Apple Bnttcr Liiko GrandmothersThe first tiling to do is to secure sonic

good sweet cider apple cider and boilit half away This should be done theday before you expect to begin withthe apples I use a porcelain lined ket-

tle¬

that holds five gallons Boil it halfaway and let it remain in the kettleover night on the back of the stoveXhe advantage of this is it is warm andwill begin cooking earlier As soon as

jossible the next morning I begin andprepare the apples as for sauce and putinto the eider nil it will hold Fill thepot full to the top and as itrcooks softkeep putting in more apples to keep thekettle full until it is quite thick andlet cook slowly and stir very often asIt will burn very readily if it is over toohot a fire It needs to be cooked a longtime I never finish mine in one daysimply move it back on the stove where

ifl5 it will not cook but keepT night When it is done it w

warm overill be cooked

away considerably and thick and darklike a jam or marmalade Do notsweeten until nearly done as it burnsmore quickly and by cooking away asit does it might be too sweet Usewhite sugar and sweeten to taste Iuse no spices as I consider it spoils theflavor of the cider and apples If theyare used they should be of the verybest and carefully added This recipekeeps perfectly without being put upair tight I put it in stone jars and tiea cloth over it merely to keep out dust

THE DOCTOR OF LONG AGO

When People Were Bled and Filledwith Medicine

The doctor a hundred years ago andless was a more important personagethan he is to day Indeed he was sec-

only to the minister and the judgeHis genial face his engaging mannersthe sincerity with which he inquiredafter the carpenters daughter and theinterest he took in the family of thepoorest laborer made him a favoritefor miles around Ho knew the namesand personal history of the occupantsolevery house he passed The farmerslads pulled off their hats to him and thegirls dropped courtesies as he passedSunshine or rain daylight and dark ¬

ness were alike to him He would rideten miles in the darkest night over theworst roads in a pelting storm to ad-

minister¬

a dose of calomel to an oldwoman or attend a child in a fit

The drugs were stowed away on theshelves of the village store amongheaps of shoes Rohan hats packagesof seeds and flitches of bacon

Tho physician was compelled to com ¬

pound his own drugs make his owntinctures and put up his own prescrip-tions

¬

His saddle bag was the onlydrug store within forty miles Eachspring the blood must be purified thekidneys excited and the damsel whofainted profusely bled Large doses ofsenna and manna and rhubarb andmolasses were taken daily It is safeto say that more medicine was takenevery year by the well than is now taken by the sick in the same time
