of providing fall aud winter des
serts. The more we use apples
the more we appreciate their possibili
ties. They may be made up as the
simplest of viands or they may be the
Ingredients In desserts as elnborate and
attractive as anything that may be
served.
Simple, Yet Attractive.
Sugared Apples. Take seven or eight
apples, core, peel and cut in halves and
set in a baking pan cored side up.

eupfuls of sugar, cover closely and let
boll gently for half nn hour. Remove
cover, set in oven and bake brown.
Serve cold.

two eggs until dry", then add a cup
ful of sweetened apple sauce and mil.
From the yolks of the eggs make a

a pinch of salt and adding to the boil

dish and add the apple and white of
egg.

OYSTERS COOKED IN THE OVEN.
MONli the various ways of pre
paring oysters one that recom
mends Itself to most cooks on ac
count of the savory results aud also
because of its convenience is to bake
them in the oven.
It is best not to salt oysters until
after they are cooked. This prevents
their shriveling or becoming hard.
Well Flavored Viands.
Deviled Oysters. Chop up about two
dozen firm, fat oysters, add to the oys
ters a cupful of cream, a half cupful ol
cracker crumbs, a tablespoonful ol
melted butter und a dush of salt. But
ter some individual baking dishes ol
empty oyster shells ond till them with
the combination. Bake in the oven foi
twenty minutes.
Oysters In Blankets. Take twelvi
slices of nice thin bucon and twelre
large oysters. Place an oyster on each
slice of bacon and roll the bacon
around the oyster. Then transfix with
a skewer. Arrange the rolls on a wire
rack and put in the oven until the ba
con is browned. Serve very hot.
Baked In Shells.
Oysters In the Shells. Take large,
nice looking shells or cook the oysters
in small individual baking dishes.
Clean the shells with a stiff brush, re
serving the deepest for use. Roll each
oyster in melted butter seasoned with
minced parsley and pepper. Arrange
in the shells, sprinkle with lemon Juice
and cover with grated bread crumbs.
Place in rows in n baking pan and
bake in a quick oven. Serve In the
shells, season with salt Just before
sending to the table.
French Baked Oysters. After trim
ming the oysters, put them back Into
the shells. Place In a saucepan a lit
tle butter, and when It Is melted add
a little pursley chopped very fine and
some chopped shallots, a tablespoonful
of white wine vinegar, the Juice of a
lemon, a pluch of salt and a little red
pepper. Leave the saucepan on a slow
fire until the vinegar Is boiled down,
and at this point add two small table
spoonfuls of bread crumbs fried In but
ter und a tablespoonful of butter.
When the whole Is well mixed pour It
over the oysters, so that the shells are
well filled. Place the dish containing
the oysters in a hot oven and serve
after a few minutes.
OPPOSITION.
The coldest bodice warm with
opposition; the hardest sparkle
lu collision. Burke.
Nature la upheld by antago
nism. Passions, resistance, dan
ger, are educators. We acquire
the strength we have overcome.
Kmersou.
The greater the obstacle the
more glory In overcoming It, aud
dMIciiltle are but the maids
of honor to set off the virtue.
Mulrcrv.
IDEAL.
There are two kind of the
Ideal. One tends toward expres
sion; the other animates all kinds
of lulsir aud secures results.
When a practical man says he
can do without the Ideal he doe
not understand bis business.
When a prosaic moralist says
the same aud takes a contract to
reform or to establish he throw
up the material that he must
work In. It Is Intangible, but
has a pressure of so tunny pounds
to the Inch, and he stands drench
ed In It while he pretends he does
not breathe John Weiss.
THE GENTLER SEX.
Man for the field, aud woman
for the hearth:
Man for the sword, and for the
ueedle she.
Man with the head, and woman
with tiie heart;
Man to command, and woman
to obey.
Alfred Tennyson.
One reason why women are
forbidden to preach the gosix'l Is
that they would persuade with

A man protesting against error
is ou the way toward uniting
himself with all men that be
lieve In truth Carlyle.
THC MIGHT TO BE ONESELF.
SupiHise I could make 110,000
a your as the manager of a trust,
but suppose my happiness would
Ik? promoted by managing a little
business of my own out of which
I might not even make .'1.000
And supiKKe what is true that
I should be prevented by the
trusts from running my little
business and should be broken
up If I tried to run It Have I
not then been deprived of the one
thing in lire that this republic
ought to give a man his chance
to be happy? If this continues
there will be great captains of
finance and industry who will
wade through slaughter to a
throne and shut the gales of
mercy on mankind. They will
take the young man of today and
crush out every little hit of
personal ambition which these
young men may have anil make
them only cogs In a great In
ilustrlal system, and our boasted
democracy, where men were free,
will cease to exist save In name.
Too long have we contemplated
great riches as the source of
happiness. Contentment is the
great thing for a people, and no
people can be content whose men
may not engage In any business
that they may choose which is
not immoral In its character, and
many a man Is happier In the
failure of his own plans than he
would be In the success of a sys-tem.-Oovernor
