The Artifloial Article Does Not Compare With the Natural. The rubber age is dawning. It would be hard to exhaust the list of articles for which rubber is used at the present time, and still more difficult to complete a list for which it might be used were not its pre- sent price prohibitive. There is no reason to expect an immediate fall en the price, because artificial rub- ber does not in any way compare with the original and rubber culti- vation is still an infant industry. The new plantations, says the Chi- cago Tribune, cannot influence the output for some years to come. Rubber is the product of the co- agulation of a milky juice which can be obtained from certain trees growing mostly in tropical climates !Many varieties of trees yield this milky juice or latex when the ex- ternal bark is damaged or cut. Some are forest trees growing in wild luxuriance in tropical forests. Some favor moist, damp climates, \ -the plants of low-lying valleys and uplands of the Amazon district, which yields the celebrated Para rubber, while Saltilloa elastica of Mexico and Central America, al- though favoring a hot, moist cli- mate, is able to withstand a dry season if not too prolonged. To collect the latex in the Ama- zon districts incisions are made by means of a small axe in the bark of the tree. When properly tapped the tree can bo bled at intervals, yielding a good supply of latex without permanently damaging it. The collectors have to penetrate into the tropical forest, which in the valleys of the Amazon is at Ones a fever -ridden swamp, but yields the incemparablo Para rub- ber. When rubber trees are culti- vated in accessible districts tho co- agulation and extraction of the crude rubber from tho latex can be done on the spot. The collector, having penetrated sufficiently far into the forest and selected his field of operations, makes incisions in the bark of the trees and allows the latex to col- lect in small cups. The latex is emptied int() a large dish and the operator dips a wooden paddle into the dish and hods it in the smoke issuing from a conical -shaped ves- sel opened at both ends and placed over a small fire. Tho (teat and smoke coagulate the latex, drive off the moisture, and leave a thin layer ofb the sur- face crude rubber on - r face of the pallet. The operation is repeated until the rubber thick- ens in a rounded block. t "My boy, Freddie," said the fa- ther of the family, "is an inven- tor." "Ah!" said the friend.

A. MacDONALD REOCH THE S. S. LESSON INTERNATIONAL LESSON, AUGUST 15. Lesson VII. Paul's Third Mission- ary Journey—Ephesus. Golden Test, Acts 19: 17. I. Paul Enters Upon His Mis- sionary Journey, and Strengthens the Older Churches.—Acta 18: 22, 23. Whtil ,Pau1 had comp! ted his second missionary journey he went up to Jerusalem to pay his respects to the mother church there, and doubtless, as at other times, he told tho wondrous store of the work of God in bringing so many Gentiles into the kingdom. Here he would remain long enough to complete his vow, the apostle to the Gentiles in loving accord with the mother church of all. Then he went down to the home church which had sent him forth. Here he was always welcome. Here he told the story of his missionary adventures, and the fruits of his labors. It is ever a blessed thing for the home church to hear from her missionaries, and the riission- aries need to come in contact and fellowship with churches. The Mis- sionary Boards are wise in having their misisonaries come home every few years. This is probably the last time Paul was able to visit Antioch. If. Ephesus : Which Paul Made His Headquarters for Nearly Three Years of Missionary Work. -- Ephesus was not only the capital of the province, but was the city of the greatest importance in all Asia Minor, and the principal empor- ium of trade in the East. It was called one of the eyes c f Asia, Smyrna, forty miles to the north, being the other. The city rtood on the south of a plain about five iniles long from cast to west., and three miles broad, washed on the west by the Icarian Sea, an arm of the Aegean. The (.'olosscum, or Amphitheater, w'ns the largest ever built by (creeks, and the Temple of !liana was in its crowning glory, and one of the Seven wend( rs t.f the world. 111. Paul Find:. an Undeveloped Church nt Ephesus, and Brings Then Into the Fulness of the Gos- pel Light.—Acts IS: 24-19 : 7. When Paul left Corinth at the dose of his second journey, his friends Aquila and Priscilla went with him as far as Ephesus. Before Paul entered upon his longer work at Ephesus there came to Ephesus a Christian Jew of great eloquence (v. 25) knowing only the baptism of ,lohn, the gospel of repentance and forgiveness, and Christian moral°, and of Jesus who pro- claimed the kingdom of llencen nt hand, and worked many miracles of love. and died un the crass. The story which was told in the earlier gospels. Pelt of the baptism of tie spirit at Pentecost, his marvellous gifts ' • for 1 • of power and light and salvation, of rich experience, of fulnessof life, which came in overflowing abundance., for scree reason Apollos had not heard. These things Priscilla and Aquila expounded to him. Then he went to Greece (v. 27) and helped them touch which had believed through grace. Of this Paul once speaks in his letter to Corinth, "I planted, Appallo watered, God gave the in- crease" (1 Cor. 3: ts), IV. Paul's Preaching and Teach- ing.—Vs. 8-10. As usual, Paul be- gan with the Jews who were best prepared to receive the gospel. 8. And spake boldly. It required no little courage to take the unpopu- lar side, which.had so often brought him into trouble. Every preacher must sometimes risk his life and reputation and worldly support, and preach boldly at any cost. Isut trust see to it that he risks them in the cause of truth. Disputing, R. V., "reasoning," arguing with "logic on fire," and persuading, using every legitimate influence and motive, to induce them to re- ceive the gospel of the kingdom of God, the real kingdom which all the Jews were expecting, and which had already begun to take on its perfect from under Jesus our King. V. Two Ki ids of Testimonies to the Power and Value of the Gospel. —Vs.11-12. In addition to the holy conduct and noble spirit exhibited in the ordinary daily life, th ore were two outward and visible testi- monies to the truth and power of the gospel. First,. Miracles of Healing and Help. 1I. God wrought special miracles. "Extraordinary with which the deed: of the Jewish exorcists could not be compared." ---Exp. Greek Test. By the hands of, the instrumentality of, Paul. in Ephesus, the center of magic and witchcraft, special power was given Paul to work miracles that conquered them in their strong- hold. Ne actually did what the sorcerers only pretended to do. The Ephesians were so hound up in belief in magic that it seemed necessary to show that the gospel was might- ier than these other powers, which came from 8'tan the father of deceit. 11 SHE OBEYED ORDERS. Cnrelessnrss in the use of langu- age is quite as reprehensible as care- lessnes in cookery, and with a lit- rrnl-mind servant in the case, it may accomplish the same results. :1 writer tells of a Southern wo- man who was leaving her home in a burry tend wanted to remind her negro :laid of some apples baking in the oven. "Watch when the apples burn, Chloe :" site called, as she was leaving the house. When she returned there was a pan of burned and charred apples on the kitchen gable, but Chloe was pieced and happy. '• hon apples burnedi at just eleven o clock this morning. ma'am.- said Chloe, cot !recently. oticed the t mo pa ticular." Mone than twenty years ago— while school children in eastern Canada were imbibing inaccurate knowledge of the Mackenzie River, peopling its valley throughout with Esquimaux and wolves alone— sturdy Scotch factors of the com- pany and cultured r rench mission- aries were navigating over 1,000 miles of that river in their own steamers. Still the maps made by these men then consisted mainly of dots for a fort here and another there, with a lcng trail or a river between. Already a new order has inter- vened as regards the geography of the country, and with multiplying numbers of free traders and set- tlers, railroad and land surveyors the map has undergone radical changes. The important step just taken by the Government in guaranteeing hundreds of miles of railways into the north was foreshadowed last year by a publication of the Edmon- ton Board of Trade concerning the outland trails of this region. This work, begun for local use, has had results outside of Alberta. Numerous inquiries received in Edmonton about the possibilities of the Edmonton route to the Finlay River gold fields, together with the increasing number of people going into the north country, last year roused members of the Board of Trade to a sense of their responsibi- lities as residents of a city that will always be the meeting place of northern and western trails. They selected J. K. Cornwall and H. M. E. Evans, two men to whom the outland trails are open books, to make a report, and this when com- pleted was pronounced the most striking document yet published by any western body. The time table is a unique affair -a concise and accurate showing of every main trail and route; THE MODE OF TRAVEL, by steamer or scow, wagon, pack train or dog train ; the meals, freight, time schedule and sleeping accommodation. The report combines the primi- tive, the frontier ---the stops at Johnnie Stony's, at Shaganappi and Lewis's half way house. The ter- ritory covered in from Edmonton north by the Athabasca and the Mackenzie to Fort Macpherson near the Arctic shores- 1,954 miles from Edmonton—nnd from Edmonton northwest through the Peace River country to Fort Graham in the Finlay district --798 miles. It was suggested in this report that the northern trails by river, mountain pass and plains would afford delightful holiday outings for men a ho know the certain pleasures as well as difficulties of back coun- try travelling. In fact, when the Alberta and (seat Waterways Rail- way is completed from Edmonton to Fort McMurray a line of steam- ships will he put un the northern rivers and the 2,(M)0 mile trip to the Arctic and its midnight sun can then bo made within three seeks. As yet no one has taken the trip down to the Arctic from Edmonton for pleasure, but each year a grow- ing number of scientist., surveyors and writers make the trip. With the exception of n portage sixteen milt long, when passengers are driven in carriages and a stretch of 25n toil( s in open ?cows, the trip is mac►e in the comfortable stearners of the.. llielein'. Bay ('e mpnnv. The • portion of the trip mane ie scows is perhaps the most interest- ing, because there the heavy boats are hauled by ropes up the Atha- basca Iliver by men "tracking ' along the banks of the ri.er, as thev have done for the LAST TWO CE TURIILS, in the pursuit of the fur trade. This mode of travel is scarcely to be seen anywhere else in the lccst now, though formeety general. A comparison of altitudes may be helpful in estimatietg the future of the little known posts In northern Alberta and the Mackenzie dis- tricts. I is notvery generally It ry get s y known that Edmonton, Manchester and Berlin are situated almost in tl.e saute latitude, that St. Peters- burg is 450 miles further north than Edmonton and seventy miles nearer the Arctic Circle the;: Fort Chip- pewyan, or that, Duuvcgan and Peace !liver Landing are in the same latitude as Copenhagen or Glasgow, but with the added advantage that they are swept always by the warm winds driftng through the Rockies' peaks. Fort Churchill, which a Hudson Bay railway will some day connect with the Peace River posts, lies about seventy miles south of St. Petersburg. York Factory, on the shore of the Hudson Hay, and like Fort Churchill, ut the mouth of a fine river, lies even more than 200 miles south of St. Petersburg. Sibera, which was once popularly believed to be a barren succession of sub -Arctic steppes, has proved to be a land of great agricultural wealth. its wheat and its dairies aro alike noted. The heart of the great dairy region there is Tobolsk, which is in the same latitude as FortVermilion. Yet in all northern Europe there is no place so favored as the western half of the Peace River country, whore the warm chinooks come through the moun- tain passes from the Pacific and keep the climate se mild that cattle feed on the open range all winter. It is in this region that an immense ranch has recently been secured by Williams, the cattleman, who suc- ceeded ex -President Roosevelt in the ownership of his Western ranch. Already at, Fort Vermilion, which lies 500 miles north of Edmonton and railways, Sheridan Lawrence threshes each year with his own steam thresher from 9,000 to 10,000 bushels of fine wheat. SUMMER SALADS. Cherry Salad.—Remove the stones from the fruit, and fill the cavities with whole blanched al- ntonds or finely chopped nut meats. Mayonnaise flavored with marasch- ino is served, and cream cheese balls mixed with chipped maras- chino cherries and rolled in pow- dered nut meats are placed on the side of the dish in which the salad is served. Delicious Salad.—For a delicious salad make a Is mon jelly with less sugar than when it is used for des- sert, add English walnut meats, and stiffen in small molds. Before serving turn the jelly on to plates covered with shredded lettuce leaves arranged in neat fashion and servo with mayonnaise. Cabbage and P. anut Salad.—Pre- pare two cupfuls of finely shredded white cabbage and one-fourth cup- fti: of finely chopped or ground pea- nuts. Pour six tablespoonfuls of olive oil into the salad bowl, add two teaspoonfuls of vinegar, a level teaspoonful of salt, and a salt - spoonful of pepper. Beat until thick ; stir in nuts and cabbage. 4 DO YOU BLAME HIM? "I told my husband all tho mean things Mary told me about her husband." "Was 21, he tickled 1" "I should say not.

Milburn Co., Limited, '1 pronto, Ont. HOMEMADE ICE CREAM. Before setting about to make ice cream give heed to this statement by an authority on the care of milk. He says : "!Whenever you hear of cases of 'ptomaine poison' from eating ice creast you may bo certain that the poison came from the germs left in the seams and bott.•ms of ice cream freezers which were not properly scalded. Dirty, rusty ice cream freezers breed mil- lions of germs and are the real cause of illness from eating ice cream." '!'herefore, scald your freezer well, both can and dasher, before you freeze your cream. Place the can in the pail, fitting all the parts together and turning the crank to see that everything works, before you begin. This will be a time and temper saver. To prepare the ice for freezing the cream place it iu a canvas bag and pound with a mallet until fine. When the cream is ready fill ,. space between can and pail with alternate layers of ice and salt. Use rock salt, one measure of salt to three of ice. The trick about freez- ing is to turn the crank steadily until the cream is stiff. Then re- move the dasher, put a clean cloth over the top of can and a cork in the hole in the cover. Drain tho water from the freezer, repack, and allow the cream to stand an hour ur more. To Make Good "Makeshift." — Sonletinies an occasion arises when you wish to make a small quantity of ice cream, just enough for an in- valid or when one friend drops in to luncheon. You do not feel equal tc, using the family freezer, but would like to know of a good "makeshift." You will find that a small tin can with close fitting cover (cans you buy cocoa or various arti- e:es of food in) will do nicely. Fill the can with the cream mixture. Then set it in the middle of a deep dish and pack around with alter- nate layers of ice and salt. Be sure the can is covered clssely. Then lay wet cloths on top and set in a cool place. It should freeze solid in from one to two hours, ac- eording to the amount of mixture to be frozen. Cut into the thick layers on the sides of the can once or twice while it is freezing. Whip- ped cream frozen this way is de- licious. One of the best mixtures for this "individual ico cream" is the Philadelphia. This is uncooked, pure, sweet cream sweetened and flavored. For one pint of scalded sweet cream allow three-quarters of a cup of sugar, one teaspoonful of vanilla, and one tablespoonful of brandy if you desire. The whites of two egos beaten stiff is a valuable addition. Vanilla the "Family" Dish. — Should you desire on special occa- sions to serve ice cream in indi- vidual molds take the ice cream fro:n the can when it is stiff, pack it in the little molds, seal the edges cf these with melted paraffin, re- pack in ice, and salt. To keep ice cream a long time cover the freezer with thick wet cloths or towels. Vanilla is the ieo cream most used for the family table. The simplest way to make it is by the rule given for Philadelphia cream. Cooked vanilla ice cream is made by using two cupfuls of hot milk, three- fc earths of a cupful of sugar, ono egg, one-eighth teaspoonful salt, one pint of cream, two tablespoon- fuls of vanilla. Mix the sugar, salt, and beaten egg and add the milk gradually while stirring. (Cook in the double boiler for twenty min- utes, stirringrn h well. 1't cool add the cream and flavoring. Strain and freeze. To make chocolate use the same recipe: Melt two squares of cho- colate and pour the hot custard slowly on it, then cool before ad- ding the cream. For fruit ice creams, strawberry, raspberries, peach, use either recipe for vanil- is ice cream, adding ono cup of fruit trashed and one-half cup of sugar to the cream. TIIE LAUNDRY. Dyeing Lace.—To dye lace or em- broidery to match colored dresses put a little oil paint, the nearest color of your dress, in a cup and dissolve in gasoline. When dissoly- ea add enough gasoline to cover your lace and test a piece of the Isere. If too dark. add more gaso- line ; if too light add more slimily - cd paint until the right shade is obtained. Tho odor will soon leave the lace and the dye will not wash out. To Restore Light Dregs.—elf yen have an old. faded party dress or waist of net or thin silk, buy the tube paint used for painting, rnix with gasoline and inerlerse article to be dyed. Be sure of the shade before dipping. Try and get a small sample from sem•' part of dress to try the color. 11 ton vivid add gasoline and naris paint. if too pale.

If the icing fails to harden on your cake, put it in the oven for A few minutes. It forms a thin crust which in no way destroys the deli- cate icing. Put a window shade in front of pantry shelves. If they are unpro- tected by doors it will keep out the dust much better than curtain on a rod. If you want to rush the oontents in the inner vessel of your double boiler, add some salt to the water, cane -half teacupful to two quarts of water. Eggs may be kept from Septem- ber until March by wrapping each separately in newspaper, putting in pasteboard boxes in a cool place and turning each day. A split banana on a lettuce leaf, half a dozen cherries, sprinkled with blanched peanuts, and served with a salad dressing is a refresh- ing and pretty salad. When pressing dark linen frocks it is just as well to cover the board for tho time with a piece of dark material, and thus avoid pressing white lint into the material. Iced pepper is peculiarly obnoxi- ous b) vermin of all sorts. Made into tea with boiling water and ap- plied hot to shelves and floors it is as effectual and more convenient than when used dry. Ham !nay be kept from getting hard and dry on the outside thus: Take some of the fat part of the hank and fry it out. Let it get hard, then spread on the cut end of the ham, half an inch thick.
