Keep one in the pantry for brushing milk over the top of pie crust before baking, also to grease your bread pans and cake tins, so all the corners are sure to be greased well. Use one to spread your stove polish to get in places a cloth cannot be used without getting the hands all mussed up.

VIRGINIA REEL FOR YOUTHS
Known In England as Sir Roger dc CoverIy, Is Enjoyed by Old Peo-
 pie as We'll as Youngsters.

At almost all children's partieA they finish up with dance which in America is called the Virginia reel and in England Sir Roger de Cover ly. Grown people are just as fond of this dance as the youngsters, but it naturally belongs to the children, as the idea of 1t was taken from very old children's game called the shep- herdess, which is still very popular in France.
 The children form line and then the /leader stands a little to the left and the next child a little to the right and they raise their hands as high as their heads and from a barrier, which all the sheep must pass through. The next child in line be- comes the shepherdess and calls to her little lambs to follow her through the barrier, which they do while sing ng a little French song.
 After the last sheep has passed safely under the two children that formed the barrier drop into line at the end, and the two at the head of the line form the next barrier and so on, until every child has had turn at being part of the barrier for the others to pass under.

A Safe Rule.

Tea and coffee should not be given to child under seven, and the longer the delay the better. A good cocoa is often enjoyed, milk and water and di- Iuted condensed milk may also be giv- Hn, and, very cautiously, plain soda water. It should never be forgotten that milk is a food and not drink, and that plenty of water flushes the kidneys. There is no reason why a healthy child should not drink when It feels thirsty.

U. s. STUDENTS FRIVOLOUS?

If his complexion were a shade lighter, short heavy, spectacled man who has been nearly a month in this country studying conditions and leo- turing at universities, could easily pose as Rudyard Kipling, the great English author. He is Dr. Inazo Nitobe, Tokyo, Japan. So much does Dr. Nitobe resemble Rudyard Kipling, at one view of his countenance, that 1t is really startling. But it is one view effect only. When he turns again he looks only like the typical Japa- nese that he is.
 His mind is filled with impress sions that are registered by two sharp brown eyes that look through heavy spectacles. Dr. Nitobe, who has been studying the country, and its people, and incidentally has been giving some thought to the student while featuring at universities, is the first representa- tive of the pedagogues who are to come to this country under the ar- rangement provided by means of the

TO FOUND NEW CITY OF ZION

Mrs. Jane Dowie, widow of the late John Alexander Dowie, first apos- tie of Zion, is attempting reconstruc- ton of the Zionist movement in Chi e9zo.
 Believing herself divinely inspired to carry out the work her husband began, Mrs. Dowie came to Chicago last fall and gathered about her the few remaining members of the prophets original flock. An exile from Zion City and the tabernacles her husband founded, she planned to re- build the Zion congregation with the aid of Gladstone Dowie, "unkssed" son of the departed Elijah II.
 The younger Dowie was in full sympathy with the plans of his mother, but apparently lacked the divine inspiration for the task she has undertaken. He had already resigned from the present church at Zion City following the assumption of absolute control of Wilbur Glenn Voliva, gen. eral oyerseer and successor apparent
