KEEP BRIGHT AND YOU
WILL KEEP BUSY
Electric light is the magnet that draws trade.
The bright store is the "hypnotic eye" of business.
People .can no more resist the attraction of a bril
liant, Electrically lighted store than they can resist
the clarion call of a brass band.
Is your competitor with the Electrically illum
inated show windows, bright interior and sparkling
Electric Sign getting an advantage over you?
The moth never flutters around the unlighted
candlel Up-to-date stores nowadays consider shop
window lighting a necessity, whether they remain
open after dark or not. Competition forces modern
methods.
A show window brilliantly illuminated with
Electric light will make many a sale "the night
before.'' Electric light compels attention, makes
easy the examination of your display, shows goods
in detail and fabrics in their true colors.
And don't neglect the Electric Sign. It is
soliciting "tomorrow's" business every moment it is
lighted burning you name in the public mind. It
is a solicitor that never becomes weary never stops

done put In roasting ears, with outer
husks and silks removed, but with a
thin layer of Inner husk tied alMitit
the ears. Steam till done and serve
at once. The potatoe will hold the
corn up out of the water. If extra
work Is going on. the kettle may be

Good for picnics also.
Quince Jelly.
A nice Jelly can be made with the
skins, cores and hard part of th quin
ces. Put them In a kettle and cover
them with water, cook slowly until
they are soft and the flavor Is ex
tracted; then strain through a cloth.
Measure the liquid and put over the
fire In a preserving kettle and boll 20
minutes. Measure pr many pint! of
granulated sugar as there are pints
of Juice, put the sugar on tins an-l
place In the oven fo heat. When the
juice has boiled the required time add
the Juice of one lemon for each quart
and stir In the hot sugar. Let the
liquid boil up once and take from the
fire. Turn the liquid Jelly Into glasses,
but do not cover until the Jelly Is
cold.
Let this stand a
ready for use.
Those who have tender feet will
find much relief by a frequent change
of shoe. It Is not only hygcnle. but
economical as well to change one
sliiws often. Two pairs of shoes used
alternately will last a long as three
pairs used successively.
After laying a carpet use a mop of
clean cloth wrung dry from warm
water to which has been added two
tablesMM)tiful of turpentine. Wipe
the carpel all around the room f'r
six or more Inches from the baiehourd.
This will serve to check moths.
Apply turpentine on carpets under
heavy furniture not on castors or that
Is not easily moved.
If you are troubled with fever blist

gently, over the surface just as soon
as you notice that a blister Is begin
ning to develop. Camphor applied In
the same way Is also t-mracloua.

Chicken Pie.
Chicken pie made by this recipe Is
excellent cold: Save the neck, the
tips of tne wings, the gizzard and the
liver of the chickens, and the feet.
Pour boiling water over the feet;
leave them a moment, then pull off
the outer skin and nails. After these
are removed put the feet with the
other parts. They are quite Import
ant, as they contain the gelatine
which forms the gravy around the
chicken when the pie Is cold Into a
delicious Jelly. Stew the skinned f"et,
wing tips, neck and giblets, which
have been well , cleaned. In Just
enough water to cover them, add a
slice of onion, one of carrot, and let
the water simmer gradually till It is
reduced one-half; add a few drops of
lemon juice or a teaspoonful of tara
gon vinegar and some Jellied stock, If
necessary. Pour this gravy around
and over the chicken In the pie and
cover It with a paste, and bake It
until the crust Is a fine brown. It Is
better to strain the gravy before pour
ing it over the chicken. Some people
add little egg-balls or slices of the
yolks of hard-boiled egg and rings
made of the whites.
Piccalilli.
One peck of green tomatoes, chop
ped fine; put In layers In a Jar with
layers of salt; let stand overnight;
drain, and add eight onions, eight pep
pers, two large (or three small heads
of cabbage, all chopped fine; whole
spices to suit taste, one cup of sugar
if you wish, vinegar to make moist
enough; heat It all up together. Can
be canned or put In a jar; keeps fine.
