THTR^DAY EVENING, FEB. Its 1909.
THE CRANBERRY.
Least Understood and Mott Abu?*d of
Our Don*i*?tie Fruit*.
Th* cranberry il the- least under
stexxl ami tin* mott abaser] of any
of our domestic fruit--. Compara?
tively few know tlifir possibilities.
Quite as few know how to prepare
them tn palatable form. Thc ox
fm--ion ir* common, "You need a
iarrel ol ingar for ? barrel of cran?
berries." Thii ii not tm*'. Thev
aro not sugar compared
with most fruits.
If naen will make the tai they
will discover thal more lance with
len rogar proportionately eau be
maU-f from ii quart of .-ranl-erries
than [rom ? quart of any other kind
of berry and if properly made will
Vie tempting and toothsome. A
barrel of ingar will -weeten more
than three-* barrels of cranberries. A
(Tanberry shorttake will vie with a
strawberry shortcake. Eaten ruw,
cranberries are a laxative and liver
tonie-. and*-, like the olive, one can
cultivate a fondness for them.
Cranberries are keepers, like the
apple, and, like apples, require a
cool, dry place. It is economy to
buy good berries. Utter cook them
in tin or iron ware. Um porcelain,
earthenware or granite. Do not cov?
er in cold Mater and allow to eim
mer, steep and slew over slow fire.
This make- tough skins, pale, sicklv
pink ur 'lark, dull red color anil
gives acrid flavor, Use boiling water,
.cook rapidlv and not long.
For a good since, to one quart of
clean cranberries add one pint gran?
ulated sugar and erne pint of boiling
water. Place- immediately over brisk
fire, stirring enough to mix sugar
with water and coat berries. Cover
as soon as berries begin to swell
and "pop." Stand by nnd mash
against kettle until every berry ii
broken. Keep them boiling during
thi? operation. Bv the time bel
arc all mashed, or naring boiled for
fifteen minutes, remove from stove
and turn into china or carthe-nware
dish. When cold this should be a
beautiful rich red, jellied sauce.
Their Baking Day*.
Passing by a little shop tire other
dav, one of those quaint little shop*
wiieie rugs are made to order ont
of old raj,'s, wh.-rc aged furniture
is refurbished nml cured of creaks,
a man's attention was attracted by
a which read i
"Mondavi, Wednesdays and Fri?
day! China Fired.4'
, he turned aside to in
pleading intere>t in some
of the ? urioi in ihe window.
"That i- for the benefit of ama?
teur artist* and some others, too,"
the woman in charge told bim.
"People who paint on 'luna, wheth?
er for imnsement or to earn a liv?
ing, often lend their pited to di to
have the colors firmly baked in. And
as we have so much other work fte
do we havo had to restrict our bak?
ing days. As it is, we have all thc
china work we can handle."?Xew
York P
Th* Unhappy Pott.
The Editor?Didn't we give your
verees a good place m the paper?
The Poet?Yes, yes, but?
Tho Editor ? And we printed
every verse.
The Poet?I know you did, but
there is an atrocious blunder here in
the sixth stanza. It's something
awful. The lady's name is Maud,
you understand. Listen to. this,
''She was by earthly dross unflawed.
and men and angels called her
Mud," What do you think of that t
Can you blame me for protesting'
Thc Editor?Let me have a look
at that. Oh, I see! The rhyme is
faulty.
Then the poet falls down the of?
fice stairs and never comes back.?
Cleveland Plain Dealer.
Put lt In Flgur**.
Perhaps the moat amusing in?
stance of typographical blundering
occurred in a well known Scottish
newspaper. A paragraph read as
follows: "Some time ago a fiat in a
not unfashionable quarter of the
city was let unfurnished to 10 ants,
who offered and paid a month's rent
in advance." The explanation of
this slip is almost as amusing as the
misprint itself. It is a rigid rule of
6ome printing offices that, while
numbers below ten are spelt in full,
all numbers higher must, le in fig?
ures, to save space. It is therefore
really very difficult for a compositor
to sjiell -tenants/' though "nine?
pins" is child's play to him.
Somewhat Negative.
This writer once came across the
Kentish multiplication of the nega?
tive. He was asking the way of an
aged laborer. "You go 'long ft
the field and git over the stile to
the right?no, the left." was the
reply. 'Then you come to the 'ard
road, and you go along till you come
to the place where I used "to go to
school. Then von go 'long, and you
ain't got no call not for to ask no?
body not afore you git to where Mr.
Myan lays at thurham."?London
