Ham and Chicken Pie.
In place of a "weal and 'am" pie
of Sam Weller fame try ham and
chicken pie for your next Sunday's
dinner. An oldish chicken may be
used, the ham acting as an extender.
In case you have some left -over cold
boiled or baked ham on hand, the pie
suggests a splendid way to use it up.
Boil the chicken until tender. Re-
move meat from bones and. make a
gravy of the chicken stock. Line a
deep baking dish with a rich baking
powder biscuit crust, rolled about one-
half inch thielc. Place thinly sliced
cold boiled ham in alternating layers
with chicken in the pastry lined bak-
ing dish. Fill with gravy and cover
with crust. Bake in a hot oven until
the crust is done. Serve from baking
dish.
To Steam Velvet.
The pile of a velvet frock which
has, become flattened with much wear
may be restored as follows: Place a
damp cloth secarely round an upturn-
ed hot iron, then pass the reverse side
of the velvet across the iron. The pile
will almost immediately stand up as
fresh as new again. Another way is
to hold the velvet over the steam of
a boiling. kettle.
If one lives in a house which is
equipped with a hot-air furnace, a
very simple method of steaming the
whole dress is to sponge thoroughly
with a damp cloth on the wrong side,
then turn dress right side out, and sus-
pend on a hanger over the hot-air
radiator,
Filled Potato Cups
Ingredients: Juice and grated rind
of 2 lemons, 1/2 cup's's:gar, 1/2 teaspoon
salt, 1 cup shortening, 1 cup sour
milk, 1/2 cup corn syrup, 1/2 cup cold
water, 11/2„cups sugar, 2 eggs, 1 tea-
spoon baking soda, 3 cups flour. Line
two pie tins Nith rich crust and fill
with the corn syrup mixed with the
grated rind and the lemon juice, 1/2
cup sugar, the salt and the cold water:
Cream the 11/2 cups sugar with the
Shortening and then beat in the 2 eggs.
Sift the flour with the baking soda
and then alternate it with the liquid.
Pour the batter thus made over the
lemon filling iii the pie shell and bake
in a moderate oven.
Puffed Rice Crisps.
If the children demand something
sweet and you feel in a candy -making
mood, the following recipe is bound to
be successful from all angles. Ingre-
dients: 1 cup white sugar, 1/2 cup
water, 2 tablespoons vinegar, 1 box
puffed rice, 1/2 eup corn syrup, 1/2, tea-
spoon salt, 1 tablespoon butter. Boil
all the ingredients, except the puffed
dice, to 240 degree e on the sugar ther-
mometer or, until a little would be
brittle when dropped into cold water.
Mix v. ith the puffed rice and pour into
oiled pans to cool. Gut in squares

PLACE—By the Sea of Galilee.
PARALLEL PASSAGES — Mark
4: 1-34; Luke 4-18.
"Another parableset he before
them," We are to think of Christ as
using these and other parable's often
in his preaching. All truth needs con-
stant repitition and reviewing. ."Say-
ing, The kingdom of heaven." These
eight parables, all relating to this one
then, are called "the parables of the
kingdom," that is the reign of right-
eousness, peace, and oy which Christ
caree to establish on earth. "Is like
unto a grain of mustard seed." The
likeness is in the smallness a the seed
as contrasted with the size Of the plant
which springs from it. "What a man
took, and sowed in his field." The king-
dom, though it comes from heaven,
cannot be sown on earth except by
man.
"Whieh indeed is less than all
seeds." The smallest of the seeds in
common use, the smallest commercial
seed. "But when it is grown, it is
greater than the heebs." Larger -than
any other garden plant. "And be:av-
et% a tree." As tall as a small tree,
sometimes ten or twelve feet high.
"So that the birds of the heaven come
cad lodge in the branches thereof.'
The passage indicates the rest, food,
shelter and enoyment of the kingdom.
"Another parable spake he unto
them." The analogy which appealed
to his mind might not appeal to an-
other, so he tried another comparison.
"The kingdom of heaven is like unto
leaven." In Bible times the Jews used
for yeast a little old dough, highly
fermenting, which gave the bread a
sour taste. Elsewhere, therefore, lea-
ven is a symbol of evil, but here of
good influences. "Which a woman
took." Bread -making being woman's
work as seed sowing was man's. "Anti
hid in three measures of meal." Three
seahs, or about three pecks and five
quarts of meal, the customary amount
for a household. "Till it was all leav-
ened." The point is the large amount
of meal that was raised by the small
amount of yeast.
Chop 'half a pound of fat bacon and
•
peel and slice two pounds of potatoes.
Well grease a fireproof dish and
make layers of potato and bacon, sea-
soning each layer well, sprinkling
lightly with flour, and finishing with
potato.
Pour over enough milk nearly to
cover the contents of the dish, dab
witk butter, and bake for three-quar-
ters of an hour (moderate- oven).
Any Meal — Any Day.
There islet' a meal of the daywhen
hain can't be used to advantage.
For a Sunday morning breakfast,
when the family have time to . enjoy
it, try creamed ham on toast.
Creamed Ham.
Two cups finely chopped cold cooked
ham, 1/2 cup minced celery, 2 table-
spoons butter, 2 tablespoons flour, 2
cups milk, 6 splices bread.
Melt butter in sauce pan, add flour
and when bubbling slowly add milk,
stirring constantly. Add ham and
celery and let cook until thick and
smooth, stirring to prevent sticking.
Season with pepper but no salt. Toast
bread to a golden brown on both sides
and arrange on a hot platter. Pour
over the creamed ham, garnish each
piece with a sprig of parsley and
serve.
Ham Croquettes.
Scrub and peel- eight uniform size
white potatoes. Slice off • top and
scoop out part of inside, making a
cup about one-quarter inch thick. Soak
in cold salted water fifteen minutes.
Drain and dry thoroughly with a
towel. 'Drop in deep, hot fat, frying
golden. brown all over. Drain. Just
before serving fill the cups with
creamed mushrooms and peas.
Informal Table Setting.
Attractive luneheon cloths may be
made for the breakfast nook by buy-
ing colorful checked oilcloth and fin-
ishing the edge by cutting out every
other check. They save washing, are
pretty for informal meals and can be
obtained in any color that will help
to brighten up the kitchen.
Uses of Lacquer.
A coat of Japanese lacquer when
applied to wood or metal . is proof
against alcohol, acsainstheiling water;
against almostall known agencies.
The lacquer tree of Japan is very
large and is cut down at the age of
forty years.
The Sick Room
A sick room should be airy and well
ventilated, with windows that open
without difficulty. No article of un-
necessary fthreiture should be permit-
ted to remain i the room; and all
that is there shothl I be of a kind that
can be easily washed with soap and
water.
Medicine glasses should be washed
M soapy water and rinsed thoroughly
after each dose has been administered.

Falsehoods not only disagree with

"The kingdom of heeven i.. like unto
a treasure hidden in the field." In
those days when such banks and de-
posit vaults as we have were unknown,
it was not unconnnon for men to bury
their coin and other valuables in the
ground. "Which a man fouad, and
hid." He hid it again, lest some one
else might find it, and so that, he
night purchase the field and so gain
title to its rich contents. If the gospel
were so obvious that no one could miss
it, the possession of it could. be no-
thing but a mockery.
New Plants
For the Spring
The race of gardeners like the
Athenians love eome new thing, writes
the London Spectator, and this year
they have found in their catalogue
a greater than usual number a novel-
ties; not, of conrse, in species, but
in varieties, The sweet pea has had
a quiescent period for several years.
There have been plenty of new sweet
peas, but none very new. The most
considerable addition was perhaps
the Sestet Queen, a white vaniety
that was more apt than others to
have six flowers to a stem, even when
the 'cultivation was more en less
Perfunctory.
This year, though other novelties
are perhaps more brilliant, there is
a new blue called myosotis, which is
a distinct advance in a color of
which the tribe is rather shy, and to
my mind the most useful of all sweet
peas are those with an inclination to-
wards blueness, such as the very
popular Gleneagles. There is also a
new class of variety christened
"fantasy," which runs capriciously
through a wide range of tints,
though the standard is said to be
self -colored.
Another novelty perhaps worth
some special emphasis is a bright
red clarkda, named by Carter's Glori-
ous. This annual continues to grow
in favor because of its super -excel -
lease for picking. When really well -
grown it has shoots that suggest a
bush rather than a bedding plant, and
even the lesser buds open complete-
ly in water.

quired the most careful consideration.

Heiress Has Waited So Lona
For the Money That it
Doesn't Mean Much
to Her
San Franeisco.—Someone to help
her with the dishes, a week or so el
resting, a short sea voyage. That%
what a 5-0 per 'cent share of more than
$1,000,000 means to Mrs. Constance
May Galin, wife of a Los Angeles
bank teller.
Speaking publicly last week for
the first time since her attorneys and
counsel for the heirs of the Late
James L Flood agreed on a tentstilve settlement of about $1,200,000 ot
her 'claim to a daughter's share oi
the bonanza king's estate, Mrs, Gavin
said she had waited so long the
money doesn't mean much.
"I guess I've waited for the money
too long," she remarked. "Oh, I
might buy a new dress, Servants%
Yes, I'd like to have someone help
me—particularly with the dishes!
Maybe—though I haven't thought
much about it—my husband and 1
will take a short sea voyage,"
Although Mrs. Gavin will emerge
financially victorious in the seven,
year legal battle, one of the provisions
of the tentative settlement is that the
court records will show she is not
Flood's daughter.

Outside It She Is Merely a
Stage -Manager Under the
Direction • of a New
Heroic Type of Man
Berlin.—Woman "is the stage man-
ager and man the general director in
the drama of lege," Dr. Paul Goebbels,
Minister of Propaganda. and Enlight-
enment, told a meeting of Nazi women
recently.
Under the past system, he declared,
women had entered public life because
manly virtue disappeared from it. But
now that "a new heroic type" of man-
hood has arisen it was meant that wo-
man should be relegated to the home,
there to reign as a sovereign queen.
The Nazi aim is to create a new
"ideal woman" as a counterpart of the
ideal man, Dr. Goebbels said. He
qualified his statement by adding that
women were not to be forced out of
professions but women's shares in
men's jobs must be modified by Nazi
ideals.
Eat Liver If You
Are Anaemic
The value of certain foodstuffs is
based on scientific facts founded by
experiment or experience.
Take liver, for instance. It has a
beneficial effect on the health of the
blood and it is now an established fact
that in some cases of anaemia, hither-
to believed to be incurable, the taking
of liver immediately restores the blood
to normal.
In addition to this property, the
liver of all fish, birds, or animals, con-
tains a great deal of vitamin A and
D, both of which have much to do with
growth in the child. Vitamin A is
also protective against lung trouble.
