Simmered FOWLâ€"No matter how tough or hopeless a fowl may seem roast it, first to give the meat a flavor. This must. be done slowly and carefully, basting at frequent in- tervals. When it is nicely colored, split dowu the back and lay it flat. in covered h'um boiler. Pour in all .the gravy from the roasting pan and rinse same well with an equal quan- tity of hot water. Add a liberal Stewed Fishâ€"Stew any of the wliiteflesihed fishes with sliced car- rots, turnips and onions, a bit of celery root and parsley until rather tender. Then strain out all vege- tables l'rom the cooking water; add oneâ€"half cup of white Wine vinegar (for each pound of fish); also sliced and pared lemons in the same pro- portion. Let the fish finish stewing and lift it out carefully on a. platter. Add the beaten yolks of egg to the liquid, stirring carefully to prevent curdling. until a thin custard has been formed. Throw this over fish. Scotch Shortcakeâ€"Scotch short- ca‘~'e is made th‘us, when a simple desert is wanted: Make an ordinary cookie dough, flavoring with either lemon or vanilla, and cut into forms. Butter each lightly and sprinkle with the candied seeds of various colors obtainable at the confectioner’s. Bake in cookie tins and serve hot, or cold. Quince Jelly.â€"'1‘his is generally made of the purings and cores of the quinces. The jelly is better flavored if the seeds are removed. Cover the parings with Water and cook till ben- der, and strain the juice in the usual way. Boil the juice twenty minutes, then measure and to each pint allow a. scant poun'd of agar.

Make a syrup with three quarters of a pound of sugar and one cup of the Water in which the quinces Were cooked to each pound of fruit. Doll and skim this until it is a rich syrup; put the quinces in it and cook, very slowly, till they are clear. Preserves made this way are Idel-icions and not at all like the Ltough “Chippy” quince prepared without the previous cooking or cooked with the sugar. One can add one-half sweet-apple (cooking the tWO fruits separately the first time) and the preserve will be much more do- licate than if all quince. Quince Marmaladeâ€"For this the imperfect quarters of the fruit cut tor preserves can be used. Propane the fruit as directed above, only us- ,ing as little water as will cook it. When thoroughly soft, add the sugar, allowing threeâ€"fourths of a pound to a pound of fruit. Cook till a homoâ€" geneous moss, not too thick, for marmalade should not be “cheesy.” One should have an asbestos mat to put under the kettle, as marmalade burns easily. A considerable pro- portion of sweet-apple can be used to advantage with the quinces.

When the leaves begin to turn, ‘most of the people who admire the 'beauty of the woods then say, "How wonderful!" never wonder what it is that changes the green into the splendid glowing tints of autumn, Ask nine persons out of ten, and if they hazard a guess at all they will probably say that the frost has tinted the leaves. But fllxe frost has nothing to ‘do with it. Leaves colorâ€" ed by a frost look quite different from leaves colored in the due course of nature. The coloring of the leaves is due to a. genuine preparation for winter which goes on among the trees and shrubs, just as it; does in the animal. World. The leaves, as you know, are tlie feeders of the trees. Now, as the autumn arrives and tlie time ap- proaches when the leaves must suâ€" spend their functions, there is a. great hurry in the arteries and veins of the plants to extract all the nouris’hâ€" ment that is left, and to store it away deep in the trunk and branches, to stay there througli the time of away deep in the trunk and branches, to stay there througli the time of frost and snow.

Sold by di'uggists or direct; by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 by writing The Dr. Williams’ Medicine 00., Brockville, Out. ‘ tacks the No part of the human system is more sensitive than the nerves. Many of the most excruciating pains that afflict mankind come from weak, shaky, shattered nerves, and among the nerve pains there is perhaps none causes more intense sullering than neuralgia, which generally at- nerves of the face and head, sometimes causing swift, dartâ€" ing, agonizing painsâ€"at other times a dull, heavy aching feeling which makes life miserable. There is only one way to get rid of neuralgia and other nervous troubles, and that is through the. blood. Poor, watery blood makes the nerves shaky and invite disease. Rich, red blood makes the nerves strong, and banishes all nerve troubles. No medicine in the world can equal Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills as a blood builder and nerve tonic; every dose helps to make rich, red blood, and ever drop of this new blood feeds and» strengthens the nerves and banishes all nerve aches and pains. Among those who offer strong proof of this is Mr. John Mcâ€" Dermott, Bond Head, Ont., who says: "A few years ago While work- ing as a carpenter in Buffalo I got wet. I neglected to charge my clothes and next morning I awoke with cramps and pains throughout my entire body. I was unable to go to work so called in a doctor. I folâ€" lowed his treatment, but it did not help me. As I was unable to work I returned to my home at Bond Head. Here I consulted a doctor who said I was sullering from neurâ€" algia. but though he treated me for some time, he also failed to help me. I had often read of Dr. \Villiams’ Pink Pills, do decided to try them. I had not used more than three boxes before I felt they were helping me. From that on I gained day by day, and after I had used some ten boxes I had fully recovered my old- time strength and have since been able to work at my trade without any trouble. The pains and aches no longer torture me and I have gained in weight. I think Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills an invaluable medicine and shall always have a good word to say for them.” Secrecy is Preserved as to Move- ments of the Army. A minor proof of Japanese efficien- Cy may be seen in their methods of handling the correspondence of an army in the field. The authorities in Japan are not troubled by disgrun- tled privates writing home about ill- treatment and bad food, and unâ€" comfortable beds, and thus stirring up M.P.'s to descend upon the Adâ€" ministration and the War Office. The‘ Japanese soldier, so an American army officer reports, is allowed to send nothing home in the way of mail, but a. card. containing no inâ€" formation save that he is well. He is not allowed to tell where he is. In- stead of writing with a pen or pen- cil, he affixes his name to the card with a Stump. The cards are then taken back to Japan in large packâ€" ages, and put into the mail there, so that a card on reaching its des- tination cgntains no postmarks to inform the folks at home of the writer's whereabouts.

GHASE’S "NERVE F000 And Suffer the- Derangements Peculiar to Their Sex Find That Japanese cotton mill owners are enlarging their plants to meet the increased Chinese demand for Japan- ese cotton manufactures. Japan‘s foreign trade, for the eight months ended Aug. 31 last, amount- ed to $212,000,000, an increase of $9,500,000 over the same months of 1903. The export of gold has mod- erated considerably, but the import of silver increased from $1,130,000 to $0,585,000, by the requirements of the army in the field. During August the Japanese banks allowed from 5.5 to 5.9 per cent. interest on deposits, and charged from 7.9 to 9.1 per cent. interest. on loans. It is evident that bank- ing in Japan is profitable. Canada is pushing for sales in Japan. Consuls are being appointed with authority to pay for early stax tistical information. Sample rooms will be attached to the consulates. Japanese products will be exhibited in commercial museums in Canada. Wamen Who Are Weak Thus, the red, yellow and orange colors of the autumn Woods are any- thing except mere tricks of nature intended only to delight. As every- body knows, th'ese tints are especial- ly powerful for resisting the pas- sage of t'he sun’s rays. Furthermore, they have the property of changing light into heat. This heat, again spurs all the plant‘s cells to new activity, so the autumn foliage of the Woods is by no means a Sign of sleep. It. is then that the chemical laboratories are at their most fever- ish toil. What Is Going on in the Land of the Rising Sun. Japan has established her up to date system of education in Formosa with much success. The rice crop prospect in Japan is good.

The Japanese Government is in the market. for a. number of locomotives. To change the starchy matter into sweet liquid, another chemical proâ€" cess is used, and as it does not suoâ€" cced Well if the light is too strong, the plants manufacture a curious substance, which turns red the mo- ment it touches any of the many acids that exist in almost all leaves. The most prominent color 01’ an autumn scene is yellow. This yelâ€" loW is caused by waste matterâ€" stuff that is left behind as useless when the little pumps take in the maâ€" terial that makes Lhe green color; and crystals of lime that were left when the chemical factories of the plant turned the albumen into liquid so it could be pumped, also help to make the yellow. matter from the leaves which is known as chlorophylc, and which serves to givc the leaves their bright green colors. All the albumen and starches in the leaves are changed into liquid at this time and pumped busily into the storage houses unâ€" der the bark, where they are preâ€" served, safo and sound, till the folâ€" lowing spring, when they furnish food for new leaves and sprouts.
