Improved Corned Beetâ€"When boiling corned beef mix together one tablespoonful of malt vinegar, one teaspoonful of tarragon vinegar, one teaspoonful of relish, a little made mustard, :1 dessertspoonful of brown sugar,‘and a few allspice. When the sugar is melted stir all into the water in which the beef is to be boiled, add- ing at the same time an onion stuck with one clove. The meat should be served cold. â€"-until it is clear and thick. Sweeten to taste and flavor with lemon juice. Grease a pudding dish and spread the tapioca in layers alternately with sliced apples. Cover with a little milk in which some nutmeg has been shaken and bake in a slow oven. The white of an egg beaten up with su- gar and used in place of the milk is slightly more expensive, but is, of course, more nourishing and makes an attractive finish to the dish. The cores and skins of the apples can be used to make a little jelly.

Sysiem is a great time and money saver in the home; haphazard meth- ods are wasteful in every direction. To retain the ‘color and flavor of peas when boiling them, add a lettuce leaf and a tablespoonful of sugar. Ink stains on handkerchiefs, etc., may often be soaked out in milk, but the sooner they are dealt with the better. A little molasses, or sugar added to the griddle cake batter is a de- cided help in browning the cakes well. When there is a tendency for a pitcher to drip, try rubbing ever so little butter under the edge of the lip.

When Sir John Kennedy, of Mont- real, became Sir John Kennedy, Knight Bachelor, on New Year’s Day, all who knew this famous civil engin- eer, or knew his work, agreed that the royal honor has been most worth- ily bestowed. A pathetic interest, too, attaches to this knighthood, for Sir John is totally blind. He lost his eye- sight about nine years ago; but the affliction failed to rob him of his skill or of his spirit, and by wonder- ‘fully patient and courageous effort, he has accomplished much splendid twork as a consulting engineer since blindness overtook him. For about i thirty-three years he was chief engin- eer of the Montreal Harbor Commis- sion, and from an engineering point :of View he is the creator of the mod- fern Port of Montreal. rank, murry taste. no matter how fine the quality of the coffee.

BLIND KNEE” STILL WQRKING SIR JOHN KENNEDY, BUILDER 0F MONTREAL HARBOR. St. Lawrence River Made Navigable Born at Spencerville, Out, 1838, son of William Kennedy, a Scotsman from Dumfriesshire, he graduated at McGill University, Montreal, and filled a number of important profesâ€" sional positions before 1875, when he was appointed chief engineer of the Montreal Harbor Commision. When he took charge, the Port of Montreal was a small and poor affair, in com- parison with what it is to-day. It had an uncertain, shallow channel, poor wharves, and was without piers and elevators. Its ramshackle old wood- en sheds of one story, overrun with rats, were erected every spring and taken down every autumn to prevent their being smashed to pieces by the enormous cakes of ice brought down in the annual spring debacle. Disas- trous floods occurred from time to time. By the time John Kennedy ceas- ed to be chief engineer in 1907, and became consulting engineer for the Commission. he had worked a max-- Vaseline Camphorated AFTER A DAH OUT DOORS You can prevent chapped hands and lips by using It allays all irritations of the skin.

Sir John served on a Royal Commission in this connection, and, following his valuable report, the great guard pier was built and still water was secured for the harbor, and the picturesque but perilous ice shoves right up on the water front passed into history. After building the guard pier to protect the wharves, which he after- wards raised to high level from Mc- Gill Street to the Victoria Pier, Sir John built the King Edward, Jacques Cartier, and Alexandra Piers, all to a length of a thousand feet,â€"â€"a length which everybody considered quixotic at that time, but which is scarcely adequate to-day. The old wooden sheds gave way to a splendid array of gigantic permanent struc- tures of solid steel. Sir John was the first engineer to design and lay a doubleâ€"track rail- way in Canada. That was early in his career. He was at that time chief engineer of ’the Great Western Railway, and the road was laid be- tween Windsor and Glencoe in On- tario. Later he designed great dredges now working on the Nile, and he has evidences of his ability and industry in many parts of the world. Since he became blind in 1907, he has designed two great dredges, the largest in the world, now being used in dredging the St. Lawrence Ship Channel for the Deâ€" partment of Marine and Fisheries, and has also designed and practically completed one of the finest piers in the world, for the Department; of Railways and Canals, at Halifax, Britain's Strength Most Alarming Feature to Germany. England's war-machine is mount- ing up; every day that passes adds to its size. There you have the thing that frightens Germany most, writes M. Andre Chevrillon in the “Revue de Paris.” She is now at the height of her effort; she is still capable of hurting, but the wear and tear on her resources is now visible in everything. Her human fuel is running out at a terrifying rate, and its quality is going down; it is pos- sible to calculate the date when the actual shortage will begin. Mean- while, England’s strength is only in process of being got togetherâ€"silent- ly, without vain words; and this si- lence, as anyone who knows England can say, is far more disturbing than all the German tumult of hate. The fourth million of men is being prepared. Strange, ridiculous, “amaâ€" teurish”â€"in such. terms may the professionals of Germans have dis- missed the Derby scheme. What do they think to-day of its success? At the moment, when four-fifths of their own wounded have had to be sent back to the front, when the German people is talking of nothing else but peace, and believes that the war is nearing the end; what must their feelings be at the spectacle of these five hundred thousand new volun- teers raised in three days; of these crowds hesiegine‘ the recruiting of- ficesâ€"in the sixtcenth month of the war!~of masser of men still press- ing forward at two and three o’clock in the morning, to raise their hands, and, in batches of ten to a hundred, to take the oath that makes them sol- own wounde back to the people is ta peace, and nearing the feelings be to tak lion 5 millio WAR MACHINE IS GROWING.

It is supplied with elec- tricity from his famous improved I storage batteries. These batteries will give the lamp a greater power than that now boasted by any of the searchlights in use in the English and French armies. It is claimed that the lnew lamp is light enough to be car- [ried aloft in an airship. Bradford’s New Distinction. Bradford, the famous centre of Bri- tain’s woolen industry, is quite elated over the discovery that in Bolling Hall, the famous mansion on the out- lskirts of the city that was recently turned into a municipal museum of lantiquities, it possesses the ancestral home of Mrs. Woodrow Wilson. wife of the President of the United States. For Bradford is pretty certain that this will mean a rush of American visitors after the war is over, and trans-atlantic sightseers, as every- body knows, are a highly profitable commodity. ‘ The Modern Method is Most Sucâ€" cessful in Treating Indi- gestion The old-fashioned method of treat- in indigestion and stomach troubles are being discarded. The trouble with the old-fashioned method was that when the treatment was stopped the trouble returned in an aggravat- ed form. The modern method of cut- ing indigestion and other stomach troubles is to tone up the stomach to do nature’s work. Every step toward recovery is a step gained, not to be lost again. The recovery of the ap- petite, the disappearance of pain, the absence of gas,â€"â€"are all steps on the road to health that those who have tried the tonic treatment remember distinctly. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are a. blood-builder, tonic medicine, every constituent of which is helpful in building up the digestive organs, and is therefore the very best remedy for chronic cases of stomach trouble. Thousands of cases like the following prove how successful this treatment is:â€"Miss Amy Browning, Cornith, Ont., says:â€"“I have found such great benefit from Dr. Williams' Pink Pills that I would be ungrateful if I did not publicaly say a good word in their favor. I was badly run down and my stomach was in a very bad condition. All food distressed me, and left me disinclined to eat. I suffered from nausea and dizziness and frequent sick headache, and this was further aggravated by pains in the back and sides. I was in this condition for several years, and although I had got medicine from several doctors it did not help me. Then I heard of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills and began taking them. I am glad to say that they soon helped me, and now I am as well as ever; can eat all kinds of food with relish, and have not an ache or pain." You can get these Pills through any dealer in medicine or by mail, post paid, at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from The Dr. Williams Medi cine Co., Brockville, Ont. Will Likely Be Used on the Battle- field of Europe. Edison’s latest lamp is perhaps a bit too bulky for use in the ordinary home, but it is calculated to be very popular on the battlefield of Europe, for it confesses to harboring 3,000,000 candle power. Every known means has been em- ployed by the warring nations to turn night into day. Skyrockets, floating white lights, flares and immense searchlights have been used to guard against surprise. In many cases the searchlights used were so bulky that they had to be transported on heavy wagons, together with large gener- ators of electricity. The roads were not built to stand much heavy traffic and often the lights were lost when they became mired. USIT" A POWERFUL LAMP. imited
