These are good, Theods, for scheol | Junches. So alse are sandwiches mede from eggs, from sugar or pea- nut butter. EBgg-filling for said sandwiches is made by chopping hard beiled egas with a little ondon and mixing dress- ing with a small quantity of salad dressing. It is only a Jittle more trouble to make them, than to give the children plain boiled, or fried eggs; and they like the sandwiches better.

MOVING OUT ON THE FRONTIER. When my father was a boy of 14 his parents went from overland to ———. 1In those days people had to {ravel in big covered wagons called prairie schooners, drawn by several horses, Then there were the light wagons called ambulances; besldes these, there were the mess wagons, pack mules and relay horses, Of course these needed a lot of teamsters and with my father's folks made quite a party. If they met or overtook any other | travelers, they were asked to join them | tn account of the Indians. Sometimes they ran into friendly tribes and at ther times they ran into troublesome so they were always on their | rd. Well, to get to the ineident which I wish to tell about: The teaws had been traveiing a long time without stopping, so upen coming te a spring beside a forest they thought they would camp and rest up for a few days, and see if they couldn’t get some deer, being tired of canned food. My father begged to go hunt- ing, too, so they let him go after cau- tioning him not to go far. Two hours went by before he re- turned, panting and gasping for breath, shouting: “I've killed him! T've killed him!" | His mother ran to him, crying: | “Oh, my boy, what have you killed?” When he could get his breath he said “Why, a deer, v, of course!” When they ad gotten over their fright, two or three of the men start- ed back with my father to find the deer. He took them straight to the place where he had shot the deer, through the brush, but upon looking they found it was onme of the burros belonging to the Indians. They were uneasy about it, knowing that would make trouble when the: hurried ba started right up camp and ay. ney away when the Indians caught up with them and made themselves quite troublesome until my grandfather p: | the chief,325 and so made peace with | them; bit that ended my fathers | hunting on that trip. { CORA OF NORWICH. MOTHERS SHOULD STUDY FOOD Editor of the Social Corner: In look- ing over the dc stic part of the So- cial Cormer I e mot yet seen any reference to whole wheat bread. Th are all sorts of recipes in which fine | white flour is used. | Professor Sherman of Columbia uni- | versity sa: “Lime starvation is be- coming almost universal among the people of the United States because of their use of fine flour bread.” Much has been said recently in favor of fine wheat flour because of its com- plete digestibility, forgetting that some undigested residue is absohitely neces- sary for health. Wheat contains the nutritive eiements in right proportions. Fine wheat fiour lacks one of the im- por‘ant nutritive elements—the Iime salts, Fine flour bread contains only ane grain of lime to the pound, while whoie bread contalns four times as much, Which is best, mothers, for vour growing children? Dr, Kellogg of the Battle Creek san- vs that the complete digest- ne flour bread is one of its able features, since it leads ipation, which in turn leads to nal auto-intoxieation, l{i]iuufint‘ss d numerous other troubles, We need to put more intelligent thought ints eur methods of feeding as well ag in other habits of life.

A meeting for the con- sideration of this matter will be held in the near future.” As the speaker finished reading the notice, almost unconsciously glances were directed toward Elizabeth Rich- mond. For it was well known among her acquaintances that it had long been her wish to take an active part in the foreign missionary field. Oakdale was beautifully sitGayell among the hills in an eastern state, and was considered unique in many respects. Many of the residents were descendants of pioneers of that sec- tion; and had bullt up homes of which they were justly proud, not forgetting, in their accumulation of material things, those qualities of character and mind which 4re superior. Until about flve years before the date of the happening which this stery relates there had been no church build- ing in Oakdale, the residents attending chureh in adjoining communities, Since its organization, hewever, the church had been very presperous; and the pastor, Rev, Mr, Rusnell, had heard many faverable eomments in regard te the spirit of unity and harmeny whieh prevailed. Henee, it was not strange that, though the chureh had aeesmplished much in the way of heme missionary work in the adjoining fac- tory towns, the minds of many should turn also to the broader and distant | field of foreign missions. = interest was-manifested in the fon .of the first missionary the h was to send out; and though there were a number who seemed spe- fitted for the work, the thoughts of all seemed to turn toward Elizabeth Richmond as the chosen one, This Elizabeth divined by the many remarks which she heard in regard to the sub- ject, and with great happiness and enthusiasm she talked with her moth- er concerping 1t “You know, mother, 1 have always wished to give my life to this kind of work; and I believe it was you who first caused me to see the wonderful possibilities for good in it, and it is a pleasure to remember how intensely interested father always was in for- eign missions; and if it should be my good fortune to be assigned to the very field where you and father were those ten years before your marriage, 1 should feelNthat the greatest wish of my life were realzed.” To Elizabeth it seemed strange that her mother, always so sympathetic and helpful in her plans, now responded in a manner lacking enthusiasm, as she . dear; T know what a wonderful is; and has always been very dear to your father and me; but there is 8o much work in life that is worthy of one's best effort, that it is difficult at times to decide. I am very ous that you should make no mis- ake in your decision, and feel that you will be guided rightly.” As her mother quietly spoke, the fact flashed itself into her mind that her mother had grown thin and sad, and there was in her face a wistfulness that she had not noticed before; and thinking to herself: “Oh, how have I been so blind!” she mused. “Why, my mind has been so fully occupied with the work I have planned to take up that I have failed to see that my own dear mother needs me more than anyone eise in the world —and how co6uld I for a moment for- get father's last words to me as his dear face, showing the confidence he felt in me, as he said: “Take care of mother’; and I might have made the dreadful mistake of leaving her! Oh,” ghe thought, “how glad 1-am that we are led in the right way if we are only willing to listen.” On the morning of the day when the meeting for the formal choosing of a candidate was 1o be held, Elizabeth reminded her mother of the fact, and | | | jacket and a cap to b embroidered.

I regret that I could not have realized this sooner, and thus have saved some delay in the decision of the matter. 1 wish to make an an- nouncement which I hope will meet with your approval. As most of you— being friends and neighbers for years —know, my father made provision for my future as to material things: and it now gives me the greatest pleasure of my life to divide this income, giv- ing a sufficlent amount for the sup- port of a missionary in the forelgn field, thus alding—though in a differ- ent w from that I had hoped—in the work I so much love.” . Ag Elizabeth resumed her seat there | was intense silence, broken at last by the pastor's voice in prayer. After which the meeting was open for dis- cussion. Immediately two young women who had been active in the church from childhood expressed their eagerness to be chosen for the work, winning the heartfelt approval of all present. At the close of the meeting Blizabeth was almost overwhelmed by the re- marks of her pastor and many others, commending her decision in the mat- ter and saying many kind words which she knew would gladden her mother on her return; and being eager to re- lieve her mother’s mind by announc-, ing her deciglon, she left the church early— and with peace and content- ment in her heart, wended her way homeward. To her many friends it was not a surprise to learn that the new prin- cipal in their local school was none other than Elizabeth. When the great day came for the departure of the |two missionaries, no parting words | iImpressed them as did Elizabeth’s, and the wistfulness in her face was under- stood by them. As the suoceeding weeks and monthe passed none could mistake the look of peace and happiness in Elizabeth's face; and her splendid work in school was commented on on all sides; but to her the following words of her pastor seemed to hold the most of comfort: “Elizabeth, I believe you are one of those fortunate ones who have bsen given @ clear and unmistakable vision of duty.” PATTY EMERALD, spoon of cream tartar (or a teaspoon of good baking powder), and sift all into the mixing dish *and wet with | sweet milk (or omit the cream tartar and use sour milk); roll as thin as to bake, and fill with stewed apple, stew- ed cranberries or mince meat.

Annual Round Trip M:d. by the Am- erican Golden Plover., Bird migration has always been and is yet a thing of much mystery. Let the man who has never felt the ‘hrill of this mystery take his atlas and turn to a map of the western hemisphere, Let him locate the Arctic islands north of North America, say 75 degrees north latitude, and with his pencil draw from there a line down along the coast of Labrador, across to New foundland and down to Nova Scotla, then across the Atlantic to the Lesser Antilles in the West Indies, from there to Brazil and across Argentina and finally halt his pencil in Patagonia. He will have traced thén what is said to be the southward migration of the American golden plover, says a writer in Outing. But let him con- tinue the course across to the Pacific, ! northward up the coast, then across Central America and up the Mississip- pi valley; through central Canada and back to the northern islands. He will then have mapped what naturalists have given as the vearly itinerary of this wonderful bird—a journey of some 15,000 miles, Very many of the little pilgrims that start “for the south never reach it. Not the least of the dangers en route is the encountering of the dazzling electric lights, tall buildings, telephone and telegraph wires, and other obstruc- tions in the cities, especially on cloudy nights when the flight is low. At such times the morning reveals the trage- dies of the night, when lfittla bruised bodies lying here and there in the streets tell of the havoc wrought. Terrible sufferers in this respect are the warblers. Also countless thou- sands of migrating birds have perished miserably by being blown out to sea by adverse gales, and bllzzards and unusually severe snowstorms have claimed unnumbered victims, The First Lifeboat. England has always held so proud a position in the maritime world and can claim the credit of so many valuable nautical inventions, says a London ex- charige, that it strikes one as strange that up to the year 1785 the idea of an efficient boat for saving life at sea had not occurred to any one.
