To Tighten Maids Work.

1t has often been said that ironing
is tedious work, and trying. But 1t
may be made less so by trying few
simple expedients.
One of these is a floor cushion.
Make fiat pad of excelsior, three
inches thick, and big enough to stand
upon comfortably.
Another is the kneeboard-three
feet long, thin and light-which may
be held on the lap, thus making it
possible to sit while ironing small
things as collars, handkerchiefs, doll
les, etc.
A third, for table linen, is the roll
err. Get a big cardboard mailing tube
as long as folded tablecloth is wide
and fasten a narrow ribbon inside. so
a yard hangs out at the end. Then in
stead of folding the ironed cloth, roll
it around the tube and tie down the
end with ribbon, cross the strings,
pass them around the roll and tie on
the other side, so keeping the cloth
smooth and compact-EX.

Enthusiasm triumphs; it moves,
it charms, it is the outburst of sin
certify carrying conviction of truth"
The Common Greed.

That must have been a wondrous
vision in Montreal last Sunday when
with one accord and single impulse,
the vast multitude assembled for the
Eucharistic Congress fell upon it's
knees as the bearer of the Sacred
Host raised the monstrance upon
high. Thus did the faithful proclaim
their veneration but this natural and
expected devotion of those of the
church was not the signal that pro-
nounced the Canadian celebration a
thing rarely equaled in the annals of
religious history in America
The startlingly beautiful thing
about the hushed multitude on IT'S
knees before the sacred emblem was
the fact that many faiths and many
creeds and, even, no creed at all, were
represented among those thousands
upon thousands of people Many inter-
ests, many classes and conditions OF
life were represented in that huge
concourse. Men who would fight each
other to the wall tomorrow, women
who did not pretend to understand the
mode of life of the humble of their
sex, children who comprehend
ed nothing but who felt a
vast and all1compelling awe
steal upon them as if by magic
And yet that vast army of men, wo-
men and children knelt, with one ac-
cord"
In this day of diversified faiths and
many churches, nothing reveals more
clearly to the confused soul seeking
light, the simple faith which under
lies in the majority of mankind the
outer semblance of difference. Cath
Ollie, Protestant and Jew seek the true
faith as they see the true faith and it
matters not how various are it's en-
bellishments, the underlying desire to
live right ife and a pure life and to
save ones soul into another world as
yet unknown is common to mankind
however he may refuse to admit it.
Whatever of a rogue or a criminal
man may be, he always harbors the
unconscious or unexpressed hope and
belief that he will squeeze through
somehow" No man seeks the abode of
the condemned save for reason which
moves him to such stress of emotioa
that it overtops all finer instincts in
him. In calm moments, it is the COM
mon impudence of humanity, black
and white, sinner and saint, that 1t
will see the heavens eternal upon
leaving this shore. Vast millions of
men lay great stress upon the quality
of mercy and with reason.

Baked Beans with Apples.

Another tasty way of baking beans
is with apples. To make soak one pint
pea beans over night In the morning
cover with fresh water and bring to
boil When the scum rises skim it off,
bring again to a boil, then drain.
Rinse and pour over the beans a
quart of water, one-half cup sugar
and salt and pepper to season. Bring
again to a boil, and simmer until the
skins crack. Put into a bean pot one
pound of fresh pork, unless you pre-
fer one-half cupful olive oil or drip
pings, one large onion sliced, two
good-sized potatoes peeled and cut in
HAYES and two apples peeled, cored
and cut in halves. Pour the beans into
the pot, cover and bake four hours N
a moderate oven. If the beans bake
dry, add little more boiling water

To Reduce Waist Line.

Fortunately for the heavy girl, the
slender waist is no longer consider
ed essential to beauty. There is, how
ever, a difference between the added
inches of the modern corset correctly
adjusted and a waist that is hopeless
ly thick
The latter is so ugly that it should
be fought, particularly as it tends 20
make, one short wasted. The best way
for this fighting is by constant walk
ing with chest up and chin elevated
Rapid walking with a free stride
breaks up the fatty deposits and
makes a more graceful, plant figure.
Another exercise to reduce size CO
waist is to take STOPPING exercises in
every direction. Do not bend the
knees, then bending from the waist
touch the floor with tips of fingers dir
ectly in front of you and to each side.
Walking with heavy book ON top
of the head keeps the chest up and
draws away superfuous flesh from
the waist line.
Stretching upward of the body,
drawing ones self erect, and keeping
in that position, then slowly eXhaling,
if repeated frequently, will make the
waist simmer; so will pulling a long
stroke in a rowboat or in one of the
rowing exercises.
All of those movements are far
wiser than to seek to acquire slim
waist through corset laces.-EX.

as a rule have blamed the boy, not the

the case may warrant, every parent
and teacher should look into this all
important situation most thoroughly
in order that no unfortunate blunder
on their part may make of the train
ing ground of the future, field badly
ploughed and seeded and more likely
to give forth tares than wheat. What
the Post says on this subject is vi
tally interesting:
Between the prevailing principle
of public school authorities that the
child should have a superficial ac-
quaintance with many subjects and
the desire of practical parents that
they shall be thoroughly taught, the
children in our public schools, and
especially in the grammar grades, are
being overburdened with work The
condition is very trying one to chill
dren who desire to keep up with the
class and who seek to do earnest,
thorough work.
There are signs that educators are
willing to modify their opinions up
on the question of comprehensive
studies and are inclined to return to
thorough drill in smaller daily as
signments.
There is no doubt that the school
course is overloaded in all of it's de-
partments. Many things contribute to
this, and chief among them are the
specializing upon many subjects and
the privilege of election. Subjects
which now occupy a prominent place
in the school course should be taught
incidentally, or best of all, eliminated.
Too much is attempted, and practical
ly nothing is done WELL The dissatis-
faction that parents and employers
have long felt regarding the product
of public schools is well founded and
can no longer be dismissed as ignor-
ant criticism, nor can the matter of
public school education be any longer

psychology in which many have lost
their way, there prevails in every
community much more intelligent
understanding of the ends and aims
of education than was the case even
ten years ago. Not very much weight
has been attached to the wishes of the
public in educational matters in any
of our large cities; but the time has
now come when, to secure the best
possible results, there must be Sc

The Birth of Vanity.

In Eden's garden, their first day,

They chose a rose-path to forsake
To rove beside tranquil axe.
Eve gazen therein; its surface shone
With beauty's eyes, that met her own.
She turned to Adam; "Ah, look, there!
Beneath the lake an angel fair"
Then, where she pointed, Adam, too
Looked-and at first her words SEEM
ed true.

That face so fair is but your own;
Now see your laugh the surface
break
You are the angel of the lake"
She looked-a breeze played with her
hair
Yes, twas her own reflection there.
"Ah, ADAM" said she, "ere you knew
You took me for an angel, too"
