noon, when Little Fellow was tucked
up in big wing chair in the living
room, the cage was moved in there,
too. 1t was then mother noticed that
Little Fellows eyes seemed to blink,
and she realized it was because they
were SO steadily fixed on the bird cage
outlined against the strong light Of
the windows. The bird cage was hung
away from the window-and then the
bird stopped singing so constantly.
The entire family consulted and
tried different positions and schemes
for hanging the cage. But that night,
when Little Fellows father came
home, he brought a great high pack
age. which turned out to be a tall
pedestal, with a fixture on top for
holding the base of the cage.
So Little Fellows chair was turned
with it's back to the window, and
right in front of him. full in the sun
shine, was the pedestal with the bird
cage OH top. 1t could be moved any
where about the house or placed in
any position without having to have
a hook from which to hang the cage.
1t could be near the window and yet
In addition, the pedestal was beau

Toast Balls for Soup.

Cut four thin slices of bread and
dry them in the oven until they are
a golden brown. Roll them to a fine
powder. Mix in a saltspoon pinch
of mace, nutmeg and pepper, and stir
it into the toast crumbs. Melt one
tablespoonful of butter. stir it into
the crumbs and add two eggs not
beaten previously. Take care to mix
the eggs well in and to add salt.
Form the mixture into round balls

away for an hour until the surfaces
are dry. Then lay them with a
skinner In the soup tureen and pour

Week End Treatments.

The busy girl has so little time to
spend on beautifying herself that I'd
suggest a once-a-week treatment for
| her, to be given Saturday night or
Sunday, or any time during that
| break between one weeks work and
| another. A great deal can be ac-
complished by a thorough weekly
| beauty treatment.
| Assuming she is normally healthy
| and doesn't abuse her complexion by
overeating during the week, let her
| try the following schedule,
Once in three weeks shampoo
with liquid CASTLE soap, preceded by
an oil rub the night before if she
| has dandruff or dry hair. Once a
| week a thorough massage of the
to be done whether her hair is healthy
| or not
A thorough massage with cleansing
cream of face, neck, elbows and
hands, followed by hot and cold
water wash to remove the cream.
If there are wrinkles. massage with
wrinkle cream finished by an astring-
ent. / have an idea that every COM
i plexion. particularly that of the city
dweller, needs a little extra cleans
ing at least once a week, and cream
is more cleansing than soap and
water, though it is never a substitute
for II.
A good manicure, making the nails
just little too short, to allow for
growth during the week days Of

Don't Make q Pet of Anger.

Don't Make q Pet OF Anger.
Be We angry and sin not: let not the
sun go down upon your wrath
Epiphany, iv.26.
st. Paul here makes a wise conces-
sion to the infirmity of our human
tempers and gives Christian counsel
for controlling them.
BE ye angry" says he (quite posi-
lively, as If we could not help it)
land sin not; let not the sun go down
upon your wrath"
Even Of Christ IL is recorded that
once he looked on the Pharisees with
nager" because of their hardness OF
heart. Mark. iii.5.)
But afterward He died for them
as for all sinful men: and He prayed
that they might be forgiven, because
of their ignorance.
To be incapable of anger is to be
less than human.
To yield to it without cause is to
run in danger of the judgment.
To be fond of it and make a net of
it is to court trouble and sorrow.
When night falls let anger die.
Anger that breaks out is trouble
some.
Anger that sinks in is fatal
A we'll founded mistrust of treach-
erous persons we may keep. But God
save US from the poison of cher
ished grudge.
