2. Conk the pumpkin as for pies, press 
•through a sieve, nreserving all the juice, 
add sugar to taste, cook slowly until 
thick, then season with ground cinnamon. 
This recipe does not give the amount of 
sugar, but we think one-half cup sugar 
to one cup pumpkin would he sufficient, 
as it is concentrated by boiling. Care 
must be taken to avoid scorching, as the 
sweetened fruit will “catch” very easily.

To Thee, of causes still the cause— 
We'thank Thee that Thy hand bestows; 
We bless Thee that Thy love with¬

Sweet Apple Recipes 
I wonder how many cook with sweet 
apples? I cut sweet apples in small 
chunks and use instead of raisins or 
citron in cake, baked Indian pudding, etc. 
The three following recipes are favorites: 
Sweet Apple Cake. Two cups sugar, 
two eggs, one-third cup shortening, salt, 
one cnp sonr milk, nutmeg, two cups 
preserved sweet apple, one heaping tea¬ 
spoon of soda, and Hour to stir quite stiff. 
Bake in loaves. 
Sweet Apple Custard Fie.—One cup 
grated sweet apple, four tablespoons 
sugar, one egg. salt and nutmeg, one cup 
We bring no sorrows to Thy throne; 
We come to Thee with no complaint 
In Providence Thy will is done, 
And that is sacred to the saint. 
Here, on this blest Thanksgiving Night, 
We raise to Thee our grateful voice; 
For what Thou doest, Lord, is right; 
And, thus believing, we rejoice.

The Rural Patterns 
In ordering always give number of pattern 
and size desired, sending price with order 
We are already receiving requests for 
advice as to the curing of chilblains, and 
it is quite possible that some of these 
early cases are partly due to fuel econ¬ 
omies. Children, elderly people and 
those with poor circulation become chilled 
in coll rooms, and are thus susceptible. 
A weakened nervous system, or anything 
that causes low vitality, will help. Tight 
clothing, or anything that impedes the 
circulation, will add 'to the trouble. Rem¬ 
edies are many: almost everyone has 
some pot cure. Camphorated oil is one 
of the best, and it should be gently 
rubbed on as soon as itching and burning 
begins. Painting the spot with iodine is 
often helpful, but this should never be 
used if the skin is broken. Camphorated 
“Vaseline” is useful also. After treating 
the place, a woolen covering is desirable. 
If the skin is broken, some sort of 
horacic ointment should be used. It is 
really very inipor'ant that chilblains 
should be treated promptly, before the 
skin is broken and a raw place formed, 
for such sores are often very obstinate in 
healing. Chilblains on the hands are 
less common, but we have known women 
who suffered severely from this cause. 
Where it occurs, gloves or mittens should 
always be convenient, so that the hands 
are not exposed when going out ou brief 
errands. Old-fashioned women used to 
wear woolen mitts or wristlets in their 
poorly heated houses to prevent chil¬ 
blains. and there is no doubt that some¬ 
thing of this sort is helpful to a chilblain 
victim when sweeping or making beds in 
unheated rooms. We also find that a fur¬ 
nace in the cellar makes a great differ¬ 
ence to chilblained feet, because it ends 
the cold floors of many stove-heated 
rooms.

THE RURAL NEW-YORKER 
ALICE FOOTE MACDOUGALL 
Dept. A 73 Front Street. New York, N. Y. 
A good substitute for a hot-water bot¬ 
tle is a bag filled with salt or bran which 
has been heated in the oven. Heat the 
salt or bran in an open pan, and then 
till into the bag. Either will hold the 
heat for a long time, and one does not 
have tn worry about a leak from a‘crack 
or poor stopper. Neuritis, neuralgia or 
rheumatism seem to 'yield more to tills 
dry heat than to that from hot water. 
One great advantage of the bran is its 
lightness; when laid on a painful place 
its weight causes no discomfort, and it 
curves into any desired form. It is 
worth while to have some convenient hags 
of different sizes, made of outing flan¬ 
nel, and a convenient receptacle for the 
salt or bran, which may be used over 
and over again. The sudden need for 
its comfort comes with cold and stormy 
weather.

Calyx-eyed Needles 
You have many suggestions for labor- 
saving for busy women. Here is one I 
think will prove a boon to others as it 
lias to me. I accidentally came across 
one of these calyx-eyed needles many 
years ago. I went to a department store 
to see if they could he obtained. The 
girl in attendance said; “Oh, they are 
only for the blind!" But 1 got some. 
I’o dressmakers who have to thread a 
needle su often they are a convenience, 
even if the sight is good, and 1 do not 
see how one can get along without them 
if eyes are failing. I hold one end of 
the thread in the teeth, the other in The 
hand, and press the needle up by feel¬

tried, but which recommends itself. I 
understand t Init a group of cit\ wimcn 
have found it profitable, and see no ren 
son why country women might not. 
A sewing club has been found to stive 
time and money. The members engage 
n dressmaker to meet with rhem at their 
regular meetings, and they sew under her 
direction, if necessary; at all events, with 
her help and advice, especially in regard 
to cutting aud fitting. 0. A. T.
