KS HOUSEHOLD TALKS HPIfE Henrietta D. GraueJ Which For What Since many splendid metals have eeased to be costly the assortment of utensils in the well-stocked kitchen is positively alarming to the young house keeper who does not have a deep stock of culinary experience to draw on. Which pan or tin is best, she wants to know, for certain things? Then there is the other extreme: the woman who has little room in the kitchenette and must have a modicum of kitchen utensils and make each fill its utmost useful ness Tinware is used for baking tins, cake and cookie sheets and molds and for some small kitchen conveniences if lieavv and of good quality, and well eared for it is most effective for bak ing as it responds so quickly to regu lations of temperature. Iron kettles or highest grade gran ite ware, with well fitted covers are best for pot-roasts and stews. Porcelain enamel, aluminum and granite are equally good for vegetable and fruit cookery. Steel frying pans are best for fry ing, browning and pan broiling, for they are lighter weight than iron spiders and easier to handle. Special iron kettles are made for deep fat fry ing and they have a wire basket in them for holding the articles to be im mersed in the fat. From experiments made by the writer it seems that pies that contain much .iuice are best maked in granite ware plates but for pastry shells for custard and similar pies the tins of woven wire give best satisfaction. Copper utensils are the worst possible containers for food that ye have. The labor necessary to keep it bright con demns it from the first but articles cooked in copper must not bo left iu it a moment for copper and acids form verdigis and this is a poison. If you /> % !

It simply cannot injure. Even cross, sick, fever ish children just love its pleasant taste and mothers can rest easy after giving it, l)ecause it never fails to effect a good "inside cleansing." For thirty years "California Syrup of Figs" has been recommended by physi cians as the ideal stomach, liver and bowel cleanser. Millions of families who are well informed use nothing else, but recently there has come a flood of spurious fig syrups, so we warn the public to ask plainly at drug stores for a 50-eent bottle of "California Syrup of Figs," and see that it is prepared by "California Fig Syrup Company." We make no cheaper size. Hand back any "counterfeit" with contempt.—Adv. have copper to clean make a weak so lution of oxalic acid crystals and water and immerse the utensil in this but guard your fiugers for the acid bites. Rinse the copper very well and polish it with pumice stone and oil. Keep your cookiug utensils in sight and keep them in order and in good con dition. The care of them is quite as important as the proper choice of them. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS "Will you please explain how you make the old-fashioned walnut frames into pretty modern trays as suggested in your column some days ago?" Reply.—Remove the picture from frame and replace it with brightly fig ured chintz. Fasten the back board in firmly with tacks and cover the back with felt glued on. Now buy a pair of brass handles and attach one at each end. These trays are almost identical with those new tea trays of the fash ionable world and are of all sizes, and round, square or oblong. * * * "How can a rural dweller get hulled barley? We raise if but the miller does | not hull it and our dealer does not sell it." 1 Reply.—Send to a grocer in your 'nearest city and have the 1 arley sent Ito you by parcel post.' Someone will i put barley into a fancy package and double its price some day and then we (will all realize it is one of our best "health" foods. It is also a cheap cereal as a cupful cooked equals a quart. * » » ' "Is condensed milk harmful?" i Reply.—Condensed milk is a concen |trated food of great value. About fifty | firms are making it in lis country and lone alone claims to put out 300,000,000 'cans a year. It is wholesome.

M«i(l £/ Company (CONTINUED.) "Answer,me out- question trutnruuy. Miss O'Connell. Is there an affair of the heart?" Peg looked down on the ground mournfully and replied: "Me heart is In New York—with me father." "Has any one made love to you since you have been here?" Fog looked up at him sadly and shook her head. A moment later a mischievous look came into her eyes, and she said, with a roguish laugh: "Sure one man wanted to kiss me, an' 1 boxed his ears, an' another—al most man—asked me to marry hlm." "Oh!" ejaculated the lawyer. "Me Cousin Alaric." "And what did you say?" questioned Hawkes. "I towld him I'd rather have Mi chael.'" He looked at her In open bewilder ment and repeated: "Michael?" "Me dog," explained Peg, and her eyes danced with merriment. Hawkes laughed heartily and re llevedly. As Hawkes looked at her, radiant lu her springlike beauty, her clear, healthy complexion, her dazzling teeth, her red-gold hair, he felt a sudden thrill go through him. Ills life had t>een so full, so concentrated on the development of his career, that he bad never permitted the feminine note to obtrude itself on his life. His effort had been rewarded by an unusually large circle of Influential clients who "Will ye let me have £20?" suddenly asked Peg. yielded him an exceedingly handsome revenue. He had heard whispers of a magistracy. His public future was as sured. But his private life was arid. The handsome villa in Pelham crescent bud no one to grace the head of the table, save ou the occasional visits of his aged mother or the still rarer ones ot a married sister. And here was he In the full prime of life. Yielding to some uncontrollable im pulse, he took her little hand in both of his own. Hawkes was not to be denied now. He went ou in his softest and most persuasive accents: "1 know one who would give you all these—a man who has reached the years of discretion, one in whom the follies of youth have merged into the knowledge and reserve of early middle age: a man of position and of means; a man who can protect you, care for you. admire you—and be proud to marry you. "Miss O'Connell—may I say Mar jraret?— 1 was your uncle's adviser, his warm personal friend. We spoke free ly of you for many weeks before he died. It was his desire to do some thing for you that would change your whole life and make it full and happy snd contented. Were your uncle alive f know v*f nothlne that would irive him greater pleasure than for his oiu friend to take you, your young life, Into his care. Miss O'Connell, 1 am the man!" "Stop It!" she cried. "What's the matther with you men this mornin'V Ye'd think 1 was some great lady the way ye're all offerln' me yer hands an' yer names an' yer Influences an' yer dignities. Stop it! Give me that mon ey an' let me go." Hawkes paused. "Don't give your answer too hastily. I know It must seem abrupt—one might almost say brutal. But lam alone In the world; you are alone. Neither of us has contracted a regard for any one else. And, In addition to that, there would be no occasion to marry un til you are twenty-one. There!" Peg suddenly burst into a paroxysm of laughter. "Am 1 to consider that a refusal?" "Ye may. What would 1 be dota' mnrryin' the likes of yon? Answer me that?" "That Is final?" he queried. "Absolutely, completely an' entirely final. Thank ye very much, sir," she added. "An' may I have the £20." "Certainly. Here it Is." And tie band ed her the money. "I'm much obliged to ye. An* I'm sorry if 1 hurt ye by laughin' just now. But I thought ye were Jokln', 1 did." She hurried across the room to the staircase. When she was halfway up the stairs Jarvis entered and was Im mediately followed by Jerry. "Peg!" be said gently, looking up at her. "I'm goin" back to me father In half an hour!" And she went on up the stairs. * As .lerry moved slowly away from the staircase he met Montgomery Hawkes. CHAPTER XXVII. New Revelations. THY. how do you do. Sir Ger %/«/ aid?" and Hawkes went f y across quickly with out stretched hand. "Hello. Hawkes." replied Jerry, too preoccupied to return the act of salu tation. Instead he nodded in the di rection Peg had gone and questioned: "What does she mean—going in a few minutes?" "She is returning to America. Our term of guardianship Is over. She ab solutely refuses to stay here any long er. My duties In regard to ber, out side of the annual payment provided by ber late uncle, eud today." replied the lawyer. "I think not. Hawkes." "1 beg your pardon?" "As the chief executor of the late Mr. Kingsnorth's will 1 must be satis fied that its conditions are complied with in the spirit as well as to tbo letter." said Jerry authoritatively "Mr. Kingsuortii expressly stipulat ed that a year was to elapse before any definite conclusion was arrived at. So far only a month has passed." "But she insists on returning to her father," protested Mr. Hawkes. "Have you told her the conditions of the will?" "Certainly not. Mr. Kingsnorth dis tinctly stated she was not to know them." "Except under exceptional circum stances. 1 consider the circumstances most exceptional." "I am afraid 1 cannot agree with you, Sir Gerald." "Tlmt is II pity. But It doesn't alter my intention." "And may I nsk what that inten tion is?" "To carry out the spirit of MT. Kingsnorth's bequest." "And what do you consider the spir it?" "I think we will best carry out Mr. Kingsnorth's last wishes by making known the conditions of his bequest to Miss O'Connell and then let her decide whether she wishes to abide by them or not." Mrs. Chichester came into the reoo and wont straight to Jerry. At the same time Alartc burst In through the garden and greeted .lerry and Hawkes. "1 beard you were here"— began Mrs. Chichester. Jerry interrupted her anxiously. "Mrs. Chichester. I was entirely to blame for last night's unfortunate business. Don't visit your displeasure on the poor little child. Please don't!" Jarvis came down the stairs with a pained, not to say mortified, expression on his face. Underneath his left arm be held tightly a shabby little bag and a freshly wrapped up parcel. In his right hand, held far away from his body, nas the melancholy and pic turesque terrier, Michael. Mrs. Chichester looked at him In hor ror. "Where are you going with those— things?" she gasped. "To put them in a cab, madam," an swered the humiliated footman. "Your aVf.-e's orders." ''Put those articles In a travelleg bag. Use one of my daughter's." or dered the old lady. "Tour niece objects, madam. She BPS she'll take nothing away she didn't bring with her." The grief stricken woman turned away as Jnrvls passed out. Alaric tried to comfort her But the strain of the morning had been too great He looked cheerfully at Jerry and smiled as he said: "1 even offered to marry her If she'd stay. Couldn't do more than that could I?" Jerry returned Alaric's smile as he asked: "You offered to marry her?" Alaric nodded. "Poor little wretch!" Down the stairs came Peg nnd Ethel. Mrs. Chichester looked at Peg through misty eyes and said reproachfully: "Why that old black dress? Why not fine of the dresses 1 gave you?" "This Is thp way I left me fnther. an' thig is the way I'm goin' back to him!" replica reg sturdily. "»<»u re not going. Peg," said Jerry quietly and positively "Who's goin" to stop me?"
