Heroine doesn't fit the letters or the clue! We need to know 25 - Hermione ?
HEROINE
Horse is a street name for Heroin and add E for English and you get HEROINE. The heroine referred to is Elizabeth Bennett in Pride and Prejudice, another of Jane Austen's works.

23d 'Another one' means another term for a sailor (see previous clue) hence SALT and add Ed for Edward and you get SALTED which prevents food going off.
I do wish people would type their questions correctly...
Question Author
Arabesque, thank you. Your explanation was very good.

Quizmonkey, do you never make a mistake and mistype something?
If I were asking for an answer and giving the letters and spaces then no: I would double check that it was correct. Makes the question pretty pointless otherwise, don't you agree?
Furthermore, both questions referred to other clues which weren't given in the post. I don't know about others, but I still haven't mastered this psychic trick yet.
You don't need to be psychic gen2 - just take the Daily Mail and do the crossword!
