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. When we cannot have the refreshing contact with other people, let us try the tm 'k. und see if we cannot enjoy its silent company. delicious combinations of salads for her.

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.

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 fat hie-' melted away. Mme. Sarah Bernhardt renounced flesh food for the reason thr.t she found a vegetarian diet wi.s ci nducive to a more youthful appearance. She now eats nothing but. uncooked foods. Vegetables are grated raw und made into delicious combinations of siduds for her. She eats raw peanuts and uncooked cereals and avoids wines and all other alcoholic beverages. Among other well known women vegetarians are the Czarina of Russia, Princess George of Greece, Cleo de Merode, Marie Corelli and Mme. Maeterlinck.

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.

March 24 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.

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 dates were the lirst and eighth of January, two complaints for the first and one for the eighth.

But Alderman Hilditch sitting quiet in his corner with his face in tho shadow, never even twinkled an eye.

To Check the Petitions Though Mr. Prudhomme pressed with-1 out Impatience, for a decision in rega Constable Mansell gave evidence to the effect that he had searched Johnson before he bought the liquor, and was certain he hatl none on him when he entered the Knox.

It was announced by the Commission that all applications dated before March Sth, 1911, are now to be considered null and void. Board Heard Chargea After disposing of these matters the Licensing Commissioners turned their attention to the case of complaints filed by ex-Chief McCarvell of thc City Police Force during his term of office, against the Knox Hotel. Acting-Chief l'hillipson in a lettei to the board stated the complaints are that on three different occasions When the bottle was produced as evidence Commissioner Merryfield asked if It had been sampled, 'lhe witness Johnson, said that ii had just been tasted at the police office immediately after purchase. "H'm," remarked Commissioner Merryfield examining the bottle closely. "Whoever did the tasting took a pretty long drink." The witness seized the bottle and regarded it critically.

Ask Uncle Jerry for price lists and full information. 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. Address 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. THEY WILL UNDOUBTEDLY MAKE 000,000 MORE $100,- Jeremiah H. Kugler, "Uncle Jerry," Agent for Grand Trunk Pacific Lots on Main Line.
