Duties of Guests.
No dinner or luncheon Invitation
sent to both a man and his wife
should be accepted by one and refus
ed by the other. If both can not gu
both must stay away.
At any meal it is the part of good
form to accept some of each course
and pretend to eat the food, even
though oiw dots not want it. To re
fuse and alt by with empty place Is
most uncomfortable for the hostess.
Arrive for a meal at the moment
specified In the Invitation, and never
earlier than five minutes before the
dinner, etc., Is served. To be late is
unpardonable, although the distances
to be traversed In large cities and the
unexpected delays guests may expe
rience have made hostesses more len
ient on this point.
If one is staying In the house the
whole art of being a successful guest
Is to conform in all ways to the reg
ular routine, or that mapped out. One
should be prompt at meals, should
take great care not to Interfere with
the servants, the way of doing things
or the hostess' private affairs. To be
tactful, thoughtful and bright Is Im
perative. Privacy at times for both the
stranger ami the housekeeper Is nec
essary, and no thoughtful guest ex
pects to be entertained every moment.
She makes herself a most exhausting
Sugar Cookie.
Two cups of granulated sugar,
One heaping cup of butter and lard
mixed,
Six tablespoons of milk.
Four whole eggs with whites beaten
separately.
Three full teaspoons of baking pow
der, Enough flour to make a dough as
soft as can be handled. Flavor with
one and one-half teaspoons lemon extract.
Crisp Cookies.
-' Cream a cup of butter with 2 cups
of powdered sugar, and 4 well-beaten
eggs, 2 tablespoons of cream, nutmeg
and mace to taste, and enough prepar
ed flour for a soft dough. Roll out
Into a very thin sheet, cut into
rounds and bake la a good oven until
crisp and light brown in color.
One tablespoon of soda.

mix together and put in the pie first, ' person If she does and Is not likely to
fhon taiP thn siiirar lard and flour. : be asked again. The hostess needs
mix all together for crumbs and put j quiet at times to look after the house
on top of the molasses and the rest, hold affairs, and the guest should then
oe auie u amuse nerseii reniuis, i rim
ing or writing notes.
Yet she must be ready to respond
to the call or engagements made for
her by the friend, and, as when a din
ner guest, she must pretend to enjoy
herself even though the contrary Is
the case.
Vinegar Pie.
One egg, one heaping tablespoon of
flour, add one tablespoon of sharp
vinegar and one teacup of cold water,
flavor with nutmeg and bake with one
crust.
Apple Fritters.
One quart of fine sliced cooking
apples.
One quart of flour,
t Three eggs,
A pinch of salt,
Enough sweet milk to make a me
dium batter.
After thoroughly stirring all to
gether drop a spoon full at a time of
the batter In hot lard and fry same
as crulls. Serve with molasses.
Chicken Pot Pie.
Dress a nice young chicken, cut In
small pieces then make a doiffch not
autte as short as pie dough, roll but
not as thin as for pies, cover the bot
tom and sides of a deep pan or roast
er with the dough, then place in a
layer of the chicken and season, then
cut strips of dough am! place over the
chicken, add another layer of chick
en, then strips of dough until the
chicken is all in, then cover with up
per crust well perforated, have the
Apple Butter Recipe.
Twenty-five gallons of cider,
Seventeen gallons of apples.
Twenty-five pounds of granulated
sugar. Boll cider 15 minutes, then
skim and put apples In. Boll then
until almost done before putting sug
ar In.
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
candle! 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
work costs little.
To Keep Cider.
Boll the cider until it becomes a
syrup, skimming off all the sediment
as It raises, add one pound of sugar
to each gallon of syrup, flavor with
essence or lemon anu seai m jug.
When wanted for use weaken with
water.
Cream Horse-Radieh Sauce.
Into one cup white sauce made of
equal quantities of milk and white
stock if convenient, stir one table
spoon butter, three of cream and four
of grated horse-radish. Heat over hot
water and serve.
Cheese and Tomato Omelet.
Beat 6 eggs very . light and pour
them Into a buttered omelet pan and
cook until set. sprinkling with salt
and pepper. When ready to fold, lay
on the omelet slices of tomato and
snrlnkle these thickly with cheese.
Fold the omelet uuon them, transfer
to a hot dish and pour over and
around the omelet a white sauce into
which 2 tablPspoon of grated cheese
have been stirred. Serve Immediate
ly. .
Preserved Green Grapes.
Stem and wash the green grapes
put them In a porcclaln-llned kettle
and Dour boiling water over tnei
T-euve thin on for only a minute to
loosen the skins, then drain. To each
quart of grapes add a cup of water,
return to the fire and boll until ten
der. Strain the fruit and measure
the nnln and add to it two-thirds as
much suear as there Is pulp. Put ln
to the preserving kettle and boll gent-
lv for about flften minutes more, tan
ing care that the sugar and fruit do
not scorch. Skim frequently while
boiling. Pour into glass jars and
seal.
To Remove Paint.
When a house Is being done up
paint is not Infrequently spilt on door
steps, and it is sometimes found very
difficult to remove. In that case
make a strong solution of potash and
wash the steps, simply leaving the so
lution to soak In. In a short time the
paint will become soft, and can then
he washed off with soap and water.
Then use cold water. Paint which
has been left on for some time will
yield to this treatment.
Timbales of Liver.
To a pint of young calf's liver, cook
ed In salt water till tender, then
forced through a meat chopper, add
a cup of fresh crumbs moistened with
a cup of milk or chicken stock, two
beaten eggs, a teaspoon of finely
chopped parsley, few drops of onion
Juice, a tablespoon of chicken oil,
bacon fat or soft butter; add salt and
paprika to season highly; mix and
turn Into buttered tlmbale moulds,
Cook in pan of warm water in mod
erate oven twenty-five minutes. Serve
on warm platter with mushroom
sauce.

Honey As a Food.
The teeth are not Injured by honey,
as Is sometimes the case with candy.
In preserving fruit the formic acid it
contains makes a better preservative
than sugar syrup, and it is also used
In cooking and confectionery. As a
medicine it Is excellent in most lung
and throat affections, and Is often
used with -great benefit In place of
cod liver oil. As a remedy for croup
and colds It Is much appreciated. As
an external application) It is irritating
while clear, and soothing when dilut
ed. It Is laxative and sedative, and
in diseases of the bladder and kid
neys is a sovereign remedy, says Dr.
Holbrook. It has much of the same
effect as wine or stimulants, without
their Injurious effects, and is un
equalled In mead and harvest drinks.
It Is easy of assimilation, and concen
trated, and furnishes the same ele
ments of nutrition as sugar and starch
Imparts warmth and energy.
