CHRISTMAS CANDIES Candy-making 18 as much a part of the Christmas celebration for many of us as the trimming of the Christmas tree. Home-made sweets, especially fruit and nut prepara- tions, are always popular, and fur. nish a generous reward for the trouble in preparing them. Even though new ideas are always coms ing .to the front the fruit and nut 'confections will always hold their own, The following recipes offer both novelties and old standbys in pre- paring and combining fruit and nut confections. Glace Pineapple. «Pineapple, Water Pineapple-juice, Sugar, : Remove the skin and eyes from a pineapple not overripe. Cut the fruit in slices, discarding the core. Put the elices in enough boiling water to cover, and simmer till tend- er but firm. Make a sirup of the pineapple-juice, water, and sugar, allowing a cupful of liquid to two cupfuls of sugar. Pour over the pineapple. Cover and let stand over- night. Pour off the sirup and cook until it threads. Pour over the pine- apple slices. Reheat the sirup and fruit to the boiling-point. Remove from the fire when the sirup threads on the fruft. Put an oiled paper and dry in the sun or on the back of the stove. Fruit Dulce. 1 cupful figs, % .cupful nuts, 1-3 cupful crystalized ginger, 2 table- spoonfuls lemon-juice, powdered sugar, shredded coconut.

Dancy Dean -- familiarly D. D.-- flung out of his car ten steps in front of Miss Sarah Martha Wade, whom he had overtaken on the coun- try road in front of her home. With a wild dash he seized her hands, swung her around himself, pivoting on his feet, and sat her down up- right, but helpless with laughing for a full half minute. When she could speak, she said: 'You read my mind right--all morning I've been yearn- ing for a good noisy romp--as we used to have before school and col- lege finished us. What makes folks let 'em do it, D. D.?"" "Want of understanding--and the imitative faculty," D. D. answered promptly. '"But all that's going to be changed. with our children--they i stall do whatever they like--provid- ed they are wise enough to ask us first if we like it." ** 'Our children'! H-m-m!"

"Oh, what a joy it is to have a thankful child!" Sally paraphrased, waving the scarlet parasol that had so far served only as background to her wheat-yellow head. D. D. muttered grufly: "I'm put- ting obedience out at interest. Re- member that, young woman, even you don't dare defy me when I have sons to heln Ine. " "Your Te positively indecent," Sally. | laughed, "talking of your sons." "Any worse than talking of father or mother? I can't see it," D. D. retorted. "That reminds me-- mammy says I'm to fetch you back with me---and to stay.a week-----she's had a girl wished on her--sort of cousin, lone orphan--richer'n an Oklahoma Injun--you've got to help us with her," "The plot thickens," Sally cried, jumping up and down. "Now I know why I've set you to work -- grass would have taken those poor roses before I could get back home." The young folk were, of course, sadly spoiled--D. D. by seven mar- ried sisters whom he had succeeded when hope was lost, in addition to rich and doting parents. Sally, an only daughter, had a scant three brothers, but they had made up in indulgence the allowance of a full dozen. No heiress--child of a second wife----she had never thought of money save as something nice to spend. The boys, dividing equally tneir mother's dowry of millions, took great joy in 'giving Babe things" whether or no she needed them. D.D., three years older, had been her play- mate and comrade since she could toddle. Deanside and Wadeways marched | | medieval little twisting of--a gentleman's word { of honor." "What will you do?" the father asked still huskily. i "Wait and see!" said D. D. rushing ' away, to come back in three hours with Sally's hand in his, and a new | wedding ring shining upon it. "We beat Nat to the parson," was his sole explanation: "Will you and mammy keep Sally safe for me until I find a | job, and .a cottage?" "And I'll promise to be my bad- ! dest," Sally said with her wickedest smile: "so.you won't have a chance to worry over what's happening to-- our boy." She went to him after a fortnight-- | to help him take a ground start on his own declining loans, either of - money or influence, And stuck to him unmurmuring through five years wherein he climbed not to riches but reasonable comfort. TO WRECK KAISER TOWER. | | Structure In Jerusalem Must Make Room for Driveway. The brief announcement eomes | from Jerusalem that the Kaiser Tower is to be demolished. This tower was built to commemorate the visit of the former German emperor, William II.; to Palestine in 1898, and its erection at the Jaffa gate, one [ of the leading entrances to Jerusa- lem, made it a quarter of a century | ago the subject of much comment and | a lengthy international controversy. In October, 1898, William II. land- ed at Haifa, on the Palestine coast, and journeyed on to Jerusalem. Every | possible mark of honor and distinc tion was paid to him by Abdul Ha- | mid's orders. His entry into Jeru- | salem was described as a "dream of spléndor." The emperor, | wearing the burnished helmet and | white uniform of the Prussian Guard, and attended by a host of chivalric | figures arrayed in the insignia and | flowing mantles of the orders of Si. | John and the Teutonic Knjghts, rode | in state along the crowded streets to the new German Church of the Redeemer. 7 For a cavalcade of such spendor the Jaffa gate was too low and nar- | row. To admit it a breach was made | in the wall beside the gate--the first | deep breach in the walls of Jerusa- | | lem since the city lay at the mercy | of the besieging Romans and Crusa- { ders. This breach was repaired, but | the spot was marked by a tower with | the faces of a great German clock | showing on its four sides. At the time of his visit the German emperor could look down from the | Palestine hills upon a Jerusalem | dominated by buildings and towers of German institutions. The signs of German banks and financial agencies appeared prominently in the business | section of Jerusalém, and German | economic and political interests were | then strongly and apparently firmly | intrenched. But the close of the world war | brought a change to Jerusalem, | which is expressed in an improvement of the condition of the people and in the very modern demand for more breathing spots. A park and new walks were laid out and the Kaiser tower was in the way.--N. Y, Herald. | Secds Stand Tremendous Heat. None of nature's inventions has more wonderful powers of endurance than the seed by means of which plant life is carried on. You may subject certain seeds for | hours to a temperature of 100 de- | grees below freezing point, you may heat them uhtil they are hot enough | to burn your hand, yet they will not together along their greatest breadths | lose their vitality. . --thus the pail had been as much at | | the forests, destroying mile after mile | home in one house as the other. Thus else they had been 'fed on the roses and laid in the lilies of life" well nigh to surfeit. Both felt it--ae yet inarticulately. A little later the feel- sprang sternly to life and 'action. because of two things--earth- quake in finance and the lone rich cousin. The elder Dean, long a sflent partner in huge commercial enter- prises, when he caught breath after the earthquake, found he had left only Deanside, and what seemed to him a beggarly pittance of three thousand a year. Plus honor, he had made good where a man less scrupu- lous d have stood from under. His a ters, in spite of rich hus- bands, grumbled under breath over losing greater prospective riches, but his wife said gallantly: "Never mind, dear." And his son all but shouted: "Dad, you're the Huge fires sometimes rage through | of giant trees.

When tests were made recently to discover the heat at ground-level dur- 'ing a forest fire, it was found that it | was from 1,000 to 1,600 degrees | Fahrenheit. The fires move so quick- | ly that this intense heat lasts only for a minute or less at any spot. Various tree seeds were then tried to see what heat they could resist. | It was found that fir cones could withstand a temperature of 1,200 de- grees Fahrenheit for eight minutes without losing their vitality.
