Ar-! range the sliced onion and tomato, in layers in the salad bowl and pour over them a plain salad dressing made by mixing together one tea-i cupful of salad oil, two tablespoon- ful.s of vinegar, a half teasnoonful of salt, and a half saltspoonful of pepper. Use this salad us soon as made. We should have said tliat young green onions may be used for this salad as well as the others. Cold Mont and Potato Salud. Cut ft pound of cold cooked meat into thin slices and then into small i squares, and mix with a pint of cold, chopped potatoes. Put a lay- er of this at the bottom of tlio naiad bowl, cover with chopped parsley , and salad dressing, put in niuither] laver of the meat mixture and again the dressing, and continue till all the material is used.

Sil- verware which is frequently washed with ammonia water will need cleaning much less often and much work be saved. Carpets if well sprinkled with salt and then wiped with cloth squeezed out of warm water con- taining a spoonful of. spirits of tur- pentine to every nuart will look bright and new and will not be troubled with ninths and buffalo Cranberries can be kept fresh for any length of time if placed in a jar of cold water changing the water often. " When washing any garment made of silk add a teaspoonful of methy- lated spirit to the water and iron while damp. The silk will look just like new. Coddled eggs are so good the re- cipe will bear being repeated. Fill a pitcher with boiling water, drop the egg into it, and let it stand five minutes or more. The egg will be clear like jelly and extremely diges- tible. - Postage stamps carried in a purse or handbag will often be found stuck together. . Never attempt to 1 separate them by pulling them, but simply lay them flat and press with a hot iron. They will then separ- ate quite easily. To remove coffee stains from silk, satin, or any other material, soak in glycerine ; then rub gently with a soft cloth. Rinse with warm water, cover with a dry cloth, and iron tho wet portion until dry. Dates stuffed with peanut butter and then rolled in sugar are a pleas- ing change from dates stuffed with nuta. If a curtain pole or portiere is rubbed with hard soap before being put up the draperies will slip on easily. Cheese may be kept soft and good for a long time if wrapped in a cloth wrung out in vinegar and then wrapped again in dry cloth.

"After drinking coffee for break- fast I always felt languid and dull, having no ambition to get to my morning duties. Then in about an hour or so a weak, nervous derange- j ment of the heart and stomach | would come Qver me with such force I would frequently have- to lie down." Tea is just as harmful, because it contains caffeine, tho same drug found in coffee. "At other times I had severe headaches ; stomach finally became affected and digestion BO impaired ' that I had serious chronic dyspep- 1 sia and constipation. A lady, for manv years State President of the W. C.'T. U., told me she had been greatly benefited by quitting coffee and using Postum ; she was trou- bled for years with asthma. She said it was no cross to quit coffee when she found sue could >iave aa| delicious an article as Postum. "Another lady, who had bft-r. troubled with chronic dyspepsia for years, found immediate relief on ceasing coffee and using Po-jtum. Still another friend told me that Postum was a Godsend, her heart trouble having been relieved after leaving off coffee and taking on Postum. "So many such cases cam* to my notice that I concluded coffee was the cause of my trouble and I quit and took up Postum. I am more than pleased to say that my days of trouble have disappeared.

A folder which fully describes an attractive 7 per cent, investment, carrying a profit-sharing feature as well, may be obtained by writing to Tho National Securities Corpora- tion, Limited, Confederation Life Building, Toronto, Ont. The investment described is in the form of profit-sharing bonds, which are amply secured. In this in- stance, the National Securities Corporation, Ltd., acts AS a hold- ing company for two manufacturing companies whose combined capital- ization is $1,300,000. Ho ih of these companies have been particularly successful ever since their forma- tion, ami for the last few years have operated under tho handicap of only being able to take care of about 00 per cent, of tho business available, although working at full capacity. The present bond issue is for the purpose of enlarging these plants so that they may handle all orders, and to enable them to acquire timber limits now under option^ and which will doubt lew largely increase in \nhio in the next few yearn. CANNIBALS AM) MURDERERS EXPERIENCES AMONG THE Ht DSOX BAY ESKIMOS. Missionary Tells of Lawless People Among Whom He Worked. A great work is being done far up on the north-east shores of Hudson Bay in converting the wandering Indians and Eskimos who inhabit that desolate region to Christian- ity. A devoted little, band of three or four Christian pioneers is sta- tioned there, and a member of that j "Arctic mission," who is in Eng- land for a short "leave," gave some of his experiences of the country and people. "I am stationed at a tiny settle- ment on Great Whale River," said the Rev. W. 'G. Walton, "and the 'town' consists of two houses and a 'store.' I live at one of the houses with a Hudson Bay trader. We get two mails a year out there- but the newspapers only visit us once, so that you can imagine our expecta- tion when newspaper day conies round. At the end of August every year a ship calls, and we have to be very careful to remember to order everything we want, because if we forgot anything we should have to wait another year. The Eskimos never wash themselves. "Washing" Children. "I have often seen an Eskimo woman washing her young children like a cat does a kitten by licking them all over. Their only means of livelihood lie in catching seals. They are always on the lookout for seal hole* in the ice. They eat the blubber, that is, the fat of the seal, and clothe themselves or at any rate make their trousers out of sealskin. It is very cold IS de- grees below zero aa a rule and we Europeans have to keep roaring fire* going in every room of our house. "Tho people don't live in villages, but separately in families, so as to have as wide a field for hunting as possible. They are a very revenge- ful people. A short while ago an Eskimo was out hunting and saw a black dot in the distance on the ice. On approaching he made certain that it was a seal just protruding from a seal hole. Bloody Feud. He fired and hit it. but when he got up to it he found ih:i.t he hail accidentally allot a man. Ho called on the widow, said how sorry he was, and, promising to help the wo- man, asked for forgiveness. The son of Uie- dead man entered, and, when ho heard, rushed off and kill- ed all the unfortunate hunter's family in revenge. In retaliation the hunter killed all the dead man's family, and so the feud began. When we. were informed of this and came to investigate we found that there was only one man surviving out of two families of about 17 per- sons. We oould do nothing but lec- ture the survivor. "They were terribly lawless until we came, aaid even now when in the grip of starvation commit the most awful deeds. Irately a mother, rav- aged terribly by hunger, went to the length of eating her two chil- dren. Another killed his wife and lived on her, and when she had been oaten uo tried to murder throe other men's*- children. Luckily he was prevented. Tnare are no na tive laws. They don't teaJ. but think nothing of murder. When they are 'put out,' as the saying goe*, they mu*t take- a life. They don't mind whom they kill when they are angry as long as they kill pome one. There i no sort of pun- i.shiueiii for the crime. They are very fond of singing, and their fav- orite or only gam* is connected thereVkh. A piece of seal bone, with a little* hole in it, i suspended from tho 'roof.' They all sit round the 'room,' and each trie to throw an arrow into the hole. He who succeeds has to sing a song, but he who sings moot songe win> tiie game. They get enormously enthu- siastic over this pastime. They have large families, and the raee would increase tremendously wr it not for accidents and murder*. They are, howYr, very imprMd by the Christian creed, and we are gradually getting thorn to change their waya." A GRACEFUL TRIBUTE! Small Union Jack Worn on the Arm of the Berlin, Police. Despite the mutual suspicion which unfortunately exists between Great Britain and Germany. A tri- bute, which may, or may not, be a graceful one, has lately been paid to the British tourist in Germany by the authorities at Berlin. A cer- tain number of the Berlin police force now go about with a beautiful miniature Union Jack embroidered o"h their sleeves, in token of the fact that they are linguistically qualified to answer any question which t-be> inquisitive Britsh. tourist may like to put to them. The miniature Union Jack, in other words, signi- fies : ''Here is English spoken." There are plentv of Italians, Aus- trians, and people of other nation- alities to be met with in Berlin, but no policeman wears the national flag of any of them embroidered on his coat-sleeve. Can it be that the Berliner loves the British above them all Alas, no! It merely means that, of all tourists, the Bri- tish specimen, alone can be relied on with confidence to be able to speak no language but his own.

Kven at that, however, the best, workers say take one thing t a time and get it dom> with. If you hav to work your way through crowd in the streets at on>e gre-t' occasion it is only done by getting, paat one person at a time, ami it ia astonishing how it is done by aotn when it seems impossible to others,! and by tto-me who can do it without, rudeness.
