Household Hclns.

II is surprising the many different apre-
tizing ways that Corned Beef can he pre-
pared for the family's meals. Every one
likes Corned Beef and there is no more
healthful or delicious dish than Libby's,
carefully selected from prime beef and
properly cured"
There is some waste, to be sure, when
bought at the butchers. but in the plan
here suggested you may buy the finest
corned beef in the world in which there
is absolutely no waste and every particle
Of which can be eaten.
Suppose you ask your grocer for Lib
by's Corned Beef. 1t represents all full
value-no bone, no gristle-just clean, pure
corned beef selected first hand from the
finest beef stock-no scraps or second
pieces-and corned and cooked to per
lection in Libby's wonderful white en-;
Beef sliced and served cold with dill
pickles and potato salad is a delightful
meal and will be enough for four people.
Corned Beef Hash.-Take the contents
Of a can, chop fine, add one-fourth rs much
boiled or baked potatoes, a little fried
onion and a small quantity of water. Cook
slowly until thoroughly heated, then serve
on toast with or without poached eggs.
Corned Beef Omelette.-Beat the Yolks
and whites of -four eggs senarately and add
one-half Of the whites to all of the yolks.
Put i'll a hot frying pan and, when nicely
Drowned on the bottom, sprinkle a cup OF
minced corned beef over it. Spread over
this the remainder of the whites, put in
the oven and brown on top. Then fold
and serve.
Dreamed Corned Beef.--Mince the con-
tents of a can of Libby Corned Beef.
Put over this a dressing of cream gravy
with the yolk of an egg beaten into it,
Serve on toast.
New Englahi Boiled Dinner.-You may
have this in one-fourth of the time /
usually takes. Put a can of Libby's Cornell
Beef in boiling water--it is already cooked
and serve in the usual manner with
vegetables.
Besides the economy in the use of Lib
by's Corned Beef, another great advantage
to the housewife in using it is that it is all
cooked when bought and there is no neces-
sity for the long, tedious and expensive
boiling which is necessary with raw coined
beef. The house is not fllel with sSecni
and odors and valuable time is save.
Libby's Corned Beef is ready at once fer
serving in any one of the many woys men,
toned above, and you will find it a great
convenience to try it next time. Be sure
you get Libby, Mcneil & Libby's Cor-,cd

A Cylical SYNONYM.

"Poor Myra Kelley" said a maya
zine editor at the Authors Club il
New York, was almost as distressed
as Mr.. Carnegie at the spirit of graft
and crookedness rampant among us.
The young writer, at a dinner of
magazine contributors, said thai We
worshiped wealth-that was oui
trouble. Then she ~crystallize1 her
meaning in an anecdote.
She said that one man asked an
other:
What position does Blank holl
in the community
"A very honorable position was
the reply.
Is he wealthy?'
Wealth and honor said the
other, are synonymous terms in
America to-day "-Washington Star.

modffied by circumstances ana peo-
pie who are near about US. Edward
Everett Hale said that he made it a
practice to spend at least n hour
every day in the presence of a supe-
rior. Thus books may come to influ-
ence us more largely than we dream
of. A summer days reading ome
times has determined a campaign for
truth that has meant great things for
righteousness among men.
Probably underlying the organiza-
ton of the Church of God there is
this subtle philosophy or principle
that by association with people OF
high thought and noble purpose and
mighty resolve, our eyes may be
lifted to the SUBMITS toward which
we should eagerly press. But there
was also the determining influence or
prayer that made possible the vision
of the higher resources of life. Elisha
prayed and the young man saw things
in a different light. Both Browning
and Tennyson have reminded us that
prayer is an important factor in life's
activities, and that many a battle has
issued in victory or defeat, as the re-
suit of ~steadfast prayer. Many a
prodigal has come back to the Faith
er's house and many a hayward heart
has returned to the statutes and tes-
timonies of God because, in a quiet
place, some heart has ~fervently be
sought the intercession Of the Most
High. 1t seems to be a great thing to
be able to beget a vision of the higher
things in another soul by the word OF
prayer, and yet it is true that many a
life would have gone unblessed and
many a mind would hav been per-
'manently beset by doubt were it rot
for the praying soul that has been
persistent before the throne Of God.
But supremely the vision of the
higher life is the gift of God. How
ever eager Elisha was that the larger
vision might be given to his friend.
and however f%ervently his soul poured
itself out in prayer, the eye were
opened and the young man saw be-
cause God uncovered his eyes. Some
one in critical mood once said to J.
M. w. Turner, 81 never saw such sun.
SETS" and Turner replied, Don't YOU
wish you could?"
If life is eve to be successful; il
we are ever to enter into the mastery
of ourselves; if ever we abandon the
disposition to shirk and dodge life's
responsibilities and duties, it will be
made possible largely through the
greater outlook on life which shall be
ours. When our eyes are opened and
we see life's problems in their proper
setting, and then appreciate all the
resources and reservations which are
within the reach of those who try to
do Gods will. we shall go forth with
the step Of conquestand enter into the
larger victories which reward those
only who have had the larger vision.
1t is vitality important that we should
always be on the lookout for God.

Afraid of NV Will.

In the noon prayer meeting not
long ago a good sister prayed, Lord.
we're afraid of our wills. We're
afraid to do our wills for fear of the
consequences. Teach us Thy will"
There was something striking about
that prayer. The majority of people,
including even some professed Chris
tians, are afraid of Gods will rather
than their own. But the real Chris
tan is afraid of his own, and like his
Master says, mot my will, but Thine,
be done."-Moody Church Herald.

Emancipation In China.

Notwithstanding that part of the
imperial rescript abolishing slavery
in China Is nominal rather than an
actual manumission, consisting in
pI ohibiting the retainers of the Man
chu princes from being called slaves
hereafter and the designating the
household slaves of the Manchus as
hired servants without changing
their condition of bondage for life,
it's general terms will eventually lead
to the freedom of millions Of human
beings and put a stop to slavery in
the empire. A notable provision is
that forbidding the sale of children
in times of famine, an immoral Gus
tom, although still permitting as a
compromise terms of bonded service
until the age of rs.
The issue of the rescript makes
at least a significant beginning to-
ward the ultimate freedom of the
Chinese by official recognition of the
Improperly of the barter and sale
of human beings. Changes come
slowly in hat land, and while the
extinction of slavery there may be
deferred for years, the fact that it
has at least been undertaken is that
much gain for civilization.-Pitts-
