Iroquois. The report is that she foundered shortly after leaving- Sydney, B. C. This means that she went down in comparatively quiet waters, and the cause must have been faulty loading. Two weeks ago the Sechelt foundered just out of Victoria and about twenty lives were lost. We remarked 'at that time that there were other dangerous craft on this coast .which should not bo allowed, to carry pasengers. , This is true. Surely these two terible accidents will result in an investigation by the authorities-. We fear that the public are usually too indifferent, the companies to mercenary and the officials to dilatory in these matters. , i The public must not allow: this occasion to pass without the most exhaustive inquiry' being made and a ful public explanation given. We do not want a quiet investigation with the official report filed three -thousand miles away in Ottawa, but every word of the report should be available to the public."

Seekf to Justify Hi* Action re Sewerage, but Blunders Along By Mis-statements. The World, tbe mayor's organ and mouthpiece, is 'kept pretty busily engaged straightening out the tangle His Worship has gotten himself into, and evidently finds it rather a difficult task, judging from the many contradictions and misrepresentations which appear in its .columns. Last Saturday, in a lengthy editorial in which the Attorney General was the chief object of its attack, it honored Aid. Stevens by,referring to the views which he had expressed on annexation and sewerage. ���������. To .show the consistency of the World, we will quote two clauses in the same issue referring to the same speech > "Aid. Stevens briefly outlined the history of annexation . . . Quoting figures to show^that the City of Vancouver- wis" now" in a financial position to atend to the question. . . " Compare that report with, "Last, night Aid. Stevens argued that the dity is not in a position to provide South Vancouver with sewerage.'' Both items are referring to a the same speech. Which does the World expect 4he public to accept t So much for ", ito consistency. Here is an illustration of the misrepresentation resorted to in order to draw atehtion away from the mayor's hopeless position: "Early in December Aid. Stevens went to Victoria, an dwhen he came back he reported to the Annexation Committee that it was his impression the Government would grant enabling legislation for annexation. Twice during December Aid. Stevens went to Victoria." This is indeed- a jewel. In the first place the word "December',' should be spelled "January," then in the next place the report to the Annexation Committee refered to Hastings and D. L. 301, not South Vancouver; and further, there were no Annexation Committee meetings in December. G, The facts are as follows: Early in January Aid. Stevens went to Victoria to adjust with the Provincial Government some details necessary to consummate the annexation of Hastings Townsite and D. L. 301, and while there took-occasion to ���������enquire'if South Vancouver had as yet made apv plication to the Government for "enabling legislation," and was informed that they had not. He then returned to Vancouver and immediately ��������� wrote ��������� the"'following letter to Reeve Pound of South Vancouver: Vancouver, B. C, January, 1911. "City Clerk's Office, "Reeve Pound, "South Vancouver, B. C. % "My Dear. Mr. Pound:���������y "������ "V7Y - "I have just returned from Victoria, and while there interviewed Mr. Bowser regarding ^he proposed amendments necessary to enable you of South Vancouver" to' secure the required vote for annexation to the City. "It seems the matter has not been taken up with him from your standpoint, and he suggested that the time was rather short to do anything this session, but has promised to take it up With the Executive. * V-' "JP^p#?#M|ire-- =���������;��������� ^^^^k^W^iSmr ���������;tt'3ffi^X*.<tt!������---..-,!S.:&vK.-j "I think it'would be a wise move for you and your Council to take early steps to bring before - the Government the extreme difficulty under which you labor in connection with this matter, and this will probably result in the necessary, amendments being secured. Yours truly, "H. H. STEVENS, Chairman Annexation Committee." A brief explanation at this point is necessary. Last summer, when negotiations were first opened re annexation with South Vancouver, Reeve Pound intimtaed that it would be necessary to secure "special legislation," andagreed with the "city" members-of the^ebmihittee-that-South Van- ; couver would attend to that part of the matter, consequently nothing was done at all by the city committee, and when Aid. Steven's learned in January, just before the House met, that nothing had been done, he at once wrote the letter quoted. Itawas not until early in February that any application was made to the Government for, the special legislation of .-which we hear so much. The Government turned it down; and as far as we are concerned we disagreed with the action of the Government, but not to the extent that we would feel compelled to blackguard the administration unceasingly. We believe that having lost in that case we should adopt another course, and have ever since most persistently urged the adoption of the joint sewerage scheme. Not so, Mr. Mayor; he feels it his duty to block, ridicule and oppose , every suggested solution to the sanitary problem, insisting on harping back to the Government's refusal to give special legislation, and will listen to no reason. The mayor has been holding.meetings in South Vancouver at which he tells the residents "The City is in a position to provide sewerage works for South Vancouver, and next year two millirin dollars can be spent, on sewerage works alone, if necessary;" lie also tels them he will give sew-, erage relief in six months^if only they were annexed. Aid. Stevens pointed to the financial obligations of the City and aserted that in his opinion the joint trunk sewerage scheme should be financed independent of the general debt of the districts ' involved. To do this, he said, it would be necessary to obtain special powers from the ^Provin- cial Government as no such powers existed at the present time, and also that'it "would be wise to have the Government represented on the committee in order that they might be familiar with each step. For this he was taken to task by the World. The mayor is quite welcome to-hold any; opinion he may see .fit,'but-we question his right to mislead the public. We are as desirous as anyone to see a Greater Vancouver- in factr the editor of this paper is responsible for the question taking practical form, but we deprecate any effort to deceive the residents of South Vancouver into iithinking that anexation will give immediate relief.

I think I am as good a judge of the different nationalities and their characteristics as are the average writers. I say, unhesitatingly, that the Englishman is needed as much as is any other man on this round ball. And I do not except the Canadian, especially the ignorant1 and impertinent sort who seem to take a delight in insulting Eng-; . lishinen. * These men from the "old sod" make good to as large a per cent, as do native-borne Canadians. They are as successful as are those of any other nation. They carry with them characteristics' ' which are a boon to any commonwealth, be it old or young. ' . _ s ������ Personally, I welcome the Englishmen, and amY always proud to see them coming into our midst. Moreover, they are coming whether they are invited or not. They do not have to wait for an' invitation. They are a very different breed, and Y go, as they always have gone, just when and, where they please. They are the most .successful and populous migrators in the history of mankind. They are coming to Canada by tens and hundreds of thousands whether Canadian snobs like it or ' ' not. Canadians who are true men, who are revned iri spirit and observant, most heartily welcome -��������� these Englishmen,c.and have no fears about the, helpful' advantages they carry with them to any land they visit and' make their home, ��������� The Englishman has that in his nature that fits him to come, and still come in spite of opposition and ridicule. He is of a kingly class, and is one of the earth's best and most successful rulers for a long period. And hisv mind and spirit are made up on the question of -coming to Canada, when he pleases, and will ask not any man on earth whether an invitation" and a welcome await him: Come on, Mr. Englishman, by ones, twos, tens,' . hundreds, and scores of thousands. There,is ample " room for yotf' ihtnis'Dominion of 'Canada.'" You; are, by nature and intellect,,loyal to the' Grand; Old British Union Jack. Come along, with your gruff voice, your/domineering ways, your self-, assertiveness, your love of truth, your brave and fearless spirit. There is room for millions of your sort in Canada. Every land,,to which you and your nation have gone for an abiding place, has been bettered by your presence. Whether we blue-blooded Canadians like it or not, your mission on this earth, ,from the days of Joseph in Egypt to this hour, has been to uplift the human family, and no men in the history of the world haVe done so* much of nation-building and uplifting as has been done by your race. And this work is awaiting you right here in Canada. You are welcome, because you are needed. ' Our country needs you and those of our Canadian-born sons most of all. -", I am Canadian-born, and raised in the land I love most, but I am proud to be able to claim not only good British blood, but English blood in my veins. And there are, more descendants of the Englishman in Canada than of any two other nationalities on earth. Come on! E. ODLUM. First we must have a "trunk sewer system." This will cost millions, and most of it will have to be constructed as soon as possible, hence tht _ absolute necessity of some very careful financing, if other public works are to be carried on as re-' ������������������quired. ���������.'.-''��������� ' ������������������ y' ��������� We submit to our readers the following data, and ask that they judge for themselves. The City's borrowing-power, including the very latest revised assessment roll, is $17,914,000. The present bonded debt is $16,074,000, plus local improvement now passed, of which the city has ��������� legal liability of $217,064, or a total debt now of $16,345,064, leaving a surplus of $1,568,936. Against this surplus there is now before the City Council money by-laws amounting to $3,955,000, which means a deficit this early in the year of $2,386,064. In other words, provision has been made in April, 1911,-"to spend nearly two and a half million dollars beyond our borrowing powers. We have nine months of this v^ar "till to r:������r? and heavy expenditures on local improvements are sugesteid, of which it in estimated the C'tv's share will reach close on another million, besides many other schemes which wil arise*before the year closes. , It is argued by the Mayor that next year the City"will,add $6,006,000 to its borrowing powers. That may be true, but next year will bring its own demands. It-will.require-every-cent'.we can get to put in lateral sewers, without expending a cent on trunk sewers. There is a large portion of the city simply reeking in filth and crying for sewers. If the mayor is such a magician that he - is going to give South Vancouver sewers in six months, why does he not*make some suggestion of how we "can sewer; the older city? j, It would appear that the-mayor.is limited to "talk," and is incapable of practical action. Many of us expected great things of him a year ago, perhaps we expected too much. If so. he is to blame, not frince -who tmcWi bim. ITe has promised great things but has failed to bring before" the. Council'any practical sctieme of public improvement, but on the contrary has attacked others who have, and ibost assiduously opposed and obstructed all efforts to get a permanent solution of these vexing problems. 7 *v ' / 1~ THE WESTERN CALL +-H*������^*^:^^^^H-*H.^^^ **H>**H.������^ V*** f New stock of CAMERAS, FILMS, PAPERS, Etc. at I.

MEASURING DISTANCE BY SOUND. An Ingenious plan has been suggested for measuring the altitude of the aeroplane. The '��������� principles . of acoustics are interestingly employed. It is known that- any'sharp sound, such as a quick whistle, or report, which may he differentiated from the sound made by the machine itself, will be returned to the ear of the opera' tor, in the form, of an echo, from the surface of the earth. If, therefore the time elapsing between the. sound and the echo be noted, the corresponding distance may be estimated from the known velocity of sound���������1,100 feet a second. Taking this, and remembering that it is double the distance, going and coming, the operator in the aeroplane is able to estimate quite accurately the distance from the machine to the earth.

The story is told of a man of large wealth who lived most of the year in a country home among the htllaTof Vermont, U. S. A. All, his inheritance and 'surrounding were those of culture and luxury. .All the temptations of wealth drew him towards ease, and selfishness. But, instead of that, he was-known in the little church of the place, ana hroughout the neighborhood, as a self-sacrificing, hard-working, -onse- crated Christian. One day a minister who visited the church asked him how he came to throw himself so heartily into Christian work. His answer was quaint but striking: When I became a'Christian, and began to read my Bible with appreciation of its meaning, I read that I was called into the vine yard of the Lord; and I made up my mind at once' that I was nbt called, there .to eat grapes, but to hoe, and I've been trying to hoe ever since. The man with the hoe is needed in every church: Those Christians who come Into the Lord's vineyard and have no idea of doing anything- are usually in the majority. , "I|ve joined the church," said such a man to his pastor, I am saved. But you'll have to excuse me from coming to prayer-meetings, or taking up Sabbath-school work, TRANSCONTINENTAL IMPROVE; MENT. The C. P. R. are proposing to continue the double-tracking of ' their main line from Brandon, Manitoba, to Medicine Hat, Alberta, and it is believed that work will begin this spring. At present the C. P.

R. will be able greatly to reduce the running time of transcontinental and local trains. The Canadian Northern Railway Company have made a fair start toward making this a record year in'-its growth and business development. Since the beginning of the year the company have placed orders for rails to be delivered in 1911 to the amount of 90,000 tons, at a cost of over $3,000,000. These rails will be laid in Ontario and Western,Canada. There are at present 520 miles graded and ready for the.steel in Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Alberta. Last year 528 miles, of rails were laid, but that record will be greatly exceeded this ye������r. . . 11 SPECIALIST in all kinds of Interior and Decor- ?

A very old game, but one that is still popular with the young people in some sections of the country, is called by the meaningless name of j "Comety-come." It it has any mean-' ing, no one seems lo know what it is. No one attempts to'clef ne it, but the game is handed flown from genera.-v tion to generation, and probably will be for years to come. The leader chooses an- object that is in the room, and gives, the initials of it. The others must guess what it is. It may be a single word, or it may be compound. If ownership is introduced it makes it little more difficult. For instance, if the letters are "M. D.," standing., for- -"mother's -dress," or "Jt,S���������" for "John's shoes/'' it is harder to guess. Colors .also may be brought in," or size, br even shape.

"The question is- not one of beauti- fication merely, its essential character is one of necessity for a working population in an industrial citq. In ail large' cities of modern nations, which have not been planned, certain very great evils have been .found, to result from size. The poorer people find their work in the .centre of the mass, their buildings.and habitation become- congested and. undesirable. . Light, air and space for recreation are absent and .the health of the people is lowered and an alarming. death rate develops The children, having no playgroundB die rapidly, juvenile crime develops, the growth'of population is stopped and efficiency, is, immensely .lowered. The enormous problems of. the slums and degeneracy arise/ Much has been done to remedy'these evils by sanitation and education, but it Is thoroughly recognized in,Europe that nothing can replace good original planning. Not only are playgrounds and parks necessary in the centres of cities, but .ampler, parks further out tire necessary and .escape to,them 1b provided by cheap, rapid, comfortable transit facilities." ," , News from Antwerp to the effect that two immigrant steamers of the, Red Star line, the Gothland and the,' Samland, are tc be transferred from the American to the Canadian service is surely a sign of the times. Al-.' though the totals of immigration into Canada and the United States still j show a large difference in favor of the latter it cannot be questioned that the ratio of increase in immigration, not only from the British Isles, but from the Continent of Euiope, is pronounced in favor of Canada. While immigration into the United States, speaking generally, is being maintained, especially from the Russian and Slavonic countries and from Italy, it' Is doubtful if the total number of' immigrants will rise very much above its present proportions. i Immigration into the United States reached its highest point in 1907 when the total was 3,2S5,349. ln consequence of' the financial disturbance pf that and the following year the total fell to 782,870 in 1908 and to 751,786 in 1909. Each of these latter totals is less than thatJ of either of the years 1903 and 1904 and is less, in fact, than the total immigration of a year as far back as 1882. In 1910 the total rose to 1,041,570, but there is no reason to suppose that immigration into the United States will ever greatly exceed the million mark.'

But taking into account the excess of British-born immigrants from the States into Canada over the number of immigrants ' from Canada into the States, it would be correct to say that already the [main stream of British emigration has turned towards Canada. .

WHO WILL GET THE POST OFFICE. <���������A Big struggle is on among our Liberal friends for the position of postmaster made vacant by the death of Mr. Hay. Names mentioned so far as applicants are Dr. J. J.* Foster, John Scott, W. Climie, W. Bradley, J. A! Hacking, J. H. McDonald and Wm. Bright of town, and H. Hemsworth, Wallace, with probably several other "dark horses" in the background. Feeling is running high amongst some of the applicants and a split in the party hereis threatened if the office is not quickly filled, and may result in any case. Each of the candidates has his political friends, whoare doing all the wire-pulling in their power. Some of the applicants' friends are quite outspoken. One of them, a German farmer whose mail comes through the local- post office, is reported to have said: Yes, by golly," mentioning his favorite's name, "he will Tget it sure.

Any one wishing to spend a delightful half holiday and at the same time find a place for good investments, cannot do better; than take the Fraser avenue car at the corner of Hastings street and Main street, and go direct to ��������� Ferris. - road, South Vancouver. Alighting there, you will be surprised at the exquisite views all around. Leaving the grand mountain scenery behind, you look towards the southl and. a beautifu,, far-spreading vista will meet your gaze; passing down the avenue across the, bridge, over v the silver waters of the Fraser River, the verdant, pasture land of Lulu Island, backed by the sombre bills of the States, at once revives the spirits of the tired city worker, and he Involuntarily' pauses to enjoy the .perfect air which surrounds hlin.

He will not be asked to buy, but if he needs a good incsstment he can rely on straightforward and honorable dealing there. ...... No one can doubt that South Vancouver is a rapidly advancing city, and the land is daily growing more valuable and the greatert credit should be given to the murJ Jpality. for the advancemt.it they have made during the last three years. Good roads and sidewalks are to be seen everywhere, and new roau: are being opened for the benefit of investors. Stores of every description are doing well; thei tradesmen call for.orders and deliver their goods on the same day. Churches ot all denominations are springing up. St. Mary's Church of England was opened by the Bishop of Westminster a fortnight ago, and the large congregation spoke in favor for its future success. The Baptist Church under the care of the Rev. aRedmen is a (great favorite among many of the '(residents, the pastor being a remarkably clever preacher. And the Methodists are well taken care of by the Rev. John. Page, whose attractive little church is a pretty landmark, on Forty-seventh avenue. We understand the Ladies' Aid Society will hold a sale of work next Friday, April 7th, beginning at three o'clock, at the private residence of Mr. and Mrs. Page, near the Methodist Church. ������������������ The schools are also making wonderful headway and a new one is to be built shortly in the vicinity of the North Arm, the River Roal school being no longer large enough for the number of pupils. The South Hill school is a fine building and is already full of scholars. Mr. Clarke, the head master, makes a very proficient teacher. We are sorry to hear Mr. McDonald, the assistant master, is ill, Buffering from pneumonia. The boys of the South Hill school were successful in winning the "Grover Cup" last Friday in the final test game with the Moun- : tain; View team; Both sides played well and with great fairness. During the first part of the game the Mountain View boys seemed to have the advantage, but ln the latter half, the South Hill, team played up well, and a goal being won.by Percy F. James decided a very tight battle in their favor and also brought their football season to a close. Mr. and Mrs. Sherlock have returned to their pretty residence on Fraser avenue, after a pleasant visit to California.

Mr. Robert Harris, the dean of Canadian artists, instead of weeping, is smiling. He sees signs, in the weeping���������signs that the Do-' minion is at last arousing itself to an interest in art. Although it has not been generally noticeable, he says. Canada has been proTesf'ng steadily ln the development of her artistic temperament. It has begun in the commercial grad'v. of course, but when people have made money out of art it will not be long before they will turn naturally to "art" for art's sake." A few dayg ago. he said, he noticed that a small band of Canadians, amongst them Mr. William Stone of the Pank of 'Toronto and Mr.- Edmund Bristol, M.

Easter Dinner Menu. , ���������:��������� y Onion Soup. Beques' Baked Mackerel. ��������� Cucumber Ribbons., Chicken Paprika. Spring Croquettes. French String Beans. - 'Grapefruit Salad. Toasted Fromage Rolls. . Bavarian Panache. Bonbons.; Salted Almonds. Cafe Noir. A soup which bears the homely name of Onion Soup is now being served at many fashionable hotels. It certainly deserves a better name, for far from being commonplace, it is very'delicate and may well find a place in a formal menu. Make eight or ten gashes in a six-pound piece of beef cut from the shin; put in a soup kettle, add three quarts of cold water, cover, heat slowly to the boiling point, and let simmer seven hours; then strain, and remove fat. Thinly slice five small onions, and cook in two tablespoonfuls of butter until the onions are soft, stirring frequently, 12���������Call.. cmfwyp etaoinnupJ that tbey may not burn. Add onions to six cupfuls of stock-brought to the boiling point, and add two and one- half teaspoonfuls of good beef extract, and salt to taste. ' Cut bread in one- third-inch slices, and toast. Place a piece in each, boup plate, sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese, and add soup just before sending to the table. Begiies' Baked Mackerel hast tickled the palate of many a' traveler when visiting the interesting city of New. Orleans. A mackerel from Northern waters or one of the Spanish mackerel may be used for this dish. .Certainly no simpler fish" course" could be planned for. Wipe the fish with a cheese cloth wrung out of cold water, brush over with olive oil, put in a dripping pan which has been brushed over"with'olive oil, sprinkle with salt, pepper���������and^ finely- chopped-_ parsley, and bake in a moderate oven. ��������� Cucumber Ribbons are very much more attractive than sliced cucumbers. ' Cut a thick slice from both ends of cucumbers, and pare; then cut in one-thlrd-inch slices. Cut the slices round and round to form ribbons, using a small, sharp vegetable knife. Plunge into iced or very cold water, and let stand thirty minutes. Drain and pour over a French dressing made by mixing one-half teaspoonful of salt, one-fourth of a teaspoonful of pepper, three tablespoonfuls of vinegar and three tablespoonfuls of olive oil. Sliced cucumbers require less time than cucumber ribbons and are very pretty if one plays a little trick with the vegetable in this fashion: After a cucumber is pared, draw, a three- tined fork its entire length, and so continue until small cuts have been made around the cucumber; then.cut in thin slices. By this use of the fork the slices have a cut edge which is a novelty to many, and I have seen people who wondered how it could be quickly accomplished. They presumed each piece was dealt with separately, an operation which would involve too much time to make it appeal to the practical. Chicken always furnishes a satisfactory central dish for an Easter dinner. A recipe for Chicken Paprika reached me last fall which.I feel quite sure is new to most of my readers. Dress and clean two chickens, cut in pieces for serving, wipe with a piece of cheese cloth wrung out of cold water, and sprinkle with salt and. pepper. Fry one-half cupful; of finely chopped onion in four and one-half tablespoonfuls of butter fifteen minutes, stirring frequently, that the onions may not burn. Add chicken, and sprinkle witli four and one-half tablespoonfuls of flour; then add one *~>^*HHf������H-������H-^**4^ ^^H*^-^-^X--H--:-^^-H^^H^H,I''t"l? SPRING GOODS SPRING STYLES i. teaspoonful of paprika and one and one-half cupfuls of chicken stock. Cook on top of the range twenty minutes, put in a casserole dish, and cook in oven until the chicken is tender, adding more stock if necessary. 1 think all my readers know that in speaking of chicken stock I mean the liquor in which a fowl has been cooked. Of course, if one does not own a casserole dish, she need not be 'de--' barred from introducing this chicken with her menu, for any earthenware dish may be used in its stead. Chicken paprika may be served on a bed, or, as chefs say, on a socle of hominy, .ind garnished with spring croquettes. When lioiniuy is used for such a purpose if is well to cook it using one- half milk and one-half water. Spring Croquettes conVblne potatoeF and spinach in a- novel way. Wash, ,)are, and cook potatoes in boiling salted water to cover; drain, and force through a potato ricer; there should be two cupfuls. Add two and onchalf j tablespoonfuls of butter, the" yolks of /two eggs slightly beaten, and one- ; fourth of a cupful of finely chopped cooked spinach. Mix thoroughly, ana season with salt and pepper. "Shape in the form of croquettes to represent eggs, dip in flour, egg and crumbs, fry in deep fat, and drain on brown paper. Spinach will keep, its green color if cooked in an uncovered vessel in a large quantity of boiling water to which salt, powdered sugar and soda are added. Half, a peck of spinach requires two quarts of water, one-half tablespoonful of salt,, one-half . teaspoonful of sugar and one-fourth of a teaspoonful of soda.' A Grapefruit Salad 1b very refreshing for a dinner. .In the salad which I offer as an illustration the grapefruit pulp is arranged on artichoke bottoms, which are bought ln cans. This part of the salad may be dispensed with if one so desires, but if one cares for the novelty of it, let me go into detail. Cook canned artichoke bottoms in chicken stock to cover ten minutes; drain, cool, marinate with French dressing, cover, and let stand one hour. Arrange on small nests of crisp lettuce leaves, and mound with grapefruit pulp which has also been thoroughly chilled and marinated with French dressing. Pour over all a French dressing, and garnish with strips of red pepper, xn the dressing on this salad use red wine vinegar and paprika. -There can be no daintier conceit to pass with a salad course than Toasted Fromage Rolls. Cut fresh bread while still warm in as thin slices as possible, using, a very sharp knife; then remove crusts. Work butter until creamy, using a wooden spoon;' then add an equal quantity ofVcream cheese that has been worked until creamy; mix thoroughly, and season sparingly with salt. Spread slices of bread evenly with the creamed mixture, and roll slices separately; toast, and arrange on a plate covered with a paper doily. Lace paper doilies are so attractive and so inexpensive that it seems a shame not ��������� to' have them in every household. I presume they- are not for sale in small towns, but may be bought of any large, first-class city grocer. N .. _ A Bavarian Panacne is a somewhat elaborate dessert, the notion for which came from a Swiss town. First let us consider the Jelly roll which forms the outside. For a Jelly Roll, beat the yolks of four eggs until thick and lemon colored, then, add, gradually, while beating constantly, one cupful of sugar, and beat two minutes. Puf one. and one-half) ta.blespoonfuls of corn starch into a cup, and fill the cup with pastry flour once sifted. Mix and sift flour and corn starch with one and one-fourth teaspoonfuls of baking powder and one-fourth of a teaspoonful of salt. Add three tablespoonfuls of cold water tp the egg mixture, then add the flour mixture, and mix thoroughly. Add the whites - of four eggs beaten until stiff and one teaspoonful of lemon extract. Butter ��������� dripping, pan, and line bottom and ends with paraffine or tissue paper. Put in the mixture, spread evenly, and bake in a moderate oven. Remove from the pan to a cloth sprinkled sparingly with confectioners', sugar, spread with currant jelly, trim oft* the sides and ends of cake with a sharp knife, and roll as quickly as possible. Line a charlotte russe mold with thin slices of jelly roll, fill with;. strawberry Bavarian cream", and chill. For' the Strawberry Bavarian Cream, soak two tablespoonfuls of granulated gelatine in one-fourth of a cupful of cold water, and dissolve in one-third of a cupful of boiling water; then add one cupful of strawberry sirup, a few grains of salt, and sugar to' taste if not sweet enough. I'obtain strawberry sirup from the best brand of canned strawberries at my command, and get a most satisfactory product for a moderate price. When the strawberry mixture begins, to thicken, fold in,the whip from one pint of thin, cream, and turn into the mold. ' a For a Stylish, up-to-date .

Still, many good housewives of limited means cannot get away from the idea that the best parlor and the guest room must receive first consideration in the expenditure, and that the kitchen must put up with what it can get. Instead of putting the kitchen last on the list, suppose for once it should come flrot in the spring outlay for renovation. Once it is fitted up properly, it will need only a little renewal from year to year if the utensils and furnishings are well cared for. For.the finishing of the kitchen walls paint is satisfactory, or an imitation tile paper in some soft light tone that will look cheerful. To make the room cheerful looking should be the "guiding idea in the decoration' of the kitchen. Two or three small washable mats, woven of cotton rags, may be placed over the linoleum, covered or painted floor to make it more comfortable to the feet, where one has to stand a good deal, as in front of the table. The sash curtains of muslin or dimity should be so arranged that they can be drawn back altogether on dull days to let in all the light possible. A reliable clock, n calendar, and a slate and pencil or writing pad and lead pencil for jotting down marketing re minders, should find, convenient plq on the wall.

That is the place for us; That is where God needs us most, That is our place of trust." -. Have we ever looked at our lives like that? No matter how difficult our, position, It is our place of trust. There is nothing bo inspiriting as'being trusted. It makes us try to carry out the wishes of tbe one.who trusts us to the r best of our ability, because- he selected us to-carry out some work that he thought no one else could do as well. If, then, we feel an earthly; trust i?o important, how much more serious is the trust God has given us to work out for Him? A sentry on duty at the time of war is responsible for the safety of many lives. .It does not sound a very "difficult order to tell him. to watch. But if he falls asleep or fails in that one point, the enemy may stealthily approach and destroy every one in his camp. So it is with our lives. If we are not faithful to the post God has placed us at, if we do not watch diligently, some besetting sin may creep into our hearts and not only destroy pur own happiness, but also tbe peace of all entrusted to our care.
