“ ‘But,’ the Sunday golfer objected, ‘‘you’ve got a sign on the church porch to the effect that bicyclists can leave their machines at the manse during service, haven’t you?” “ ‘Yes, ma’am, I have,’ the minister answered. ‘You can ride to church on a bicycle, you know; but you can’t on a golf stick —unless you happen to be a witch.”

TABLE DELICACIES.

Western Canada Is the Mecca of the land-hungry man who wishes to earn a good living from the soil and save up money to take care of him in his old age without paying a fancy price for the privilege. Western Canada Is the great wheat producing section of the North American continent, with an average production of more than 30 bushels to the acre as compared with an average of 17 bushels to the acre in the States.

The tough ends of steak are often a problem in good serving. Cut the tough end from the steak and chop rather coursey; cook It In a little mtter with a little pepper and salt until it is well heated; add two tadespoonfuls of milk, dredge with browned flour, toss it well in onefourth of a cupful of cream and serve with baked potatoes.

Trying Ordeal.

‘‘Speaking of hopes deferred and blighted ambition, there’s Mr. Scrub, ly of our town.” “What about him?” “He’s been primed with an Interview on the Mexican situation for the past six weeks and hasn’t been able to break into print yet.”

Wheat raising can hardly be made profitable on land that costs from $50 an acre up unless such land will produce a much higher than a 17 bushel average, or unless the price of the cereal reaches an excessive figure. The initial investment of $50 an acre Is more than the average man can afford to make if he expects tq raise wheat and to make a success of it. A good homestead of ICO acres can still be secured free in Western Canada and additional land admirably suited to the raising of wheat can be secured at so low a cost per acre that it can be made extremely profitable. No other part of the world offers such tremendous opportunities at the present time to the ambitious young farmer as the three great provinces of Western Canada. It Is worth the while of the landhungry man to cease his depressing search for local cheap land or for laud that is not entirely worked out by long cropping and to look outside his own district. Western Canada is a country that should receive the consideration of all such men. The Western Provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta are essentially agricultural territory. Out of 478 million acres there are ISO million acres of first-class agricultural laud actually available for development—a block three and a half times as lai'ge as the total land area of Minnesota, and equal to the combined land areas of Minnesota, Iowa, Wisconsin, Illinois and Indiana. But whereas the population of the five states mentioned is fifteen million people, the population of Western Ctmnda j.s only ah out one and thresquarter millions. It has been said that the average yield per acre of wheat In the United States last year was 17 bushels. This average doqs not, of course, represent the efiicieucy which may have, been reached by individual farmers or by

Perfectly Safe.

A man whose country place was near a small town recently became conscious of most suspicious glances upon him by his friends and acquaintanees. Then he became aware that his footsteps were dogged. A constable was occasionally seen around his house, and subsequently a stranger, who afterward turned out to be a detective, appeared. Tortured and troubled, the gentleman at last asked a friend the meaning of it all. “Don’t you know,” said he, “they suspect you of murder?” “Of murder!” said the horrified man. “What do you mean?” “You received a post card last week.”

The rector of a rural parish in Eng. land, says the Manchester Guardian, was trying to make conversation with a parishioner whose son was in the army. Not meeting with much sue* cess, he finally ventured: “Naturally I take deep interest in this force at Saloniki. Are you aware, Mrs. X, that these are the Thessnlonians to whom St. Paul sent a letter?” Mrs. X looked up from the washtub. “Well, he may have written there; I’m not-saying he didn’t. But I’m sorry for ’im If he sent parcels. 1 sent two to my boy months since, and they ain’t been delivered yet.”

“Very likely I received a dozen.” “But on this post card was written these words: ‘Be sure and save the child, but kill the mother,’ and the liostmaster read —” But at this a smile, ending in a guffaw, broke in upon the dialogue. The post card had come from a magazine editor, for whom the gentleman had written a story, which the editor wanted amended according to these directions.

Easier Methods. "There is nothing like pushing a lawn mower around for an hour every morning to prepare man for the daily office grind,” remarked the glad suburbanite. “Umph 1” grunted his corpulent neighbor. “Haven’t you found it so?” “Not yet.

Small Brother's Criticism,

“I heard him call you ‘Duckle,’” announced the small brother. “Well, what of it?” demanded his sister, defiantly. “Oh, nothin’ much,” answered the small brother. “I was only thinkin’ maybe it’s because of the way you walk, but it ain’t very nice of him.”

Individual states. However, place against this figure the fact that the 1915 Western Canadian average—the average from nearly twelve million acres —was over 30 bushels. In the case of the Province of Alberta, the average reached 32.84 bushels per acre. There are already a large number of American farmers in Western Canada, so that the newcomer could never — overlooking the fact that the same language is spoken—feel himself in an alien country. There seems, in fact, a tendency to establish little colonies composed of those coming from the same sections. The characteristics of the country, and the climate and season, are very much the same as in Minnesota or North Dakota. Social condition bear a family resemblance. Education i free, and is good; its cost being defrayed partly by taxation, partly by grants from the Canadian Government, from the sales of school lands, of which, when the country was first surveyed, two sections in every township were allocated. Taxation in every rural district, in many towns and cities, is based practically on land values alone, improvements of all kinds being exempted.—Advertisement.

Mrs.Lena Wynn, 2812 E. 0 Street, Richmond, Va. While Change of Life is a most critical period of a woman’s existence, the annoying symptoms which accompany it may be controlled, and normal health restored by the timely nee of Lydia E.

Such warning symptoms are a sense of suffocation, hot flashes, headaches, backaches, dread of impending evil, timidity, sounds in the ears, palpitation of the heart, sparks before the eyes, irregularities, constipation, variable appetite, weakness and inquietude, and dizziness. For these abnormal conditions do not fail to take Lydia E. Pink ham’s Vegetable Compound.

LEFT-OVER DESSERTS.

“Higgins, who is something of a poet,' says his muse will run away with him.”

It is far easier to prepare mads dishes for entrees, salads, or even

main dishes, but the ingenuity of the cook is taxed to use bits of leftover desserts In attractive ways. If one has served a plain rice pudding one day the rice may be combined with a custard for

a dessert the second, not the following day. Another attractive rice pudding may be prepared by packing tie remnants into a mold and when time to serve, turn out and cover the mold with sweetened whipped cream and surround with any fresh, well-sugared berries in their season, or muskmelon, cut in dice, sprinkled witji sugar, salt and a bit of nutmeg makes a most attractive and appetizing combination.

Men and Women

Women as well as men are made miser* able by kidney and bladder trouble. Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy, is highly recommended by thousands.

Swamp-Root stands the highest for the reason that sc many people say It has proved to be just the remedy needed in thousands ot even the most distressing cases.

If cottage pudding is served, bake a layer or two in a jelly cake tin and have it with a rich filling for a cake to serve with a little dish of fruit for dessert the following day. Or if the pudding Itself is left, drop the pieces in a paper and reheat or steam In a steamer and serve with a custard sauce.

Kindhearted World.

Chauncey M. Depew talked about old age on his eighty-second birthday to a New York reporter. “The world Is very kind to the aged,” he said. “It spares them all allusion to their years. Let me tell you, by the way, that it Is as painful to a man when he hears himself called old for the thousandth time as It was to him the first time. “A boy once asked me: “ ‘tVhat do people mean, sir, when they say a man is in the prime of life?’ “ ‘They mean, my lad,’ I answered, ‘to spare the old fellow’s feelings.’ ”

Left-over baked custards may be carefully dipped into sherbet cups, a layer of nuts or fruit between, and garnish with cooked egg, white or whipped cream. Cornstarch pudding or rice may be served In the same way. Apple sauce may be placed In ramekins, cover with a nch pastry and bake; serve hot or cold. Blanc-mange when made molded In individual molds, if any is left over, may be cut in two and served with a different sauce, adding variety without waste. Steamed chocolate pudding, cut ir slices and put together with an orange filling, may be served In small cakes with a cup of tea for luncheon.

Nice Distinction.

“I suppose you will send your family away for the summer?” “No, indeed,” answered the meeklooklug man. “My wife and daughters would resent the idea of my sending them anywhere. However, they expect to be away all summer.”

A New Use For This Word The New Post Toasties are truly entitled to the word “delicious.” They’re distinguished by the tiny bubbles found on each flake and they carry the full, rich flavour of choice, white Indian corn — not found in com flakes of the past. And unlike common corn flakes, they are not “chaffy” in the package and don’t grow mushy in milk or cream. Note carefully the tiny bubbles —then try a handful dry to test the flavour. In comparison, other com flakes are as “chaff.” New Post Toasties Sold by Grocers everywhere.
