AESTHETIC REPAIRS MADE i ID FRANCES WOUNDED

HARVRE, Jan. 4-(Correspondence of the Associated Press)-The French Army Medical Corps have set apart three eminent surgeons, Professors Tuffer, Morestin, and Seblean, to make aesthetic repairs, and remove deformations from the faces of those wounded in the war.
 If a man losses his nose or any part of his face, or a disagreement is caused by wound, the face will be repaired by skin grating, and the lat est discoveries in surgical science will be used to remedy the deformity.
 Several cases have already been successfully undertaken by the three surgeons. A young corporal who had part of his face taken away by a shell was given a new nose, left jaw, and cheek. In cases where teeth have been lost, it is said that successful efforts have been made to transplant others, according to a method discov- cred by Russian dentist.

GOOD CHEER FROM Dor1IE.

Dear Sisters of The Social Corner:
On this lovely sunshiny day when
all seems to rejoice in Gods light and
love, you would not think tomor-
row might bring forth snow and sleet.
All nature seems to burst forth in
joy that all is light today, and says
never mind the storms of tomorrow.
1 have heard the crows cav, the
squirrels bark and chatter. the wood
pecker is steadily tapping, tapping.
on the trees after the worms and
grubs hidden there; even some of
my flowers that have not been touch
ed by the frost are holding up their
heads and nodding and saying, I'm
still alive!" And it made me feel
glad am alive and well.
Sisters know 1 am living, too, and can
give thanks for all things. Just as
we take things, so they be to us.
Some one might take our burdens
and say, We'll this is nothing COM
pared to what 1 have been having
All through life we should do all we
can to throw off care and sorrow, for
life on this side is too short to make
ourselves and every body around us
miserable. Scatter the sunshine with
good thoughts, good deeds, and send
forth all the love you can for every
thing.
How long do you think war would
last if every one on this earth would
think love. kindness and good to all
mankind. Not long, 1 think, for then
we all should be sitting on the rock
of love, and God would send His love
and sunshine to us all. 1 guess you

ed
Billy takes her examples from every
day life.
One of his customers discovered an
error in her BILL which meant five dol
lars in her own pocket. A clerk in
adding had mistaken another clerks
six (6) for cipher (0). There was
no way that the error could have been
discovered, as all back daily slips were
destroyed when a payment was made,
had not this customer been honest.
For it, the grocer credited her account
with one dollar. In this. case, did it
pay? Yes, and it would have paid
just the same from the standpoint of
conscience if the honest customer had
not received even a stick of candy.
Another case comes to mind: A Sun
day school class of girls were talking
about their new quarterlies. Each
scholar was supposed to pay five cents
for her quarterly and one of the
youngest in the group and newcomer
was emphasizing the fact that all
should remember to bring the money
the following Sabbath. The oldest girl
in the class, a very bright scholar, re-
Piled: ''Oh, don't worry bout the
money. Ny sister and 1 usually man
age to get out of paying for ours. You
can if you want to-" The pastors wife
had recently been assigned to teach
any weight with the sisters is unr
known, but on the following Sunday
when every girl turned in her quar-
terly money, the sisters paid for theirs
and no hint was given of trying to
get out of it.
If. as old Sol tells US, 'ft is dam
gerous to question in our thoughts our
own honesty" is it not equally dam
gerous to question the honesty of our
fellow-workers? Yet we are permit
ted to comment on certain little every
day defects of character which if all
lowed to run wild may leave deep
smirches on every young life.
Here again is brought out Ready's
helpful thought of making the little
everyday things of life count.
Can we afford to let getting out of
things and getting by retain such a
grip on US that when we meet old dis
honesty he can say, My, what a close
shave" In other words does it pay
to be just honest by the skin of our
teeth?
1t is good to have money and things
that money can buy.
But it's good, too, to check up once
in a while, and make sure you haven't
lost the things that money can't buy.
Is not honesty one of these things

NuT-Foop RECIPES.

Dear Editor and Social Corner Sis
ters: As this is the season for nuts,
1 will send in a few timely recipes.
When one has small quantities of
foods to be used up, a small jar of
ground nuts kept on hand will help
out many times. They may be used
at a moments notice. A few table
spoons mixed with a small cottage
cheese and tablespoon or two of
chopped olives makes a splendid salad
when made into balls and served with
plain French dressing, on lettuce leaves
or the plain cheese made into balls
and half a pecan or walnut meat
pressed into the top of each and then
place in nests of shredded lettuce.
The cheese lettuce and olives also
makes nice sandwiches.
Nuts and Pc+a+oes also make a nice
supper dish. Mash enough boiled po-
tatoes to make three cups; mix with
one cup of chopped nut meats 1 tea
spoon onion juice, salt and pepper to
taste, 2 ounces of butter; pile into
baking dish, brush with a beaten
egg, sprinkle with chopped parsley
and bake 10 minutes. Serve hot with
tomato or any savory sauce.
This potato mixture may be form
ed into balls, press into tops some
half -walnuts or potato may be baked
and scooped out and the shells re-
filed and sprinkIed with chopped nuts
and placed in the over for 10 minutes.

Editor Social Corner: 1 thought I
would write and tell The Corner fami-
ly what happened when The Courier

print. I noticed she was more excit-

do not fail to read The Social Cor
ner this week, just to see what a fool
a scrape he no business to have got
into"
I was nettled, but 1 said as natural
as 1 could. II will, Dabster" She
doesn't like to be called a silly
name and it tickled her SO the first
time called her Dabster that 1 have
kept it up with her fond approval ever
since. After 1 had pretended to read
the letter 1 said: 1T seems to me Joe
don't seem to be cut out for a masher
when he speaks up, anyway.
DO you take stock in that state
ment?' she asked, and / never saw
more fire in her eyes in my life than
flashed out then. IF you'd written a
letter like that 1 should be ashamed of
you. He hasn't no sense. His wife's
request to him was strictly private, If
she made such a request, and to es-
cape the furry he kicked up he gives
her away and makes a monkey Of him.
