To Keep you in Voice
Every singer and public speaker knows the necessity for keeping the voice clear and resonant. It is not necessary for this pur pose to use lozenges and pastilles containing drugs, which must be used with caution, and which are often objectionable in their
taste and odour. - »
The use of black currant juice is one of the good old-fashioned topics for the voice. The 'Allenburys Glycerine and Black Currant Pastille is the modem way of using this invaluabie and time-honoured remedy. These pastilles have a delicious flavour and may be taken freely without causing any barmful effect.

FISH IN THE MENU,
Fish day varies in different bouse- holds from a bi-weekly to a bi monthly occurrence. But be that
as it may, most of us like fish-at least certain kinds of fish-and wel- como the change from the more re- gular meat diet. e
The choice of fish must be re- gulated by the season, though there are many kinds which are good all the year round.
The method of broiling fish is as follows: clean and bone the fish, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and il the fish is dry, spread with a little batter. Place in greased wire broiler on the rack as near the flame as possible. Broil the flesh side first. As soon as it is crisp and delicately browned, lower the flame and cook until the flesh is white and firm. Then turn on the skin side and cook until brown and crisp. Loosen the fish from both sides of the broiler and place on a hot platter, flush side Sprinkle with parsley, butter up. and garnish with parsley and lemon "slices.

Put in the kettle about a quart of a well-water, two tablespoons of vinegar,
oue-fourth teaspoon" whole pepper.. and a little diced onion, celery and carrot, and let boil until the water ia well favoured. Put in the fish. and let simmer until the flesh is firm and leaves the bones. Then pick in small chunks. Take one cup white sauce and add the juice from one cup of tomatoes, strained, Cook until smooth. Place the fish in buttered ramekins or in a baking dish, cover with the sauce, adding salt and pepper to taste. Then cover with cracker crumbs mixed with butter, and strew grated cheeso ever the top. Bake about twenty 'minutes until brown. If you use ramekins, place them in a pan of hot water in the oven.
You have probably never tried baking halibut in tomato sauce. It is delicious, and a change which your family will enjoy. Prepare ne follows:-Clean the fish and let stand in salt, for several hours.

BEAUTY.
It's so easy to fall into bed at night without bothering to do such troublesome things as cleansing your skin or patting in your skiä food. And it's so easy, when you neglect these duties, to have a dry. parched, discolored skin disfigured by blackcheada!
So you see you have to choose be- tween those few minutes of extra sleep every night and a firm smooth skin.
It doesn't take much longer to attend to your complexion than it does to wash your hands and clean your teeth and no one, surely, would retire without performing those rites! Just consider the 'dam- age that can be done your skin by leaving on coumetics and the accum.. ulation of the dust overnight It certainly is worth your effort to clean the face well, dab on your astringent to close the pores, and then to take five minutes or more to pat into the skin & nourishing
cream.
The method of cleansing your skin. depends, as I have said countless times before, on your particular type of skin. If your skin is very oily, soap and water will prove. beneficial at least every other night but if it is dry and sensitive, stick to creams for cleansing except for na occasional soap and water bath.
These Children Of Ours.
"CLOTHES FOR YOUR CHILD.
Good taste in children's clothing has not had enough attention from the average "mother. It is much broader and more inclusive than neatness, cleanliness and prettiness- It is not only important in the everyday life of the child, but it is also desirable to develop it for man- hood and womanhood, and training along this line should begin early,
There are so many ways in which the clothing of the well-dressed child must be suitable. First, it must be agreeable to, and in accord with his activities and proper deve- lopment light in weight, cool in summer, warma in winter, simple in design, comfortable, allowing free- dom of movement. For a long time children were dressed exactly like their elders, in the same rich, heavy materials and restricting styles. It was not until after the French Re volution that clothing suitable for childhood was first made..
Now it is recognized that there are stages in childhood. The boy must not be kept in infant styles when he is big enough for boys' clothes and hair cuts... When little girls grow tall, even if they are. only nine or ten, the loose, beltless dress that has fullness around the neek or yoke must either be modi- fed to bave a waist line or be given up for a more becoming style. Attractive clothes will do much to offset the awkwardness that accom- panies the rapid growth of the adolescent period. To be appro priate" and in good taste for the adolescens girl or boy, clothing must be of suitable materials, youth. ful in style and becoming in line and colour.
POINTS TO REMEMBER.
WHAT IS NOW CORRECT.
Bolts of all kinds are worn. Some are in solt leather, some in fur, a boirt an inch-and-a-half deep; others in the same material as the dress or coat.
colours are used for sports en- Small figured woollens in all sembles, "and the jerseys are as close- ly figured as the skits and coats, but in a different pattern.
Nothing is more satisfactory for a sporta ensemble that is expected to do long service than one in beige. and brown or beige and white, with a short sao coat and straight mili- tary collar tied into a little bow and ends in front. The skirts are long enough to cover the knees, and all are flared. Bome have it all round, some only in front.
The bodices are straight, easy fitting, with a high, that is to say," normally placed waist line indicat- ed by a belt, a line of trimming, or little snikh which ties in front or at the back.

NOVEL LAMP:
A white crystal bowl or jar can be turned into a novel lamp by the addition of two or three Venetian glass sea beasts. These octopods and seahorses, prawns, wide-mouth- ed dolphins, and brilliantly colour. ed ash are of conventional design. Seen through the curved sides of a water-filled bowl they are most amusing and quaint shade of pleated paper or plain parchment is the best choice.
It is the fashion to sneer at the angler's trophies of stuffed pike and perch, trout and roach, yet even these have a role to play; in the popular country cottage schemes of decoration they are by no means out of place.
TORCH PENCILS.
A silver pencil with an electric: batters in its shaft that enables the. fortunate owner to write in the dark is a new invention. The tiny battery is of the cheap kind used. which has room for several lead for small torches, and the pencil, reals, takes up very little room in a pocket or bag...
