Don't beat sugar candies as soon | as you remove them from the fire; let them cool until only milk warm and they will be smoother, creamfer and finer grained. Don't try to cook your eandies too fast; an even, steady heat will pro- duce the best results i Don't pour your candy out too sogh; it will be too soft if it is not | thick and creamy before pouring. Don't throw your candy away be- cause It is too hard to eat; it is not rufned, but can be crumb ed up and cup of milk and boiled to the degree | called for in the recipe.

In many homes wherg turkey or chicken was served at the Christ- mas dinner, beefsteak is served for the New Year's dinner. For, with most of us, beefsteak Js a luxury.

If there be some in the fandly who llke it well done and others who prefer it rare, cutoff a small portion and serve it both ways, so as to suit all. Fry as many on- icns, sliced and peeled, as you think your family will eat, and surround the steak with these, on the seaving platter. a festive occasion such as a New Year's thnner, it is nice to serve the steak on one of the "Shef- Celery Coffee platters, wh'ch ing cup of seedless large raisins, a plece of candr'ed citron about the | Size one-half an orange peel (put this | through the food chopper also) two | tablespoons of ground cinnamo y one | teaspoon of ground nutmeg (o else | [one nutmeg grated by hand) wiree | {beaten eggs, one teaspoon ofy suit, | {one-half teaspoon of soda, one eup | of sweet milk, one and one-half cups | jof bread flour, one-half cup of gran- | {ulated sugar, and one clarge apple {pared and finaly chopped.
