 After the next act was a song en- titled Somewhere in France is the Lily" A boy sang the verses and three girls besides myself sang the chorus. We were dressed as flowers.

A Kind Word.

One day man was driving a cart along the street. The horse was drawing a heavy load. and did not turn the way the man wished.
 The man was in bad temper, and cruelty beat. the horse. The horse reared and plunged, but he would not go the way his driver tried to make him.
 Another man, who was riding with the driver, went up to the horse and patted him on the neck, and called him kindly by his name.

Our Cann.

One bright sunny morning I and nine other friends decided to go in the woods during the afternoon to build a camp. We all agreed to this and went about preparing to go to the woods.
 At o'clock we all met together with the tools necessary to build a camp and started on our journey.
 After having walked for about three quarters of an hour, we arrived at the woods.
 Before entering we separated our- selves into three divisions and set off all in different directions to find a good place where we could build our

For Him.

In, 1s17-'1S sorrow has come to a good many homes. Tears and sorrow ing has come to many sweethearts, wives and mothers.
 My story is about a girl, whose sweetheart enlisted in the United States army, when the country first started to call for men. He was at camp for quite few months. He came on furloughs to see her, and each time he left to go back to camp, she would wish him the very best of luck and God-speed. At last he was sent across the seas to France. And is now over there fighting.
 Her prayer for him every night is for God to keep him safe, clean heart ed. soul bright and to carefully guard him, every day and night. God has protected him, and many others; and we all hope that he viii continue to do so; and that the wal will soon be over. and all the soldiers and sailors return home. HELEN M. BABBITT. Hanover.

VARIETY WITH EGGS.

Now hat spring has come, eggs
are again 10 be counted among the
less expensive forms of protein food.
Make the most Of them now, for
theT may be higher next winter.
Resides. as they are usually cooked
they form one Of the most easily di-
lested and easily assimilated of any
form in which we can have our pro-
tein food. They are an ideal meat
substitute for spring when we no
lonSer need so much fat in our diet.
One thirg that has "queered" eggs
with many persons is that the only
way they have ever eaten them is, as
they are often cooked i'm farm
households. boiled absolutely hard
or else fried with crisp. brown
edge that is obviously indigesuble.
il is really strange that the country
woman for SO long has confined her
org cookery 10 these two ways
that are really the worst ways in the
world that eggs can be cooked.
The hard boiled egg is extremely
trying to the digestion, but as every
trained nurse will tell you if il is
boiled long enough-say half an
hour or longer-it becomes quite
irocous. After fever YOU know one
OF the first things that the patient
is allowed 20 eat in the way Of solid
food is the yolk Of an egg that has
been cooked long enough 10 make it
easily digested So when you make
deviled eggs 10 use for garnishing
in salads or meat dishes be sure 70
boil them a half hour or longer
Then they are perfectly harmless.
Here are some Of the ways that
you car cook eggs 20 make them
attractive luncheon or dinner dish
es.
Break the eggs on a buttered lie
dish. bake in the oven till set and
springle grated cheese over them
end serve Immediately. or add good
tomato sauce 20 the eggs after they
have been set and return TO the oven
for "A minute before serving. If YOU
can make an omelet YOU car vary q
I'm many ways 10y varying the filling.
Among the mixtures that can be
poured into the 0melet before turn
