Ea La ; e cake ig baked in an oven / === Woman' ] World By MAIR M, MORGAN "A Woman's Place Is In the Home | Baked lolng « Last week you had a recipe for broil ed icing--this week we offer a delici- pus spice cakd.wth baked icing, 'Which calls for 1-egg white, % cup brown sugar, 3; cup broken nut meats. Beat egg whites until they "hold a point when the beater is pulled out of them, Add brown sugar, beating it in, Spread top of cage batjer, sprinkle on the nuts and bake in a moderate oven, 350 degrees F,, until the cake is done, which will be in approximately 36 minutes . if it. is in a pan 8 inches square. Make twice the:recipd for a larger cake, The cake is made as follows: Cream 3% cup shortening and add 1 cup brown sugar gradually, Add to the creamed mixture 1 whole egg end 1 egg yolk well beaten, Sift 11-3 cups cake flour once before measur- lng. Then sift together flour, 34 tea- spoon salt, 14 teaspoon soda, 1; tea- spoon' baking powder, 3% teaspoon cloves, ¥% teaspoon cinnamon and add alternately with 1% cup sour milk, Bour Into greased.and floured pan, Time, 86 minutes. Temperature, 350 deg. F. Moderate oven. Size of pan, 8 inches square. For a larger cake double the recipe. Another attractive way in which a baked icing may be-used is on thin layers of cake, which are cut in strips after baking, Theése cakelets are a delicious accompaniment to ice cream and many desserts, and they are es- pecially good with a cup of tea of cof- fee. The batter is spread about % Inch deep in the greased pans, the nuts are sprinkled on and then the thin is spread over the A registering 325 degrees I'. andthe strips are not cut 'until the cake is 'thoroughly cold. i A Serving Tip "When you are having a varlety of greens in a salad it is an excellent -'ldea to put all of them together in a . large bowl, Mix them with the dress- 'Ing at the table and serve the salad from the bowl, 2s Cold Baths This is the season of cold tubs for those of us who like an exhilarating bath in the morning. & Have you ever really tried them, tor a week, straight running? The first three are the hardest, but the -rest are almost inevitable. For you get to feeling you need that brisk pick-me- up as much as you do your morning toffee, to get started right. 'There are some women, women with .. weak hedrts, who would never try a cold shower. But-there are a lot who should, and don't, ~~ It you have tried a cold shower and + it doesn't work, to your way.of think- ing, try this. After a tepid shower, take a whole handful of kitchen salt, and give yourself a rub with it, quick- ly, an all-over rub. Then briskly. ruby yourself dry. This stimulates circula- tion and gets ou. in good form to start the day right. Too many women use their baths just for relaxation, A very hot bath in mornings {is enervating, You don' need relaxing after a night's sleep. You need awakening, That is where the cold shower is perfect You don't have to stay under long. Just a once-over will de the trick. 'For women whose flesh is soft and whose face's contour is no longer quite as. clearcut ag it formerly was, this cold shower daily does something to make the flesh firm. Moreover, as a prevention of colds, any doctor will tell you its real value. g Bottles and Bands Druggists are generous, and shower attractive wrappings and packets and bottles upon us with our purchases. Tablets and lozengers are no longer weighed out by the ounce and handed over in a thin white paper packet with a blob of sealing-wax at either end but are made up In neat little cartons, tubes or screw-top bottle, often wrap- ped up in a pamphlet orwhooklet bright- ly §howing forth the benefits of the| remedies they enclose, Tooth paste and toilet crea mg, too, throw in a sup- ply of reading™matter which is usual- ly attached to the tube by a rubber band, We are so much accustomed to these accmpaniments by now that they are generally thrown away at once; but ed in about an hour, .mandment, even if put aside for.a time they are apt to drift away, still unused, on the household tide of rubbish. Some, how- ever, could easily be out to useful pur- poses, How to Use Them It is a good plan fo put up a small screw hook somewhere in the kitchen and to keep. it specially for rubber bands, which are hung there as soon as they are removed from the packets. It is surprising how rapidly a collec- tion accumulates and how often and usefully the supply can be drawn up- on. It is much easier, for instance, to use a rubber band to secure a small packet to be taken to the shops than to find (In a hurry) a suitable length and thickness of string. Rubber bands are also handy for fastening the covers on jam jars or potted meats pots, for keeping a hasty bandage in place on a cut finger, for securing kitchen: lists and bills. ; Some of the little screw-top bottles and pots should also be washed apd saved. These will hold salt, tea, sugar, -even an individual jam ratfon, for pic- nics. Made mustard can go into a lit- tle cream pot (safely marked). Small quantities of seasoning and spices may be stored in them in the kitchen cup- board and save the untidiness of paper packages. Tin lozenge boxes are use- ful for the sanie purpose or for the desk drawer, where they hold paper clips, drawing pins and so on. In the tool drawer -they keep the different sizes of screws and nails neatly separ- ated. . . Spotted Net Curtains Spotted net curtaing should 1 allowed to.dry and .then be d ed down for ironing. They should- be rolled tightly ina thick cloth after 'they have heen washed and then iron- Iu this way they will come up crisp and fresh, Wash the curtains in lukewarm sétpy water, rinsing them in several bowls of cold water--Add a little borax to the finak rinsing water in preference to starch- ing, as this method will ensure the cur- t be | tains ironing fo just the right stiff- ness. Iron the curtains on several thicknesses of blanket to obtain the best effect with the spots. i Kitchen Kinks In cooking very sour fruit much less sugar is required if a litle salt is add- ed. The flavor will be improved. When ironing, keep beside you an old perfume spray containing water, to be applied to any part that has become too dry. This gives the even damp- ness and perfect condition necessary for a pleasing finish. When pouring fat into a basin, add 1 tablespoon of bol water, This will make;all-pleces-of eat sink to the bottom, and the dripping will he clear, Sheets often tear when .pogged to 'the line.by tlie corners, To prevent this, stitch a small length of tape at each corner, and peg these instead of the sheet. After washing ribbons, wind. them evenly arourid a bottle. Fill the bottle with hot water and cork it. The rib- bons will dry quickly and smoothly. A sliced banana -added to apples when they are stewed improves the flavor. To prevent milk from boiling over, rub the edge of the saucepan with a little butter. Vaseline rubbed, well into the nails at night will prevent them from split- ting and becoming brittle, --_---- JUDGING OTHERS. What is 'commonly wrong is to pass a judgment on our fellow-creatures. Never let it be forgotten that there fs scarcely a single moral action of a single man of which other men can have such a knowledge, in ita ultl- mate grounds, its surrounding inci: dents, and the real determining causes of its' merits, as to warrant their pronouncing a conclusive judg- ment upon it.--W, E. Gladstone, PARR TR Sa . DEBT. Debt comes under the eighth com- It hangs a millstone round the neck of the man or woman who incurs it." It corrodes honesty. Emer- son was wise when he wrote his terse couplet: : With thou seal up the avenues of ill?

Is the man that maketh Jehovah his trust.--Ps. 40: 4, : A THE PLAN OF THE LESSON. SUBJECT:: Caleb's Confidence, I, Caleb's "We Can," Num, 13. II, Caleb's Conquest, Josh, 14: I. Caleb's "We Can," Num, 13, The Exploration of Canaan. We are not told much about Caleb, but what woe are told is enough to give him a secure place among Bible immortals, and make him forever an inspiration to the world. For he was that glorious sight, a gallant and indomitable old man, fighting to the last in the most magnificent of causes, We méet him first at the close of the march across the desert from Sinai to the northern part of the wilderness of Paran, at Kadesh-Barnea, They had reached the borders of Canaan, the promised land, the goal ot their exodus from ByDpt, the one great hope of the nation, But they were not to advance upon its hastily, in a foqlhardy manner. A dark picture was uppermost fi their minds. They were terrified by the inhabitants of this rich territory. They were numerous and strong, the report was, and the spies enumerated their various tribes to indicate their strength, Their citles were fortided and very great. So went the doleful report, and POR went the hearts of the hearers. All their high hopes were crumbled in the dust. But there was a minority réport, the report of two, Caleb and Joshua; and Caleb, stilling the wailing of -the people, bravely made it. "Let us go up at once," 'said he, "and possess the land, for we are well able to overcome fit. If Jehovah delight in us, then he will bring us Into this land, and give it to us. Only rebel not against Jehovah, nor fear the people of the land. They are bread for us. We can eat them up. The Lord Is with us, and they have no defence against -us. Fear them not."- - Caleb Looks Backward, Forty years old was I when Moses, the servant of Jehovah, sent me from Kadesh-Barnea to spy out the land. Note the honor pald to Moses: he was.'the man of God"; he was "the servant of Jo hoyah." Navertheless my brethren that went up with me. "Went up" from. Kadesh to the north of Canaan. Made the heart of the people melt. They weak- ened thelr spirit by their portrayal of the giants to be met'in Canaan and the walled cities to be conquered. But I wholly followed Jehovah my God. What a glorious thing to be able -to 13, 14. Caleb's name signifies "all heart," and he was a hearty, whole-souled man. And Moses sware on that day, Moses made that promise years before, but Caleb had kept his confidence in the word of the servant of God ever since. May our words be equally cher- ished as immutable! Saying, Surely the land whereon thy foot hath trod- den shall be an inheritance to theo and to thy children for ever. Caleb had trodden the land of Canaan in faith,-and so he had made It his own. Because thou hast wholly followed Jehovah my God. This is a noble refrain_and-a true one. It is the secret of Caleb's and Joseph's suc- cess -and will be the secret of ours, it we adopt it. Caleb's Request. And now, behold, Jehovah hath kept me alive, as he. spake, these forty and five years. Caleb attributed his lgagevity to tlie true cause, From the time that Jehovah spake - this word unto Moses, while Israel walked in the wilderness. Caleb goes back of Moses to God, for the promise given by Moses (verse 9) was really a promise made by the Jord through his servant, And now, lo, I am this day fourscore and five years old. It is a man's duty to grow old, if he can do so without being false to his duty. Men who wantonly "burn the candle -at both ends," though in a cause that seems to them good, are spendthrifts of that which they can never replace. A wise and experienced old man has many times the value of a brilliant young man who cuts his life off in hs youth by his excesses of work, especially if it {a labor to be rich or famous. As my strength was then, even so is my strength now, for war, and to go out and to come in. So also it was sald of Moses, when he came to die at the far greater age of one hundred and twenty, that "his eye was not dim nor his natural force abated" (Deut. 4:7), Now therefore give me this hill country. "The neighborhood of Heb- ron, a region of hills and valleys." Whereof Jehovah spake in that day. We have no record in the Pentateuch of this special promise of Hebron to Caleb, though it must have been made, For thou heardest In that day how the Anakim were there. The great and fortified. well as giant men, difficulty on diffi. culty. be with 'me. He is sure that he has wholly. follow- ed Jehovah in the past, but he knows JJ man's tendency to weakness and error. 8ay this' with truth, as Caleb could! | Giant cities as It may be that Jehovah will Note Caleb's modesty. 11. Caleb's Conquest, Josh. 14: 13, 14, The Blessing of Caleb. And Joshua blessed him. The general called down onythé heroic old man-the blessing of the Almighty; and we "may be sure that Joshua's prayers were heard by God, remembering the long period' whén he dwelt in the tent-sanctuary, never leaving it, day or night. And he gave Hebron unto Caleb the son of Jephunneh for an inheritance, Therefore Hebron became th® inher- {tance of Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite unto this day. The time when the Book of Joshua was written. Because that he wholly followed Je- hovah, the God of Israel, This is the refrain which runs through this little epic and here concludes ft. "There is something singularly touch- ing in Caleb's asking as a favor what was really a most fiazardous and im- portant service to the nation. Rough though - these Hebrew soldiers were, they were capable of the most gentle- manly and chivalrous acts. ere can be no higher act of courtesy than to treat. as a favor to yourself what is really a great favor to another, Well done, Caleb! -------- Rural Farm Family Expenses Few facts are available for refer- ence on the cost of living in rural farm homes in Canada says the Econ- omic Analist, published by the Dom- inion Dept. of Agriculture. However, in a survey of 157 farms in the Red River Valley of Manitoba in 1931 by the Dominion Economics Branch, data on family living were obtained from 129 of the records. Cash expenditures per family averaged $658.32, while farm furnished items amounted to $430.42, making a total of $1,088.74 for the average cost of living during the year. Cash expenditures were 60, a1 'per cent. of the total, while farm furn- ished items averaged 39.63 per. cent. Fully 49.12 per cent. of the total goods and seérviees was spent on food, the average expense for. food being $534.84. Over half this amount was supplied from the farm in butter, eggs, milk, garden produce and meats. Clothing accounted for 9.68 per dent. of the total, or &n average of $104.82 pér family. The average farm fam- ily spent $45.34: for health purposes; $37.70 on edu-ation; $44.29 on amuse- ment, $20.01 on churches and charity, and $24.02, as half th2 amount spent on operating the Bdinmopile charged | to family living, ---------- Young Britons Take To Open Road 'Wayside Hostels Now Dot Countryside Like Petrol Stations In Cities London. -- With the approach of early summer, Young Britain is tak- "ing to the open road. By couples, by groups, by parties, by clubs they wander everywhere between the South Downs and the Grampians. Gone, largely, is the quaint equipment which, whenthe movement first open- ed, gave hikers the air of Tartarin on the Alps. Occasionally one meets parties with portable tents. Usually: they make for youth hostels or the -wayside hounse which announces "bed and breakfast" within the modest 'means of the modern pilgrim. . Youth hostels usually charge around 25 cents a night for accommo- 'dation; and youth hostels now dot the countryside. A youth hostel wel- comes those who would again wan- der in spirit with Chaucer to Canter- bury. A youth hostel stands close by .those romantic west country waters wheré John Ridd made strenuous love to Lorna Doone, From the mountains of Wales to the flats of East Anglia youth hostels await the wanderer. A youth hostel gives greeting in the -wilds of Dartmoor. At Gretna a youth hostel recalls the days when irate parents pursued eloping couples intent on marrying in haste and re- penting at leisure. In Scotland, too, hostels acd Bring. ing up rapidly. Last year 4,000 names were added to the membership of the Scottish Youth Hostels' Association. Five hostels already span the. magic triangle of Ben lomond, Ben Ledi and Ben More. © And the "open road," be it under- sfood, is not the highway of the auto- mobile and the motorcycle, To the hiker such things are anathema. Armed with a one-inch ordance map, he takes to the by-road and field-path, ever seeking fresh woods and pastures race of glants, of which Samson was probably a descendant.
