A New Rule For Raspberry Shortcakeâ€"The ordinary raspberry Shortcake is inferior to strawberry Shortcake principally because raspi *bei'ries do not give enough juice, even if a great many are used. To overcome this difficulty, make the Shortcake in the usual way, and for the ï¬lling use a box of rasp- berries and a box of currants. Put the currants through a sieve with a cup of sugar, and add the juice thus obtained to the raspberries, and. another cup of sugar, mashing the berries very slightly. The ï¬ll- ing may he used either plain or With a little whipped cream added; cover the top of the cake with whipped cream decorated with rasp- berries. The flavor of the raspber- ries is so much stronger than that of the currents that you do not taste the latter at all.

Arthur Meighen, the new Solici- tor-General, was one of the few earnest young men on the Governâ€" ment side Who had va,‘-ch'avnce to dis- tinguish themselves at the 13.91; strenuous Patlizmhentarry ~ session. Born in 1876, the new Solicitor- Generoa‘l is only 37 years old. In appearance he looks almost absurd.- Iy young when pitting ' his legal knowledge and p0wer of argument- against the veterans of Parliament. But he has a, power of olear think- ing and forceful expression that wine him respect and attention, and it must. be confessed that in the closure debate his knowledge of the subject, hits citations of precedents and of English Parliamentary pracâ€" tice, and his general a,rra.y of. {80155 was very convincing. each side would be piled high with volumes of authorities, each one with paper marks inserted. When the time came to read a quotation, the legal-minded young member for Portage la. Prairie put his ï¬nger on the plaoe at. once. It reminded one of the power and dexterity an or- gan player develops in handling his notes and stops. What would in other bands inevitably prove a, dry, laborious speech is, in, the hands of Arthur Meighen, a quiok-ï¬recl, per- sistent, keenly-«aimed. and precisely quoted argument, delivered with spirit and with life. And his argu- ments are not sophistical. He gets at the fleets and uses them with great effect. In his paesages with the wily Dr. Pugsley and other vet- erans of debate, Arthur Meighen didn’t come off second best. The young‘lawyer has a, brilliant way of going indignantly at the specious argument and boring .9. hole through it with the foreï¬nger of one hand. the other keeping the [place in his book of reference the meanwhile. His voice is a, little harsh and argumentative in tone rather than musical or orraitorieal, but for logical uses of legal argu- ment across the floor of the House it is a. very suitable and effective organ, the words having clear-mess despite their swift articulation, and the voice itself a, carrying power very satisfactory to those who, sitâ€" t-ing at a, distance, wish neverthe- less to hear. ‘ Mr. Meighen is a, barrister, and his legal training has developed a naturally keen, analytical mind. He reads, him/01y and precedent with a, marvellous industry, retaivn~ ing the poinis he needs in debate and marshalling them without hesiâ€" tation or the slightest delay. In the House sometimes his desk, his seat,‘ and the desk of his neighbors. pp Arthur Meighen was born in 1876 in Perth County, Ontario. He grvaduazbed from Toronto University in 1896.

MR. ARTHUR MEIGHEN. Mr. Arthur Meighen. The oldest legends of antiquity tell us what a mysterious power the men oi those days sometimes attributed to music. The songs of Orpheus and the sound of his lyre even, it is said, attracted wild beasts, which came crawling up to listen at his feet, vanquished. The allâ€"powerful beauty of the song of this .ero even softened the hearts of the pitiless divinities of Hades. M. Nitello, in an article on this subject published in Medicina, reâ€" calls how, to the sound of Am- phion’s lyre, . the stones became animated and came to place them- selves one upon another“ to build the City of Thebes.

The Greeks claimed that Emula- pius was a, son of. Apollo. Though it is no longer possible to believe, in accordance with this legend; that Medicine is the daughter of Music, at least it is permissible to think, says M. Nitello, that they are two sisters, the elder of which sometimes gives aid to the other. Reacts on Lunacy. But to leave this distant period and come down to Celsi, it is seen that this doctor recognizes already the action of music on the minds of lunatic/s. Then this same art is in- dicated by various authors as a remedy for the most diverse ail- ments. Gelien recommends it for snake bites; Athenea, Theo‘phr‘as- tus and Aulu Gele believe in its happy influence on sciatica. and gout; Theocrituvs and Thales see in it a, means of contending against pest. Doctors Recognize the Action of Harmonies on Minds of Maniacs. SCIENTISTS CANNOT DENY ITS INFLUENCE. It is especially in the treatment of nervous diseases that music has given'the best results. Cases of hysteria and epilepsy seem some- times to have been cured by 0011â€" ce’rbs. The attack, treated at the start, ceased and subsequently oc- curred more rarely and ended by not appearing _amy more.

Esquire] organized concerts at Chareadaon, but he was not very well satisï¬ed with the results obtained. In 1840 Leuret, at Bieetre, renewed the same attempt, but also without much success. Since rhhis period at- tempts have often been made to di- vert madmen in this way. It would appear‘thlat in the treatment of madness music has not given the good results expected. But if the experiment has not been a. sueoess it may be because music is felt in a different manner by every human being and the more so must that be the ease with those who are dis- eased.

If you watch people walk you will note that nearly all of them move their arms. If they walk slowly the movement of their arms is scarcely perceptible; if they walk rapidly their arms generally swing vigorously. ‘ Most people believe this swinging of the arms as they walk is merely a. natural swaying- motion, caused by the movement of the body juet as the tassel of an umbrella. will swing when one is walking with it, but this is by no means the reason. The swinging of the arms is natural enough, but the nature of it dates away back to those unknown days when men was a, quadruped.
