Dear Sisters of the Social Corner: It is pleasing to see the interest in our department never lags. Dear Sister Read 1 should be pleased to call and admire some of your hobbies. Dear A. S, C. N.: Pa and I and the chicks are doing fine. Pa speaks of all you sisters real often. J. E,_ T.: I tried the sour grape juice, and as I made too much to use at once I bottled it. 1 got it boiling hot, put the bottles on a cloth wet with hot water so the hot juice wouldn't break the botties. Sealed the botdles with parafine and put away for future use. It was fine. I get rid of the cockerels as soon as the hatching season was over, and in July I began to sell off the old hens in small lots, and will have them all sold by September 1st excepting a few of the best vearlings, as they are profita- ble to keep until two years old; also the eggs are better for hatching than vullets’ eggs. 1 put leg bands on the hens at this time of year so I can always teli them from the pullets. The leg bands can be bought at any hardware store and can be used over and over again. A hen two vears old may be laying well, and sometimes we kill one that would have laid for awhile, and naturally there is a temptation to keep them over. Don't do it as it doesn’t pay. A younger one eats no more and lays more eggs. MA. Waterford, August 7, 1911, COOKING IN THE WOODS.

Those of the sisters who so appre- ciated the first poem which Mr. Brom- ley sent, “Where the {ilk-white Birches Grow,” will aiso enjoy the first article in The American for August, entitled “The Abandoned Farm,” by Walter Eaton Prichard. It is illus- trated with some very lovely drawings: and evervone who has spent their first days on a farm will appreciate it ex- ceedingly. P.UE Norwich Town. Dear Sisters of the Social Corner: I herewith submit dependable recipes: Pudding—One cup of fine bread crumbs, one and one-half of flour, one cup of molasses, one cup of milk, sweet or sour, one teaspoon of soda, two eges, one desertspoon of ginger, salt, raisins. Steam two hours. This pud- ding may be varied by using sugar and chocolate in place of molasses, spice and fruit. Any pudding sauce may be used but we prefer whipped cream. Fresh soft gingerbread served with whipped cream makes an excellent desert. Poor Man’s Pudding—“Equal parts of perserverance and the best work you can obtain. Pour over this mixture an abunant supply of courage and re- plenish frequently if it shows a ten- dency to boil away. Sweeten well with joy-in-service. Get up plenty of steam around this mixture and keep the lid of your steamer on tight. This pud- ding is so wholesome it may form the daiiy food of the laboring man.” O Divine Worker what joy hast thou given us greater than the joy of work well done!

I take quite a large book that is strong in the bind, and with good covers. cut out two leaves and leave omne, then trim and fit the pieces to the page, lay them one side, cover the entire page with the paste, then lay on the pieces, as fitted, and smooth over with a cloth. It can be done neatly. and one can have quite a nice collection. I thank the editor for telling me the title and where I could find the poem 1 asked for last week. I shall try to get a copy of it for my book. ‘With best wishes for the success of The Bulletin and the Corner. Norwich. WILD CHERRY. TESTED CAKE RECIPES.

Dear Sisters of the Corner: It has been a long time since I last wrote to the Cormer, but if I haven't written, I have read all the sister’s letters. Some it seems as though I knew personal, J. E. T, Bee, Clara of Canterbury, Faye Verna, Frank, Billie, Awilda. Where ig she now, and others who used to write. I hope they have not drop- ped out for good—we miss them ali. Ma. Rural Delivery. Louise, Centen- nial"Square, I hope to hear from you all. A S C N. does it stand for South Carolina, North America, I didn’'t know but what you were from one of our southern sta.es and vou just mixed the letters. Am T a good Yankee? Having been under the doctor’s care for the last three months, I have hagd to give up everything. It wasn't easy, for me to sit with folded hands, nor to stay at home during the pleasant days, when friends went to the seaside. But then I am fortunate in having a nica garden to sit in, and so 1 can enjoy the pleasant days after all. And now is the time we enjoy our home the most. When we are well we can go anywhere: but when sick, Ah! there is no place like home, sweet home, with our friends and loved ones beside I also enjoy reading the letters writ- ten to Uncle Jed by the children. T wonder if our Editor of the Corner is Uncle Jed also. The Social Corner Song was just beautiful. As we go on ufe'- journey we can give a smile or a kind word— it will not cost us anything, and may do us as much good as ‘he one we give it to. From the Shut-In: What do the sisters of the Corner say; to all mem- bers having Social Corner pins. They could be given as prizes, or we could buy them right out and be sure to wear them every one. We might meet one another in that way. SHUT- North Stonington. IS HOME IF EVER SO HOMELY. Dear Friends: I have traveled sev- eral dusty miles in order to meet with vou today.

It 'brings to nearly every individual that unex- plainable somethingz which is never found elsewhere. It is not always the greatest amount of ease and comfort, it is not at all times the most cahn | and peace which awaits one at home nay, it is often the direct opposite of these qualities singly. or collectively, that is, or are found at home: yet it is our home and no piace innately dear. An instance illustrating this faat came into notice very recently. A lit- tle child, possibly six or seven years of age, had been taken from a very poor home and was being tenderfly cared for in the home of a well-to-do farmer. His mother was with her flor a week. On_the ‘third day of their stay, lit- tle Bllen seemed very restless arudi tearful. Upon being «uestioned as’ to the cause of her trouble she said’ “Qh, do let Mummy and me go bay home. I wants to sit in the dark room and see the light peen through thes crack. You ain't got no dark room here. | wants to go home. I'm IOM-" some for my home.” 3 POLLY PEPPERMINT. g is more | ‘Whenever the new moon glistened So slender and so fine I looked across my shoulder And wished that wish of mine. So sang Rose Terry Cooke many vears ago and many times have I re- peated the lines to myself and to young friends whe have greeted with me the fresh new moon. Even after our latest moon a young girl, who had never before invoked the spell, came back with radiant face to tell me of the unexpected good news that had “come to pass in the morn.” But our Rose had added other verses, not so agreeable to myself or my friends. She adds:— ! Now when the west is rosy And the snow wreaths blush below And I see the light white crescent Sing downward soft and slow, I never look over yay shoulder As I used to look before, = For my heart is older and colder And now T sh no more. And so Toffer a revised version:— .Now when the west is paling “ After the sunset glow And 1 see the white light crescent Sink downward soft and slow. -1 still look over my shoulder As [ used in days of yore For my heart is not older nor colder And I wish tonight as before. Not for the same things, perhaps, not for the “wild wishes” that thril, but rather for the continuance of every day mercies, for eyes to see and fheart to enjoy the new and old moon, Wthe morning and evening stars, and all the beautiful things in nature and life, and 1 like to include good wishes for «li who, like me. welcome the com- ing of each new moon, the good old ‘moon, ever néw and hopeful after | millenniumns of change and servie Ellen D.
