Food Costs The cast of foods of all kinds has been very much reduced in the last year or so. Has the cost of feeding your family been reduced to the saiue. extent? Are your bills at the end of the month much less? If you have not noticed, just check up and see. It is very probable that they are not. lessened to the sante extent, as the. lessening of food costs would justify. it .is a peculiar thing, but we uncon- sciously, almost' automatically, expand or contract, as food prices go up or down. When eggs are expensive, we use of them. As they get cheap- er, we stale cakes calling for more eggs, we add an 'extra one to the pudding, or sauce, or whatever it is we happen to be making. If they are expansive we lessen the number used, sometimes doing without altogether. When butter is dear pound cakes and rich foods are unconsciously put by the board. When butter is cheep, we make richer cakes, add an extra tablespoon to the vegetables and so on. More Luxuries Used When canned lobster comes down in price, it seems so cheap that we are tempted to indulge more fre- quently, using it possibly, in place of the salmon, which is cheaper. Sal- mon seems so reasonable that we use a pound can of it, instead of stretch- ing out a half -pound can and making it do. When mushrooms are a third less, they seem so cheap, we are then tempted to have them oftener. When. tomatoes are cheap, we cut thicker slices. Fruit and sugar have been so cheap this year that most everyone that I know, has been doing an unusual am- ount of preserving, canning and pick- ling. Haven't you, yourself, more bot- tles on the shelf, than most years? Most of us hate to see food wasted, so we sometimes do more than we in- tend, in order to save it. And so it goes all along the line, Food is cheaper, but it does not cost very much less to Iive. We cut out our pattern according to the cloth, and adjust ourselves to changed con- ditions. We may spend about the sante amount of money, but our fam- ilies must benefit by the better meals that we are able to serve.

'There are not many of us, who are not irritablewhen we are tired, and very few children can es- cape it. The understanding mother will over -look a lot of irritability and make things as easy for the child as possible, until it becomes adjusted to changed conditions.

Combination Grilled Dinners High class restaurants frequently serve what they call • combination. grills, and they make an interesting dinner, with a special appeal to the men -folic. There is no reason why the restaurants should have a mon- opoly of the idea, because they taste just as good at the home dinner and are not at all difficult to prepare. The grill or broiler is usually used to cook these combinations but they can be cooked byl frying pan if itis not convenient to use 'a grill. As a rule, at least four foods are served, but the number may be lessened for hone consumption, if desired. The following are some of the combina- tions that we have cooked at home and enjoyed. Lamb crop, Kidney, Bacon, Tomato Lamb chop, Sausage, Mushroom Pork chop,. Sausage, Apple Pan- cakes Ham Tomato, Pinapple . Sausage, :Bacon,' Bananas Bacon may be added to any of the ones in which it has been omitted. Mushrooms should be large and. cook- ed whole. Tomatoes are unproved by covering with buttered crumbs be- fore patting in the oven.

By error this stirring little hymn is often ascribed to the authorship of the Rev. Sidney Dyer, a native of the Un- fled States, born in New York state in .1814, who became a Baptist minis- ter, in Indianapolis, and afterwards secretary to the Baptist Publication Society, Philadelphia. Mr. Dyer wrote several hymns, one entitled "Work whilst it is day," beginning "When faint and weary toiling," pub- lished in 1871. In compiling his "Sacred Songs and Solos" Mr. Sankey following other makers of hymnals accepted their mistake confusing this hymn with that one by Mr. Dyer, no doubt be- cause of the title it bore. At this very _moment there lies be- fore the writer of 'these articles on Hymns, etc., a. neat little book en- titled "Leaves from th.e Blackwoods," published by John Lovell, of Montreal in 1862, without the author's name. which contains the words of our hymni exactly as reproduced herewith. This volume of poems, all of con- siderable merit, was the work of a young lady of twenty-six years of age named Annie Louisa Walker, then re- siding in Montreal. She was the daughter of Robert Walker of Kiddermore, Staffordshire, England, and while living in this city published in Canada newspapers the poems she afterwards collated into the book printed by ;the old publishing firm of John Lovell which still enjoys a prosperous existence. Our hymn was probably written in 1854. At least it was published in a newspaper in that year, and from thence made its way some years later into Ira D. Sankey's collection of Sac- red Songs and Solos, with at first no writer's name attached to it. After- wards it was as had been said, boldly. accredited to Mr. Dyer. In "Leaves from the Backwards" its author's title for it is "The Night Cometh," and from its position among poems relati: 'i the "Evening Night" and "The Dying Summer," evidently had intimate connection with the idea contained in the Divine Master's teaching: Work while it is called to- day for ye knew not when the night. l Cometh, The fact should be borne in mind when considering the claim of some socialists, that this is the one hymn which specially appeals to them. because it leaves 'religion out of the question, and refers simply to the glory and beauty of mutual labor! Those who know anything of , the subsequent literary work of Miss Walker, who in 1844 married Mr. Harry Coghill, her magazine articles, novels plays for children, and espec- ially her edition of the "Autobiogra Ay and Letters d Mrs. Oliphant," her cousin, must agree that she al- ways worked and wrote religiously, with a heart devoted to the service of her God, and the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. No doubt there was in her mind that great saying of St. Augustine, "Laborare est Orare" -- "to "to Labor is tip -pray," as also our Lord's words:—"I must work the work of Him that sent' ate, while it is day, the night cometh when no man can work!,' An edition of Mr. Coghill's early and later poems appeared in 1890, which contains our hymn, and bore the title "Oak and. Maple," a graceful reference to the fact that it was written Al bore reference both to England the land of the Oak and to Canada the land of the Maple, The tune "Diligence" was written specially.for the hymn by the accom- plished U.S. musician Dr. Lowell Ma- son, who gave us the popular tunes Olivet to 'My faith looks up to Thee' Bethany or Excelsior to 'Nearer my God to Thee,' Missionary to "Green, - land's Icy Mountains," etc, , ' A hymn which might be called sup- plementary or complementary to the one written by Miss Walker, is set to the same tune in some of the hymnbooks which has for its first line "Work for the,, days is conning," and for its two last lines:— "Not to the dark. -we're terring But to the day we go," Its theme is set down as "The night is far spent, the day is at hand,' and the name of the writer' is not given, 'I'omrny- "Ma, 'do I have to wash my face again before dinner.” Mother—"Certainly, dear."

Josie McCarthy was a spinster, fifty.. Seven years old,and although time had not endowed her with Charm, he had generously lavished her with avoirdupois. • Josie lived all alone on the top floor of a three-family brown stone house on Oliver street. She had lived there for 29 years. Everybody on the street knew who she was and where she casae from. They even knew, to a gredt<extent, how she spent her time. But nobody knew Josie; until orie day, the I'Iochmeyers moved Into her house. One [.Horning Mrs. 13ociuneyer's bell rang furiously; "Who is itT' she shouted good-na- turedly at the top of her lungs as she flung a spoonful of salt into the soup. "Candy for Miss McCarthy i canle back from the other side of the door.' "Next 'floor," Mrs. itoehrneyer itr formed the messenger. "Miss McCarthy lives upstairs." "\Te11, land's sakes!" she remarked to- herself, --"That's a surprise. Who could be sending Josie some candy? It ain't Christmas." As soon as she heard the messen- ger's footsteps going past her dour on his way down, she put out the fire under the soup and ran upstairs. Not that she expected to be invited is to share the gift, but Mrs. Hnchmeyer had an uncanny instinct for news and knew that she would discover nothing about the mysterious box of candy by staying downstairs and peeling onions, To her surprise Josie's door was slightly ajar, and she could hear her voice issuing forth in dulcet tones. Mrs. Hocluneyrer grinned complacently to; herself and sat down to Listen on the steps. "Yes, dear," Josie was saying with 0 giggle, "I just received your lovely box of chocolates.

Hochmey- er could stand the suspense :no longer and decided to march boldly upstairs to Josie's apartment, In answer to her knock, the door was opened by a transformed Josie, clad in a brilliant Bink silk negligee and exuding an overwhelming odor of perfume. The apparition transfixed Mrs. Hochmeyer. "Come in," cooed Josie sweetly. The visitor did not wait to be asked again. She stepped into the parlor and pounced. on •a chair before Josie could change her mind. - "I'm so tired," yawned Josie as she settled her voluminous self on the -ofa, while Mrs. Rochmeyer's search- ing eyes bad already discovered two used wine glasses and a half empty five -pound box of candy on the table. "I'ni so tired, we were up so late last night." "We?" queried her neighbor politely. "Yes, me and my gentleman friend..

A few days later Mrs. Hochrneyer Went upstairs'again; but this time she really had to borrow some matches.
