1t is painful to read the particulars
of the numerous divorce sIits that fill
the columns of the daily papers. Many
of these sad events are from good
homes and the interested parties
stand high in social life, and not a
few in church life. This separation
between husband and wife is one Of
the sad scenes in human existence.
Many times either would perfer death

What is more refining Of captlvat-

family circle. especially is this true
when the sisters lend the charm OF
their presence, and their sweet voices
accompany the flute, the cornet or
the violin. or when the subtitle touch
OF their delicate fingers calls forth
the richest harmony from the harp
or the guitar. How many men could
be snatched from the haunts OF in
Ieuity by the bewitching music OF
their sisters, II parents would but

WORKED OVER FOOD
Manner i'm Which Spoiled Shelf ls
Quickly Renovated For Sale.

From What to Eat:
Here is what a Chicago fruit pack
err has to say of the food-renovating
process as it is conducted:
Goods of all kinds are canned by
putting them into tins and then max
ing the tins alright. The cans are
then subjected to heat sufficient TO
kill all the life germs inside. When
the heat subsidies the fruit or veget-
able in the can decreases in volume
and a vacuum is formed within which
tends to contract the can.
eff, however, the heat should be
insufficient to fulfill its purpose, or
if there is a small hole in the can,
or it, after year or so the aclds
contained in the preserved matter
are strong enough to eat through the
tin at some joint-then the goods
spoil. They become hopelessly in
fected and odorous, and unless neut-
RAILING acids or chemicals are intro
duced (Which, by the way, do not de-
stroy poisons), there is no possibility
of foisting the cans on the public.
with regard to legitimate reno
waiting, as 1t is carried on by reliable
houses, no vegetables or meats or fish
can be reprocessed. Only certain
fruits, such as plums, Strawberries
and cherries, which are canned with
the seeds in, can be treated success
fully.
'The renovator bores two holes in
the end of the can which is swelled
and heats it, forcing out the air and
gazes. Then the can is resealed. Re-
novated goods can always be detect
ed by the soldering over the two holes
in the end of the can. Sale of such
goods is principally to bakeries and
such places, where the fruits are used
in making pies, etc.
vegetables and meats when they
are spoiled are rotten, and nothing
can restore them"
Such "reprocessing" plans may
constitute a separate department of
factory or be an independent in
stitution that buys up all the spoiled
fods of well known houses and by
the renovation converts them into
marketable foods

TO STAY-AT-HOMES.
Bazaar:


A change of air and scene is very
desirable, but all of us cannot have
these luXuries. Luxuries they are,
though there has grown up an idea
that they are necessities. Let those
of us who perforce stay at home con-
sole ourselves with two reflections.
First, that our forefathers never
dreamed of shutting up and leaving
their homes for weeks at time, and
yet they lived in comfort and died
at a ripe old age. Second, that wheth-
er we get through the summer COM
fortably or not depends much more
on ourselves than on our surround
ings. A nervous, fretful woman will
let the heat wear her out quite as
much at the mountains or seashore
as If she had never left home. A Sc
rene habit of mind and determination
to make the best of things will carry
one triumphantly through the hot
days and over the weary nights, even
i: they must be spent among bricks
instead of by rolling waves or rus
Ting trees.
