the Prussian government agreed that
there should be a plebiscit,l or popu-

A BOX TO SEND OVERSEAS.

Dear Social Cornerites: A box to send overseas was made out of a cocoa box weighing six pounds. The cover made by taking the box cover and mailing together, then putting hinges on the back about two inches from the end. They were long ones and there were three screw holes I could get the screws in, but how I was going to fasten 1t was a problem I padded the top of the cover a, little and then covered it all over with pretty house paper, lined the inside with white and green crepe paper, and around the top placed green crepe paper, and fixed the corner with 4u- tumn leaves. I put two screw eyes op- posite each other on the front, and in the center I tackled a piece of leather; and put hook to catch the leather in. I put 8 piece of string through the screw ayes and tied them. think that it will go nicely. It weighed six and one-half pounds when I had it all fixed to send.
 I made d red, white and blue rose, one of those large, soft roses, cut sev- eral thiclknesses of paper tone strip of each coIor), using three strips tc each flower; cut down two inches about one and ne-haff inches apar4 (curl the edges with knife of a sffarr pair of seissors). Draw the lower parts of the petals firmly together with wire, and finish with caiyx and leaves. For the leaves I cut rose leaves from the bushes in the garden and dipped them in paraxlin, and they keep fine.

CHOICE RECIPES,

Dear Social Corner Sisters: I have few recipes I think very nice Gone a mock mince pie) which I hope you
 will try, as we like it as well as real
 nince meat:
 Mock Minee Meat-Chop or grind a
 box of seeded raisins, three pints of
 apples after they are ground, one-half
 rind of lemon or one-f0urth rind of orange chopped, one heaped cup of su- gar, butter size of an egg or one-half cup shortening, three tablespoons of vinegar, one tablespoon of salt, one teaspoon cloves, cinnamon and nut meg, and spice it to suit your taste;
 use tea, coffee or water to thin. This
 makes four pies.
 Carrot MarmaIade-Two pounds of 1 carrots; after cleaned, boil in little water to prevent burning; four lemons 1 boiled whole until tender; save the water carrots are boiled in and after ] putting carrots and lemons through
 meat chopper, add the water in which 1 the carrots were boiled with four pounds of sugar, and boil all together
 until thick. Very nice to eat on bread I and butter
 1 Sponge Cake-Two eggs, one cup of sugar, one cup flour, one teaspoon of l baking powder, a pinch of salt, one | half cup milk to the boiling point; very nice.
 Am glad I could find time to write
 once more. Hope to meet you all

FoR rhE MEDICINE enesr.

Dear Social Corner Sisters: As there is so much sickness just at present, and more or less in winter it is a good plan to have a medicine chest in the house, so one will know where to put and find remedy needed. It may save much suffering and avoid calling in the doctor.
 In case of poison medicine, always put tack in center Of box cover, or a little toy bell tied to the neck of the bottle will be safeguard so no mis- take can De made in the dark.
 Keep the chest out of the reach of children.
 A few of the things to have on hand: Some adhesive plaster Or liquid plaster for cuts or wounds; iodine will answer for the same purpose; a small roll of absorbent cotton Tor washing and dressing wounds sterilized Dandage gauge; some court plaster; extract of witch hazel for a soothing and heal ing application; boric acid for eye- wash; spirits Of camphor for headache and cold in the head (apply to tenn ples and forehead).
 Mustard for making plasters. Heeipe-One tablespoon of mustard, one of lard, three of flour, water to mix.
 Ground flax seed is also good for poultices for cold on chest or lungs; put 8 cup in pan, pour over boiling water and cook until it thi5kens; re- new every three hours; whole flax seed boiled to thick mucila ge, strain through cloth, add one-half pound of rock candy, juice of lemon, cook all to 1 gether and give Warm-may be drank | freely
 Be sure to have a bottle of peroxide of hydrogen (is better than the ! liquid), handy for many kinds of sores. l Spirits of nitre is good for colds and l levers; tincture Of arnica is good for 1 sprains and bruises applied hot: Elixir 1 Pro for sour stomach, headache and | dizziness; milk of masnesia is also | good for the same purposes (better for l children); soda hints and charcoal l tablets for indigestion and dyspepsia; potash tablets are good for sore throat allowing one to melt in the mouth every hour or so
 Glycerine in small doses is good for the stomach and for cough; citric acid 1 can be used when no lemon can be got; it is good for a high fever-use one fourth teaspoon to cup of boiling water.
 l For the relief of constipation use compound cathartic pills or Cascara l tablets.
 1 For those who do not care to take medicine internally, glycerine stippos itoTies may be used Listerine is a good antiseptic and mouth wash Quinine pills for tonic and strength builder; asafoetida tablet where a nerve tonic is needed; Alkhol or Pine oleum makes a good nose and throat spray. Last, but not least, is the good old ginger powdcr for a warm drink also essence of peppermint or winter green for collie or gas in stomach.
 Hope these aids will help the Sis ters: they are all home tried and true An eye cup and a medicine glass is also a handy thing for the chest to have.
 1 Wishing you ali a joyous Thanks

DROP BISCUITS.

Dear Social Corner Sisters: When in doubt how to do a thing, or wishing for some new way, turn to the So- cial Corner page. A few days ago was given 2 citron and when asked how l should do it up, replied. T did not know, but I could easily find out as soon as I could get sugar"
 Today, however. have searched the Social Corner pages of the past four years in vain and now app4al to some of the good Sisters to help me out.
 l wish our new Sister Vira could have been with me for I saw so many recipee for gooseberries. If no one responds to her inquiry, I shall be glad to send them to her. Probably not ai1 have saved The Corner pages as I have.
 The following recipe is for a drop biscuit that is very nice with honey or syrup.
 Drop Biscuit: One cup rye flour, one cup rice flour, one half teasoon salt, two teaspoons baking powder sifted together. Wet with milk and water until it will stir just comfort ably. Then drop hy spoonfuls on a hot, greased griddle and set in the oven for twelve or fifteen minutes to brown. No shortening is needed, as the rice flour is short and cru1nbIy. PRIMRoSE
