Perhaps the smallest farms in the i
world, each four by eight feet, have
been devised by Mrs. Henry Parsons
for the International Children's School
Farm league, and demonstrated In
New York. Each child becomes owner j

works, grows and harvests seven dif
ferent kinds of vegetables, and these
are borne by him in triumph to his
family. About each farm IsanlS-lnch 1

DAINTIES
FOR CHILDREN'S
TIES.
PAR-
One of the thlugs to guard against
in serving children is that they must
have no very rich food, or very lit
tle. Children are exceedingly fond of
ice cream.- and If not too rich or
served In too large quantities, It is not
harmful. , i
Sweet sandwiches, marguerites and
fruits of all kinds make oliough va
riety to please the small people, with
no after 111 effects.
Stewed prunes, mixed and chopped
w ith nuts and used fur a sandwich fill
ing, are most appetizing. Cut them in
different shapes, as often the appear
ance will deride the liking or not for
the food. Cut In crescents, hearts,
finger size or In circles: placed on a
pretty plute, they will appeal to the
taste of most any child.
Sponge cakes baked In gem pans j
and filled, when cold, with whipped
cream which has been sweetened and
I flavored, are always a delight to young
j or old.
A delicious dessert for children, as
well as a food of high value, are figs
and raisins stewed together. The
j fruits should be served cold with
brown bread and butter. If an extra
rich and elegant dish Is desired, add
i whipped cream.
I A marshtnallow dropped In the cup
of cocca takes the place 6t croam and
Is enjoyed by the little people.
j Meringue cases may be made
at home by piping whipped white of
egg and sugar into cup shapes and
baking. Serve these filled with. Ice
cream, garnished with candled cher
ries. Another nice dessert is chopped
marshmallows, a few nuts and sweet
ened whipped cream.
Lemon Jelly, or any genuine Jelly,
with marshmallowB stirred In It and
molded makes an attractive and ef
fective pudding.
A half of a peach or pear, with
whipped cream and a sprinkling of
chopped nuts, with nut bread sand
wiches, is a most satisfying dessert.
Hot scotch scones split and spread
with butter and orange marmalade
are delicious sandwiches which take
the place of cake.

WHAT TO EAT.
Let us see what we can do' with
these Inexpensive dishes to make an
attractive meal. We are paying now
for the cheapest cuts of meat what we
paid a few years ago for the best, and
it behooves use to use wisdom In buy
ing any of the high-priced cuts.
Savory Stew. Pieces of tough and
otherwise impossible meat may be
made tender and tasty by long, slow
cooking. The stone dish or casserole
has made a great difference In our
meat bills where it is commonly In
use. :. .
Cut a round steak into cubes and
roll each cube In seasoned flour. Put
into a frying pan a little fat and fry
a minced onion in It until a light yel
low. Lay In the meat, fry for five min
utes, cover with cold water and sim
mer on the back of the range for two
hours. Season with salt and pepper,
add a half teaspoonful of Worcester
shire ' sauce and a tablespoonful of
catsup. Serve hot with boiled rice or
maahed potato.
Bread and Cheese. This bread and
cheese will be followed by kisses it
Vbe v recipe Is carefully foflowed.
Grease a pudding dish and put into
It a layer of slices of stale bread; on
each slice place a thin slice of Ameri
can cheese. Beat one egg very light,
stir it Into a pint of milk, salt slightly
and pour the milk over the bread and
cheese. Set . into the oven until
browned lightly, and serve with a ,
dash of cayenne. Serve hot This is
a nice dish for supper.
Coffee tapioca pudding is, a simple
dessert Pour over a cup of softened
tapioca a pint of -left-over coffee.
Cook until clear and serve hot with
sugar and cream.

SOME POTATO DI8HE3.
A potato salad that Is not very
common Is the following: Dice six
cold boiled potatoes, add the chopped
whites of three hard cooked eggs: rub
the volks of the eers smooth with a
dash or two of mustard, and add a cup
of sour cream. Season with salt and
cayenne and pour the dressing over
the potatoes. Let the potatoes stand
In the dressing some time before serv
ing. .
Sweet Potato Pudding. This is a
West Indian recipe and makes a nice
hot luncheon dish. Orate peeled sweet
potatoes to the amount of two cups.
add a cup of ripe bananas mashed, a
cup of brown sugar, three cups of wa -

Savory Potatoes. Cut two small
pieces of bacon Into- small pieces, and
place them In the bottom of a baking
dlt-h; slice three potatoes and half an
cnlon over the bacon. Add two more
pepper and salt, then slice In two more
slices of bacon, cut fine, season with
potatoes; add another slice of bacon,
season again and cover with milk.

NUTS IN FOOD COMBINATIONS.
Nuts contain so much nutrition that
they should be used more generally
as a food. Those who object to the
use of meat may find a good substi
tute in nuts.
Savory Nut Loaf. Any nut loaf mix
ture may be served In the form of
croquettes with peas or a tomato
sauce, . making a satisfying luncheon
dish. Take a cup of chopped nut
meats, walnut or hickory, add tour
cupfuls of breadcrumbs, a chopped
bard cooked egg, a well beaten egg, a
bait teaspoonful of salt a halt tea
spoonful of pulverized sage, a medium
sized onion, grated, and sufficient milk
or water to moisten . the ' mixture.
Mix all together and roll in the form
of a loaf, bake In a small bread pan
well buttered. Bake about half an
hour.-.
Almond Cookies. Mix a pound of
ground, blanched almonds with a
pound of sugar, add a tablespoonful of
powdered lnnamon, a tablespoonful
of powdered cloves, five cents worth
of anise seed, and the yolks of four
eggs well beaten, flour to make a stiff
dough, adding the, well beaten whites
of the eggs before the flour. Roll out
and cut with fancy cutters. Bake In
a moderate oven.
Peanuta With Rice. Cook a cupful
of rice until tender; while hot stir in
a cup of peanut butter, stirring until
well mixed. Then add a half cup of
milk, a cup of cracker crumbs, leaving
out enough to- spread over the loaf,
and two well beaten eggs. Make into
a loaf, roll In crumbs and bake in a
moderate oven.

LESSON FOR NOVEMBER 24
THE TRANSFIGURATION.
LESSON TEXT-Mnrk 9:1-11
GULDEN TEXT "A voles cam. out of
the cloud, saying, This Is my neioved Son;
hear ye Him." Luke .:3S It V.
1. On the Mountain, vv. 2 . Peter's
confession Is connected closely with
the lesson for today. There is no reo
ord of the intervening "six days." We
are left to surmise what of fear and
perplexity filled the mlndu of the djs-
clples after listening to the words or
J Jesus found In Mark 8:34 aad
These words must ceitalnly have
filled them with doubt aud dismay.
As if to meet this condition of mind
Jesus takes Peter, James and John,
those three partners In business, who
were also present in the home of
Jairus, and later went with blm into
the gardeu, and withdrew to a nioun-
: tain, probably Mt. Ileruion. s Here he
was transformed, i.e., metamorphosed,
completely changed In ' appearance:
read curefully the, parallel accounts.
Paul's Inspired Woras.
Joined with Jesus there stood
Moses the law-giver and Elijah the
great rolurm prophet. What a com
mentary as to the Interest of heaven
in a dying Messiah und in the glory
of that ueath.
We need to read Pauls inspired
words (Phil. 2:6,7) In this connec
tion. He who thought it not a prize
to be grasped after to be equal with
Uod, yet took upon himself the form
of a Bluve und was made in the habit
or fashion of a man. Upon the vnoun-

e. g., showed forth, the glorious ap
pearance of the Son of God. The dis
ciples there caught a faint glimpse of
that glory which he had with the
Father before the world was (John
17:6). But the work of redumption
: Una tint vat . nonnm 111 ttthpil. Mml an i
' once mnr he turns hack unon that
glory. Small wonder, though, that as
they beheld these heavenly visitors ,
Peter should exclslm: "Rabbi, It la'
good for us to be here; let us make ,
three tahernnrlea (hooths). one for
th ,nr m.. fnr v.u.
Juh." Notice, however, that Peter
spake "for he wist not what to say"
(v. 6). Mark alone records these
words, and Mark largely received bis
gospel from Peter." Peter should have
kept still. Some revelations are too
sacred for speech. Paul had such a
one. But while the mount of vision is
glorious, Jesus knew the need of crys
talizing that vision in the Uvea of
those in the valley below. There was
work yet to be done (vv. 14, 15). Luke
tells us that the transfiguration came
"as he was praying." So even yet
there is no greater transfiguring and
transforming power . than prayer.
Moses and Elijah appeared "in glory,"
whereas Matthew "tells us that "his
face did shine as the sun" (17:2).
This was not a reflected glory, but
the outshining from within.
Three Heavenly Voices Heard.
We have only to read 2 Peter, 1:16
18 to answer any question as to this
being a vision in the modern accept
ance of that term. We are also told
that the word "vision" found in verse
! 9 of the lesson can be translated,
i "things seen." Indeed the disciples
j were "fully awake" (Luke 9:32 R. V.).
The question as to how the disciples
could recognize Moses and Elijah,
whom they had never seen, is not at
; all difficult for the believer. They ap
, peared "in glory" and when the glory
I was withdrawn they saw "no man
save Jesus.
' This also serves to help answer the
question, "Shall we recognize in glory
those whom we have lost awhile?"
Three heavenly voices were beard.
Jesus' voice in prayer, his compan
ions conversing of that great event
vet to be accomplished (Luke 9:31)
and the voice of God, "This is my be
loved (only begotten) Son; hear him."
What matters the opinions of earth's
greatest lawyers and prophets, or the
suggestions of our dearest friends,
"Hear him." That is the crux of the
heavenly message: "Hear him," as
teacher, observe him as an example,
accept him as Saviour and obey him
as Lord and Master.
Fear fell upon them and they fell
upon, their faces In humiliation, but
with tender compassion Jesus . said
"arise and be not afraid." It almost
seems like a rebuke to Peter, who had
so freely protested against the sugges
tion of the manner of his death.
Jesus' transfiguration and the words
of his companion, as well ai the com
mand of the Father, were a vindica
tion of hia authority and a revelation
In advance of the Bupreme wonder of
the cross. Arising they "saw no man
save Jesus." It is far better to "see
him" than to see, hold converse with,
or have communion with, the great
est of earth, past or present :
I. The descent v. 9:13. As they
descended from the mountain Jesus
charged them to tell no man.' Very
f liferent from our modern method.
But the need Is clearly shown aa we
read Peter's woN (I Peter. 1:16-21).
Peter places great emphasis upon the
importance of this experience, declar
ing himself aa an eyewitness of his
"majesty" as well aa the "honor and
glory." Peter and the others could
not talk Intelligently of this experi
ence until after Christ's work was
"finished" upon Calvary, vindicated at
the tomb and glorified on the day of
Pentecost HeVe they "kept that
saying with themselves," obeying hia
Injunction of silence. On the return
they caught some word about his ris
ing from the dead, hence the ques
tion about the return of Elijah. Jesus
tells them that Elijah had returned
n the person of John the Baptist and

A FENALTY OF AGE
The tendency of advancing years to
restrict activity and exercise is re '
sponsible for the constipated condition
of most elderly people. The wear of
years Impairs the action of the bow
els and the digestive organs are more
sensitive to the demands upon thorn
and rebel more quickly. Cathartics
and purgatives are violent and drag- -tlo
in their action and should not be
used to correct constipation. A mild,
yet positively effective remedy, and
one that is recommended by physi
cians as well as by thousands who
have used it, is the compound of sim
ple laxative herbs with pepsin pre
scribed by Dr. W. B. Caldwell over
thirty years ago and now sold by drug
gists everywhere under the name of
Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. . Dr.
Caldwell wants everyone troubled with
constipation to try Syrup Pepsin and
will send a trial bottle, free of charge,
to all who write for It- Address Dr.
