MAKING THINGS STICK. Besides being of invaluable aid in the medicine chest or cabinet, adhesive tape may be used as first aid in in- numerable cases of household emer- gency. It may be made so useful that the housewife should never be with- out it. To make carmel ice cream, put one quart of milk in a double boiler and when hot add one tablespoonful of cornstarch which has been moistened with milk, yolks of four beaten eggs, and one-half cup of sugar. Scorch one cup of maple molasses or one-half pound of maple sugar. Add a little water to it, then add to the castard. When cool, add ofie pint of cream and freeze. For chocolate sauce to be served with ice cream, put one pound of light brown sugar into a saucepan with one quarter pint of milk, two ounces of chocolate, grated, and one ounce of butter. Boil together until it forms a soft ball when put in cold water. Take from the stove and flavor with Vanilla. All of the second-hand stores of our town have been ransacked in search of the old~fashioned dining:- room tables with drop-leaves at the side, and for kitchen chairs of at- tractive design. These are selected in as quaint a pattern as possible, and are of soft wood that has been painted, instead of varnished. Both the table and chairs are well rubbed with sandpaper, until every sign of the paint or varnish has been removed. They are then painted with three coats of paint. Some use ivory for this, while some prefer white, but I think the most attractive ones I have seen are of a soft gray color. After the paint is applied, a thor- ough coating of enamel of the same color is put on. Then they are de- corated with some design, usually a conventional pattern, put on with enamel. If the furniture is ivory,“ canary yellow and black may be used for the design; while there are no colors that look so well on gray as some of the soft pastel shadesf Old blue may predominate. The very beauty and atttigtiveness of such a set as the one I have de- scribed would be reason enough for any bride to choose it for the main part of her dining-room furniture; but the small cost is,an added virtue, and has an added appeal to most brides who prefer to start their mar- ried life, living in a frugal way, that it may be easier for the couple to “get a start.”â€"-N. Portrey. +or THE SUMMER BRIDE’S KITCHEN ‘ FAD. Do the brides of your neighborhood have the various fads that change and vary as much as the new styles and fashions? They do in our section; and a fad that is very popular with them here at present is the enameled drop-leaf dining-tables. And it is not only brides who are indulging in this fad, either. Many women who only have small families are investing a few cents and a little time in these attractive accessories.

"They say people with opposite char- acteristics make the happiest mar- riages.” Use adhesive tape to cover the open- ing in the bottom of salt or pepper shaker instead of cork, which is often hard to remove and often slips inside When small cuts or breaks appear in the table oilcloth they may be mend- ed by applying a strip of adhesive tape to the underside. When paring any vegetable, protect the thumb and forefinger adhesive tape. When ripping seams with a knife or razor blade, wrap the blade with ad- hesive tape to within an inch of the and to prevent injury to the fingers and fabric. In case a break comes in your rub- ber gloves apply a patch of adhesive tape to the undefside of the cut or break. It may be used in the same manner to mend kid gloves, using a bit of dye or ink to stain the patch to match the gloves. china it may be applied to the out- side to hold the parts in place until they become thoroughly dry. When the glass in the oven door accidentally gets broken a very satis- factory temporary repair may be effected by applying adhesive tape to each side of the break. ' ' If the glass top of the percolator seems to suddenly leap from its proper position and cleaves asunder upon the floor it may be mended with adhesive tape until another may be purchased. 4374.

But many and varied as her health troubles are, the cause is simple and relief at hand. When well, it is the woman’s good blood that keeps her well; when ill she must make her blood rich to renew her health. The nursing mother more than any other woman in the world needs rich blood and plenty of it. There is one way to get this blood so necessary to perfect health, and that is through the use of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. Mrs. W. 'I‘. Riley, RR. No. 1, Apple Hill, Ont., has proved the great value of Dr. Wildiams’ Pink Pills to mothers, and tells her story as fol- lows:â€""Two years ago. after the birth of my boy, I became very weak and run down. Gradually I lost weight and energy until I was unable to do my housework. I could not sleep, my nerves would twitch and jump so that I arose in the morn-Eng with heavy aching limbs and head. Indigestion helped to make the misery worse, and my heart would palpitate terribly. I doctored steadily for a year without getting better, but just dragged along feeling that I would never be well again. But one lucky day, on the ad- vice of a friend, I began treatment with Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. I have taken only six boxes, but I Wish you could see the difference. I am now able to do my work, go about and enjoy myself.

Her own health trials and her children’s welfare exact heavy tolls, while hurried meals, broken rest and much Indoor living tend to weaken her constitution.

Mr. Pilon. the guide, conducts parties for duck shooting also, in season, from Ste. Annes.
