There isnt' a meal of the day when ham can't be used to advantage, For a Sunday morning breakfast, when the family have time to enjoy it, try creamed ham on toast. Creamed Ham, i Two cups finely chopped cold cooked ham; 3% cup minced celery, 2 table- spoons butter," 2 tablespoons flour, 21 cups milk, 6 splices bread. Melt butter in sauce pan, add flour and when bubbling slowly add milk, stirring constantly. Add ham and celery and let cook until 'thick and smooth, stirring to prevent sticking. Season with pepper but no salt. Toast bread to. a golden brown on both sides and arrange on a hot platter, Pour over the creamed ham, garnish each piece with a sprig of parsley and serve.

An-oldish chicken may be used, the ham acting as an extender, In case you have some left-over cold boiled or baked ham on hand, the pie suggests a splendid way to use it up, Boil the chicken until tender. Re- move meat from bones and make a gravy of the chicken stock. Line a deep baking dish with a rich baking powder biscnit crust, rolled about one- kalf inch thick, Place thinly sliced cold boiled ham in alternating layers with chicken in the pastry lined bak- ing dish. Fill with gravy and cover with crust," Bake in a hot oven until 'the crust is done. Serve from baking dish. os To Steam Velvet. The. pile of a velvet frock which has become flattened with much wear may be restored as follows: Place a damp cloth securely round an upturn- ed hot irom, then pass the reverse side oi the velvet across the iron." The pile will almost immediately stand up as fresh as new again, Another way is to hold the velvet over the steam of a boiling kettle. ' ; If one. lives in a house which is equipped with a hot-air furnace, a very simple method of steaming the whole dress is to spouge thoroughly with a damp cloth on the wrong side, then turn dress right side out, ahd sus- pend on a hanger over the hot-air radiator. : iat Filled Potato Cups | Scrub and peel eight uniform size white potatoes, Slice off top and scoop out part of inside, making a cup about one-quarter inch thick.

Parableg of the Kingdom--Matt, 31.33, 44.52. Golden Text.--Of the Increase of hig government and of peace there shall be no end.--Isa, 9.7, TIME--Autumn, A.D, 28, in the PLACE--By the Sea of Galilee, - PARALLEL PASSAGES -- Mark 4: 1.84; Luke: 4-18, ; "Another parable set ha before them," We are to think of Christ as using these and other parables often in his preaching. All truth needs con- stant repitition and reviewing, +'Say- ing, The kingdom of heaven." These eight parables, all relating to this one then, are called "the parables of the kingdom," that is, the reign of right- eolisness, peace, and oy which Christ caL.. to establish on earth, "Is like unto a grain of mustard seed." The likeness is in the smallness of the seed as contrasted with the size of the plant which springs from it. "What a man: took, anc! sowed in his field." The king- dom, though it comes from heaven, cannot be sown on earth except by man, : "Which indeed is less than all seeds." The smallest of the seeds in common use, the smallest commercial seed. "But when it is grown, it is greater than the herbs." Larger than any other zarden plant. "And bec.m- eth a tree." As tull as a_small tree, sometimes ten or twelve feet higl. "So that the birds of the heaven come ard lodge in the branches thereof.' The passage indicates the rest, food, shelter and enoyment of the kingdom, "Another parable .spake he unto them," The analogy which appealed to his mind might not appeal to an- other, so he tried another comparison. "The kingdom of heaven is like unto leaven."" In Bible times the Jews used for yeast a little old dough, highly fermenting, which gave the bread a sour taste. Elsewhere, therefore, lea- van is a symbol of evil, but hare of good influences, "Which a woman took." Bread-makinr hele oman work as seed sowing was man's. "Aad hid in three measures of meal," Three scahs, or aboui three pecks and ive quarts »f meal, the customary amount for a household, "Till it wes all leav- ened." The point is the large amount of meal that was raised by the small amount of yeast. "The kingdom of he-.ven i: like untp a treasure hidden in the field." In thos2 days when such banks and Je- posit vaults as we have were unknown, it was not uncommon for mer. to bury their coin and other valuables in the ground. "Which a man fourd, and hid." He hid it aeain, lest some one else might find it, and so that he night purchase the field and so gain title to its rich contents, If the gospel were 80 obvious tha' no one could miss it, the possession of it could be no- thing but a mockery. "And in his joy he goeth and se!leth all that he hath and buyeth tha! field." It is worth far mora than all he has. "Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is a merchant seeking goodly pearls." One of the travelling Jewish merchants so coms non in the East, dealing especially in gems and jewelry because they are so easily transported. Man is made to seek for the most beautiful things, the noblest things, the highest things. "And laving found one pearl- of great price." Such a pearl is the kingdom of God--worth all other kingdoms put together. "He went and sold all that he had, and bought it." Alertness, method, decision, courage! These are some of the qualities that are needed by the citizen of the King- dom as by the man of worldly busi- ness. With these splendid business in- stinets he will do fine bargaining, and redone rich in faith and: hope and ove, : "Again, the kingdcm of heaven is like unto a net." The large operations of the kingdom of heaven are here pic- tured. "That was cast into the sea, and gathered of every kind." The church is a mixed company. The word of invitation is addressed to all sorts ard conditions of -men. . "Which, when it was filled, they drew up on the beach." Every Chris- tian effort should be brought to a de- finite conclusion, that results may he garnered. "And they sat down." The work was of vital importance and re- quired the most careful consideration. "And gathered 'he good into vessels, but the bad they cast away." All the edible and useful fish were kept care- fully, but the useless ones were dis- carded. / "So shall it be in the-end:of the v.orld" The time of final judgment upon seuls.

"There shall be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth." : "Have ye understood all thesé things?" A true teacher will not stop till he is sure tha' his teaching has been comprehended by his pupils and fixed in their memory. "They say unto him, Yea." They replied with an alacrity which the facts hardly war- ranted, 'Yea, Lord.! They affirmed that they did understand all these mysteries, They thought they did. "And he said unto them, Therefore every scribe who hath been made a disciple to the kingdom of heaven." Iie said in effect, 'You are to become the new scribes, the interpreters of the kingdom, those through whom the age will know the facts concerning the government of J "Ig like unto a man that is a householder." Christ paints the Christian under the gimili- tude of a produent housekeeper; who, to provide against possible contin n- cies, has storerooms and cellars where he gathers articles and implements of all' descriptions, arranging and clasa< ifying them.

But now that "a new heroic type" of man- hood has arisen it was meant that wo: man should be relegated to the home, there to reign as a sovereign queen.
