There is but one sure way to can •vegetables and that is the cold -pack method. The vegetable, whether peas, asparagus, string beans, corn or greens, should be mined immedi- ately after picking before it has a Chance to wilt. Clean thoroughly. The next step is blanching. This means cooking for a limited time, one to fifteen minutes, in a boiling water or live steam. This is best done by tying the vegetable in a square cheesecloth of a size conven- ient to fit easily into your kettle. After blarehing the exact time men- tioned in the table remove the cheese- cloth containing the vegetable from the boiling water or steam and dip immediately into cold water. The cans, -tops and rubbers should be ready sterilized, that is, put in cold water, brought to a boil and boiled not less than five minutes. Pack your cans with the vegetable; it should not be allowed to remain in the cold water, merely dipped in and at once removed, and allowed to drip, fill with boiling water to overflowing, on the rubbers and tops, putp, turn' ng the tops down until they just toueh toed into the ward and foundthe Feline Minister a little souvenir, and, faithful Miss Daintry on guard weer seeing that he writes such a lot.

Why should t not the bed rooms be confined to the, upper stories or if it is necssary to have one•downstairs, let it be entirely separated from the living rooms. These little fa�irhnalities are safeguards to orderly living and should not be disregarded -without reason. In many cases our fare homes have grown and the rooms spread out in every direction. We all know old- fae hioned farm dwellings where it is necessary to go through one roam to get to a second room. These are very apt to be bed rooms, and there is no r privacy possible for the occupants of either room. The situation is even more f unpleasant when a bed room must serve as the entrance to a living room. When we plan the new farm house p let us have a' place where the daughter f may entertalli a young man caller and $ where she may have a simple party. The parlor should adjoin the living t room where the family gather, and, if e the dining -room is at hand, so much t the better; there will he more room s and conveniences either for a sit- o dawn supper. or for informal passing. e around of refreshments. p A farmer who had taken up a home- i stead, planned and built the home for himself and family. He did not stint b on quality or quantity of lumber, but t when his home Las finished he had a square structure of a story and a half, the lowers part divided equally into i four enormous rooms, without closets. s The windows were many and large— t they needed to be—to bight up the big fi interior. When the children are older a and the mother older also, and per- haps worn with the work of caring for that inconi enient home, imagine the steps that must be taken when company comes. Automatically, this poorly -planned house will make home entertainment either very hard to have or the flesh and blood of the mother and her girls will pay bitterly for the hard work.

It is one thing to fly long' distances over land, but quite a different platter when it comes to flying over water. In order to navigate the Atictntc•by airplane, the pilot must make exact and minute caloulatiolls before start- ing. These are taken the conjunction sith meteorological reports, and the atest scientific hnetliods .elf gauging the speed and direction of wind are employed. No e.isy platter this when some 1,900 nautical miles have to be aken into account.

At first thought it might seem an im- possible feat to collect the perfume of flowers after it has escaped into the air, yet it seems simple enough by a method that the Scientific American describes. Fresh, high -scented blossoms are placed in an uncovered bowl filled with water and set near the "collector," which consists of a common glass fun- nel with the small end closed. The funnel is filled with a mixture of crushed ice and salt and suspended in an upright position. Moisture from the air of the room forams on it and unites with the emanations -from the flowers. As the moisture collects it runs off the tip of the funnel into a receptacle. If this liquid is mixer with an equal amount of pure alcohol. the perfume of the flowers is pre- served indefinitely. nes ieiinard's Liniment Cures Diphtheria. • The French Government has select- ed about 140 famous sites along the whole front, which will be preserved in their present state as monuments of the war.

Many a farmer plana to build, or re -build his house "when the children grow up," br.t•tho years slip by until perhaps the boys have left the farm and the girls are saying "there is no way of having company at our house." Country boys and girls have to depend largely for recreation on the good times they have in each others' homes, and a good house to which company may be asked is the farmer's hest investment if he wants to keep hie children at hams and make the. place attractive to their friends.

Arrogant Prussian War Lords Have, Given Place to Delegates Signing a Dictated Peace. Most of us are familiar with the plc•• taro of the ceremauy of the procla.- illation of the Gorman Eniperoh' in the, Hall of Mirrors at Versailles in Deceru- bar, 1$70, `writes Maio? GeeeralaeSe Frederick Maurice, The central figure is justly enough not old King William,. the newly beeorne Emperor, but the big. bully person of Bismarck, who, dressed ill his white Cuirassier uni- form, with polished steel helmet on his head, clanking sabre at his side, legs in great jack boots reaching half way up the thighs, stands forward on the• front of the dais and reads the docu- ment, ;vbich announces to the world. that the King of Prussia has taken toe•-ealle himself the title of German Emperor. That was a great moment in Bis• - marck's life, for it marked with pomp 'and circumstance the triumph of his• Policy of blood and iron and the unity of Germany, which had been the goal of that policy. He had planned three wars to bring that unity about, and now in the third the hereditary enemy had been crushed, the mutual jealous- ies of the German States had disap- peared in pride in the common vic- tory, and the supremacy of Prussia had been established beyond question. There had been anxieties up to the last moment. Tile old King was none- too onetoo eager to exchange his hereditary crown for another diadem, which it more resplendent might, as one of the assistants at the eeremcny, von Emm- enthal, shrewdly remarks in his diary, prove to be a crown of thorns. Da. varia, Prussia's chief rival, had net given way with the best of grace 'arid on the very eve of the ceremony had insisted the title of Emperor of Ger• many, which hacl been proposed,. should. be changed to that of German Emperor, in order that all might know that the new chief was the head of an association of States, and that Bavar'�e,. retained her independence within 1 frontiers. This had aroused strong op- position in Prussia, but in the end Bis. marck got his way, as he usually did, - by the adroit use of threats and con. cessions. French Guns Within 7,000 Yards, It is strange for us, who have read of the bombardment of Paris from e distance of 70 miles, to think of thissere- assemblage of princes and powers in the Palace of Versailles taking place within 7,000 yards of the German front line trench* at St. Cloud, and within 9,000 yards .of the guns of Mont Valer- ien which contained the heaviest artil- lery then possessed by the French. Moltke had got wind of French. pre- parations for a sortie, wilielr in point of fact took place the very next day.. The French in the sortie won a foot- ing on Garche Ridge, to which the faithful guide now takes the tourist for a view over Paris across the Bois de Boulogne. There was alarm in Ver- sailles, Where the day before there had been rejoicing, and we find Bis- marck's Boswell, Moritz Busch, speak- ing of the French being within two miles and of talk in the new .En.- peror's entourage of packing up, but the day of the ceremony passed off peacefully enough, and as was fitting for the celebration of the harvest of the policy of blood and iron as it was of military ciisp]ay. The colors and standards of the German regiments besieging Paris gave to the scene a background of gold and silk, reproduced almost to the infinite as the refection in one mirror was repeated in another acmes the hap.. In front of the colors were grouped on the dais the princes of the German States, headed by the handsome figure of the Crown Prince Frederick. In ti:e centre stood the old King, and on the floor he front of hint Bismarck, Moltke, and Itoon, the triumvirate who had brought to pass the event which was being consu- matecl. • Flanking the dais on eitih "r side were two gigantic troopers, big monuments of the Prussian ideal: The body of the great hall was crowd- ed with a Maass of oflicers representing the tunics of thea German States, henceforth to bo united in the German Array, Contrast Between Then and Nova. 73ismarck gave Germany to drink the brew which he had concocted, and left the hall a proud and satisfied man, little dreaming how his draught would go to the heads of his Prussians, and by malcjng them drunk with power and lust would bring them back to the Ball of Mirrors in beggary and shame, The ceremony just concluded was very different. There were more black coats Chau uniforms, few ribbons aixd stars, and no gigantic troopers. The artist who is to paint the pic- ture, for We may assume the scene will be recorded on canvas for us, will not have as easy a task as lead his (German rival. Mr, Lloyd George, President Wilson and M. C"lemenceau will net suet the figure of Bismarck in his jack bents, though Foch, in his sky blue, may be able to ehrcllenge comparison with Moltke.
