CANADA WANTS
A FINISH FIGHT

NEW YORK. Dec. 23.--Incon-
elusive peace in Europe would be
as unsatisfactory TO Canada and
the rest OF the British dominions
as II would be to the mother coun-
try. That was the conviction voic-
ed by Sir Robert Laird Borden.
prime minister of the Canadian
government, in an address at the
New England society's 10th annu-
al dinner here last night.
He has recently returned from
conferences In England and France
over the war situation.
Canadians. he said, are convinced
that the conflict not only concerns
the power and influence OF the
British empire but viii exercise q
great influence on the worlds fu.

OF liberty and upon theory and
practice of autonomous government
applied wherever conditions permit
and to the most generous extent
that experience can possibly sane
ton. For this supreme reason, the
empire is strong in the day OF
trial
He said that nearly 100000
Canadian soldiers have gone across
the seas for service during the last
ten months. at an average rate or
1000 week.

Perhaps it is the fact that the new
veil is SO often fastened to the hat
that marks its great differences from
the wells of the past. For it at once

Needless to say. it is the smaller
hats with which these fiaring wells are
worn-which only emphasises their
flare.
They are gathered TN to- the size Of

near the crown under a band of trim

The Autumn Veil.


Have you grasped the essential char
acteristics of the veil Of the autumn
of 1915? @
It is difficult to believe that this veil
can be anything but popular. for it
has all the e1usiveness and charm and
mystery of the veil of the east-at
least, it has many of those character
istics. quite enough of them to make
it appealing. 1t is not the crisp. use
full bit of mesh that is pulled snugly
if jauntily and smartly over the face
for the obvious and real purpose of
keeping the hair from b1owing-the
sort of veil that has been worn for the
last few years when any ven at all mas
been worn. Really the women OF
America have been keeping the liking
for wells alive, for French fashions
have taken little cognizance of wells
for several seasons.
No. the new veil is different. 1t has
all the beauty of the folded lines Of sheer
fabric that a veil should have. 1t is
a hindrance rather than a help in the
wind-and this bit of unreasonable
ness on its part will doubtless help 1t
to win favor.
The new veil is, moreover, attached
to the hat with which it is worn when
it is really shown in its perfection. 1t
hangs in f1aring folds about the face
and hair and touches, even shrouds.

ingredients. If it is not good, at least
no other food is spoiled by it.

Eggs should always be kept so that
old ones will be- used before the new
supply is touched. That is, each dozen
or batch bought ought to be kept in a
separate basket or dish.
Authorities on eggs say that eggs
should not be washed until just be-
fore they are used, as washing removes
something from the shell which pro-
tects the inside of the egg. However,
many housekeepers would rather buy
eggs oftener and ip smaller quantities
placed iH the interior of a spotless re-
frigerator. Eggs should always be
washed before they are broken, as any
dirt on the ouside of the shell may be
carried, in the breaking, to the inside.
them In a glass, unbroken, and cover
them with cold water. This will keep
them soft. If necessary to keep two
days. renew the water the second day.
Pour off carefully before using.
Always plan to use white and yolk
That is to say. if you
are making angel cake, plan to make
or a custard at the same
time If you are making gold cake,
plan to use the whites in whip or
meringue.
When eggs are to be boiled, be very
careful not. to crack the shells in
dropping them into the water, as the
white ( quickly comes through the
cracked shell and then the egg is
wasted.
If eggs are always washed before
opening, the shells can be saved for
settling or clarifying soup and coffee
and jelly

THE BEST OF EGGS.

Do you know how to make the best
of eggs? To use them so that they
do the most good" so that you get
the most for your money?
To begin with, it pays to buy good
eggs, for the percentage of eggs that
cannot be used diminishes as their
price increases. And a bad egg in
dozen raises the price most decidedly.
Moreover, sometimes other food is
spoiled by an egg that is carelessly
broken and turns out to be bad. 1t is
a safeguard always to break each egg
into a cup before adding it to other

Special. Correspondence Of The Star
NEW YORK. September 70. = They
say that Lewis invented the modern
position hat. but all the milliners
produced these shapes so quickly that
the observer was bewildered and credit
has gone .hfther and yon. What diff
ference does II make who thought Of
II hrst, as long as every one thought of
1t in time to make it the feature OF Ehe
early fall and revolutionize all mill

Probably 1t won't last until Christ
mas. AZ some Of its critics say. but our
women have gotten into the continent
tai habit of buying many hats and
rapidly discarding one shape for an
other. By Christmas the women who
take up the position now will be
ready for another, and totally diff
ferent shape. Consequently, 1t is wise
70 make the best Of this especial hat
while II lasts.
One thing is certain: 1t ushered in
the htgh-crowned hat. The milliners
had decided that something must be
done to compel women to buy new hats
and not depend on the. ones they had
to carry them through the autumn;
more likely. the origin was deeper than
that and did not concern the individual
at first; 1t was the idea of the Paris
miIliners that unless they showed
something strikingfy different in the
form Of hat. the American buyers
would neglect to buy more than few
shapes, trusting to the skill Of their
own workrooms to satisfy the Ameri-
can demand.
II French working women were to
reap material benefit from the visit of
the foreign buyers, the mi1liners had to
take In a large amount of money,
otherwise there would be more and
