Motherhood Woman's Business.

The accumulated force of all nature
for all time is not to be baked by ex-
preston in this eliminating species.
Motherhood-if anything-is woman s
business. That business has been for
ever interfered with by a man-made
world; by warfare and sllipwreck, by
accident and injustice, by vice and ex-
cesses without end--all on the fathers
side.
While drink and war and crime kill
thousands and hundreds of thousands,
while our railroads alone destroy more
men each year than many a battlefield,
it does seem somwhat absurd to turn
about and cry to patient motherhood
for more children. Napoleon was frank
and consistent, saying women were
only to be valued for their number OF
children-he called them cannon
food" A little less cannon food may
tend to reduce the appetite for cannon.
Moreover if there are any women SO
ignorant, shallow and unnaturally sell
fish as to deliberately forego mother
hood-then we are we'll rid of her
species.-Charlotte Perkins Gilman in
Womans Home Companion.

thickness and cut in Ratchet shapes,
using sharp pointed knife, being
guided by soft cardboard pattern
previously prepared. Place candied
cherry on each Ratchet, and brush
over with the white of egg slightly
beaten and diluted with two teaspoon
fuls of water. Place on a tin sheet
and bake in a slow oven until delicate
ly browned.-Woman's Home Com

Salad Rolls.

These small rolls are always needed
and always find favor to serve with
salads, croquettes, outlets, timbales
and the like. They are made of rich
Parker House roll mixture but are
shaped differently. Add one fourth OF
cupful of butter, two tablespoonfuls
of sugar and one teaspoonful of salt
to two cupfuls of scalded milk; when
lukewarm add one yeast cake dissolv-
ed in one fourth of a cupful of luke
warm water, and three cupfuls of
bread flour. Beat thoroughly. cover
and let rise until light; cut down, and
add enough flour to knead (about two
and one half cupfuls will be required).
Let rise again, toss on a slightly -four
ed board, and knead and shape i'm
small biscuits. Place in rows on a
Toured board, cover with cloth and
pan, and let rise until light and well
puffed. Flour the handle of a wooden
spoon, and make a deep crease in the
middle of each biscuit; take up and
press the edges thus made together.
Place closely in butterei pan. cover.
let rise, and bake twelve minutes in a
hot oven.-Fannie Merritt Farmer in

What are you PREACHING?

The preachers outside of the pulpits
should be very careful to preach good
sermons, for their congregation is
very large, very observant and very
critical, and furthermore in very great
need of good preaching. The most
effective preachers outside of the
pulpits are not the ministers in the
interval between Sundays although
they can do a great deal of good or
evil during that, time, but the people
who have taken the name Christian
and are going about among men. and
men by the thousands are watching
them and being influenced by them.
Every layman is preacher more eff
fective sometimes than the minister
himself. What then are you preach
ing? Are you preaching. patience
When you have trials? Are You
preaching integrity in the face of great
temptation? Are you preaching faith.
and nope, and cheerfulness by the
faithfulness, and hopefulness of your
daily life?-Universalist Leader.
