Nut Graham Bread.â€" Three cups graham flour, one cup white flour, four teaspoons baking powder, one teaspo<3n salt, one-third cup mol- asses, one-half cup brown sugar twenty minutes. Bake one hour. one- qna.~.-cr teaspoonful salt. Process : Beat yolks of eggs until thick and light, add half the sugar gradually, beating constantly ; add watar or milk, and gradually remaining sug- ar. Beat mixture three minutes ; &dd extract, whites of eggs beaten until stiff ; mix and sift flour, bak- ing powder and salt, then cut and fold into first mixture. Butter and flour a shallow -cake pan, turn in mixture, spread evenly and bake in A moderate oven twenty-five minu- tes. General Directions for Making Cake. â€" Thin cakes require a hotter oven than those bak<>d in thick loaves. If the oven, be not hot enough at first or be cooled too sud- denly during the baking the cake will not be light. Mix cake in an earthen bowl and never in a tin pan. Use a wooden spoon, as iron spoons discolor the hand and the mixture. Coarse granulated sugar makes heavy cake, with a hard and sticky crust. Line your cake tins with paper to prevent burning the bottom and edges and to aid in re- moving the cakes from the pans- Lay the paper over the outside of the pan and crease it around the edge of the bottom. Allow it large enough to come above the edge of the pan. Break each egg on the «dge of the cup just enough to crack the middle of the sh-ell, so the white will flow out, but not hard enough to break into the yolk. Let the white run into the cup and keep the yolk in the half shell until all the white is drained off. Be careful aot to break the yolk, as the small- est portion of it in the whites will prevent them from frothing. Never stop beating the whites until they are stitf and dry, as it is impossible to have them light if they become liquid again. Mother's Cake. â€" One scant cup of butter, one and one-half cups sug- ar, three eggs beaten separately, one teaspoonful lemon or -vanilla, one salt-spoonful mace, one-half cup milk, three cups flour, one tea- spoonful cream of tartar, and one- half teaspoonful s<xla, or three lev- el teaspoonfuls baking powder. Cream the butter, add the sugar gradually then the yulks of the eggs, then, the flavoring; reserve a quarter of a cup of flour lest the cake be too stiff if all be used ; put the soda and cream of tartar into . - , , • , ^ , the remainder of the flour ; add the ^f.**''" *^*^" cleaning kitchen uten milk and flour alternatelv a rich (1 Sam. 25. 2), and who had the power that goes so frequently with wealth.

He bade his s<n'vant gather up the loose folds of his garment, and to pause for no salutations, lest his progress should be impeded. But the moth- er is not satisfied to have the staff and its master separated, for where ho is there is power. So with the woman, Elisha follows his servant, who meets them on the way with the news that the child has not re- vived. 32. The child was deadâ€" There is left no such doubt in this story as in some others in the Bible, as to whether the person was actually dead. 33-35.â€" Notice the earnest solic- itude displayetl by Elisha. He not only prayed, but used every means within his power to bring baek the breath of life. This was the order followed by Elijah at Zarcphath, and is the true method of approach- ing God in everything we seek from hiiu. protection, ' '•>'»««•, to a place where a man is in con- trol, give him one of the horses. ' .Vfter ninety-nine hens had been disposed of, he came to a house and made the usual inquiry. "I'm boss o' this farm," said the man. So the wife was called, and she affirmed her husband's assertion. "Take whichever horse you want," was the boy's reply. So the husband replied, "I'll take the bay." But the wife did not like the bay horse, and called her luisband aside and talked to him. He returned and said : â€" "I believe I'll take the grey horse." "Not much," said the young man. "You get a hen." V,::.'.T T'JE WESTERN PEOPLE ARE DOING. Progress of the Great West Told In u Few Pointed Items. There were 820 deaths in Vancou- ver last year. Nearly eight feet of snow have fallen in Rossland this winter. The new ^75,000 convent buildinj in Kamloops, B.C., is about com- pleted. The new Inland Hospital, to be built this year in Kamloops, will cost $125,000. The mayor of Vancouver is paid $5,000 a year and the aldermen $500 each. In the spring a salmon cannery and box factory will be started at Stewart, B.C. Calgary real estate men are preparing for an influx of farmers during March and April. Four feet of solid ore has been struck at the 1,050 foot level of the Rambler mine in the Slocan. Vancouver citizens are indignant because compulsory vaccination has been forced upon them. Last year there were 538 cases before the police court in Revel- stoke. The fines amounted to $4,000 Not for many winters has there been so much snow on the Saskat- chewan prairies as is the ca^c at present. David Oppenheimer is to be hon- ored by a memorial in Vancouver. He was one of the first mayors of that city. The B.C. Government has con- sented to the appointment of a com- mission to enquire into the high price of coal. A syndicate of Vancouver people has recently purchased 35 lots in the west end of New Westminster for $75,000. Two men, who pleaded guilty in Medicine Hat to cattle-stealing. were each sentenced to two years' imprisonment. Winnipeg Ministerial Association has unanimously elected Rabbi J. K.

Three months ago he paid the Dominion Covern- meat S4,250 for an annuity of 350 a month. Over 300 farmers young and old, attended the class of instruction on agricultural subjects held by the provincial government at Strath- more last week. On Kootenay Ljike the progressive ranchers are devoting their ener- gies to placing the recently formed Kootenay Fruit Growers Union, Limited, on a sound financial foot- in c. The entire province of Saskatche- wan is living from hand to mouth as regards fuel, and one more sev- ere storm will put the entire pro- vince right up against it for fuel. There are several sulphur springs in that part of British Columbi.-v known as the Pemberton Meadows. Just after the San Francisco earth- quake they stopped flowing for three months. Slack work is advertised by the miners' unions in three different mining districts of Alberta, the Royal collieries at Lethlwidge, Coal Creek, in the Crow's Nest Pass, and Bankhead. Operations at the Vancouver- Prince Rupert Meat Packing Com- pany's abbatoir, at Sapperton, are now in steady progress, .\bout 40 head of cattle and from ?0 to 100 hogs are despatclted daily.
