theo Sloanes 11V MARY JOSYLN SMITH was on the morning of fif teenth of August that there was a groat in the kitchen- all the city folks had taken the Burr place for the summer The kitchen was a wonderful place Mr and Mrs always called each other pa and ina This particular morning pa did not feel very well was threatened with ague chills and sat in the kitchen as the stove as ma would lot him considering it was one of her bake days They did their own work but then there was a regular slew of women folks in that Mrs made the fried cakes for in that house they had fried cakes summer and winter Then she made apple and blackberry pies that morning getting fruit all from their own Cousin Liza was making her summer visit there and when she came she made the ginger They had her recipe written in a book with all the par ticulars but no could make the cake with just the trouble and the shake that Cousin Liza The recipe was plain Two eggs butter the size of an egg tablespoon of cloves cinnamon nutmeg to taste a cup of dark molasses a cup of brown sugar a good bowl of sour milk with desert spoon of soda and flour to make a dough Cousin Liza said maybe the flour business made the trouble some peo ple put so much in that it made a stiff cake or little that it would fall flat as a pancake in the big drip ping pan in which it was to be baked Or it might be the oven for it needed a good deal of judgment about the The pitcher of saltrising was in a pail of warm water upon the high oven and soon after dinner that would huff up and be made into loaves and what white bread it was I Pa had dyspepsia and thought he could eat no other bread Aunt Lois lived there too and she was a martyr to dishwashing on these important days She started in promptly after break fast to wash dishes and there would be an additional pyramid from tho baking department every now and then until at halfpast eleven she sometimes had the thickest of them cleared away Mrs daughter Jane was putting the house to rights and after a little would come to iron with baking fire for firewood was wasted in that house The three sons wore up on the farm a mile awayv tending to the hay and mending and at noon would come down hungry as sharks in view of which a big kcttlo of boiled vituals was being prepared but with all the work there was a babel of talking Liza did not know anything about the from the citv bo thing had to be explained to her Pa how many calves did you say had to bo killed by tho butchers in two villages when wore getting ready for that tallyho party from the city called out Mrs They have calves- head jelly you know ami positively they expect that cream flows almost in here It is all right to soil to them hut you cant sell what you want yourself at least Im not going to rattled on Mrs for any question Mr roused himself and spoke up What are you women always bothering your heads these for Why dont you let them alone What has started you off now Why pa dont you know about our invitation You must get over your ague before tonight if you want the honor of paying a visit What now asked pa Martin Shatter here going to her work in the tailor that she had directed to oak all neighbor to go to Mrs tonight we should call around any time convenient that we were to see Mrs Sloane in bloomer dress Aunt Lois explained to Cousin Liza that Mrs was a big woman and would look about asgrace- ful as a cow in bloomers Pity isnt it such people dont have some work to do so they would nt make themselves so ridiculous get ting up things was another of Ma wise sayings as she added more and inoie to her store of bak ing In the afternoon the dropped into Mrs as a sort of headquarters and talked over the whole question of dress and of city people thinking country people did not know anything They decided they would not go near the house Did you hear the joke on Mrs asked one of the neighbors No what was it all exclaimed Well she was at the Comers and asked if there was a library here Joe Green of course was on hand and he said yes he believed there was and that it was in charge of the cobbler over tho way Mr Fortes the cobbler told the the rest of the story the other day He said she came and asked him and he said he reckoned there were some books in the Seems the old library that was started and failed was moved around to get them out of the way until it was put in the cellar there of the old house where he has a bors gathered in but now she raised her head from her work and said You hotter go to Mrs to night and decide afterward about your letters Long ago when I was a girl an anonymous letter was considered mark of illbreeding I dont know what people would think about them did not know but what they wore a lost art Evening came and they did all go to Mrs and she had a beautiful cereus to show them It seemed that in the morning she felt sure that the plant would blossom that night and she told her coachman to have any come to see it who wished to do so Tho coachman saw Martha and thought it would save him all tho bother if he told her to tell the people Martha said in explanation that she told it as she understood it and she was sure she was not hard of hearing Nobody could ever make out how Night blooming could sound like dressed in bloomers tonight but the party concluded to be friends with Mrs if would let them from that time forth Saved ipom Paralysis and Death by Celery Compound Wells Richardson- Co Silts I have much pleasure in recommending Celery Com pound for nervousness and weakness with which I was sorely afflicted for a number of years and for which my doctor could give me no relief I be came very weak and had a stroke of paralysis I was confined to my bed and the doctor requested me to try a of your medicine as the last thing that could be done I did recommended and before 1 had finish ed the first bottle I experienced a change I am glad to say that I am cured through the use of Celery Compound I have recom mended it to others and they have been by it it has worked miracles for me Yours truly Mrs Cobourg Out The Coming Plebiscite from Globe The announcement that the plebi scite on prohibition will take place at the end of next month brings in dividual elector face to face with a great problem and one of surpassing interest It is not too much to say that students of sociology all over the world are watching for the result of the coming vote The Plebiscite itself Is a novel thing on this side of the Atr lantic for although it has been used on several occasions in certain States and in our own Province to determine public opinion on such questions as shop He got a candle and told her the suppression of the liquor traffic himself as the glutton does a large part of the excuse for united public action to suppress drunkeness would be removed But the cases are not at all analogous and the sneer of the antiprohibitionist who says they will ho regulating what we shall eat next is not warranted If the glut ton while under the influence of his vice sallied forth to do murder or his wife and neglected his child ren if our prisons and hospitals and were filled with victims of gluttony it is entirety probable that there would be a strong movement against it Drunkenness in its effect on the community is all embracing It may le a natural right to use liquor just as it is a natural right to dig a well in ones garden If how ever the whole community is put to great expense and its safety and health endangered because the well provides feverproducing water our natural right to use the water vanishes and if we would remain in the com munity the well must Ik filled up This brings up for consideration the moral suasion and voluntary ac tion wing of temperance reformers Ill effect they tell us that if prohibi tion is attempted the result will be to arouse against it the feeling that is always roused among free men when coercion is attempted Some indeed go so far as to say that men who do not drink now and never thjnk of en tering a saloon would at once develop an uncontrollable thirst and drink out of a bottle in the cellar of some dive to vindicate their right to liberty and the pursuit of happiness Admitting that there are some men so constitut ed and that this would occur to a certain extent and would be accom panied by more or less deceit and perjury there is the reverse side of the shield The average man who be comes intoxicated does not do so of set purpose It is the open door that en tices him On no basis can we explain the very decrease in drinking in of late years The cutting off of a Urge proportion of the licensed and the refusal of the commissioners to give licenses in the residential districts have made it possible for one to walk for miles along the uptown streets without pas sing a saloon and the men who when walking together would go in and take a drink if a saloon were near are too indifferent to walk a mile or so to find one In the matter of treating therefore which is the commonest road to intoxication among thoso who are not habitual drunkards half the battle is won by the removal of the saloon The question compulsion versus voluntary temperance does not enter into the transaction The treat ing habit is largely continued because of the opportunity afforded by the open saloon door and very few of those who now treat would continue the practice if it involved a visit to some disreputable outoftheway dive to come on in the cellar and not fall over the old stairs and then he put his hand into an old cheese safe and hauled out two musty books the Life of Washington and Life among the Mormons And will you it she took homo Life among the Mor mons What did she want of that do you think Mrs suggested that Mrs just wanted to see what they had there and bye and bye would make out they were a sort of heathen Pa tried to quiet the jargon by saying that the city lady seemed very kind and nice to him But he was silenced by a volley of words from his wife who said that Martha and pa seemed to be champions of the new people and must be they expected pay for their trouble However pa ventured once more to say that Mr talked of buying the place and if he did that he would likely do something nice for their town if tho women did not make it too uncomfortable for his family What if we write an letter to Mrs and tell her we have sense and dont need to be invited to see her in bloomers said one of the afternoon visitors Grandma a lady of the old school sat in her corner mending and calm as a June day Nobody remembered to have seen her up In the Civil- War days when there were war meetings and people were excited would this is nothing like the time of the great alarm Her memory went back to that time She seldom join ed in the conversation when the this is the first time of its application in the national sphere to a great issue of social reform in the settlement of which party ties and are cast aside It must lie gratifying to all patriotic Canadians to see in the discussion that has been in progress for months no sign of party spirit no attempt to make party capital but rather a desire to raise the question above the level of and deal with it solely from the standpoint of good citizenship In this spirit it is to be hoped tho campaign will be con ducted to the end In the discussion of prohibition one can scarcely fail to be impressed by the fact that an overwhelming propor tion of the people of Canada believe strongly in the effectiveness of legis lative action following upon and secur ing the fruits of temperance work There are still some us who oppose prohibitory restrictive legis lation on the ground that the State has no right to dictate to the individ ual as to what he shall eat or what he shall drink that it is the abuse of liquor that constitutes the evil and that those who use it properly should not lo deprived of a natural right be cause a few in the community cannot control their appetite Those who still cling to this position are either extreme individualists who advance similar objections to vaccination and public schools and sanitary laws or they are engaged in liquor and use the argument for individual as the one likely to ap peal to the average man It is true that whore fit drunkard only injur Pitchers Caetorla The advocates of natural liberty and voluntary action constitute but a small part of the people of Canada The great mass of the people not only strongly in favor of temperance but also of legislative action In large sections of the Maritime Provinces there is even now practical prohib ition It has been said that Quebec will oppose a national prohibitory law but if this should prove true it certainly is not because Quebec is less temper ate than Canada In a notable speech in the House of Commons Sir Wilfrid Laurier pointed out that throughout whole tiers of counties in that Province there were no houses licensed to sell ardent spirits and that Quebec through the devoted philanthropy of its clergy was in the very forefront of temperance reform If therefore that Province votes a- gainst a prohibitory law it will be largely because of the failure to real ize the need for it rather than because of opposition to the temperance move ment The question seems to he most frequently asked in Ontario is not as to the justice of prohibition but whether temperance sentiment is strong enough to secure the enforce ment of a prohibitory law It is re cognized by the leaders of the temper ance movement that a prohibitory law that had not behind it the sym pathy and support of a large majority of the people would be a serious blow to the temperance cause and that it would be better to wait longer tor such a condition of pubito opinion as would ensure the permanent retention pro hibitory legislation than to force pro hibition upon an unwilling people by a majority of a few thousand it cannot altogether be forgotten that prohibition will involve the levying of some of taxation that Is now obtained from liquor upon some other article of commerce or the of revenue by way of death duties a poll tax or the like No matter how this burden is there will be grumbler and the tendency will be to lessen the popularity and estrange the supporters of the abstract question Looking at the question as a whole however and recognizing its difficult ies but recognizing also the advance in moral and material well that would effective prohibition we cannot see any reason why temperance nun at the criais history of the movement in Canada should fail to record votes for prohibition To stay from the polls mean moral cowardice To vote prohibition even when one ha doubt as to time is fully ripe for it will be wrongly constructed both at home and abroad as a vote against temper ance Every vote for prohibition on the other hand even if the measure is not adopted is evidence of the strength of temperance sentiment of the ripen ing of public opinion in favor of pro hibition and of the desire that Can ada should occupy a high place among the enlightened nations of the earth Carrots act directly on the liver and therefore young carrots plainly boiled or carrot soup which made- of older carrots boiled arid pulped through a sieve into a little weak stock are wholesome To matoes stimulate the liver and the stomach generally Should a horse refuse to drink and cough after swallowing a little it indicates sore throat or swelling of the glands of the neck It is one of the symptoms of distemper Give the horse a warm bran mash with dracham of chlorate of potash in it daily for a week or ten days There is nothing serious to be apprehended Fruit growers who are not asham ed of the quality of fruit they pack for the markets are now having their names and address printed on cards which they insert or tack on the basket as an advertisement of their fruit People who have tried the scheme in years past report it being the means of their disposing of hun dreds of dollars worth of their fruit at good prices One day recently Mr John Heron of Highland Creek was annoyed by a hornets nest which he had to pass with his loaded teams on the way to the barns The hornets were contin ually stinging the men and teams Thereupon Mr Heron a brilliant idea He threw a quantity of water around the nest took a pole with a rag saturated with coal oil wrapped arounc it and with it set fire to the nest The fire spread with lightning rapidity destroying the nest and the outbuildings A respectable lady citizen of Tot tenham the other morning had a bad earache and in great confidence ap- plied her usual remedy sweet oil After half an hour the pain being no better the liquid was again applied and our friend waited patiently for im provement that never came Mrs was greatly surprised as the re medy had never failed her before All was made plain however a few hours afterwards when she went to do up her hair and found it glued to the side of her head and had to be re moved with a Our good friend had used tho mucilage bottle The Grand Trunk Railway Co is determined to leave nothing undone that will possibly add to the comfort and convenience of its patrons It has just placed twentysix new coach es on the system and it is no exag geration to say that in artistic work manship completeness of details in their appointments and in finish they surpass anything of the kind that has hitherto been on a Canadian rail way in fact it is doubtful whether their superior may be found on any railway in world The new coach es are Veritable palaces on wheels and the work done at the Grand Trunk workshops reflects highest credit on Canadian skill and workmanship ttlMB tick vis ft for lite tha to nix fed ft them
