Try them when unexpected company arrives, or when you desire something “different”: Roast Boston 1 tablespoon onion, minced 2 tablespoons fat j 2 cups baked beans, mashed 1 egg slightly beaten Salt, pepper, paprika ; 2 cups cracker or dry bread crumbs % cup cooked tomatoes 3-4 cup mustard pickle, finely chop­ ped Cook onion in fat until tender. Add remaining ingredients. Season to taste. Blend thoroughly. Turn into greased loaf pan. Bake in moderate oven (350 degrees F.) 40 minutes. Wash tomatoes and scoop out seeds. Season bread crumbs with salt, pepper, mustard and Worcestershire sauce. Slice cheese in thin slivers. Put alternate layers of cheese and crumbs in scooped out tomatoes un­ til filled to the top. ^Put a- strip of bacon across each tomato. Put in a shallow pan with a little water in the bottom and bake thirty minutes in a moderate oven (’75 degrees F.) Another good tomato and cheese dish is in the form of a scallop. Scalloped Tomatoes and Cheese Four firm tomatoer, y2 cup bread crumbs, 4 tablespoons grated cheese, butter, salt and pepper, sugar. Wash tomatoes and cut out stem end. Cut in thick slices and fry s'.owly in butter. Put them carefully in a shallow baking dish, sprinkle with salt, pepper and sugar and cover with cheese mixed with bread crumb'. Dot generously with butter and bake in a hot oven (400 degrees F.) until brown on top. Serve from baking dish. This toma o dish is especially synod with halrarl ficli Tt’c also an ex­ cellent lent vegetable dish for when you plan t0 be out in the afternoon. You see the tomato slices can be cooked and arranged in the baking dish all ready to slip in the oven for browning the last few minutes while you are se.ting the table. CANDY FOR LUNCH? Candy has a really valuable place in the school lunch. For sugar is quickly turned to energy and two or three pieces of candy for dessert are not only tempting but invigorating. Here are some new candy receipes that need no cooking. The work is al­ most done before you start because the sweetened condensed milk is a blend of sugar and whole milk which has been cooked down until it is as rich and thick as cream. In five minutes’ kitchen duty, you can turn out a batch of dainties that will de­ light the youngsters’ sweet tooth. Walnut Fruit Loaf 2 cups raisins 1 cup walnut meats 14 cup sweetened condensed milk Put raisins and nut meats through food chopper. Add sweetened conden­ sed miik, blending thoroughly. Scrape mixture into buttered pan which l.as been sprinkled with confectioners’ sugar, smoothing out. Sprinkle top with confec.ioners’ sugar. Chill. Cut into squares for serving. Orange Cocoanut Balls 2(4 cups confectioners’ sugar *4 cup sweetened condensed milk 2 teaspoons orange juice 2 teaspoons grated orange rind 1 cup shredded cocoanut Measure sugar after sifting; blend with sweetened condensed milk, orange juice and orange rind. Drop from teaspoon into shredded cocoa- nut; roll in small balls. Place in re­ frigerator ox* cool place for several hours. TOOTHSOME ! With fresh peaches on the market, a good recipe for a dessert-cake dish is a boom to every housewife — and Corned Beef Hash Puffs 2 cups corned beef hash 2 eggs 2 tablespoons chopped dill pickles 14 cup water Parsley 1-3 cup catsup Add well-beaten egg yolks to corned beef hash and mix thoroughly. Fold in stiffly beaten egg whites and drop hash mixture by spoonfuls onto but­ tered baking sheet. Place under broil­ er and brown. Combine catsup, chop­ ped pickles and water, and heat to make a sauce. Top puffs with hot sauce, garnish with parsley and serve immediately. AUTUMN BANANA DISHES Now that bananas are plentiful and Inexpensive, you may enjoy these de­ lightful tasties as often as you wish. Try them and you will immediately place both recipes in your permanent file. Bananas en Casserole 6 small bananas 1 glass currant or grape jelly 1 cup boiling water 1 lonioK Peel the bananas. Remove the coarse threads and divide in quarters, cutting first crosswise and then lengthwise. Place in a greased cas­ serole and pour ovei’ them a sauce made by melting the currant or grape jelly in the boiling water, and mix­ ing with it the juice of a lemon. Cov­ er the casserole and bake until the banana.3 are tender. The cover may be removed at the last moment and the bananas sprinkled with granula­ ted sugar and allowed to brown slightly. Serve as an entree with game, mutton or beef. Banana Fritters 6 bananas 2 tablespoons sugar 3 tablespoons orange juice Fritter batter Peel bananas, cut each in two and split each half. Place the pieces in a bowl with sugar and orange juice and let them stand for one hour. Drain the fruit, dip in batter and fry in deep fat. STILL MORE WAYS TO USE TOMATOES When tomatoes are big and meaty and rich red, serve them every day plain raw, in salads or cooked. A grand combination is veal cut­ lets with grilled tomatoes. Of course, when you serve cooked tomatoes, you can’t serve them as a salad, but cab­ bage is good now and then, and a cabbage salad with sour cream dress­ ing adds just the right touch to this menu. Grilled Tomatoes Wash tomates and cut in slices about % inch thick. Sprinkle lightly with sugar, salt and pepper and dip in fine cracker crumbs. Brown quick­ ly in but.er in a frying pan on one side and then on the other. Serve at once. Veal Cutlets Veal steak cut y2 inch thick, 1 egg. 2 teaspoons melted butter, fine dried bread crumbs. 1 teaspoon salt, *4 tea­ spoon pepper, 1 cup water. By Sax Rohmer THE SEVERED FINGER—The Girl Again!FU MANCHU Cm the 'Steak in neat pieces about the size of a silver dollar. Season with salt and pepper and dip in melt­ ed butter. Roll in crumbs, dip in egg slightly beaten and roll again in crumbs. Saute until well browned on both sides. Add water, cover closely and simmer slowly for forty-five minutes. If the oven is going for bak­ ing, cook the cutlets, closely covered in the oven. Serve with the. gravy in the pan. Baked Tomatoes and Cheese This is a splendid luncheon dish, serve it with toasted rolls and a fresh fruit salad. Iced chocolate or iced tea may accompany it. Four firm large tomatoes, 1 cup soft bread crumbs, x4 pound Canadian or Swiss cheese, % teaspoon salt, % tea poon pepper, 14 teaspoon mus­ tard, 14 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce, 4 thin slices bacon. SUNDAY CHOO!CHOP] fssom I lk--~ ~ - JOHN (THE MINISTER AND HIS PEOPLE). — 3 John. GOLDEN TEXT — Beloved, imitate not that which is evil, but that which is good. He that doeth good is of God: he that doeth evil hath not seen God. 3 John 11. THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING TIME — The Apostle John was born probably about the time of the Lord Jesus, 3 op 4 B.B., and lived un- I til almo.t the close of the century, at least to;'90 a.D. | PLACE — The Third Epistle of ( Jchn doe J not tell from what city , John was, writing. It was probably from Ephesus. ‘‘The elder unto Gaius the beloved, i whom I love in truth.” There are ( three men in the New Testament by j the name of Gaius in addition to the one mentioned here — Gaius of Ma- | cedonia (Acts 19:29); Gaius of Corinth I (Rom. 16:23’; Gaius of Derbe (Acts . 20:4-. “Beloved.’’ This word tlxe Apostle I use 5 ten times in his three Epistles, but it is not found once in his Gos­ pel. ‘‘I pray that in all things thou mayest prosper and be in heakh.” This verse is good authority fox' pray- it’s made with one egg. Peach Upside Down Cake 114 cup sifted cake floui' 114 teaspoons baking powder 14 teaspoon salt % cup granulated sugax* 1 teaspoon vanilla 4 tablespoons butter 2 cups sliced peaches 4 tablespoons softened butter or or o.her shortening 1 egg, well beaten % cup milk % cup brown sugar, firmly packed Sift flour once, measure, add bak­ ing powder, salt and sugar and sift togethei’ three times.

See Ma.t. 25:35. Gaius was, no doubt, famous for his hospitality to Christiana who were travelling through the city of his' residence. ‘‘Who bare witness t0 thy love be­ fore the church: whom thou wilt do well to get forward on their journey worthily of God.” The word here translated ‘send on’ “is the term fox' the provident dimissal of a guest whom we provide with what is need­ ful for his furvher journey (itus 3 : 13; Rom. 15 : 24; I Cor. 16 : 6, II- “Because that for the sake of the Name they went forth.” Neither the wor ‘Christ’ or ‘Jesus’ appears in this Epistle, but certainly ‘ehe Name’ here refers to the Lord Jesus Christ. “Taking nothing of the Gentiles.” They can-ied out as their rule of mis­ sion work the Pauline custom of re­ fusing support from those amongst hwom they -were working as mission­ aries. They had, therefore, a special claim on the hospitality and help of the churches in places through which they had to pass. “We therefore ought to welcome such, that we may be fellow-work­ ers for the truth.” He who has al­ most no enthusiastic regard for mis­ sions has not the spirit of primitive Christianity within hs breast. “I wrote somewhat unto the church” The most natural interpretation of the words is that the elder wrote to the Church a letter of similai' content to the private letter Giap.;, but, know­ ing the power of Diotreplxes to op­ pose his wishes, he wrote a private letter to Gaius, a meiibei’ of the Church on whose loyalty he could thoroughly depend. “But Diotreplxes, who loveth to have the preminence among them, receiveth us noL.” Cfj Matt. 20 : 28. Diotreplxes was one [who had ob­ tained great power in the Church to which John was addressing this third Epistle. “Therefore, if I come, I will bring to rememberance his works which he doeth, prating against us with j wicked words: and not content there- 1 with, neither doth he himself receive the brethren, and them that would he forbiddeth and casteth them out j of the church.” An elaboration of the charge made against this maxi in the preceding verse. “Beloved, imitate no; that which is evil, but that which is good.” The real danger to the Church lay, not in this man’s despotic ways, but in the infectious nature of his tyranny. “He that doeth good is of God: he that doeth evil hath not teen God.” He has God as the source of his mor­ al and spiritual life; he is a child of God. In its highest sense, this is true only of him who ‘went about doing good,’ but it is true in a lower sense of every earnest Christian. “Demetrius hath the witness of all men, and of the truth itself: yea, we also bear witness; and thou knowest that our- witness is true.” The truth of Gcd, the divine rule for the walk of all believers, “was the mirror in which the walk of Deme­ trius was reflected, So that the mir­ ror seemed to place in a cleax- light his Christian virtue and uprightness, and thus to bear’ witness to him. “I had many things to write unto thee, but I am unwilling to write them to thee with ink and pen: Bui I hope shortly to see thee, and we shall speak face to face. Peace be unto thee. The friends salute thee . Salute the friends by name.” The phrase ‘by name’ occurs only once again in the New Testament, ‘he calleth his own sheep by name’ (John 10 : 3). St. John as shepherd of the churches of Asia would imitate the Good Shep­ herd and know, all his sheep by name. Potato Standards To Be Improved Fredericton, N. B. — Improved methods of ' gathering, packing and shipping New Brunswick’s potato crop with the purpose of making a stronger appeal to outside markets is the object of an educational cam­ paign laxxnched by the Provincial Department of Agriculture undex' Hon. A. C. Taylor. The department believes that New Brunswick potatoes have suffered needless deterioration before reach­ ing the consumer. Full time duty of a department of agriculture offi­ cial will be to promote educational work among growers and shippers, and to seek additional outlets for the disposal of table and seed stocks. “Through the use of better meth­ ods of handling and shipping 1 am confident we can interest bigger and better markets in New Brunswick potatoes,” said Mr. Taylor. Milk Diet For Obesity G. A. Harrop describes in the Journal of the American Medical As­ sociation two methods of using ban­ anas and milk as a reducing diet. In the first, one or two ripe bananas with one glass of whole milk con­ stitute the entire breakfast and lunch means fix' an indefinite period. With this the evening meal is more or less restricted, consisting of clear soup, a slice of lean meat (alter- atively fish or fowl), vegetables, a slice of bread and butter, and a por­ tion of uncooked fruit.

Quebec Roads In New Beauty As Bill Posters Go (From the Quebec Government’s Tourist Bulletin.) During the session cr 1933 the Minister of Highways had adopted by the Provincial Legislature a law subjecting to stringent regulations the installation of advertising post­ ers along the main highways of the province of Quebec. By virtue of this law, and except in the case of posters acknowledged to be of public interest or author­ ized by the law itself, no advertis­ ing poster or sign may be set up along a main highway less than 100 feet from the said highway when its dimensions do not exceed 10 feet in length and eight feet in width; less than 200 feet from the highway when its dimensions do not exceed 25 feet in length and 12 feet in width; and not less than 300 feet when its dimensions do not exceed 50 feet in length and 15 ' feet in width. Moreover, no advertising poster may be located less than 1,000 feet from another poster; less than GOO feet from the crossing of two roads or the crossing of a highwaj’ and railroad; facing a turn or sharp change in the direction of the high­ way. In the case of commercial adver­ tisements advertising an industry, a commerce, a hotel or restaurant and placed by the proprietor on his own establishment, these advertisements are not to exceed two feet by three. The law also empowers the Min­ ister of Highways to have removed or prohibit installation of all adver­ tising posters and signs whose pres­ ence masks or mars a countryside or panorama. Penalties are provided for in the case of of proprietors, ten­ ants or all persons benefiting fronx an advertising poster or sign in­ stalled contrary to this law. Enforcement of this law, which was sanctioned on April 13, 1933, was postponed until December 1, 1934, in ordex' to give all advertisers using advertising posters or signs time to remove them, or to conform to rules and regulations which were drawn up. This law has now been in force for nearly seven months, and has already brought about excellent re­ sults. A journey over $$ Wffl high­ ways of the province gives ample evidence of this. Long fences, cov­ ered with multi-colored advertise­ ments, which formerly stretched for 20 and 25 miles from roads leading from big cities, have nearly all dis­ appeared; those which are still in place will soon be removed or in­ stalled further out, conforming to the law, before it becomes necessary to impose the penalties provided for. The beauty of our roads had a great deal to gain from the disap­ pearance of these advertising pos­ ters. One may now travel long dis­ tances without the countryside be­ ing spoiled by garish placards, when not completely hidden by a series of vividly-colored signs. Stoop To Conquer Poor Posture That it will make your legs limber and -supple, thereby giving your walk youthful ease and grace, is an important but by no means the most important reason for doing the fol­ lowing health exercise. If done cor­ rectly and slowly, It will improve your carriage and circulation, calnx tired nerves and, unless it is caused by eyestrain, often will cure a head­ ache. Stand erect with the tip of the little finger of each hand held lightly against the top of a straight chair. No other part of your hands should touch the chair. Raire your heels from the floor, putting all of your weight on your toes. Now, keeping the backbone perfectly straight and the chin up, bend your knees, lowering your body to a squatting position. Don’t let the heels touch the floox’ and don’t put any strain on your fingers. They are held on the chair merely to serve as a balance. Your legs must do the work. Incidentally, wear flat-heeled slippers when doing this exercise. Better still, wear no shoes. Hold the squatting pose for three seconds and then, still maintaining good posture, make the legs force your body back up to a standing position. Repeat ten times night and morning. Be sure to do it slowly. This exercise has been known to cure insomnia. Some night when you find that you can’t sleep, get up and do it a few times. It doesn’t require too much effort and certainly is worth trying.
