Remove the pits andi put the fruit back in the liquid in which it was cooked, and if it has been much reduced in cooking. add hot water to make the original quantity. When it boils up again add the gelatine, remove at once from the fire and stir in the juice of one lemon and one cup sugar. Set the pan in a cold place, stirring the contents occasionally till it. begins to thicken. then pour into a wet mold. â€"lt may be put in a fancy mold so that when turned out. it can be surrounded with whipped cream, or it may be put in a border mold so whipped cream can be heaped in the centre.

Veal Short Cakesâ€"Try making a veal short cake for a change. Make a biscuit dough. divide it. into two parts and roll out half an inch thick. Spread a little butter on one part. place the other half on top and bake in a hot. oven. Cut cold boiled or baked veal in- to small pieces, add a little water and gravy if you can have it, and season to taste with salt and pepper. If too thin. it. may be thickened a. little with tlour and water. When the biscuit is 'done open it. and put the veal between the layers and on top. The top layer should be turned bottom side up.

To fill jelly glasses, try this plan: When the fruit juice is ready, take the kettle to the sink, skim thoroughly and strain into the glasses.

Restored to Streth by Dr. \Villiams’ Pink Pills. Bad blood is the cause of weak kid- neys. The impurities of the blood clog the kidneys so that they are unable to perform their work of separating the waste matter from the bloodâ€"the bad from good. The symptoms of diseased kidneys are numerous. The dull sunk- en eye, the coated tongue, the back- ache, weak shaky knees. sallow, swol- len face all show what is wrong. This disease must not be neglected. Every day delayed in finding a cure is a day nearer “Bright‘s disease"â€"that trouble is incurable. Do not waste time and money on a medicine which acts only on the kidneys. It may relieve. but it cannot cure you. The trouble to be permanently cured must be treated through the blood. Good blood makes healthy kidneys. Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills actually make new, rich bloodâ€"â€" that's why they cure when other medi- cines fail. Thousands owe good health â€"some life itselfâ€"to this medicine. Among them is Roy Davidson, who re- sides with his uncle. Mr. C. B. Mac- lean, near Brockville, Ont. Mr. Mac- lean says: “My nephew, Roy. had weak kidneys. About a year ago he took the measles and this left him in a bad state. His kidneys were so weak that they were incapable of performing their func- tions. lle suffered from backache, weakness and restlessness. For a I scarcely dared stir. but ventured to turn my head enough to look up. I could see where the elephant was by the movement in the grass, which he was beating in evident search of me. I lay as still as death; it was my only hope of not being discovered. Nearer and nearer came the thrashing, and presenth a long black trunk waved over the very spot where I was lying. Back and forth it went, to left and right; if it so much as grazed me my fate would have been sealed. But my shot had evidently blinded the beast and destroyed his power of scent. Suddenly I heard three rapid shots and a heavy fall. In great pain from my thigh. l managed to get on to my feet, and then shouted at the top of my lungs. Dago came rushing up in great joy, for he had thought I was killed. The dead elephant proved to be a monster. Round and round he walked, roaring in fury. The circle of his search grew larger. 1 dared to draw a long br'eath, but not to move. Farther and farther sounded the foothills. On came the beast at a greater speed than I had thought possible for an ole- pliant. His trunk was raised, so I could not hope to hit his forehead. When he was within three feet of me I fired full in his face, and sprang to one side. Like a flash of lightning he hit me with hB powerful trunk, and hurled me like a golf ball for about twelve yards. Fortunately, I struck in the long grass, and although my thigh was hurt severe- ly, I was not stunned. considerable powers tn 1he way of pro- viding convicts with spare lime occupa- tions, and with his coâ€"oporalion an edu- cated convict will sometimes indulge in such “literary pursuits" as inditing his autobiography, which many chaplains consider an excellent method of getting a prisoner to weigh his own character, smough they are often disappointed by the measure of hypocritical claptrap such autobiographies contain. I looked round, and saw a huge crea- ture at full charge through the long grass. head high, ears cocked, mil straight out, and uttering unearthly screams.

Grown-up persons often enjoy a re- turn to the sports of youth, but when the hider is a. man and the seeker an angry elephant, the pastime consists of some- thing more than fun. An account of such a game is contained in Mr. King- ston’s “First Voyage to Southern Seas," and the adventure is the author’s own.

At last The disconcerting incidents of clerical life, however, are not confined to ser- vices in church. A few years ago a clergyman of very solemn aspect and most serious intentions was ministering to one whom we will call Jones. who lay upon a sickbed seriously ill. The preacher repeated the reference in sonorous tones, and then looked at his Bible to read it out. The interest was explained; the words confronting him were, “\V‘hoso findeth a wife, findeth a good thing"â€"â€"a bold subject ’to choose for a first sermon! Now that book is still in print. THE ERROR STILL REMAINS, and if young clergyman would avoid raising false hopes they had better veri- fy their texts. The vicar came to the rescue by find- ing the place in a small Bible and hand- ing it to the curate. but by that time the poor man was reduced to such a state that he could not utter a word. 0! course, parsons suffer from nightmare; who wouldn't under the circumstances? There is a certain much advertised volume of excellent outline sermons which a certain young clergyman, dis- trustful of his own resources, determined to use. He gave out his text boldly, as it was printed, “Proverbs xviil., 22." A look of interest came over the faces of the young ladies of the congregation. The place was not. found; the lesson was from the “Lanlentatgons,” so short a book that it is very easy for a nervous man turning the pages rapidly to miss it altogether. He did miss illâ€"badlyâ€" and every fresh miss added to his con- sternation and t0 the pained intensity V! the silence. In a church not many miles from the one last mentioned a very nervous cur- ate stepped out to read a lesson. SOME DISCONCERTING INCIDENTS 0F CLERICAL LIFE. Every clergyman has experienced such episodes. Even the Archbishop of Can- fierbury himself has not escaped. Pro- bably, amid all the many incidents of his Grace’s life, he remembers one Sun- day, some years ago, when he was preaching at Twickenham. The future Archbishop had been a little premature, and it is quite safe to say that not one of the many portraits pub- lished of his Grace gives the slightest approximation of the expression his face wore. There is the possibility of going to the other extreme, and not being prepared A person’s nightmare (when he is un- fortunate enough to “suffer from one) generally takes the same formâ€"a crowd- ed church, an expectant congregation and the unhappy dreamer striving, in a perfect frenzy, to make sense of a hope- less rigmarole which ought to be his sermon but is not, says the London Daily Mail. In addition to the sermon, the Dean 01 Windsor (as he then was) had the first. lesson assigned to him. He stepped to the lectern to read it; A pained expresâ€" sion of suspense was visible throughout the congregation; something was wrong. Forgoflcn Sermons and Textsâ€"The Odd Questions They Are Asked.
