Thus, ac- tording to the oft told story, did Po- tahontas save the life of John Smith, Captain and governor of the colony of Virginia.

In 1602 he was left wounded on the fleld, captured, and sent to Constantinople as a slave, There a princess fell in love with him, Fearing her mother’s ven- geance against Smith ,she sent him to het brother Timor, in Tatary, Ti- mor, suspecting the truth, put irons on him, clothed him in hair-cloth, and made him a slave in his har- vest field. .

Fill sterilized jars as full as possible without crushing, with firm, clean berries. Then fill the jars with a syrup made by using sugar and wa- ter in the proportion of one cup of sugar to one and one-half cups of wa- ter. Set the jars, with the covers laid on loosely, in a steamer or on a rack in a kettle of water, and cook until the contents of the jar are Seal and set away for uture use. The. filled jars may be set on a rack in a dripping pan con- taining a little water and set in the oven to cook; finigsh as before. It is well to have extra syrup to use in filling the jars if they seem not quite full after cooking. Two teaspoonfuls of pineapple juice added to a quart can of strawberries improves the flavor. The same amount of lemon juice improves the flavor for some. A very delicious strawberry sauce is made by sprinkling the washed and hulled strawberries with sugar, three-fourths of a cup of sugar to one quart of prepared strawberries. Al low them to stand over might. In the morning set in the oven and bake until boiling hot, put into sterilized jars, and seal. Do not allow the fruit to cook to pieces, but simply become » | boiling hot. o STRAWBERRY JUICE. Late in the season when the strawberries are small and seedy, they may be cooked, the juice drained off, again made boiling hot, and canned with or with- out sugar. Any bottles which may be at hand can be used for canning the juice. Boil the bottles and corks to be sure they are sterile. When filled and the cork securely placed, dip the neck of the bottle in paraffin, let cool and dip again. The bottled strawberry juice will be found good for use in puddings, pud- ding 'sauces, sherbets, ices, cake fill- ings, etc. L ' STRAWBERRY JELLY. The can- ned strawberry juice may be usgd er with crab apples or currants in ng jelly.

The K-R-I-T Is Economical In First Cost and Last Cost Economical in first cost because in the K-R-I-T #t $900 you get all thé essential features of cars cogting up to twice as much, Economical in last cost because the maintenance of car is far below the average in its class, "~ The reason for the first economy is the fact that the K-R-I-T is BUILT complete by and within one organization—every essential part made in the K-R-I-T plant. The savings in parts-makers’ profits make possible the extra value—the high quality,, the addition of $1800-car features. '!‘he reason for the second economy is the light weight, the low fuel consumption producing ample power for all requirements and the mechanical ex- cellence which practically eliminates repair bills, 20 to 21 miles on a gallon of gasoline 1s not uncom- mon and eight to ten thousand miles on one set of tires is the rule rather than the exception.
