most interesting disclosures.

LEMON GINGER PUNCH WITH
MINT.

The older boys like this. Make an
unusually strong lemonade, using five
lemons and a cupful of sugar to each
quart of water. To every quart of
lemonade allow one quart of ginger
ale. Put both together in big punch
bowl, with a piece of ice. Have ready
a number of sprigs of mint carefully
washed. Bruise the stems and lower
leaves between the fingers so as to
bring out the flavor of the mint. Half
an hour before serving put into the
punch-bowl.

Liquors and other things of like kind
are often used in the syrup, but they
are not necessary. The above makes
a nice syrup; and if you have used
any timed fruits, such as pineapple,
the juice along with it makes nice
addition.

Owe are now face to face with a
peculiar situation. No doubt the
Russians, French and English will
pray God to give them victory, but
there is but one God, and since He
is Just and impartial. and they are
also His children, we, in order to
win, must work as we'll as pray. We
must fight harder than the others.

guns. but big guns will certainly
help Him make a. right decision. "

AFTER THE WAR-WHAT?
VERY GLOOMY OUTLOOK

After reviewing at considerable
length the great benefits coming to
the United States through the fact
that this country is not at war, or
likely to go to war. the Philadelphia
Ledger turns its eyes to Europe and
utters these mournful words:
"Overtaxed and semi-bankrupt
monarchies now plunge themselves
into a deeper morass of debt. They
are actually destroying tens OF mil
lions of their own wealth every day.
These war-torn lands. after the
strife is over. will not only stagger
under their back-breaking debts.
but will at once begin to nurse new
armies and navies for revenge at
some future day.
