And to Cous Belle, visiting there for the first time it seemed as though the three littl folks, Maisie and It itdred and b Jim, must surely be allowed to ru loose and that they would doubtless, after the first few hours of "company manners," prove annoying beyond the average. It was quite to her amazement, then that on the morning .after her arrival, with the wind blowing the snow into drifts out of doors, she was greeted by three sunny little faces. "Isn't it a lovely morning?" Maisie asked seriously:' "Why do you think it lovely?" Cou- sin Belle asked in surprise, I "Oh, there are so many nice things to do on a day like this," Mildred put in. "'That's why we're hurrying so to t dor dusting done. Mother's going 1 let us choose what we want from ,r surprise cupboard." "I'11 have to explain to cousin Belle," 1 ughed Mrs. Blakeslee as she stepped e bout briskly putting the livingroom in order. ""You see, I've quite a job on my hands, taking it all around. But I call these three the most important part of it. Much of the time they are happy out of doors or playing with their dolls. I've tried to teach them to armee themselves. When days like this come and times when other am- nsements grow tiresome and I am too busy to give them much attention, their happiness must be considered. These are the times when our surprise cupboard is a big help." "We're all ready, Mother," Mildred announced. '"We've dusted every cor- ner and taken care of everything, as neat! And we've all decided what we want to take first." "I want the Nose ark," Jim shouted, "I'd like the sewing cards," Mildred said. "I made .some new ones the other evening for a surprise," Mother re- turned, taking the box from the shelf. "You see," she explained to cousin Belle, "the nice box of sewing -cards they had for Christmas were soon used up. So now I watch for suitable dot - line pictures, collect bits of cardboard, Iay the two together and prick around the edge of the picture with a hatpin or big needle. The children love them. We have needles with big eyes, and Maisie has learned to thread them. Mildred can, too, unless the yarn is too heavy. We usorall sorts of odds and ends of colored thread and yarn.

DECORATING' CURTAINS. I saw a thrifty little woman make new curtains out of some old scrim af- fairs with faded stencil border. The material was eti11 good for consider- able wear but the faded borders spoil- ed the curtains' looks and ,apparently made them useless. But my friend gave the old curtains a careful laundering, boiling them to remove all stains end the remnant of tinting in the less sun -faded places. They were next put through a thin starch to which a Tittle strained ochre water had been added, to give the ma- terial a pretty eream color, Doubtless many other tinting colors would have. done as well. The resourceful housewife then bought a few yards of .inexpensive lightweight flowered cretonne and cut it into strips of a width to cover the old borders. The cretonne was neatly stitched to the scrim. When hong, th:e curtains were most. attractive and gave a fresh, cheery look to the room.--elosephine E. Taal.

On National Fish Day, which occurred on the last day of October, the hotels and restaurants of the "Dominion tea- tared special Ash menus, and such widespread organizations as tbe.din- Iing-ear nervine of rho railways direct- ed the attention of diners to vartoue epodes of Canadian fish. Thus all over .the Dominion not only was the consumption of fish increased for the ' spaee o$ a day, but the appetizing and nutritious product of Canadian waters 'was brought forcibly to the attention of Canadians, Tho institution is, of course, a na• tionat movement for the advancement of the Canadian fisheries, one of Cana- da's firstreseurces, which should, how- ever, by reason or tta potentialities, occupy a much higher place relatively, .. The consumption of fish : in Canada amounts to about 200,000,000 pounds per year, or about 25 pounds per capi- ta for each person In Canada. The Canadian Fisheries Association is en• tering on a campaign to endeavor to increase this average consumption 'to 50 pounds per person, or a pound per Person per week, a not excessive amount of fleh for each individual, but which' would mean a consumption of 400,000,000 pounds of fish per year, to the great benefit of the Canadian Ash - erica. Must Increase Exports. The great 'work of this institution, however, is that it must tend to bring morn closely home to the people. ot Canada the wonderful and unparal- leled resource they bays in their waters both coasta) and inland, and possibly, through them, impress the /maple of other countries with the same sense of magnificence. Whilst doubling the fish consumption of the Dominion would be an excellent move, especially in view of the: population's inevitable growth within the next few years, Canada must look abroad for consumers for the greater part of her. Ash, and they are the people who should know mere about this great Canadian resource and the high Quality of its product, Canada has to look to markets abroad for the disposal of eighty per cent. et her fish. Though Canadian fish exports are substantial they are relatively Insignificant in view of the tremendous possibilities of expansion. Already they go to practically every country of the globe and in value have shown a very gratifying Increase. They have increased from $15,500,000 M 1010 to $33,300,000 in 1921, $20,300,- 000 in 1922 and $27,600,000 in 1023. The slight decline in the past two years has been attributable to slump- ing values rather than to any falling off in output. Canada has the most extensive fish. Ing grounds In the world, and in the Damtalon's inland waters and those of both coasts are to ba found some six bundred varieties of edible fish,' of which not more than one bundred and fifty aro commonly known, and not more than twenty are really important tactors on the market.
