Grape Conserve Three pints of grapes (not too ripe), picked from etems; two oranges, three-fourths pound of seeded raisins; one pint of water, eight teacups granulated sugar; cne pound English walnuts. Pulp grapes and scald pulp to remove the feeds. Then heat water, sugar and r-ulp together to dissolve sugar. This prevents settling and burning. Then add the grape skins and raisins (washed) which have been chopped but not too finely. Peel oranges and remove pulp from Its casing of tough skin; cut into small pieces. Remove yellow

Heart and Beauty Problems By Mrs. Elisabeth Thompson
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am nineteen and engaged to a fellow one year my senior. We have been engaged quite a while and I thought I loved
him, but now I know I do not, although he is a good fellow in every way. He bays he loves me dearly, but he does not show it in any way, although he is good to me. About two months ago I met a young : man and have since learned to care very much for him, and al though I am sure he cares nothing for me now, 1 1 should like to win his love. At times he will act as though he caretf for me, and at other times he will act indifferent. It worries me, for I really care very much for him, although I would not want him to know it. Should I break my engagement with the first man and go with the second one in the hopes of winning his love, or should I give him up and continue with the fellow I am engaged to but do not love? X. Y. Z. Break your engagement since you no longer love your fiance. In the future do not give your love so easily, but wait until time has tested its depth. Doubtless you will care as little for the second young man as you do the first if you are given the opportunity to become better acquainted. Do noth
ing to show the second young man that
you are interested in him. ferhaps
when he learns that your engagement
Is broken he will seek you.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: (1) Does a
minister have the right to stand In the pulpit and say, "Some of you baldheaded rascals"? Is that becoming when there are bald-headed people in the house?
(2 and 3) Questions not printed because they are long and do not concern the column. A SEEKER. (1) It is probably not good policy for a minister to speak in such a way, because he would naturally antagonize some of his congregation. I do think, however, that every minister should be given freedom of speech so that he will express what he feels and not suppress what he believes but is afraid to say. Language in the pulpit can be forceful, but at the same time it ought to be refined.
(2) Have a plain talk with your
minister and let him show you the passages to which he referred. He is right and can explain and prove to
your satisfaction, I am sure.
(3) The Pentecost is a festival of
the Jews.
Dear Mrs. Thompson! To whom can I report an employer who works his girls over fifty hours a week? Can
he be made to pay them overtime? OXE WHO WORKS. Report the employer to the state industrial commission at the state cap
ital. He cannot be forced to pay over
time, but he can be compelled to con-
duct his shop under state laws which would prevent over fifty hours a week.
This case should be reported.
moved about, in and out of doors, up
and down stairs and elevator, or stood
in groups chatting. Some looked poor
and workworn, others brisk and pros
perous: but there was something
about them that made Annie feel comradely toward all. The house itself
seemed silently to offer her a place in it. As she stood, looking and absorbing, she felt a sudden warm grasp upon her arm. "Well, what do you think of that! If it ain't it is Annie Carroll!" And there beside her was the "Firebrand" girl, her dark face glowing with friendliness, her eyes alight. "Nena Rabinovitch!" "Sure!" Baid Nena genially. "And always Nena Rabinovitch! I'm married to this house. These classes and concerts are my children. Oh, Annie. I'm so proud of them; I want to tell you how wonderful they are and how they thrive! But you your people are they well? it's centuries, Ann, since I saw you. How did you come
here? Where do you live? Come on upstairs to my office. I've got to talk
with you." Not waiting or expecting answers.
Nena pulled her guest upstairs to a cubbyhole of a place with a desk and chair and telephone, and there they
sat and poured out the story of the
years
"Bern," said Annie that night as they sat in that interval of homely
comfort and leisure that followed
supper on Saturday night when the
classes were closed, "Bern, light your.
smelliest pipe, put your elbows on
the table like me, look me in the eyes,
and tell me exactly what you see as our future." Being a fairly typical American husband, Bernard obeyed his wife, puffed a few times reflectively and said: "Well if I had my choice, I'd get hold of a million or so and spend it educating the community to put the prosperity and happiness of all the people, and not just a few, as the very first and foremost consideration. I'd see that no one, through wealth, had other people at his mercy. "I'd see that the community itself controlled everything tjiat gives the
people work, food, shelter, clothes, education, love and recreation. I'd have all the banks and railroads and slaughterhouses and every necessary industry owned by the people and for them. I'd see that every child had a chance. I'd see that every rotten tenement like this was wiped out and decent clean homes put in its place. I would " "Listen, my liege lord," interrupted Annie cruelly, "you'll never have a million dollars! You'll never reform the world at a fell swoop. I asked you what you see as our future. And now, Just to prove how womanly I am, I'll answer the question myself. We're going to work in, at, with and through the People's House." Bernard stared. "The Peop " he began. " le's House, my dear, exactly,"

people of every language, sort and
condition, but all with the same cause, your Cause (I pronounce it with a
capital letter) in their hearts and busy brains. "They study there English, arts, science, trades they play and laugh and talk and do stunts in the gym. It Is a people's world within a world of
masters. "I met Nena Rabinovitch there. She's a part of it. She has classes in all sorts of things, and organizes strikes on the side whenever she stumbles across 6ome factory where they work the workers down to the brute line. She told me how the house was a fulfilled dream to her people. How they conceived it, took the first timid steps toward getting it, how they scraped and saved and gave. How they denied themselves even the few hours leisure they have to get the plans under way, holding meetings, organizing committees, tearing from their shops and benches and offices to take part in the 'great adventure' of making a body for their souls. That's how Nena put it. That, she Baid, was what a home really should be. (To be continued.)

THE DISCOVERY The following afternoon when her chocolate packing was finished and her housework done for the day she walked over for a better look. It was a large, fine building, as handsome as the apartments Annie enjoyed looking at when 6he and Bernie in their first married year "lived
uptov. Outside were a number of 6igns announcing classes, lectures, the day's menu in the co-operative restaurant. There was a welcoming look about the place. Annie crossed the street and found herself looking into the "house" bookstore. A few more steps and she was in the entrance hall.
