You do not waste anything that can be used. You save it, care for it, preserve 1t. Children should early be taught the savings bank habit. Such children will grow up-at least most of them will-able courageous, helpful and willing. ."-New York Ameri- can.

Needs An Invalid's Tricycle.

'I have noticed the noble work done by the Corner. and thought I would make a request for assistance. l am a man 65 years of age and was totally paralyzed on the whole right side eight years ago. I consulted doctors as well as fakers all over the United States to obtain a cure, but only got rid of what money had saved without getting any relief. I have not given up hope yet for with the use of rolling chair, exercising my arm, L have almost recovered the use of my limb. If I could obtain an invalld's tricycle. to exercise my leg I might also recover the use of it. I will gladly give my rolling chair to some other unfortunate whom it would help if I could obtain dis carded tricycle.. CHARLES w. R."
 An equitable, business like suggestion!
 Whether not the owner of a disused tricycle. would care to have a wheeled chair the case remains unaltered. Here is a man who would recover the use of a leg by the means which have given him back the strength of a paralyzed arm If there be tricycle. which may be spared to him as a gift or a loan we shall be notified of the glad news before long.

 been supplied. I have now large ex- press package from Mrs. V. and another | small parcel-a heavily embroidered | white dress. The girl is in the country, and I wrote, asking If I should forward them or await her return. I am giving my blind friend two evenings per week

 most lonely after to g p. m. We sure 1 have a feast of reason and flow of soul" We swap army "reminiscences; he
 spins one yarn and cap it with another or l read aloud to him. My chosen field
 of labor is expanding. I prayed that it
 might but-no more clothing until next snowfall. I am blushing yet at the pub licity I have fallen heir to. Well, fel- low on the firing line cannot escape it altogether. The otophone from Miss c. is still on my hands. Of course, I am looking for the one who needs it.

OK Tongue With Spinach


 May I contribute to the Corner a recipe from a cook book just published for the benefit of the sufferers in Bel gium? It is a French recipe, and, hav- ing tried it in my own household with distinguished success, I cannot resist the disposition to let others do tho same. Youmay like to make place for this formula among those you have re- gently printed for preparing spinach for American tables. The tongue in this recipe must be fresh-not salted or smoked: OK tongue with spinach-Boil the tongue whole with this poured over outer skin will peel off. Take this off, then put the tongue back into the liquor to simmer while you prepare the rest of the dish. Take piece of butter tho size of an egg, melt 1t and mix with 1t two dessert spoons of ground rice, add some of the liquor, pepper and salt and stir well, so that 1t makes good cream; drop in the yolks of two eggs, always stirring, and a little lemon juice. Serve the tongue whole with this porued over 1t and spinach done in the following way: Wash the spinch in running water till every bit of grit has gone. Put wa ter on to boil and salt it well. Throw in the spinach which you have freed from midrib and stalk. The fire must be brisk and the water boiling. When the 1 spinach is tender pass it through the sieve, put a bit of butter into a sauce pan, then the spinach, and heat for | six minutes, adding a little pepper. Serve with the tongue.
