00KS CONCOCT ‘PERFECT JELLY
to Determine Amount of Pectin in Juice Are Outlined.
Jelly that won't jell is not one of modern housewife's trialf. Scihas taken care of that. There
four necessary ingredients’ for ly and these must be used in corgt proportions: fruit juice, fruit #cid, sugar and pectin. ‘Some fruits which are lacking in pectin when fully ripe will jelly naturally if used when slightly under-ripe. A good commercial pectin can be added to any fruit to make a perfect, firm jelly The fruits that ok the best ome when used alone are sour (including crabapples), cursour b berries, under-ripe gooseberries and decidedly ripe a These fruits Eas have the right proportions frdit acid and pectin.
Test Shows Lack of Pectin
e acidity of a fruit is determined readily by the taste, but the presence of pectin must be determined by test. Should a juice lack acid, this can quickly be corrected ~ by adding one tablespoon lemon * juice to each cup of juice. Lemon Juice added to strawberry or any red i ry will make the color more vivid, When you want to determine the - amount of pectin there are two 'simple rules you can depend on. One test is made by the use of epsom salts and the other by denatured “mlcohol. As denatured alcohol is poisonous, care must be taken that the tested juice is not tasted. : To test for pectin with ‘alcohol, : measure one tablespoon of fruit - Juice into a dish and add one tableSpoon alcohol. If a jelly-like mass forms immediately, a large amount of pectin is present and one cup of r to one cup of fruit juice should be used to make the jelly. If the juice forms into small flaky par‘ticles, there is a small amount of pectin and two-thirds cup of sugar to one cup of juice is the right pro“portion. If the mixture remains unchanged in consistency, there is no pectin present and commercial pectin or the juice of some fruit “known to be rich in pectin must be added. 2 Epsom Salt Test ‘To make the epsom salt test, mix one tablespoon fruit juice, one teaspoon sugar and one-half tablespoon Shsom salts. Stir until the salts are lved and then let stand 20 minutes. The jelly-like mass or the formation of flaky particles indicates the amount of sugar needed. - Hard fruits such as’ apples and - gquinces must be cut in quarters and cooked in enough water to make ‘tender in order to extract the juice. Boft fruits such as berries and currants are heated in just enough water to prevent burning until the Juice flows freely. Put into jelly bag
i let drip. This first extraction of.
‘produces the finest jelly, clear sparkling. * After the first extr return the pulp to preservipgekettle with water to half cover and heat slowly 10 the boiling point. Simmer gently for 20 minutes and pour into jelly ‘bag to drip. :
Best Method Outlined
It's much better to make a few . glasses of jelly at a time because the juice of some fruits refuses to Jell if cooked a long time and the flavor often loses its delicacy. Always heat your juice, bringing it to the boiling point and letting it boil hard for two to five minutes before adding the required amount of sugar. Old-time cooks who made superlative jellies heated the sugar before adding it to the juice. How“ever, if you add the sugar slowly so that the boiling juice scarcely stops, it isn’t necessary to preheat the sugar. Usually the syrup will jell after eight minutes of rapid boiling. Sometimes it takes as long as 15 minutes, depending on the amount of water you used to cook your fruit, ‘Pour into sterilized jelly glasses and cover at once with paraffin, Just enough to make a thin layer. ‘When cold cover with a thick ave gS parattin and store in a dark cool e.

CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE EREK,” said Lucille in the soft tones she affected on occasion, “won't you let me give up this pose for a minute? Every muscle in my body feels cramped! I don't know if. I can even move.” “I'm sorry!” Derek pushed aside his palette and brushes and held out a"hand to her. “I didn't realize how long you'd been sitting there. Why didn't you speak before?” “You looked so desperately serious I was afraid to speak.” Lucille looked up at him with big blue eyes. “Well, come on down now.” He grasped her hand. “1 don’t believe I can rise.” “There,” exclaimed Derek, lifting her down in his arms and setting her down on the couch. “stretch out for a bit and youll feel all right.” He turned again to his canvas. ”» 2 : «ygT'S NOT very nice of you fo turn 1 your back on me like that,” Lucille complained. “Why can’t you come and speak to me? I believe you are a woman hater! But there — even if one girl has treated you badly I don’t see why you should be so mean to every other girl you meet.” “What's that you say?” Dick moved quickly across the room. “Well, every one knows you were crazy about Gail Everett and I'm sure she led you on, but—" “Stop,” he said. “I don’t want to hear any more of that.” “So you still worship her?” Lucille laughed softly, tantalizingly. Then, slipping her hand in his, she said, “Derek, I want to help you. I've known Gail for years, and she’s not worth worrying about. She loves admiration, but when the time comes when she’s .ready to settle down every one knows she'll marry Dick Searles.” “You're sure about that — quite sure?” asked Derek. The night before he had seen Gail and Dick together. He writhed as he remembered how her sunny head had almost touched the other man’s,

there. He did 'not know, that a new telephone operator was on duty —one with small sense of responsibility. “Yes, Derek,” Lucille went on softly. “I hate to say it, but I know it’s true.” Yet even as Lu-
.cille spoke, Derek felt that she was
mistaken. On more than one occasion he had felt that Lucille was jealous of Gail. Still he had seen Gail and Dick together. Was that the real reason she had! refused to go to the theater with Carter and himself? “Well, are you ready to pose again?” Derek asked, pacing nervously about the studio. “Ready? Now? Oh, Derek, “do make me a cup of tea. I'm all in.” Rising, Lucille flung her arms about his neck. “Don’t you care for me just a teeny little bit?” . She held fast to the lapels of his coat, while Derek wondered if Gail's reason for refusing his invitation was her date with Dick. » » » H, come on, Lucille,” he said, trying to loosen the grip of her determined fingers. “I want to get on with this portrait. Of course, though, if you're tired we'll call it a day.” “And we'll have a tea party?” she exclaimed eagerly. “Not here! Well go over ta Rudy's.” Lucille pouted. “That won't be so much fun.” “Well, there’s nothing to eat here, so that's that,” Derek replied, cleaning his paint brushes. Giles Harding’s secretary stepped

from his chair as he heard the news.
“By George, she surely hasn’t cepted and gone West to close Get Miss Cranston’s let from the file. I think I wrote Gall Everett's address on it. Seems to me she was staying at some club.” “Very well.” Miss West hurried from the room. A moment later she was back. “Here it is,” she said, handing a memo on which the address was written. J “Oh, that’s quite near here,” he said. “I think I'll drop around there now and have a talk with the girl. If anything comes up, look after it. I won't be long.”

AIL was in her room. For the first time since Derek and she had become engaged he had failed to send her a letter. She could not think what had happened, and had finally called him up. There was no answer, Gail decided she would call again in the afternoon if she did not hear from him before 5. She could not dream that, though Derek was in his studio, he had resolutely determined not to answer, the telephone because he had a feeling that, since he had not written, Gail would surely call him. Loving Gail, he could not doubt her, and yet— She had told Natalie about. the lette® from Arizona and the fortune it promised, and they had both de-
cided that she might as well save
herself the worry and trouble of looking for another job. With $10,000 she could ‘have a place of her own, for she had decided to accept the offer, in spite of what Dick had said. Now Gail wanted to see Derek and tell him the news, but, as she sat by her window, she felt restless. A sudden premonition of trouble assailed her, and she tried to banish it.

HE telephone tinkled. Was it Derek, she wondered, as she lifted the receiver. “A gentleman to see you,” announced the operatqr. It thust be Derek. Gail glanced in the mirror, smoothing her sunny hair, and adding a delicate touch of lipstick. Derek doubtless was coming
to tell her why he hadn’t written.}
Maybe he’d had a wonderful streak of luck. Oh, everything would be all right. He'd want to take her to dinner and thep, maybe they would dance! . But when: she reached the foyer Derek was nowhere in sight. She walked to the desk. “You called me a moment ago and said some one wished to seé me.” ( “Yes, that gentleman over by the window.” = It was not Derek! Gail's spirits sank. Had something happened to him? Oh, no, surely not, she prayed. “You wish to see me — G@Gail Everett?” “Yes,” replied the gentleman, rising. “I'm happy to meet you again, Miss Everett, though I don’t suppose
