The following are all old, well -test- ed family recipes, and you will find that they are excellent for cold days; but when such a pudding is to be eaten as dessert the rest of the menu should be light and include green vegetables. Apple Dumpling.—Pastry, as in the recipe for suet crust; apples, sugar enough to sweeten, five cloves, rind of a half lemon. Make the pastry and roll out. Cut off enough to make a lid for the dumpling; with the rest line the greased pudding mold, press- ing the pastry well back against the sides, cored and quartered, into the center; add the cloves, sugar and thin - the children to drink water.

A child never says in •', ords, "I feel absolutely exhausted,' but he says it in excitement, in irrit- ability of temper, in tired eyes, and es- pecially in wakefulness. All children should be good sleepers; if they suf- fer from insomnia, something is wrong, Sometimes the trouble comes from too much romping and excite- ment -,just before bedtime. That is a great temptation to both parents and children, but it should be resisted. The feet- of a wakeful child are often cold; that shows that its circulation is poor and that there is a tendency for the blood to go to the head. A warm bottle at the feet is serviceable in such a case. 0 Still more must the question of rest be left to the mother. A child who wakes very early in the morning has used up an enormous amount of nervous vitality before bedtime comes. round again. Nervous parents often have nervous children, and unless a strict regime can be established the inherit- ed nerve fatigue will show itself Qarly. Suet a Cold Weather Economy. Children, if they are to become strong men and -.women, must have proper. food, proper air and proper rest. It would be a very good thing if all mothers could be trained to re- cognize the danger signs that show that there is a deficiency of Any of the three. With respect toproper food, the digestive disturbances of young children are easily enough resogq.ized, Sometimes .the fault is with the kind ';of food, Seat more often it is with the quantity that is permitted. In these respects children 'differ just as adults clog It does not always follow that because one child thrives on unlimit- ed quantities of a certain food it will suit the next child as well; stomachs vary in tolerance at every age. Teach THROUGH THE DART.. SHADOWS Or The Sunlight of Love, CHAPTER XIII,-(Cont'd). Her husband kissed her again, and 'without' another word left the room, Giving some directions to the neigh- bor who was stili in the shop, he set out at once on his journey, He drove into Hampton and took the first train to London, `where he intended . to tell his father-in-law the whole story, and learn what details he could; for he did not wish ever to bring up the 'sub- ject again, so, far as Lucy was eon- cerned. Now it happened that Mr. Harker was late at the office that night, bending, sad and wrinkled, over his interminable papers; the whole busi- ness connected with which was so re- pugnant to him, Sigh after sigh es- caped his thin lips, as he read the pite with greased paper and steam for two ours.Rhubarb plum berries all make good dumplings used in this same way.

It was hard to be the tool of such a merciless fiend; to be the servant of such a mag ter of deceit, villain and found; but so greatly did the father love his child that he would scarce have hesitated in committing a murder had Jasper Ver- mont set that crime as a price of his forbearance and silence. He would have purchased his daughter's safety and happiness with -his heart's blood, if need be.' Unconscious of the release that was so fast approaching, he worked on, setting in order the various accounts which Vermont would require to be laid before him on the following day; and enteringin a book concise his- tories of the debts and difficulties which placed dozens of Jasper's acquaintances within Ins power. A knock at the door startled him, and roused him from his task. Hast- ily shutting the ledger before which' he was seated, and covering the deeds and documents with a large sheet. of paper, the old man rose and opened the door, IE was his son-in-law, John Ashford, and at the sight of his round, kindly h s and black - face, Harker staggered back, ai "To London, deer Mrs. Ashford. I did not know you were ill. T came back with Mrr'Ashford" "John!" exclaimed Luey,, the color rising in her face. "Nly father as well?" "Yes," said the girl, "I will call them," She did so, and a moment later John and Mr. Harker entered the room. "Here he is, dear, you shall tell him the news yourself, while I take the horse back," said the kindly John. He bent over and kissed her; and Luck followed him with wistful, adoring eyes as he went out accompanied by Jessica. The next' half-hour was an affect- ing one for father and daughter. Harker'could hardly believe the good news; for so long had they tried and succeeded in keeping the truth .back from Ashford, that it seemed incredi- ble indeed that he had forgiven freely and wholly. Mr. Harker looked a dif- ferent being when, after kissing his daughter affectionately he left her and went down to the little 'parlor John was sitting smoking his pipe; but he started up when the old man entered. "What is the matter?" he said, as he looked at his pale face. "Is she worse?" "No," said Harker. "She is bet- ter, thank. Heaven! John Ashford," he continued humbly, "I have come to get your forgiveness for the pain we have caused you. I knew my girl to be a good gill, although she had onco been so' foolish. I knew she would make you a true loving wife, in spite of her sin. It was I who overcame her scruples, and bade her marry you. I did it for the best. I did it that she might he happy; for I knew how she loved you, and she so feared to lose your love and respect. She tells mo you have forgiven her, but can you forgive me?" John grasped his hand. 0f course I do," he said heartily. "You did it for her, so I have nothing to forgive.

Tears of gratitude stood in Harker's eyes, as he returned the handclasp. "Heaven bless you, John," -he mur- mured. "Not many men would be so merciful. We will never speak of this again. You will not repent yoer gen- erosity." "What are you going to do?" ask- ed • Ashford, struck' by something un- usual in the old man's voice. "I am going back to London," said Harker smiling grimly, as in anticipa- tion of a pleasant,taek. "I have work to do, an account to settle now—for Lucy and myself..
