I Woman's World By Mair M. Morsan Pointers On Pies Chocolate .Mciingrue Pie with a flaky, tender crust, is the star of this silent movie.

Chocolate Meringue Pie Canadians need desserts rich in heat and em^rgy during the .snappy, cold days of v.- liter and early spring. Chocolate Meringue I'ie is one of the most delii-iouj of the.se dessilts with its gi.'v! lining, and perfect pastry. Perfect |i;isl?y is the basis of all good pies and it is easily made by the new meth'ni of using a (iiie cake flour to give a light, llaky crust. One of til- first rule? in pastry making is to use cold ingredients and handle them lightly. A second important pointe is ti> i se \vat!r cautiously. Too many cooks dump llu water on the flour and shortening mixture, then have to knead and handle a soggy doLgh mixture and this is one of the coiniiKiiK >t causes of tough pastry. Tile best way to add water is to fpriiikle I teasjioon of cold water over • portion of nrxture and toss to- gether lightly with a fork â€" just enough to make it hold together â€" then leave it. Add water to another portion anii form another damp ball. Continue until all flour is dampened, then wrap doiii.h in wa.xed paper and chill thoroughly. Thi' finest plain pastry is made from this simple recipe. 2'.4 cups -ifted cake flour '/â- J teaspoon salt 2-3 cup cold shortening 1-3 cup cold water (about) Sift flour once, measure, add salt, • n<l sift again. Cut in shortening until peces are about the size of •mall peas. Add water, a small •mount at a time, mixing lightly with fork. Handle as little as pos- sible. Wrap in waxed paper, chill thoroughly. Roll out on slightly flour- ed board. Bake pastry in hot oven (4;)0 degrees K.). Makes enough pastry for one t)-iuch two-ciust pie, or fifteen 3',{. inch tart shells.

Combine sugar, flour add salt; and gradually to chocolate mixture and cook until thickened, stirring conetantly; then continue cooking 10 minutes, stirr'iig occasi- onally. Pour small amount of mix- ture over egg >olks, stirring vigor- ously; return to double boiler and cook 2 minutes longei. Remove from boiling water; add butter and vanilla. Cool. Turn into pie shell. Beat egg whites until foamy throughout; add sugar, . tabiespoouF at a time, beat- ing after each addition until sugar is blended. The continue beating until mixture will stand in peak.-i. Pile lightly on filling. Bake in moderate oven (350 degrees F.) 15 minutes, or until delicately browned. Winter Diet In tlie old day.s of sailingi^iiiiis 71icn men were at sea for month.s at a lime, barrels of sauerkraut were usually part of the ship's stores as a safe- guard against scurvy â€" that wastng disease caused only by lack of fresli vegetables and eating no fresh njeat, says Jessie Mario De Both. The ship's cooks, even in those days, knew that a varied diet, with a propei- bal- ance between foods, was vital to health. The modern liome-maker, with fac lities and a range of vegetables, fruits, meat, fish, and fowl, at her command even in mid-winter, which a (lueen could not have bought with the crown Jewels a hundred years ago, is still no diffeicnlly situated from the queen's chef or the ship's cook when it comes to providing licr f;iniily with a balanced diet. The modern himio-makcr imist pay even more attention to the subject, because today her family are leading mostly an indoor life. It takes real thought and planning to prnvidi- the correct diet for that. The best way is to plan nicals for the ent're week, building each day progressively from break fas I tliiougii dinner, and then linking each day to the next day's meals. There must be some bulk and roughage.

THE LKS.SOX IN ITS SETTLNG Time â€" All the events in this chap- tor occwrrt.'d in Xovi mbtr-l»eci mu'i' A.D., 29. Place â€" l^eiaen, as in l.bo preceiL ing lesson. '•And it camo to pass, as ho wa.-^ praying In a certain place, that when ho eea.sed. one of his disciples said unto him. Lord, teach u."! to pr.iy.'' T'hcy had no doubt enlerfiii into a life of prayer at the beginning of their fellowship with Jc«u?, with great eanustnesH and perhaps with faith- ful regularity, but, as persecution and mi.siinderstundlng arose, as the first thrill of their discipleahip passed, and the burdens of their ministry be. Clime heavier, their praytr life may easily have bf^come mechanical. "And ho said unto them." The fol- lowing prayer has been divided into two parts. The first has been called "The Purposes of God," the second •lias been ealied "The Pilgrimage of Man.^' "When ye pray, say. Father. " In the Old Testament God is .xeldoin spoken of as Father, and, then. In lefereuce to the nation Israt), not to the Indi- vidual (Dent. 32:6; Isa. 6^:10; J< r. 3:1, 19; 31:9; Mai. 1:6; 2:1U). Thus t'he Lord Jesus really gives to in»^n. for their lifo of fellowship with God u new name. "Hallowed be thy name.'' The nam<' of God expresses the character of God. To hallow- ills name means to treat as holy, to voner.ate (1 Pet. 3:15 Isa. 2!):2:u. "Thy kiugdom come." The earth Is the very centre of God's king- dom. It is here that he bad proposed to reveal his glory In the ages to come. Jesus is to be King over all the larth and to sit on the throne of his lather David. This Is the true and nl- tim.ite meaning of the iirayer, "thy kingdom come." "Give u« day by day our dally bread." We migiit tranclate tho first phrase, literally "coniinu*.- giving to us.'' The petition Includes more than that of the ouo in Matthew, whero, interpreting literally, iho peliticju i'^ for bread "for the coming day." In Luke, the petition might he par:i. phrased: "Continually givv us <lay by day our bread for tho coming day. "And forgive us oar sins: for we ourselves also forgive every one that in indebteil to us." Soino one says. That is not tho ground of grace and thnt doe.H not belong to us Let It be reniemb'red that Jecus did not gl^e that prayer to men outside the King- dom. He gav.< that to nun inside the Kingdom If I go to a man ,?ntsMe, steeped in sin, T do not say, if you promise to frfrgive, you will be for. given. The man outside gets his for- giveness with no condition, whe:i he pniys, but. once he Is in the kingd <ni he does not get forgiveness unless -iie is ready to forgive, unless he has f>i:-. given. "And bring us not into tcm[it;i- lloii." Temptation \s> sointtimes spo- ken of in Scripture as coming from God, sometimes as coming f;oi;u Sa- tan. God tempts no mat; to evil, b-.t for good: he tries and tests, jis he tcnipttd .Abraham and r.he children of Israel in the wilderness. Satan tempts unto evil; he tri,\c to ini'usf evil iti'n the human mind. ".And he said unto t>ieni. Which of you shall have a friend, and shall go unto him at midnight, and say tohin, '•'riend. lenil me three loaves." In the Orient, to avoid heat, travel is often engaged In at night When the books are opened, it will h'- discovered that more imporiimatc and prevailing prayer has been offtred at midiiig.'u than at all the other hours of the day and ni.ght taken together. "For a friend of mine i.s eonie to me rom a Journey, and I have nothing to set before him." Even the deep»st poverty wa.i not held to excuse the primary Eastern virtue of hospitality. -And he from within shall auswi.i W.F. and say. Trouble w not." It tu the trouble that he minds, not tihe fart- ing with the bread. It is the inoMi «t a man made heartless and selflP* by comfort, ('omfort.ibb; people, we kanw are apt to be hard-hearted. •'The door is now shut." The â- »»!- ern doors were not so easily ofcaed as are tihuse of our northern ha*efl,' where all one ufteds to do is to taM a key in the lock and lake hold ot a knob. "And my children are witfc â- « ill bed; I cannot rise an<l give ftee." In Oriental homes, frequently the members of entire families would sl( ep in the siwue room. "I say iiuto you, Though he wHl Bot rise and give him because he Is his friend, .vet because of his Importun. ity." The English '.vord importunity cemes from the adjective importune, which in turn comes from a Latin word meaning unfit, unsuitable, trou- blesome, grievous and hence means tho condition of be'ng unscaoonable or inoppoi-tune and in this case, trou- blesome pertinac'ty in solioitatioa. "He will ariso and give him as .many as \u: needeth." Possibly tile n!an'.i generosity may have been in- creased by his own conviction that he had, up to this point, arted moat eel- fishW. "And [ say unto you." The "P' here is emphatic. The samo voice In the preii-diiig verso introduces a 0t4te- ment based upon t.ho natural reason, but the voice In this verso introducfg a statement based upon the deftalte authority of the Lord Jesus, w-ho alone cau make i)romises to men conoern- ing the effectualness of tiieir prayers before the throne of grace. "Ask and it shall be given unto you; seek, and ye shall find; knock and It shall he opened unti) you." These three terbs are in thf^ i)resent Imperative aad mean continue asking. John ld:H4; Matt. 21:22; Mark 11:34. Tor every one that askv'lh rocciv- eiti; and he that seel^eth fiudeth; and to him that kiiocketh it shall be op- ened.''

Or il he shall a.--k an egg, will be give hini a ."corplon." Similar words were BjKiken by oiiv Lord in his Sermon on the .Mount (Matt. 7:9-11. The appeal ot the Lord Jesus here is to perscnal ex- perience. "If y^1 then, hiing evil, know how to give good gifts unto your clilldrOD, how much more shall your Heavenly Falrlivr give the Holy Spirit to thtijn that ask hinC" It is evident, that none of tho discip'.is. with the pos- sible exception of .Mary of Bethany, asked ivr t.he Spirit in the faith Of this promise.
