For a long, time I have made . a practice _of pufting down eggs in water glass, using several Those who have done likewise know that there is a white substance that clings to. thé jar after the eggs are used up and the remains of the wats poured off. This does not provent the use of the ereck for a similar purpose, but I have one which I would like to clean out for other use and wonder if some one of the sisters can tell me what to use to remove the whits substance. Does anyome know what will take it off? It will not be long before many of the sisters will be engaged in pickling so I am sending two recipes which are good: ONili Sauee—Twénty-four tomatoes, peeled and sliced, eight onions and four green peppers, cut up, six tablespeons su- gar, four tablespoons salt, one, pint vine- zar: Dissolve sugar in vinegar—add other ingredients, Boil over an heur.

At afternoon teas( luncheons or in fact fn any place where tea is served, one can create a great deal of amusement by telling fortunes by the tea leaves. “But” I hear you say, ‘“theré’s nothing in i, it's fogli@haeés? You are wrong there, gisters. There is any amount of fun and laughter wrapped up in the waird, uncanny looking tea leaves. Brew the tea fn a tea pot without a strainer, or put & teaspoon of tea in a tea cup itself and pour the hot tea di- reotly on it. The tea them must all pe drunk except a few drops that serve to kéep the leaves in circulation. The eup must be whirled three times, then turs- d into the saucer and turned again the mystic three times. The fortune teller ralses the cup and begins reading the fortune. A lover, efther man or woman, is rep- resented by a number of dots in.which one figure stands separte. Two dots side by elde mean an en- gagement. Three dots, side by side signify mar- riage, An offer of arrlags is shown by a knesling figure in a cup. A group of dots wrranged thres in x row means that the offer will be accepted —without them & lover has no chance. Threo large dots in shape af a par- allclogram will bear watching., These mean iliness, bad news or loss of money- Three large dots in triangular shape mean just the contrary—good news, fortune and good health. It you are -wlltlnf a lstter, the fol- lowing signs will tell you just what to éxpect: - Bour dots in a square tell of an important lettar. A dot within the square or just outside means there is something in the letter you will be glad to hear, or something you will want te receive, as money, & check, ete. Small flakes with- in the squars or near It Indleats bad news in the epfstle. _ It you wish for semething very much indeed, thres dots in the form of a tri- angle bid you hope. The wish fs about 1o come true. A long journey is denoted by a lerig lins of tiny dots extémding half around the cup—a group of dots and figures néar the terminus of the journey line indieate that you will be greeted by a mass meeting of & very large company of friends on your arrival. Lbok on tHe leaf that folds over the rim. This means that you are lkely to have a stroke of good luck very soon. The different shapes of leaves indieate Tegpective men, women and clothes, A long hard ieaf shows a man, small leave: or éven points upon the long leaf, take the form of his silk hat, cane, boots, ete. A woman is shown by a broader leaf or paler shade. She is often distingnis ed by her wide skirt, her bonmet, par- asol, ete. To ascertain whether or not the man or woman are friends or enemfes, exam- ine the space abeut them. If it iy filled | with tiny dots thickly settled, they* are hastile. If the space be clear and no dots appear immedately abaut them, they are good friends. A cross in the tea cup means the news of death. A group of trees standing separately meins vour wish will come s 2 your fortune next time youy have z cup of tes and seé how it come eut. A very little study of the rules printed it is Neazly always with above and you can learn the significance of thé various slgns formed by tea leaves and bscome an expert delineator— thus providing for yourself and friends almost endless amusement, It is an extremely lucrative “Jded at ehuréh fairs to have a sort of Eypsy|ended, the children in school, we will tent where cups of tea are sold and for- | take up the pen again. tunes told in the tea leaves by two at- tendants dressed as Tf the Oltl‘l:'..un cents the M‘Loh!mfi One of the sisters awhils agy was ahe disli ring the new i} in ‘| selt every minute. a time when they indulge hobbles possible amusement.

Hpo said the three large suspended lights in the yard@ were wind and when they all were burning it was a sign of an approaching hurricane. It is a mile from the dock over to th on the ocean side. Looking far out over the broad expanse of the Atlantic we had thoughts of how much life seemied like the restless sea. After watching the thundering billows break on the san- dy shore, we stroll back to where wé started from to find that the steamer New Shoreham has just arrived with passengers and & large consignment of freight. Sea food one of the chisf pro- ducts of Block Island ls very reason- able. Large flounders by barrel full were noted at the market at 12¢ per b, little neck clams, 75c per peck, “fresh iilled Block Island turkeys” (codfish) 05c per In. We were sorry, but they were going and thoss who were staying, aboard,” calls out the officer of the Norwich boat, which reminds us we must turn our faeé homeward Right nere was a bit of pathos about it, as we heard the many goodbyes between friends who were géing adn those who Were staying. One man was seen shaking hands with himself on shore, as the boat movad out into the channel. Except for a little ex- cifemént whep two large ihaneating sharks were seen floating along near the surface the sail to New London, where the only stop was made was uneventful. Reaching there we see the sister steamer Nelseco 1. “Say it with flowers” s quite a common expression these days, And like the strains of blisstul music, the sight o them to our tender emotions are s pealing. We note at the open statervom ‘window of the sound steamer, he Richard Peck, near by, the lovely blossom potted plants, alse ‘at the Thirmes bridge in contrast with the jmmense black steel girders on a shelf outside the keep- er's house, where no one was in sight, were mere flowers. After passing under the bridges, we climb the iron ladder and find the easy chair on the topmost deck, where we find the sail up tae river no less enjoyable than the one down the river and the campers on the river bank were waiting to welcome us as we passed by. As the summer sun was sinking in the west our boat slid into the quiet home harbor at last. So we frust that at life's sunset we all too, shall meat, iand cast the anchor by the bright celes- tial shore. M WHERE WE OAN HELF Dear Sisters of the Soclal Corner: “What terrible times are we living in! The world Wwas. never as bad as it is to- day I “We're hearing this on every hand. Is It true? “The good .old days’—how some of us wish them back! But turn to the pages of histery and search them. What awful miseries were suffered, what terrible crimes committed! Masquerading, some of them, under tne cloak of patriotism or religion, they were none the) less horrible. In the fifteenth century Sir Thomas Mallory, & worthy knight, thought that he was living in evil times. wadays men cannot even love 2 cause seven nights. There & no hcner, no stabllity,” he wrote. Centuries befors reacher” of Eeclesiastss was bemoaning, “Vanity of vanities, all is vanity" and declaring, “I have seen ail the works that are done under the san, and behold, all is variity and vexation of spirit.” \ There is much that Is wrong in the world today. No one can deny it. There is great lack of business honesty, person. al purity, national unselfishness. But there is also much that is fine, muen that is uplifting, much that js high-minded, unselfish and pure. The pessimist fvho insists that we are soon to follow the fate of former elvilizations mAy be right—or he may not be. But we and our childrsn have to live in fhe present. We cannot borrow the surroundings of the past nor can we fileh from the future. If the present is evil, we have helped make it 80. - And there is always the chance to bettor #t—in our own lives. Bemoaning the past will nev- er help—living the present wisely may Anyway, it’s worth trying. S.E. D. HOW TO USE SWEET CORN Déar Soelal Corner Sisters: Hers are many ways for using sweet corn: Corn Pudding: One dozen ears corn, two cups scalded milk, 1-2 teaspoan sait, 1 teaspoon sugar, 2 tablespoons butter, 3 tablespeons flour, 2 esgs.

The summer conferences began on Juns 27th with a young woman's confer- ence that was followed in quick sucees- | sion by the home missionary confarence, the ferelgn missionary conference, the cohference of 7 edueation, and the general conference of Christian workers. The last of the series, which ended on Aug. 20th, was the husetts Cheis tian Endeavor institute, meeting operation with the Endesvorers ot/ Con. necticut, Rhode Island and Vermont. 4 few of the meetings of the eonferences that were held in smaller bufidings were NGKWIGH BULLETIN, SATURDAY, for delezates only, but a great many were held in the auditorium end were free to all Who cared to attend them: The daily sunset service on Round Top 2lso was open o all. 3 Time wobld fall me to tell all of even the most noteworthy tiings that have been said and done during these gather- ings or to mention all the eminent men and women who have been hers. One of the most delightful vc:?uluu at the young woman's conferencd was Meggaret Siattery, fhe author of The Girl'and Her| Religion, The Girl in Her 'Teéns and Over the Brow of the Hill,. She made severa] fine addresses. Dr. Robert Speer @elivered a emlendid address at the for- ¢ign missioniary conferenge. Other American speakers hive been Dr. Cornelius Woelfkin of the Park Ave- nus Baptist chureh, New York eify, the church of Jehn D. Rockefeller, Jr’s, fa- mous Bible class, and Prof. Albert S. Clay, who is neted for his researches among Babylenian and Semitic antiqui- tles and for his knowliige of ‘Assyrian and Babylonizn likeraturs. Ameng iand to spesk at one of the conferences was Rev. F'. C. Spurr, present pastor and successer to F. B. Myer at Regent's Park Baptist ehureh, Landon; Rev. John Dan- iels Jomes, D.

Dear Sisters of the Soclal Corner: I have beer asked to susgest a bust reduc- er_and 1 send if as follows: Extend the arms straight out at the sidés, shéulders high, elbows straight. Rotate in eircles, small - at first and gradually growing larger till reach aimost ‘The f g _exercise is considered follgwiny d excellent: A exerciser costing a little over a dollar can up to the knees. Do this head and strike out as delivering s blow. It is clatmed three weeks of this exer cise will reduce the bust to half the size. This wears away the tissues and { hardens the muscles. SISTER OF THE CORNER GAS EcoNoMIES. Dear Cornerites: T know that aff [are not gas users but many of the sig- ters are fortunate enough to have gas in their homes and they ntust realise as the monthly bills come in that it makes a big difference in the cost wheth- er proper attention ulrlve_n to saving. gas. I have recently read some suggestioms on gas economy which I think worth) while passing along. i Don't use open-flame gas lights. Equip burners with mantles. | They save gas. Turn off the gas before, instead of aft. . er, removing the cooking utensils. Dom't permit a gas flame to overlap the sides of a vessel. Always boil water in a coversd tea- kettle.
