' Milk puddings, for instance, should always be cooked slowly, because if is cooked quickly it wastes by evaporation. The same rule applies to soups, which should always be sina, mered in a covered vessel. On the other hand, if you are boiling biome for etock they should be boiled fast to extract the goodness'. After washing currants for calces or puddings they should, not be dried too quickly or they will lose some Of their goodness. The best plan is to wash a quantity at a time instead of wash- ing just the number you require for a " particular dish. Most of the moisture may bo re- moved by shaking the currants in a clean dry cloth kept for the purpose, and afterward they can be spread out on a large dish to dry. It is more economical to add pepper to such dishes as stews at the last minute. If you season them at first much of the aroma is lost in the pro- cess of cooking, and therefore more is required. It is not always economy to cook slowly, especially in the case of hari- cots or lentils. These take so long to cook that if you are cooking on a gas stove a great deal of gas is used Haricots, lentils and split peas should always be left to soak over night in cold water anli a small lump of drip- ping added to the salted water in which they are boiled. This helps to eaten them and cook in almost half the time. If you want to economize in plate and knife powder try rubbing knives, forks and spoons with a soft rag dip- ped in potato water.

' Roasting meat cannot be basted too much or too often, The part which is to be topmost in the dish should, when boiling be down - most in the pan. Salted and smoked meat should be put into cold water, brought slowly to the boil, then simmered. Water boils when it gallops; fat when it is still. Puddings' made with suet should be stiffly mixed. When ketchup is used, be sparing with the salt. Green vegetables. should be boiled fast, with the saucepan lid off. To leave bread or vegetables in stock or soup turns these eatables sour. Root vegetables should be boiled gently, with the lid on the pan. All vegetables, excepting old pota- toes, should be put into plenty of fast -boiling salted water. The liquor used in boiling meat or roots should never be thrown away. Soups and sauces may be made of it. Broiled meat must be turned often; put the cut side to the fire, A. handful of salt will often clear a fire from smoke for broiling. When baking powder has been used there must be no delay in baking. Thebars of n gridiron should be greaSed and made hot before being used. Meat from which soup or gravy is to be mud should be put into coldwater.

ROOFING FOR FARM BUILDINGS. Metal Covering Is Far Superior to the Old -Fashioned Shingle, The distinct advantages of Sheet Metal coverings for buildings of all classes has rapidly brought them to the fore during recent years, especial- ly so because of the development of mechanical appliances to perfect the manufacture of various types of metal shingles, sidiags, tiles, etc. Until recent year's however, the wooden shingle was the most popular on account of its durability and cheap - nese. Fifty years ago, when good stock was in abundance and labor theap, the farmers used to manufac- ture their own shingles by sawing, splitting and shaving, .and there are many roofs yet throughout the coun- try where eplit or shaved cedar shingles were applied fifty years ago. These shingles were generally about from % to Sa inch thick and time and weather have reduced the thick- ness of the exposed portion of these shingles to that of cardboard. Under the natural tendency of things, how- ever, the days of split or shaved cedar shingles are passed and in recent yeas or toward the latter quarter of the 19th century, the shingle became the product of the saw mill, and the manufacturers of shingles were not always very particular as to the kincl of stock they used and employed butts and all kinets of sap, and the outcome of all this was that the shingles wero put on the market at a price that Commanded trade, but gave little sat- isfaction. The farseeing farmer, how- ever, when he could afford it, employ- ed steel and it was a common thing and is to -day a universal practice to use metal in some form for covering their buildings. Until recent years a galvanized iron roof was a luxury, hut the intro -1 duction of modern machinery has re- duced the cost of galvanizing to a minimum, and through the perfection of up-to-date machinery, many safe and prosperous firms in Canada have I been able to put on the market a very, substantial and practically everlast- roof in the form of metal shingles at a very moderate cost. Tho great feature about the metal shingle and roofing is that it does not take an expert workman to apply it. Any unskilled buyer with a moderate degree of adaptability, a pair of snips and a hammer can apply these up-to- date shingles and roofing and sidings. The greatest virtue of the metal covering and one recognized by In- surance Companies is that the Tisk from fire and lightning is minimized by the use of metal roofing.. They now offer the farmers special in- ducements in -the way of reduced premiums to encourage the use of galvanized iron covering. The peo- ple themselves, recognizing the opin- ion of the best authorities, soon found that a building covered with an iron roof, which roof was connected -to the ground by a water -spout or even a wire contact, was absolutely proof against a lightning bolt, They also recognized that burning embers from another fire lighting on a metal roof did no damage whatever, and all these factors leads to- a larger consumption and use of metal roofing to such an ex- tent that the wooden shingle fire hazard is being steadily eliminated. turbance, the sheets are fitted with locks on all sides which give ample room for contraction and expansion, and metal shingles aro giving the same degree of satisfaction to -day as they did when applied nearly thirty yeans ago. When speaking of durability of a I metal roof, galvanized materials only are referred to. Farmers in this country nearly twenty 5 -ears ago ap- plied painted roofing, and the repaint- ing of this roofing, which in some cases should have been an annual af- fair was neglected, and the cense- ! quence was that corrosion set in, and their roofs rapidly deteriorated, but this is not the case with galvanized roofing. , In the rural municipalities, \there Rut hure •d not pi'oval- ont, a galvanized roof made of good material and properly applied should give satisfaction f h If e century at least. In fact, it will give satie- faction—the test of time has proven In the march of progress, some of the up-to-date farmers recognizing the many superior qualities of metal over wood aro now adopting a steel super- structure for their barns. This method of construction has many advantages over the old thribe constructed barn inasmuch as extra mow space, convenience in operating , hay fork and slings is obtained as well as far easier and quicker erection of building. These steel brace barns are supplied complete in every detail, saving the farmer the worry and thou- ' ble of assembling materials. HOW HE GOT 1015 DISCHARGE. Soldier Picked Up Bits of Paper Until He Found Right One. A man in the West Kent Yeomanry who fought at Gallipoli and is just back in London by way of Alexandria says that the following veracious talo is a favorite one with the lads out there, A certain Tommy suddenly develop- ed something like a mania for picking up loose scraps of paper. Wherever heaves, in the trenches or out of them, he spent most of his time looking for any stray bits of paper and gathering them up. This soon became a nuis- ance, but drastic orders to refrain and long terms of "CB." alike failed to cure him. He went on picking up bits of paper. Finally, in desperation, they sent him to France, thinking a change of scene might affect a cure, but, ar-1 rived there, his mania for gatheringi up paper fragments got worse instead , of better. Finally he was ranovedi to the base,. where he continued his paper chase. At last giving him up es a hopeless case, they sent him to London for examination as to the soundness of his mind. A board sat; on him. They decided that he was dotty and should be invalided out of thd. army. They gave him his dis- charge, written on a neat piece of pa -1 per. The soldier surveyed this with gratification. "Alma" said he. "That's the bit of paper I've been looking for!" Operation of the Clutch. A great many people who own and drive automobiles have a very hazy idea of the operation of the clutch, and to the brand-new motorist this part 00 the car is a mechanical DISAse tem The purpose of the clutch is to connect the motor with the gearset. As its names implies, it grasps or clutches the rotating crankshaft or flywheel and thus acts as the connect- ing link between motor and gearset. The cone crutch is merely a cork in a bottle arrangement, according to a writer in Motor Print. When the cork fits loosely in the neck, the bottle cannot be turned by rotating the cork, but if the cork is driven in tightly, turning it will move the bot- tle with it. In the cone clutch the cork is forced in by a spring and re- leased by depressing a pedal. The disk or plate clutch is Muse trated by placing a quarter between two nicicols, and holding these three . disks between the thumb and the forefinger. When no press,ure is ap- plied tho larger coin may he readily rotated with the fingers of the other hand, but when the three are pinch- ed together it is very difficult to turn the quarter. The contracting clutch is most de- selintive of the term "clutch" and resembles a breke. When the band is loose the clutch is dieengaged, and when contracted it grasps the drum tightly and thus drives the car. The expanding clutch likewise re- sembles an expanding brake. Tho cone clutch id efuriplest and consists merely of a conical member ' which fits into tho conical hole in the flywheel. A stiff spring forces the cone surface into engagements, and pressing the clutch pedal releases it. The neccaeity for a clutch arises from the fact that a gasoline engine, unlike an electric motor or a steam engine, cannot be started from rest under its own power. It is neces- sary to have the gasoline engine run- ning while the car is still, and then a device must be provided for trans - Another important factor in favor of the metal shingle and roofing is the weight. Wooden shingles would. average about 250 lbs., to the 100 sq. ft. Slate would average about 600 lbs., whereas a fleet class metal roof will not average 100 lbs., thereby les- sening the strength of the superstruc- ture and trueses. Likewise it has been proven beyond any shadow of doubt that heavy and wet snow will not remain on sloping metal roof, whereas it will attach itself to wooden shingles as readily as plaster will to lathing, and this snow load flounce sometimes 60 lbs. to the square foot. The question now is which is the most economical kind of metal roof to use when service is to be considered? Most of the farmers in the Dominion have in recent years used an enormous quantity of corrugated iron, but all the best authorities on metal roofing are unanimous in their opinion, based upon long experience, that the corrug- ated iron roof, while cheap at fleet cost, is not an economical material to use, inasmuch as all nail heads are exposed to the action of frost and stow, and after only a, few' years the whole roof is liable to become loose and be susceptible to high winds which would damage same. The metal shingle of to -day is the last word in roof covering; it is rain- proof, fireproof, lightning -proof, frost. proof; all nails used Lo apply a metal shingle roof are covered up with the succeeding sheet which prevents the BMW and frost from causilig any die.' Horseflesh Eaten in Hungary. Horseflesh and dogflosh are com- monly eaten by the lower classes in Hungary because of the food scarcity. There are three meatless days a week, and substitutes for meat, such as rice, are very scarce. The action of Germany in clearing Hungary of corn and flour earlier in the war caus- ed a dearth from which the country has never recovered. It also caused much bitterness against Germany. SCIENCE FACTS. A new motor atbachment for bi- cycles is carried behind the saddle and imparts its power by friction against the rear wheel. Official figures put Russia's petro- leum production last year at about 09,000,000 baerels, n gain of 2,000,000 barrels in a year. Around the central tube of a new antiseptic telephone mouthpiece is a container for disinfectants that gives off fumes in such a way as to kill all* germs that enter thedayien.

How Car is Started, A clutch must start the car smooth- ly so that no shook will be given to thei oar or its occupants. Conse- quently the cone surface is faced with leather or an asbestos; fabric. The give in these materials provSles a much gentler engagement than if bare meati wero used. At first the amount of power transmitted through these lightly rubbing surfaces is so small that the car does not start, but as the clutch cone movesi further the leather is compressed more and more; the pressure between the surfaces gradually increaths, and, ,as it does, the force transmitted becomes greaten, until it 1 sufficient to move the car. Still further engagement of the clutch cone causes the speed of the gar -sot mainsheft gradually to rise until it becomes equal to that of the crank- shaft, when the two revolve as ono without slippage. Multiple Disk Clutches* In addition to easy starting the clutch ithould be capable of con- siderable slipping as is required in traffic, and should have a small mass so that when it is released it will soon hese it momentum. With a multiple disk clutch half the disks are keyed to the clutch casing anti the alternate ones to the trans - minion shaft. Tills construction allows the disks a certain amount of endwise movement SO that when the dtutch is engaged they are forced tightly together by a spring. When the pressure of the spring is removed the clutch is disengaged. The disks aro made of steel, as a rule, although sometimes the alter- nate ones are bronze. They are thin and comparatively light, eo that gen- erally speaking this cluteb, slows down very quickly and permits easy gear changipg. Some mulitiple disk clutehem run in oil anti some are dry. When clutches are used without loil they generally have asbestos fac- ings on one set of plates. This clutch is also provided with cork inserts to improve the smooth action to the limit.

In other words, think positively; Those who have a social mind too often think in negative terms. They are mere critics constantly finding fault with the existing order of things, but never touching the community life for its improvement. Those Who have the vision of the thetal ideal of Jesus will never be harmed by constantly thinking of the best in life. They can never settle down in contentment. They can never be mere shallow opti- mists as they contemplate the gains which have been won. Such Con- templation will not lead them into the arm chair, but, as the earnest of what may yet be accomplished, it will inspire them to continued endeavor. Chris- tian social workers need constantly to think in positive terms. The earth is always pulling us down; we need ecmatant sight of the sten to pull us pp, The inhale of thildren should be filled with big things. They should be led out from their own narrow -fir terests into contemplation of the great needs of child life in the community. Such mental discipline will develop big lives and efficient social servants, tians.—Phil. 1. 1-11; 1-9. Golden Text, Phil. 4. 8. 1. Goging on to perfection. At Philippi, where the gospel was first preached in Europe, there was evid- ently an excellent Christian com- munity life. Paulcommends them for their good fellowship and does not re - bake them for any pagan sins. Yet lie would stimulate them to further I development. Therefore he twins his • attention to their mental habits, He urges them to get the mind that was 1 in Jesus. To this en cure suggests a discipline of thought. Was theSr weediness a tendency to lightmind- edness? Were they subject to being blown hither and yon by the varying winds of Grecian th.ought? He sug- gests to them the cultivation of the habit of fixed attention. 2. An attitude of mbid. The de- velopment of a definite attitude of mind is essential to the prosecution of any line of conduct, individual or so- cial. Before the social program of Christianity can be carried through the peoples of the earth must learn to think in Christian terms. The world cannot have peace while people con- tinually think about war. When the European war first.broke out the peo- ple thought mostly of its horrors. They were talking about it being the last world -war. They wero think- ing how methods of world -peace could be propeosed. Gradually their minds became accustomed to the awful hap- pening's of the battlefields. The tragedy lost its power to move them. It; is remarkable that. events which have thrilled the 'world before the war, are now regarded as very ordinary happenings. It is an outstanding ex- ample of the law that what fills the mind for any length of time will uleia mately determine conduct. The teach- ers of Christianity to -day must fol- low Paul's example and endeavor de- finitely to fix the minds of the people upon the groat principles taught bY Jesus. 8. Wanted—A social mind.

CLIMAX OF THE WAR 15 PASt THIS VIEW 15 STEADILY GROWe ING IN EUROPE, Belief That Struggle Cannot Last Twenty-two Months Longer. Two currents of thought are clear. ly defined in the European press cone cerning the prospects of the war. On is that Germany is certainly more and more anxious for peace, and the other that the allies do not propose to make peace except on very definite tame which will free all the invaded coun- tries from Teuton dominion and fon- ever prevent a rebuilding of Pruesian militarism that would make it again a menace to the world's civilization, There seems to be such an inherent contradiction between GerinanyV, wish and the allies' cletermniation that, one would expect a very long ethos.. gle. Nevertheless, there are signs that the conflict has passed its climax, and the sun of German absolutism is declining toward the night of its extinction, "Polybe" in the Paris Figaro makes a striking illustration. The Closing Act. He supposes an eXperieneed the- athegoor sudetenly taken to a play- house where a piece to being enactecl of which he never befare heard, The man would not hav to listen to more then two or three Ames to know whether the play was in its earlier or its lathy aete. Soon the spectator would recognize eithee"the third act, where the plot is perfected, or the foueth, in which the catastrophe is being prepared, "Polybe" concludes that the fourth not of the world tra- gedy is being unfolded, and deelaree that the signs of this fact aro multi- plying for any oae who has the habit ofrending events in the light of his, tory. Among the eyreotoms of Germany's failing power "Polybe" cites the cruel eloughter before Verdun in her repeated mail attacks, like the •ven- tures of a gambler who knows he is going to lose, and the Incoherence of her foreign policy, which he declares to bo an external manfeslation of profound anxiety. All these things aro considered signs. that the climax is past and that the war at least will not last twenty-two menthe longer. Another Sign, More outspoken views of German Socialists declaiming against the policy of spoliation and frightfulness are other signs of the trend of events, Herr Lieblinecht was only a little ahead of the time, Other German voices are being heard here and there. A Dutch nowspa.per, the Amsterdam - mar, has just published an article by 1)r, Johann Stilgebauer of Frankfort, in which he affirms that German de- . cadence began the day when Prussia conceived the pernicious design Of im- posing her maleficent sovereignty on all the Guinan states. Ile proteste against the annexation of Belgium, the purpose of which, he says, is to enrich the Prussian monopolists who govet the miaes of Hainault and the looms of Flandere. Prepare Rebuke. Again a professor in a German tulle versity declares, according to the Paris Tamps, that German scientist and other learned men have signed a manifesto protesting against the venation of the neutrality of Belgium and, the useless destruction committed during the war, Knowing fully that the document could not be publishe4. without great clanger of prison oa di te antatn4 feoorntsleaciutith authors, sibteh ace; rheaeol seated7 tinguished lawyer, so that through the attestation of its date, they can peeve, that they felt the duty of rebuking German frightfulness before such time as an open avowal would be con- sidered merely a desire to please the conquering allies; More Appetizers, Dr. Wilfred Grenfell, the Labrador physician, tells the following mime - mg story about one of his telps on komatik, or dog sled. It ought to be said first of all that Doctor Grenfell often has samples of aim - pressed eatables and nonfreezable foods sent to him. He and his guide were on the way to a distant village whore a small boy was reported to have "found him- self in his stomach," which means in the eemi-Chauceritin dialect of Labra- dor that he was afflicted with Menges - tion. The guide "cleft the split" sjelit the wood.), and prepared the luncheon of steaming tea and pork buns, one of the few natural foods that really cloos not freeze. "Where," inquired Doer Grenfell, "are the compressed -food tablets? gave you a month's supply this morn- ing), ansveereal the. guide impas- sively, "I. ate them after breakfast," and he hungrily lilt into his pork bun.
