Crisp, golden waffles delight one from breakfast to the after-theatre party and even have a place in. the main course or dessert. Rice waffles and creamed chicken or creamed fish, plain waffles and maple syrup or honey; waffles and crushed berries; chocolate waffles and whipped cream and later in the sea- son, green. corn waffles, are just a few of the luscious combinations pos- sible. And most important, waflles may always be made at the last minute, 80 they hold first rank of. emergency dishes. Because waffle batter is a pour batter, it's much more convenient to mix it in a pitcher and pour it on the waffle iron rather than dip it with a spoon from a mixing bowl. ' The lipped bowls are attractive and easier to beat-in thes a straight- sid- ed pitcher. WIPE, DON'T WASH Never wash a waffle: iron! - The metal must be seasoned before using, but after that, even this material should not be washed. After each ~baking wipe with soft paper and re-. move all crumbs with a stiff brush kept for the purpose. Plain waffles with creamed salon and fresh peas make a delicious hr for a summer noon when the weather suddenly turiis cool.

Increase flour to 1% cups and soda of 2-3 teaspoon. _ Pineapples always may be relied upon to furnish the perfect finishing touch to menus, Before you use fresh pineapple in any way, be sure to give it a thor- ough seribbing with a stiff brush. 'The extremely rough skin makes a germs. - Pick Good Ones ~ It's easy to select fine fruit when marketing, 'because pineapples have few: imperfections. The size of the fruit really has little .to do with its quality. Pound for pound, one .pine- apple yields about the same percen- tage of edible material as another. An even golden. color denotes full ripening. Pull the leaves from the crown, too. They should pull easily and be,white some distance up from the base. Notice this whiteness par- ticularly, because unless you are the first person who has tried to pull out the leaf, several previous tweaks may have loosened it so that it does' come easily for you and you will be fooled. Notice the fragrance, too. Never choose fruit that is hard and green looking unless it is to be kept for several days before using. Over-ripe pineapples are. soft and frequently have black spots on 'their The vitamin content i considers good, comparing ~favorab oranges, - This is worth keeping tho mind, because as oranges become. scarce and high in "price, pineapples make a good substitute, ~~ To Prepare For Table' * There's one. precaution about get: ting fruit ready for the table. te sure that every. bit of the skin: an eyes. are ' removed. There's an astringent in the skin, and 'eyes that often makes the mouth sore. The easiest. way .to handle the fruit is to cut it in inch slices after washing. Then: pare off the skin and dig odt Remove the hard core in the centre and cut the flesh in. dice, or shred if preferred. * If you sprinkle the fruit with sugar at least an hour: before serving, the flavor will be more delicate and the sweetness. penetrates through the fruit.

PLACE.--Principally in the city of Jerusalem, and, particularly, in the temple. "And the king sent, and they gathered unto him &ll the elders of Judah and of Jerusalem." Although the king had received an answer which was favorable only in its bearing on himself, his first care was to bring together the entire people, to make them acquainted with the law-book, to lead them to repent, and so to avert, as far as possible, the threatened punish- ment." : "And the king went up to the house of Jehovah." The most appro- priate place for the reading of the law of God, and a place where great multitudes could easily be gathered together. "And all the men of Jud- ah 'and all the inhabitants of Jeru- salem with him, and the priests, and the prophets." And all the people, both small and great." That is, both high and low; cf, Ps, 49:2, "And he read in their ears all the words of the book of the covenant which was found in the house of Jehovah." For a similar occasion see Nehemiah 8. » "And the king stood by the pil- lar." Or, on a: raised platform (cf. 11:14; 2 Chron. 6:13). "And made a covenant before Jehovah, to walk after Jehovah, and to keep his com- mandments, and his testimonies, and his statutes." He did not make a new covenant, but he renewed his determination to keep 'the covenant which, long before, his forefathers had entered into with God. "With all his heart, and all his soul." See, especially, Deut. 4:29; Matt. 22:37. With all your heart, and with all your soul, means the bringing of yourself together resolutely, in your endeavor to seek after God. That is the condition of getting back, "To confirm the words of this covenant that were written in this book: and all the people stood to the coven- ant." They all took the same pledge as the king. "And the king commanaed Hil- kiah the high priest, and tne priests of the second order." The younger and subordinate priests. "And the keepers of tha threshold." The Lev- ites whose duty it was to guard the temple, "To bring forth out of the temple of Jehovah all the vessels that were made for Baal." The sun- god, to whom human sacrifices were offered to appease his anger in time of plague (2 Kings 16: 8; 21:6). Baal worship had been revived by Manasseh, 2 Kings 21:3. "And for the Asherah." The name of a goo- dess. whose worship was derived from Assyria, a goddess of fertility, The moon and tars, also objects of pagan wor- ship. "And he burned them without Jerusalem in the fields of the Kid- von, and carried the ashes of them unto Beth-el." While it need not be assumed that the king actually made the fire and burned them him- self, he was the one whose order was responsible for their destruction, and he no doubt personally super- vised such work. Nothing could have been more thorough than the reformation which Josiah undertook, especially as re- gards external matters. Only God himself, by his Spirit, can change the human heart, 'but a man with great power can bring about a vast change in the external conditions prevailing among those people over whom he has jurisdiction, "And the king commanded all the people, saying, Keep the passover unto Jehovah your God, as it is written in this book of the coven- ant." The ordinance of the passover is given in Deut. 16:1-8. "Surely there was not kept.such a passover from the days of the judges that judged Israel, nor in all the days of the kings of Israel, nor of the kings of Judah." Seripture records that the passover was kept the second year after the exodus (Numbers 9:1-5), and then nat again until the Israelites had entered the Promised Land (Josh. 5:10). After that, special celebrations of the pass- over are only mentioned once dur- ing the reign of Solomon (2 Chron. 8:13), again under that of Heze- kiah- (2 Chron. 30:15), at the time of Josiah Laggbere), and once more after<fit"rétirn from Babylon under Fzra (Ezra 6:19), "But in the cighteenth year of king Josiah was this passover kept to Jehovah in Jerusalem." It was in the eighteenth year that the temple and the land were cleansed from all symbols of idolatry, and that the great passover was held.

This is the contention of Carole Lombard, Hollywood star, : "The romance. a woman inspires, the passion she engeuders, the havoc of hearts she wrecks, is always ac complished chiefly with her eyes" Carole Insists, "Love'y aands, air that light. lovely looks, are important, but pret. ty eyes are most important, All the laws, not only of coquetry, but charm and sincerity, are dependent them, » y effective because of their have a di:tinguished voice, a fetch. ing accent, an adorable figure, but a beautiful pair of eyes will do more to get you a chance In motion pic. tures than any other attribute."

In discu:sing the Canadian attitude towards men of letters, Mr, MacDon- ald expressed himself as delighted with the honoring of Charles G. D. Roberts with a knighthood.
