'33urning the candle at both ends" has never been a plan •highly recommended to give good results, figuratively speaking, but that any candle may have both ends burned in a legitimate and successful man- ner has been proved by one rose ourceful woman. In her home Dandles play an im- portant part in the lighting and dec- oration. Orange candles on a blaelt walunt highboy in the entrance hall give a touch of color and a welcom- ing invitation to further cheer: can- dles in sleeping rooms, here and there, add a bit of gayety: candles on the desk prove an illumination in more than one sense: and on the dining table a gentler and more gracious hospitality seems, in some way, to come with the subdued glow of candlelight. SALVAGING THE FRACTIONS. mist he ries-seri rather as luxuries must be classed rather aas luxurisa than as necessaries, and the expense taken into cnsideration. A charr- ed half -burned candle is a dismal looking affair. and yet in discard- ing these remnants one is, of course, doubling the cost of the original (muffle. Even if the initial expense of each one is small yet the waste is such that one often thinks twice before putting the match to the wick. Doubtless more than one house• wife has wondered if there were not some way to make use of the short ends which accumualte in amazing quantities. One woman 'whose sense of thrift forbade her from destroying them outright, found the stock stored in her pan• try ,drawer growing beyond all sensible limits, and set to work to devise some practicable way of us - plan which proved not only an ec- onomy but a pleasure as well. Most of the ends were just about a half length of candle, so that two of them, if fastened together, would Provide a candle of the proper size. After experimenting in various ways, she hit upon the following scheme. Wth a sharp knife she cut the burned ends off even. Holding these over a lighted candle until they melted slightly, she pressed Verne firmly together, and held them so until they hardened. The result was a candle of proper length but with a very weak spot at the join- ing place. This needed to be streng- thened, and this was accomplished by means of a decorative collar or band. CANDLE WAX FOR DECORATION Colored sealing wax has been widely used for candle decoration, and while it is very lovely for this, purpose, yet, at an average of 10 tents a stick, it scarcely fits into a program of strict economy. ends and cuttings placed in e Pen over a low fire melt quickly. After cooling a few minutes, this wax be- comes easily manageable and '0111V hn molded around the candle. :eel pressed into any design desired, re- swimr or irregular. This collar ,.e. ryes at el reinforcement, and whet hardened will make the candle ns strong there as at any other mast. To he attractive, it should le, at years ago the paint was tenth exten- sively used in the painting of dried weeds and flowers, and many homes still have packages of it on head, A plain uncolored paraffin collar should be •made and while shaping it in place the fingers should he dipped into the powder and slight touches of it -worked in. This paint comes not only in gold and silver, hut in flame, purple, blue, and many other equally beautiful shades. The end designed for lighting should be shaved off to a point with a hit of wick protruding, melted slightly, and shaped to a smooth surface. A decoration correspond- ing to the band will add to the beauty. VARIOUS EFFECTS Two candir-s of different colors may be pat together, and if the dec- oration at the joining is correctly done, the result will be very effec- tive. Likewise, two candles of dis- similar shape may be combined, a square one below and a round one shove, er twisted one beneath a round one. These few suggestions will prove only the start of a bit of pleasant adventuring in candle craft to any- one who is interested in working out original ideas and whose sense of thrift leads her to make the most of what is at hand. eis M,INTOSH RED APPLE FOUND BY SCOTSMAN J. McIntosh Discovered Favorite in Dundas County. Ottawa, Ont. Dec. 24.—The his tory of the popular McIntosh Red Apple is given by the Ottawa Morn- ing Journal in its special column, "A Fact a Day About Canada," as f dhows: "The story of the McIntosh Red is an epic. In the year 1796 John McIntosh, a Scottish settler in Dun- das, who lived near the St. Lawre- nce was wandering through his husband (of which he had more than any other kind), when to his surprise he saw several apple trees. With great joy (and areat labor) he transplanted the trees into 1114 clearing. The result, after years, WS the now famous McIntosh Red. 'Tt is believed by the fruit experts that the McIntosh Red was the re- sult of the self -planting of seeds from the Fameuse or snow cores ef which were dropped either by pros- pectors, soldiers, or home -seekers, who passed that way years before. It should be explained that apple seeds do not reproduce their kind. A planted seed always produces an- other variety with only fiant family reeembiance. That is why, when the experts or others want to coa- time- a variety, they use he grafting oroosss. John alcIntoeh used the frraftine proteese and kept the great Mein11 Red in a he itself. PARIS BECOMING SOBER. Principal Reason is Ban on Absinthe and Price of Liquors. Paris is rapidly becoming one of the moot sober capitals in the world, according to pollee statistics. In 1926 only 10,139 intoxicated persons were locked up by the po- llee, compared with 23,058 ln 1911 ami' 20,216 In 1013, leaf year before the war. Figures are avail- able for only the first ten months or 1927, when the number of "drunks" was 7,997, promising a considerable redection un the previous year. 'rhe number of cases in police in- firmaries for the insane due to alco- holism, what was 25 per cent, before the war, has fallen .0 10 per cent. while the special State Inebriates Home, which was in great demand before •the war, has now been abol- iebed, owing to lack of patients. Otto of the principal reasons given for this increasing sobriety is the ban placed during the war on absinthe, and never removed. Factors are the increased price of alcoholic liquors and the vogue of sport. WED ON SACRED MOUNTATN. • Ceremony Was Conducted With Due Dignity and Solemnity. The first wedding ceremony ever held on the summit of Mt. Fuji, Japan's sacred mountain, took place recently. The bride and groom of the novel matrimonial event were Shido Naka- mura, instructor of eeor omies at Kokugakuin TJniversity, Tokio, and Miss Ernie UtsumI of Koshibemura. The party, consisting of the happy pair. four relatives and friends, as- cended the mountain the morning of the wedding day. The bride's .and groom's sides parted on the summit, and each party went to get the Kin- meisui (golden water) and Ginmei- suf. (silvery water) at the two tam- ous fountains of Mt. Fuji. Sacred water was offered to the altar, and the ceremony was then conducted with due dignity and sol- emnity by the Shinto priests of the Sengen Shinto shrine on the summit. CRUISER HELPS BIRTH. Wireless Asks for Doctor to Be Sent to Santa Maria Island. Instead of dealing out death and destruction, the Portuguese cruiser Adamastor, has helped to bring lite safely into the world. The Adamastor when returning to Lisbon, picked up a wireless message, asking for a doctor to be sent to Santa Maria Island.
