Baby specialists endorse Fletcher's Cas- toria; and millions of mothers know how this purely-vegetable, harmless preparation helps babies and children, with colic, constipa- tion, colds, diarrhea, etc. The Fletcher signature is always on the wrapper of genuine Castoria.

The armories was gaily dec- orated with garlands and stream- ers of double blue and gold. The orchestra alcove, which harbored Jimmy Harrison and his orchestra, was a riot of the three Regiment colors. On a gray and black mod- ernistic background streamers of the two blues and gold were draped, while the front of the platform was also decorated with the same colors. The platform proper was lighted with floor lamps. Excellent dance music was furnished by the orchestra. In addition to the decorations the scene was made colorful by the military uniforms of the colonels, lieutenant-colonels and sergeants, The evening gowns of the ladies were colorful and chic. Numerous shades of red predominated, while the pastel shades were also worn. For the most part the gowns were of the period style with long. flow- ing skirts. The programs were done in two shades of blue, with a gold cord attached. A number of extras were introduced and the dancing con- tinued until nearly four o'clock. A novelty balloon dance was the cause of a great deal of hilarity. A number of balloons were let down from the ceiling, in one of which was a lucky number. The holders of the lucky balloon were Mrs. M. E. Hartley and Mr. W. J. Trick. Mrs. Hartley received a bou- quet of Spring flowers. During in- termission supper was served, The patrons and patronesses were Honorary Colonel R. 8. Me- Laughlin' and Mrs. McLaughlin, Lieutenant Colonel F.

The bride wore a becom- ing frock of poudre blue georgette. She was attended by Miss Agnes Walt, who wore a frock of blue crepe-de-chine. The groom was supported by Mr. Leonard Smith, Following the ceremony a recep- tion was held at the home of Mr. Leonard Smith, McLaughlin Boule- vard, when a wedding supper was served to a number of guests. Mr, and Mrs, Small will reside at 376 Celina street. A cake of good soap, or nail brush, a small bottle of hand lotion and a slice of lemon should occupy a small shelf at every sink. If housewives use them all when fin- ished with the dishes or cleaning house, they can easily preserve their hands' beauty. : = he Home - i The Women's Corner For Anything of Interest to the Homemaker and the Housekeeper Some people have the faculty of saving themselves a lot of work while others seem deliberately to go about making themselves a lot of unneces- sary trouble, The orderly housekeeper is the one who keeps things picked up, and as a result she does not need to do such an endless amount of cleaning. It is impossible to keep a disorderly home clean and attractive. The dust just naturally settles and litter collects, and things get thicker and thicker in spite of everything. Eternal vigilance in the way of looking ahead is the secret of the art of saving work. The other day a woman who had recently papered her front hall and had the stairs dressed over, decided that she wished to polish a black lea- ther handbag with some shoe dress- ing which she felt would serve the purpose catisfactorily. Being rather forgetful she set her bag and the bottle of polish at the head of the stairs, so that when she went down she would be reminded to take it along with her. But before she got ready to go, her small grandson, Bobbie, came run- ning through: the hall and the square little toe of his small shoe hit the bottle of polish with just - enough force to send it flying down the stairway. The loosely adjusted cork came out, and you can imagine the mess for yourself. The wall paper lace curtain on the window at the foot of the stairs, the stairs themselves, and the new, light tan rug just bought to honor the new decorations, were all liberally "em- broidered" with jet black guaranteed not to rub off. The case was hope- ss. Part of the hall had to be repap- ered, the rug sent to a cleaner, and still the spots though faded some- what, are perfectly visible, The cur- tain was ruined in the. attempted washing of it. Now, that woman has gone through life leaving things on stairs over which people fell and hurt themselves setting things down wherever she happened to be instead of putting those same things where they be- longed, and making herself work in endless ways. If she clears off the table, quite as likely as not she puts the food away in the dishes which came from the table instead of putting that food di- rectly into the containers in which it will be warmed or made into salad or what not. If she is sewing, she goes directly at that work perhaps leaving her breakfast dishes unwashed, her rooms undusted, and her beds unmade. Then visitors arrive and the whole house is in an uproar and she is very ner- vous and upset. Helpful Hints for Harassed Housewives Many plants die indoors because they have not enough fresh air. Keep the window near plants slight- ly open by inserting ome of the standard ventilators. » . - Many children are discouraged from eating because they are given too large portions. Cereal is twice as appealing to a child if served in a little brightly patterned cereal dish. h * * L Slice any leftover ham you have about an inch thick. Cover with sliced potatoes. Cover with milk, season and bake, adding enough milk to keep moist, * Ld . If you use a feather mattress on your bed smooth and straighten it, after shaking it up well and smooth- ing it with the hand, press it lightly with a yardstick, drawing it over the high places to even them. Run the long ruler over the mattress from side to side and from end to end. When the bed is made up it looks as smooth as a bed on which 'a smooth hair mattress is used. Business coats and frocks retain their freshness much more easily it their wearer brushes them care- fully each night, put them on hang- ers and Pinces them where a cur- rent of air passes through them. LJ CHEESE FONDU Two tablespoons flour, 3 cup grated cheese, 1 tablespoon butter, 2 eggs, salt, pepper, § cup milk. Melt the butter, add the flour, the milk gradually, stir until they boil; cool a little; add cheese, yolks and seasoning; fold in whites stiffly beaten, pour into tins. Bake 20 minutes. Serve hot. In making a fruit salad for com- pany, using a gelatine base stretches the amount of fruit and other in- gredients immeasurably. It is an excellent dish for Sunday night suppers. LJ LJ One of the long handled brashes, similar to those for cleaning milk bottles, proves indispensable in brushing the crumbs from the elec- tric toaster. YOUNG PEOPLE'S | SOCIETY MEETINGS LANTERN SLIDES AT ALBERT ST. LEAGUE The regular meeting of the Al- bert Street Young People's League was held last evening, and was opened with hymn and prayer, led by Mr. J. Naylor. Various business matters. were discussed. The first vice-president, Miss I. Brown ,conducted the remainder of the meeting. Scripturé was read by Miss R., Lee, and a duet was given by Mrs. Carkeek and Mrs. Williams. Miss L. Arnold con- tributed a solo. A few interesting lantern slides were shown. The meeting was closed with a hymn and benediction, : WELL-KNOWN WOMEN'S EDITOR LEAVES POST Edmonton, Alta, April 2.--Miss Edna Kells, for 17 years connected with the women's 'department of The Journal, and recognized as one of the foremost women's editors in Canada. is giving up the post, but will still remain active in journal- ism.

A shipment of twenty pairs of silver foxes was recently made by a British Columbia breeder to Swe- den, valued at $20,000. Another shipment of 30 pairs has been made to France. The province of New Brunswick is one of the first provinces to an- nounce its desire to take advantage of the new Farm Loan Act of the Canadian Government. Headache? PiNnknaM'S PHENRIN & NATURE NOTES Starlings' Chorus Singing, Bur. roughs" Day, Luminous Creatures Last Friday afternoon I heard a large flock of English starlings giv- ing a song festival in an orchard at Harmony, The starling sings more or less all the year, but his song is at its best in the spring months. He has no such melodious notes as distinguish many birds of the Old World; his merit lies less in the quality of the sounds he ut- ters than in their endless variety. In a leisurely way he will some- times ramble on for an hour, whist- ling and warbling very agreeably, mingling his finer notes with chat~ terings and cluckings and squeal- ings, and sounds as of snapping the fingers and of kissing, with many others quite indescribable. Wednesday, April 3rd is the 92 anniversary of John Burroughs's birth. The 70,000 members of the American Tree Association planted a tree in his memory .a few years ago.

Many blind creatures of the deep sea are provided with hair-like ap- pendages of a highly sensitive na- ture, by means of which they ap- parently feel their way about. The light that does exist depths below five hundred fathoms is not the light of day but a phos- phorescence or luminosity such as one gees at the surface occasionally. Some of these creatures have luminous globules on various parts of their bodies, which enable them to go through the deep waters much like a motor car on land, shedding a light beforethem on their path. says a writer jn the New York Times Magazine. Boys' and girls' seed ¢lubs have been organized in Manitoba, and there are now 23 such clubs under way.
