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 tonics for the voice. The "Allenburys' Glycerine" and Black Qurrant Pastille is the modem way cị oxing, this invaluable and time-honoured remedy. These paseilles have a delicious flavour and may be taken freely without: causing any harmful effect.

THE WOMAN'S CORNER

TASTY FISH.

Have you ever tried Finnan had- dock with tomatoes? Tomatoes are so good for you, you know, teem ing with vitamins and iron, and good for the complexion. And Finnan haddock is so cheap. All that should be enough to make any woman eager to try the combina- tion of Finnan haddock and toma- toes. Break some cooked haddock ipto small pieces, moisten with white sauce, and season with salt and pepper, going carefully with the salt, becatise the häddock may be salty. Pile on slices of dry

toast, cover with slices of skinned tomatoes, and bake in a moderate oven for ten minutes. Bacon esa be served with it if liked, and it is a good way of using up stale bread, left-over haddock and white So, altogether, it is well worth a trial, don't you think?

THESE CHILDREN OF OURS.

THE NEGLECTED BABY,

"The nine months before a baby is born is the most neglected period of his existence," a pro- minent doctor recently said.. The expectant mother is likely to leave Her diet largely to chance or to the whims of appetite, although she may be most careful of her food during the nursing period.

She fails to consider that the wrong diet for an expectant mother may be disastrous. "It is not safe for the mother merely to eat "what she is accustomed to " or oven "plenty of good, food. The pregnant as well as nourishing the nursing mother should find out from a physician how much of cer- tain essential foods must be eaten. daily

DANDRUFF DANGER.

Dandruff is the precursor of permanent baldness. It might even be said that nine cut of ten, per- sons who seek treatment for bald ness, suffer, or at sometime have suffered, from what they call dandruff Dandruff is a danger signal that all too few of us beed. It is the by-product of an infec tion caused by the growth of micro- organisms or parasites. It is the most frequent accompaniment of

inflammation of the scalp known to the dermatologist as seborrheic eczema or seborrheic der- matitis. The condition leads, if neglected, to other complications, both of the scalp and the skin of the rest of the body, affecting the face, cars, armpits and front of the chest particularly.

It should be brought to the at- 'tention of home candy-makers that there are many other innovations ia the line of sweets which they can make in just as short a time, and with just as little effort as it takes to produce a dish of the. familiar brown or golden fudge.

Candy recipes should be divided into two classes; the kind that can be "got together on the spur of the moment to serve guests al- ready arrived, and the kind which, because of the time and attention required, should be prepared in advance.

Into this first class fall caramela, fudges, hard candies, pentiche, sea foam, and stuffed dates or other dried fruits. Turkish candy, mint paste, fondant, orange or grape fruit sticks, chocolate cream drops candied cherries, chocolate dipped cherries, and divinity candy re quire more time and care and should receive the candymaker's undivided attention.
