To PRESERVE A HUSBAND Be careful of your selection, do not choose too young, and take only such varieties as have been reared in a good moral atmosphere. When once decided upon and selected, let that part remain forever settled and give your entire thought to preparations for domestic use. Some insist on keeping them im pickle, while others keep them in hot water. Even poor varieties may be made sweet, tender and good by garnishing them with patience, well sweetened with smiles and flavored with kisses to taste. Then wrap well in a mantle of charity, keep warm with a steady fire of domestic devo- tion and serve with peaches and cream. When thus prepared they will keep for years.
