SOME PUDDINGS.
Some tif the old-fashioned ptidtUnjfp
which were favorite* of our grand
mothers are being used today on our
best tables.
The common bread pudding may be
made into one of the most delectable
of desserts, using cocoanut, other nuts,
chocolate, orange rind, lemon rind
and other things to vary the flavor. A
very good pudding may be made of
stale cake crumbs with some leftover
canned fruit, put in layers and baked
as one does Brown Betty.
Lemon Pudding. Mix the yolks of
four eggs with four tablespoonfuls of
sugar, the juice of a lemon and two
tablespoonfuls of water; cook in the
double boiler until smooth and thick,
stirring constantly. Fold in the whites
v hen the cooked mixture Is cool, to
which has been added two tablespoon-
fuls of sugar.
Carrot Pudding.—This Is an old
English recipe and can be changed to
cup measure, if so desired. Mix to-
gether a half pound each of flour,
seeded raisins, potatoes and carrot
grated, suet ohopped fine, one tea-
spoonfu! each of cinnamon, cloves and
soda dissolved in a little water; then
add a half cup of sugar, one teaspoon-
ful of salt, one egg beaten. Turn into
a well buttered mold after giving the
mixture a thorough beating, and boil
two hours or steam three. Serve with
a bard sauce made by creaming a
third of a cup of butter, add two-
thirds of a cup of powdered sugar
and a teaspoonful of vanilla; fold In
a half cup of whipped cream.
Cracker Pudding.—Moisten one and
a half cupfuls of cracker crumbs with
boiling water; let stand until cool,
then add one pint of milk, one-third
of a cup of molasses, one egg slightly
beaten, a cupful cf raisins finely cut;
put into a mold and steam four hours
Let stand In mold until cool. Serve
with creamy sauce made by creaming
half a cup of butter, adding a cup of
powdered sugar, then a fourth of a
cup of milk and two tablespoonfuls of
orange juice, with a little jf the grat-
ed rind Add the liquids slowly, to
keep them from curdling. The hard
sauce for the carrot pudding is good
also for this.
Trouble* are seldom so bad as they
appear. Pm them in the strong sunlight
of faith and It will surprise yon to see
how Quickly the dark* st spots fade out.
—Lloyd.
SUGGESTIONS FOR THE DINNER
TABLE.
For a simple little bouquet of dain-
ties for a dinner table, a bunch of
heliothrope with a few pink roses in
a slender glass vase cannot be
equaled.
ft Is n good unit safs rule to sojourn
In e\ery pl.c. ns if you meant to spend
your life there, never omitting an oppor-
tunity of doing a kindness, or speaking
a true word, or 'linking a friend.
— John Buskin.
SOMETHING GOOD TO EAT.
A raisin sauce Is most delicious
with corned tongue, or in fact with
beef in any form.
Beef a la Mode, With Raisin*.—Out
a quarter of a pound of salt pork into
strips and fry in a pan, until crisp,
with a sliced onion, using beef drip-
pings for the frying medium, i.ay a
compact round of beef on them, add a
pint of boiling water, cover and cook
ten minutes, turning the beef three
times during the time Take up the
beef and lay It in a dripping pan,
dredge with flour and haste with the
gravy. Strain the gravy from the fry-
ing pnn, thicken \*iih Cour. reason
with salt, teaspoonful of sugar and
two tablespoonfuls of ohopped raisins
and the same of blanched and shred-
ded almonds; cook five minutes, then
pour around the meat.
Cottage Pudding.—Cream r table-
spoonful of softened butter with a cup
of powdered sugar; add two well beat-
en eggs, salt a half teaspoonful. and a
eup of sweet milk, alternating with
teaspoonfuls of baking powder;
two cups of flour. The amount of flour
varies, sometimes more may be need-
ed. The batter must be quite thin, a i
the pudding is much more delicate it
texture if little flour is used. Bake
in a flat tin and cut in squares. Serve
with a lemon sauce. Mix yvell a ci p
of sugar, two tablespoonfuls of (loir
and a half teaspoonful of grated nut-
meg; add a cup of boiling water and
cook until the starch in the flour is
well cooked, then add the juice of a
lemon, if very large a half may do;
a tablespoonful of butter, a bit of the
grated rind may be used instead of
the nutmeg, if so desired
Hashed Brown Potatoes. -Chop po
tatoes until fine (two cupfuls of cold
boiled potatoes will serve four peo-
ple!. season with onion juice, salt and
pepper, and turn into a yvell greased
fniqg pan; add a quarter of a cup
of milk and cook without stirring for
ten minutes. Fold and roll like an
omelet on a hot platter when ready to
serve. Garnish with a spray of pars
ley.
Well stewed prunes with whipped
cream makes a most delicious desert,
served with cookies.
SELECTION OF VARIETIES
FOR ORCHARD
1 X > u. utiu1 '

Pcwer Sprayer Using Steam. The Care of the Trees Early Will More Than
Repay the Work Involved When the Harvest Is Ripe.
(By L. R. JOHNSON.)
Although almost without exception,
fall is to be preferred to spring as* the
season to plant fruit trees and shrubs,
spring has the not unimportant advan-
tage of being preceded by a season
when the fruit grower has unlimited
time to study books and catalogues
and arrive at intelligent conclusions
as to what varieties to plant.
The choosing of varieties Is the
tion that an old standard variety Is
displaced by a new one and that In
numerous cases trees listed as stand-
ards fifty years ago still retain their
prominence.
Even after a new variety is intro-
duced it requires years to subject it to
a thorough test under various condi-
tions of soil and climate.
Buy a few- trees, If you like, to test,
but for your new orchard seek out ex-
most important process in the calen- perienced orchardists in your vicinity
dar of fruit growing. Without wisdom
here, the best judgment and the most
assiduous labor result in disappoint-
ment If not loss.'
It is generally characteristic of the
young and enthusiastic fruit grower to
look with more or less indifference and
contempt on the old, well tried varie-
ties and to give his affections to new
contestants for favor which are bging
boomed by certain nurseries as far
surpassing anything in existence.
But the man who is planning his
first, orchard and suffers himself to be
enticed into planting nev, varieties on
a large scale, falls into a grievous er-
ror and one that will have years to re-
pent of.
Let him understand that though the
process of improvement is sure and
steady yet it is not once in a genera-
If cross, feverish, constipated,
give “California Syrup
of Figs”
A laxative today saves a sick child
tomorrow. Children simply will not
lake the time from play to empty their
bowels, which become clogged up with
waste, liver gets sluggikh; stomach
sour
Look at the tongue, mother! If coat-
ed. or your child Is listless, cross, fev-
erish, breath bad. restless, doesn't eat
heartily, full of cold or has sore throat
or any other children's ailment, give a
teaspoonful of “California Syrup of
Figs.” then don’t worry, because it is
perfectly harmless, and In a few hours
all this constipation poison, sour bile
and fermenting waste will gently
move out of the bowels, and you have
a well, playful child again. A thor-
ough "inside cleansing'’ is oftimes all
that is necessary. It should be the
first treatment given in any sickness
Beware of counterfeit fig syrups.
Ask at the store for a DO-cent bottle of
"California Syrup of Figs," which has
full directions for babies, children of
all ages and for grown-ups plainly
printed on the bottle. Adv.
But the average man would have no
use for mirrors if lie sould see him-
self in them as others see hitp.
Peace in That Family.
A little girl being lost, wiys taken to
the police station, where the officers
tried to learn her name. At last, after
! many vain efforts, one of them asked
1 her:
"Tell me, dear, what names does
your mother c-all your father?"
"She doesn't call him any name,"
the child answered, Innocently. "Sho
likes him.”
Constipation causes many serious dis-
eases. It is thoroughly cured by Doctor
J’ierce’R Pleasant Pellets. One a laxative,
three for cathartic. Adv.
Many an opportunity is missed be-
cause it isn’t recognized.

and you will have the
secret of continued good
health—allow it to be-

weaken the entire sys-
tem. For any disturb-
ance of the Stomach,
and secure the names of those varie-
ties that have been regular and pro-
lific yieldcrs and arc well known and
in demand at the leading markets.
Do not imagine that Jonathan and
Grimes Golden, the Winesap and Ben
Davis, are about to be discarded for
more fashionable rivals, or that the

Plant, then, the oid and well proved
money makers and confine to your ex-
periment acre those new fruits whose
glowing description would persuade
you that untried friends are to be pre-
ferred to those who have long proved
their worth.

SOME EXCELLENT
MID-WINTER HINTS
Tramp Snow Around Trees to
Keep Away Mice—Give the
Turkeys Plenty Corn.
Each month In the year brings Its
own artistic decorations, which may
be varied In countless manner. When
all things fail, as well as ingenious
ideas, one may borrow from others
who have given us their experience.
A most amusing way of placing
guests is that of placing a baby pic-
ture of each guest for a place card
These may he obtained unbeknownst
to the victim.
For a children's table, a log cabin
made of colored stick candy, a rail
fence and a walk inside of tiny sticks
laid closely together. One's own taste
will suggest ways of using this sug
gestion.
A fern ball suspended over the din-
ner table, with sprays of fern for dec
oration radiating from the center. A
pink rose or two laid around on the
cover makes a most attractive dinner
table.
A novel idea for the finger bowl is
to sprinkle a green spray of rose
leaves and press on the bottom of the
glass bowl, then have a few petals
of the rose floating about In the wa
ter.
A novel way to arrange a shower
for a "to be", bride, is to have a pack
age or two brought In after each
course, and each guest have the fun
of helping to undo one for the hon-
ored guest.
A small ice tub to hold olives is
both attractive and useful, for we all
like our olives cold Freeze ice in a
tomato can. and when solid take it
out and make a oentpr to hold the
olives by sinking a baking powder
can filled with hot water in the cen-
ter of it Place the tub on a deep

FOR THE LUNCH BASKET.
The lunch basket, must serve more
than one or two classes of people.
The laboring man at work, in or out
of doors, the child at school, the busi-
ness man and woman. The character
of the food need not be radically
changed, but there will be smaller
quantities and greater variety for the
different people, ?.s to age and occu-
pation.
For those who exercise but little, like
office men or women, food that is eas-
ily digested should be provided, and
not in large quantities.
The one great fault of everybody is
eating too much. For the business
woman, a slice or two of rye or whole
wheat bread, with cheese in the form
| of a sandwich, and an apple with a
1 glass of milk, makes an excellent
lunch. A baked apple with bread and
butter, a head of lettuce with French
dressing In a small dish, a cup of cus-
tard will be with n cup of tea or milk
I another substantial lunch.
Celery, dates stuffed with nuts, a
| tig or two or an orange, a banana are !
: always fine accessories to any lunch
For the school child, two slices of
whole wheat bread, with nuts or cream
| cheese spread on well buttered slices
and seasoned with salt^ A cup custard
I or an apple for dessert
Two slices of white bread veil but
tered and sp-ead with hard cooked egg J
well seasoned and a small cup of rice
pudding.
For the business man the number
of sandwiches could be doubled and
coffee added to the above
For the laboring man more sub
stantial sandwiches filled with meat,
cold baked beans, potato salad, pie.
cake and coffee, with an apple for s
finish, will be found sufficiently sati^

A friend who lost all her window
plants one very cold night in Decem-
ber, says she hunted along the beds
and borders for seedlings of annual
and perennial roots. These she care-
fully potted and by degrees moved
them to the windows and Bhe was
emply rewarded by quick growth and
abundance of bloom.
When the first heavy snow falls
tramp it about the newly set trees and
shrubs. This will shut out the mice
It is not generally known that the
periwinkle (so-called myrtle) that
creeps and has blue flowers in the
spring makes a fine winter decoration.
Gather some bunches of it before win-
ter and use it about the house. Its
long evergreen sprays adapt them-
selves gracefully wherever placed.
After r. heavy snow-storm when the
evergreens are laden with snow, be
sure to shake it off, especially before
night, for if more snow is added dur-
ing the night or if it rains the trees
may be damaged before day.
Beware of the lure of the seed cata-
logue “novelties and wonders." It
is pleasant of course to try a few
grandees, but stick to the tried faTor-
ites for the main crop of blossoms.
If the pansy has a littie fence
around it of boards and leaves and
brush heaped upon it not too close-
ly. you may look for blossoms almost
any time in cold weather. Such a bed
will do wonders In April and May.
When an ambitious window plant
spreads beyond its given territory, cut
off two or three inches of its fore-
most branches and make cuttings of
the m.
Moisture is supplied to plants in a
living room I am familiar with by
means of a sponge dipped in water
several times a day and hung against
the wall register of a hot air furnace.
Frozen plants may be survived if
not too deeply bitten, by removing
them to the cellar or some place just
above freezing and keeping them cold
ami dark. Shower them with cold wa-
ter. In two or three days cut off
the blighted leaves and stalks well
into the injured parts Return to the
window garden by degrees.
Give the turkeys plenty of corn j
these days and see that they have

Smithville, Ind.—"Six months ago
our baby girl, one year old. had a few
red pimples come on her face which
gradually spread causing her face to
become very irritated and a fiery red
color. The pimples on the child's face
were at first small watery blisters, just
a small blotch on the skin. She kept
scratching at this until in a few days
her w hole cheeks were fiery red color
and instead of the little blisters the
skin was cracked and scaly looking
and seemed to itch and burn very
much.
“We used a number of remedies
which seemed to give relief for a short
time then leave her face worse than
ever. Finally we got a cake of Cuti-
cura Soap and a box of Cuticura Oint-
ment. I washed the child's face with
very warm water and Cuticura Soap,
then applied the Cuticura Ointment
very lightly. After doing this about
three times a day the itching and
burning seemed entirely gone in two
days’ time. Inside of two weeks’ time
her face seemed well. That was eight
months ago and there has been no re-
turn of the trouble.” (Signed) Mrs.
A K. Wooden. Nov. 4, 1912.

Hoarseness
Have you got hoarseness that
continues? Or do you get hoarse
once in a while, whenever you get
the slightest cold?
Hoarseness means a catarrhal
condition of the vocal cords. The
vocal cords are way down in the
larynx and when affected by
hoarseness should cause serious
concern.
Peruna has been found to be an
excellent remedy for such cases.
We have received testimonials
from responsible people who have
been relieved of hoarseness by
Peruna. Should you want to read
a lot of excellent testimonials on
all subjects write for the

Peruna can alto be obtained in
