Reading Time Not Wasted
It was simply the old story', the little
j woman loo busy all day to find a mo-
', ment to get out into the bright sunshine, or to have a quiet and refreshing
chat with some friend, and by bedtime
: she was so cross and irritable that even
! the children remarked it. She acknowledges that she is impatient, but does
not know why. If you are wise enough
to see tell her thut it is because she
has been tied in the house all day, and
has had nothing to refresh her mind.
She admits that you are right, but adds,
| "How am I to get time to go out, I
can't go out on the street without be-
. ing dressed for it, neither can 1 go to
call on a friend. I could spare time
', to go out for a few minutes, but I can-
! not find time to dress myself and go
i out too, so I must simply stay in."
Oh, you illogical little woman If
you were afriad to venture out of doors
I for fear Mrs. Grundy would remark
that you hair was untidy, why not give
I what spare lime you did have to the
, friend who was shut up right in your
! own home. Who was it? Well, 1 am
j pretty sure you had a good book somewhere in the house.
"Oh, mercy " she says. "I couldn't
waste my lime reading."
Listen, my dear, you would not have
been wasting your time. If you had
taken that hour you spent looking aimlessly out of the window thinking miserable things, and wondering if Johnnie
wus in some il it hole, or if the baby
was likely to grow up like his grandfather, and given it to some good book
you would have come back to the things
of everyday life with a happier and
more contented heart. If you couldn't
So out, then you owed it to yourself to
o the next best. While you are tending
you are not thinking about yourself and
your little troubles, and you will lind
an hour spent wilh a good book to be
quite as res.ful us an hour's chai with
some friend.
You may be one of those who do not
like to read. Thin cultivate it until it
becomes a habit, and you will look forward to your twenty minutes, or perhaps
your sixty minutes, with your friend
the book eveiy day.
Reading does not necessaiily mean
the neglecting of your home or work.
Find out what time you have co spare,
and use it profitably. You will not
only find your mind refreshed and rested,
you will be receiving a liberal education
that would otherwire be denied you.

The Clay Cure for Wrinkles
Covering the face with a certain clay
imported from Hungary is the latest
beauty fad. The clay, which has particular properties for tightening loifc
skin and sagging pores, is spread masklike over the fare at night and allowed
to stay on until morning. It is said
to give the complexion of a baby, but
the woman who uses it is certainly no

OUR DAILY RECIPES
Company Desserts
A delicious dessert is made by stiffening grape juice with gelatin and
folding the whites of eggs whipped to
a stiff froth through it while it is thickening. Serve with whipped cream. All
easily made "company" desserts is prepared by splitting an angel cake length
wise and spreading it with a thick
covering of whipped cream and then
putting the layers together and decorating the top with candied fruit
arranged in some pretty design.
Children Cry for Them
Date gems are a favorite with the
children for breakfast or luncheon.
They should be served hoi. To make
them, make a batter with a cupful of
milk, the yolks of two eggs beaten
thoroughly, a cupful and a half of
llour and two tcaspoonfuls of baking
powder. When the batter is smooth
add a quarter of a pound of dates cut
line and the whites of the two eggs
beaten to a stiff froth. Bake in buttered gem tins in a quick oven. It will
take about thirty minutes.
SOME HOUSEHOLD HINTS
Figs and dates chopped with diced apples make a delicious combination for a
salad with mayonnaise. Serve on lettuce
leaves.
When serving poached eggs instead of
the usual slice of toast place the eggs on
rounds of bread cut thin and sauted in
butter.
The juice of stewed cranberries, with
addition of lemon and sugar to taste,
makes a delicious drink, diluted with cold
watel.
Bric-a-brac should be carefully dusted
before being washed in hot borax water
or soapsuds in which a little ammonia
has been dissloved.
THE SNOWDROP
(From a Legend. By Alison M. Stewart;
Thousands and thousands of years ago,
When the earth for the first time was
covered with snow,
And Adam and Eve were turned out ia
, the cold
To the bleak hillside, and the desolate
wold,
Poor Eva was weeping one dreary hour
For the sight denied of a single flower.
The good God in pity looked down on
her,
And sent an angel from heaven to the
bare
And leafless earth. The skies were grey,
And no birds sang on this cheerless day
"Comfort this woman," he said to him,
And away sped the messenger seraphim.
As the angel flew it was snowing soft,
White flakes from the gloomy sky aloft;
And he said to the woman, "Why weepest
thou?"
And she nnswercd. "I weep for the
leafless bough,"
"Weep not," said the angel, "thy God
hath heard.
Bui is not this lovely?" he said with a
smile
Like a sunbeam seen in a dark church
aide,
And catching a flake of snow in his hand
He gl. need o'er the bare and desolate
land.
The snow-flake budded and blossomed,
too,
To a pure white flowei. "ThiB is for you"
,*nd away he sped on his upward flight,
Till his silver wings were lost to sight,
Eve saw, where thc angel's feet had been,
A simple flower with a bunch of green,
And always now, in late winter's cold,
The snowdrops appear above the mould.

Reading Time Not Wasted
It was simply the old story-, the little
woman too busy all day to find a moment to get out into the bright sunshine, or to have a quiet and refreshing
chat wiih some friend, and by bedtime
she was so cross and irritable that even
lhe children remarked it. She acknowledges that she is impatient, but does
not know why. If you are wise enough
to see tell her thai it is became she
has been tied in the house all day, and
has had nothing to refresh her mind.
She admits that you are right, but adtls,
"How am I to get time to go out, I
can't go out on the street without being dressed for it, neither can I go to
call on a friend. I could spare time
to go out for a few minutes, hut I ran-
not find time to dress myself and go
out too, so I must simply stay in."
Oh, you illogical little woman If
you were ufriad to venture out of doors
for fear Mrs. Grundy would remark
that you hair was untidy, why not give
what spare time you did have to the
friend who was shut up right in your
own home. Who was it? Well, I am
pretty sure you had a good book somewhere in the house.
"Oh, mercy " she says. "I couldn't
waste my lime reading."
Listen, my dear, you would not have
been wasting your time. If you had
taken that hour you spent looking aimlessly out of the window thinking miserable things, and wondering if Johnnie
was in some d?ep hole, or if the baby
was likely to grow up like his grandfather, and given it to some good book
you would have come back to the things
of everyday life with a happier and
more contented heart. If you couldn't
go out, then you owed it to yourself to
do the next best. While you are leading
you are not thinking about yourself and
your little troubles, and you will find
an hour spent wilh a good book to be
quite us restful us un hour's chat wilh
some friend.
You may be one of those who do not
like to read. Then cultivate it until it
becomes a habit, and you will look forward to your twenty minutes, or perhaps
your sixty minutes, with your friend
the hook eveiy day.
Reading does not necessatily mean
the neglecting of your home or work.
Kind out what lime you have to spare,
and use it profitably. You will not
only find your mind refreshed and rested,
you will be receiving a liberal education
that would Otherwise be denied you.
When we cunnol have the refreshing
contact with other people, let us try
the hook, and see if we ennnot enjoy ils
silent company.
The Clay Cure for Wrinkles
Covering the face with a certain clay
imported from Hungary is thc latest
beauty fud. The clay, whieh has particular properties for tightening loose
skin and sagging pores, is spread mask-
like over the face at night and allowed
to stay on until morning. It is said
to give the complexion of a baby, but
the woman who uses it is certainly no
beauty during the process as she lies
in her Louis XV. bed with her face
looking like a swollen murshmallow
Anything in the world to be beautiful.
Famous Woman as Vegetarians
The Countess of Warwick is one of
the latest converts to a vegetarian
diet. One is inclined to believe that
her ladyship has renounced flesh food
in order to preserve the superb lines
of her figure. Lt.dy Warvhk was gel-
ting very stout before s' e i.d. pted t.
vegetarian diet. Since then her surplus

OUR DAILY RECIPES
Company Desserts
A delicious dessert is made by stiffening grape juice with gelatin and
folding the whites of eggs whipped to
a stiH froth through it while it is thickening. Serve with whipped cream. All
easily made "company" desserts is prepared by splitting an angel cake length
wise and spreading it with a thick
covering of whipped cream and then
putting the layers together and decorating the top with candied fruit
arranged in some pretty design.
Children Cry for Them
Date gems are a favorite with the
children for breakfast or luncheon.
They should be served hot. To make
them, make a batter with a cupful of
milk, the yolks of two eggs beaten
thoroughly, a cupful and a half of
Hour and two teaspoonfuls of baking
powder. When the hatter is smooth
add a quarter of a pound of dates cut
fine and the whites of thc two eggs
beaten to a stiff froth. Bake in buttered gem tins in a quick oven. It will
take about thitty minutes.
SOME HOUSEHOLD HINTS
Figs and dates chopped with diced apples make a delicious combination for a
salad with mayonnaise. Serve on lettuce
leaves.
When serving poached eggs instead of
the usual slice of toast place the eggs on
rounds of bread eul thin and sauted in
butter.
The juice of stewed cranberries, with
addition of lemon and sugar to taste,
makes a delicious drink, diluted with cold
water.
Bric-a-brac should be carefully dusted
before being washed in hot borax water
or soapsuds in which a little ammonia
has been dissloved.
THE SNOWDROP
(From B Legend. By Alison M. Stewart)
Thousands and thousands of years ago,
When the earth for the first time was
covered with snow,
And Adam and Eve were turned out ia
, the cold
To the bleak hillside, and the desolate
wold,
Poor Eva was weeping one dreary hour
For the sight denied of u single flower.
The good God in pity looked down on
her,
And sent an angel from heaven to the
bare
And leafless earth. The skies were grey,
And no birds Bang on this cheerless day
"Comfort this woman," he snid to him,
And away sped the messenger seraphim.
As the angel flew it wus snowing soft,
White dukes from the gloomy sky aloft;
And he said to the woman, "Why wcepest
thou?"
And Bhe answered. "I weep for the
leafless bough,"
"Weep not," said the angel, "thy God
hath heard.
But is not this lovely?" he said with a
smile
Like a sunbeam seen in a dark church
aisle,
And catching a flake of snow in his hand
He gl..need o'er the bare and desolate
land.
The snowflake budded and blossomed,
too,
To a pure white flowei. "This is for you"
A nd away he sped on his upward flight,
Till his silver wings were lost to sight,
Eve saw, where the angel's feet had been,
A simple flower with a bunch of green,
And always now, in late winter's cold,
The snowdrops appear above the mould.

Why Not Arbitrate the Matter
Just a little over two weeks ago���on the day that Mayor Manson returned
to the ciiy���the Optimist made the suggestion that the city council, the contractors,
and thc Prince Rupert Industrial Association, should select three representatives
each, and settle their dispute by arbitration.
It was the first word of peace to tbe uttered in the whole controversy, and
it was fitting that it should come from a quarter that was in no way connected
with any of the parties to the dispute.
Since then the Mayor has become a convert to the idea of arbitration, and
today the contractors have submitted a proposition which���without prejudice
to its merits or demerits shows that the contractors have become converts to
the arbitration principle also.
The only remaining difficulty is with the Prince Rupert Industrial Association,
which has a clause in its constitution to the effect thai any labor disputes it enters
into must be fought to a finish, and lhat arbitration must not be resorted to. This
has caused a deadlock in the negotiation .
As one that had no pan. or lot in the proceedings which brought about the
strike, and as thc source from which lhe proposal to arbitrate emanated, the
Optimist urges the men of Prince Rupert Industrial Association to reconsider their
constitution.
No modern constitution is framed like those laws of the Mcdes and Persians,
that could not be altered. Provision is always made for change to altered conditions, or for the improvement which experience suggests. A Specified majority
is usually named [or constitutional amendments.
If their constitution stands in the way of a settlement, the members of the
Prince Rupert Industrial Association, without any reflection on their valor or
wisdom, might well consider the question of altering their constitution to meet
the situation.
Arbitration if the modern method of dealing with disputes. International
arbitration courts are appealed to by the advanced nations. The principle of
arbitration is finding favor among progressive labor leaders. It has been endorsed
by leading labor organisations, as the better way of making progress. Some of
the trades, us the international Typographical I'nion, for instance, maintain a
permanent board of arbitration, ln considering the amending of their constitution,
the Prince Rupert Industrial Association would but be considering the bringing
of their constitution into line with other progressive organisation .
The strike needless from the outset -has alteady caused considerable loss
to the workmen, and regret to the citizen . A searching and sympathetic inquiry
in labor and wage conditions two months ago would have brought almut a basis
of agreement before any talk of strike arose. Such an inquiry mu.st take place
before any lasting basis of agreement is arrived at.
Why not take a short-cut to the end of the dispute by starting work again
antl leaving the final question of the wage scale to be settled by a board of arbitration, iheir finding lo be retroactive, so that in the event of un increase being
grant ed, the men would benefit from the moment they resumed work.
That would be the easiest, the quickest, und the most lasting way of ending
the dispute.

DOMESTIC DISPEACE AGAIN
Stanly Baldwin Folia Foul of Would-
be Matter Mender
Stanley Baldwin the young husband
who waa in trouble on a former occasion,
and had to K<> to the hospital burned with
curbolic acid, appeared before Magistrate Carss yesterday charged wiCC
assaulting Q. W. Rumble. Kvitlence
In the case brought out tbe symptom.-,
of domestic trouble, interference on the
part of others who perhaps had thought
to mend matters, and resentment on
the part of the husband.
Baldwin is living apart from his wife
who is working as a housekeeper. He
was lined $5 and costs. L. Patmora
who detended, remarked lhat he wished
the law of Canada was as complete as
the law of the I'nitetl Stales in regard
to means of getting redress against those
who interfered with domestic affairs of
others.
GAMBLING CHARGE DISMISSED
Magiatratc Will Strictly Enforce the
Law
Magistrate Carss. has dismissed the
charge of conducting a common gambling
house against Charles Ingram of the
Owl Cigar Store. The store was leased
to Ingram by S. Qowans, and the Magistrate remarked that if he thought the
renting of any place by one man to
another was a dodge to evade the law
against gambling he woultl smart y
enforce that law as far as it would
possibly go. He atlded that the law on
gambling was rather vague on certain
points, but thai he intended to be very
clear OB those that applied to the
existing conditions in Prince Rupert.
He was satisfied that in Ibis case there
had been no breach of the law.

Licensing Commissioners will sit again.
Their meeting yeaterday afternoon did
not result in any decisive action in
regard to any of the application! for
bottle licenses, etc., or in reference to
A. J. Prudhomme'a case.
Another Objection Found
Against Mr. Prudhomme's applications for renewal or a new license is
now urged the/consideration that the
Savoy Hotel is within the regulation
300-ft. limit from a plate of worship,
the Baptist Church. The clause in the
by-law expressly specifies ":1U0 feet by

The dates were the lirst and eighth
of January, two complaints for the
first and one for the eighth. The person
supplied with liquor was John Johnson
who hatl been employed by Chief
McCarvell to try and obtain evidence I
against the hotels. L. Patmore appeared
for O. Besner of the Knox Hotel.

After hearing the evidence the Commissioners decided to reserve their

Instantly a perfect explosion of laughter from Commissionere and on-lookert

Perhaps Alderman Kirkpatrick even
heard it from where he was attending
to some business outside after visiting
the City Hall during the session of the
Commission, and the interval. But
Alderman Hilditch sitting quiet in his
corner with his face in tho shadow, never
even twinkled an eye.

Constable Mansell gave evidence to

After disposing of these matters the

attention to the case of complaints

LAST YEAR
RIAL ESTATE OWNERS IN
Western Canada
MADK
$100,000,000
From the most accurate figures obtainable, over One Hundred Million
Dollars was made by real estate owners in growing cities and towns of
Western Canada last year. This vast
wealth was exclusive of improvements
antl represented actual increase in lantl
values alone.
Original records gathered by the
Winnipeg Free Press prove that in
eight western Canadian Cities the value of land alone ���not counting improvements���increased 562 per cent, for the
last five years���an annual increase of
112 per cent, for each city during the
last five years. These figures indicate
that investments in live, growing cities
in Western Canada are as safe and
sure as an investment can be, and that
100 per cent, profit each year is almost
a certainty.
THIS YEAR
You have an opportunity now to
participate in these immense profits by
lieing one of the original purchasers of
town lots in the Grand Trunk Pacific
addition to the fast growing Western
Canadian cities, otherwise known as
Grand Trunk Pacific Railway Division Points No. 22
WATROUS, MELVILLE, WA1NWRIOHT,
BIOOAB
The Grand Trunk Pacific offers in
these splendidly located, fast growing
Division Points and in the townsite of
Tolield an opportunity for the investor
to share in the large profits that are
sure to accrue as a result of the rapid
and substantial growth that character-
lies Grand Trunk Pacific Division
Points and well located cities and
towns in Western Canada.
The Grand Trunk Pacific does not offer tOWnsiteS or additions so located as
to make investments in them of questionable value. The object in selling
these lots at the low prices at which
they are offered is to encourage the upbuilding of these cities from which the
Grand Trunk Pacific will derive vastly
more benefit thin from the sale of lots.
Now is the time to buy. Choice lots
range from $1011 upwards on easy payments of 10 per cent, cash and io per
cent, a month. You make your purchase direct and secure title from the
Grand Trunk Pacific Railway Company.
Write for literature and make your
selection while the prices are extremely low and the possibilities unlimited.

DAILY MESSAGES FROM
"UNCLE JERRY"
Land Commissioner
Grand Trunk Pacific Railway Co.
Everything is proper in its way. A
girl once asked a newspaper editor
whether it was proper to walk with a
young man in the City Park after eleven o'clock. The answer was: "Yes,
if you keep on walking." So it is with
my messages. They are proper just as
long as I "deliver the goods.' And if I
could not carry out my promises I
would not think of making them. That
statement is self evident, for it is
truth. Today, for example, I have a
good bid for a lease of fifty feet on
Second Avenue and my people have the
money to talk business. It may be
they would consider business property
in another street. Have you something that will fit that?
Prince Rupert has a good chance of
getting a first class apartment house.
I am looking for the site now. It must
not be to far out nnd be well located.
Have you that aite?
One word as to values. I buy and
sell at the same valuation, save for my
legitimate profit or commission. If you
want to sell me piwpcrty today at prices good three years hence we cannot do
business. I shall buy property at today's prices and sell you property at
today's prices. I am a 'now' man.
Let me meet you and talk it over.
