
 The easiest way to control the juices or berry pie is to use quick cooking tapioca in the berry i'll. ing. Tn my kitchen we use the taps ioca not only to thicken the juice of fruit pies, but also because 1t helps to preserve the fresh color Of the berries and makes the pie more appetiSing to the eye.
