To this add six pounds of granulated sugar, one pound of English walnut, chopped or cut, and one wineglass of Jamaica ginger. Boil all_ until thick and seal in jars. As with all stewed fruits, sugar should be added after the rhubarb has rorily cooked. This will prevent the fruit from toughening and also save the sugar. Spices which combine at- tractively with rhubarb are cinnamon, nitmeg and ginger. Prunes, figs and strawberries are al- so excellent combined with rhubarb. Because of its soft, seedless consis- tency, it is a wost excellent fruit to form'the basis of a marmalade o “butter.” Best wishes to all. MOUNTAIN LAUREL. STRAWBERRY RECIPES. Dear Editor and Sisters:—I sena seasonable recipe: for beef tea, one baked sweet potato, split it when done, lengthwise; cut the skin with small scissors on each side into tiny sharp points, split the catable part half-way down, and put some butter, salt and pepper in it— then fix a banana the same way, only put sugar and cream on instead of butter, and one cucumber peeled, salt- ed. seeded and grated, a little vinegar then cut a two-inch perfect looking key from _the green peel and lay across top of grated cucumber; two breadsticks. toasted, and some hot cream and butter ailowed to run over them, drain off and place on side of plate where steak is. Have your best forks and spoons bright, thin white phin china, your napkins ironed smdbthly, a few fine fern leaves, nicely washed, put in tall white ground glass vase. Only a lit- tle of any thing; and yet different, is what tempts the indisposed ome. It only costs a few extra cents: one cu- cumber ten cents, one banana five, one sweet potato four cents, steak g much {n Mite. L BT TERMS USED IN CROCHET. Dear Social Corner Friends:—I often wonder why you sign your pames_as you do. Why not tellz I sign_mine as I do because my pen usually scratches so badly. I wish to thank the Sisters for the cooking recipes, and for the crochet work. : Suppose 1 send my directions for crochet stitches. I think they are the plainest of any 1 have seen: Terms Used in Crochet—Ch. st., «chain stitch, simply a serles of loops or stitches each drawn with the hook through the preceding ome; s. c., sin- gle crochet, having a loop on hoonk, insert hook in work as indicated, draw Toop through thread over, and draw through both loops; d. c., double cro- g-‘ m:hlml:e wild th:hm'x They,ton e other hand, slip with noiseless feet QRS % paies ot wpld pu through thelr coverts, shy, silent, list- ening; more concerned to hear than to be heard, loving silence and hating noise and fearing it as they hate and fear their natural enemies. We would not feel comfortable if a big barbarian came into our quiet home, broke the door_down, whacked his war club on the furniture and whooped his battle yell. We could hardly be natural un- der the circumstances, Our true dis- positions would hide themselves. We might even vacate the house bodily. Just so wood-folk. “All the wood folk are more curlous about you than you are about them. Sit down quietly anywhere in . the woods and your coming will occasion the same stir that a stranger makes in a New England hill town. Control your curolosity and soon their curlos- ity gets beyond control: they must come to find out who you are and what you are doing. .Then You have the advantage for while their curiosity is being gratified they forget fear and will_show you many curious bits of their life that you never will discover otherwise.” " As Samantha resumed her seat Great Grandma rose and started to speak, but the Cornerites would not allow so venerable a person to stand and she was tenderly seated in an easy chair on the platform. “Friends,” said she, “I have been thinking of the contrast between past and present methods of nature study. My first lesson in botany was the ar- tificial system for the classification of Plants arranged by Linnaeus. They were divided into twenty-four classes, each of which had @ Greek name There was the first class—Monandria, composed of flowers havinz one sta- men: Digandria, flowers having two stamens, Triandria, flowers with three stamens and so on. 1 finally succeeded in committing to memory all twenty-four classes and or a wife who has not seemed to re- gard economy, and by 'giving some kind advice, trying to avold offense, would it not be gratefully accepted, and appreciated by most any well- thirking man? Here are a few little things that are worthy of making a note of. se Who us kerosene oil for lamps, when filling same, should be careful not to overfill, thus make waste: and keep a tight plug in nose of oil can to prevent evaporation. Don't keep a lamp burning when it's not needed—this applies to gas and electricity as well Don't ieave a cake of soap in a pail or pan of water, to dissolve and waste. Don’t leave the scrub-brush in wa- ter thereby loosening the bristles. “Tin, iron and enamelware should be dried on the back of the stove, or they are soon rusted out and useless. In sifting flour, don't use a sieve larger than the dish into which the flour is sifted, or there will be more willful waste. Don’t fill the stove with too muekh coal or wood at once, and use all the wood ashes, scattered on the iawn, especially around the ‘“front {door”. The grass will be much benefitted. When the washing hangs on the cicthesline and if here and there a clothes-pin falls off, don’t allow the clothes to swing on the ones remain- ing pin, but replace the fallen pin. In ironing clothes be careful not to scorch or burn from the iron stand- ing too long. When we hear of poverty-stricken fomilies, we may judge from a little investigation, “there is a screw loose somewhere.” Dorothy Perkins The item in the Editor's column, regarding a létter from me, Was an error, it was to another sister. ture of the past. “Show me a bunch of Hepsticas and £ am a child roving the woods on the first warm Spring day. On yonder sunny bank clusters of Hepaticas hold their bright and delicate blossoms to- ward the sky. A little brook is rip- pling over the stones with a swilt rythm, and beyond the brook the vivid green leaves of theé false hellebore are outlined against the gray rocks. “Daisies and June grasses in the meadows and pink. orchids in the swamps recall the farewell to school. “Meadow rue was blossoming in the meadows and the long tassels of the chestnut trees were tossing In the breeze. when sorrow first entered the home. With their return come mem- ories of the one who, at that season of the year, passed beyond our ken. Golden rod,” purple asters and life everlasting being thoughts of aged friends whose hearts never grew ol who now are in the land of eterna youth. “The. flowers bring more than mem- ores, they bring a message. And it Is this—as surely as year by year the flowers that dle in the autumn return in the spring so surely shall you see your friends again in the country where flowers never fade and sorrow and death are unknown. We shall see them again, and the ‘0ld love will ever look out from the old faces. We shall see them again, and the Saviour who loved ‘the lilles of the field will ‘go in and out among us’ and hold familiar discourse as he did with His disciples of_old.” The thoughtful silence that followed this reading was. broken by Merry mer Who remiarked: 'JYhat a de- ul _program. that was.”, “Yes,” respondea Queen Bess, Veach entertainment committée has done splendidly and a number of the Sis- ters have served in that capacity.

She also was very fond of soups and broths in large quantity, so I.made my soups and brothe very condensed and added more hot water to hers. so each received the same amount of nutrients. One child can take only a smail amount of acld fruits; if strawberries, we allow her -onily one large one at a meal, and other acids in proportion, but always give her some of every kind we happen to have. Their desserts are usually fresh fruit, or the dried fruits, or cooked fruit of any kind, chocolate or sugar, etc. We use all kinds of sandwiches, meat or egg or vegetable, or fruit or sweet sandwiches of Jjelly, etc. Each child has a teaspoonful of olive oil each day, beginning while they are small; then they are willing to take it. ‘We use cereals mostly. in bread, but when served as cereal we use no sugar on it, only milk or cream. We think it muck better to give the sugar or sweet separate; but not on or in food or_drink. Until we are sure they will chew them thorougily, all greens or vegeta- bles, dried fruits, etc., are put through the 'food chopper.

Strawberry Sauce—Cream one cup plain’ or narrow stripe, or if for a kit- chen the little pehble paper, I think it is called, 28 there will be no figure to match. Take a yardstick and place one end at celling and if your border is nine inch, make a mark six or seven inches down around the room. It is a guide to keep paper even. Have walls as smpoth as possible, no_ends of pa- per “hanging. Have an 18-inch board or two 9-inch hinged tosether, placed on two barrels, one right side up to hold trimmings from paper. After get- ting length of room from pencil mark to baseboard allow perhaps six inches to trim off as old houses are uneven sometimes. . Now cut up a roll or more, keeping edges even and cut per- fectly straight at ends (a good way to keep board clean is to cover with newspaper the same width—renew when_soiled). do as you like.
