To two cupfuls of beans add six slices of diced cooked beet, two stalks . 'of chopped celery (or chopped cabbage), two tablespoonfuls of minced sweet pickle, one table- spoonful of tomato catsup and just enough hoiled dressing to slightly moisten, Serve in lettuce leaves, . RICE FRITTERS Take one cup of cold rice, add to it 1 teaspoon melted butter, 1 teaspoon sugar, 1-2 teaspoon salt, 1 egg well beaten and enough milk to make a stiff paste, Make into cakes, dip In egg, then in soda biscuit crumbs and in egg again, Fry in boiling hot lard, When brown on both sides drain well and serve hot, If preferred more milk may be added to the fritter mixture, mak- ing it the consistency of fairly stiff batter, which you drop by spoonfuls into the boiling lard, instead of making the stiff paste rolled in egg and crumbs. The sugar may be omitted, though it makes the cakes a nicer brown, , Brown and dip quickly in salt- ed water as many slices of bread as will cover the platter and but- ter them, chop the steak fine, add salt, pepper, a little butter, and water enough to moisten well, Beat quickly and spread over the toast, ONION SOUPS--EXCELLENT FOR A COLD Meatless soups are invaluable in small households where there are few ingredients for stock, Peel and splice two medium pize onions, then cut into half- inch' pleces. Put into a pint of hot water, add salt, Boil until the onions are thoroughly cooked, In the meanwhile, mix in a cup a essertspoonful cornflour with a tablespopnful of cold milk, stir well into a smooth paste, As soon as the onions are cooked add to them helf a pint of cold milk, and as soon as this comes to the boil stir in the cornflour and stir to a creamy thickness. Add a' little pepper and a small lump of butter. Serve hot, -------------------------------- YOU RUN NO RISK Just get Mrs, Sybilla gpahrs Tonsilitis, use it for throats," Cough, Bronchitis, Croup, Catarrh, Head Colds, and all Throat and Tonsil Di Success or money back. * Oshawa Druggists, a Rexall ~ Birthday Sale The Birthday Sale is our opportunity to impress upon all that we are partners im an organization whose mem- bers have obligated them- selves to give you values and service. 3TH ANNIVERSARY OF THEIR WEDDING Mr. and Mrs. H.

Women no long- er marry for meal tickets: indepen- dent and unmarried women often can make twice as much money as the men who propose marriage to them, mills of the world grind away, Broadway's favorite divorce engineer, Leslie R. Haftzger, has dissected di- vorces and concluded that over the whole world the principal cause of divorce, in order of the importance are: 1 -- Temperament, which means clashing tempers, 2 -- Triangles, another man or another woman. Common abroad, 8 -- Brutality, generally aligned with hard drinking, 4--Too poor to be happy; not an American ailment, 5 -- Too much mother-in-law, or family-in-law, 6--Inability to have children, T7--Racial or religious differences. "Europe is divorcing more than ever in history and the emancipa- tion of women which has developed since the war is largely responsible, Haftzger told the Press. Women Man's Equal "Women no longer regard theirs as the weaker sex, They feel equal to men and their character, unless controlled, develops into tempera- ment which often ends in disaster to marriage, "Europe is not bothered much by mothers-in-law, but temperament, triangles and brutality generally are advanced in court as the reasons for divorce actions, , In the countries hardest hit by war, loss of fortune or starvation wages earned by the husband often sends the wives out to earn money to help the family budget, That is generally fatal, for family life is broken up and happi- ness gone, "There are many divorces in Eu- rope traceable to marriage between persons of different race and religion. They frequently finish badly, al- though it takes up to five years for them to determine that there. are barriers which heart sentiment can- not break. "America, the richest, should be the happiest land, If prohibition can either be enforced or rejected, divorces probably will be decreased, Triangles are the exception, not the rule, as in Europe, for Ameriean po- lice laws are well made to protect marriage in this respect, "But conquer temperament and the American divorce problem will be solved, HEALTH SOAP Purifies 0d Protects LEVER BROTHERS LIMITED TORONTO KARN use any commercial polish.

This is the largest amount ever written by a Canadian Company in ome year, and represents more than one mil- Hop of paid-for business for every working day of the year. This great Canadian Company, which operates in practically all parts of the globe, has now more than one and ome-half billions of assurance in foree. These facts were but two of a series of features stressed today at the Fifty-seventh Annual Meeting of the Company held at the head office here, with President T. B, Macaulay in the chair. Of special interest to pol- icyholders was Mr, Macaulay's an- nouncement that for the eightn | consecutive year the dividends paid | to them would be increased. | The figures of the annual state- | ment are enormous. The report | shows strength in every Division | and demonstrates not only that the lion dollars. plus is now well over forty-five million dollars after making pro- vision for dividends to policyhold- ers accrued but mot yet due, and | lars. .

Sun Life maintains its position as the largest Company in the British Empire writing ordinary business, but also that the Company is rap- | idly gaining ground for world hon- ors. Today the Sun Life stands tenth among the Insurance Com- panies of the world, and sixth place | among Life Insurance Companies | writing ordinary husiness. The fig- | ures thronghout the statement are | really wonderful. Since thé Com- | nany began business in 1871, over | three hundred millions have heen paid to polieyholders or beneficl- aries. The remarkable strides that life insurance is making is lucidly shown by the fact that in 1827 the Company paid to living policyhold- | ers ahout twenty-nine million aot- | lars and to heneficiaries a little | over thirteen million dollars, mak- ing a total of apprayimately forty- | two millions, The demonstrates the large extent to which the Sun Life is linked with the growth of industry both in Canada and the United States. For many years this institution of which Canadians are very proud has made new marks in the life in. surance history of the Dominion, The report for the year 1927 is a revelation of financial strength, and shows that the Company has made its greatest advance in any year since 1871.
