There are no simpler and yet en- tirely satisfactory desserts for sum- mer than those made with milk and rennet tablets. Most cooks think of junkets only in relation to sick people and they fail to appreciate the possi- bilities in using them in place of the puddings which take so much longer to prepare. To make a good junket, the milk should never be heated above low blood warmth â€" simply take off the chill, but never heat to a steam. It is well to pour the desired quan tity of milk into the pan and let it set a little while with the sugar to dissolve it. Also have the rennet tab- let dissolving in a little cold water; crush it well and have the molds ready, set in the place where they are to chill. Moving them about is apt to break the junket and spoil its appear- ance. With this foundation, there is no end of flavors one can use to make the des.sert really inteiesting. When cher- ries are 'stewed, chill and drain them of their juice, place a large table- spoonful in the bottom of each dish, and pour the junket into it. When ready to serve, add another table- spoonful of cherries on top, or, if pos- sible, whipped cream. Cantaloupe scooped out and chilled, set firmly on plates and filled with junket whi;;h has been simply flavored with vanilla, is excellent. A few pieces of chopped canned pineapple with a tablespoonful of shredded cocoanut also combine.s well with vanilla. Flavored with lemon extract, a des- sert is quickly made with chopped peanuts spread over the top after it has set. A very good chocolate junket is made by adding two tablespoonfuls of cocoa, .softened in u little milk, to the vanilla pudding and adding a few chopped nuts as it sets. If the whites of two eggs are beaten very stiff and two tablespoonfuls of melted currant juice folded in with a little sugar, plain almond, vanilla or lemon junket can be made very at- tractive by serving with tinted mounds of meringue. Instead of dust- ing the top with nutmeg, try a little ground cinnamon. Or serve the jun- kets with fresh sliced peaches or blackberry preserve The secret of making this simple dessert seem extraordinary is to leave It undisturbed while chilling, adding the final touches only just before serv- ing.

In the following poem there is no high literary merit, but it remains pos- sibly the most complete Itst of ob- servations of the signs of coming rain in the language. It was written by Dr. Edward Jennor, the discoverer of vac- cination. The hcUow winds begin to blow. The clouds look black, the grass la low. The soot falls down, the spaniels sleep, The spiders from their cobwebs peep: Last night the sun vent pale to bed, The moon In ha'oes hides her head; The boding shepherd heaves a sigh, For see, a rainbow spans the sky. The walls are damp, the ditches smell, Closed Is the plnk-eyt d pimpernel. Hark how the chairs and tables crack! Old Betty's Joints are on the rack; Loud quack the ducks, the peacocks cry, The distant hills are seeming nigh. How restless are the snorting swine, The busy flies disturb the klne; Low o'er the grass th^ swallow wlnga. The cricket, too, how sLarp he sings; Puss on tlie hearth, with velvet paws, Sits wiping o'er her whisker'd Jaws. Through the clear stream the fishes rise. And nimbly catch the Incautious flies. The glow-wornifi, numerous and bright. Illumed the dewy dell last night. At dusk the squalid toad was seen Hopping and crawling o'er the green; The whirling wind the dust obeys. And In the rapid eddy plays; The frog has changed his yellow vest. And In a russet coat is dressed. Though June, the air Is cold and still. The mellow blackbird's voice Is shrill. My dog, so altered In Ms taste. Quits mutton-bones on grass to feast; And see yon rooks how odd tlielr flight, They imitate the gliding kite, And seem precipitate to fall As If they felt the piercing ball.

He traced the beginning of his Christian life to the influence of that simple Christian woman. She it was who taught him to love his Bible. She was Indeed his only guide. Throughout his life he prayed the prayer that she had taug'ht his youth- ful lips to speak. Shaftesbury shared this Indebted- ness to some simple serving women with some of the foremost men of the nineteenth century. Archbishop Tail's mother died whilst he was quite a child. He owed some of life's most wholesome and abiding influences to the nurse who presided over his youth- ful destinies. Dean Stanley was siuiiUirly indebted and In the mid-course of his career refused a royal command to dine with Queen Victoria that he might atlead the funeral of his oldnurse. Men are not supposed to refuse such royal com- mands â€" once received that becomes the day's supreme engagement; but after all there are other eugagemsat» of loyalty and of gratitude.

Nurse Plays Big Part in Developing Character. Quite an intere«tlng hook oould be written upon the Indebtedness of fa- mous men In their childhood to the Influence of some old nurse. Lord Shaftabury, for Instancce, to whose In- fluence and perseverrnce so many of the social reformers of the last cen- tury were due, owed almost everything to the religious Influence of his nurse, I writes P. g. H. in "The Homlletlc Re- ! view." j His mother was Just a flne society Had Been Convicted, Too, "Do you think that fellow has ever been open to conviction?" "Yes â€" and been convicted, too." To Be Helped By Us â€" No Doubt The child of active mind begins eai^ ly to Inquire into the riddle of tho universe. Prof. George H. Palmer of Harvard University likes to toll a story that illustrates that truth. A little boy and girl of my acquaint* ance, he eays, were tucked up snug in bed when their mother heard them talking. "I wonder what we're here fort" asked the little boy. The little girl remembered tho les- sons that had been taught her and re- plied sweetly. "We are here to help others." The little boy sniffed. "Then what are the others here for?" WATER PUMPS FOR FORDS Keeps Them Cool in Summer and No Freezing in Winter. REGULAR PRICE $7.00 WHILE THEY LAST $2.95 POSTAGE 2Bc. All complete with belt*.
