HR ---- . ing powder and sift Woman's World By Mair M. Morgan ---- =) Prosperity Is coming around the corner this year. Hundreds of pa- tient engaged people will make June tingle with wedding bells. Now Is the time to fete the bride, and show. ers are more popular than ever. Linen and kitchen showers give the bride a few more lovely, interesting things for her home. The kitchen shower gives the professional touch for her new career and a convenient filing box for recipes is always smart. Instead of autographs, each guest brings a favorite recipe for the box-- "food for remembrance." Fresh new vegetables give the : luncheon shower hostess an oppor- tunity to combine color and flavor in a springtime fathion. Cream of mushroom or watercress soup, fol. lowed with chicken timbales and fresh asparagus, give a delicately balanced meal. Instead of bread or rolls, these new muffins are delicious. 1 3-4 cups cake flour. 2 teaspoons baking powder. 4 tablespoons butter ov other short ening. 14 teaspoon salt, 4 tablespoons sugar, | ] 8-4 cup milk. 1 egg, well beaten, RY sift flour once, measure, add bak- fng powder and salt, and sift again. Cream butter, add sugar, and cream 'together thoroughly. Add egg, then _ flour, alternately with milk, a small amount at a time. Beat after each addition until smooth, Dake in: greas- "ed muffin pans in h't oven (4500.F.) 20 minutes. Makes 18 small muffins. Little cakes, in rainbow frostings-- * #petits fours"'--add much to the dec- orative touches at luncheon .and tea. They are perfect for "bride-y" par- ties, and not .difficult to make from this recipe. It is important to use cake flour to get the proper texture in the batter so that cake will not crumble when frosted. Rainbow Petits Fours 1 2-3 cups cake flour. ".. 1% teaspoons baking powder. 1-3 cup butter or other shortening. 1 cup sugar. 2 eggs, well beaten. 1% cup milk. 1 teaspoon lemon or vanilla extract. Sift flour once, measure, add bak- together three times. Cream butter 'horoughly, add sugar gradually, and cream together "until light and fluffy. Add eggs, then 'flour, alternately with milk, a small amount at a time. Beat after each addition until smooth. Add flavoring. Pour into tiny greased cup-cake tins or paper cups fillin, 2-3 full. Bake in moderate oven (3500.F.) 20 to 26 min. utes. Makes 2 dozen cup cakes. When cool, frost with rainbow icings. Orange Petits Fours , 1 tablespoon quick-setting orauge jelly powder. ~~ 214 tablespoons orange juice. 1 tablespoon butter, melted. - 2 cups confectioners' sugar. Grated rind 1-2 orange. 1 egg yolk. . 1-8 teaspoon salt, 4 Combine jelly powder and orange juice in top of small, deep double boiler, or in bowl. Place over boiling water and stir until dissolved. Add butter, salt, sugar, orange rind and egg yolk. Stir vigorously until soft and of right" consistency to pour. Drop small cakes into frosting, turn- ing until all sides are covered. Re- move cakes from frosting with a fork. 'Place on-rack to cool. Garnish with nuts, fruits, or dellcately tinted" co- conut, in the long southern style shreds. Makes 2-3 cup frosting. For pink strawberry frosting, use 1 tablespoon lemon or strawberry jelly powder and 3 tablespoons fresh straw- berry juice. For lemon frosting, use 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1 table- spoon lemon jelly powder and 2 tablespoons water. : Lime jelly powder that dissolves in warm_water gives a lovely green tint, Combine 1- tablespoon lime jelly jelly powder with 3 tablespoons warm water in top of small, deep double boiler or bowl. Place over . boiling water and 'stir "until dis- solved. Add 1 tablespoon melted butter, dash of salt, and 1 2-3 cups confectioners' sugar. = Proceed as with orange frosting. ; Thése "petit fours" have a smooth glossy appearance and the icing is of splendid flavor--not- that thick sugary type. : i EGG "LEFT-OVERS" When you have whites of eggs left over don't forget to make them iuto meringues or macaroons. This can be done whenever you have the time and both of them :will keep in au air-tight tin for some time, & If you want to use egg-whites and not the yolks, remember that the y yolks will keep for a little while if they are left in cold water, NON-STICKING CAKES To prevent cake from sticking to the tins after haking, grease the tins with unsalted fat and then dust lightly with flour. Shake out all flour that has not stuck to the grease and pour in the batter. The cake. will come out beautifully clear, LINE THE POCKETS The pockets on children's sweaters are always the first things to go and if mother will just put a lining of strong cloth in the pockets when the sweater is new, they will not stretch out of shape or wear out until the entire sweater is beginning to go. MINT There's a bed of mint in the corner of the garden and we watch eagerly for the first sprigs. Although for su "long, mint has been associated with lamb as if they were blood brothers, the flavorsome sprig may be used in many combinations with equal success. Why not, for instance, try mint and new cabbage? One tablespoon minced mint leaves added to one cup crisped shredded cabbage and the whole dressed with oil and lemon juice makes an unusual and delicious salad, or you may. stuff tomatoes with the combination. : Cucumbers sprinkled with fresh iinced int leaves are appetizing and novel, MINT IN FRUIT CUPS All fruit cups are given an allur- fs among the assembled ingredients, Sometimes merely leaves in the 'bowl in which a fruit salad or fruit cup is mixed gives as ferred mixed with the fruit for a definite mint flavor. . It's a good 'idea to make up mint syrup to keep on hand for fruit cups and' what not. You. may bottle the syrup and keep it for use when mint is not in season, This syrup may be used to make jelly and ice and makes a delicious drink com- bined with lemon juice and ginger ale. : MINT SYRUP Two cups minced mint leaves, 2 cups sugar, 1 3-4 cups vinegar, 1 3-4 cups water, 1% teaspoon salt. When you make this up to use immediately for fruit cups omit the vinegar and add lemon juice as you use it. > Mince leaves, coverrwHiy-sigst and pound with a wooden potato masher. Add salt, vinega:s. and water and bring to the boiling point. Let sim- mer about fifteen' minutes, until the mixture is syrupy. Pour into steril- ized jars and seal. : MINT JELLY Mint jelly is preferred by many persons to mint sauce to serve with lamb. An attractive way to serve it is to mould it in tiny individual moulds and turn cut each on a slice of orange. Be sure to wash the orange before cutting it in slices.

GOLDEN TEXT.--We must all be made manifest hefore the judgment seat of Christ.--2 Cor. 5:10. TIME--Tuesday, April 4, A.D., 80, three days before the crucifixion. PLACIE--The Mount of Olives, PARALLEL PASSAGE--There is none. "But when the Son of man shall come in hig glory." What a contrast to the lowly guise in which the Son of man first presented himself to-the world. "And all the angels with him." The vast host of his messengers, re- spiendent and beautiful, singing his praises. "Then shall he sit on the sig] of his glory." The kingdoms of the world, falsely promised him by Satan -in the temptation, will then in- deed belong to him, and the king- dom of heaven as well. ; . "And before him shall be gathered all the nations." In the last hour of his earthly ministry, Jeusu of Naz- areth commands the' view of an im- measurable horizon. d "And he shall separate them one from another, as the shepherd separ- ateth the sheep from the goat-" The Scriptures often employ sheep to de- note those who trust in God, and so the goats or kids are here naturally taken to represent the worst side. "And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, and the goats on his left. The first lesson we learn from this parable is then, that we shall all be julged when, we die by the Son of man and the second, that we ought to be very glad that we shall be judged, and judged by him. : "Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand." Christ has rep- resented himself as a shepherd; and now he represents himself as a king then shall he sit on the throne of his going back to his opening sentence, glory. "Come ye blessed of my Fath- er." Our Lord in the last judgement will be acting as the agent of his Ia- ther, and will bestow his award of blessing only upon those whom his Father hold blessed. 'Inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world." The plan of salvation has its roots from the dawn of time. "For I was hungry, and ye gave me to eat." He lived on the grateful gifts of those to whom he had ministered, those to whom he had given new life. "I was thirsty, and ye gave me to drink. "We have one instance, the Sa- maritan woman, at Jacob's well from whom he begged a drink of water. "I was a stranger and ye took me in." Remember our Lord's pathetic say- ing about. the foxes that had holes and birds that had nests," while the son of man had not where to lay his head. "Naked and ye clothed me; I was sick, and ya visited me; I was in pri- son, and ye came unto me." We enter the kingdom of heaven, not hy say- ing, Lord, Lord, but by doing his will, not by repeatisg prayers in his name so much as by feeding the hungry clothing the naked, visiting. the sick, and the imprisoned. "Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee hungry and fed thee? or athirst, and gave thee drink? This homely excel- lence, thus sublimely rewarded, is of an uncounted and unconscious kind. They who have it ~re surprised at a praise, which they never thought of, and feel that there must be some mis: take about it. 'And when saw we thee a stranger, ete," There is some mistake, they feel and they will not take advantage of a mistake, even to gain entrance into the kingdom of heaven. They will not enter under the cloak of some one else's good deeds. They are far too honest for that. "And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you." The principle is so important that it receives one of Christ's char- acteristics emphases. "Inasmuch as ye did it unto one of these my breth- ren, evca these least, yet did it unto me." The King of Glory unites his When a child is very tired he's just like any one else, Nerve weariness ac- con.panies muscular weariness and wzhen this happens, he is no more re- sponsible for his conduct than we are .under like conditions, Observe the good child at the end of the day. Much bad behaviour occurs after the sun. gets toward the west, There is a difference between bad conduct and tired conduct, but too few parents realize it. The child taken shopping is anoth- er example. He, or she, will very like- ly be a regular Fauntleroy, or little Eva, during the first half of the ex- cursion. Then when he is both phy- sically and nervously -tried, he is likely to put on a performance that shocks and embarrasses his mother Perhaps he only whines or gets ob- streperous, but scarcely a mother lives who hasn't had some experience of the kindg NEED OF RELAXATION Children need sleep all they can get, and, if it is possible a rest dur- ing the day. They don't need to nap necessarily, but just to lie down quietly for a little while and rest the bones. How long this is kept up de- pends upon the condition of the child cause with that of the lowest of his followers. "Then shall he say also unto them op the left hand." Here followss per- haps the most terrible of all words spoken by Christ. "Depart from me ye cursed, into the eternal fire which is prepared for the devil and his an- gels. Eternal fire is a vivid picture of the endless consequences of unre- pented and unforgiven sin. "For I was hungry, and ye did not give me to eat, etc Sins of commission are as deadly as sins of commission. "Then shall they also answer, say- ing, Lord, when saw we thee hungry,' These also, like those on se right hand of. Christ, declare unconscious- ness; but they declare falsely, while the first declare truthfully.. "Then_shal] he answer them." In terms such as he used for those on his right, but how fearfully changed by that one word; 'not'. "Verily, 1 say to you, inasmuch as ye did it not unto one of these least, ye did it not unto me." Nothing great required of them, only ministrations to "one of these least." They had not been ask- ed to go beyond their easy powers and simple resources. But if they had done what they could, they would would have been doing it to Christ they would have won thereby the et- ernal life. "And these shall go away into eter- nal punishment: but the righlecous into eternal life." benevolent, he is righteous and holy and true; and if his truth and holi- ness require the everlasting punish- ment of sin, his benevolence will not prevent it. . Wedding Costumes Gayer For Bride New York.--Wedding costumes ave getting gayer, not only for the brides: maids, but for the brides. This is partly because it is spring, but also because brides of today want a wider choice than the traditional satin and orange blossoms. Satin is still being worn, hut or gandy and other cotton fabrics aie being seen in weding gowns. edls are shorter and head-.dretses more varied. z As for bridesmaids, they are going in for color in a big way. Red velvet, navy blue, cloth of silver, and other unlikely fabrics and colors are suc- ceeding to the baby blue and spring green of other years. One wedding gown of modernistic severity suggests a nurse's uniform. It is made of heavy white crepe, with a high neck that swathes the throat, long sleeves, and a draped bodice. The off-the-face cap is rather like a nurse's, but the lavish tulle veil and the formul bouquet remind gone that the bride is, no nurse. jod--is not. only 'l Serve hot. ten or twelve need this after school relaxation, if only for half an hour.

Vegetarian Dishes Are Suggested Pie and Cutlets Offer Solace to Hunger for Sturdy Food i To those on a strict vegetarian diet, there comes a definite hun-! ger for soraething sturdier; the cook- ing of the vegetables in baked loaves | or pies, or as cutlets will usually give the much hungered-for flavor. For | example this pie: Two onions, two carrols, one table- spoon tapioca, one teaspoon flour; pepper and salt to taste, one stalk of | "celery; one half-cup mushrooms; one half cup string beans; one, half cup] peas, one tablespoon butter. Cut all the vegetables in small pieces; cook them and all the other ingredients in! enough salted water to cover, until the vegetables are soft. Then pour the mixture into a pie dish. Cover with | yich pie crust and bake in a hot oven. 400 degrees until the pastry is done. BREAD AND NUT CUTLETS One tablespoon butter; one tea- spoon flour, one cup milk; two cups dried bread crumbs; one cup of wal nut meats chopped; one teaspuon of chopped onion; pepper and salt; one egg; deep fat for the frying. Blend the butter and flour together in.a-deep saucepan. Then add the milk. Mix together the crumbs, nuts onions, and seasonings and put them slowly through the meat grinder. Stir them slowly into the milk and' cook for ten minutes. Then add the egg, well beaten. Turn the mixture into a dish.*When cool form into cro- quettes, put them in the coldest part of the refrigerator to become stiff. Roll them in egg and cracker crumbs and fry in deep hot fat. The popularity of the Dutch onion, exported from Holland to the var ious countries of Europe, is due in no small measure to the efficient grad- ing established by the Netherlands government, I ea .

Professor Gault believes in lip. reading and all the other means of teaching the deaf by way of the eye, He is also sure that the flow of melody of speech can. never be taught thus, The staccato, monoto nouns speech of most deaf people he attributes to overemphasis upon the correct placing of organs in pro- ducing particular sounds. The cannot make the necessary correcs tions adequately, Goed speech-read- ers are rare, tor the simple reason that the movements of the human face, tongue amd larynx are so ra. pid, so subtle, often so impercept hie that they cannot be readily follow. ed, Asx a result the deal man who relies on his eyes alone must infer a good deal--jump at meanings. Work of the Teletactor. With his teletactor Professor Gault overcomes most of these difficulties, Trained by its ctrong vibrations, the fingers become new sense organs--- learn to interpret sound almost as well as if they were ears. The teletactor is a modified tele phone receiver but with a powerful means of amplifying vibrations, The teacher (or for that matter a deaf pupil bent on self-improvement) talks into a highly sensitive microphone of the radio kind. lis voice, con- verted Into electrical impulses, is car- ried to the fingers and tremendously amplified. There may be as many a3 forty receivers in a classroom. The deaf learner puts his hand or a finger on the receiver. He feels the vibra tions, learns to associate them with words, . In the State School for the Deaf at Jacksonville, 111. for example, each pupil has a receiver-or vibrator at his de: k, on which he rests his fing- ers, and a microphone. The teacher also has a microphone. She can talk to the whole class by making all (he receivers vibrate 'at once. By throwing the proper gwiteh she can let any one pupil speak, while his thirty-nine classmates listen with thelr fingers. If any one thinks he can do better than Tommy, who hap- pens to be speaking, he is at-liberty to try. Thus a healthy rivalry is aroused, which cultivates a desire to watch and feel and to talk correct ly. + Strong 'Sound Vibrations. What Professor Gault has done ia to heighten the efliciency of the fing- ers in feeling sound vibrations, They already feel much, but not enough [ when it comes to the sounds of very high pitch, which at best are usually lost to any but young normal ears. Provide an apparatus which will mul- tiply the intensity of sound vibra. tions a thousand times, and it is ciear that the fingers can distinguish sub- tleties that would otherwise be 'loet. it is like bringing a distant object acarer by means of a telescope. Take a word like "typewriter"or "recognition." Aided by the eletac- tor the fingers mark the accented syllables munch more easily than is possible' with the eye. So it Is with noting the accented words and the cadences of sentences, The eye tells little ov. nothing about loudness or intensitias of vibrations, But. the Leletactor. distinguithes clearly in either respect. [asily recognized gound patterns are formed, The deat pupil leains to taik with a more natural intonation than if he were left to make hig inferences trom the eye alone. [In fact, teletac tion tends to do for a deaf man's manner of speaking what a year in England does for those who hear. He acquires what we call an accent. And most astonishing of all, Profes- gor (aull's recent work shows that ev acquire the feel of music to play the piano with pass and learn abla toch- nique.
