To prevent starch from crusting over after making it, if left to stand, acid about tablespoonful of kero- sonewhen you remove it from the stove. It will he free from humps, and smooth. The best thing to dust furniture with is a large soft paint brush which has been dipped in olive oil and squeezed almost dry, This will take up every bit of dust without sending it flying about. If one cupful.nf vinegar is put with the water in which colored table cloths are washed it will pre- vent the color from running. Iron when still clamp and they will look equal to new. When making baked or boiled custard the milk it: be used should be scalded and set aside to cool. Then make the custard in the orclia- ary way and it will be perfectly smooth. Shoes -To remove mud from foot- wear take an ordinary clothes pin, cut one of the prongs off complete- ly and you will have a device that cannot be surpassed for that pur- pose. Try it. To cure squeaking boots stand the boots in sufficient I'.iseed ail to just cover the soles. Leave them soak ing for twenty-four Lours. If not successful on the first treatment give another, which will remove all sound. To clean white marble mix. to- gether two ounces of common wash- ing vocla, one .ounce of finely pow- dered chalk, Make into a paste with cold water and rub well into the marble, Tho stains will then disappear. If you would preserve the ap- pearance of the wooden utensils in the kitchen always remember to wash them directly after they are used, because if grease and dirt aro allowed to soak in it may be impos- sible to remove them. To make string beans or cabbage tender in cooking them and also to shorten the time required for cook- ing the latter vegetable acid a pinch of baking soda to the water in whioh they are boiled. This, used judici- ously, makes the vegetables es fresh and tender as when they came frons the garden, ENGLAND'S SERVANT TAX. Trouble Between Mistress and Maid Predicted.

Published by the Canadian Associa- tion for Prevention of Consumption. - Consumption, with other forms of tuberculosis, -causes one death in every eight in this country. Of all deaths in the Dominion between the ages of twenty-five and thirty-five nearly one-half are due to consump- tion. The prime cause of consumption is a microscopic form of vegetation known as the tubercle bacillus or germ, which obtains entrance into the system by the inhalation ef in- fective dust, or by the use of in- fected food. The germ of bacillus is derived solely from persons or animals suf- fering from some form of tubercu- losis. It is contained in the dust particles of the dried expectora- tion; xpectora-tion; in the minute droplets spray- ed into the air by a consumptive when coughing or sneezing; and in the milk and flesh of tuberculous animals, which are often unwitting- ly used for food. The invasicn'of the germ is facili- tated by a great variety of condi- tions, such as (1) living in over- crowded, ill ventilated, dark, dirty rooms; (2) insufficient or infected food; (3) alcoholism and other forms of dissipation; (4) along neglected cold and various other debilitating sickness. PROTECTIVE MEASURES TO BE TAKEN BY PATIENTS. In the common interest the best place for a consumptive is a sana- torium. If this be impracticable he should be under constant medical supervision, It is essential for the protectiou of their own families, and to prevent the spread of the disease among others, that the following precau- tions be observed ;- a. A consumptive must not ex- pectorate about the house, nor in the worlc shop or office, nor on the floor of any cab, or other convey- ance; nor on the sidewalk; nor in any place of general resort. b, He should use a soft Japanese paper handkerchief or a piece of -cheesecloth that should be burned. o. In the sickroom the patient should use a waterproof paper spitting -cup, whioh should be thrown into the fire, and replaced by a fresh one at least every twen t -.four y hours. If a notal or -china.. spitting -cup be used the contents should be threWn into the fire, and the eup itself should be boiled for half an hour, d. Tho patient should live as much as possible in the open' air; 'Should wear outer clothing which may be easily washed ; should not Tay or be kissed on the lips; and when coughing or sneezing should always hold a handkerchief over his mouth and avoid coughing in the .di- rection of another person; and fin- ally, the patient should wash his hands before eating, • e. Consumptives should not swal- low their phlom sine° by so doing the disease may be conveyed to parts of the body not already in - fated. P]itDirE'TtVE i1IEASI Irl S roll THE ICOUSEIIOLIi, ent should have as much sunlight and fresh air as ;possible. 2, Well persons should not sleep in the same' bed with a consumptive and when possible not in the same room, 3. The floors of rooms occupied by consumptives should not be carpet- ed, but should be painted or cover- ed with oilcloth, 4. Floors, woodwork and furni- ture should be wiped daily with a duster, moistened with a disinfect- ant. Floors should never be dry swwept. • 5. All beer -clothing and body lin- en should be changed and cleaned frequently. 6. The table ware used by a con- sumptive -should be kept by itself and may be sterilized by boiling. 7. A. room whioh has been mem- pied by a consumptive should not be usecl again until it has been thoroughly cleaned and disinfected. 8. In the event of death from consumption, advice should be sought from the Board of Health re- garding the best way to disinfect the house. DISINFECTION. • 1. For washing the face and body use carbolic soap; the hands and hair should be frequently cleansed with a strong alkali soap. Patients should not wear beards or mo taches. 2. All washable clothing, l and. kerchiefs., coverlets, sheets, and pil- low cases should bo disinfected by boiling for -half an hour in strong soap suds, after which they 'should be thoroughly washed in the usual way. 3. Bedding, -carpets, -curtains, wearing apparel and all s'milar ar- ticles which. cannot bo washed, be- longing to or used by a iatiente should be disinfected in an efcienc steam disinfector; where such is available. 4. In order to remove or +iesteey the dried infective discharges, the disinfectant must'bo applied direct- ly -to the infected surfaces of the room, and may be applied by wash- ing, brushing or spraying. 5. Among other chemical prepara- tions used for this purpose, a solu- tion of one part carbolic acid in twenty of water is a safe and effee- tive disinfectant. 6. In remote rural districts when carbolic acid cannot easily be pro- cured, scalding hot water mixed with lye from hardwood ashes plen- tifully applied with a stiff s,•rub- bing brush will answer every par - pose. Note, while, a strong solutim of lye is desirable care must be talon not to makes the mixture strong enough injure the a ghods of he t person tieing it. TO CROSS GREENLAND.

Lesson L -Malignant unbelief, Mark 13, 2041. Golden text, John 3. 19. Verse 20. The last short sentence of verso 19 belongs with our lesson penceassage, as an introductory sen f Into a house -Probably the bene of Simon Peter in Capernaum. The incident with which our lesson be- gins follows immediately upon the return of Jesus with his newly ap- pointed apostles from the mountain retreat. The multitude cometh together again -It was during the period of our Lord's greatest popularity in Galilee. In their eagerness to hear his words and to see the works which he performed the multitudes followed him even into the privacy of the home in which he alas enter- tained, crowding about him and his disciples so that they could not so much as eat bread. 21. His friends -Probably- his mother and brothers, mcntieeed again in verse 31, These apparent- ly had come from • Nazareth in search of him and anxious for his safety. Lay hold on him -,• So absorbed was he in his work that it was nec- essary to touch him And take hum by the hand to gain his attention. Beside himself -Actually uncon- scious of his oven need of rest and food, 22. The scribes -Really the sophe- rim, or "men of book learning." They were the editors and inter- preters as well as the scribes and copyists of ancient and current writings. In the time of Jesus they were among the recognized teach- ers of the law, and therefore also among the recognized religious leaders of the people. Came down from Jerusalem - For the purpose of watching the public activity of Jesus and seek ing occasion for public accusation against his life and teachings. Beelzebub - Greek, Beelzebul, Beelzebub is tate .game given to the god of Ekren (2 Icings 1. 6), end means probably the god ef flies. The derivation and meaning of Beelzebul are both uncertain. From its use in this passage the name is supposed to signify the lord of the underworld, who is at the same time the prince of demons. (For a note on demon possession, compare Introduction to Lesson Text Stud- ies for March 10.) 23, Called them -Instead of driv- ing the multitude from him and in- sisting on an opportunity for rest and refreslnnent, Jesus invites them to stay and bids them draw near unto him. Parables -The word is here used in the general sense of an illustra- tive or analogical statement. Among the various meanings of the word are the following: As sy- nonymous with proverbs (1 Sam. 10, 12; Prov, 1, 1); in the sense of dark enigmatical utterances Psa. 78, 2; Prov. 1. 6); for mystical, propheti- cal intimations (Num. 23. 7, 18); in the sense of a figurative narrative (Ezek. 17. 1-10) ; for illustrative statements or comparisons (Matt. 15. 15; Luke 6. 39); for institutions, persons, or events of a typical sug- gestive character (Heb. 9. 9; 11. 19). Satan -Literally, adversary. 24: If a kingdom be .divided against itself -The argument be- ginning with the preceding verse is eveloped in three particular and arallel cases -a divided kingdom, divided house, and a divided ad- versary (Satan). In email ,case the result of division is the same, It eads not to conquest,- hat to dis- uption. "If Satan were in collu- ion with Jesus and lent him his ower, he would be his own destroy- s," 27.

FROM MERRY OLD ENGLAND NEWS BY MAIL ABOUT MIN BULL AND LEIS PEOPLE. Occurrences in The Land That Reigns Supreme' in the Come , nierolal World, EFFORTS FOR PEACE. English and Germans Exchange of Visits. Peace advocates are working hard for the extension of their principles by an exchange. of visits between English and German ministers, teachers, .and students, Anglo -Ger- man frien•ciship, they .believe, is the key to the betterment of interna- tional relations, .and an exchange of hospitality will lead to the oblitera- tion of prejudice born of ignorance. The rapturous reception of 800 British children by ,the Parisians has moved the Berliners to set about arranging a similar jaunt to their city. Already parties of students and boy scouts have visited various parts of Germany, with,encouraging results. Next week a large andrepre,sen- tative party of German university students will start on a tour of England, while a similar party from England will visit Hamburg, Kiel, Weimar, and Munich.

No Morro Gambling Allowed Any- where in Spain. Following upon the objections raised in the Chamber of Deputies against gambling in Barcelona, the Spanish Government has adopted the most radical measure,s. Gamb- ling has been prohibited throughout Spain, even in the most aristocra- tic clubs. Telegraphic orders to this effect have been sent to all towns in Spain. All the clubs amici gambling saloons have been closed. The San Sebastian Casino has closed its doors, and the employes have been dismissed. The • Government will study a system of regulation. Spain is one of the countries where gaming is most prevalent, andthus the measure has praduoed an enormous effect. The great mass of opinion applauds the Govern- ment's energy. Tho authorities have orders to imprison persons who contravene the legal prohibi- tion, The impresario of many casi- nos where roulette was played was a celebrated Belgian, whom the Bel- gian tribunals had already convict- ed several times.

King Mahe, Vajiravudh, of Siam has just performed a very graceful actin empowering the ministers of the interior and local government to collect. taxes on his lands and houses throughout the country simi- lar to those paid by private indivi- duals. In course of a letter ad- dressed to the two ministers in question his majesty says : "The people in general who own landed and house property, when the time arrives for being e n called upon by the authorities to do so, have to pay taxes on the same in proportion to the extent of each person's possessions. Apart from the official side, I eousider myself as being any ordinary person. The property which I possess, compara- tively speaking, may bo said to be considerable ; and if the government would like to have 'a, share of the income !therefrom I shall be both willing and glad to ,part with the same as a contribution towards the maintenance of the state and na- tion like any other ordinary indi- vidual.
