made for the big mass meetings to be

Tuesday, February 2, under the auspices
of the CITY Rescue Mission, which mas
been started few weeks ago at No. 3
North Fifth street. The work is be-
coming a factor for good results, and
under the direction of Il board of dl-
rectors is very satisfactory TO many
people who are interested in the estab-
fishing one more of the greatest mis-
sions of the fifty missions in the United
States. Services are held at the mission
every evening at 7.45 O'Clock under
the direction of various churches and

ITS nice to get up early in the
niornin', but it's nicer to lie in your
bed!" sings Harry Lauder, and when
mornings are frosty we all echo his
song. But much of the breakfast can
be made ready the night before and
the thoughtful housewife knows this
and has her own opinion of those house
keepers who complain about getting
breakfast.
1t is something of matter of habit
to measure the coffee, mix it with the
crumpled egg shell and put it in the
pot and place the pot near the water
kettle and then lay out the toaster and
the bread knife while you are putting
away the dinner things at night.
The matter of cooking the breakfast
cereals, too, il easily solved at this sea-
son when we all have fires over night,
or at least double boiler. All the
whole grains, like rice and barley and
whole wheat and oats, are better for
cooking several hours and in the morn
ing need only to be heated through.
But the fireless cooker is the real help
towards the needed hot breakfast.
In some homes it is not convenient
for all the family to breakfast at the
same hour; then the breakfast tray
proves help to the cook. 1t is filled
for each individual and served on the
breakfast table. Where the house.
mother is also the maid this is splen
did time saver.
Though breakfast is the most in
formal of any meal it is quite the i'm
portant one. After fasting over night
our bodies need food and of all oul
fads the "no breakfast" one is the most
harmful.

Getting Breakfast

Dieticians say the American break
fast is most sensible from every view
point. First comes the glass of cold
water on arising, then fruit, and the
beneficial action of fruit on the diges-
tion is well attested, this followed by
cereal and then the breakfast proper
is greatly in advance of the French
breakfast of rolls and coffee or the
heavy English one.
A reader sends the following sug.
gestion for an imitation freless cook
er: 81 have no fireless, so after cooking
my breakfast cereal until it is well
started, I wrap the utensil containing
it in soft, heavy paper and put it in n
