What a pity it is that children are not encouraged more in the directions in which they show most aptitude early, whether It be drawing, or mu- sic, or mathematics, or whatever it be. In speaking of the former the “Kern- mic Studio" says: "Children should learn to draw as they learn to write. and such a mystery should not be made of It. They should be encour~ aged. not flattered. As 'it is. every child shows some disposition to draw early—marking on doors. tables. books, ‘whoie sheets of paperiw‘which must not be wasted,’ while the parents who would save that paper, write the most vspid nonsense. With no help and encouragement the child gradually loses its desire to draw. gets interest- ed in other things, until the wish to draw again breaks out, and then dou- ble effort. is required to get the facil- lty which might have been gained in- sensibly."

For a first mess I'd take about two cups of granulated sugar, pour it into a steel saucepan and put over the gas flame (not too high) or over a good coal tire. The peanuts must have been previously cleaned and put through the meat chopper, so that one‘s undivided attention can be given to the sugar, and a piece of butter the size of a large walnut should be at hand. flutter a very large platter or a couple of small ones to receive the brittle; the thinner It is spread the more easily It is broken and eaten. As soon as the sugar Is put. over the tire begin to stir it and do not stop one instant until it Is thoroughly melted. Remember there Is not to ho a bit of water put. with the sugar. As it be- gins to warm the particles will grud- ually adhere to one another and just before it melts the whole will be a mass of large crumbs and tho stirring must on very thorough and rapid. When melted toss in the ground peat unis. stirring rapidly till mixed (which will be but a minute). then add tho. lump of butter, stir, and spread on tho platters. it burdens instantly and Is very crisp and tender.
