There ! scarcely a sin In the world
tlint Is such u crying one us Ingrati

Cheoso Is such a wholesome food In
itself that It Is almost a perfect one.
Many a hard-working
man has found it most
satisfying with good,
wholesomo bread, well
baked.
Stuffed Figs. Steam n
few large pulled figs nnd
(ill with cream cheese
that has been softened
with cream and highly seasoned with
cayenno and salt. Servo as an ac
companiment to lottuce or any other
light salad.
Cheese Sandwiches. These arc de
licious,, If carefully made. Cut bread
In small triangles nnd lit with a piece
of cheese the same size, place another
piece of bread on top and saute In
butter In a hot frying pan, browning
both sides. Servo with lottuce. A
tlnBli of seasoning may be added to tho
cheese.
Cheese Fritters. Molt a fourth of a
cupful of butter, add a fourth of a
cupful each of flour and cornstarch,
blended together, then pour on, stir
ring constantly, two cupfuls of milk.
Bring to tho boiling point and let sim
mer threo minutes, stirring con
stantly. Add tho yolks of two eggs, slight
ly beaten, one-half a cupful of grated
cheese, one-half a teaspoonful of salt,
and a few dashes of cayenne. Pour
into a buttered pan and cool. Turn
on a board and cut in diamond shapes.
Place on a platter, sprinkle with

not Injure tho best china.
Baked Rarebit. Cut a pound of
soft, mild cheese In thin slices. Pre

crumbs, and add two tablespoonfuls
of melted butter. Sprinkle a layer
of tho buttered crumbs in a buttered
baking dish, cover with one-third of
tho cheese, sprinkle with salt and

WAYS OF SERVING PINEAPPLE.
Pineapples are ono of our most valu
able fruits; besides being most re
freshing and deli
cious to tho taste
they have a
marked medicinal
value, and aro used
for affections of tho
throat. Pineapple is
ono of those satis
fying fruits which
may be canned or preserved without
losing all resemblance to tho fresh
fruit.
As each year comes we find the
pineapple mora abundant, and in con
sequence more reasonable In price.
Tliero aro now few weeks In tho year
when fresh plnenpple is not to bo
seen in the markets.
Pineapple Compote. Cook a cupful
of rice until it is quite soft, and each
grain stands out by itself. Form tho
rice Into mounds about tho sizo of
a slice of pineapple, place a slice on
top and pour over a sauce made from
tho pineapple juice, sugar, a little
lemon juice and butter. Servo hot.
Pineapple Snow. Drain the sirup
from a can of plncapplo and when
boiling stir in two tablespoonfuls of
cornstarch mixed with a llttlo cold
Juice. Mash tho fruit to a pulp and
stir Into the' thickened juice. Beat
tho whites of two eggs until stiff and
fold In lightly. Pour Into a mold, set
on Ice and serve with well-sweetened
whipped cream.
Pineapple Omelet. Muke an ordi
nary five-egg omelet and fold Into it
while It Is cooking nnd yet soft a can
of shredded plncapplo which lias been
gently cooked with a cupful of sugar
until the juice has been reduced. Dust
thickly with sugar and brown.
Pineapple Fritters. Sift together a
cupful of flour a half teaspoonful of
baking powder, a quarter of a tea
spoonful of salt, add a can of plnc
applo .from Its juice, sprinkle with
sugar and let stand ono hour. Dip
Little or Grer.t?
When ordinary men allow them
selves to be worked up by common
everyday difficulties Into fever-fits of
passion, wo can glvo them nothing but
a compasslonnto smile. But we look
with a kind of awo on a spirit In
which the seed of a great destiny has
been sown, which must abido tho un
loiding of tho gorm, and nolther daro
nor can do anything to iiroclpitato
olthr Hie good or the ill, either tho
happiness or tho misery which Is to
bHsh oa' of lt-Cartho
each piece in tho fritter batter, which
should bo thick enough to hold Its
shapo when dropped Into hot fat. If
too thin add more flour. Fry in deep,
hot fat, drain on pnper nnd dust with
powdered sugar. A sauce of tho jutco
of plncapplo with sugar and butter
makes thorn still more delicious If
served with them.
Simplicity nnd plainness arc the soul
of elognnco.

HELPFUL HINTS.
Tho problem of disposing of tin
cans even with a good system of gar
bage romoval has
been solved In a
mensuro by ono
bright woman who
punches holes in
the bottom after
removing tho con
tents, flattening
thorn out with' a
few strokes of hammer, then thoy will
not hold water and take up very llttlo
room in the can or barrel.
A fiber brush used on the rubbing
board to scrub very soiled places, will
save tho hands ns well as thd clothing;
tho brush enters into the weave of the
cloth and soon tho soil disappears.
When grating horseradish or peel
ing onions wear n pair of auto goggles,
tho eyes will be saved much discom
fort. Doll up your old tin and Iron uten
sils In lye water once in a while and
see how smooth nnd clean they will
he. Then with a good scouring they
will look bright again.
Tho emergency Bhelf has beon spo
ken of so often that it seems as If ev
erybody must know its value by this
time. Have a few canned soups, somo
vegetables, like corn, beans and peas,
nuts, figs nnd good crackors as well
as a bottle of olives, somo cans of sal
mon, only to bo used In case of sudden
unplanned-for company. It will bo a
source of great comfort to be thus
fortified.
Let celery Ho In cold water somo
time before using, to crisp it.
Dncon ends may bo purchased at a
much lower rato than the sliced bacon
and one will find It a great saving to
invest in them occasionally.
Boiled celery served in a rich white
sauce makes a most tasty dish to
servo with meats or as a luncheon
dish.

cream.
Oyster Sausage. Take n half pound
of veal, ono pint of oysters, tho yolks

DEADLIEST ENEMY OF APPLE
San Jose Scale Will Attack Almost

Spraying Is Only Remedy.
Tho San Joso scalo Is tho most de

tho last flvo years tho only thing that
has provonted tho ruin of tho Industry
was heavy Investments In sprayers
and spraying materials.
Last sprliig I drovo through' three
of our applo counties. I saw many or

on nenrly any wood plant and If left

When it appears upon old trees the
scalo Is usually found on tho twigs oi
Bmallor limbs. On young trees It may
appear over tho entlro surfneo of the

plish ring around the scale.
Tho scales that live through tho win
