THE BOSTON GLOBE SATURDAY. AUGUST 10, 1910 THE BAROMETER THE MASCOT HOUSEHOLD DEPARTMENT By PIERRE COSTELLO Can You Smile? i heat and all (Copyright. 114. Associated Newspapers, Limited.) When you are grown up, and you pack your bag and baggage and start out to paddle your own canoe through life, dont forget to take a little LOVE with you. No other mascot will bring you so much luck or so much happiness.

Let LOVE steer your frail craft down the stream time, oh woman! Then you will not run ashore or be wrecked on rugged rocks, but will sail smoothly and safely on, and on, and on. But when you tuck that yellow haired, pink palmed baby among your treasures, take a look among his curls to see that he has no horns, and be sure that his toes are round and rosy and that no goats hoofs are growing there.

CANNED AND PRESERVED PEACHES Not many housewives know how canning originated.

During the early excavations of Pompeii preserved figs were found. Upon opening they were found perfectly fresh and investigation showed that the fruit had been cooked, put into Jars and sealed. Canning is cooking fruit, sweetening slightly and sealing in sterilized Jars. Preserving is cooking fruits with three-fourths or its whole weight in sugar. Peaches Canned Remove skins, halve and drop In cold water.

Put a cup of water in kettle, put in a layer ot peaches, sprinkle with sugar, allowing a cun of sugar to 4 quarts of peaches. Add further layers until the amount is used. Cook slowly 15 minutes, can and seal while boiling hot. Peaches Preserved For preserved peaches allow of a pound of sugar and a cup of water to every pound of fruit. Peel the peaches, saving the skins if the fruit is fine, to use In marmalade or peach sirup.

Cut the peaches in halves. Skim the sirup, drop In the fruit a layer at a time and boil until the peaches are transparent and tender. Take out carefully, pack Into Jars, boil the sirup until thick and clear, then strain over the fruit and seal at once. Lawsie. WHEN AND HOW TO MAKE JELLIES Jellies should be made la a porcelain-lined kettle.

Cut up the fruit and nearly cover with water. Cover the kettle and boll slowly until the fruit Is broken into pieces. Put the fruit Juice and all Into a cheese cloth bag and let drip over light. Do not be too economical about getting out every bit of Juice, for the more you squeeze it the cloudier your Jelly will be when finished. As a general rule allow equal measure of juice and sugar.

Use the best granulated sugar. Put the juice onto the fire and after it begins to boil let it continue so for 20 minutes. Do not cover the Juice and do not let it boil too hard. Skim frequently. At the same time you put the Juice on, place the sugar in a pan in the oven to heat.

Stir up from the bottom, but if it browns a little on top it will not matter. When the time of boiling is up throw the BUgar into the Juice, stirring constantly. It will hlBS as it falls in and melt at once. Boil for 10 minutes longer. Have ready a heated pitcher with a piece of cheese cloth wet with hot water on top.

Put the Jelly through this strainer. Have the Jelly glasses standing In a pan of hot water, take out and drain, then turn Jelly In from the pitcher. I like this way of using the pitcher, as it is so convenient. Fill the glasses full and set away to cool. I let my Jelly stand in the sun, uncovered, for a whole day.

Never attempt to make Jelly in damp or cloudy weather. If firmness and clearness are desired. To test Jelly drop a little in a saucer and set in a cool place. If It does not spread, but remains rounded and jells, it is finished. Before covering the glasses set on top of the Jelly a round of white paper dipped in alcohol or brandy.

I prefer the paper to the paraffin. If these rules are followed carefully no one need have poor or cloudy Jelly. Made after these directions my Jellies have always been a success. 61s. BLACKBERRY JAM Pick over the berries and wash well.

Drain and put on the fire in a granite kettle. Cook very slowly, stirring often till fruit is well broken. Then add three-fourths as much sugar as fruit and continue cooking for three-quarters of an hour to one hour. The Jam should be thick as marmalade wben finished. C.

Well worth LaucMs By JESSIE ROBERTS A little booklet intended as a guide for the employes, especially those who come into direct contact with the public using the road, has recently been written by the president of a great railroad. Emphasis is laid on the great fact that you cannot do good business unless you do It agreeably. "A railroad sells transportation, but It sells more than that, it sells service. Railroad service begins at the ticket office and ends at the station where the patron alights. Between these two points should stretch the railroad smile.

It helps business." The writer goes on to elaborate his smile theme, and concludes by saying that good service depends not only upon what you do, but upon the way you do it. That is true whether you are a clerk in a drug store or a brakeman on a railroad. Smiles are remembered Just as well as frowns. The one helps to make the service good; the other helps to make It bad. There is a heap of sense in that booklet and all of us can take It as applying to ourselves.

Be very sure that, even if he doesnt actually ask for it, an employer does not want a clerk In his employ who cant smile. If you are the scowling sort dont complain when people who are apparently less efficient tnan yourself get promotion and you don't. A smile is a part, and a large part, of efficiency. Courtesy, affability, and a pleasant way of answering questions are quite as Important in most businesses as promptness, exactness and a trained mind. When in doubt, smile.

It helps a lot. OUR BUSINESS PIONEERS Men Who Built Up Manufacturing New England JOHN WILLIAM SANBORN, WHO BECAME ONE OF THE CHIEF RAILROAD MEN OF NEW ENGLAND. Born at Wakefleld, Jan 16, 1822. John William San- born was one of the eminent railroad superintendents of New Eng-land. He was brought up on his grandfathers farm, attended the public schools and went to an academy and graduated.

He was well educated and was fitted to teach In the Winter schools, and did this with success for many years. Young Sanborn had enjoyed his experience in farming and thought this was the life he should select, so he bought a small farm and settled himself as a busy tiller of the soil. Then he saw the advantages of buying and selling cattle and did a good business in taking them to market. As he came and went among the people he began to realize the importance of lumber and he began buying and selling this, and in 1870 he had built up an extended Interest. Mr Sanborn had made a study of wills and the relation of business connected with them, and for many years he was associated with this detail of legal affairs.

Early in his life he was interested in matters of travel and the Improvement of transportation. When railroads were opening up all through New England he first took an active interest in the Portsmouth, Great Falls Conway Railroad and was well posted in all details of its upbuilding. When the Eastern Railroad had Its Conway Division he was superintendent from 1874 to 1884. His success here brought him the apointment of superintendent of the Northern Division of the Boston Maine Railroad, and later he was made general manager of the Boston Maine. At the time a town was planned at the Junction of the Northern Division and the Wolfboro Branch of the Boston Maine; this was named for him San-bornville.

He was proud of the place, used all his Influence to build it up, and it became one of the most notable places in Carroll County. During the Civil War John Sanborn pave large sums of money to carry on the war and was one of the active forces In enlisting soldiers to go to the front. He was one of the Selectmen of Wakefleld, was a member of the State Legislature, a State Senator and president of this body. He was a trustee of the New Hampshire Insane Asylum, was trustee of the New Hampshire Agricultural College and was a director of the Manchester Lawrence Railroad. Mr Sanborn was widely recognized as a banker.

He was president of the Wolfboro Loan and Banking Company; was a director of the Portsmouth Fire Association and a director and vice president of the Granite State Fire Insurance Company. As his Industry in farming advanced he saw the value of raising and selling cattle. As a man of progressive thought he could not fail to see the advantages of railroads in New England, and this section of the country owed much to his wise foresight. HELD IN HINGHAM COURT ON AUTO THEFT CHARGE HINGHAM, Aug 19 In the District Court yesterday. Judge Edward B.

Pratt NEW MODELS The model at the left shows a skirt of pink linen with stripes of black and white, and a little vest of plain pink linen, all bordered with a narrow edge of black. It buttons in front and Is finished with a little basque frllL The, Diana, Lady Masterfleld said hotly. You must not give him another thought. He is married already." Aunt Mary! The cry was poignant with horror; but the next moment the girl went on collectedly; "I cannot beliee that. I am sure that he has never deceived us like that." Well.

I am quite sure he haa. Lid he say so. Aunt May?" No. he wouldn't admit it. But he didn't deny It.

He dared not deny it. That's mv opinion. Of course, Diana, my dear child, what other explanation could there be. unless the boy were mad! He has behaved most disgracefully, and I have come to tel! you that you must never have anything more to do with him. You cant demean yourself; you must have some pride.

He is a shameful Imposter. Ive no doubt his wife Is some horrid common creature. Im sure Ive never really approved of his mother, although there's never been anything definitely known against her. But she Is a very frivolous woman, and much too fond of men. I expect Marcus takes after her and has got mixed up with a lot of women in his early days.

I think you have had a very lucky escape. Liana looked at her with miserable eves. But you dont know this for a fact. Aunt May. It Is only what vou think.

tell yon the voting wretch never denied It. I never heard of such rubbish coming to mv house and talking to me about a hitch in the license! Kvervbodv knows there cant be a hitch; a special license is perfectly easv to get. The hitch Is In his own bad past and thats the truth of it Liana was silent. She had nothing to say. This explanation, hateful though It was, seemed the onlv possible one.

And vet she could not believe it Only a few davs ago Marcus had held her in his arms; he had kissed her; he had whispered to her the wonders of their life together. She had looked into his eves and seen truth in them; she had listened to his voice and heard love in it. He could not have been lvlng; he could not be a common deceiver, so base, so sordid. Even this last time, when he had come to tell her that the ceremonv could not take place, he had onlv said It would be postponed; he had discussed other dates. Could he have done such a dastardly thing if he had Indeed already a wife? Tt was Inconveivable to her.

Lady Masterfleld broke In on her miserable thoughts, and in her own practical way answered that last question. (if course, it's as plain as a pikestaff to me. He wanted your money. He thought he'd found some wav of silencing the other woman probably he deserted her and left her penniless. But she found out what he was up to and came along to spoil his game.

no, Aunt May' cried Diana brokenly. "I cannot I will not believe that. Marcus Is not like that. He has suffered, he is miserable. And a good thing, too! If you ask me, I think hes got off much too lightly.

He ought to be exposed to the world that's what he deserves. Onlv we can do it. for our own sake! Now, my dearest child, let me persuade you to come awav with us tomorrow. The good ladv was Interrupted by the entrance of Natalie with a letter. Diana took it; read it, and in complete silence handed It to her aunt.

My dear Diana, it ran, I can never ask you to forgive me. I have behaved like a miserable cur. I cannot marry you. I am going abroad. I shall be gone ov the time you get this.

Dont give me another thought. I am not worth it. Marcus. (CONTINUED MONDAY.) THERESAS TACTICS By HARMONY WELLER. Theresa had never, during her twenty-six years, done anything of Which, her parents might disapprove.

But now, muttered Theresa while she watched a great automobile whirling out of sight along the dusty road, I am going to turn sinner. I simply must know that good looking man who has Just passed by in his motor. It is positively wicked that masculine person should be so much alone not to mention feminine ones. I believe, she ruminated, with a shy, sweet smile, that I could really love him, if I only knew him. Then, out of her strong desire to become acquainted with the man who twice daily whizzed past the farm house on his way to business in the city, Theresa formed a plan.

During the afternoon when everyone about the farm was either sleeping or busily engaged, Theresa made her way to the thicket of fir trees. Once within the shelter she drew from her ample pocket three empty bottles which she had secured from the kitchen. A moment later she had broken them Into jagged pieces and put them into a cigar box. Making her way stealthily toward the barn she next added a score of thin rusty nails to her box and some sharp steel filings. She put her treasure within the thicket of vines that clustered over the porch, then swung herself into the big hammock to await the twilight hour.

He generally passes about 7:30, she decided before sliping off into a short nap. It was the toot of the motor horn far in the distance that awakened Theresa. She jumped up hurredly, picked up her box of evil looking glass, nails and filings and stole swiftly down to the roadside. With trembling fingers she strewed the contents of her box across the width of the road and tossed the box into the hedge. What if anything should happen and he should be hurt? she whispered to the roses.

She had prepared herself in a way for the report of a punctured tire, but" was not listening for the terrible explosion of all four of them. She fell back against the wardrobe in her room and could not summon courage to look out and see the result of her endeavor. She knew that the machine had gone several yards beyond the gate of the farm, but she knew also that there was no other farmhouse within two miles, and that there was no chance of the man seeking help elsewhere than in her father's home. And through the soft white twilight Theresa heard her father's voice in conversation with the man of the motor. We have food and beds to spare, her father was saying.

Come in and spend the night with us. We are always glad to welcome a stranger at our table Theresa felt very much like the sinner as she found herself looking into John Ridgeways eyes. It is strange, he was saying, that I have gone over this road twice a day for two years and this is the first time He stopped short, whether from the effect of Theresat blush or the curve of her lips ho knew not. I have not lived here so long, she said, and the meaning beneath was of course lost to John Ridgeway. It is fortunate that the accident to your tires happened when you were near a house," she added.

Very, very fortunate, Ridgewav said and the true meaning was not lost upon Theresa. knew I would like him. she told herself with an inward chuckle. It was not until after dinner when her father and Ridgeway were having a smoke and her mother was reading that Theresa found time to slip off unobserved. Out into the darkness she sped with the great kitchen broom trailing behind her.

The night was black, but she had no difficulty In finding the rough scattering of glass on the road. With a firm ing of the broom Theresa swept that trail of her guilt out of the sight of men. Ridgeway glanced up as Theresa entered the room. I would have broken a million bottles, she told herself with happiness. "Just to see that expression in his eyes.

THE OLD GARDENERSAYS the splendid Oriental popples which make the garden aflame in May may be grown without trouble from seed sown In vthe open ground right now. It is best to shade the seedlings with a cheesecloth frame and plenty of water must be given, but they will not need to be transplanted. although they can be given a new location in October if that Is deemed desirable. A new kind. Perrys white, is well worth adding to one's list.

Lady Masterfleld saw that Marcus si as deeply distressed. She was naturally a very kindly woman, but now she was too exasperated to care much whether she hurt his feelings or not.

His behavior had been sufficiently itrange to arouse the strongest suspicions even In a transparently simple mind. And Lady Masterfleld prided herself on her practical knowledge of the world. She began actually to doubt his sanity, she certainly could no longer 'lel-rvw that he was a suitable person to ewfc charge of Liana Careys life and cf her great possessions. You must be able to explain. Mar- cur," she went on, as the young man remained silent, looking at her with a miserable and distracted gaze.

Yesterday morning I got a note from Liana in which she said 'we are going to be married unite quietly tomorrow morning' that was yesterday she wrote the letter he nicht before. 'We will come in and tav poodby some time In the day, she went on. Now, I was In the house all yesterday and nobodv came, and last night I rang up the flat and was told that Liana had gone out of town for the day, but was expected back this morning. I rang up again this morning and was told that I liana was not up. She was not at all well and they did not want to disturb her to give her any message.

I made old Natalie come to the telephone and asked her point-blank if Liana had been married yesterday. She said no, Ma-dtmolselle had been suddenly called out o' town, and she had caught a cold on the way back. Then I went round at once, and ln-siFted on seeing her, tut could get nothing out of her. Now, 1 ask you, Marcus, what sort of an excuse, is tha f' What can you expect an ordinary, aver-aee Individual to believe? The young man shifted his miserable gaze from Ladv Masterflelds kind but practical face to the walDpaper behind her. Im afraid I can't explain, he said.

I know it seems queer. But Diana understands. Are you sure Diana understands? wan the sharp question. 1 crsonally, my dear Marcus, 1 should very much dcubt it. I take it that this postponement came from your side not hers.

Just as it did on the first occasion. You seem quite at a loss when asked to explain the nature of the hitch, as you cal' it. 1 am afraid I am. "Marcus, is there some real reason whv you cannot marry Diana? Are you by any chance married already? I have heard of such cases some boyish irdlscretion and In consequence a lifelong remorse. Lady Mastertields face wan a study In horrified apprehension.

Marcus gave a little laugh. He was utterly sick at heart, but it sounded careless and even bitter in the womans ears. From that moment onward Lady Masterfleld believed that she had guessed his secret. She looked upon him as a shameful philanderer; she never lost an opportunity of warning her niece against him. I notice you do not deny It, she said in a voice of Indignant seventy.

After all, it is so simple! What other reason could a sane man possibly have for refusing to keep his promise to a girl like Diana? I wonder I never thought of it before. Deny it if you can. Marcus was silent for a moment; then he said, quietly: 1 am very sorry. Lady Masterfleld. I can say nothing more than I have said.

For how long is your marriage postponed? 'Indefinitely. It is monstrous. I sincerely hope Liana wRi not fe such a tool as to have anything more to do with you. It is too humiliating for words. You treat her like dirt under your feet.

Don't ever come near me again. Ive done with you. I don't understand such behavior. I shall try to persuade Diana to come away with us tomorrow. The sooner she can be got out of your clutches the better for her.

Marcus again made no answer; and as Lady Masterfleld also relapsed Into a fiigid silence he took it us a dismissal, and went out of the room with a murmured good by and left the house instead of staying to luncheon, as he had been biddden to do. Diana had cried until she could cry no more. She found that she had undertaken an impossible task. Perfect trust is a rare plant; it cannot live on nothing. Faith in things unseen is fed by the spirit, and faith in human being must be fed by the outglven strength of that being's character.

Now, Liana's faith in Marcus Street had nothing to feed on. It was not as If he had given out that one deeply mysterious but solemn statement that a great gulf was fixed between them, and had made all his actions fit in with it. That would have been different. The girl would have remained enshrined in that quiet and trustful resignation that was next door to happiness. She would have asked nothing more; she would have accepted the fact.

But, instead of that, Marcus had relented. He had said by his actions that the gulf no longer existed, or else he had ano-gated to himself the power and the right to bridge it. He had changed the whole course of their lives. He had lifted her out of that queer walled-in garden into the radiant atmosphere of pure delight. He had said that she must be his wife.

They had made wonderful plans together. And then again, quite suddenly, he had come to her and made some foolish excuse about a hitch in the license. He had not been himself; he had been a nervous, vacillating man, with the appearance of wanting to edge out of an unwelcome bargain. She had been quite calm during the Interview; she had pretended to understand. She had played her part in tiiis sorry farce and pretended that it was only a short postponement and that another day would be fixed as soon as the irregulantv was rectified.

But, looking into Marcus' eyes, she doubted him for the first time. There was something wrong with him. He was not tragic; he was meaningless and futile. The day she was to have been married she spent In tearing about the country In her car. She came back late, exhausted and utterly sick at heart.

This morning she had been forced to see her aunt for a few minutes, and she had said as little as possible. But she could not disguise her forlorn state of mind. She saw that Lady Master-held had looked upon her as a girl abandoned by her lover for the second time. That did not hurt her as much as the fact that she had lost her faith in the man she loved. He did not want her.

That was what she must believe. The other day he had been sorry for her. fcJhe was so lonely; she showed that she needed him so much. He had given way to a kind Impulse. But he did not really care.

She must take up the burden of her life and bear it alone. She had all the means of doing good at her command. She must try to make her happiness out of the lives of others. But it was a dreary prospect, because for many days she had been living in a false paradise. About 2 30 oclock Lady Masterfleld called again.

Diana went Into the drawing room to see her. She had repaired the ravages of grief and looked quite calm, and managed to greet her visitor with a smile. I came te tell you that I hare unpacked tills wxewlied young man. ft GLOBES DAILY PUZZLE MILKING TIME. Another boy concealed.

Everybody knows that. He Is the biggest of all the people In the Green Forest. Only In the Great Woods Is there any one bigger Flathorns the Moose. But people may be very big and at the same time very small. Did you know this? They may.

In fact, some of the biggest people are the smallest. They are big In body, but small in nature, small In heart and feelings, doers of mean things. And by the same rule some small people really are very big people. Now, as I have said, Buster Bear Is very big, but no one knew how big he was until Whitefoot the Wood Mouse found It out. You know how tiny Whitefoot is.

Ho isnt so very much bigger than one of Blisters toes. Beside him Buster is a tremendous giant. Yet once, as you and I know. White-foot actually frightened Buster and made him run. That was because Buster had already been badly frightened by Farmer Browns Boy and his nerves were very jumpy.

But when Whitefoot told how he had made Buster run no one believed him. They believed that Whitefoot thought he had frightened Buster, and this seemed to them the greatest joke ever was. And so they "WOOF, WOOF! WHAT IS ALL THIS? DEMANDED BUSTER BEAR IN HIS RUMBLY-GRUMBLY VOICE. all teased Whitefoot by laughing at him and pretending that they were terribly afraid of him until Whitefoot was so miserable that he lost his appetite and couldnt sleep. You know there is nothing hurts quite so much as being made fun of and laughed at.

Of course in time Buster heard about it and he laughed, too. He knew that Whltefootr story was true, but he didn't let on. You see he knew that If FIRE DEPARTMENT OF NORWOOD REORGANIZED NORWOOD, Aug 19 The Norwood Fire Department was practically reorganized at a meeting held last evening at the Central Fore Station by the Board of Engineers, including Chief Ergineer J. Fred Boydeu, Engineer Frank W. Talbot and Town Manager C.

A. Bingham, who is likewise a member of the Board of Engineers. The captains anj secretaries of the various companies met with the board, and all greed that the new rules and regulations of the board were all right.

BURGESS.

he did the laugh would be an him, and he didn't want to be laughed at any more than did Whitefoot. But it didn't once enter his head that Whitefoot was feeling so badly about it until one day he happened over near Whltefoots house. Suddenly he heard a little squeaky voice say; dear! dear! I wish I were dead! I Co. I wish I were dead." Buster Btopped short and looked up with a funny look of surprise on his face. There, looking out of a little round hole near the top of a small stump, sat Whitefoot the Wood Mouse, and it was very clear that Whitefoot was so busy feeling sorry for himself that he hsant seen Buster Bear at all.

Woof, woof! What is all this? demanded Buster in his deep, rumbly-grumbly voice. With a little squeal of fright Whitefoot dodged back out of sight, but in minute he popped out again. Its all your fault," he sobbed. "I wish I were dead. I've half a mind to come down right now and let you catch me." Wrinkles of sheer good nature made puckers around Busters eyes.

"I wouldnt do that, said he mildly. "Im not feeling hungry foT mouse Just now, and I would rather have you wait until am. Now, you little pinch of fur and bones, what alls you, and what Is it that is my fault; Whitefoot looked down into the good-natured face looking up at him. He felt that he had just got to tell some one his troubles, and it might as well be Buster Bear as anv one else. Besides, Buster was to blame for it all, anyway.

If Buster hadnt run away that time he, Whitefoot, wouldn't be the laughing stock of all the Green Forest. So Whitefoot began at the beginning and told Buster how he had seen Buster run that day when he had rustled the dead leaves right behind Buster, of how he had told it as a Joke, and how no one had believed him, but ever since then had teased him and laughed at him." Busters face grew sober as he listened. Suddenly he realized what it must have meant to little Whitefoot to feel that he had frightened him, had actually made him run, and then what must mean to have no one believe it, but instead to laugh at him and make fun of him for believing it himself. Don't you feel bad any more, said he gruffly. "Ill fix It so that no one will laugh at you or make fun of you any more.

And Buster Bear was as good as his word. He went all through the Green Forest telling every one he met that it was true that he had run from Whitefoot the Wood Mouse. It was a hard thing to do because then every one laughed at him, but he did it. And this shows how really big Buster Bear is. He did a great big thing for tiny Whitefoot.

He showed that he has Just as big a heart as he has body. So Whitefoot became something of a hero. Folks stopped teasing him and teased Buster Bear instead. But down in their hearts they thought more of Buster Bear than ever before. As for Whitefoot, he was as happy as he had been miserable.
