Confections for Tea Table
DAINTIES THAT WILL PLEASE
AFTERNOON CALLERS.
Many Kinds of Biscuit and Cake, and
of Course Jam, Are Served at
This Increasingly Popu-
lar Function.
Since the custom of taking aft-
ernoon tea is not only well estab-
lished in this country but now in
danger of becoming an untimely
feast, it is astonishing to note the
numerous little dainties and extra
trimmings which are being served to
pique and delight the appetite. It is no
longer merely a cup of tea and a slice
of thin bread and butter that may be
expected between four and 5:30
o'clock; jam has been added to the
list and often hot Scotch scones and
English muffins. Heaides the
table proper there stands usually a
sort of rack table, pyramidal In
shape and having three shelves, one
a'jove the other and round like plates.
Each one Is covered with attractive
china holding some fascinating bis-
cuit or cake. Jam of one or two kinds
i- suggested in between them and
after the hostess has ascertained
w Mich jam and biscuit her guest pre
tastiness. Other hostesses have fine,
small, flat wafers of whole wheat cov-
ered with chocolate in their own
kitchens before serving. They are
then above reproach to pass with tea.
The biscuit itself is digestible, the
chocolate tasty and nourishing. Bis-
cuits covered with cheese, on the
contrary, while highly agreeable to
the taste, are avoided by those hyper-
careful about their diet.
Strawberry jam is undoubtedly the
favorite for spreading on English
muffins. Blackberry jam or guava
is chosen to spread on the health
food biscuits, especially those made of
graham or whole wheat. Scotch
scones are spread only through the
middle with fresh butter. These
scones aro very similar to old-fash-
ioned soda biscuits and are Invariably
served hot. In size they are little
,ea I larger than a quarter of a dollar. The
number that some people can make
disappear is therefore readily coun
tenanced.
Wafer toast finds a place at after-
noou tea. In making It the bread Is
cut as thin as possible and it is then
toasted until extremely crisp. It is
eaten dry or with jam. but It is never
buttered.

Feed canaries mixed seeds, two
parts rape to one of canary seed, alter-
nating uow and then with some pre-
pared bird food. Give a little lettuca
or celery every day or two and a bit of
apple now and then. Give the yolk of
a hard-boiled egg once a week.
Let no stale food remain in the
cage, which should be cleaned every
day. and have fresh gravel three times
a week.
Keep the bird out of draughts. Don't
hang the cage on u high hook, where
he gets all the hot, vitiated air of the
room. Don't hang the cage in stroug
sunlight; the heat Is too much for
him.
Give him a balh every day In sum-
mer; every other lay during cold
weather.

vention is leSs trouble than a cure.
If you suspect them take the bird out

The canary Is a house bird. For
centuries this class of birds has been
raised Indoors, lie is not used to the
open air, and it Is a serious mistake to
give him much of it. if hung out of
doors some warm spring day he is
generally forgotten; the sun moves
on, the wind freshens up and he
catches cold. This results In partial
loss of voice, sometimes In permanent
loss.
Canaries cannot endure draughts
Their exposure to the open alt' should
be brief and careful.
MANY REASONS WHY IT IS THE
BEST POLICY.
SELF-INTEREST A BIG FEATURE
to the community which produced his
wealth and feel that we are done an
injustice by his failure to put his
money in home enterprises which
would increase the business and pros-
perity of our city. The criticism Is
justified and it holds just as good in a
lesser degree to the man who trades
out of town. It Is the same offense
on a smaller Bcale.
The effect of the reverse policy is
promptly seen. The writer has In
mind a notable Instance. Two cities
of about 15,000 population each are
situated on opposite sides of a liver

states. Each coutains several million-

Point About Which Parents Cannot
Be Too Careful.
Do you know that blindness Is grow

view of the fact that more and more
weak-sighted children are born each
year, the following hints should be
found useful to careful pareuts:
Don't let any false notions nbovit
appearances keep you from having
the children's eyes examined In early
childhood by a competent oculist. By
the early use of glasses many eyes
can be so strengthened as to make
them entirely serviceable without that
artificial aid later in life.

For Bridesmaids' Luncheon.
At one bridesmaids' luncheon given
last winter, across the confer of the
ible was a miniature road paved
with rice and outlined by clusters of
pink roses, the steips supporting them
tied with pink ribbons. At the end
of the road was a miniature (toy) au-
tomobile with Cupid as chauffeur,
with big rose-colored goggles on.
Strapped on the auto was a tiny trunk
tied with white ribbons and a toy

Some Facts About the Awful Suffering
of the People.
Over $100,000 has already been sent
from America to relieve the famine
sufferers In China.
"The paralyzing
fact:' about this
famine," says the
Christian Herald,
which has been so
active in collect-
ing relief funds,
"Is Its duration
and its geological
extent.. The worst
Is not yet. Five
months of utter
want Is the lot of
a third of the
Inhabitants of an
area almost as
large as the state
of New York.
Thus fur the deaths from
starvation have been comparatively
few—only a matter of a few thou-
sand at the outside estimate. Most
of these have been complicated by
disease or cold. From the standpoint
of the native, the mortality has not
been great. The grim reaper's great-
est harvest la still to come."
Writing from one of the great fam-
ine- camps, a correspondent of the
North China Herald savs that some ot
those who die of starvation are so
emacluted that the ribs literally pro-
trude through the skin, which Is
cracked, and the body Is practically
fieslileas. Of the multitudes congre-
gated in these camps, a very large
proportion have been either com-
pelled or persuaded to return to the
villages whence they came, and there
the final tragedy must be worked out.
Those who remain are housed in mat
huts, closely packed together. The
government dole of 80 cash (two
cents) per diem Ib distributed by of-
ficials. who are continually passing in
and through the crowds with wheel-
barrows laden with small copper
coins. As soon as the distribution Is
made the people swarm out to tha
grain market, where the rice, millet,
corn ami other foodstuffs supplied by
the .Shanghai relief committee aro sold
hi the lowest possible figure.

eagerly with hungry, wolfish eye*

Student Recruits Movement.
Kvery year during the Christmas
holidays the Young Men's Christian
associations In the universities and
colleges of California unite to hold a
religious conference for students nt
Pacific Grove. Al the last holiday
season the conference developed a
new movement very analogous in lta
origin and Its purpose to the student
volunteer movement which came out
of n like conference of eastern uni-
versities at Northfield In 18M. The
students at Pacific Grove, after pray-
er, formed tho "Student Recrulta
Movement." Those present sub-
scribed a pledge form reading: "I
purpose, if God permits, to become ft
minister of the gospel " They bound
themselves to solicit other "recrulta."
