'Ccncdian Settlement Where Women
Carry On Oldtime Industry.
At the little Canadian settlement of Ojibwa, which
la less than an hour's ride by trolley from Detroit,
is conducted one of the most interesting and pict
uresque Industries In America. Her* more than
three hundred French women, both young and old,
knit many thousands cf pairs of mittens, gloves
and Eocka each year. Yet nowhere In the whole
aetUement is there the hum of a single knitting
jnachino. Throughout its entire length of more
than flre miles the Ojibwa settlement appears to
■ j:e a peaceful, old-fashioned farming country. A

From these quiet hoxaes. with their «nsJnt kxdt
ittam wnmwn, wbose xnethofis are about a eentnry
.tjaMad t3ta times, comes the sharpest competition
'sslt "i»y some of the largesit knitting mills In Cart
ada and the United States. By these knitters are
made nearly all the gloves anfl socks which are
■worn by the famous Xorthwest Mounted Police. By
them are supplied the m:u«-ns worn by the workers
to nearly every one of thn mines and lumber camps
of the frozen North. In Winnipeg, Et, John's, Van
ooover and Prince Albert, along the Yukon and
iSlcJEenzle rivers and alons Hudson Bay their prod
ucts are regarded as Indispensable.
The honios »i the settlement comprise about a
-Titt&tfred and fifty houses, and in them are 805 knit
ters. The average production of these women is
'chout twelve thousand dossn pairs of socks, mlt
iteos attd sieves annually, and for their labor they
veceJve a.ri annual compensation of about $14,500.
«r nearly $48 a year for each knitting woman. To
Snodern housewives thiß w<>uM undoubtedly seem a
.very small sum in return for so much labor, but to
■the old-fashioned French women of Ojlbwa It Is
rvery sstisfsetary. <m their little farms these peo
tile Uv*> tha slmnlmst of lives, and their wanta are
ew. They spend little money, and nre quite con
sent tr> earn little. An expert among the Ojibwa
Jcnltrlng women can. if she gives most of her time
■to the work, knit from four to five pairs of the
iieevt<_-st grade ot men's mittens In a day, and
tnooe who are not quite so proficient can easily
finish, from two to four pairs of heavy mittens or
from three to five pairs of the cheaper grades In
»ne day. At this rate the women can make from
Sjo to bO cents a day.
For majiy generations this hand knitting of
sj[tov«-s and |jopi»>r>- has been a part of the house- '
life's daily work among the French settlers of this
district. ITntil about a quarter of a century ago it
•was almost unheard at for one of these people to
i>uy knitted goods In a store, for every French
•woman had learned the art of knitting from her
mother and had. in turn, taught it to her children.
/Xhen "store-made" gtiods were Introduced. Gradu
riUy the wearing of finer articles began. Then
ther^ waa a superfluity of handmade gloves and
fcofiiery for the French women, having knitted
r-lnoe they were old enough to hold the clumsy
inteel needles, could not give up the work which
Suid corae to be as roiioli a pastime as an em
ployment. Mothers continued to teach knitting to
♦heir daughters, and. if anything, the amount of
ifaandmade woollen gw>ds incrftased. Houses be
came stocked with glove*, mittens and socks, and
far a time tha country was literally overrun with
■roollen goods.
▲bout this time s> young man- named Z*e» Pago I
jßßjaaUea the Idea of employing- all of this wasted
eaei«y. He bought a few doeen pairs of gloves
and socks ami shipped them to "Winnipeg. The
email shipments were quickly sold and the demand
tor more grew steadily. Mr. Pa^e then canvassed
the Wench eettlement. With each v.uman he made
a, contract to buy all of her knitting, he to furnish
the yarn and she. to make the goods at aa average
race cf nln« cants a pair. Mr. Page now employs
the women In the OJibwa settlement, besides three
hundred others, scattered throughout the country,
and chips about 6Q0.000 pairs ot heavy gloves, mit
.i£Bs «vnl hos!«ry each year. At present the de
mand often exreeda the supply. During the winter,
\rijo theare Is little farm work to be done, even the
nen are pres«ed Into service and made to wind
yarn, ims goods and carry bundles of finished
■tnlttans to the store at Ojlbwa.
Pertsap* tho most Interesting woman of the set
tlement Is Mme. Pierre Olgnac. the oldest of the
O#bwa knitters. 6he 1c eighty years of age, and
tor seventy of those years she has plied her knit

Having pronounced the turtoan to be the
maiden aunt among: hats, the author goe3 on
to characterize the Alpine as the blatant wom
an's rlghter.
"Beware tho woman who wears an Alpine.
She has sharp elbows and a sharper tongue,
and she will Jostle you In a crowd or render
you uncomfortable In a streetcar with a
sangfroid born of selfishness and the belief
that the world and all that Is therein were

"Behold, then, a woman is known by the hat
she wears, and since the French sailor on the
head of one over sixteen proclaims that she is
lacking In good taste, so does the turban herald
its wearer guiltless of coquetry. The picture
hat bespeaks the philanderer; the toque, when
not too severe, a woman of humor and common
sense. More than half a peck of flowers oa any
one hat points to a leaning toward extravagance
and conversational Italics, while the hat ill ad

'unutterably sloven."*
Quantities of corn, barley, oats and field
flowers are being used by Paris milliners In the
newest hats. The corn and barley are arranged
in long, waving plumes, with rosettes or roses
at the base. The present way of utilizing
flowers is in every way a departure from all con
ventional ideas, a straining after novel and
bizarre effects being evidently more sought after

During hot weather nothing Is more attractive
as a dessert than an ice cream or some form of
water ice. While good Ice creams are rather
expensive, water Ices and sherbets are just the
reverse, as they consist of nothing but fruit
Juice, water, sugar and sometimes a bit of gela

Almost every fruit that grows can be used In
this dessert, and there are a number of good
combinations. The flavor of most fruits is
brought out In freezing by the addition of lemon

CHILDIiEN AT THE ZOO.
Bronw Park a Happy Hunting

There is not a month in the year when the "Zoo"
at The Bronx is not a happy hunting ground, a
veritable wonderland, for the children of this
countryside. Wide, beautiful, packed with the
strangest and most delightful birds and beasts. It
opens to them on every day in the year the most
fascinating pages of romance to waken their rip
pling laughter or stir their Insatiable curiosity.
"Yes." said one of the keepers. "I reckon we're
about as popular an institution as they is any
where 'round here with the children. We git 'era

and "way up the Hudson. Sometimes they come
from New Jersey, and I've even known a squad of
school children to make a pilgrimage to our mon
key house all the way from the Hub of the Uni

compliment to the kind of 'zoo' we're runnig here.

the big audiences that gather every afternoon in

"Mother," he asked quite suddenly one day, after

His sister is only seven, but she. too. has drunk

Outing of Women Writers in Con

The Canadian Women's Tims Club has but re
cently concluded an outing said to be without
precedent among woman writers. What was prac
tically a transcontinental tour followed the club's
convention at "Winnipeg this summer, giving the
members from all parts of Canada a unique op
portunity to see for themselves the marvellous de
velopment of the Canadian West In the last five
years. These extended outings, which are to be
come biennial treats, originated two years ago In
the club's trip to the St. Louis Fair. This year, as
guests of the Western Canadian Immigration So

party uniting at Banff.
Stops were made at the principal cities and towns
of the West, and a semi-royal reception was ac

included a reception by the Lieutenant Governor
and Lady Macmlllan. and by the Mayor and city
council. The example set by Winnipeg was
promptly Imitated by the smaller cities with char

almost entirely of former American citizens, re

positively essential. A little powdered sugar Is
added to the egg-white in beating. If the sh-rbet
is beaten hard while cooling and freezing it will
be light both in color and texture. This is espe
cially true of lemon sherbet. A sherbet will also
be lighter if the freezing can is only partly full.
To prevent lumps of ice from forming in the can
scrape the sherbet away from the sidea with a
knife. Freeze it until It is of a light, creamy
consistency, and not until hard and icy. Then

Various Recipes for TT?ing Caviar, the De
light of Epicures.
A well known New York dealer says that house
wives are apt to return the caviar they have pur
chased because it is black. They imagine that it
Is tainted or has turned that color through contact
with the tin can it cornea in and. therefore, must
be unfit for use. That one who is unacquainted
with It should be alarmed at Its appearance is
not to be wondered at. It also has a peculiar fla
vor, but several most savory dishes can be made
with it. As is well known, caviar is prepared from
the roe of the sturgeon. The species used for gen
uine Russian caviar inhabit the Caspian and Black
seas. Astrakhan is the principal place where it is
prepared and 400.000 pounds of It have been put up
In the Caspian fishery in one year.
On purchasing a can of caviar open it and turn
the contents out of the tin onto a saucer, leaving
it exposed to the air for several hours before using.
This will Improve the flavor. An excellent relish
is made as follows: Mix a small can of caviar
with half Its quantity of chopped young onions
spree 4 upon waferUk* slices of toast, squeeze a
little lemon Juice over the caviar, place a small
lettuce leaf over each slice of toast, then on top
of al^-toast. caviar and lettuce— place a few slices
of hard boiled egg.
For another relish, scald and skin two or three
red peppers. Mash them to a pulp. Cut pieces of
toast into cubes, spread them with the pepper
pulp and cover with a layer of caviar. Place on a
dish and garnish with thin slices of hard boiled
ergs, chopped chives and parsley.
For caviar on toast prepare six small rounds of
bread half an Inch thick by freeing the slices from
their crusts and cutting them round with a cookie
cutter. Then press a smaller cutter half way
through the bread and scrape the crumbs from the
Inner round, leaving the sides and bottom intact.
Place the rounds of bread upon the upper grating
of a hot oven. When well browned, fill the cavity
in each slice with the following mixture: Stir into
two large tablespoonfuls of caviar one teaspoonful
of lemon juice, one-quarter of a teaspoonful of
curry powder and ono-quarter of a teaspoonful of
paprika. Stir thi3 mixture over the tire, and
when the relish Is ready to serve place upon hot
saucers. Another filling Is made as follows: Put
two large tablespoonfuls of caviar in a saucepan
with one tablespoonful of cream, anil stir carefully
until It Is very hot. but not boiling. After pouring
it on the toast, garnish with radishes or oliv.s.
To make caviar butter, cream two tablespoonfuls
of fresh sweet butter and add one teaspoonful of
lemon Juice, a good dash of paprika and three
large tablespoonfuls of caviar. This mixture Is
very Kood for sandwiches or to 6erve with plain
bread or toast.
Club sandwiches are made by cutting white bread
in thin, even sttces. spreading one-third of the
number of slices with caviar Dutter and another
third with cream mayonnaise that is thickly
sprinkled with minced ham and olives. Eutter the
remaining slices of bread. Place the ailcea spread
with mayonnaise over the slices spread with caviar,
and then place a lettuce leaf on top or each and
cover with the plain slices of bread. This, as will
be seen, makes a sandwich of three layers.
any of the whitish Inner rtnd. After adding the
pulp to the syrup freeze the whole.
Blood orange sherbet Is made exactly like
sherbet from common oranges. Some house
wives like a blackberry sherbet. Add the Julcvj
and rind of a lemon to every two quarts of
blackberries, and follow any .rood rule for rasp
berry sherbet.
For a watermelon sherbet use only a very
ripe, well flavored melon. Scrape the pulp flr.e
and save some of the juice to use In p'.ur. of
water. Enough of the pulp should bo used to
profluce a strong flavor, as this frelt Is rather
lacking In It. Sweeten to suit the taste, and
when half frown whip Into every gallon of the
mixture the well beaten whites of three eggs.
This Ice may not have enough flavor to suit some
housewives. In preparing a cantaloupe Ice a
gill of sherry la added to the pulp of two large
rantaloupea. Put the pulp through a potato
rtcer, so as to exclude all the stringy pan. Ada
to It & pinch of salt, sugar to suit the taste and
