amount of fluid intake is ordinar- fly restricted by the physician.
 From the hygienic point of view the amount and nature of bacteria contained in the water are of great importance. Formerly ty- phoid fever was transmitted pri- marily by bad water supplies. Nowadays any civilized commit nifty controls the bacterial-con- taining water supply by the use of filtration and chlorination.
 Among the faddists there are also water fanatics that flood the body with fluids and in their places of employment wear path from the desk to the drinking fountain. Over-concentration on water is just as bad habit as over-concentration or anything else.
 So many cities and institutions now use liquid chlorine and call cium hypochlorite for disinfection of water supplies that the process would not seem to require any further defense before the public. Only a few institutions still use ozone and ultraviolet rays for this purpose.
 The actual facts of the matter are that there is not the slightest evidence to support the conterl- ton that the amount of chlorine in the water after the chlorina- ton process is sufficient to be of the slightest harm to anyone.

When you serve canned peas, do you save the liquid? We mean the peas packed in brine, of course not the new vacuum packed peas which contain practically no liquid. and so, do not present this problem. The reason we ask this question is because the Delinea- tor Institute asked 386 of its con- sultant housekeepers whether they poured off the liquid in serving ordinary canned peas, and 152 of them said "yes," and only 126 said mo-. and quite number of them said some of it." and a number of other things.
 This was quite surprising be- cause these are all wise and ex- perienced housekeepers, and they should have known that none of the liquid should be thrown away, but all of 1t should be saved and used. The consultant housekeeper who answered, "Yes, but I feel guilty about it" was right. The one who answered, "Yes, but I use it in soups, etc." also had the right idea.

USING FRUITS TO
 BEST ADVANTAGE
Combined With Gelatine Makes Salads and
 and Desserts
COLOR SCHEME OBVIOUS

Colorful foods can be the life of your dinner table, for they con- tribute charm, new flavor and ami mation to many plain and com monplace foods. Salads seem to offer the greatest opportunity for creating a variety of color schemes, and during these simmer months there are usually leftovers of one kind or another in the re- frigerator which lend themselves beautifully to colorful salads.
 Leftover fruits, when combined with clear, sparkling gelatin h one of the many fruit flavors, make delicious and appealing cocktails, salads and desserts. And the summer iceboX frequently holds a miscellany of berries, quar- ters or halves of cantaloupe, honey dew melon, or watermelon.
 Individual molds of watermelon salad in lemon gelatin, or canta- loupe salad in cool, green, lime gelatin can be relied upon to en- nance your summer bridge tables. You can use a single mold, or course. but. the individual molds are more striking.
 What can you do with the re- mains of honey dew melon? First of all, cut it into balls or cubes. Both the color and flavor of honey dew blend beautifully with any fruit-favored gelatin, but you will find the lime gelatin best for the tangy lime flavor. sharply accentuates the pleasingly swee; taste of the melon. Remember to use only ripe, firm sweet melons: The melon balls should be folded into the gelatin when it is slightly, thickened. Otherwise they will all appear on the bottom of the fn- ished salad.
 And if you have a portion or firm, sweet watermelon in the ice box, try cutting rounds of 1t wlth your cookie cutter, and then top

but so far as known is not harm full, unless taken in excessive quantities or at times when the person may be overloaded.
 Carbonated water, soda water, ginger ale and similar modifica- tions of ordinary water are pleas ant to take if one has a taste for them. They sometimes serve the purpose of adding alkali, which is of benefit in persons who have unusual acidity. Flavored waters are ordinarily harmless if prop erly prepared and if they do not contain so much sugar that they interfere with the appetite and the digestion.
 It should be remembered that tea, coffee, milk and soup are largely water and that most foods contain a considerable amount of fluid as well. In persons with dis ease conditions that tend to ac- cumulate water in the body, the

TWO DISH MEALS

A SAVING ON DISHES

There is no reason why economy meals and time-saving meals should leave the family not quite satisfied or their palates indiffer- ent. Two-dish meals can be as nourishing, as well as tempting, as any three and four course events if you follow these cleverly planned ideas of Mildred Weigley Wood, in McCall's for October:
 "Why shouldn't we often serve g. two-dish meal instead of three or four-course dinner? Provided we watch out for balanced food values, and cook interesting 1000 - plenty of it, mind one Of these siniplified dinners can be as exciting as a banquet.
 "There is no rule, of nutrition which says that three different vegetables are better for us than three portions of the same bege- table. This will explain why the following recipes call for larger quantities than are usually given. < For a long time we have used them in my own household ana have found them very satisfactory.

Opinions differ as to whether or not water should be taken at meals. It serves the purpose of diluting the mixture of food in the stomach. making the absorp- ton easier and facilitating the movement of the residue through the intestines. Water should not, however. be used to wash down Jumps of unchewed food that may remain in the mouth while eat ing.

Arrangements have been made to extend our operations as rapidly as possible after the complete re- suits of this initial installation are ascertained and analysed. There is no doubt regarding the efficiency of the MacRae process, but we wish to perfect it to the fullest extent before we go ahead on the scale it's importance warrants
 Every oil company will be en- titled to the use of the process on royalty basis, said MT. Ileweflyn, though several have sought exclusive rights.

A Victory Re Won.
(New York Herald Tribune )

(New York Herald Tribune)
 The Empress Eugenie, whose jaunty millinery begins to appear on the streets of New York with the sudden abundance of mode seized upon by the engines of production, won her first victory r the never ending battle of the toiettes at Com piegne in 1852. She arrayed for the hunt there in a fitting riding habit. with diamond clasped ostrich feather in her hat, spurs on her high heels and pearl-handed whip in her hand when Louis Napoleon paid her such marked atten- of scandal
 But the elegance of her habit, her expert horse manship her auburn hair, her animation and good nature pleased Napoleon III well that Eugenie was soon ordering a rousseau of about five dozen dresses among them velvet with blond lace flounces decked with bees and crowned eagles of gold according to the fashion editor of The Morn ing Post" of London.
 Thereafter, and until the eos, when she began to share honors with the Princess Metternich she was queen of a fashion which seems to be upon us again only eleven years after her death so rapidly are the periods creeping up on the present Ana so rapidly are the imitators closing in on the ar biters of fashion that, almost simultaneously with predictions of a return to her mode, the Empress Eugenies saucy bonnet shows bumper crop
 Dr. J. C. Flugel Assistant Professor of Psychol- ogy in the University of London predicts that this accaleration will be the death of fashion The pursuers are beginning to catch up with the pur- sued" he writes in the current number of Psyche, in an article on The Emotional Value of Dress.

KICKING EACH OTHERS DOGS.

Reciprocity used to be thought of as an exchange of favors In the tariff on coal between the United States and Canada is now sort of you kick my dog and I will kick your dog" proposition. The Canadian Government put a tariff of twenty-five cents ton on coal and now our Government slaps a twenty-five cents a ton the Canadian product,
 This means that American coal users in Eastern Canada will have to pay twenty-five cents ton on American coal and Western American users of Canadian coal will have to pay twenty-five cents on coal from British Columbia
 In this game Pacific Coast Americans will have slight advantage over Eastern Canadian coal users They not compelled to use Canadian coal for there is lot of American coal produced the Pacific Coast while the Eastern Canadians have little choice in the premises.

CHANGE M AY OCCUR IN
 OIL REFINING
Eastern Financier Claims Great Efficiency for
 New Method

Startling changes in the oil re- fining business as a result of the discovery of new cracking process are predicted by William H. Llew- ellyn, New York capitalist, who is making the round trip on the Princess Louise, in port yesterday. MT. Llewellyn is one of the or ganizers of the Radial Company of America, which holds the patents for the process, discovered and developed by Randolph MacRae, Canadian engineer.
 The new refining process is said to be of most revolutionary character. At present, declared MT Llewsllyn, only 35 per cent of the best grade of crude oil is turned into gasoline, and the heavier grades cannot be treated econ omically. The MacRae method re- covers practically all of the gaso- line content in the heaviest crude oil
 We are receiving the encourage ment and cooperation of many of the large oil companies, that have hundreds of wells lying capped and unutilized because they canno t treat the heavy oil,' declared MT. Llewellyn. Tn our process they see the recovery of millions of dollars in dormant wealth lying in the ground and the turning of

Financial.
(NeW York Times.)


 The stock market, it is pleasure to note, be- haved this week in it's usual intelligent and logical fashion. Prices sagged heavily on news that 1t was still raining the Lindberghs at Point Barrow, but staged sharp recovery when it became known that a ray of light from the star Arcturus would be used to set in motion the machinery at the Chicago Worlds Fair not later than June, 1883
 The Governments cotton estimate, forecastlng the ruin of eleven Southern States and probably the bankruptcy of the Federal Government, was the signal for one of the most active buying movements of recent months for average gain of s points Later in the week the note of buoyant optimism became still more marked and was explained in some quarters as due to the expectation of war with Japan over the imprisonment of Pangborn and Herndon for taking pictures over Japanese fortlfl- cations.
 The week closed with swift advance in the entire list following upon reported defrease III steel orders for plates and pipes. However, ralls and industries rallied sharply in the last few minutes of trading on news that Dadou of Paris launch ing new perfume entitled Mon Amour.

Spruce vs. Other Lumbers.
(Prince Rupert News.)

Once again hear that spruce is competitive product with other species of lumber. This time H. R. McMillan, of course, an interested party, tells us that it is. If Prince Rupert people cannot use spruce lumber in their building, 1t may be necessary to close down the local mill, he says
 Without reopening any argument as to the merits of spruce any other lumber 1t would seem to be highly advisable that, if spruce or any locally produced lumber be used at all in local build ing operations it should be used The closing down of the local sawm would make the local unem- ployment situation just that much worse and, if there is anything reasonable local citizens can do to prevent the mill being closed, they should cer- tainly act accordingly.

HELPING CHINA.

Upon receipt of a cable message from Finance Minister T. V. Soong, asking the continued CO., operation of China Famine Keller U s. A, Chair man David A. Brown to whom his Board of Di- rectors delegated authority during the present dis aster in the Yangtse Valley, replied with an out line of the representations being made to the Fed eral Farm Board at Washington and the Grain Stabilization Corporation at Chicago.
 John Earl Baker who is making an aeroplane survey of the extent of the disaster sends the fol- lowing cable:
 The Chinese Government has addressed official inquiry to the American Gov ernment and appreciates your assistance toward its favorable reception.
 The Grain Stabilization Corporation related it's offer of several weeks ago to sell the Chinese Gov ernment wheat to be paid for in two years. In responding to the corporation, Dr. Brown suggested the sale of all of the wheat the Chinese Govern ment will buy, to be paid for in ten twenty years with either interest with rate so low that it will constitute a record.
 Speaking from the office of China Famine Relief U. S. A.. Dr. Brown said
 I am sure the Federal Farm Board will take advantage of the humanitarian and economic opportunity that Chinas great dis aster affords, and that there will ba no quibbling about price or terms.
 China Famine Relief in U. s, A. may be impatient, but we can all remember the speed that has marked the disaster of disasters in other countries Ships might now well be on the way to Pacific Coast ports to begin loading the wheat.
 Public sentiment it comes to us in editorials and in letters is luminous in favoring the sending of part of our surplus wheat to China, and we can find no in- clination to wait while tie time Of payment or the price is being considered.
 Wheat State Senators apparently as one man in support of the plan to get a lot of wheat to China quickly. One of them suggests obtaining the advance approval of Congress if that is necessary.
