The pear is a neglected fruit and undeservedly, for It is refreshing and lends Itself to a variety of uses fot the table when cooked. I.ate pears often solve a problem for the housewife who has to de vise a variety of preparations for the table for winter use. Preserved In their own syrup they will be ready to serve for breakfast during the winter, cither warmed in the oven or cold., And they can be served as a dessert too, or used for salads in conjunction with other all year round fruit. Pear conserve is one of the most attractive forms of using the pear, which is now plentiful. Pare and core a half peck of pears. PJace them kettle in an which enameled ware preserving will preserve their delicate color and flavor, and let them stand for twelve hours. Enameled ware be ing impervious to the action of fruit acids, there will be no danger of the fruit becoming impaired. After that drain off the liquor and bring 1‘ *o a boil for about ten minutes. Add the pears and half a poun^ „f seeded raisins. Then add the juice of two lemons and one orange and cook slowly until it thickens. During the last quart er of an hour of cooking, add half a pound of broken walnut meats. Seal in air-tight, jars while hot. SWEET POTATOES MARSH HALLOW E D STYLE Sweet potatoes in any form 1 are always appetizing because of their beautiful color. The usual candied style with a few additional dainties are particularly tasty, and made this way they are a nice light ap pealing luncheon dish for kiddies and grown ups. Peel and parboil medium sized potatoes for about twenty minutes. Cut lengthwise in thick slices and place a layer of potatoes In a well buttered enameled ware baking dish. Enameled ware should be because its vitreous surface iS - used exaetly what Is needed, both in preparation and cleaning, because sticky substances do not adhere to it. Dot the potatoes with tiny pieces of butter and sprinkle on one tablespoonful of chopped nuts, some raisins, and one teaspoonful brown sugar. Add another layer of potatoes, butter, puts, raisins and sugar, and proceed in this way until all the potatoes are used. Then put a Hater of marsttnualiows .on top.

C. Moore, 38, of Forsyth, who was found several days ago in a wrecked automobile beside the railroad track at Smarrs, near here, was brought to a hospital here yesterday for treatment. At first it was thought that Moore was not seriously injured, but he did not improve and exam ination at the hospital shows, physicians say, that he is suffering from a broken back in is partial ly paralyzed? G. C. Moore formerly lived in Spalding county and was return ing from Griffin when the acci dent occurred. TRY NEWS WANT ADS. the potatoes are soft anti the marsh mallows a delicate brown. MODERN MINCE MEAT The old-fashioned mince meat used for tartlets and pies has really gone out of style. Although we continue to use the old name, the beef and pork are now eliminated and only sweetmeats make up the Ingredients. This is a simple mod ification of the regulation mince meat, and since it is usually served as dessert, it is more digestible. The following proportions will make two fair sized pies or ten of the individual variety. Chop one cupful of seeded raisins. Place in an enameled ware saucepan which will not affect or be affected by the various fruit acids in this mixture. Add om. cupful currants, two tablespoonfuls shredded citron, one tablespoonful grated orange r jel and one of lemon peel, two uablospoonfuls butter, one cupful brown sugar, one half teaspooqful each of grated nutmeg, cinnamon, and salt, and one half cupful of grape juice or sweet elder. Pour over all one cupful belling water. Bring to boiling point and add two table spoonfuls flour blended with twe tablespoonfuls of cold water. Cool for ton minutes longer, stirrin' frequently. Cool before using. THE HAPPY COMBINATION Pork and apples go so v.elf to gether that it Is rather unusual for pork to be served without apple cauce. But the art of preparing them together, their flavors inter mingled, by far surpasses the olf method of cooking them individual Ijr. The new way of combining them is a simple one and worth while knowing and trying. Select chops from the loin or ribs. Dip each in egg which has been beaten with one tablespoonful of mUk, .then dip in fine dry bread crumbs, and brown quiokly in a pan wfffc plenty of hot fat. Re move the chops and place in an enameled -ware baking dish, which is so china-dice and dainty in ap pearance that it can be brought to the table and used as a serving dish. Dust f%e chops with salt, pepper and a little thyme. Place on each chop half a red apple cut crosswise and cored, but not pared. Pour over all half a cupful of boil ing water and set In a hot oven to bake until thus apples and pork are tender, adding more water if necessary, Garnish with parsley when serving.
