Apple Sauce Cake. --One cupful of sugar, one-half cupful of butter, one cupful of unsweetened apple sauce, one teaspoonful of baking soda dissolved in alittle hot water and stirred into the apple sauce, one teasponful of cinnamai, one- half teaspoonful of cloves, one- quarter teaspoonful of nutmeg, one-quarter teaspoonful of • salt, one cupful of seeded raisins, one and three-quarter cupfuls of flour.. Use ground spices. Cream the but- ter and sugar, add apple sauce and soda. Next add spices and salt; dredge the raisins with a little flour and add, mixing the flour in last of all. Bake in a slow oven until done. Baked Custard. — Beat three tablespoons sugar with three '•eggs (not ,separated). Add pint of milk, scalded, a speck of salt, and nut- meg and vanilla. Bake in pan of warm water, and when it will not adhere to spoon when testing it is done. This should taste like a de- lieate blanc mange and is especially desirable for children. English Walnut Pie.—Line a pie tin with pie crust and fill with this mixture: Yolks of three eggs (beat- en light), the white of one egg (beaten light), a pinch of salt, one- half cup of sugar, one-half cup of English walnuts chopped fine, two cups of milk. Bake like a custard. When set, remove from oven and spread over the. top of a meringue made of the white of two eggs. Beat stiff and add two tablespoons of sugar and return to the oven to brown. Quick Rolls.—One-quarter of a cake of co m res ed yeast, one pint of flour, one tablespoon of butter or lard, one teaspoon of sugar, a saltspoon of salt. Milk to form a soft dough, about one -'half pint. Dissolve the yeast in two table- spoons of tepid milk, add sugar. Sift the flour and salt, rub the but- ter well into the flour, add the dis- solved yeast, and the remainder of tepid milk.. Beat -well a few strokes. Turn on to the bread "board.

(zinger Snaps.—Take two cups molasses and one cup shortening, bail together for three minutes, let cool, add one teaspoon soda and two teaspoons ginger and enough flour to roll. Bake in quick oven ten minutes, These will keep for some time in a covered stone jar. Toasts With Vegetables. Celery Toast.—For this the out- side stalks of celery tan be used. Out them into inch lengths, put them over the fire in enough hot water to cover them, and stew until the celery is tender. Remove from. the water and add to a cup of this an equal quantity of milk, thicken with a heaping tablespoonful each of butter and flour, stir until smooth and thick, return the celery dice to this, salt and pepper to taste, and pour .over dipped and buttered toast or over fried bread, Anchovy Toast. — Make your toast; after trimming off thecrust butter lightly and spread sparingly. with anchovy paste. Cook together a tablespoonful;'of butter and one of flour, pour upon them a cupful of milk, stir until it is thick. and smooth and put into it two hard boiled eggs, .chopped coarsely.. When the eggs are hot through, pepper to taste—the anchovy will' probably supply enough salt—and pour the egg sauce on the anchovy spread toast. This is more a relish than a main dish, but if you choose to • make more sauce and double the quantity of egg used you can have a .good dish for Sunday night supper or for a family or even a company lunch. Cheese Toast, I eeeSlioe bread, thin and butter lightly. Lay be- tween two thicknesses of it a thin slice of Canadian dairy cheese;; heat a. little butter in a frying pan, put the cheese • sandwiches in this, and brown delicately, taking long enough about it to have the cheese .melted on the inside. Sprinkle with salt before serving. Cheese Toast, •II.—Heat half a cupful of shaved cheese in a sauce- pan, and -when it is melted add to it a cupful of milk; stir "until milk and cheese are well blended. Beat an egg light, pour some of -the hot cheese and egg upon it, and return to the saucepan, cook one minute, season with salt and red . pepper and -paprika, and pour upon but- tered toast-in.6, hot dish. Household. ,Hints. Always boil new ironware before usingit. Icooking fish make sure that the cleaning is thorough. Toremove jars of fruit satisfac- torily pack them in sawdust. Make baking powder biscuits with waterinstead of milk. Linsed oil will repolish furniture which has become scratched. Wash. and dry flannels as quiok- ly as possible if you want them to be soft. Small sweet red peppers are ex- cellent mixed with celery and po- tato salad. Soak fresh -water fish in water into which alittle lemon juice has been squeezed. When baking fish remove the backbone and as many of the side bones as possible. Halibut is one of the most econo- mical' fish to. purchase; as it con- tains sd little waste or ;bones.. Faded blue •hairribbons may be freshened by allowing them to stand in strong blue` water for a few minutes. Many cakes are spoiled by care- less guessing at proportions. It is best to use a "marked cup and weigh accurately. Cream will not' whip satisfactor- ily unless 36 hours old. Whites of eggs should bo perfectly cold to whip perfectly. To remove scoreh marks from ehina cook it in strong borax water until the brown marks can be wip- ed off with a cloth. A good cleaning paste for enam- eled baths, zinc pails, etc.., is made of equal parts of shaved yellow soap, whitening and common soda dissolved over the fire in the least possible amount of water. In warming a steamed pudding or in steaming a stale cake never put the article on a flat dish, Place the pudding in a colander in the steamer, and you will be surprised how light and delicate it will be- come. For painted walls dissolve two ottueea of borax in two 'quarts of water, Add one tablespoonful of ammonia. Use half this quantity to each bucket of water. Do net use' soap,,. ftu'b with clean towels' till dry. .Purchase a few tin spoons, bend the handles: double about an inch from the end, ¶his will make them shorter and stiffer, Put one in each of the cans. of soda, baking powder and all other powder in- gredients that are , measured by spoonfuls and see how convenient it will be: To renovate and brighten gilt frames of pictures or mirrors, wash them very gently with a small sponge moistened with spirits of wine or oil of turpentine. The sponge must be suffidiently wet to remove dirt and fly marks. If a garment becomes badly soil- ed with perspiration, put it in soft, lukewarm water and wash with In- dian meal instead of soap. This will remove stains of long standing if the meal is well rubbed into the soiled places with your hands. In washing muslin curtains they will look more sheer if you boil two quarts of wheat bran in si quarts of water for half an hou and strain and mix in the water in. which the curtains are to be wash- ed. Rinse lightly in clear, cold wa- ter .and dry. The top of a child's stocking is usually the first place to show signs of wear. If the new stockings are lined down as faras the knee, the garter fastening will not tear it so quickly. Do not fasten the lining at the lower edge, as this would makean ugly seam. Most convenient, work aprons are made by turning up the bottom on the right side to forma generous pocket, stitching once up the cen- tre to. hold in place. When setting the house in order in the morning these aprons save many steps. LUMBER PRODUCTS, 1912. Quantity, "Value and -Character of the Cut. There was ten per eent. less lum- ber cut in Canada during 1912 than in the preceding year, the total quantity amounting to 4,389,793;000 feet, board measure, valued at $69,475,784. The shingle 'and lath production amounted, to . $5,239,941 and square timber netted $1,825,- 154, making the total value of lum- ber and allied products in 1912 equal to $76,340,979. Spruce is; Canada's most impor-, taut conifer, or "softwood," for it made up over one-third the amount of lumber and lath cut in 1912 and also 'constituted over three-quar- ters of the pulpwood production for the same year. Succeeding it on the list are white pine; Douglas fir, hemlock, cedar and birch. Birch is Canada's most important hardwood, and takes precedence over many conifers, or "soft - 'woods," softwoods," as well. It was sawn in over 2,000 mills, and formed 28:5 per cent. of the square timber' cut in Canada. To this large percen- tage of birch was due in some m.ea- sure the phenomenal increaser of 89.9 per cent. in the cut of square timber during 1912, this being the first increase since 1877. Other "hardwoods' increasingly used are maple and basswood, both of which are also common in the farmer's woadlot." Although, the "hardwoods" -constituted only 7.1 per cent. of the total lumber •cut, the supply of trees is by no means; exhausted, for, unlike the conifers , there was an. increase in the. amount of such woods cut in 1912 over that of 1911.

Deutsche .Batik, Berlin, has completed his report to the laispr ofthe wealth of the Gerinan nation. It will be pub- lished a few weeks hence and will be sold for .$30. From proof streets seen it appears that Dr. I-Ieliforielt estimates the ag- gregate total wealth of Germany at from $75,000,000,000 to $78,000,000,000. The wealth of 'Prance is placed at $60,000,000,000, that of England from $57,000,000,000 ':to $65,000,000,000, and that of the United States at $124,- 000,000,000. The German per capita wealth is placed at from $1,100 to $1,200, that of- France, $1,425; Eng- land from $1,250 to $1,385, and the United States $1,360, The annual income of the German people is placed at between $9,000,- 000,000 and $10,000,000,000, of which x I about one-sixth is used for public x purposes. The amount used for pri- vate purposes could not be ascertained definitely, but is estimated approx- imately at $6,000,000,000. From ,the deposits in German coin - menial andsavings s v in s banks it is' de- duced that the Germans save $1,000,- 000,000 a year. Adding the automatic increase in values to the estimates the annual increase in the aggregate wealth is $2,500,000,000. A. FOOD DRINK Which Brings Daily Enjoyment. A lady. doctor writes : "Though busy hourly with my own affairs, I will not deny myself the -pleasure of taking a few min- utes to tell of my enjoyment daily obtained from my morning eup of Postum. It is .a food beverage, not an irritant like coffee. "I began to use Postum 8 years ago, not because I wanted to, but because coffee, which I dearly loved, made my nights long, weary periods to be dreaded and unfitted me for business .during the day." Tea is just' as injurious ascoffee, because the drug; caffefne, is found in both tea and coffee. "On advice of a friend, I first tried Postum, making itcarefully as suggested • on the package. As I, had always used -"'cream and no sugar," •I mixed my "Postum, so., It. looked good, was clear and frag- rant, and it' was a pleasure, to see' the cream colo) it as my Kentucky friend wanted her coffee to look— 'like ook`like a new saddle.' "Then I tasted it critically, for 1 had tried many `substitutes' for coffee. I was pleased, yes, satis- fied with my Postum in taste and effect, and am yet, being a constant user of it all these years. I contin- ually assure my friends end ac- quaintances that they will like it in place of coffee, and receive benefit from its use. 1 have gained weight, can sleep and am not nervous."

BETTER TIIAN OIL. Sulphite Pulp -Mills Furnished 1,1iew Road -Sprinkling Material. Experiments recently conducted at Queen's University, Kingston, show conclusively. that the dark - colored liquor obtained as a waste product in the manufacture of sul- phite wood -pulp makes a better dressing for public highways than the to r w -,g ode oils now used. The two treatments were compared un- der identical conditions, and it was found that the same quantity of concentrated (four to one) waste liquor will last longer than road - oil when subject to the washing of rain, and has theiditional advan- tage of being free from: the nauseat- ing odor so objectionablein low- grade oils. The Laurentide Pulp and Paper Company have been us- ing this waste liquor for a consider- able time on the streets of Grand Mere, .Quebec, where their mills are located, and ,find it vary satisfac- tory. Y The Bulletin on Pulpwood recent- ly issued by the Dominion Forestry Branch at Ottawa, states that one- third of the pulpwood used in Can- ada in 1912 was manufactured into pulp by the sulphite method, the other wood constituents being dis- solved out bya, solution of calcium sulphate and piped into the rivers as waste liquor.. Thus one-half of every cord of pulpwood becomes absolute waste, as also the 140 lbs. of sulphur used in its dissolution, for the sulphur becomes so com- bined organically that it cannot be economically recovered. It is calculated that material val- ued gat oven one and a quarter mil- lion dollars is thus wasted, in Can- ada each year. The utilization of this enormous waste is, therefore,. a very impor- tant problem in Canada, .where an increasing amount of sulphite pulp is being manufactured every year. As a temporary expedient, the use of this. waste .liquor as:a road dress- ing is to be desired, for it would prevent the contamination of the rivers on which the sulphite mills. are situated It 'Sometimes Is.

MONTI:MAL IIL3ALTH Rest and Efficient Work. Scientific men have lately made some very interesting experiments to learn how to perform the Freat- est amount of work at the highest point of, efficiency with the smallest amount of fatigue. These experi rnents prove beyond question that work that is broken by rest at short and regular intervals, is more pro- ductive, both in quantity and qual- ity, than steady work, in spite of the time lost in rest. The experiments were made with strong and unimaginative male la- borers who were quite unaware of the meaning of them. Even in such unskilled mechanical labor as mov- ing heavy "bars from one place to another, the man who rested at re- gular intervals moved more bars in a given, time than the man who worked steadily. The principles that these experi- ments confirm can be applied to every kind of work, and by every type of worker. Every one knows that 'those who work must also rest, but every one does not realize that rest should come at very short in- tervals, Too many men work unre- mittingly up to the breaking -point, and then have to take time to re - Cover. The : new theory of work and rest teaches that there need be nobreaking-point, and that re- covery or recuperation should go on constantly, hand in hand with work. This theory is especially import- ant i nhescol i" t h o room. The quality of work that pupils of all ages per- form will improve if they have a quarter of every hour for rest and recuperation. The theory is of Value -to the business man also; and none needs it more than the woman in the home who goes on wearily, hour after hour, about her endless tasks. She ought to understand that she can actually do more work, and do it a great deal better, if she will only lie down for fifteen min- utes in each 'hour, quite regardless of the amount of work ahead of her. A quarter of each hour spent in this way will seem like a shame- ful waate of time to many energetic people. but a fair trial will prove that it is economical.—Youth's Companion. Hot Baths. The usual objection to hot baths, says Dr. Muskgrove,is that people 'take cold unless they go straight to bed as soon as they . have dried themselves. • Otherwise, so they say, they goon perspiring and take a chill. Nowthis" is due, not to their having. had .a hot bath, but because the water was ` not hot enough when they got out of, it. Hot water has the same effect as cold in bracing up the sweat pores, and preventing them from continuing to pour out unnecessary perspira- tion. Lukewarm water, on the other hand, leaves the skin lax and moist, and it is then that people are liable to chills. Hence the pop- ular idea of running in some cold water before the bath is finished is a mistake, as it brings about the very .conditions we are anxious to avoid. The best temperature at which to take a hot bath is 100 deg. Fahr:, or just below that. If more hot water is added afterwards ib should be hot, not cold, so as to maintain the temperature at the same level. With the aid of these precautions it will be found that drying is .a simple process, and the skin is left in a delightful state without any undue perspiration to follow. ►h WOMAN'S "li'AT.A.L AGE" IS 30. German Savant Says Man Begins to Love Strongly at 24. Dr. Jackh of Hamburg, Germany, has analyzed on scientific princi- ples the course of love in the lives of the average man and woman. He puts the result in diagrammatic form, and shows that the male "curve of love" or capacity for affection toward the other sex, is highest between 24 and 26, whereas the female curve rises highest be- twen 30 and 34. ' His statistics are based on an ex- amination of the sex lives of 400 famous men ,and women. The curves show that man loves strongly at twenty, but that after that there is. a drop, owing to his getting over ;youth's' first delusions. He begins to love strongly at 24. "Ha seldom loves at 80, being then, too busy, with his, advancement in life." Woman loves superficially at 17 and more or less equably between then and30. But great passion t {> g of her life usually comeswhen sTieo is past first youth. "Thirty is her'" fatal age." Even 40 is not hope- less.
