HINTS FOR THE HOME.
HINTS FOR THE HOME. IF you would get rid of rheumatism do that which will cause free perspiration without sub- sequent chilling. If you would get rid of gout, make your liver as active as possible. TO KEEP IVORY WHITE. Ivory knife handles should never be placed in water, for it discolours them; but even with the .greatest care ivory will get yellow with use. To resco"! its whiteness as much as possible, make a cream-like paste with powdered whitening and spirits of wine. Rub this well on the handles and they will be cleaned and polished in the process. A SUBSTITUTE FOR INTOXICANTS. A physician of eminence has prescribed the following: Tincture of capsicums, 3dr.; aromatic spirit of ammonia, loz.; tincture of cinchona, loz. compound tincture of cardamons, 6dr.; water to make 8oz. To be mixed. One table- spoonful to be given with the same quantity of water every two hours, or when the drink crav- ing occurs. BREATHING AND BEAUTY. Notf woman can have bright eyes, a beautiful ■skin, or an elastic step if she does not supply her lungs with oxygen. She can do this by deep breathing. The indolent woman regains her lost energy when she learns how to breathe correctly. The sallow girl, with the dark circles under her eyes, discovers that with correct breathing the congested veins will yield to the stimulated cir- culation. the dark rings disappear, and the lustre reappears in the eyes. Deep breathing will help to make curves where there are angles, and it is a potent factor in th'3 cure of emaciation, be- cause it supplies oxygon to the wasted tissues, and sets the machinery of the vital organs going. WALNUT HAIR STAIN. Fill a large jar rather loosely with finely- chopped husks. Pour in methylated spirit to cover the husks. Allow to remain one week, closely stoppered or corked. Now pour off the liquid. Turn out the husks. Squeeze from them all the liquid obtainable. Mix the liquids, and keep in a well-corked bottle. Next, boil the husks in sufficient water, it should just cover them. Strain. Add the -.vater to the spirit. This e 8 is a fairly good stain. It may be made much stronger in the following way: After boiling for naif-au-hour, strain, and boil down until it be- comes thickish. Then mix with the spirit pre- parations. Walnut stain is quite useless unless the hair has been previously freed from all .grease. PARSLEY AND ITS USES. Fresh parsley can never be improved on for imparting a delicate flavour to all kinds of savoury dishes, but in winter it is often difficult "to procure it, and the careful housewife never fails while parsley is plentiful to lay by a store for use later in the year. It must be freshly picked, and should be immersed for a few minutes in boil in :r water, then strained and placed on a lar e dish in a moderately cool oven. After it is q.iite dry it should be packed in air-tight jars and tins, and put away in the store cupboard till the winter. When required for flavouring, if it is soaked for a few moments in tepid water it will freshen it considerably. As a seasoning for soups and stews, dried parsley is without a rival, while finely chopped it can bo used for garnish- in sr: cold joints and poultry, fricassees, and fried fish. The reen juice pressed from fresh parsley is invaluable as an innocuous colouring matter Ijr savoury sauces, soups, or jellies. "DON'TS" FOR HOUSEWIVES. The following don'ts" have been compiled for the woman who uses a gas stove: Don't keep any kettle or cooking utensils over a one-jet simmering flame in exactly the same spot too long. The simmerinr flame is like the poldsmith's flame, boring, boring into the pots and vessels. Don't forget, if you need hot water for sudden sickness in the night. that four quarts of water over as rrmny burners will heat enough faster than four quarts in one vessel to more than make up for the extra flames. Don't forget, if you come across triangular- j shaped saucepans, to buy them, as several can be placed over one ring and kept boiling without any waste of sras. Don't forset it saves gas if when a roast of any kind is prepared for dinner it is arranged to have most of the other food cooked in the oven. Have baked macaroni, or cauliflower au crfitin, instead of a boiled vegetable. A baked pudding instead of a boiled one will save gas on these days.

"IAN MACLAREN" ON WAR, POLITICS,…
"IAN MACLAREN" ON WAR, POLITICS, AND RELIGION. The fiercer centuries," said Dr Watson, preaching at Liverpool last Sunday on The sin of lukewarmness," The fiercer centuries had brutal wars enough-wars without mercy, without Geneva Conventions,—but was not the war, time and again, waged with pas- sionate enthusiasm over a qtiestion-of faith ? Not in the spirit of our Lord,' you say. No. Bigoted Bloodshed.' Yes; but still, in a blind, misguided way, a. proof of religious zeal. We have wars to-day, and rumours of wars but which of the nations would spend a sixpence or give one common soldier's blood in defence of a creed ? No; wars to-day are waged for silver and gold, and if, as God forbid, a great war should shortly be brought about, it will be arranged by certain of the larger Powers purely in the interests of trade. We are ready to go to war over markets, not creeds not for religious fervour, but for profit. Almost every part of our modern life, the preacher maintained, was touched with this defect. In politics also," Dr Watson continued, we have been lukewarm the party cries in vogue at election time being looked upon, behind the scenes, as merely so many stage- weapons, to be thrown aside when they have played their part and the representatives of the people have duly secured their seats. In religious circles, how many, I ask you, know just what they believe ? They have a creed, many of them. inherited, perhaps, from their father, or picked up from a favourite preacher but how much do they know about this creed they hold ? If we would only give our hearts and minds to these matters We are not frozen through and through it is merely that the boiling-point has altered. Once the boiling-point was faith to-day the boiling- point is money. Yet still icebergs melt in the Gulf Stream. The most impassive man can be touched and roused. If we meet a man with a genial manner, yet not unctuous; absolutely in earnest, yet without gush fired with enthusiasm, yet no fanatic; why are we carried away ? We forget our aloof- ness, our tepid codes of good form.' No- thing can be achieved in any age without thoroughness and surely our faith, above all things, must be thorough, must be real."
NORTH WALES LICENSING SESSION.
NORTH WALES LICENSING SESSION. It was reported by the police on Monday that drunkenness was decreasing in the Conway and Llandudno districts, the number of prosecutions during the year being 202. 0 An Inducement for Convalescents to Drink. Superintendent Rees said that he had been directed by the Chief Constable of Carnarvon- shire to inform the Bench that he had been approached on behalf of the Committee of the Birmingham Hospital Saturday Fund with a view of ascertaining to what extent the assistance of licensed persons in the neigh- bourhood of the two convalescent homes belonging to the Committee at Llanrhos could be obtained in preventing the inmates of the homes from frequenting public-houses or obtaining drink from them. One of the conditions under which the homes are conducted is that the inmates must keep out of public-houses. Evil consequences arose, the Committee complained,from this condition not being observed. In accordance with instructions he (Superintendent Rees) com- municated with the licensees concerned, some of whom expressed their willingness to assist in the direction required, while others declined to do so. The Chairman asked if any inducement to the inmates at the convalescent homes to obtain drink was offered by licensees. Superintendent Rees: In one case there was. It was in the nature of a tariff, sent out from the hotel to the patients in the homes. The superintendent handed a copy of the "tariff" to the Chairman, who said it referred to f Fine Burton ale and mentioned the price. Impending Reduction at Bethesda. The licensing justices at Bangor have given twelve months' notice that they will require the number of licences at Bethesda to be reduced, and have suggested that two of the largest owners should do away with one each next year. Holywell Report. At Holywell there was reported a slight increase in the number of convictions for drunkenness during the year.
