Miss Tyrell, with her toes on the fend- er, gazed in a contemplative fashion at the fire. ' I didn't know—" began Fraser, who was still standing. He cleared his voice and began again..

(To be continued,) 'What the Doctor Orders. Often the doctor will say, "Give the baby barley water. Easily said, thinks the mother, but how does one make it? Or, worse still, she doesn't think at all and hurries home to cook up something that is far from the healthful thing the doctor intended. Here are a few recipes for foods fre- quently used in caring for the children. Barley Water,—Two tablespoonfuls of pearl burley, one quart of water. Boil continuously for six hours; as the water boils away, add more, keep- ing the quantity one quart. Strain through coarse muslin. It is well to soak the barley before cooking it. Barley Writer with Prepared Flour. ---One tablespoonful of prepared bar- ley flour, twelve ounces (one and one- half cupfuls) of water. Boil twenty minutes. Oatmeal Water, --One tablespoonful of oatmeal blended with one table- spoonful of cold water. Add speck of salt. Stir in one quart of boiling water. Boil three hours, adding water as it boils away. Strain- through fine sieve or cheese -cloth. After the sixth month, either barley or oatmeal water may be used in preparing the infant's food, instead of plain water. Earley water is to be used when there is loosenese of the bowels, and the oat: meal when the tendency is toward con- stipation. Barley Gruel.—Blend two table spoonfuls of barley flour with a little cold milk, and stir into one quart of scalded milk- Cook in double boiler two hours. Add a little salt and stig- ar. Strain. Oatmeal Gruel.—To three cupfuls of boiling water add one-half cupful of coarse oatmeal and one-half tea- spoonful of salt. Cook five hours in double boiler. Dilute with hot milk, and strain. Farina Gruel.—One tablespoonful of farina, one pint of water, one tea- spoonful of sugar, one-half teaspoon- ful of salt. Put into one pint of boil- ing water the salt and farina; cook for twenty minutes; strain, and add suf ficient milk to obtain the desired con- sistency. Rice Water.—Wash two tablespoon- fuls of rice. Add one pint of cold water and a little salt. Cook one hour. Dilute with boiling water, and strain. -Toast Water. Toast sufficient bread to -make,when broken into small pieces, two cupfuls. Add to this one pint of boiling water, and let stand one hour. Strain through cheese -cloth. Serve hot or cold. Flaxseed Tea.—Wash carefully two tablespoonfuls of whole flaxseed. Add four cupfuls of cold water (one quart), P Eye S ed ali&fs Tell ow T +l! Strength_gin Ey -sight 50 Week's e In M ny 1nstc Free P rescriptlgn •Tion Can Have a?illed and Use at Homme. Boston, Mass,—Viotims of eye strain had other eye weaknesses, and those who wear glasses, will be glad to know that Doctors and Bye Specialists now agree there is real hope and help for them. Many whose eyes were failing say they have had their oyes restored and many who once wore glasses 501 they have thrown them away. One man says, atter using it: 'T was al- most blind. Could not see to read at all, Nbw can read everything' with- out nay glasses, and my eves do not. hurt any more. At night they would pain dreadfully.

Drop ono Ben-Opto tablet in a fourth of alass of later and let It dissolve. With this liquid bathe the 'eyes two to. four times dally.

The jar is placed in an- other vessel containing cold water. Heat this slowly. Cook for two or three hours, strain and season. Value of Cheese in Your Diet. Canadian women have long regard- ed cheese merely as an accessory to the diet, and not as a staple supply- ing real food value. Irl fact, most women believe cheese, when used in large quantities is indigestible and harmful. Experts of the Department of Agri- culture have found that cheese is sel- dom a cause of physiological distur- bances, and may easily be used as the chief source of nitrogenous food. When cheese is served as a sub- stitute for meat or other staple—and this has been clone very successfully— housekeepers should regulate care- fully tate other part of the sane menu asethey now select vegetables accord- ing to the meat they intend to have, as green peas with lamb, With cheese crisp, fresh .vegetables, as lettuce, celery and water cress, should beused, with or without dressing.' Fruits, plain or in salad form, are also very good. It is not generally known that cheese has nearly twice as much pro- tein, weight for weight, as beef, and that its good value is more than twice as great. It contains 26 per cent. more protein than the same weight of porterhouse steak as purchased, and nearly twice as much fat. Biscuits. Things to remember in biscuit mak- ing: Select the best flout', Have flour thoroughly sifted. Have liquid chilled. Hhve shortening just soft enough to rub in with tips of fingers. After adding liquid, handle as lit- tle and as lightly as possible. Baking Powder Biscuits ---2 cups flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 cup milk and water (half each), 1 tablespoon butter, 1 tablespoon lard. Sift the flour, salt and baking pow- der together, twice. Cream butter and lard together, and add to the dry in- gredients, using the tips of fingers. Then add the liquid, mixing with a knife until you have a very soft dough. Place on a nixing board and pat out lightly until three-quarters of an inch thick. Cut out and bake in a hot oven for 15 minutes, This will make 2 dozen biscuits. ' Spices. Spices, which are used for flavoring, have a stimulating effect on the stom- ach. That they should be pure and of the best quality is absolutely neces- sary. For plantinbetween youngg Orchard trees, low -growing, hoed (TOsuch as tomato, potato, beets, etc,, should be chosen. Several of the most stately Morias of old England have been beetled into sleeping quarters for women making munitions.

Destruction of Village of Sanctuaries, Quite excluding the many : in Bel- gium, in northern France along three hundred and twenty-seven village churches have heen entirely destroyed by the Germans. I have not only seen some personally, but :have examined official photographs of each and every' ruin, and can affirm both the total and the destruction as without ataiota of exaggeration, writes I1enri Bazin from Paris, By "village church" I do not mean in any instance, and therefore do not include, places of worship in towns br cities of even relative numerical im- portance; but the simple, modest. re- ligious sanctuary of the "paysan," the farmer, the tiller of the soil—the con- secreted house of prayer where ga- thered small congregations within 327 areas of from one to twenty kilo- meters—about 327 centres. Modest Village Churches. These 327 village churches were mo- dest and without renown. Yet they were quaintly beautiful, in great part of ancient pious usage, devoted in many instances for three centuries to the constant worship of God. They veers quiet sanctuaries, containing family; records, records of birth, bap- tism, marriage and death, the .ex- votos of gratitude, commemorations of festival and sorrow, the 'stories in the life history of generation after generation of the same line; for all over lovely France there are families living where their ancestors settled centuries before, The Angelus Will Sound No More. The bell in its tower had sounded the Angelus, from a "great while since," the Angelus heard afar in beet - field and vineyard, waited for as a daily part of many a simple, beauti- ful, pious life, when the laborer, hoe in hand, ceased toil for a moment, made the sign of the cross, and bow- ed head in prayer. He had been bap- tized beneath the tower in which it hung, it had rung his marriage peal, it would toll at his burial as it had for his father's before him, as it would for his children after him. There is not a province in northern France that has not been desecrated and sacrileged. No Church is Spared. With these unnamed churches, as all who read know, have been destroy- ed more pretentious places of worship in towns and minor cities; the mighty cathedral of Arras, of which Victor Hugo has written, "It is the most beautiful and wonderful example of the Flemish -Spanish architecture of the thirteenth century"; the cathedral of Serails, the most lovely of smaller Gothic, specimens; the cathedral of. Soissons, a marvel of the Renaissance, to choose but three of the many within the line of barbarity's invasion and re- treat. No house of God is intact that touched its paths of evil. There re- mains to it but the completion from afar, of the destruction of thecaihe- dral of Rheims. The Torture of Rheims. If they choose, the Germans could demolish Rheims cathedral to -morrow. Thirty shells a minute for even a lit- tle while would crumble all that is left of this most noble of Gothic monu- ments. But they choose instead the systematic deliberate dropping now. and then of a shell upon the north and south fronts and buttresses. They never bombard any other portion of the city of Rheims, And they never allow a week to pass without shelling the wounded cathedral; some weeks many and some weeks few; one at a time always, one a day or one in seven,. days, well placed and truly aimed. As constant water will wear away rock, so constant 'periodical shell will eventually ivear down the grievously scarred but still standing towers and trellised walls and buttresses. When the final straw of strain comes the Cathedral of Rheims will fall. The world will read of its falling, when, as with a great eigh, a sigh reaching into the.heavens and across the ages, this most glorious house of ' God crnmblos and crashes to the conpany of ruin about it.
