the food was palatable and he had eaten heartily. Of course he swears by

Making Money for the Church
"Besides selling recipes for eggless, butterless cake, we made seasoning
bags to sell, for soups and such, using eight peppercorns, four cloves,
six mustard seeds, one third teaspoon celery seed, four tiny sprigs each
of thyme, summer savory, sweet basil, and parsley in each. This gives a
blend pleasant to many tastes, and it is sufficient to flavor a soup for
a large family. When the soup seems to have taken enough of the flavor
the bag should be removed. To make one bag at a time would be foolish,
but when enough are made to last the year out it helps out in fine
shape. We also made jelly bags for sale, many ladies not having the
right thickness of cloth in the house at jelly-making time."
"At Christmas time the young girls of our congregation made quite a few
dollars for the church by selling boxes of preserved orange. This is
their recipe: Cut six large navel oranges in slices the long way of the
fruit, and boil, until tender, in three waters, pouring off the water
each time. Make a syrup of five cups of sugar and one cup of water and
boil the orange in this until the syrup is almost boiled away. Remove
with skimmer and let stand half an hour and roll each piece in
granulated sugar. The confection was packed in dainty white boxes and
covered with paraffin paper. They found a very ready sale."--K. C. B.
"It has been our experience that everyday necessities in the household
are better sellers than fancy nicknacks," writes a reader, "and when the
social club of our church met last winter we decided to stick to them.
Here are some of the things we made with the result that when we held
our sale at Easter there was not one article left over and we had the
sum of ninety-five dollars in the treasury."
