You Might Try Thou. If Cranberries Are Tough. Some time cranlierrle In tho market are not all the housewife could wish, but a bit of baking sodn removes much of tho bitter taste and Improve the aiiure or Jelly. Bort a quart of berries carefully, discarding all aoft ones, as they Impair the flavor. WasU tliem and cover with cold woter. Add half a evol tmspoonful of aoda and bring quickly to the boiling point Watch carefully, and a aoon a the berrlea begin to pop oiion pour off the Uark colored water and cover agalu with fresh water. Cook till all the berrloa are aoft rub through a coarse leve to remove the tough skin. Add a much augar aa you have berry pulp and cook together about Ove minute. four luto a mold to cool. Cranberry rio. Select large era berrle and cut each ono l1iolf with a aharp knife. l'"or one pie you will need a cupful aud a half of berrlea. Mix with them a tablespoouful of flour, one cupful of augar and one- half cupful of butter. Line a pie plato with plain pastry, fill with the berries, then cover with strip of pan try laid on crisscross, latticework fashlou and buko slowly until tho crust la' brown. If preferred, the cranberries can be stewed first before putting Into the crusL , Aloohol and tho Hair. If tho hair la dumy aud unmanage able after a Journey of any sort try uslns alcohol to mnke It fluffy. The alcohol will dry In a few moments, and the hulr will be ready then to ar range. Many womeu who have taken a railroad Journey of several hours' du ration to a wedding or dance nave found their hair, owing to tho heat and dust cf tho Journey, quite heavy and dirty and have despaired of get ting It In shape In time for the restlvl tles. A shaiuKo takes too loug to be Indulged lu w hile ono U dressing, and sometimes It leave tho hair too fluffy for Immediate managing. To get back to tho alcohol treatment, nart the hair and rub a llttlo alcohol on a piece of gauze on the scalp until It la frco from dust Then rub the hair about the brows and cars and tho nape of the neck with the alcohol. Of courae It should first have been brush ed aa free as possible from dust Then let the hair hang loosely until the alco hol has dried out The hair will be light aud fluffy. To Keep Caka Frash. Most housewives know that an ap ple In the cake box will help to keep cake frosh and moist, but If there Is cake In the house and no applo put a glass of oloar water In tho box and tho somo result will be achieved. A 8alad, Pretty and Palatable. For a very effective as well as pal stable salad take lottuco, green pep pers aud canued asparagus tips. Make a bed of lottuco leaves. Cut tho pop pers In rings about one half Inch thick (the Inside taken out of course). Stand the ring upright on the lottuce and while holding It place the asparagus tips in (lying flat not standing) until the ring Is over half full. After that the ring will stand of iUclf. Bervo with French dressing. The idea of not entirely tilling the ring is to give the effect of a basket It is moro con venient to servo on separate or individ ual plates. The Kitchen Floor. KItchon floors that are not covered become woru and splintered often with' much scrubbing. Rather than suffer risk getting splinters from them have the floor planed smooth and the cracks filled with a wood filler. Then nib eriulo oil over It repeatedly at In tervals. The oil burdens, und stains do not readily sink Into the wood Nover wax or varnish a floor that must bo washed with water. Wtttor will quickly discolor polished hard wood floors. . . raul Itlknrd never knew a fathers or a mothers cure, ooio um imio, having died wheu ho was an Infaut Ills grand mother, who hud quarreifco with her daughter ou account of her marrying Herman itlkard, bad never seen the child, but bud paid llleraliy for his supiHirt and education. Ho bad ild when I'uul was In eollcgo and had left him somo mean. On being graduated he waa to go to on aunt who waa to take tho place of only relative. When Paul appred at nis Aum Caroline' house a singular loowug little old lady with a pair or cork screw curl received hlin In a room o shaded from the light that he did not see her till ho advanced to meet hlin. You ore Paul Ulkard, my alstcr i," ahe sold, "and 1 am your Aunt Caroline.

A young girl advanced to meet him, cordially welcoming hlin. f rom mo mouiout be sow her and listened to ner klndlv words he knew ho had met one with whom he would be congeuiui. l am Claudia." alio said. "I have heard a great deal about you from my dear mother by adoption and I assure you for year have felt an Interest in ono who has had no one to take the placo of father, mother, sister or brother. I hope you will now have ono lu your aunt to Oil something of the gap. As for me-well, we must con sider ourselves at least cousins. Uut Aunt Caroiino.ohowed no Inter est In nie whatever. "She will.

I'uul wondered If the girl would call the old woman unselfish had she beard her declare that ho Intended keeping her from a husband to administer to her own wants. However, his aunt aud all the world were forgotten In the delightful evening he spent with Claudia Chace. Occasionally she would refer to tho aunt, and In one instance as a very romantic person, t'pon this Paul burst Into a laugh, at which MU f'lnudln seemed a trifle offended. Paul lost his heart The return of the old lady aud a decloratlon of love came about near the same time. I aut proposed one evening and bis aunt was to return the next morning. "Are you sure." asked Claudia se- ru.wiv "that lii doing this you are ncilnir honorably T" inni tini-tixl "1 had forgotten." he aald, "that before my aunt's departure she gave mo warning." Which was?" Why, the fact Is," said Toul. "the old curmudgeon told me sne woum nover consent to your marriage since she intended to keep you single for herself." "That being the case, I must decline mir nrnnosal. I owe her too much and love her too well to marry with out her permission." what?" "I will beg her on my knees to give you to ma Wo will both tuko care of her be her companions." "What? Could you live with a cur Bludgeon?" "For you I could live with a wolf." The girl burst Into a laugh. "Very well," she sal "You may ask her, and we shall sea If she Is as selfish as you think." The next morning Paul was Inform ed that the old lady bad returned and wished to see htm In the library. He entered tho same dimly lighted room as before. "Well, young man." said the crone, "you've been" hero for three week9 with my daughter. 1 dare say you've been trying to rob me of ber." "My dear aunt I would not rob yon of her for the world. But 1 beg of yon not to separate me from one I love. Together we will" There was a rustle behind a portiere, and a benevolent looking indy emerg ed. At the same time sundry articles of attire and "make up" fell from the nunt revealing the face and figure of Claudia. "Permit me to Introduce you to your Aunt Caroline," said the girl, with a merry twinkle In hor ey"e. "Your requewt Is granted," said the real aunt "My dear boy, Claudia and I have long looked forward to partial ly relieving -the loneliness you have endured since your birth. I concocted this scheme, hoping to give you a wife to love you, and Claudia has carried It out splendidly." "And you shall be mother to us both," replied Paul.
