DIVINE WORSHIP

The essential element in divine wor-
ship is the proper attitude of mind,
the sentiment, the emotion. Mind and
heart must be attuncd to worship. The
proper attitude Of mind is one of deep
earnestncss and reverence; and these
are generated by the solemnity of the
service.
What a hollow mocfiery it is to re-
cite prayers in n mechanical, perfume
tory manner, mere rattling off of
unintelligible words. amidst all kinds
Of confusion and disorder, under con-
ditions that disturb and distract the
minds of the wOrshipers instead of
edifying them, amused by many IA
cOmical, mirth-provoking act or Incl
dent, and to call all that divine wor-
ship. The old teachers and authori-
ties of the synagog have given us
many u stern admonition, and laid
.lown many wise rules and precepts
regarding the true character of wor-
ship.
The Reform synagog has succeeded
in making divine worship solemn and
cdifying. us well as instructive II is
chiefly this that makes the Reform
synagog so attractive to the modern.
Americanized jew and Jewess. In
fact, it may be said that Reform Ju-
daism had its origin in the desire and
effort to make the service of the syn
agog solemn and impressive in char
acter. and thus to produce the proper
attitude of the worshipers mind. All
its Innovations. the prayers in the
vernacular, its music, and its modern
/. led and refined ceremonial are meant
for that purpose. And the problem
that now confronts the orthodox jew,
III least the one who is Mt the same
time imbued with modern ideas and
sentiments, is how to give divine wor-
ship its true character of solemnity
and reverence. while yet retaining the
old customs, forms and manner

SOAP SUBSTITUTES FAVORED
Soapbark, Starch Water or Bran Wa
ter Are Not Likely to Injure
Delicate Coiors.

When the action of soap is likely to
injure a delicate color, use SOapbark,
starch water or bran water, advise
home economics specialists of the Uni
ted States Department of Agriculture.
Soapbark, although not soap, when
heated in water will form suds. To
prepare it for use, boil for 10 minutes
cup of the bark with l quart of
water; then cool and strain the liquid.
The "sOapy" water may be used full
strength for sponging, or diluted for
washing; half of this amount is
enough for One-half tubful of water.
Since the liquid is brownish, it should
be used only on dark-colored goods.
Starch water is especially good for
cleaning delicate cotton fabrics, This
Is usually made by adding thin starch
paste to the wash water Water in
which rice has been boiled, if it is
not discolored. may be used instead.
If it is not desirable to have the ma
terial starched slightly, 1t must be
rinSed in salt water.
Bran water, made in the same way
as soapbark solution, Is useful with
colors that are likely to fade. 1t does
not give suds, but cleans like starch
water.

INDIVIDUALS DIFFER
ON FOOD MATERIALS
Each Person Should Experiment
With Himself.
Food Specialists Say Too Much Is as
Bad as Too LittIe-EconomicaI to
Avoid Expensive Cuts of
Meats and Fruits.

AS the habits and conditions of indi-
yiduals differ, so, too, their needs for
nOurishment differ, and their food
should be adapted to their particular
requirements. Each person should
learn by experience what kinds of
food yield him nourishment with the
least discomfort, and should avoid
those which do not agree with him.
Too much food is as bad as too lit
tie. and occasions q waste of energy
and strength in the body as well as
waste of nutritive material, say
food specialists of the United States
Department of Agriculture. While in
the case of some foods as purchased,
notably meats, some waste is I'M
avoidable, the pecuniary loss can be
diminished, both by buying those kinds
in which there is the least waste, and
ordinarily done portions of what is
usually classed as refuse. Much of
the waste may be avoided by careful
planning so as to provide comfort
able and appetizing meal in sufficient
amount, but without excess.
II strict economy is necessary, the
dearest cuts of meat and the more ex-
penSive fruits and vegetables should
be avoided. With reasonable care in
cooking and serving a pleasing and
varied diet can be furnished at mod
crate cost 1t should not be forgotten
that the real cheapneSs or dearness
of a food material depends not only
on its market price, but also on the
cost of its digestible nutrients. II
should always be remembered that
"the ideal diet is that combination of
foods which. while imposing the least
burden on the body, supplies it with
exactly sufficient material TO meet its
wants" and that any disregard of such
a standard must inevitably prevent
the best development of our powers.

chicken. The best products were OBJ
tanned from plump, well-fed hens In
tests recently made by the Expert
mental Kitchen of the United States
Department of Agriculture.
How the Canning Is Done.
To prepare the bird for canning, it
should be carefully picked and all pin
feathers removed lit should be then
singed and washed in water in which
a small amount of baking soda has
been dissolved. Remove the entrails,
cut the meat into pieces as for fry
ing, and carefully wash each piece In
cold water. The giblets and excess in
festival fat should not be put into the
jars. The chicken may be / Partially
cooked before being placed in the
jar, being either Drowned in fat or
stewed, but the best results have been
obtained when the uncooked chicken
was packed into the jars. The jars
may be filled with hot water or broth,
or the meat may be canned without
the addition of liquid. The best prod
uct has resulted when no liquid or
only small quantity (about table
spoons to a pint jar) was added. The
meat In jars to which no liquid was
added has kept as well as that in jars
filled with liquid, and has possessed
superior flavor. The following method
is, therefore, recommended by the
Experimental Kitchen.
Pack the pieces into pint jars. AS
much as pound of chicken can often
be packed into a pint jar. Two chick
ems weighing, before dressed, a little
over pounds each, when cut up for
canning will fill five pint jars. For
example, jar l may contain thigh,
leg. filet of breast, and saddle; jar z,
a neck, wing, leg, fillet of breast, and
two wish bones; jar 3, saddle, neck.
thigh, and fillet of breast; jar 4,
wing leg, thigh, and breast bone; jar
3, a fillet of breast, thigh, wings, and
a leg. When the meat has been pack
ed into the jar, add a half teaspoon
of salt to each, partially seal, and
process.
If a water-bath outfit is used for
the processing, set the jars on a rack
in the bottom of a wash boiler with
sufficient water to come inches
above their tops. Process pint jars
continuously for six hours after the
wafer begins to boil. Seal the jars
quickly upon removing from the boil"
er, or if glass-tOpped jars fastened
by a spring are used. force the spring
into position while the jars are still
immersed. After sealing invert the
jars to test for leaks while cooling.
Reduces Time of Process.
If a steam-pressure cooker is used
the length of time can be greatly re-
duced. Fifteen pounds pressure for
one hour has been found safe and
satisfactory period.
Chicken canned in either the water
bath or pressure cooker is a desirable
product, comparing very favOrably
with fresh chicken when used for
chicken salad creamed chicken, chick
en- stew, chicken pie, or for scallOped
Or baked dishes.
The chicken in pint jar is suffi-
cient to serve six persons when the
meat is prepared in any of the ways
mentioned.

LONDON BANK CLOSES DOORS
Institution With Capital of Million
Pounds Suspends Payments With
out Explanations.

London, Dec. 21.-Farrow's bank,
an institution doing business largely
with small depositors in the suburbs
of London, where it had numerous
branches, posted a notice that pay
ments had been suspended. The bank,
which had a capital Of f1,000,000 and
deposits unofficially estimated at pos
sibly from 100000 to f3.O00,O0O, gave
no immediate explanation for its step.
Suspension of payments, 1t is be-
lieved, will not have any effect other
than sentimental on the stock ex-
change. owing TO the comparative
smallness Of the bank.
