The follow- | ' ing recipes have been tried and found simple and easy to make, at the same time, offering the right amount of flavor to appeal to jaded palates: Bolled Salad. Dressing Mix together, dry, one teaspoon : one tablespoon mustard, dne heaping teaspoon flour, one tablespoon sugar, a speck of cayenne pepper, Beat the yolks ct three eggs and stir into the dry Ingredients until smooth, Add butter the size of two eggs, two-thirds of a cup of milk and two-thigds cup of vinegar, Cook until thick. This. dress- - Ing is improved by adding cream plain 5 or whipped just before serving.

The cream may be « whipped and the seasonings added. Stuffed Tomatoes = To stuff tomatoes choose large, firm remove the skin by plunging ones, them into hot water for a few seconds, cut a slice off the stalk end, and scoop out the pulp from the inside. = 'Mix the pulp with a little pepper and' salt, alittle chopped onion and ! some minced ham.

Put a teaspoonful f sugar and the juice of half a lemon 0-4 glass with a little of the beaten hite of the egg, then a squirt of soda water, then more white and more soda until all the white is used up. Then put in the beaten yolk in the same way with more soda water. Drink this while it is still fizzy, and see how much better you will feel. Have you ever tried stewing dates in just the same way as you stew prunes, with a little lemon rind? Cold and served with custard they make a sweet which is very refreshing, Flowers gathered at a picnic are often found to be withered when they arrive home," Don't throw them away before you have tried placing them in a cool place in a jug of fairly hot, steam- ing water. Most flowers will respond to this treatment within an hour, but if it fails and you happen to have any gum campher in the. house, drop a tiny plece in the jug. It greatly helps to | Increase the absorption of water. A Fashion Note Satin Is being hailed as the new: popular fabric of the moment. For daytime. and street wear it is styled into suits or dress and jacket ensem- bles, Black, of course, is"the leading color. However, one shop Is showing a sleek, trim jacket outfit in cool lem: on yellow. Another leading store is displaying a white shadow-check or- gandie frock with which is worn a black satin jacket, a little longer than finger-tip length. Satin shines in even- ing dresses. It is being developed in cool pastels, as_well as black or white. Looking crisp and cool and very sleek was a black satin evening gown with which was shown an organdie jacket, cut mess-jacket style. Evening gloves in satin, palmed in kid, have appeared. And stepping jauntil along was a spectator sports frock of white satin. Ald to Coolness One or two electrlc fans, placed. in the rooms you use most, will do much to make your home more comfortable in the summer. The kinds which os- cillate are, of course, best. Point them up toward the ceiling so the air can circulate and yet will not blow direct- ly on anyone. Never sleep with a fan *| blowing on the bed. 3 ~ a : July Fair wag the morn today, the Dblos- som's scent Len Floated across the fresh grass, and the bees a With low vexed song from rose and lily went, WEEE Ey A gentle wind was in the heavy . trees, ' , The earth no longer labored; shaded lay , The sweet-breathed kine, across the sunny vale, From hill to hill the wandering rook did sall, ; Ginger Sorbet 14 pound candied ginger, 2 quarts water, 2 cups sugar, 1 cup lemon juice, uice of 4 oranges, Crushed ice or ce water.

Golden Text--Righteous- ness exalteth a nation; but sin ls a reproach to any people.--Prov, 14: . THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time.--Isaiah began to prophesy (Beecher) in B.C. 766, and, died about B.C. 670. : . Place--Jerusalem. 1.--~DESOLATE HOMES.--Woe unto them that join house to house, that lay field to field, Ceaseless wars had so impoverished the small proprietors that they were - obliged to borrow money at ruinous -rated of interest, sometimes as high as twenty per cent,, which they were unable to pay. This led to forecloseures, to evictions, and the rich greedily added lands and houses to their already vast posses- sions, Isaiah noted this as one of the major evils of his day. Till there be no room, No land to be bought, even it there were money with which to buy it. And ye be made to dwell alone in the midst of the land! The selfish rich dwelt in solitary grandeur, each surrounded by his enormous unpopu- lated territory. God has made the land, not to feed the pride of the few, but the natural hunger of the many, and it is his will that the most be got out of a counry's soil for the people of the country.- - wale TY In mine ears, said Jehovah of hosts, God the commander of the Armies of heaven! He had condescended to give a message to his prophet, as he will speak to any attentive and obedient lis- tener. Of a truth many houses shall be desolate, even great and fair, with- out inhabitant. The greed of the rich defeats its own end. A nation Is pros- perous as all are prosperous, great and humble, learned and unlearned, em- ployer and employed, ruler and ruled. Laws must be advantageous to all. For ten acres of vineyard shall yield one bath, A bath was a measure of between eight and nine gallons--a mls- erably small yield for an acre of viie- yard. And a homer of seed shall yield but an ephah. Probably an "acre" is not an adequate rendering of the Heb- rew term, i 2, WOES OF DRUNKENNESS.-- Woe unto them that rise up early in the morning, that they may follow strong drink. Drinking in the morning was very unusual and specially. dls- graceful. That tarry late into the night, till wine infiame them! Isaiah represents the drunkards of his time 'ag so eager for liquor that they not only spend the entire day in its pur- suit, perhaps going from one convivial gathering to another, bat tarry in the evening. And the harp. Such a stringed in- strument as David played, having a sounding-board. And the lute. Another stringed instrument, but lacking the sounding-board; the psaltery. The tab- ret. A percussion instrument, a drum, And the pipe. A wind instrument, a flute. And wine, are in their feasts. Music played a large part in: their revels, as they sought thereby to drown the voice of conscience. But they regard not the work of Jehovah, neither have they considered the oper- ation of his hands. They take no heed, in their drunken orgies, to "the crown- ing work of judgment whch God is about to execute, and of which there were many ominous warnings for those who could discern the signs of the times. _ : 3. REJECTING THE LAW. Woe unto them that draw iniquity with cords of falsehood, and sin as it were witha cart rope. These men are represented as tugging away at a heavy load of sin by means far too weak for the task, as if one were to pull'a great weight with a frail and treacherous cord, or tug at a lumber- ing, high-piled cart with a mere rope sure to be frayed and to part in a few minutes. = That say, let him make speed, let him hasten his work, that we may see it. Instead of trembling at the soming judgment of God, which Isaiah has an- nounced, they pretend to desire' its immediate arrival; they want to 'see it." They walk, not by faitlr;-but by sight. And let the counsel of the Holy One of Israel draw nigh and come, that we may know it! "The Holy One of Israel," a precious name of God, is not said 'with reverence but with a sneer. . Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil, . This is the fifth Woe, directed against false reasoners, men who twist arguments, sophistical plea- ders for-evll, skilled to make it ap- pear as 'good. That put darkness for light, and light for darkness. These speakers and writers set forth moral midnight as if it were the dawn of 'righteousness, they can turn even the night to day. That put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! These words are a denunciation of presumptuous rebel lion against recognized law. Woe unto them that .are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight!

She is a slim attractive Parsee girl from Ceylon whose appearance would give: the impression (hat her schoui days were bardly over yel. She was a brilliant scholar at the Maria Grey Training College, London, and after she matriculated she read for the Bar in Lincoln's Inn. I saw her today at her home in Hampstead, where she is living with her mother--writes an Evening News representative. She was wearing a 'native dress of blue and gold. "1 shall be the first woman bar- rister in Ceylon," she said. "There are, of course, a number of women lawyers in India, but up to now there have been none in my own country." "I am 'eager to begin work at the Bar in Ceylh, but I have to wait some time yet before I can do that. I cannot be called until I am 21, and I have to eat my dinner for thre more terms. - "I may go to India first and prac- tice 'there for a time before going to Colombo." Le ' Miss Mehta said there was no branch of the law in which she took especial interest and her practice would be a general one. : "In my country," she explained, "English law has been super-imposed on the cld native laws. There is di- vorce law there as here. SIX YEARS IN LONDON. 5 "I have not considered taking up divorce practice, I can only wait to soe what briefs may come to me." Miss Mehta said her father was a marinesuperintendent at Colombo and was one of the few Parsees in Ceylon.

'among a population of 10,000 persons, within. the last 10 years 156 persons have died of de- lirium tremens." . Bachelors of a century ago were "blockheads.". Attacking gentlemen who, at the age of 40, were still un- attached, the Herald sternly remark. ed: "These consummate blockheads, the bachelors, they, too, muat join the hué and cry to deface and do | fame the most beautiful part of crea- tion, Conscious that they are run- ning contrary to all laws, (human and divihe, they come forth , with hard words in the place of arguments; they say they are uuable to support a wife; why, it costs you more in six months to pay .for the soda water you drink andthe clgars you smoke and give away (two articles that you can well dispense with and articles that our fathers never saw) than it would to support a sensible wo- man fof 12 months.*" Another article deplored the tend- ency of thoughtless ladies who, rld- ing on a steamboat, dropped broad and successful hints for seats among tired, labor-wearied workmen. The paper related an amusing anecdote .of Lessing, the German au- thor, "who, fn hig old age, was sub: ject to extraordinary fits of abstrac- tion, "On his return home one even- ing, after he had knocked at his door, the servant looked out ot the window to see who was' there; not recoznizing his master in the dark, and mistaking lim for a stranger, he called out, 'The Professor is not at home. - Lessing replied, 'Oh, very well.

He, like Professor Cipriani, is of the opinion that at the time they were placed there the 'desert supported such animal life.
