a TEMPORARY HOME
For Women and Children-A Worthy
Institution.

For Women and Children-A Worthy
Institution.
This Home in Deering just beyond the
limits of Portland, has peculiar claims
upon the womanhood of Maine With an
annual State appropriation inadequate to
its support, it largely depends upon it's
lists of annual subscribers, and, in the
past, to the generous gifts of its directors
and their friends in Portland and else
where. Now in its seventeenth year, the
record of its failures and successes is
deely engraven upon the hearts of those
through whose efforts the Home was es-
ia blished and continues to this day
As the directors co operate with each
other in the care of the inmates confer
ring constantly upon the details of their
condition, their special needs both tenn
poral and spiritual. there comes to each
the conviction that beyond her own fam
lily obligations, she has become in
measure responsible for the we'll being
and doing of the women and children TO
whom has been given the protection of
the Home
/,
temptation and desertion. she constantly
asks: Nv no made us to difer?n and:
what would become of such but for this
open door in the time of their greatest
need?"
Unusual demands have been met the
past year, and to avoid mourning debt
our directors are doubling than
y lit,
help of personal friends. Dear sisters of
Hancock county, will you not come to our
aid in this emergency? Some of the large
towns have subscription list-Portland,
Bangor and others Will you not follow
their example, giving annually according
to your ability? Nine of your unfor-
tunates have sought our protection, and
Others may need it in the future.
In ways of which most of US women
are still uncon cious the women of the
past have contributed to the pitia BILE con
ditions which lead SO many to their
downfall In no surer way, yet possible,
can we retrieve these conditions than by
fulfilling the gospel injunction to wash
one another's feet, to help draw out of
the mlre of unbrldled passions the feet OF
society and place them upon the firm
uplands of temperance and purity.
For the children of the Home, no bane-
full heredity is allowed to discourage be-
cause of our faith in the 'measureless
power of safe and clean environments
while for our young women, never for
getting that great law OF our Fathers
eternal love by which no people-no one
class of persons or people can ever enter
into the fulness of their inheritance till all
enter; so that the absolute necessity is
laid upon US to lift up the bowed down
from whatever cause till all His wander
ing children are brought into His fold "

To Get Rid of a Past.

The only sure way to get rid Of past
is by getting a future out of it | am
sure it would help US if we could only
see that often sin is perversion of
good, that, as is often the case, the very
sin came from "a part of our nature that
God made, a sense of justice, strong
affections or something that if only
turned in the right direction would
have made US whole. Do not think there
is no good in you. There is, or there
would be nothing to appeal to. Phillips

The Woman of Small Means,

Sometimes a wife settles down into q
dreary, domestic routine, honestly be-
lieving that until her husbands finances
improve there is no other course for her
to pursue" writes Helen Jay in Ladies
Home Journal.
SIN this matter, as in many others con-
corning home life, the false standard OF
money obtains rather than the simple law
of common-sense. The very fact that
many people can afford elaborate enter
tainments does not imply that they can
not enjoy simple ones. Novelty is the
charm of life, as variety is its spice,
and very often the guests who come from,
luxurious homes are the most easily
pleased
"Competent housekeepers are generally
the most generous in their estimate OF
the efforts of others, and the young
housewife who through fear Of criticism
refuses to invite her richer or more ex-
perienced friend to her home is simply
cheating herself of much pleasure. In
fact, he real breaks of social intercourse
are quite apt to come from self-deprecia-
ton on the part of the woman with the
small income as from any feeling OF
superiority on the part of her more
wealthy friends"

One OF the ways in which religious
revival has already shown tokens Of its
coming is i'll the growing recognition
of the social meanings of religion
Hitherto religion has given much of its
thought to the future but now it is
turning more and more to the problems
Of the present and especially to the eff
fort to unity and inspire social life. The
great social need of the present. as well
as the great religious need, is for such
a conception of life and its obligations
as will bring men into harmony with
each other, SO that they may realize
that all their interests are mutual and
common. The brotherhood of men is
much spoken of now, and we find the
sentiment noble and inspiring one,
but we must come to see that it has the
deepest and widest meanings which re-
Egion can anywhere find. 1t implies all
other things which religion can posi-
bly, mean, and to put it into actual life
is the one promise for religion in the
future. christian Register

BREAKFAST DRINKS.
THE ANERI
Ellsworth, Me.


Last week THE AMERICAN had some
recipes for nice breakfast food. Here is
something timely about breakfast drinks.
For coffee, allow a dessert spoonful of
coffee to each cup of water Warm the
coffee a little and pour the water on at
boiling heat and set where it will steep
without boiling for few minutes. Then
gradually bring it to boil not over half
minute. Add a little white of egg if
preferred. Let it settle before pouring
out.
Another way which is good is to pour
the water on while cold and let it grad
ually come to a boiling point The main
thing is not to let it boil long but set it
back as soon as it reaches that point
Heating the milk and putting that and
the sugar in the cup before the coffee is
great Improvement.
Cocoa is very nice made this way: For
each cup, l teaspoonful cocoa and the
same of sugar, or quantity TO taste Pour
off the cream from the milk to be used,
and set the skim milk to scald Pour
boiling water over the cocoa in the cup
after mixing it well with the sugar. till
the cup is about half full. or less if pre-
ferred fill with the scalding milk nearly
to the top, then add the cream 1t is vastly
better than when made with water only
Egg shells will settle coffee nicely if well
washed before breaking and put in with
tie white that adheres to the ends
trea may he made by pouring over il
boiling water after warming the tea
little, and then let it steep slowly few
minutes, or as coffee, put in cold water
and bring it to the boiling point, then set
where it will merely keep hot but do not
let it set long.
FROZEN EGGS.
Here is something seasonable to remem-
Der though it is not new If an egg is
frozen put it in cup and pour on boiling
water enough to cover it. Let it stand till
cool and unless frozen very hard it will be
as good as ever. Don't be afraid of the
water cooking it, it will not. Try it,
HAMS.
Here is something about hams. After
letting the ham remain in the pickle just
long enough to strike the salt through put
II In jar or hrkln just large enough to
hold it, pour over ii one half pint mo-
lasses, sprinkle on a tablespoonful each
of cloves and cassia, add just water
enough to cover it. Let it set in this
sweet pickle few days, then drain and
smoke it. The spices give it nice flavor
AS the best cook is she who can make
something nice out of almost nothing"
here is one way TO do it. Take the little
bits of fried ham that are often left over
chop fine, pat into little balls like fish
balls, beat an egg and dip the balls in it,
then fry lightly and serve hot.
In cooking ham, if the fat part is cut up
fine it is better than if left as cut.
LEFT OVER PIE.
fany small pieces of beefsteak are left
over they are very nice chopped fine and
made into pie like chicken pie, or put in
dish and steamed with crust like the
old fashioned pot pie.
