there are plenty of servants to take
their turn in being responsible for
the days work, the situation is not
bad; but where there is but one pair
OF hands to perform all the work of
getting meals, it seems as If it were
wiser to have simpler meals or those
that can be reheated. 1t is of very
great Importance that the mother
should have rest and that the family
should have the privilege of self-denial
and helpfulness in thinking of an
others comfort. 1t is often the fault
of an overindulgent wife and moth
er that the Sunday feast days are so
common.
Roasts may be roasted on Saturday
and reheated on Sunday, and be just
as palatable. Salads and desserts
may be prepared and all ready to
serve
The salads are better not mixed
until the time of serving, but the ma
terials may be all ready the day be-
fore.
Soup is quickly prepared, and one
may use the canned soups If 1t is
wished to do away with the prepare
ton
For the Sunday night lunch the
man of the house in many families
thinks it great sport to prepare the
meal. 1t may be very coy, informal
one, toasting bread before the crate
fire, or on the electric toaster, using
a chatting dish, and everybody enjoys
the process of meal getting. This is
a good time to train the older boys
and girls to the responsibility, and
they will like it. Let them ask a
guest or two on the nights they are
to perform. after they are proficient
enough to insure a success. Hos
pitality is too little exercised in the
home in this day Of hotels and res
taurant dinners, and our young peo-
pie need the training. One who en-
tertains friends at the home table
gets much more than he gives in real
pleasure.

TRIED AND CONVICTED.

It is one of the most cheering signs
of the times that the cause of tenn
perance is steadily gaining champions
in the United States congress. This
from Representative Clyde Kelly of
Pennsylvania:
The American saloon has already
been tried and convicted in one-half
the territory of the United States,
and in the remaining territory where
it still waves the Stars and Stripes
&; it will soon be seeing the stars and
wearing the stripes. Facing the facts
and knowing the meaning of the strug-
gle, the liquor interests are forming
a battle line of gigantic strength. We
accept its mighty challenge, for We
know that with this giant wrong over
thrown many others which have
married and SCARED humanity for gen.
erations will go crashing down in one
great heap of wreck and rubbish. And
crediting that, we do not ask how
many the enemies are, we only ask
where the enemies are"

CHRISTMAS PUDDING SAFE.

There is no risk of dearth of
Christmas buildings this year. The
supply of raisins and sultanas is
equal to the average at this time of
the year, and the vessels are arriving
from the Mediterranean at almost
the same rate and the supplies in al
most the same quantities as in previ-
GUS years. If there is any advance in
prices it will be in currants, but this
will be very slight if it does occur.
Greece generally retains from 20 to
30 per cent of the crop for home use,
but this season SO per cent has been
retained.

euNFIRE DlsTuRRs THE FISH.

A strange thing has been noticed
in all the waters of Iceland.
Great shoals of fish have come swim
ming swiftly up the streams, leaping
out of the water as they sometimes
do on fine summer days. In places
where they never were noticed be-
fore there are now swarms of fish.
1t is thought that the vibration of
the sea bottom caused by the tremen-
dous cannonading disturbed the fish
and sent them into Hollands waters
to seek safety.

recognized village topper went to the

supposing joke was at hand. Fold

hands, the Dlear-eyed, bloated-faced.
ragged, unkempt man went to the bal
lot box and registered his wish. Then
they began to scoff and sheer at the
drunkard who had cast a temperance
vote. "A pretty temperance voter you
are" said one. Why, if there was
bottle of whisky yonder there at the
top of that liberty pole, and if you
could have the whisky by climbing
the pole at the risk of your life. you
know you'd climb" And then the
rdrunkard Strengthened himself up as
best he might and answered them.

painful emphasis: Know it! oh, yes.
