Tables and all utensils with which the product is to come In contact must be scrupulously clean preferably scalded with boiling water. V Freh, Sound Troilurts The fruits or vegetables to be canned must be fresh, sound, and neither too green nor too ripe. Young vegetables give better results than old, woody or tough ones. Aim to get the products into the Jars as quickly as Is practicable. Kvery minute's delay lessens flavor and adds to the difficulty of canning. Such products as green peas or sweet corn are not fit to can If they are off the vines more than a few hours. Peas for canning should be picked early In the morning or during a cool speH and rushed Into the cans. Don't let peas stand after they are shelled.

A single-period processing with steam under pressure of ten to fifteen pounds. In a pressure canner or ejoker. Is strong ly recommended for the handling; of such products, for by Its use Iobs due to In sufficient sterilization may be largely eliminated. Intermittent Boiling For the benefit of those to whom the Intermittent boiling or processing may not be familiar, It may be explained that this consists merely of placing the cans or Jars of material to be treated In the boiler or canner, and boiling for the required length of time on each of three successive days. By many this is considered a rater procedure than the use of a single, long period of boiling. If you employ this method, when tne Jars are being given the second and third boiling treatments, jou should loosen the clamps or unscrew the lids sightly Just before you place them again In tho boiling walei. Tighten covers at the end of each boiling. As the seal of the Jars Is loosened slightly during each boiling, the metal-capped I Jars, sometimes called "hermetic" Jar, are not suited io .niv-minicm n, Jars with self-sealing wire-clamped tops are most satisfactory to use In Inter mittent canning. Save your screw-top tar for nacldiic fruits and tomatoes, ',whlch require but one period of boiling In a water-natn outiit. Canning In Metal Wash the cans carefully and scald with boiling wator to make certain that they are absolutely clean. In the case of cans, prepare the product the same as If it were to be packed In Jars Fill the cans Solder on the tops.

It has made me happy ever since That he should say that He, a man among men A man with the sure way that comes only from handling big things, and men And I Interested him. when I had given up all hope, because I was mvsclf was modest But my little triumph has alloy. It tuns through It all The problem o Bennle He savs he loves me, and ho thinks It, too And I must do something to make him forget At last 1 have hit on a plan By my advice he would studv at the Art League this winter But It Is secondary, a time-filler While Bennle's whole heart Is set on going to war I shall write to Bennle's mother, mv great-aunt, whom 1 see seldom. I shall tell her Bennle loves me Is bent on marrying me Swears he will do wild things If I will not marry him And says many foolish things. .Foolish, but they worry me. I shall tell her I am six years older than Bennle. But I am very fond of Bennle Ive him, in fact But I shall tell her it is In a big-sisterly way I shall wtite her, too, that Bennle's one aim Is to go to war. If she will let him do that, it will save him. But otherwise I do not know where his madness ma) lead him Nor where my pity shall make me follow. Tho letter Is written I feel relieved. It would be such n splendid way out It will make a man of Bennle And though he is onlv nineteen, he is not too young to serve his country The die Is cast. I can only hope she will see It as I do. Oeorge Arnold Is coming again to night And Judge Ashby. 1 cannot but wonder what he Is. A while ago I went to Mrs. Ashby's room She lay on her couch The glaring morning sun streamed over her. I could not but notice the sallowneBS of her skin And the deep lines cut In her face They nre erased under a delicate make up But I almost felt as If she were wor ried, frightened As If she would tell me something, but had laid a restraining finger on her lips. With all her charm and fascination, can she not hold her husband? Or is he Jealous of the attention she attracts'.' Or Is It something else? I am curious I admit to see the hus band of the bewitching Mrs. Ashby. But not as curious aa I am happy. For George Arnold Is coming tonight.
