If red taffy apples are desired, substitute white sugar fur brown ami dissolve cinnamon drops In' the boiling syrup. . . Glace fruit and nuts are another form uf sweets that aro healthful, nor aro they difficult to make. However, perfect results are more nearly assured in all of these rec ipes 'if candy thermometers are used. Dip the fruits and nuts In a su gar syrup, by means of a long' pin or thin knitting needle.

Berlin Theaters Unite To Cut Actors' Wages DKIU.IN. (AP) Highly paid stars and superstars of the llerlln stage are walking about with long faces these days. A drastic cut in pay is in the offing fur them. Already the national federation of stage producers has agreed that the fees of stars must come down, and now the managers In the vari ous: cities are getting together to put tho verdict Into effect. The Perlln t heat Heal directors have a great diversity of Interests and viewpoints, nnd It Is usually difficult to get them together on any proposition. They are unani mous, however, in agreeing, first. that this year's theatrical season Is the worst In . years, and second. that the prominent stars are charg ing such exorbitant fees that prices of admission must be boosted to a polnt where tho public cannot af ford to patronize the theatre. It has been tentatively agreed lhat llerlln stars aro to be paid from 75 to 400 marks a night. It remains to be seen whether actors and actresses accustomed, many of them, to J00 murks und more a night will accept this drastic reduction.
