Life at such times seems more ageravating than usual. But the trouble is in ourselves, not in life or the people we encoun ter, They average about the same, day in and day out.

Meeting the same stran under similar circumstances next the man (if feeling normal) probably would trail the stranger placidly threug the door and maybe pause to borrow a mateh and exchenge the time of day and home brew recipes. There is nothing quite as cranky as a drunkard or other ddpe tiend vr ring from a debauch, with nerves on edge a hangover, All of us at times feel the same way, without any preliminary debaueh. We have simply lost control of our nerve force. The pipes are leaking, eager to explode. E What we do about it? Well, for one thing, we ean keep ourselves under control by a determination to maintain a placid and easy-going state of mind. Ruination of the whole day dates from the first yielding to anger when the button comes off as we start to dress. The more we yield, the more we allow ourselves to become irritated, the higher the pressure mounts in our internal mechanism, A good motto, when nerves are on edee, is: nothing nor nobody is worth getting mad at. from now, what difference will it make “Oh, well, A hundred years GOOD EATIN’ Something new to eat is invented in France and served at the Hundred Club, a famous organization of gourmets. Tony Girod, chef at the Cafe de Paris, originated this new mouth- waterer which has a name as long as a yardstick. Tony served his latest creation at a banquet given to th mayor of Dijon on the eve of that official's departute for Canada to preach the merits of Burgundy wines. (‘Thirsty Americans will wonder why a missionary is needed.) Now, ladies, if you want to surprise pa Sunday with Tony Girod’s latest delicacy, here’s all vou have to do: “Bake in the oven large peeled potatoes weighing at least a. pound apiece, Cut them open in a snuff-box shape and hollow out the pulp till they are almost shell-like. hand, prepare a fine Bechamel sauee with two soupspoonfuls of finely grated narmesan cheese and half a pound of butter. Whip these into a cream away from the fire and add some mushroom sauce. : “Pour this cream into each potato and then add two deli- eately rolled fillets of sole poached in white wine, a scallop cut in pieces, some shrimps, and some browned moril mushrooms. Cover with cream and then pass through a hot oven (the food, not yourself), Serve each potato with a shelled lobster’s claw and a thinly sliced truffle on top.’” Well, if that’s too complicated, give pa roast chicken. And athe best stuffing for a roast chicken, according to Mme. Yvon, the queen of French cooks, is made by this recipe: = “Season with black pepper, sage and basil savory and sweet marjoram mint, wild thyme and parsley. Soak the stuffing in port wine and truffles for 48 hours. Spread over the chicken a gravy produced by simmering the careasses of the birds in a fine veal. consomme, to which has been added port wine and Armagnac. If you want to convert this into a hot- “pie, use a-thin top crust and roof it with port wine jelly.” The gourmets of the Hundred Club are still smacking their lips. 4 2 O shucks!

I'd like to have you serve me every morning, for I cannot abide an acid face at breakfast. It sours my whole day.” Calvin Gray finished his break- fast, smoked a cigaret as he scan- ned the morning paper, then he dressed himself with meticulous care. Some men possess an_ effortless knack of commanding attention and inspiring coyrtesy. Calvin .,Gray was one of these. Before many mo- ments, he was i the manager's office, explaining, sauvely, “Now that I have introduced myself, I wish to thank you for taking care of me upon such short notice.” “It was the only space we had, If you wish, I'll ve your rooms changed ag soon as—” “Have you something better?” Haviland, the manager, laughed and shook his head. “Scarcely! That suite is our pet and our pride. There’s nothing ¢o beat it in the whole Southwest. “It is very nice. the rate?” “Twenty-five dotlars a day.” “Quite reasonable.” Mr. beamed his satisfaction. “It is the only suite we have left. We've put beds in the parlors of the others, and frequently we have to double up our guests. This oil ex- citement is a blessing to us poor innkeepers. I presume it’s oil that brings you here?” Gray met the speaker's interroga- tory gaze with a negative shake of the head and a smile peculiarly non- committal. “No,” he declared. I’m not in the oil buness and I hfe no money to invest in it. On the con- trary, I am a penniless adventurer whom chance alone has cast upon your hospitable grand _ staircase.” These words were spoken with a suggestion of muck modesty that had precisely the effect of a deliber- ate wink, and Yr.

Mr. 1G w: annoyed at being discovered he was, in fact, loath to acknowledge his identity. Usual- ly Mr. Gray's secretary saw int viewers. However, now that his identity was known, he had not the heart to be discourteous to a fellow journalist. Yes! He had once own- ed a newspaper—in Alaska. In- cidentally, it was the farthest-ndrth publication in the world. Alaska was a hard country, quite so, but nothing like Mexico during the revolution. Mexican sugar ant mahogany, it trangpired, had occu- pied Mr. Gray’s attention, for a time, as had Argentine cattle. Yuegsin hennequin, and an engineering | en- terprise in Bolivia, not to mention other investments closer to home. Once the speaker had become reconciled to the distasteful nee sity of talking about himself, he suggested an adjournment to his rooms, where he would perhaps suf- fer less embarraasnient by reason of his unavoidable use of the personal pronoun, Gray noted the effect upon his visitor of the Governor’s suite and soon had the yo man at ease, with a Corona between his tects Then followed a full three-quarters of an hour, during which the visitor discoursed in his very best style and his caller sat speilbound. Gray called at several other banks that morning. He strode in swiftly, introduced himself with quick in- cisiveness, and tarried only long, enough to fix -himself indelibly in the minds of those he had come to see, then he left. On the street, his long legs covered the ground at something less than a run, his eyes were keenly alert, his face set in purposeful lines, Pedestrians turn- ed to look after him. iH At the mayor's office he was i ned admission to the chief execu- tive, but insisted so peremptorily as to gain his end. The.call ended by the two men lunching together at the City Club, as Gray had assumed it would, and he took pains that igi bankers upon whom he had called earlier in the morning should see him in company with the mayor.
