And most important, waffles may always be made at the last minute, so they hold first rank of emergency dishes. Because waffle batter is a pour batter, it's much more convenient to mix it in a pitcher and pour it on the waffle iron rather than dip it with a spoon from a mixing bowl. The lipped bowls are attractive and easier to beat in thee a straight -sid- ed pitcher. WIPE, DON'T WASH • Never wash a waffle iron! The metal must be seasoned before using. but after that, even this material, should not be washed. After each baking wipe with soft paper and re- move all crumbs with a stiff brush kept for the purpose. Plain waffles with creamed, salmon and fresh peas make a delicioue, luncheon for a summer noon when the weather suddenly turns cool. PLAIN WAFFLES One and one-third cups flour, s1 teaspoon baking powder, % teaspoon salt, 1-3 teaspoon soda, 2 eggs, 1 cup sour milk, 4 tablespoons melted butter. Mix and sift flour, salt and baking poWther. Add milk, stirring con- stantly to keep smooth. Add yolks of "eggs well beaten and. melted shortening. Mix thoroughly and beat in soda dissolved in a little cold water. Fold in whites of eggs beat- en until stiff. Bake in a hot waffle iron. The batter may be made several hours in advance and kept on ice until needed. To make chocolate waffles melt two squares of baking chocolate apd The vitamin content is coesiderecl good, comparing favorably with oranges. 'This is worth keeping in mind, because as oranges become scarce and high in price, pineapples make a good substitute. To Prepare For Table There's one preeaution about get- ting fruit ready for the table., Be sure that every bit of the skin and eyes are removed. There's an astringent in the skin and eyes that often makes the mouth sore. The easiest way to handle the fruit is to cut it in inch slices after washing. Then pare of the skin and dig out the eyes with a sharp -pointed knife. Remove the hard nee in the centre and cut the flesh in dice, or shred if preferred. • If you sprinkle the fruit with sugar at least an hour before serving, the flavor will be more delicate and the sweetness penetrates through ' the fruit. Another point to keep in mind re- garding fresh pineapple is the neces- sity of scalding both the juice and the sfruit before adding them to a gelatin mixture. Your jelly won't "jell" if you don't do this. Pineapple Pudding 'Use eee cup of quick -cooking tapi- oca, add to 3' cupfuls of milk and cook in a (bauble boiler until the tapioca becomes transparent. Add 2-3 cup sugar, a pinch of salt and 2 -eggs, slightly beaten. Stir until well mixed, and continue cooking until thickened. Serve warm or cold with diced sweetened pineapple as a sauce. Pineapple Me'ringue Cake 4 cup butter, % cap sugar, 4 egg yolks, 4 tablespoons milk, ee, cup cake flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, sift in leet 2 tablespoons cake flour and. les teaspoon salt.

Beat egg whites to a froth, add sugar gradually, continuing beating until all sugar is added. Meringue should hold a point when beater is removed from. it. Then add vanilla esseremeesseeseenneetureeeereetbreseir each of the unbaked layers. Sprinkle the chopped nutmeats on top 'of meringue.

Pineapples always may be relied upon to furnish the, perfect finishing touch to menus. Before you -use fresh pineapple in any way, be sure to give it a flier- s ough scrubbing with a stiff brush. The extremely rough skin makes a splendid lodging place for dust and germs. Pick Good Ones It's easy to select fine fruit when 9rketing, because pineapples have few imperfections. The size of the fruit really has little to do with its quality. Pound for pound, one pine- apple yields about the same percen- tage of edible material as another. An even golden color denotes full. ripening. Pull the leaves from the crown, too. They should pull easily and be white some distance up from the base. Notice this whiteness par- ticularly, because unless you are the first person who has tried to pull out the leaf, several previous tweaks may have., loosened it so that it does come easily for you and you will be f poled. Notice the .fragrance, too. Never choose fruit that is hard and green looking unless it is to be kept for sevaral days before using. -Over-ripe pineapples are soft and frequently have black spots on their suef ace. This blemish usually starts at the 'base of the fruit. . • .• • The two children of the Kineand Queen of Belgium, pictured on the sands at the Holland sea- side resort at Noorwijk with The, cheedeen of the Burgomaster.

LACE.—Principally in the city ofeJerusalem, and, particularly, in the temple. "And the king sent, and they gathered unto him all the elders of Jeielah and of Jerusalem." Although the king had received an answer which was favorable only in its bearing on himself, his first care was to bring together the entire people, to make them acquainted with the law -book, to lead them to repent, and so to avert, as far as possible, the threatened punish- ment." "And the king went up to the house of Jehovah." The most appro- priate place for the reading of the law of God, and a place where great multitudes could easily be gathered together. "And all the men of Jud- ah and all the inhabitants of Jeru- ealem with him, and the priests, and the prophets." And all the people, both small and great." That is, both high and low; cf. Ps. 49:2.

These siniple remedies for removing spots should be kept in some handy place for such emergencies. Scorch A good way to remove scorch from white goods is to wet the plac- es and hang it up exposed to the sunshine to dry, or you could spread it thickly with paste made of com- mon starch and cold evater, and lay in sun. If badly discolored a second application may be necessary. Wash with soap and warm water. .rst Iek ----TeeeeesessesseliseePleee Agse aitielee'oveissisebowireeeeiee • stain with borax. Then wet the' borax thoroughly • with peroxide, us- ing plenty of peroxide, and the stain will almost immediately disappear. Some prefer to use a thin mustard paste to spread over an ink spot and leave it for 24 hours. This takes out the ink and does not injure the most delicate fabric or color. Mud Mud stains can generally be re- moved by rubbing the spot with a mixture of equal parts of flour and common salt. Grease To remove auto grease or any dark, heavy grease from washable fabric apply a small piece of butter and rub in well, and then wash with soap and rinse. Another way is to make a paste of Fuller's earth and turpentine, and rub it on the fabric until the tur- pentine has evaporated and a white powder produced. This can be brushed off and all grease will have disappeared. Sunday School • Lesson Pineapple Filling 1 cup whipping cream, 1% table- spoons powdered sugar, 1 cup crushed pineapple, drained 1/4, tea- spoon vanilla. lerhip cream, add other ingredients. Place one of the baked layers, meringue side down, on a cake plate. Spread with the whipped cream pine- apple filling. Place the second layer on top, with meringue side up. This cake is best if eaten the day it is made. At any rate, the whip- ped cream filling should not be added until shortly before serving. Fresh or canned pineapple may be used for these recipes. SCISSORS IN KITCHEN lesCissors have many uses in the kitchen. Fruit such as grapes and strawberries will not be bruised and lose juice if they are clipped instead of cut with a knife. Bacon strips for casserole dishes, canapes and hoes d'oeuveres may be cut neatly with scissors, too.

Johnson. in 'recognition of her genie us and. contribution. to Canadian lit -I erature. In discussing the Canadian attitude towards men of letters, Mr. MacDon- ald expressed himself as delighted, with the honoring of Charles G. D.1 Roberts with a knighthood. Such al gesture justified the whole system title -giving, he said: "England 1st England," in the opinion of the poet,1 "because of her writers. Canadiatt writers," he added, "not politicianse are creating Canada." all the host of heaven." The moon and tars, also objects of pagan wor- ship. "And he burned them without Jerusalem in the fields of the Kid- ron, and carried the ashes of than unto Beth -el." While it need net be assumed that the king actually made the fire and burned them him- self, he was the one whose order was responsible for their destruction, and he no doubt personally super- vised such work. Nothing could have been more thorough than the reformation which Josiah undertook, especially' as re- gards external matters. Only God himself, by his Spirit, can change the human heart, but a man with great power can bring about a vast change in the external conditions prevailing among those people over whom he has jurisdiction. "And .the king commanded all the people, saying, Keep the passover unto Jehovah your God, as it is written in this book of the coven- ant." The ordinance of the passover is given in Deut. 16:1-8. "Surely there was not kept such a passover from the days of the judges that judged Israel, nor in all the days of the kings of Israel, nor of the kings of Judah." Scripture records that the passover was kept the second year after the exodus (Numbers 9:1-5). and then not again „ . etereseretergeTsisaverseseseeresseeireeteUe seesee a covenant before Jehovah, to walk after Jehovah, and to keep his com- Mandments, and his testimonies, and his statutes." He did not make a new covenant, but he renewed his determination to keep the covenant which, long before, his forefathers had entered into with, God. "With all his heart, and all his soul." See, especially, Deut. 4:29; Matt. 22:37. With all your heart, and with all your soul, means the bringing of yourself together resolutely, in your endeavor to seek after God. That is the condition of getting back. "To confirm the words of this covenant that were written in this book: and all the people stood to the coven- ant." They all took the same pledge as the king. "And the king commanned Hil- kiah the high priest, and the priests of the second order." The younger and subordinate priests. "And the keepers of the threshold." The Lev- ites whose duty it was to guard the temple. "To bring forth out of the • temple of Jehovah all the vessels that were made for Baal."

"But in the eighteenth year of king Josiah was this passover kept to Jehovah in Jerusalem." It was in the eighteenth year that the temple and the land were cleansed from all symbols of idolatry, and that the great passover was held.
