HEALTHY SUMMER DRINK.

Dear Cornerites: There is nothing healthier to drink any time of the yeah than buttermilk. It is most refresh ing, il tones up the digestion. makes the stomach sweet, and for the com fort of those who are overWeight-it won't make you fat.
 ButtermillI has about the same calOric value as skimmilk. about 50 calOries for an ordinary sized tumbler. Its mild acid helps counteract the acids apt 10 form in the stoma oh. It c9n be taken by people who cannot digest milk.
 Of course. if you want to get stout. buttermilk will not help you. In fact, I'd recommend it as reduction diet. the same a. skimmilk. Buttermilk is so ca lories. whole milk 160. and milk with cream added is approximately rich according to the amount of cream added-cream being valued at about 50 calories per tablespoon.
 Buttermilk is valuabl as an exter- nal remedy. too. Ii makes the skin very soft in texture: it does quite a bit to relieve sunburn. and really has an effect upon summer freckies-not always. but in many cases. The skin needs soothing lotions in summer when the hot sun is a pk to be drying: vet a cold cream is often too greasy to use. Nilk or buttermi1k is ideal. It can be rubbed in and left on as long as desired.

THE LAW OF GOD.

There is no law but the law of, God. No power but the power of good; NEo bending beneath the Almighty rod No begging for daily food For God. in his tender. loving care, Knows not of sin or pain. And Sendeth us not afhiction sore, To bring us to him again Our God is the Father Mother-Love, Whose law is controlling all; Who knoweth our need before We ask Who answers our earnest CalE He Eiveth Us of his perfect store, If we on his power rely. Our health and our strength our daily
 bread.
 This bountiful all-supply- So let Us all know our Father. God, Is the source of love and power, His law of Good will supply our need Ehate'er be the day or hour There's never a care his love canr0t
 help
 No sorrow he cannot heal. No sickness or sin but his loving
 thought
 Can destroy. and himself reveal

WORK IN THE KITCHEN.

Dear Social Corner Friends These are ways for making work easier:
 A glass jar lid is a handy kettle or pan scraper. It is omething most people have at hand
 An easy way to clean greasy dishes md saucepans is to wipe out the dishes or saucepans- with a piece of soft paper before washing them. The saucepans should be placed on the fire for a minute or two before being wiped out.
 Every kitchen should have a plenti 'ful supply of hooks md pegs on which An ingenious device is to nail 8 plain flat board to the door or wall and fit to it. by means of brass headed nails. empty cotton Spools- This is an ex- celient idea for hat hangers.
 If brooms are to sweep clean they should be washed occa sionallX. Try this way: To two quarts of warm wa ter add four teaspoons of household ammonia Let the brooms stand in this for half an hour, then rinse thor oughly in cold water. and. if possible, hang in the sun to dry
 Keep lump of kitchen salt in the sink. It will dissolve slowly and keep the pipe clean and the sink fresh and wholesome.
 Lime water will sweeten jars and jugs which soap and water fail to cleanse. It is admirable for cleansing milk vessels and nursing bottles.
 Use an old broom, cover with piece of blanket something soft Sweep your kitchen floor with it. Will save your floor so often s blanket all dust and lint.

To be sure, it is more ideal to pay spot cash" than to, run bills; but milk bills. electric light or gas bills. are unavoidable, and these should be filed away after being receipted The up-to-date housewife keeps such a file as this either in her desk drawer or on the lower shelf of her desk or. at least. near the desk. where it may be reached for at a minutes notice for the purpose of filing away another bill.
 For accessibility is a most inn portant considers tion in the arrange ment of a housekeeping business sys- tenn. The housekeepeF's life is busy one and she must have every thing to her hand so that she may not be tempted when in a hurry to let things pile up on her desk in stead of putting them in their right ful place.
 The woman who runs her house on a business basis finds not only more interest in her work. but more satisfaction.

HUS BANDS.

Dear Editor Social Corner: There are q great variety of husbands in the world. but perhaps this inquiry Of an answer to "A Young Wife" in an ex- change discloses one of the most eel centric:
 | have only one complaint to make of my husband, and that is his con- stant criticism of my taste in hats Of which I wear styles to please him that would let severely alone were I buy ing to suit myself. TO satisfy him I am now wearing hat that has no hrim at the sides to speak of and that makes me look snoopy" and I hate tho very sight of it. Do you think it would he a good plan to buy one that he likes ana another to year when I go downtown alone? I have never been thrown much with men and I wonder if all husbands are like mine In this respect
 YOUNG WIFE.
 No. all husbands are not like yours There are good many who do not know the difference between the latest ''confection" and peach basket. The best of husbands are not always to be found in this group. for they are like " to wonder why the duece a woman having good bonnet cannot wear 1t until il is worn out"
 If you have the money to spare I think that the hat for yourself and one for him plan is feasible. That must have been the scheme adopt ed by Mrs Pepys with regard to a wig in the days when wigs were fash ionable for old and young alike Tn his diary of May II. 1867. Pepys writes:

After that Creed and I went into the park and walked. a most pleasant evening, and so took coach and took m ywffe and in my way home discovered my trouble to my wife for her white locks swearing several times. which I pray God forgive me for and bending my fist that I would not endure it.

Dear Social Cornerites: These sug- gestions may be found of use:
 To keep the juice of deep pies from esca ping turn a cup upside down in the center. piling the fruit around it.
 A brcem can be made to last longer by dipping the straw into boiling wa ter at least once a week.
 When making tomato or asparagus soup a few grains of baking soda should be added to the cooked vegeta- bles.
 # you like delicate arorna in the linen. saturate piece Of cotton or plotting pa per with oil of lavender and place it between the various articles.
 To restore white clothes that have become yellow, wash as usual. then soak over night in water to which cream of tartar, one teaspoon to a quart, has been added.
 Clean bottle that has had sour milk in it by filling with clear warm water. Crushing a coal cirider small enough to go through the neck, put ting this into the bottle and shaking we'll It will leave the bottle clear and bright looking and remove any tra ce of sourness.
 Use any left lover fruit juices from canned fruits A combination is often good. Thickcn with corn starch and cook until clear. Strained apricots cooked in this way and favored with sauce.

LIVERY. Dear Social Corner Friends It has ] been many moons since I have writ ten for the Social Corner, not because I have lost interest in the department, for I have read every letter printed.

AS the cars are now running once more perhaps Primrose will give the date of her picnic in the near future. September is here and the summer has gone.

 the eyes of youth to view. And the children needing counsel,
