It is well to remember that varn- ishinji: -should not be done in rooms when the temperature is below 70 dejfrees, as sucli a cold temperature retards the drying too much. Nor should it be doi;e when the ventila- j tion is poor, as this has somewhat the same effect. Cold varnish should not be applied to warm wood nor warm varni.sh to cold wood. All surraces to be varnished should be sandflaper- e 1 carefully so that all dirt is remov- ed and a smooth surface obtained.

How to keep this delicious article from moulding is troubling the housewife, or will trouble her later on. "We do ours up, boiling, in air- tight cans, and yet it moulds," writes one. "What can we do?" Ans. â€" In order to keep mnpie syrup through the heat of sumTrer, or for any length of time, boil it down till it weighs 11 pounds to the gallon without the tin can or vessel which holds it. When thus boiled down it is allowed to cool and then put up in cans or receptacles, which are filled to the full and practically airtight. Bottles may be used if filled to the top and corked tightly. Keep' in dark, cool closet, covers! with brown paper, and it will keep "good as new" for years. If the syrup weighs less than 11 pounds per gallon, and much annu- ally made does, it will not keep well through vv'urm weather. On the other hand, if it weighs mere than this amount per gallon, it is apt to crys- talli^:; into sugar in the bottom of the can. Syrup that has started to "work" can be brought to a very good condition by rebelling, adding hot water at first, if necessary, and skimming all foreign matter from the top. This clarifying may be has- tened by adding a smidl cupful of milk to u gallon or so of the syrup while it is boilInK; for a minute or so it will look as though the whole mass was ruined, but graduiilly as it boils the milk will cari:y the syrup nioeiy, and all the scum will be gathered into a thick mass eusy to remova.

WOLFS3N 67 Yonge St. - Toronto "CANADA IN YPRE3."' Memorial Building V/ill Include Rolic» of Gsllant Defence of City. An officer of the Canadian head- quarters staff interviewed recently, said that the Canadian memorial building at Yprea would include a museum of relics connected with the Ciinadian defence of Ypres, also a libriiry of everything published con- cernipg the battlr:; of the salient, says a LoiulQU despatch. Models of trench- es;, picffuies and official photographs and a roster of all the Canadian dead would also be included. "Such a building would be to Can- f.dlans what Shakespeare's house Is to visitors to Stratford-on-Avon. When the transfijr is effected we propose to convert this ground into a veritable fragment of living Canada amidst the ruin.s by planting I'laule trees and Canadian shrubs and flowers. "Cana- da in V'pres" would, I think be a good title for \vh;it Vv-o propose to effect here."
