He 1s rather critical of some of the smaller Kingston orchestras. The item In this colimn referred rather to the work done by Kingston choruses and as-the editor of the Woman's Page is also the musical critic of the Whig and has heard all the large musical productions put on in the efty for some years, she is in a position to judge, in as far as she has ability to, the material avilable in King- ston for the production of a chorus of men and women's voices, Since October, when the Rotary Club put on a very creditable performance, followed by one equally good under the auspices of the Kiwanis Club, we have had two more musical perform- TUESDAY, JANUARY TOMORROW'S MENU Breakfast Oranges Cereal Griddlecakes Sausages Toast Coffee Luncheon Baked Rice and Cheese Wholewheat Bread Lettuce Jam Tea Dinner Lamb Stew (with Peas, Potatoes, Celery) Dumplings Fruit Salad Cup Custards Coffee Answered Letters, Mrs. W.: "Some time ago you published a recipe for Wholewheat Bread which was fine. I used it but then lost it. Will you kindly re- print it?" Answer: Wholewheat Bread: Scald one dup of sweet milk and let cool glightly, then turn it into a mixing bowl with one teaspoon of butter, one-half tea-spoon of salt and one-half teafpoon of sugar; when luke-warm add one-half cake of compressed yeast which has been dissolved in one-third cup of tepid water. Then stir in three cups of the wholewheat flour, mixing well but not kneading. Cover the bow! and let rise till double in bulk. Now turn it out onto a floured board and knead only enough to form it into fwo loaves. Place these in two small greased pans and when al- lowed to rise till again double ih bulk, bake in a hot oven for 30 minutes. This bread requires be- tween four and five hours to make, Many housekeepers prefer to make it in the daytime, having it ready for night dinner. Miss T.: "How can I clean a dark blue charmeuse dress?" Answer: With gasoline, but not near heat or flame. If the dress is npt very badly.soiled, merely apply a little gasoline to the spots by means of a dampened cloth. Other- wise give it a gasoline bath in a basin which contains at least a gal- lon of the gasoline. Have another basin of the Auld at hand to rinse the dress in. * Hang the ' garment out-of-doors till the odor has eva- porated, then press. 4 I generally ad- vise my readers, however, to let a professional cleansing establish- ment do work of this sort for I have found from personal experience that the garment is like new when pro- fessionally cleaned: (Note: To wash the dress in gasoline, merely souse it up and down to loosen the dirt. Use no soap). Constant Reader: "Don't you think it would be interesting if some of our Housekeeper Readers told us their ways of making apple ples? But I hope they'll give the time of baking and how hot an oven should be, and all those little details, which experienced cooks often omit!" Answer: I think it would be ex- tremely interesting. Apple ple sees to be the favorite variety in most households. If our readers will re- spond we should have some flaky ple-crust recipes. Tomorrow -- How To Make Ris- soles.

Many of the owners to- day are widows and daughters who have inherited the farms, and some of the stories of how they are 'mak- ing good' are worth telling here as well as in their own country, \ "Ope of these women is Mary Ah- derson, who started to work in Sas- katchewan with her father and mother about 12 years ago; she per- suaded her father, who had come be- fore them and who then possessed a few cattle, to go in for better cattle.
