which has ben seen at ao many wed
dings In recont seasons, never reach
th point where feelings and th
decencle of life ara actually outraged.
The pinch of rice and tha whir satin

wedding enthusiasm, but the (linrtng

persons who wllL not abuse tha trust

I am sure Mrs. "VT. C. B. will thank
you. as I di, most heartily Tor coming:
to the reecue with a "tried recipe." I
must explain, however, that I was not
"skeptical aa to the vlrtuea of a purely
vegetable mincemeat," for my family
"went vegetarian" for some years be
fore I was born, and although by the
time I arrived on the scene a mixed
diet had again become the rule, certain
traditions and dishes remained to pre
serve the , memory of the vegetarian
epoch. Therefore I woe brought tip. so
to speak, on "purely vegetable" mince
plea, and was. In fact, for many years
extremely skeptical aa to the vlrtuea
of any mincemeat not "purely vege
table." In fart. I atill prefer mincemeat
without meat for my own eating, and
find it easier of digestion than the
more complicated mixtures. My only
doubt waa whether green tomatoes
could form quite as well flavored a
baals as ripe apples a doubt which
I still venture to retain, though I

May I bosst a little and tell of a
compliment I once received of which
I am very proud? For several years I
boarded with an old lady who was an
excellent cook. Sometimes her friends
used to say to her: ' "I should think
you would hate to have a domestic
aclence teacher boarding with you. She
must be so critical and hard to please
and all that." To which my old lady,
I am proud to say, used to reply: "She
Is the nicest boarder I ever had. Be
cause when things are real good ahe
knows enough to appreciate them: and
If things go wrong once In a while she
has sense enough to know the diffi
culties, and to make allowances." Now,
what about that pie? The "awe" la
nattering, but. I think the pis would
be more ao!

In th am way? I ther any way to get
It yet this yearT Thanking you much for
past vsluabt Instruction. L. TT.
Here are two old recipes for dande
lion wine differing somewhat In flavpr
and method of making:
Dandelion win No. 1 For two gal
lona water allow alx pounds of sugar,
six oranges, four or 6 pints of fresh
nicked dandelion flowers, and one-half
yeast cake, or a. few spoonfuls of strong
home-made yeast. Put the auger In a
pan with the orange Juice. Boll the
flowers In the water for half an hour,
then atraln over the sugar; stir until
this 1 dissolved and cool to lukewarm.
Then add the yeast, softened In one-
quarter cup lukewarm water. Let
etand two days, then put Into a casK
and seal up when the working Is over.
It may be drunk In two or three
montK but Is better kept longer.
Dandelion wine No. 1 Allow equal
measures of water and dandelion petals.
Pour the water, boiling jot, over the
petals, stir, cover with a cloth and let
stand for three day, stirring occasion
ally. Then atraln and boll up the
liquor with the rind of a lemon and the
rind of an orange, cut thin, an Inch of
dry ginger and 3U pounds of sugar to
every gallon of liquor. Strain and .add
the Juice of the orangea and lemons.
Let ferment by standing In a warm
place or by the addition of yeast as
above Put In a cask th second day
and close tight when fermentation
ceases. Bottle In three months.
I do not know whether either of the
above Is what you want: but In theso
I think the amount of Taraxaclne (the
active principle of the dandelion! will
not be very large, and probably a
email amount of "dandelion tea" from
I he roots would have about the aame
effect as the more diluted petal Infu
sion. Add the root lnfslon. a few drops
at.' a time, until a faint, agreeably bitter
flavor is given to the brew. In regard
to Its possible medicinal value I am
entirely uninformed. ' We are often too
much Inclined "to put drugs" of which
we know little Into bodiea of which w
know lees," and some of the so-called
"simple herbal remedies" are often dan
gerous In untrained hands. I know of
a case when an old lady who bad
"raised and burled a large family." and
nursed a whole neighborhood, and
therefore "knew all about sickness," In
sisteoU.on giving a "fine kidney medi
cine" to a ttred teacher, who waa too
weak to resist. It was "Just herbs"
and would do her "a power of good."
It happened to be tha very thing she
ahould have avoided, and a serious ni
nes was th resulL Many of th
enough to permit their use: then they
are seen on collars and cuffs and
sometimes In a limited bit of skirt
banding. All the beads for black as
well as the prescribed dress textures
are of th lustreless sort, although oc
casionally a French gown for house
use will show a sheeny surface and
shining fringes on guipures.. Guipures,
by the. way, although a form of lace,
are much used for th smarter blacK
gown both for street and house, and
there Is no objection to their being of
a very els borate sort. A lovely trim
ming of this description shows a trail
of water lilies all black, to be sure
Interspersed with their leaves. It Is
not uncommon to see birds, trees,
roses, feathers and so on outlined in
the smart mourning guipures, and if
the trimming Is for a house frock It
may be picked out delicately with
white.
For silk, veiling, bengallne and sim
ilar light fabrics, nsrrow-shaped frills,
bound at the scalloped edges. are
threatening a popular vogue for one
plec frocks, the bound ruffles going
on the skirt snd the edges of deep
cellar and cuffs. The point should be
remembered by the home dressmaker,
for such deckings sre easy to make
and they can always be used when a
more elaborate trimming cannot oe at
forded.
Begallne may trim a cloth suit, otto
man silk trim serge and when a fine
trimming Is out of the question plain
taffeta can be used on anything. Apro
pos of taffeta, there are some novelty
weaves In It with diamonds, spots ana
splashes,' all of fhlch are feasible and
which look extremely pretty as trim
mings for plain veiling or cashmere.

home-made wine and cordials that
have had a great medicinal reputation

water and rest In bed which usually
accompanied their administration, and
upon the expectant mental attitude o

I have nc recipe corresponding ex
actly to your description, which again
does not correspond to my Idea of
apple Jack however, I may be mis
taken about this latter point. Perhaps
some correspondence can aet me right.
The proportions of a mixture such ss
you describe would. In any case, be
largely a matter of personal taste. The
exact amount of sugar would depend
upon the tartness ot the apples used;
the amount of "liquor upon the prln
clples and taste of the persons to whom
It Is to be offered. I Judge that you
want a kind of "apple toddy hot,
sweet and aplcy. This would be best
served from a china punch bowl, or If
cold, from a tall flagon or pitcher, pref
erably of silver or of stone ware.
think yon will get a better flavor by
leaving the peel and seeds In the ap
ples. Stick a clove In each apple If
liked. After baking and roughly mash
ing, cover with hot water; add a few
strips of lemon rind and sweeten to
taste. Let stand until cool then strain,
and dilate with water If necessary. Some
apples will be Improved by the addi
tion of a little lemon Juice. By mak
lng a very concentrated solution at
first the mixture need not be reheated,
as the addition of boiling water will
make It hot enough. Add the liquor
you prefer. In the proportion .suited
to your taste. last of all. Just before
serving. For children the liquor ahould
of course be omitted altogether. If
the mixture Is served In the punch
bowl have a few- tiny apples or crab
apples, roasted and floating on the
bowl as described by rue in a
Midsummer Night's 'Dream." The fol
lowing recipes may be suggestive:

Memories of Altar Cushions.
London Chronicle.
Not only Ruskin and Burne Jone
solaced with their childish minds In
church with the altar cushions and
pulpit cushions that were the reli
gious symbols of those bygone days.
(Why, by the way, was the ease of
the clergyman's elbows so prominent
a care, as though the service turned
mainly upon that, not only In the pul
pit and the desk, but on the altar it
self?) Dickens, too. In the person of
little David. Copperfleld. was Interest
ed in the cushions: "I look to the
pulpit and think what a good place it
would be to play In, with another boy
coming; up the stairs to attack It, and
having the velvet cushions with the
tassels thrown down on his head."
Ruskin, the critic, saw the rich velvet
lights, and Burne Jones, the designer,
observed the difference In the fatness
of the several cushions, and Dickens,
the playboy of the whole world, want
ed to play.

ing to tired, Inflamed eyes. It Is a
great aid to those who wear glasses,
and a fine remedy for granulated eye
lids and eye troubles'enerally.
P. B.: Your sallow, pimply skin, lack
of energy, poor appetite, sleeplessness
and other marks of 1)1 health are due
to impure blood. The best way to tone
up your system and get back your good
health. Is to take before each meal a
tablespoonful of this simple, home-made
tonic: In a half pint of alcohol dissolve
a half cup sugar and one ounce kardene,
then add hot water to make a quart.
This old-fashioned medicine is very
strengthening to a run-down system,
and will soon put you in the best of
condition. As a liver regulator, it is
very "fine and Is Indispensable for gen
