How do You Say—
THANK YOU?
A
FRIEND set me think-
ing about this. when a neigh- bour said she was longing for a day at the sales, but couldn't go be-. Caitse of the 'baby, Knowing the readiness of my friend to help and her affection for children. I was surprised at her usual offer did not come. Afterwards she told me. She would have loved minding baby, bat couldn't stand the way in which she would be paid for IL
I've ofered before." she said, "so I know what sho'll do. As she takes her baby from my arms, she will thrust flowers or sonin present into them. though to say "That's that: you're paid, with thanks. Now I'm under no
obligation."
A clumsy giver can be offensive, we know; and no can n.discourteous re ceiver. When one has done a good turn with spontaneous kindness, it's hurtful to have 1 met with a "pay" · ment for services rendered" attitude. But the blunder imi't always from the "no obligation" angie. It may be that a simple thank-you seems poor and Inadequate expression of the in- tense gratitude one feels for a kindness shown, and so we rush in clumally with our thanks, catising embarrassment to the giver.
Be, in future. 1. for one, am going to try to set my house in order by giving thanks" quietly and utter- ing my compliment another day, 'in a manner which won't shrick out na a duty payment,

OR every four people allow 1 pint of orange juice and the Juice of one lemon. Také a qur, jug and add the strained fruit juice, and sweeten. Syrupa are best for sweetening, using fe gill of sugae. syrup, and gill apricot syrup. Have ready some chilled soda water and fill up the jug with equal parts of water and soda water. Add a lump of ice and decorate with thinly allced "wheels" of orange and, it liked, a sprig of fresh mint,
The cup should be well chilled. before serving.
H

AUTUMN SWEETS
OFT fruits offer varied fare for post-summer sweets and need very little preparation. Indeed, the less "fussing" they receive the better, as Nature presents them, when ripened, in a dietetically perfect form.
When used for Aarts, or just "plain stewed," it is a good plan to use a syrup, averaging about 4oz. of sugar to the pound of fruit, and from 1
is to pint of water. The sugas should be well dissolved and the syrup allowed to boil for about ten mimites, to reduce to a thicker con- sistency, before the fruit and flavour- ing are added.

FRUIT Fools offer a simple and attractive dish that is particularly acceptable in the nursery, as both skins and pips are disposed of in the purvclog.
The proportions for these fruit custards should be 4 pint of cream (or custard and cream mixture) to ench pound of purce.
In the case of raspberries, the berries can be hulled and sprinkled with sugar overnight to draw the Julee and then passed through a tine sleve the following day,
The use of full mensure in cream is so much titeer with the soft berries, but for the more fleshy fruits, plums, etc., half custard and half measure in cream is a very good rule. A cool and acceptable sweet can be made entirely from custard blending with the fruit.
MOST varieties
are sum- ciently accommodating to be made into fools, such as plums, raspberries, apples, rhubarb, black- beginning and end of every row until currants, loganberries, peaches 20 sts, remain. Cast off.
