PRESERVING FRUIT.

j With the preserving season upon us, a
|few words on jam and jelly making may
be of interest to a good many people,
to those who have the care of
Invalids, With the increased attention
bestowed on sanitary matters, the ques
tion of diet has grown immensely in im
portance, and the regulation of the sick
room food is now looked on as scarcely
second to the system of medicine to be
followed. Now no question has been
more fiercely debated than the whole-
Bomeness of sugar. Without going the
length of some enthusiasts, who look on
pugar as only ono degree removed from
Ipoison, there are undoubtedly cases in
which its use is most deleterious, and to
such sufferers the recently introduced
sweetening agent, saccharin, is of pri
mary importance.
Saccharin has been adapted to culinary
rise in many ways, but up till quite late
ly there did not seem to be any method
of utilizing it for the production of those
jams and jellies which are such wel
come additions to the breakfast table of
daily life or the sickroom. Now as
nothing is more depressing to invalids
than the perpetual restrictions in small
things which remind them incessantly
of their invalid condition, so anything
that assimilates their manner of life, in
diet especially, to that of their surround
ings must be of value. Acting on this
idea some experiments have been made
that fully display the use of saccharin,
in the preservation of fruits at all
events, and from this to jam making is
but a step.
The process is a simple one, and can
with a little care be carried out in any
kitchen. The method of proceeding is
as follows: From four gallons of water
take a quart, boil it, adding to it gradu
ally, a little at a time, IJ4 ounces of sac
charin, and when this is thoroughly dis
solved return the quart of sweetened
water to the remainder of tho four gal
lons of water. The usual fruit preserv
ing bottles are then filled about an inch
or so deep with this sweetened liquid
aud the fruit of whatever kind dropped
in till the bottles are filled right up to
the shoulder.
These bottles are then filled np with
the rest of the sweetened water; the
corks are driven in and covered over in
the usual way, to insure their contents
being perfectly airtight; the bottles are
then set in a large pan, with water
within a bare half inch of the top of
the bottles; this water is then heated
to a temperature of 180 degs. Fahr,,
and kept at this heat for about %y i
hours, when the pan, with the bot
tles, is lifted off the fire, and the water,
fruit, etc., allowed to cool together for
an hour and a half. The bottles are
then taken out of the water, allowed to
stand till next day, when they are put
away, care being taken to pack them
lying on their sides.
Fruit thus preserved is ready for im
mediate use if necessary, or keeps as well
as fruit preserved in the usual manner;
indeed it is said to be superior to the
latter both in appearance and flavor,
the liquid in which it is preserved being
especially good,—London Queen,
The Girls Who Wear Suspenders.
The girl with suspenders is becoming
BO prevalent on the thoroughfares of
this city that when one meets a young
Woman who doesn't wear them he is apt
to wonder why she has left them at
home. He will even turn around and
look after the girl in amazement unable
to conjecture why she is not in line
With the great majority, who heretofore
have bordered dangerously on the do
main of man's wearing apparel by don
ning shirts and collars, but who never
before have come (mite so near toward
"wearing the trousers." It is useless to
resent the innovation, for it has been
truly said that when a woman will she
Will, and when she won't she won't. At
present she will wear suspenders and
fche won't listen to you when you tell her
that she is encroaching on your rights.
The onty hope for relief is that, as in
many other matters, her fancy will
Weary of suspenders, which have their
drawbacks, what with breaking and
buttons coming off, and that she will
discard them of her own sweet will.
The strangest part is that she seems
to be wearing them simply for the fun
of it, for they don't seem to hold up
anything and always look slack, as
though there was no weight upon them.
It is also remarkable that it is not the
Women who are calling for the emanci
pation of their sex who are wearing sus
penders; it is not those women who
would like to go out and hustle for a
living while you stay at home and take
care of the baby; it is not those persistent
lobbyists who haunt the legislature
while their bill providing for women
voting ia being politely and courteously
killed. On the contrary, it seems to be
the sweet faced maidens of our towns
who have adopted them; dainty, girlish
creatures who play the piano 'or the
typewriter and read Browning; who
cling wistfully and with submissive ten
derness to masculine strength; who are
the tender vines that twine around the
oak. They seem to be wearing suspend
ers in a spirit of defiance, for as they
walk airily down the avenue swinging
their arms their faces are lighted np
with a saucy smile, as though saying:
"Well, how do you like it? Do they
look becoming?"— Detroit Free Press.
A Daring Girl Rider.
There is a rider in this part of Texas
Who is greatly out of the ordinary, and
whose riding is the comment of even
ithis section, where good riding is the
yule and not the exception.
The rid.er is a girl, "Broncho Kate."
She is the daughter of a cattleman and
bas been all h*r life on the plains with
the cowboys, and could ride a horse
when she wasi three years old. She is
;tie idol of every cattleman on the range,
(and when Kate wants a horse there is
hot a man in the country but would
walk if she would only take his animal.
Kate Chapman is but sixteen years
old, but she is undoubtedly the most
fearless rider in the world. She never
hesitates an instant about getting on the
wildest and most vicious animal on the
range, and it makes no difference to her
LOS ANGELES HEBALD: SUNDAY MORNNG, SEPTEMBER 11, 1892.
' —
whether it has ever bad a saddle on or
not. Her latest escapade was to ride
and break in a mustang which had the
reputation of being a man killer. This
animal is especially vicious, and not
only throws its rider, but goes after him
when be is down and strikes and bites
him, trying to kill him.
Kate had been wanting to ride this
broncho for some time, but every one
on the range opposed it and did all in
his power to prevent it. The girl was
not to be baffled, however, and catching
the horse in a corral she saddled him.
She then blindfolded him, and in this
condition forced him out on the open
prairie and mounted him. The brute
stood perfectly still until she lifted the
blindfold, and then b?gan a terrible bat
tle, in which the girl finally came out
victor and rode tho horse at will wher
ever she pleased.—Mabeetee Cor. Phila
delphia Press.
The Seaside Bang.
"Seasido bangs," said the sign, "two
dollars."
"What are the bangs?" asked a re
porter, looking into a case of fluffy
looking Appendages in a store in West
Twenty-third street.
"When a lady goes in bathing," said
the clerk, "she naturally gets her hair
all out of shape. She hates to appear
among her friends looking like a fright,
so she claps on a bit of artificial tuft in
front, nicely curled—the seaside bang."
"And it is always in curl?"
"It is. The seaside bang will deceive
the wariest husband. It is a great sell
er. No girl who goes to the surf can af
ford to be without them. When she
comes out of the water, and while she is
lolling around in the sand, her maid
slips her the false front; she turns to the
wild waves, quickly adjusts it under
neath the brim of her wide straw and
the next moment, as her sweetheart
strolls down beside her, he—the poor
dunee —makes mental comments on the
beauty of her locks, not dreaming that
her real hair is wet and soppy as soft
soap and frightfully unpresentable. The
dripping hair is all right and poetical
enough in the water, but our girls have
learned that it is a horror on the beach."
"Then it is a great bean catcher, too,
eh?"
Before the clerk could answer in came
a great, lumbering woman, who came
very close to the counter, leaned far
over aud whispered something in the
clerk's ear. The clerk smiled sweetly,
wrapped something in a dark bit of pa
per and the fat lady left, a pleased ex
pression all over her face.
She was preparing to lay some poor
dude cold at the beach.—New York
Herald.
The Summer Beauty.
The summer beauty must not be con
founded with the summer girl. She is
more favored than the latter, inasmuch
as she receives notice from the press and
is called by her name right out in meet
in. The world that keeps its eyes and
ears open soon knows all about the sum
mer beauty. Her papa's wealth, her
gowns, her tastes and her accomplish
ments, and finally the number of her
adorers are each and all set forth in
cold type, that doubtless grows warm in
the recital. Until the summer solstice
the summer beauty has lived and moved
and had her being in the bosom of her
family. She was an unknown quantity
until placed amid the surroundings of a
fashionable resort, where her plumage
took on the iris of the dove and her at
tractions became glowing texts for the
newspaper correspondent's daily letter.
Without the summer beauty how col
orless would be the hotel dance, how
tame the bathing hour on the beach,
how dull and aimless the rattle of har
ness and the champing of steeds along
the afternoon drive! It goes without
saying that the summer beauty, who is
perhaps described "as having a piquant,
radiant face of the chatain type, and a
prettil}- molded figure, which she car
ries spiritedly in repose or action," al
ways gets there. She is in that delight
ful position of being always in it, and
the chances are that having made—or
had made for her—a reputation for
bellehood, she returns home at the end
of the season a conquering heroine,
safely and securely engaged to some
bold man. Such it is to be that jewel of
fate—a summer beauty.—New York
Commercial Advertiser.
A Defense of the Trailing Gown.
If ever a woman might pose as a mis
understood martyr, it is she who wears
the trained gown. Press and people
unite in denouncing this most graceful,
most artistic, most convenient and most
scrupulously neat of all modes. The
average gown cannot be lifted on the
street —at least by any woman who has
any reverence for grace; the trailing
gown is made to be lifted, and its wearer
is thus preserved intact from all the
various horrors of street dust, so ardently
described in the press.
The secret of all this atrocious misun
derstanding of the train is simply that
it is an emanation of the masculine in
tellect that cannot, alas! know by per
sonal experience anything of its comfort.
The trained gown concentrates all its
weight in one place, and it is so skill
fully designed and draped that at a
touch it can be lifted, while the ordinary
ekirt, befrilled and beflounced, needs a
dozen pair of hands to raise it.
It is quite time that the claim of the
trailing gown to the highest known
degree of hygienic value, temporary
comfort and beauty .be set forth. It
has been reviled long enough by those
who know nothing about it.—Lilian
Whiting in Boston Budget.
A Massachusetts Law Makes Trouble.
The fifty-eight hour law for women
and children is already causing the dis-
Dlacement of women. Wright & Potter,
tne state printers, announce that in con
sequence of it women can no longer be
employed by them. Many manufactur
ing establishments in the state will con
form to it, and women and children
employed in the mills cannot work more
than fifty-eight hours a week. The in
tent of this law is, so far as it affects
children, humane and commendable,
but while men are working sixty hours
a week it will complicate matters for
women, and some employers threaten to
reduce wages of women to correspond
with their hours of work.
Advocates of women's rights believe
it is false logic which discriminates
against women. At Northampton eev
euly-five girls employed in the Nonotuck
Silk mill, at Leeds village, have quit
work on account of a reduction of pay
under the fifty-eight hour law. and de-
Clare they will remain oul fill sixty
hours' pay is given them. If the girls
do not return to work the officers of the
mill say they will supply their places
with men. —Boston Woman's Journal.
A Clever Rlflo Woman.
Miss Leale, the Guernsey "lady shot"
who distinguished herself last year al
Bisley, is adding to her first laurels.
Thursday she was again among the rifle
men on Bisley common, trying her hand
at 200 yards, and in three shots putting
on a magpie and a brnco of inners.' Tho
"chit of a girl," as her admiring col
leagues of the National Riflo association
called her, evidently "means business"
when she enters tho ranks of marks
men. Miss Leale is a tall, slight girl of
twenty-one, fair haired aad of a healthy
complexion, neatly but very simply
dressed, and perfectly natural and easy
in manner. She believes in "a fair field
and no favor" and scorns to accept any
advantage in the way of a rifle below
the regulation weight, or any other priv
ilege, because she happens to be a worn-'
an.—Pall Mall Budget.
Fnris Law Students Try to Interfere.
Mile. Jeanne Chauviu, a lady law
student, was to have appeared before
the professors of the faculty of the law
school, in Paris, France, a few weeks
ago, to deliver a thesis which she had
prepared in favor of the "emancipation
of woman." On the day on which this
was to have taken place a number of
law students were present and created
such a disturbance that it was found
necessary to postpone the young lady's
examination till another time. Tester
day, without giving any public notice of
their intention, the young lady was
called up, but although such secrecy
had been observed many of tho students
were present. They, however, confined
themselves to loudly applauding any
objections which the professors made
to Mile. Chauvin's arguments.—Galig
nani's Messenger.
Successful American Women in Paris.

Adele Grant's Newport Raiment.
One of Miss Adele Grant's prettiest
Newport toilets thus far this summer is
an ivory serge skirt, with narrow gold
braid wrought into anchors and cable
cord about the bottoms. With it is
donned a cornflower blue serge coat,
with revers and pockets of ivory. A
narrow gold cord girdle holds the bodice
full at the waist, and the small, straight
brimmed, blue, straw sailor hat is
trimmed with ivory ribbons.—Newport
Letter.
Good for the Hands.
"How does it happen that yon alone
of your large family have soft, plump
hands, while all the others have such
thin, bony ones?" I asked a pretty wom
an. "I'm sure I can't tell why I am
so favored," she answered, "unless it is
because I take more care of mine. I
never wash my hands without afterward
rubbing them until they tingle with a
piece of soft white flannel."
Women with a tendency to what they
prefer to call embonpoint for some time
have ca. ried about in pretty bonbon or
plain pill boxes little pellets of saccharin
ready for use iv casual cups of tea or
coffee in houses where the saccharin
bowl has not been added to the sucrier.
The Working Girl's Vacation society,
of New York city, is now in its ninth
year. Nine hundred girls have been
sent away for vacations of about two
weeks each, and about 4,000 excursion
tickets were given to girls who could
only leave the city for a day at a time.
To rid the house of flies, moths,ants and
water bugs, not to include others more
unmentionable, it has been found satis

candles, a far easier method than the
old fashioned one of breaking up stick
sulphur on hot coals.
