r: liiiuas can i.e tdan'ed And so in
.: -her f-w weeks or nion'hs we may
look for another oig gift from Mr
Rockefeller, to be followed by a still
larger one from the ' Laird of Skibo."
Giving a»ay money has with these
men taken the place of the desire to
pile up additional millions. They have
their own ideas about giving it away.
They seldom give large sums with
out imposing rigid conditions. Almost
invariably Mr. Rockefeller requires
that his beneficiary raise a similar
or even greater amount from other
sources Ref ore even the smallest
ar.ount is given the object is care
fully investigated. Mr. Carnegie is
equally careful. Skilled investigators
report on every application for char
ity. Only the most noteworthy re
quests are granted.
Messrs Rockefeller and Carnegie
have their prejudices and their weak
nesses. Roth also have their hobbies.
Mr Carnegie's is building libraries.
Mr Rockefeller’s is his gene-al educa
tion board and the University of Chi
cago.
Some Record Gifts.
i neir prmcipa. gif^ are surpris
ingly alike in size and purpose. Mr.
Rockefeller favors this university. Mr.
Carnegie that one. While one of the
ii king s chief wift has been JS.24 i
"to the Institute of Medical Re
search. Mr. Carnegie has given S13.
. 1 for pensions to educators.
Cfci.r< hes and missions have reccited
niort !rom the oil king than they have
:rcm Mr Caret gie The Rockefeller
■rirt of $.*?,.i, to the g nerai edu
cat: n board is the greatest single gift
ne r_ai: has ever made in the history
of the world, and it is said to be the
oil king's intention to increase it to
■,'1 w-thln the next few years.
Mr Rockefeller's big gif*s. like Mr.
i Carnegie's are always made in bonds
of railroads steel and oil companies.
It has been many years since the
oil and steel king have met. but in
their early days they were frequent
ly together They are about the same
age—Mr. Carr.-'gie is 73 and Mr Rock
efeller 71. Both started in life with
out a dollar, and both became mil
lionaires before they were 65. As
every one knows. Mr. Carnegie made
' • millions in steel and Mr Rceke
ieber his in oil. Both have given lib
eraliy to their home towns—Pittsburg
and Cleveland—and both now live in
New York. They have many oTher
I; -fits of resemblance, including their
unflagging interest in golf.
Rivalry of Magnificence.
And now these two men. having ac
cumulated greater individual fortunes
than this country has ever before
known, and having retired from ac
tive management of the great corpo
| rations in which they are the dom
, inant figures, are engaged in a unique
rivalry of munificence. Each is try
ing to see how he can give away the
greatest amount of money to accom
plish the greatest good. The philan
thropies of other rich men look almost
insignificant beside the regal gifts of
’hese two. though in proportion to the
wealth upon which they had to draw
other men may really have surpassed
them in generosity.
Today the live question in philan
•hropic circles is what will Mr. Rocke
feller do next? Other things being
equal, the man with the' bigger bank
account should win the race. And
Mr. Rockefeller is the richer of the
, two.
But if he tries very hard Mr. Car
negie ought surely to be able to grat
ify his wish to die poor!
Men know less than they let cn.
women more.

Dainties for Saint Valentine's Day.
1c preparing sandwiches for a Yal
i entice party, the appropriate shape is
j of course, a heart. It is a good pian
| when serving sandwiches to have sev
eral kinds. Th< following are a few
’ sut^testions which may be new to
j some:
Sardines sl.ndded and seasoned
| with chili sauce bt tween slices of
white bread. Yellow tomato preserved
j with ginger or lemon between white
! bread sandwiches. Gingerbread spread
with crt am cheese and thin slices of
; preserved ginger. Neufohatel cheese
seasoned with salt, cream, paprika.
Worcestershire sauce and a half cup
of chopped nuts, put between slices of
. graham or rye bread. A delicious
! sweet sandwich may be made by ba
king a plain sponge cake in sheets,
then cut with the heart cutter and
put together with flavored, sweetened
whipped cream.
Drain the juice from a can of
peaches, peel three oranges to a pint
of peaches. Arrange the sections of
orange alternately with the peaches,
sprinkle with sugar and pour over the
sweetened juice of the peaches. Serve
very cold
Cut squares of cream cheese, lay
in the bleached cup of head lettuce.
Roll the cheese in chopped nuts, gar
nish with half a walnut meat and a
few seeded white grapes. Just be
fore serving add mayonnaise dress
ing.
Another nice way of serving cheese
is to season cream cheese, add
chopped nu's and use this mixture to
stuff dates.
Beat the yolks of two eggs until
thick, add a cup of brown sugar, one
cup of chopped nut meats and the
stiffly beaten whiles of two eggs; add
~ x tables poonfuis of flour and a pinch
of salt. Spread on a buttered sheet
and bake in a moderate oven. Cut in
luares when removing from the ba
king sheet.
Peaches and Orarges.
Delicious Salad.
Nut Cookies.
f it is bad f >r the pitcher.
Things Wcrth Remembering.
A heavy rocking chair that is hard
to move may. by ti-vrc the rockers,
be made to slide * r.s***
Never throw away popcorn that re
fuses to pop. because it is too dry.
Sprinkle it with water about five min
utes before using and usually every
kernel will pop.
When tl.e clock refuses to run. try
t utting a smail dish of coal oil in the
clerk The oil will evaporate and
loosen up the w ,-rks.
Powdered alum mixed with a third
as much talcum and applied with a
flannel will polish gold braid
A cup of sweet milk added to the
water in which oatmeal is cooking
makes it richer and better flavor.
To remove the grease quickly from
soup, lay on squares of tissue paper
on the surface of the soap and re
move lightly when well saturated.
Household Hints.
During the cold months, w hen hang
ing out clothes on wash day. it may
be well to remember that there are
ways of making that task pleasanter.
For one way. hang the small things
like handkerchiefs and napkins on the
clothes horse and set them out on the
back porch out of the wind, to freeze
and dry.
Anotherk help is to warm the
clothes pins in the oven until quite
hot. It is surprising how long they
will keep warm and how much it helps
in quickly placing the clothes, to have
warm fingers.
A custard pie may pose as several
varieties: by adding a few tablespoon
fuls of cocoanut. it is a cocoanut pie.
A little chocolate makes it another,
while carraelizing the sugar before
adding it to the custard gives another
flavor decidedly pleasant.
Dried peas are much cheaper than
the canned variety, and can be used
just as many ways. Try them with
a stew- of mutton, putting the peas
in with the meat and cook slowly for
several tours. The peas season the
meat and the meat adds to the flavor
i of the peas.
T IS more difficult and calls
for higher energies of the
soul to live a martyr than to die one.
House-Cleaning Time.
The up-to-date housekeeper does
not make house cleaning a burden to
her family or a torture to herself.
She begins early enough to do things
that may be done early, and when
time is not so pressing.
An hour or so a day to go over
drawers, desks and boxes will accom
piish wonders in a few weeks' time,
with co apparent effort. Here is
where the systematizing of one's work
will show.
There is so much that must of ne
cessity be thrown away, but it seems
a pity that good magazines and pa
pers which would be a pleasure to
many, should be burned.
Many good women are netting tbe
addresses of women who live out cn
our prairies out of touch with so much
that makes life worth living, and are
sending them old magazines to read;
this is true missionary work which
costs so little, yet means much to
1 poor people who love the things that
; are denied them.
Wheie there is an accumulation of
papers and magazines, they may be
sold or given where they will be sent
to those who will use them
By starting* early with this work
of looking over the household treas
ures. one has leisure to sort and ar
range things in good order. When
the cleaning time comes things are
‘ not then in a hurly-burly.
Have a large drawer in which are
kept nice pieces of paper, both tissue
and wrapping paper, string, ribbon
and boxes of all sizes. Such a draw - ,
er will be a source of comfort, as it
will always be in demand.
Keep in this drawer nice little gifts
' that have been enjoyed and are ready
i to be passed on. One thrifty woman
! has a few little gifts all ready to give
on occasions that are constantly ari
sing.
One who has such a well-furnished
j drawer is always ready when called
I on for donations for the children's
ward or the charity bazar.
Have a tray for the soap fastened
with rivets to the side of 'he scrub
pail; it will pay for itself in soap in
| a short time.

For Valentine Parties.
A very dainty way of serving cran
berry with chicken for any function
is to prepare the cranberry jelly and
i mold it by pouring the jelly into a
: cup and setting a smaller on* inside:
when cool fill the cup with chicken or
any meat desired.
An appropriate cake to serve for a
Valentine party is one frosted with
whi'e frosting and decorated with
pink candy hearts around the edge
and a rose laid on the center of the
cake.
A Lady Baltimore cake is a good
' one to serve on such an occasion.
Kisses are another dainty cake
which are great favorites for chil
dren's parties To the whites of nine
• ggs add a pound of granulated sugar
with as little stirrirg as possible Fla
vot with any desired flavor, drop on
burered sheets and bake a golden
brown Put together in pairs with
whipped cream, sweetened and fla
vored.
Maple Biscuit.
Cut baking powder biscuit with a
small-sized cutter, have the dough a
. quarter of an inch in thickness, lay
two together with a bit of butter be
tween and as much gra'ed maple
sugar as will stay on the halves Fake
in a hot oven Chopped nuts added
' to the maple sugar makes a richer and
nicer biscuit.
It is so easy nowadays to find ap
propriate favors, boxes or molds for
: serving h.on hems, ices or creams for
this festive day.
Ginger Nuggets.
Boil together one-half cup of water
and a cupful each of brown and white
: sugar. Cook to the soft ball stage,
add a quarter of a teasnean of soda,
half a teaspoonful of vanilla and
pour over the well-beaten w hite of an
egg. beat well and add a half cup of
chopped Center, ginger. Drp by tea
* spoonfuls on buttered sheets.
One may serve ice cream, the brick
variety, in slices, then n«e a heart
cutter to cut a heart-shaped serving.
The bits that are left may be re-frozen
or used as a dessert the next day.
Fragrance of St. Sophia.
Visitors to the mosque of St. So
phia in C onstantinople notice imme
diately they enter a beautiful fra
grance pervades the entire building.
The solution lies in the fact that when ’
it was built 1.000 years ago the stones
and bricks were laid in mortar mixed
with a solution of musk Those who
laid these stones have been long for

Green Foods for Pussy.
A woman w ho raises pedigree cats
for market declares that green foods
. in the winter are necessary to the
! health of the animals. For this she
provides the so-called umbrella plant,
belonging to the grass family, and
easily grown, to which she allows the
cats free access. This, of course, ru
ins the plant for decorative purposes,
but to many of us Miss Angora's ,
health is more to be desired than
■ many umbrella plants.—Designer.
The First “Cowboys."
"Cowboy" was once a sinister word
in American politics. In the Revolu
tionary war the “cowboys" were a
set of Tories in Westchester county.
New York, popularly so-called because
of the brutal roughness with which
they treated their Whig or rebel
neighbors. It was, no doubt, in
memory of them that the name of
“cowboys” was given ir. 185k to cer
tain people in Connecticut ar.d other
parts of New England who were al
most secessionists.
Personalities in “Pilgrim's Progress."
The "Pilgrim's Progress" is a gal I
lery of portraits, admirably discrimi !

verification as those of Holbein. His !
personages live for us as few figures
outside the drama of Shakespeare live
They are not, like the humorists of j
Ben Jonson’s plays, constructed by '
heaping a load of observations on a
series of ethical abstractions; they i
are of a reasonable soil and human !

THE SCHOOLS OF
WESTERN CANADA
In Seme cf the Cities and Towns the
School Buildings Cannot Accom
modate the Increasing Num
bers.
Cue of The most important factors
?n the building of a new country is
the attention that is paid by the au
thorities to the education of the rising
generation. Fortunately for western
Canada, the settlement of that new
country began in such recent years
hat it was able to lay a foundation
for this work, gained by the experi
ence of older countries. In this way
the very best is the resuit. Through
out the entire country are to be seen
the most improved style of architec
ture in school buildings. The cities
and towns vie with each other tn the
efforts to secure the best of accom
modation and at the same time get
architectural iines that would appeal.
Sufficient to say That nowhere is there
the greater attention paid to elemen
tary and advanced education than in
western Canada. A report just to
fcaaa snows That in Calgary, Alberta,
there are eighty teachers employed,
anu the enrollment 4.22> pupils. In
lire Province of Alberta there was a
it al of 40."60 rupils attending schools
5k 1909. The total enrollment for the
year In city, town and village schools
was 22.963. and the total in rural
schools w as 23.165. There are in the
province 970 schools with 1.323 de
pamnents. At the close of 1909 there
was a total of 1.096 school districts in
the province. Great attention is paid
also to agricultural education. The
best uses of the soil and such other
matters as tend to make the agricul
ture less of a drudge and more of a
success are employed. When there
is the combination of good soil, splen
did climate and healthy and advanced
ideas in the methods employed in
agriculture, we see accomplished the
results that have placed western Can
ada on its present high plane in the
agricultural world. There is to be
found men of high standing in liter
ary spheres as well as in financial
circles who are carrying on farming,
not alone for the pleasure they de
rive but for the profit they secure.
Mr. Adler, a wide-awake business man
. f New- York, has a ranch near Strath
mere. Alberta. He is highly pleased
with his success the past year. He
says:
“On July 25th we estimated our crop
at 6.000 bushels of wheat. A week
later we increased our estimate to
12,000 bushels. A few days later we
again increased our estimate, this
nine to IS.000 bushels, but after har
vest in September we found we had
20.150 bushels. If that isn't a record,
what is? he asked.
"This crop was made with practi
cally no moisture." he continued, "and
we now have & better opinion of the
fertility of Alberta lands than ever
and value our lands higher than we
ever did before."
Mr. Adler, who has been on the
"arch for r.bout a week, leaves for
New York Saturday.
This gentleman is conducting a farm
on a large scale, and has plenty of
means to develop it, and his may not
be taken as a fair case. There are.
though, instances of thousands who
have begun life on small farms in
western Canada with but brains and
the determination over and above the
couple of hundred dollars in ready
money that they possessed, and Today
are owners of large farms and hand
some incomes, all the result of their
efforts on land that was responsive to
the touch of the hand that held the
plow-. Instances such as these can be
quoted if you will communicate with
the nearest Canadian government
agent, w ho will also mail you free de
scriptive literature.
A Moscufc in uondon.
It is proposed to erect a mosque in
he capita! of the greatest Moham
medan power in the world, and the
only surprising feature of t he pro
ject is that it has not been executed
oefore. The building is to cost £ 100,
000. to which the aga khan has al
ready contributed £5.000. The com
mittee in control of the scheme is
presided over by Amir Ali. and in
cludes the Turkish and Persian min
isters. as well as three members oi
the council of India.—London Globe.
