Summer Hints A few slices of cucumber and a lit- tle stewed fruit, added to the fresh Fruit of your fruit salad, will give it an added piquancy which everyone will appreciate. Chopped nasturtium leaves between • thin breadand-butter makes a sand- wich for those who like something rather spicy and hot in flavor. A fourpenny brick of ice-cream served wth stewed fruit or fresh straw- berries or raspberries makes a party .sweet for two. Cream cheese and chopped olives be. tween brown bread-and-butter make a tasty ate nourishing luncheon sand- wich. For a quick last minute sweet cut a banana down the middle and spread with jam, then serve with whipped cream on the top.

A fresh un- cooked egg, with the white and yolk beaten separately, Put a teaspoonful of sugar and the juice of half a lemon into a geese with a little of the beaten white of the egg, then a squirt of soda water, then more white and more soda until all the white is used up, • Then put in the beaten yolk in the same way with more soda water. Drink this while it is stilt fizzy, and see bow much better you will feel, Have you ever tried stewing dates in just the same way as you stew prunes, with a little lemon rind e Cold and served with custard they make a sweet which is very refreshing. Flowers gathered at a picnic are often found to be withered when they arrive home. Don't thro* them away before you have tried placing them M a cool place in a jug of fairly hot, steam- ing water. Most flowers will respond to this treatment within an hour, but if it fails and you happen to have any gum camphor in the house, drop a tiny piece in the jug. It greatly helps to increase the absorption of water. A Fashion Note Satin is being hailed as the new popular fabric of the raoment. For daytime and street wear it is styled into suits or dress and jacket ensem- bles. Black, of course, is the leading color. However, one shop is showing a sleeks trim jacket outfit in cool lem- on yellow. Another leading store is displaying a white shadow -check or- gandie frock with which is worn a black satin jacket, a little longer than linger -tip length, Satin shines in even- ing dresses. It is being developed in cool pastels, as well as black or white. Looking crisp and cool and very sleek was a. black satin evening gown with which was shown an organdie jacket, cut mess -jacket style. Evening gloves in satin, palmed in kid, have appeared. And stepping •jauntily along was a spectator sports frock of white satin. Aid to Coolness One or two electric fans, placed in the rooms you use most, will do much to make youi- home more comfortable in the summer.

July Fair was the morn today, the blos- eoni's scent Floated across the fresh grass, and the bees With low vexed song from rose and lily went, A gentle wind was • in the heavy trees. The earth no longer labored; shaded lay The sweet -breathed kine, across the sunny vale, From hill to hill the wandering rook did sail, Lazily croa,king midst his dreams of spring, Nor more awake the pink -foot dove did cling Unto the beech -bough, murmuring now and them; All rested but the restless 'sons of men. And the great sun, that wrought this happiness And all the vale with fruitful hopes, did bless, —William Morris, Poems. • SOCIETY NOT While walking on the street today 1 met Miss Peach In plumage gay, And as in manienly dismay Her sweeS -nee fell, - The rest of her Just followed tuft And hit the walk—it was e !newt Of a banana peel.

ESO LATE H M ES.--1Woe 4.110, thene that join house. to house, that lay field to field. Ceaseless wars had so impoverished the small proprietors that they were obliged to *borrow money at ruinous rates of inteiest, sometimes as high as twenty per cent„ which they were unable to pay. This. led to forecloseures, to evietions, and the rich greedily added lands and houses to their already vastposses- sions. Isaiah noted' this as one of the. major evils of his day.. Till there be no room. No 'land to be bought, even if there were money With which to buy it. And ye be made to dwell alone in the midst of the land! The selfisb rick dwelt in solitary grandeur, each surrounded by his enormous unpopu- lated territory. God has made the land, not to feed the pride of the few, but the natural hunger of the many, and it is his will that the most be got out.of a counry's soil for the people of the country. 1, In mine ears, said Jehovah of hosts. God the commander of the Armies of heaven! He had condescended to give a message to 'his prophet, as he will speak to any attentive and obedient lis- tener. Of a truth many houses. Shall be desolate, even great and fair, with- out inhabitant. The greed of the rich defeats its own en.A. A. nation is pros- perous as all are prosperous, great and humble, learned and unlearned, em- ployer and employed, ruler and ruled: Laws must be advantageous to all. For ten acres of vineyard ha1l yield one bath. A bath was a measure of between eight and nine gallons—a mis- erably small yield for an acre of vine- yard. And a homer of seed shall yield but an ephah. Probably an "acre" is not an adequate rendering of the Heb- rew term. 2. WOES OF DRUNKENNESS.— Woe unto them that rise up early the morning, that they may 'follmes strong drink. Drinking in the morning was very unusual and specially els- graceful. That tarry late into the night, till wine inflame them! Isaiah represents the drunkards of kbs. time as so eager for liquor that they not only spend the entire day in its pur- suit, perhaps going from one convivial gathering to another, but tarry in the evening. And the harp. Such a stringed isa- eerunient as David played, having se sounding -board. And the lute. Another stringed instrument, but lacking the AarsLinJa. 4 sounding -board; the psaltery. The tab - ret. A percussion instrument, a drum. tbe tattlalalt nate: And wine, are in their reaefee Music -played. a large part in their revels, as they sought thereby to drown the voice of conscience. But they regard not the work of Jehovah, neither have they considered the oper- ation of his hands. They take no heed, in their drunken orgies, to "the crown- ing work of jndgment whole- God is about to execute, and of which there were many ominous warning's for those who could discern the signs' of the times. 3. REJECTING THE LAW. Woe unto them that draw iniquity with cords of falsehood, and sin as it were with a cart rope. These men are represented as tugging away at a. heavy load of sin by means far too weak for the task, as if one were to pull a great weight with a frail and treacherous cord, or tug at a lumber- ing, high -piled cart with a mere rope sure to be frayed and to part in a few minutes. That say, let him make speed, let him hasten his work, that we may sea it. Instead of trembling at the soming judgment of God, which Isaiah has an- nounced, they pretend to desire its immediate arrival; they want to "see it." They walk, not by faith, hue by sight. And let the counsel of the Holy On.e.of Israel draw nigh and come, that we may know its "The Holy One of Israel," a precious name of God, is not said with reverence but with a sneer, Woe unto theui that call evil good; and good evil. This is the fifth Woee directed against false reasoners, men who twist arguments, sophistical plea- ders for evil, skilled to make it ap- pear as good. That put darkness for light, and light for darkness, These speakers and writers set forth moral midnight as if it were the dawn of righteousness, they can turn even the night to day. That put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! These words Are a denunciation ot presumptuous vebel- lion against recognized law, Woe unto them that aro wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight! This, the sixth Woe, is directed against blind self-oonceit. MUTT AND JEFF— By BUD FISHER _ — . VIC NAIL'. NOW ESC-.

This the sev- enth and culminating Woe, directed _against the bold and violent drinkers, Intoxication is never tto be associat- ed with strength, but only with the weakness it invariably produces. It is never heroic, always craven And ttake away the righteousness of the 'righteous from him! The law courts of Isaiah's time not only acquitted Wrongdoers, but condemned those who were in the right. • Therefore as the tongue of fire de- vouretli the stubble, and as the dry grass sinketh down in the flame. A metaphor peculiarly suited to a pas- toral country.: the ruin of these evil men shall come swiftly and irresistibly as fire sweeps over a dry meadow. So their root shall be as rottenness, Not only shall the top of their life -plant dry up, but the very root shall rot away. And their blossom shall go up as dust. Their blossom shall produce no real fruit, but shall turn into powder.

She is a slim attractive Parsee girl from Ceylon whose appearance would give the impression that her school days were barday over yet. She was a brilliant scholar at the Maria Grey Training College, London, and after she matriculated she read for the Bar in Lincoln's Inn. I saw her today at her home in, Hampstead, where she is living with her mother—writes an Evening News representative. She was wearing a native dress of blue and gold. "I shall be the first Woman bar- rister in Ceylon," she said-. "There are, of course, a number of women lawyers in India, but up to now there have been none in my own country." "I am eager to begin work at the Bar in Ceylon, but I have to wait some time yet before I can do that. I cannot be called until I ani 21, and I have to eat my dinner for three more terms, • "I may go to India fust and prae- tice there for a time before going to Colombo." Miss Mehta said there was no branch of the law in which she took especial interest and her practice would be a general one. "In in country," she explained, "English law has been super -imposed on the old native laws. There is di- vorce law there as here. SIX YEARS IN LONDON, "I have not considered taking up divorce practice. 1 can only wait to see what briefs may come to me."
