Stevens, Editor. to No. 47: *, 1 1 A License Bddrd Mayor Taylor has~ written at letter, tp the License Board resigning his chairmanship and refusing to act in conjunction with them apy longer. He gives as his reasons���������"It is a purely political board." The board is constituted of two members elected by the city at large, the Mayor and two citizens appointed by the Government. From this it will be observed that the citizens elect three out of the five members from, the city Jat large. The two members appointed by.the Government are Messrs. Pike and Dr. Patterson, two gentlemen absolutely above reproach.- The only objection the Mayor dare make tp these gentelmen is that they are guilty of being of a different political stripe than he is. His Worship has repeatedly stated that he has no politics-^we^ assert ������that Reciprocity Feeling of Unrest Spreading���������Change in Fiscal Policy Not Favored. Now that the nation has had an opportunity to give careful consideration to the proposed reciprocal agreement, the public expression of opinion is becoming more and more hostile. The Monetary Times, Canada's leading financial journal, says: . > ��������� "The proposed agreement is one oi the most important ever placed before the Dominion House for discussion. In the national interests of Canada it should not be ratified.

The general revenue was all appropriated a week or two ago, so the only source to draw from for the remainder of the year is the balance of our borrowing power. This, borrowing power is based upon 20 per cent, of the average of the last (.two preceding year's assessment. Taking in our very latest assessment, which has just been revised, we can borrow, $17,- 914,080.79. Our present debtjs $16,074,171.21, leaving a balance of $1,839,909.58. This balance must provide for byjlaws now before the Council- fdr'over $1,900/00, and also for all the city's share in "all Iocf ' .provements which will be carried out this yeai' This will likely amount to approximately $1,000,000.00, or "in other words we now have in hand public works which will ..demand a million in excess of our borrowing powers.

That the Provinces could have continued much longer distinct was .mposible. With separate tariffs, no method of promoting intercourse between themselves, no means; of combining to make representations abroad on qeus- tions jointly affecting them, or to unite in the redemption of '.th e Northwest from savagery, a union of the Provinces had to come. The pity is, that it should have been accomplished at the time and with the object it immediately served. A Constitutional deadlock had arisen between Quebec and Ontario, caused by the clashing .of church and state. The remedy, the removal of all semblance of connection between the two, the politicians of the day would not face. Both parties agreed".���������!��������� *���������. ������,r!i?.:rver; new arrangement was made, they, would leave the institutions peculiar to Quebec alone. It was acordingly agreed to copy the American system, to substitute a federal for the existing legislative union. Ontario and Quebec were to separate, each to be autonomous and self-governing as regards local affairs7 with a federal house to deal with maters common' to them and the other provinces that had agred to join. There were no compunctions as to leaving the English speaking people of Quebec to the rule of the majority. Protests from the minority against tneir abandonment were treated as the expressions of bigots, somewhat the same as similar protests from the Protestant minority in Ireland regarding Home Rule are treated to-day. - It was represented on behalf of the Quebec majority iullie same way as Mr. Redmond is now talking on behalf of the Roman Gather lie Hierarchy in Ireland/that there was nothing to fear, that the Protestants would be the objects of their most considerate care. McGee scouted the idea that the Protestant minority would be in anyi way injured. He declared that they would be the pets of the njajority, the spoiled children of the new Dominion, that, they would be smothered with kindness. Others, whom such gush did not blind, thought that the minority could not suffer with a preponderating Protestant influence; in the Federal House,, while.there were those who looked on Confederation as a temporary stage, bound to end in a legislative union. The representatives of the minority gave little (Continued on page 4) just so much less >money with which to buy manufactured articles. Will a decrease in the purchasing power of the farmers benefit the factory workers in our towns and cities ? On the contrary, will it not injure'them by depriving them of a part of their most valuable market for their products? " -Will not this mean less goods handled by our railways and sold by our merchants? Any legislation that .diminishes the capacity of the farmer to buy manufactures hurts all other business inter-; "���������ests."���������N. J. Bachelder, Of the American National' Grange."'" ,. 7 Mr. C. W. L. Launspach, of London, England, says in a letter than." an inevitable result of the reciprocity agreement is therefore that Canada must not. in future expect as favorable borrowing terms in Great Britain as has been the case-these last few years... The attitude of the English investor will be that, if Canada looks to the United. States for Her trade, she must'.'also look to the, United States for her money." The Harvester Trust says: "Should the reciprocity agreement with Canada be consummated, additional plants will be constructed preparatory to increased demand for its machines. There is no question but that reciprocity with Canada would greatly enhance its agriciiltural position, and this fact,, together with harvesting machinery going into Canada free pf Charge, would result in earnings of the International Harvester Company showing a pronounced increase." ��������� LONGER HOURS FOB HOTEL BARS.

" successfully carry oot the scb������me until sucb' time as the district affected shall have become able to assume tbe ������ulLre8ponstbility. This is ot very great importance, as tbe'nnancial aspect of tbe Bcheme is tbe one wbicb will present tbe most difficulty. Tbe significance of this question eannot be overestimated, nor tbe urgency for immediate action. I would therefore beg to impress on tbe committee the grave necessity of facilitating tbe solution of this problem as far as we posBibly can." tion of tbe same; Oowing to the bitter opposition of the Mayor is was agreed to drop, for the present, clauses X*'P" and "E" and leave them for the joint conference to discuss. In considering this problem, which is undoubtedly the most significant that has ever been submitted to the city, there are ������ few things which should be carefully borne in mind���������first, that in regard to-rapidity and-permanence of expansion��������� "Vancouver holds a unique position among the cities of the continent; secondly, this growth has only begun as it were, and is destined to continue for many years; thirdly, that because of this rapid expansion the demands on the city's exchequer are very heavy, and consequently it is advisable to adjust tht financial obligations so as to jnake an equitable distribution of costs of improvements, in other wards, when a large and , permanent work is to be undertaken-it would be well to finance it independent of the city's ordinary improvements; fourthly, the question of sewerage is^of paramount importance and must be dealt with in a most broad-minded mariner, making provision for all time to come. This means that the system when inaugurated will be greatly in excess of the present requirements and hence will impose" a very heavy burden on the tax-payer at the commencement. Some people have the idea that all that is necessary is to say, that "large trunk sewers should be constructed," and, presto! it comes to pass. It is this utter lack of appreciation of the stupendous difficulties to be surmounted whieh causes' so niany citizens������������������ to 'unfa. 'ly.criticise..-the'tardy, pro-, gress of public works, and is also the reason why the civic authorities so frequently take a course which will give immediate results, even though they are only temporary. It requires both brains and courage to wait for permanent results in the face of a clamoring public. The present, situation in Greater Vancouver as regards sewerage is critical, in that the course adopted now will decide what will be the sanitary state of Vancouver in years to come. We have it in our power to lay the f mndations.upon wb'sh future generations may build with confidence, or we can follow a make-shif-t iicy which will mean that in five or ten years from now the work will have to be done over again at great expense and inconvenience. The first step necessary- in carrying out this scheme.is to make a complete topographical.survey, of .the'whole district and to tabulate the data, '.then to.make plans and profiles for submission to an expert sanitary engineer. ' This specialist should be a man of eminent ati- thority and ability, ar -1 very great care should be exercised in choosing him . Upon him ��������������� 11 fall the responsibility of recommending the best system to adopt, both regarding method of construction and of disposal. It-will also be necessary for the ~ The Monetary Times,'in a very pointed: editorial, states the case in behalf of the Public ^Farmers' .

There are well-defined suspicions that* some in high positions are balking justice. The sudden removal of Mr. Tra\ re to Kingston penitentiary was'effected rL a critical juncture. Perhaps incorrect/conclusions were arrived at by the public in consequence. Now we are told that the Farmers Bank cases which were anticipated to have come up before Judge Winchester at the March sessions will be traversed to the May assizes and heard by a superior court judge instead of a senior country judge in the sessions. This is unwelcome news. Delay is dangerous to the cause of fair play. If it is intended thus to soothe the public outcry, we fear a mistake is being made. The countrv intends to see the Farmers Bank scandal prpbed to the bottt-in. i. ^d those responsible made'to suffer the-proper penalties?'' ' \ ', f districts affected to agree upon some definite system for control. Aid. MacPherson suggested that we go n further than agreeing upon the general plans on paper, then each municipality carry out its system to that plan as they found it neces-' sary to construct. This was also favored by the Mayor. Tf -e is a vital weakness in this suggestion wh would result in the complete failure of the scheme, for instance, we will presume that the plans showed a trunk sewer running through that part of South Vancouver known as Cedar Cottage and the council of 'that Municipality decided to construct that part but that the city authorities were not ready; or neglected, or delayed the construct; i of that portion running through the city, immediately we would have a row on our hands, with the usual bickerings, procrastinations and disputes as to "rights, etc. Agairi\' presuming that the final outlet were in Point-Grey' and the city completed; the main trunk to itsY western.boundary, and Point Grey, not being able to use the sewer and not able to fin?.nee it, had not or would not complete the. system to its outlet we again see that, the.difficulty and possible controversy which" would result. We, therefore, believe that it is essential to the success of the''scheme that there be a definite arrangement for carrying out-its'construction in such a-way^as to meet-the requirements most expeditiously. As we pointed out previously this will entail great expense long before the whole'system-will be used to .'.anything like its'full capacity, and consequently it will be necessary to have some staple method of financing. The Provincial Government has offered to assist In this respect'and-it might be wise to get special powers granted to float debenture loans on the system and induce the Government to either advance the money or to guarantee the bonds until such time as the district is able to bear the whole burden equitably. Y . ,Y ��������� Another 'important feature is the fact that neither ihe..City nor-the.-Municipalities, are now empowered to enter into any such a joint scheme, therefore it is imperative that some special powers be granted. This must be secured from the Provincial Government, consequently we assert that it is a wise course to make the Government a party to the scheme so they may be in touch with every need and detail, and be in a position to expidite matters in the ways mentioned. :^ l������ '-'��������� ~"r THE WESTERN CALL ������������������"���������'������������������~ ���������anjgnw'^|wi * ( Ik m pf ti .*.** WATCH! ** WAIT! aa aa. aa ** ** -WWW' ���������:">->������: ^^���������������������������������������������������������������������������������^���������������������������������������������������������������������������������t* SPEGIAL=Hand Roll t ! * * THE FAMOUS HAIDA BRAND made fresh every day.

Tht Earl, who Is an attache to the viceregal household, left Montreal early op a Saturday and arrived at Rldeau.Hall the following Monday night, thus covering the one hundred and' ten odd miles in three days. A Yukon dot; driver in tbe pink ot condition would hardly do better. This is not altogether a record tor the peerage, however. When the Earl ot Lonsdale was in Canada flften yeats ago, he walked up the same route Earl Percy took as fur es Como. crossed the Ottawa river to Oka and continued across country to St. Eustache in one day.

Canada's larger cities have not yet solved the problems of transporting the1 great crowds which daily thron" fo the business centres in the morning, and disperse towards the outskirts each night.

The new girl had been but three weeks in the employ of an anistic family, but her time had evidently not been spent exclusively in studying the domestic arts.

Copfederalion and British North American Act (Continued from page 1) In every^ regard, outside of inter-pro- opposition. Party allegiance con-,j vincial relations, she was not to be held accountable. The power of the bishops soon grew so that the church was able to completely control the political life of the Province. One of the strained part of them to silence: others were bribed by promises or office. There were, protests from isolated bodies of electors, but they went unheeded. The one danger in the'judges of the province gave a decision eyes of many was the educational. Make our schools secure and we will go in for Confederation, was the cry of many. Sir A. T. Gait satisfied these people by getting a clause-inserted that their schools were to be continued as they were, and that should any complaint arise of invasion of this provision, appeal could 'be ,made to the Federal authorities. In the proposal of this clause, the Church of Rome saw her opportunity. If, said her representatives in th e conference, we concede this, we must have equal security for the schools of the minority in Ontario. The schools of the Quebec minority were Public Schools, the schools of the' Ontario minority 'were the schpols of a church, there was no parallel between them; yet the demand to place them on an equality was successful, and just because the English-speaking people of Quebec prayed for protection against the possibility of having their free,' open, riori- sectarian schools changed into confessional schools, ,the price of that protection was, that tbe people of Ontario should have fastened upon (hem for ajl.s time, as far as the British North America Act could do it/ the Separate Schools that, had been in the flpst placejmposed upon them by Quebec votes. They who speak of' the framera ��� of ttlxe-Confederation Act an statesmen, may take this as one instance of several,* of how their political idols were ��aade to kiss the Papal rod. * > .-���-,��.. In the discussion of the proposals for* Confederation^ one true voice was raised. Col, .Haultain, member ,for Peterboro, asked whether it was.jusi to ignore the.aversion of the Protestants teBldlng iii Quebec to Confederal tion,, because it would place thenx.ai the mercy of an intolerant hierarchy. A syllabus had just been issued By the Pope; -and amongst other, things which it condemned was the statement, "that1 "emigrants to' Catholic countries should have fredem of worship." - Col. Haultaih pointed ont that the Pope 'was the head of 'the controlling influence 'in Quebec, and therefore * the fears-1 of the minority we're not unreasonable, 'when called upon to put ' themselves into the power of the hierarchy, for to them, that was what Confederation meant. The Colonel was jeered by members who had declined to commit themselves to the suport of Confederation 'Until' the' scheme- had. been submitted to the Pope and had received his approval. At the consecration of <& church at St. Johns, Que., Cartier pre. ste&ted A ��cppy of the, proposed ^consti-, tution to Bishop Bourget, who considered it with his confreres, and finally sent it tq tbe propagandas at Rome, which returned It with' its'- enctorsation. A constitution relating to British colonies had to reeeive the Papal stamp before it went before the legislature!) of the people affected. The constitution, withheld from the direct vote of the people of Canada, was sent abroad for a foreigner to consider. - - Confederation was supported by the leaders of the two parties in Quebec and Ontario as a device to leave the connection between Church and State as it was, partially releasing. Ontario^ from the hold of the hierarchy while'' strengthening its grip on' Quebec. Confederation prolonged the life of an evil, the meddling of the Church of Rome with thie?'"government of the that the priests belonged to a spiritual order and were therefore above the law and beyond the jurisdiction of the courts. There were decisions recogniz. ing canon law, and buiial was refused in tbe parish cemetery to the body of a man because he had been a member of a society which had declared for the principle of religious toleration. Public men, made it their boast that their obedience to the bishops was implicit and unreserved, and In pleading before the electors, held this up as a claim for support, rival candidates competing on the hustings in depreciating each others loyalty to the Church. The subserviency of the legislature to the bishops was complete. The care of lunatics, reformatories, refuges, were handed over to buns and monks, and free grants of money and land made to the organizations of the Church. They not only thus ceased to be public institutions, acceptable to all classes, but passed from the control of the legislature, for by virtue of their vows and ordination, nuns and monks, progressing to be bf a heavenly class, resent the superintendence . of laymen. A 'striking instance ot a legislature calling itself British surrendering its sovereign and exclusive right to make laws, was,shown ,in, regard to a bill 'which the Government had brought down- to amend the Education Act. The Archbishop of Quebec sent for the Premier and expressed his indignation at its being introduced -without consulting him.- The bill was hastily drop, ped, and the promise made, which is still observed, that no measure .affecting education should be introduced without being first submitted tp him for his approval. The law was so changed as to place education,-under 'he control of Jthe bishops. The council of public instruction was reconstructed so as to be composed of an equal number of ecclesiastics and laymen. An ecclesiastic was given the privilege to'send & substitute to any meeting'that he could not attend, but this -privilege was withheld from the lay members.1 Consequently the-priests are always in the majority. Thus the educational system, by one fell swoop, was given into tbe ��� hands of the bishops, the legislature divesting itself of what it defines in the Act es part of tbe civil service, and handing over to ecclesiastics the control of tbe expenditure -of>the public money for schools and colleges. Additional instances could be added of the sub- CALL UP 8-7-9-2 'IX J J We the Goods. 615-617 15th Ave. AND Westminster Rd. serviency of the legislature, but perhaps the most striking of all was that of the Mercier government in 'l$88." Bi$hop Bourget invited, the general of the Jesuits to renew his order in Canada, and in 1842 six Jesuit priests were sent to Montreal to establish a college. Whoever chooses to look over a parliamentary guide will see how many members, both at Ottawa and Quebec, have received their training ln St. Mary's College, and will realize how deeply, through the men imbued with its��� principles- in that chosen seat, Jesuitism influences our politics, and shapes the destinies of the Dominion. These newly-arrived Jesuits and their successors described to their pupils as an a<j$ ofcspoilation the confiscation of the Jesuit Estates by King George at th^time- of the conquest, and claimed that" compensation ought to be made. None of the scores of young men who passed through their hands and rose high in the political world dared to country; an evji-.which ought to have propose that the Jesuits be compen- been-dealt with,'in 1866, and which, assuredly,-will-r^et%have to be dealt with, for it is inconceivable that a tree people will continue to submit to their government being subject to the influence of any church; that cardinal, archbishop, or ablegate has to be consulted when a question comes before parliament in which the Church : of Rome claims a voice. The right of the people to have their affairs managed by a parliament and administered by an executive, free from clerical dictation, is self-apparent7 - In copying the American plan of union, the fr'amers of the Act of 1867 did not base it upon equal rights. An article forbidding the establishment of any church in any of the provinces, would have ensured peace and permanence. The United States constitution carefully avoided the subject of negro slavery,.and doing so resulted in the greatest civil war that the world has ever sated for the act of a British administration, until Mercier appeared: Visiting Rome; he made'a proposition to the general of the Jesuits, and this offer was afterwards ratified. by the Pope. On .the .assembling of the legislature,' he introduced; a resolution to pay out of the public funds the sum of $460,00, as compensation to the Jesuits for the estates the Crown had declared public property over a century before. The resolution was adopted and the NEW YORK FA8HION8. New York, March 16.���One-piece frocks are undoubtedly popular, but that does'not mean that blouses will be out' of the running during .the coming season.' A glance at tbe advance displays in the fashionable shops will dbJ- pel any erroneous notions in that direction. There have been pretty blouses in other seasons, but never were they more charming than at this time. The most adorable models-may be found la the big shopsr and their prices vary a great deal according to 4he materials and trimmings used.. ��� , ^ Last year a touch Qf color crept into many of-the blouees^snd this year the color, note is even more pronounced, the result being extremely attractive.

These effect* are again shown this season, but something* newer is the little yoke or hem or inserts of,finest cotton marquisette or voile lo color, a French blue and a soft pink being tbe coloring- most often' repeated; -'The elaborate'lingerie and.net frocks which are figuring among the advance models displayed by the fashionable shops give one the idea that the next summer season's styles will ,not ^be famous for their simplicity, although occasionally one may find some charming model of demure simplicity. In the fine lingerie models open-work embroidery plays an important role, being used freely with lace and-other hand embroidery, and-ibne_ often7finds_bold_- open work designs on 'comparatively heavy linen, entering mto combination with the sherest and finest of handkerchief line, French lawn or batiste. The lower part of the skirt, for example, may be entirely of the heavier linen, weighted with heavy embroidery, while the rest of the frock, save for trimming motifs, may be fairly cobwebby in its fineness. Another idea frequently developed shows very sheer lingerie in open work and raised embroidery in open work and raised cm- brqldery, the latter showing frankly, also in trimming bands or motifs. Heavy laces, too, are used for contrast with the sheer lingerie materials and like the heavy embroidery will drag a soft fulled skirt down into the approved straight and" narrow lines.

The Canadian people have made and are still making great sacrifices to build them, ln order to encourage trade between the provinces and with the United' Kingdom. This immense investment should not be Jeopardised by a Reciprocity Treaty which would divert traffic southward, benefiting United States' transportation lines at the expense of Canadian railways and steamships.

For the fiscal year ending 31st of March', 1910, our" purchases from the United States were ?223,591,809, their purchases from us $113,150,778. For the past decade the returns in round figures show imports from the United States of $1,600,000,000, exports to the United States of .$800,000,000. In other words seven million Canadians purchased twice as much from the United States as ninety' million people in the United States purchased from Canada. As the result of some investigations conducted by The Monetary Times and subsequently verified and added to by officers of the Canadian. Manufacturers' Association, it is known that at the present time at least 200 United States manufacturing companies are operating branch factories in Canada, representing an aggregate investment of $226,000,000. For this influx of capital, with all the benefits accruing to the Dominion therefrom, we must thank a tariff which made it worth whlle-for those who hoped to,sell us goods to come to this side of the line to manufacture. Had that tariff not been a protective one, those United States manufacturers would probably have enlarged their home factories to take care of Canadian business instead of building on this side, in which case we would now be using goods made from United States material with United States labor, instead of goods'made from Canadian material with' Canadian 'labor. CANADA'S FORESTS. Much to Be Done in Preserving Them Per Future Use. ��������� "Of all tbe civilized nations In tbe northern' hemisphere, Canada is doing the least to treat "the publie timber- lands as a permanent asseti'* ' This Is tbe conclusion, reached by' Mr. H. R. MacMillan, one of tbe Assistant Inspectors of Dominion Forest Reserves, after a study of the present status of forestry in Canadad, particularly in regard to the forest fire problem. This study is published by the Forestry Branch of tbe Department of the * Interior as their Bulletin No. 9 ("Forest Fires in Canada"). During 1909 the loss through forest fires throughout Canada amounted to $210,400, and 1909 was by no means a bad year for fires. Tbe expease of fire fighting and fire protection amounted to $380,000. There can be little doubt tbat tbis total of fire loss is much too small. In the first place, the value of tbe timber destroyed is arbitrarily placed at $1.00 per thousand feet, board measure, while tbe actual value ot the trees as they stand in the forest would average much higher-than this. No account is taken of. the damage done to young growth, which, while not now actually saleable, will in the course of a few years have considerable value. "An enormous amount of cordwood," to.quote the words of the writer, "destroyed, in districts where it now has a value, and,in.other dis; tricts where it will soon be needed, has heither been estimated nor valued." Many fires have undoubtedly occurred in districts remote from present settlement, and have destroyed large quantities of timber, which ultimately would command a ready market. . Extracts are given from many works dealing with exploration in Canada to show how widespread and disastrous have been the fires In former years���������even before exploration was attempted, in many cases. '". Treating the subject more' generally in the first part of tbe bulletin, Mr. MacMillan arrives at the conclusion that seven times as much timber has been destroyed by fire in Canada as has ever been cut by lumbermen. This view Is sustained by many lumbermen, some of whose estimates exceed even this. The treatment of land cut or lumbered over and destined to' remain permanently in forest, is one; of the big problems of forestry on this con tinent. This is also discussed, and plans are outlined for the cutting of the timber so as to reduce as much as possible tbe danger from flre.r'bf all kinds of land, cut-over timber land, with chips, tree-tops and othtrL debris scattered around; presents the greatest danger from 'Ire���������a fact tbat is emphasised by many fires which occurred' eVen during the past snmmer ln British Columbia aad Western Ontario/ ��������� "��������� Any who-care to look further into this subject may obtain copies of the bulletin mentioned above, free, of charge, on application to R.

The origin of lace-making is unknown, | though-there are many legends referring to its invention. Upon the whole, writes W. L. Puxley in the "Young Woman," it seems probable that the idea ot lace first hailed from Greece or the Ionian Islands, where many arts flourished long before they, reached Western Europe. The many stories of the extreme antiquity of lace are without foundation, at least' beyond -the fifteenth century, for it seems improbable that the fabric we. should now call lace was known before about the-beginning of the fifteenth century, when amongst the inventories of tbe > great Italian families mention of cer-jWith chopped cut-meats Chocolate Loaf. .

To serve cut in squares and garnish with sweetened whipped cream, flavored with vanilla. tain pieces of lace is made, as in the case of tbe D'Estes; and all the earliest' lace known is made in needle-point and is wrought in designs of Oriental arabesques, thus seeming to confirm tbe belief of its Eastern origin. At first it was made from a drawing done on parchment, upon ,wnlch thread was placed, and the main pattern was outlined in this thread fastened to the parchment,.when the lace was continued by means of buttonholing and other stitches done entirely. with the needle, and hence known now- as "needle-point" lace; while tbe first known patterns' of pillow lace were those published at Venice in 1557 in a small book called "Le Pombe." From its very beginning the art of lace- making flourished greatly in the two centres of pictorial art, i.e., Flanders and -North-Italy, -and -the marvelous beauty of the designs and the execution of lace-making which are seen in the early lace from these two centres has never been surpassed. Some church work, as for example the lace kept in the cathedral of Granada, and shown as early Spanish, is in reality Flemish lace, and was probably brought to Spain from Spanish Flanders. Our own best native lace, that known as "Honiton," is a copy of the Brussels lace, taught by the followers of the Duke of Alva when;, he came to England, and never, quite lost.in Devonshire; while tradition tells us that the lace industry in the Midlands was brought into this country by Queen Catherine of'Aragon, who interested herself in teaching the art of lace- making to the people of the Midlands when she had been sent to Luton to await her divorce. >*��������� One Thing at a Time "How is the new filing system?

Boy���������"VvDhat is a white lie, Pop?" Father���������"Most of the milk we buy, my son." GELATINE DESSERTS. Granulated gelatines are preferable for general use, because they are easily and accurately-measured. A box of gelatine contains two ounces, or four level tablespoonfuls, and -will"jelly three and a half pints of liquid. Gelatine must always1 be soaked in cold water until soft, in the proportion of a fourth of a cupful of water to a tablespoonful of gelatine; then dissolve in boiling liquid���������water, mill: or custard ���������or by standing it in a pan of boiling water, stirring until clear. The. cold water softens and swells the gelatine and renders it: readily soluble in the hot liquid. Strain through "a fine strainer after it is dissolved. Gelatine should not be cooked, as much boiling destroys its solidifying property. Whenever a cupful is mentioned,1 a standard measuring cup, holding half a pint, is meant. Spoon measurements are always level. ',, Molds must be rinsed in cold water, then drained, just before pouring in jelly. Chill on ice. To remove the jelly; dip the mold quickly in hot French Charlotte. Soak a tablespoonful of graulated gelatine in one-fourth cupful cold water, dissolve in one-fourth cupful boiling milk, add one cupful sugar, stir until'dissolved, strain.and cool. Whip a pint of heavy cream until stiff, add gelatine', mixture by the spoonful, th en fold in six macaroons crumbled fine, two tablespoonfuls each of candied cherries and candied pineapple,' and one cupful chopped blanched almonds* toasted in the oven/until, delicately' browned. "-Flavor^with vanilla. Tutn into a mold and chill. Serve with lady.fingers or. angel cake. Simply made, but very rich. Marshmallow Pudding. Soak a tablespoonful of granulated gelajtine in a fourthHsf, a cupfti^of cold water, disolve in three-fourths cupful boiling water, and add one .cupful of sugar. Stir until dissolved, strain and cool. Beat whites of four eggs until stiff, add gelatine mixture by tho spoonful, one cupful heavy cream whip- ped until stiff and vanilla to flavor. Divide mixture Into two parts. Tint one part pink with red color, which comes in package of gelatine, and add one-half cupful cherries cut fine. Flavor remaining part with orange, lemon'or bitter' almond extract, and add one-half cupful candided cherries cut fine. Flavor remaining part with orange, lemon or bitter almond extract, and add twelve marshmallpws cut into dice. Put into a mold having. pink layer underneath, arid sprinkle one-half cupful English walnuts cut into pieces between layers. Chill, un- mold. and garnish with one cupful of heavy cream beaten until stiff, sweetened with one-third cupful sugar and flavored with vanilla, An7 attractive and delicious dessert. Chocolate Jelly. Soak one tablesponful; granulated, gelatine in one-fourth cupful cold water. Melt a square of unsweetened chocolate in the top of a double boiler, add two-thirds cupful of sugar and.two cupfuls milk. When .hot, add the soaked gelatine and stir until it is dissolved. Strain, cool and flavor with vanilla. Turn into a mold, chill and serve with plain or whipped cream. This is an inexpensive and healthful dessert, of which the little ones are usually very fond. To readily change this into the popular Plum Pudding Jelly, add half a teaspoonful of cinnamon and an eighth teaspoonful of cloves. Soak one cupful seeded, raisins, one-half, cupful currants and one-fourth cupful sliced citron in hot water to cover for ten minutes, drain and add to gelatine mixture when it commences to harden.
