An impromptu group of young peo- ple were gathered around a player - piano one evening about a year ago,. inbanker the home f o a prominent bank,.i m the city of Montreal. The banker's daughter was seated at the "iiistru- went, and the others were alternately singing• and dancing and generally making merry; Presently the music and •dancing ceased. There was a momentary hill. Someone suddenly suggested that Mary, one of the girls in the .group and a member of Montreal's younger set, be requested to produce her violin, which slie co -incidentally had with her, and play a few selections. After a little coaxing, Mary acquiesced and came forward. Under the soft' glow of the drawing -room piano lamp she began to play. She played heautifully. The bank- er's. daughter accompanied her. She was asked to give several numbers, showing that her music was highly appreciated. There was one : girl, however, who although to all external appearances apparently enjoyed Mary's . playing, inwardly was•burning with envy --en- vious because Mary was winning the admiration of the girls present and she was not. As a matter of fact, she was the only one present who could not play some instrument or other, and naturally had nothing in common with the rest. ' That evening there was one girl who went away from this luxurious bank er's home, resolved to learn to play the :piano and violin both. "She would start the piano first," she half mutter- ed to herself. Then no. Yong er would she be ° an' outcast whenever a group of young people gathered together for a musical evening. It is not 'difficult to guess which girl this was. • To -day this -girl is well on the way toward being an accomplished pianist. She has advanced sufficiently far to feel "quite at horse" among other girl musicians. A year ago she knew nothing about Music. To -day she is in her element when she hears Bach or Beethoven or Brahma being played or referred to. As soon as she has taken a few more lessons she insists on studying the violin also. There is a moral to the above story. It is that every person when young' should be given the opportunity of learning`to play some particular mus- ical instrument. When they are older, therefore, they are not at a disadvan- tage when surrounded by musical people. Parents' should encourage their chil- dren to take up music when young. There is no finer way of keeping the family intact than by "Music in the Horne." TRICKS WITH PIES. In making berry pies from the fresh fruit, roll the berries lightly in flour before you add the sugar and butter, and your pie will never run over, nor will it have the pasty taste that a pie has into which flour has been sifted: carelessly. Apple pies may be governed the same way', although I have' a device I like betted for apples. After you put .After eathi of 8okin 'F6�irigieya freshens the mouth and sweetens the breath..

This will keep in all the juices, and it can be readily strip- ped off when the pie comes out of the, oven. And do all the readers know that e quart of fruit, say, cherriesor plums, will make two pies? Make the first oneeas usual, frainixig off almost all the juice from the fruit. Now the liquor remaining may be thickened with cornstarch and with a little but- ter and more sugar, will make a good pie filling --A, M. P. A BIRTHIDAY GIFT. Anodd little birthday gift, one that does 'not cost much over ten cents, is the shade or lamp pull. Button molds of the natural wood are used. To make the square 'pull, two small square molds for the bottom and top group and two of a little larger 'size for betvveen are needed, ' Paint them bright colors, `using enamel or .artist's tube paints. Water colors niay be used, -but .a coat of var- nish or shellac is then needed'to pre- vent dampness affecting the color. I enameled the square button molds a peacock blue "and „the silk cord ori which they are strung is bright orange, thus giving .a pleasing com- bination but still a bright . touch of color. Always knot one end . of the cord to prevent its fraying out when work- ing orking and to hold the"Tower Molds.' A twenty -four -inch cord is a good length. String on two flat molds and tie a knot down close, thus holding the molds closely' together between the end knot and the one just made. The two larger molds are then strung, and a knot tied down close on top of these two. Leave about three inches and tie a knot and string two small molds and tie a knot on top of. these. In snaking pulls of other" de- signs be sure to have good proportions between molds. • In the other pull I used round molds of two sizes. These are painted bright yellow and have little conventional rose designs in black and green: The cord is a turquoise blue. A green or black cord . would go very well with the yellow. In this pull I separated each bead, holding them in place by a knot on top and bottom, which also adds to thedecorative effect. Pulls made in light colors are lovely for a girl's living room and in the bright colors for the living -room win- dow shades or piano lamp.—D. W. P. ONE NIGHT OUT FIXES THE TEA KETTLE. Here is the remedy to get the lime out of a tea kettle with little trouble: Empty': the kettle, removing the top. Set -outside over night during hard freezing weather. The moisture in the lime will cause it to freeze and become brittle. Thus, early the.. following morning, it may be taken off the sides in large chunks, depending on how hard it is frozen. This method has been used several times with success by members of the home economics staff of Purdue University, who have found it quite • effective. CAN' MEAT NOW FOR SUMMER TJSE. Many a farm housewife has longed for a supply of ° fresh meat to give varietyto the menu in summer, Fresh !neat is expensive to buy in small quantities the year round and many farm homes are situated a consider- able distance from the butcher shop: The discovery of ,the canning pro- cess for meats has solved this pr•ob- iem for the farmer's wife: Now, by killing in the winter when the possi- bility of spoilltge is small, a se rply can be canned for summer use ;to, be ready to serve at a moment's notice.

They found a quiet corner in the hotel dining -roam; but neither was in- clined to eat, and they did not pro- long the meal, Once outside again, Carlotta euggested the top of a trans - car to Keivinside, and there they en- joyed themselves as two children might. "I should like to ride on like this forever!" said Carlotta with her beau- tiful smile, "to ride away to the utter- most limits, and get clear from all the worries of life!,' "I forgot them the moment I saw your dear face," answered Rankine, and at his look her coo rose. "I haven't got over the wonder of it yet—and to think that so short a time ago you were only a name!" she said. n .Eur life is like' that," observed Rankine, with an oddly reminiscent look on his face.. • "One just goes on gaily and without thought, then sud- denly a door opens and nothing is the same again! In sny case it was the Clock House door -and you!" Her face became wistful and rather sad. • "Nothing is -the same, indeed! • But happiness is pain, don't you think? T have proved it in the last three days.",. "And I too! But 'it is worth all the pain, Carlotta. And now I think we shall get down here; and stroll down to the river. For the next hour or so, the half of Glasgow will be lunching, and. the other half dining, and we shall have some solitude. We need it, my dear, for we have got to face the hard facts in which our happiness is wrapped up." He assisted her down the steep stairway with ;a tenderness whose (every touch "was a thrill. They were like two" chi_dren in their acceptance of the happiness that had come to hem, though there was something, too, of the indescribable wistfulness and pathos of the child -heart in their faces. - "Carlotta,",said Rankine, when they had reached;a.remote, sheltered nook where a seat "invited •them,. "there is nothing surer than that we shall have to pay for this!" "I want to pay," she "answered quietly, "for there is nothing worth having in the we, `ld to be had far no= thing, or even cheaply! I shall glory in the paying. The only thing I wish is that it would not hurt other people." "Peter took it badly, 'Carlotta!' Ile was frightfully cut up, I expect?" "He was very angry, dear. And I was sorry—I could not tell him how sorry! But he never will understand: -Never in this world, Alan, to the end of time! The thing will just seem hateful, sordid, dishonorable to him. I suppose that ishew the world will regard us, and we shall not even be able to put ourselves right with it!" "There will be 'a few understanding souls, I hope," said. Alan. consolingly. "For the outside world it does not matter at all; but one wants to live honorably." "Yes, of course," she answered,' and a Tittle shiver ran through her shrink- ing' figure. "But for nee, you could. have lived honorably we both could. If only I had waited! It is1 who did the wrong to Peter, Alan; and you must never blame yourself!" "I could have gone- away when I knew," he suggested. But she merely shook her head. "It would have made no . difference, I should never have married him, even if I had never seen you. He did well to be angry with me—and he was! Have you seen him since?" • Rankine looked the other way. He had not the smallest intention of tell- ing Carlotta what had actually hap- pened: • - "Yes, I have Met him, and he in- tends to get me into a very tight core. ner, Carlotta, his objective being to put me out of Stair." "But how can he do that?" she asked, with a " sudden terms in her eyes: ' "Nothing' easier—he certainly has the pewee. .While I was away abroad, he got a grip, bit by bit, There never has been any money in Steir, •Carotta.

Do you crimean that you will actually have to go away from your beautiful home?" "I have spent the morning with nay lawyer, He advises me that' Peter means to foreelose, and that unless I cau pay him in full, either he gets Stair or 'I become bankrupt." "Is there no way out?" asked Car- lotta, and her glance was a Tittle wild.. "Mr.• Richardson is not hopeless. He will do what he can to get me out of nay cou'sin's grasp. But it will'merely mean a transfer of obligation, and the place will have to be let to strangers; in fact, to the highest bidder. There won't be any difficulty: We've been approached before, but my father would never'listen or entertain tain the idea. His .sen, • unfortunately, has no choice." "Your sister?" asked Carlotta, and her voice had fallen to a• low, rather pitiful cadence. "Judy is very brave. She won't deepen the misery with complaint, So,. you seed it is hard facts we have to face, niy dear, and I'm Afraid you've done very badly for yourself" "Then what—then what will you do?" she asked, turning swiftly to him.

I can't find money in the orthodox channels, Carlotta, •Some- thing has been left out of my coinpo- sites'. .It's the life of adventure I must seek, I'm afraid; and when I go, my dear, I will leave you free." "Then you—then you are sorry we have met?" she asked as she rose slow- ly to her feet "Not sorry, but—hard facts again, Car'otta—I m a homeless, a lnoney- less man, and you deserve the best. I must leave you free. Any man of' honor would?" "And if I' won't' be free?".she said, and dropped her hand, light as thistle- down, on his shoulder. He' turned, and laid his lips upon it with a lingering passion. "Then there is only waiting, my darling, for you and pre!" "1 will -`wait till death, if need be, and after it!" she answered, and, bending her head;.'; •erect him. her lips. 't� BCH APTER VIII. INFORMATION FOR JUDY, Judy Rankine wasuite well aware that things were happening enin to her brother out of her knowledge, but Iife had already taught her how to wait. But after he had gone off to Glasgow that morning, with two very • big wrinkles in his brows,,"a singular sense of futility overwhelmed her. She, who up till now had had so much to do, - se many to think *and legislate for, teas suddenly, as it were, laid upon the .shelf'! She had a long day in front, with nothing to put into it. Nobody needed her. The hands, so swift and willing for service, .for the first time was empty. When she had given her orders Iai the day, and had had the customary talk with Ann Christy, she felt her- self suddenly at a loss. Alan had not invited her to accompany him to Glasgow,..though she had thrownout a hint. 'S1 -ie understood that he wish- ed' to have his day and his mind un- trammelled, for she was aware that the visit he had to. pay to the lawyers was of an urgent and cruel kind. He had .told her so much, and promised her full information when Ile should return.

THE PROFITS 'IN TEA GROWING The price of good quality tea has risen in the last two years between 2iic and 25c per pound. The demand which has-been phenomenal, has sttsa tamped this increase, and the fortunate owners .of tea plantations have earned dividends in some cases of from 60% to 100%. All those engaged in selling the commodity—who •,have not been making any more profit have been hoping for over -production. , This is inevitable when such profits are being made and prices will then fall.: But tea Is still getting dearer, and no one can foretell just"•when the drop will come—whether in one year or longer. It may come • when Ieast,expected. Clever.

CLANRiCARD E.1EcTED IN 1588,;BURNEID IN 18,26. 'Castle. to be Rebuflt for Vis- count Letteellet at a Part- . Yeast Re 1idernce.' According -to recent dispatches from London Viscount Lascelles and 'Prin- cess Mary are -planning en, Irish resi- dence. It Is.,said that Lascelles has bean contemplating the move for some -time and that Princess Mary is even more eager ,than he to live among the people of Ireland for a few months each year, So now' the old Clanri- carde castle, which came to LaSeteleS on the death of his eccentric old uncle, the Marquis of Clanricarde, and which has been in the Clanricarcls family for centuries, is soon to be rebuilt and Will be used by the Lascelles ,family for a country home. 'Ireland as well as England is great- ly excited 'over the news, for, unlike his uncle, Lascelles is a general favor- ite with all the people surrounding his estate. .As for Princess Mary, she. has long been' loved tY the Irish people, and on all occasions• has hires to favor Ireland, Even when her -trousseau was being made she ea* to it that a greet 'part of it was made by the w o-% , men 'and girls of the land .for which she has always had such a tender re- gard., • Castle Burned in 1826. Theancient castle, svhicli came' to L• ascelles'on the death of his uncle, was erected in 1588 by the Earl of Clanricarde at a tremendous cost. " In . 1826 it was ,destroyed by fire and, since,nothing has been done toward rebuilding the structure. The outer walls •were not much affected by the fire, for they still stand straight and tall; a •majestic pile of stone fronting' on the silvery waters of Lough Dere; The castle, set in. the green acres,of park by which it is surrounded, will, when it is rebuilt, be a fitting borne for a princess. Acres and acres of emerald meadows stretch away from its enclosure, and in . the distance can be soon 'the winding river tranquilly making its way tiii•ough the- peaceful country. The little town -of • Portum- ma, where the castle is situated, is a very ancient and historic one. It lies on the Galway side ; of the Shannon and was once the chief pass and means•' of coninrunication between She - provinces `of 'Connaught and Munster. Many times the fainous -bridge re; sounded to the tramg. feet on their way to, mortal confiiat and many -valiant knights rode over it in days .that erelong past. ' Most of the Cianricarde estate, which was formerly the largest in area and extent hi Ii•efand, has now passed to the ownership of the tenantry. For many years a bitter fight was waged overthis estate, • Laseelles's much --- hated uncle having been one of the last of the. absentee holders of vast tracts of land to •consent to restore the estate to its rightful owners, Historic Associations. Like all the large estates is Ireland, Clanricarde castle has many historic associations. Poets._have rung its beauties and the strength and courage that its. great line of chieftains pos- sessed. For, until- it carne into the hands of the late marquis, its owners were looked up to by the people of Ire- land as - possessing all the attributes that make real men. And Lascelles is credited with inheriting some . of the traits of hisforbears, for he, too, has proved himself. Ills record during the World War was a splendid 'one. During the great coniiict he served with distinction and was weendecl three times, eaoh time insisting on going back to the trenches—a warrior that was worthy tb be a descendant of a fighting race. It is believed that the corning of the Lascelles family will do much to pro- mote a more friendly attitude from the people ' of the northern countriesto- ward their, soylthern neighbors. In fact, it is hoped that it :inay help `to- ward the settlement of the vexing boundary question for, when the form- er glory of the old castle is: restored, ;what man or al ofthoNort North. would refuse to come and participate in . the big affairs that will surely take place. And as North and South visit with each other under the• frIendiy deem -credo roof of the Lascelles ,sure- ly 'a better understar ling of each other and of each other's problems will -be the resalt. y ..
