How to Make
Jellies
'. By LORETTA C. LYNCH.'
i With every indication of higher
trices in the fall, the thrifty house
wife is making some jelly. 'True,
me com 01 sugar iS nign, and in
many sections fruit is none too
cheap, but the "other fellow" must
pay the same pnCe approximately
as vou, and in addition vou must
pay him for his labor, overhead and
merest on investment besides.
The task of making a supply of
elly for the family pantrv for wili
er is not difficult, if the" hnuw wife
uses judgment. In the first place,
too much should not be attempted
at one time. The care 'one exer
cises is apt to arrow lax if an never-
ending quantity seems to be staring
one in tne face.
A.I . .
.notiier suggestion is the group
method of working. Several wome
should plan to help each other.

Then one should have several vard

to several thicknesses and Sewed in
to a three-cornered bag.

time in attempting to make jelly
from it. A fruit ripe or over-ripe
is not nearly so good for jelly

fruit.
irruits known to contain pectin
are apples, cranapples. currants
quinces, cranberries, grapes and
blackberries. If you want to make
jelly of peach parings, the parings
must be cooked with apple. Rasp
berries combined with currants are
the makings of a much-prized iellv
The fruits should be washed and
then cut into pieces and cooked in
a very little water until soft as with
apples, or. in the case of grapes and
currants, the fruit should be crushed
until the juice flows. No water is
equired. When soft the fruit should
be turned into the icllv baz. ore

allowed to drip into a larce how
At the end the bag may be squeezed
to extract the remaining juice, but
this juice should be caught in an
other bowl. Jt will make a cloudy
jelly good enough tor spreading be
tween the layers of jelly cake. The
ryiiice should be measured in any
convenient measure, ror each meas
ure of juice allow three-fourths of
ka measure of sugar. Mix with juice
ana boil until a little dropped frona
a spoon will just hold its shape on
a plate when allowed to cool.
When the jelly is ready, pour into
small glasses or jars previously
dipped into hot water. When cold,
pour melted parafine over the glass
to the derith of one-fourth of an
inch.
Irish Lace a Feature

What's What
By HELEN DECIE
By CORINNE
LOWE.
t
N e w Y o r k.
(Special Corre
" spoudence.) The
riot of Irish lace is
certainly a feature
of dress politics
this season. This
familiar weave is
used on all man
ner of new frocks,
blouses and lin
gerie, but here we
see it asserting a
new right. It is to
become the under
skirt of this charm
ing little frock of
taffeta. The taffeta
is in itself worthy
of our attention,
for it is a striking
pattern of stripes
in blue, black and
white. The charm
ing irregular yoke
alio is of Irish lace.
This frock is de
signed particularly
for the young girl,
although it is not
too festive for Jjer
older sister. --t
Measuring Cups.
Keep a standard cup in the suear
bin and another in the flour bin in
stead of the custoniery broken le
tups of varying sizes usually used
there.
Charcoal for Stains.
A hopeless discoloration of a blac1
crepe de chine dress can be concealei
by moistening the stain and rubSing
charcoal over it.
Do You' Know II r.
Throe Question a Day for the Houtewife.
1. Is milk a perfect food for adults?
2. How much time to allow for roasting lamb?
3. How to remove scorch marks from linen?
These questions will be answered tomorrow by the HOUSEWIFE.
as
Answer to Yesterday's Question.
1. Butter was used more than 2,000 years ago, but usuall
a medicine or as an ointment after bathinir.
2. To keep onions from smelling while cooking, boil them ir,
an uncovered saucepan. Open the kitchen windows at the top. The
odor will not go through the house.
3. To clean brass. When you have no brass polish, rub it
thoroughly with a mixture of vinegar and salt
Each of these household problems has been worked out bv tho
author, who has not onlyaken a course in scientific housewifery
and dietetics at Columbia university, and written and edited women's
newspaper and magazine features for years, but is a practical house-
Keeper as wen.
The most brilliant epigram attrib
uted to the late Lord Fisher is: "Do
right to any man; don't write to any
woman."
In the eighteenth century letter
writing had become on the the fine
arts; in the nineteenth century it be-
stan to be but a pleasant duty otten
iong drawn out and in the twentieth
century the one-time epistolary art
is almost telegraphic in brevity.
Yet, although there is little time
for elaborate correspondence in
these busy days, the old rules still
hold good regarding prompt re
sponses to letters which require an
swers, fastidiousness as to the qual
ity of the notepaper used and the
maintenance of a certain reserve in
-expression, no matter how impulsive
)niav he the emotions of the writer.

t( Handy in the Kitchen.
A usePul kitchen tool is made of a
stick of wood about 10- inches long
apd three-quarters of an inch square.
Around one end, a sheet of sand
paper is tightly wrapped and tacked.
The other end is shaped for a handle.
This is handy. for sharpening knives
or sandpapering cupboard doors that
stick. As the paper becomes worn,
it can be cut along the line of the
tacks, and the worn layer peeled off.

Picnicking Joys
It is the duty of every home man
ager to occasionally "drop every
thing" to take advantage of the
glorious weather and give the fam
ily a day in the woods or the park.
Such excursions will remain precious
in the memories of children. It is
further the privilege of every house
wife to so plan her work that she
will feel free to tak'e advantage of
several iileaf summer days.
A few years ago ecn the least
pretentious excursion caused a great
amount of extra work and readjust
ment. It often was a physical im
possibility for the busy housewife
to manage even a half-day's pleas
ure trip Vith the children, for she
didn't have the strength to spend a
day before the picnic in the kitchen
"making ready" for the event. In
these days ot progress and pure food
laws, however, high s-alaricd chefs
are employed to prepare foods of
all kinds ready to serve. A picnic
haskci, the dchi-ht of old and
young, can now quickly be packed.
Some of the most delicious foods
may be packed, can and all, as they
come from the grocer's.
What a pleasure it will be to be
ready to join in the picnic spirit the
next time the business members of
your family express the. desire to
have a dinner in the woodsl It's
just the simplest thing ever, too.
Like aft valuable accomplishments,
however, it requires thought before
hand. Put in the bottom of the basket
a can of veal or chicken loaf, a can
of Vienna sausage and a can of sar
dines. A bottle of horseradish cream
or horseradish mustard will make a
splendid relish, and mall bottles of
grape juice or grape flavored lemon
ade solve the problem of what to
drink. Also take some cookies.
