Fruits, Jellies and Preserves EK For preserving, do not use ripe fruit, nor do not let it wholly ripen before you pick it. Fruit that is ripe is on the decline in juciness and flavor, and it must be a little green for canning purposes. A good clear syrup for preserving is made by using a pound of sugar to half a pint of water; before it begins to boil break into it the white of an egg slightly beaten; remove the scum as it rises until it is perfectly clear. For covering tumblers of jellies and preserves, melted para- fine is excellent. Pour it over the perfectly cold jelly, and it will form a thin crust that is clean, tasteless and durable. It can be taken off, and used again. Mutton tallow is sometimes used for the same purpose. Synth, All syrup should be well boiled before applied to the fruit, as it prevents it fermenting. Cider may be kept fresh and sweet by simply heating it until it throws off steam, then putting into hot jars, and sealing im- mediately. Apple sauce ready for table use or pies may be preserved by putting in hot jars and sealing at once. Remember cold fruit requires cold jars, hot fruit requires hot jars. 4¢ When fatigued no remedy can be so thoroughly relied upon as VIN MARIANT.’’— Campanint, 140 She has set her L heart on it as she must on any of these alls it Shoes bought at t 124 St. Lawrence cor.
