ubc some of their own ideas or some
of Mrs. Blank's, who always does
make such perfect jelly, and then
they are hltterly disappointed and
very much hurt because they have
failure on their hands.
You -know that if the jelly is
sirupy, sticky or a tough sugar mass
it is a failuro, and you have not only
wasted your time but also the ma
terials.
Now, in order that you may know
just what is necessary to make jelly,
there must be a product in the fruit
that is called pectin. This pectin is
lacking in some fruits, while in
ftthfirs the amount is so small that
unless it is added in the form of
combination you will be unable to
make good jelly. This pectin is
found in fruits that are partially
ripe. It disappears or is found in
very small and insufficient amounts
In ripe fruit, while it has almost dis
appeared in over-ripe fruits.
This means that ripe and over-ripe
fruits will not do for successful jelly
making. Right now I hear some
housewives say that they have used
that kind of fruit and made jelly,
perhaps you have, bu more fre
quently you have a soft, sirupy,
sticky jelly that is anything but a
.success.
Play safe. Do not use ripe or
over-ripe fruit. Pectin is a carbo-
irJtfdrate, and as the fruit ripens it

The usual
jelly maker
r
prepares tne iruit juice is to use
twenty-five pounds of water to each
100 pounds of fruit This means that
you will need one pint of water to
ever four pounds of fruit.
Mash the fruit well, using a potato
masher. Cook and then strain. Now
make your test for pectin by using
one tablespoon of alcohol to one
tablespoon of hot fruit juice. Stir to
thoroughly mix. If the mas3 is a
solid one add seven-eighths cup of
sugar to each cup of fruit juice. If
it breaks up into small lumps use
three-quarters cup of sugar. When
making the pectin test always use
tho cooked fruit juice. Heat de
velops the pectin. If this method is
used with the raw or uncooked juice
it will not give results.
Two methods may be used to
strain or filterythe fruit juice: the

Currant Butter
Measure the pulp that has been
rubbed through a sieve after tno
dripping of the juice and add one
quart water and one and one-half
cups of sugar. Stir to dissolve tho
sugar and then cook slowly, stirring
frequently until thick like jam.
To Make Spiced Currant Butter
Place in a square of cheesecloth
Two tablespoons of cinnamon,
One teaspoon of nutmeg,
One-half teaspoon of cloves,
One-half teaspoon of ginger.
Tio loosely and put in the butter,
Removo before pouring it into the
containers. This butter may be
stored in crocks, jars and bowls,
covered with paraffin and then again
with cardboard.
Spiced Currant Preserve
Place in a preserving kettle
Four pounds of currants,
Three pounds of sugar,
One cup of water,
Spice bag.
Cook slowly until thick like jam
and then put into hot sterilized jars.
Adjust the rubbers and lids and par
tially tiehten. Place in a hot-water
bath and process for fifteen minutes.
Seal and store.
To make a plain currant preserve
just leave out the spice bag. Use
the same amount of spice as for cur
rant butter.
Bar le Due
This delicious French conserve is
easily made at home. Place two
quarts of prepared currants in a
saucepan and add two cups of water.
Bring to a boil and cook for fifteen
minutes, then drain off the juice,
measure and add two cups of sugar
to each cup of fruit juice Stir until
the sugar is dissolved and then bring
to a boil. Cook for ten minutes.
Add two pounds of currants. Cook
slowly until very thick. Store in the
usual manner as for jellies. Use
pulp left after straining juice for
fruit butter.
Currant Juice
To bottle the currant juice place
six quarts of the prepared currants
in a preserving kettle and add three
quarts of water. Bring to a boil and
mash the fruit well. Now add two
pounds of sugar. Let boil again and
then fill into sterilized bottles.
Place the bottles in a hot-water bath
for fifteen minutes. Cork. Cool and
then cover the tops with paraffin or
scaling.

A Dallj Fashion Talk by riorcnec Rose
IT MUST be n terrible shock for those
who were intent upon having the
women take up standardized dress o'r
moic masculine attire, to gaze upon the
daintj feminine clothes that have come
, with the anticipation of pence. It was
tno uniform tnat led to mucn oi me
discussion last jenr regarding the stnnd
nrrilrcd dress and the seeming desire of
the women to wear a uniform. While
of course it wns necessary for many of
the women to wear the uniform be
cause they were engaged in work which
demanded it, others were Interested in
the uniform "because it was n sort of
fad.
I could never believe thnt women
renlly loved that style of clothing. How
could it be so when there nre exquisite
materials to tempt them? At any rate,
it has not taken long, for the women to
tire of the uniform fad.

Lieutenant B Defends His Honor
To the Iron Division poet After
giving your little poem due considera
tion, I must confess that I'm at a loss
to understand just exactly what you do
mean. I wonder If you really know. Or
perhaps I'm n little dull of compre
hension. Onc.minute you nre throwing
bricks and the next you seem to admit,
rather doubtfully, that the "K. U. II.
C." might possibly be n good thing.
Chiefly, however, you devote most of
your time In telling the readers what
you think of me. Under the circum
stances, I Iccl called upon to defend
myself as far as I think necessary.
First of nil, you seem to question my
right to use the title of lieutenant. I
assuro you that, when I wrote my first
letter, I happened to bo whnt is com
monly known ns n "Shavetail."
Although I hnvc since been discharged
it seems advisable to stick to this pen
name" to nvoid confusion.
Second, I have never seen Camp Dlx,
I'm sorry to say (for your sake). Is
that going to mnkc any difference In
jour opinion? I suppose you had visions
of mo bedecked in the official Q. M.
insignia, cutting up a perfectly good
desk with a pair of spurs.
Again I hnve to disappoint you. I'm
not In the habit of advertising my mili
tary career, but for your sake I'll say
that I enlisted as a "buck private"
early in April, 1017. It so happens
that I wns in a machine-gun battalion
of the Twenty-ninth Division (Blue nnd
Grny). Is it necessary to say any
more? It seems to me that jou have
taken too much for granted.
v You claim that a wound received in
battle hurts more than n broken heart.
Personally, never having been in love1,
I'm not in n position to say.
However, I know of a man who wns
wounded a couple of times and who
came buck home to find that his brlde-to-bc
had married some one else. Being
verv much lu love with this girl, he
naturally must linve felt nnj thing but
'inppy over this state of affairs. I have
his word for it that he is going through
more "hell" right now than he did
during his entire stay "over there."
Some people, you know, can stand more
phjsicnl pain than mental, others are
just the opposite. The whole question is
governed by the nature of the "beast,"
I suppose.
You say I formed the K. U. II. C. I
THE LAST TWENTY MINUTES
BEFORE YOU GO TO BED
Can Mean tho Difference" Between Beauty and Unattractive
ness Do You Go in for Keeping Up Your.Loolts? .
rpiIERE is no use talking. It takes
X will power to be young and beau
tiful," said the woman who was both
to the woman who wasn't cither. "Do
jou think sometimes nt night when I'm
tired that I don't long to get out of my
clothes as quickly as possible, slight my
evening prayers nnd simply dive ex
hausted Into bed nnd stay put? Well,
I dof And for pity's sake, you don't
think I'm lonclng to stand at the
open window nnd do breathing exercises
when I've been yearningly iuuikiuk ui
my bed since 3 o'clock In the afternoon?
"I'm not any more anxious to stay

other tired woman, but I know for au

A i i... win nnwer to make her
WQMAN does have to stick pins
i i., ilil nnwer to make her
go faithfully through the simplest boH
of beautifying proces before she goes
to bed. Most women nre very tired at
night. Busy mothers', for instance, and
business women. Nothing looks so good
as a turned down bed ready to slide
Into.
If a woman could only rcnllze the
Importance of this twenty minutes or so
devoted to beautifying before she goes,
to bed, and the aimost unbelievable
things thnt can bo accomplished In it,
I do not think she vyould ever neglect
It. No treatment for thin nnd straggly
hnlr, however effective it may be,wlll
produce lovely hair if it is not faith
fully ndhcred to. No skin trcntment
can give a fresh pink complexion un
less you repeat it night after night.
But tho wonderful part of it Is wonders
can be accomplished if you do make up
jour minu to seep at lti
All women cannot be beautiful, but
every woman can be pretty and good
to look upon. If lack of circulation has
slvcn her a sallow and indifferent skin',
let her 'take a corny ih physical cul
ture or go to the library nnd get a
good book on exercise and then follow
hcr(own course of exercises. This will
give color and vitality to the skin and
the effect is not only outward, but In
ward. Life seems Jiorc, is intensely
more, worth living when the blood is
coursing through your bodyns it should.
Thero is new energy that makes you
'tackle the old work with, conquering
force nnd fresher interest. ' (
LET n woman take inventory of her
self and her neglected charms. A
mirror is n good friend, though often
a ctuel one. Face the defects one by
one and then mnke up your mind to keep
everlastingly nt It until you conquer
