w OMAN’S PAGE General Use of Ostrich Plumag, ’ BY MARY MARSHALL The ostrich boa is again in fashion. Ot is not a little ruff of the sort that was worn five or six years ago, but & Jong boa quite suggestive of tte boa ©our mothers wore when they were young. It is quite easy now to see how it earned its name from the snake that kills not with venom but with muscular force. For it often is + quite nine feet long, and is worn Sometimes twisted twice around the neck, somejimes with one end hang- dng at the back. Fur boas have been seen on cooler Ways. One well dressed woman has been wearing one of these new-fash- doned long boas of black monkey fur. Fut the fur boa will have to be tabled until autumn, and In the meantime ostrich boas are distinctly smart— smart, but very expensive. If you must sail close to the wind finan- ,cially, then content yourself with Ecarfs—for there are charming inex- pensive crepe and silk scarfs, whereas aw ostrich boa worth wearing is high yriced. Milliners have seen the possibilities.| 1n ostrich boas, and word comes from Paris that ostrich feathers in boa ,effect are used to trim small black satin hats that are at present quite the smartest thing for evening res- taurant wear or for formal teas. To the discerning observer all this ved interest in ostrich does not Teem like a mere vagary of fashion. 3t may be in part the result of the Tecent self-assertion of ostrich grow- ers in South Africa. At the British $impire Exposition at Wimbledon, South African ostrich farmers are showing the world the charm of os- frich. Moreover, they are overcom- ing possible prejudice by demonstrat- ing that ostrich feathers are taken from the birds without the slightest ‘ruelty. Twice a day mannequins pa- Tade in frocks, hats and other things \ Thade from ostrich. And all this Kewps the fashion for ostrich going— and it helps the South African ostrich farmer. The sketch shows a boa of ostrich of the sort that will be worn by emartly dressed women this summer BLACK AND WHITE BOA WORN CROSSED ON ' THE SHOULDER AND FALLING IN LONG ENDS. —often in lieu of a wrap on warm summer evenings. It is of white, speckled with black, thrown over one shoulder and falling in very long ends. (Copyright, 1924.) Our Children—By Angelo Patri Who Is Your Friend? My children: You are trying to grow up, and sometimes I know that things are not very pleasant and the \ way is not as easy as it might be. Things go Wrong every now and then, and you feel that life is pretty hard on you and wish for the days of the fairies, when all a lucky fellow had %o do was to find an old lamp and ,Tub it well and so command the earth. You like to think of what would Bappen to the grammar teacher and the yard monitor and the old lady who ' tells your mother that you chase her cat. You'd fix them. But Inere isn't any old lamp and no fairies to speak of. and the teacher and the monitor and the old lady and your folks are very real. But I'm not sorry for you, not a bit. I think I'm smiling a little at wvour woes. You've the wrong pup by the ear. You don’t know you own friends. There a little apple tres on the edge of my garden—a crooked. *knotted, scraggled tree, that has a couple of quarts of tight, hard, puck- ery apples on it every year. The Poor thing just grew up on the edge of the woods, and nobody ever paid a bit of attention to it from the time Tt put out its first shoot until now, when T've told the gardener to cut it down because it spreads disease 1o the fine little trees that are grow- ng in the garden. = ?hese little trees had some trou- bies growing up, too.

It was one of those cold spells that once in a while happen even in the early summer. As soon as it was past Hummer forgot it. You know it is Just that way with most of the little OF COURSE, MRS. HUMMER DIDN'T WORK EVERY MINUTE. peoplé~of the Green Forest and the Green Meadows. Trouble that is over isn't worth thinking about. Two or three days later Mrs. Hum- mer arrived, and there was a great twittering and darting about by Hummer to express his joy. To have seen him you would have thought him filled with nothing but love for his little mate. He appeared so delighted to see her that he couldn't contain himself. But Hummer the Hummingbird is selfish. Jenny Wren says so, and she ought to know. “Me may be beauti- ful and wonderful and all that, but he Is the most selfish fellow I know,” declared Jenny, as she watched Hu: er darting about like a living jewel. Now, Mr. Wren is a worker. He does a lot of the work in building our nest. Do you think Hummer will help Mrs. Hummer?” He is glad to see her now. but just as soon as there is . any work_to do you won't find him around. That fellow hasn't a care in the world, and, what is more, he doesn’t want any. Selfish! He's just plain selfish! Tut, tut, tut, tut! It is disgraceful!™ It would seem that Jenny Wren ‘was right. Having chosen a place for her nest way out near the tip of a branch of one of the apple trees, Mrs. Hummer started to hunt for material for that dainty little nest. She was very particular. Some folks would say she was fussy. That nest must be of the very softest material she could find. It was to be as soft as the softest down. Nothing else would do. Se she darted about, here, there 'and everywhere, looking for the soft, cottony material that cer- tain plants have them ‘in the spring and early summer. Most of it she got from ferns. ‘But not once did Hummer help her. He spent his time hunting for fave Tite flowers or in preening his beauti- ful little feathers. He didn’t appear gooey. Then just when they'd grown a fine mess of twigs, he'd come along and snip them off and burn them up. And when they had set fruit, if he didn't come along again and take some of them off. He was forever doing something with those tree raying and snipping and dusti and scratching and feeding and stak- ing them. To be sure they're quite handsome now, and spread out their great bou- quets of pink and white blossoms and give a party to the bees for miles around every spring and set out showers of the prettiest and daintiest fruit. They even think kindly of the gardener now. He doesn’t pay much attention to them any more—just feeds them and snips and sprays a little to keep them comfortable. They are quite strong and almost independent—as independent as folks and trees can ever be. So come along and be good sports. When the grammar teacher descends upon you and does a little snipping, or the yard monitor sprays you with warm words, when the old lady shakes her head and offers your sorely tried mother an old-fashioned remedy done up in a slipper, war- ranted good for teasing lads, keep vour head and know that they are truly your friends, Suppose nobody cared what you did? Suppose you were left to grow up on the edges of the life about you with never a soul to prune and clean and feed your growing body and mind? Don’t you see that you'd grow like that poor, scraggly. wee tree. without a friend in the world? And don’t you see that one day somebody would come along and say: “He's no zood. He's only hurting the others. Throw him out”? Better stop and study out who is vou really, truly friend. * (Copyright, 1924. ; interested in_what Mrs. Hum- Inef Swas' dolng.

In fact, tiny as the hummingbirds are, they must have plenty of food, for you know it is food that gives Strength and what we call energy. And it takes a great deal of both to keep a pair of wings going as fast as the wings of a-hummingbird move. Mrs. Hummer managed to keep that home she was building a secret. It was such a tiny home that only the sharpest eyes would be likely to see it. and she herself moved so swiftly that it was_ almost impossible to watch her and see where she went.

YOUR HOME AND YOU BY HELEN KENDALL. The Loaned Volume. Did you ever go to your book shelves for some beloved book and find it gone? You stand and stare at the place for a few moments, and then you murmur: “Now, whom did T lend that book to? 1 'remember telling some one about it and letting it go out to some- body—but who?" You run over your [T T lil IO CEASRCCODRTARLONNCRCRERD A I Ahlll(flllmll( AU list of friends and acquaintances, but to_save yourself you can’t remember. Meanwhile it is quite possible that the friend who has it is murmuring: Now, whom in the world did I bor- row this book from? I've had it for weeks, and I can’t remember where I got it. I ought to return it—but to whom?" Or perhaps the volume has been put away in a bookcase by a tidy maid and will not be discovered for another year, if ever. We all mourn precious books that seem to have disappeared permanently from our possession. Even one's name on the flyleaf doesn't seem to insure the re- turn of the volume. Here, then. let me tell you of the plan followed by an ingenius young woman who loves her books as if they were people, and whose chief joy is lending her books to those who would love them, too. She gets large sheets of durable decorated paper (wall paper for some, beautiful Jap- anese batik paper for others) and cov- ers each book, sewing the cover firmly. On the front she pastes a white label, bordered and letters in a bright color, reading: “This is a loaned volume. She also puts these labeled covers on books lent to her. Lying on the reading table the book covering is attractive to look at, inoffensive in "t | DorothyDix] Best Brand of Husband Is Native-Born American Who Can Be Trained to Eat Out of the Hand. VWHY !s a husband? A cynic says: A husband is the desperate remedy a woman takes to keep from being an old maid. A husband is the excuse for a show church wedding. No husband, no bridesmaids, no wedding presents, no bridal gown and orange blossoms, no two-column write-up in the papers, no preacher, no ring, no general display. Nothing doing. The chief difference between husbands and wives is that every little girl knows perfectly well that she is going to have a husband, while every little boy is fully determined that he will never be a husband, and believes that by some miracle lte will escape being one. The little girl wins out. The first husband of whom we have any record was named Adam. He established the precedent, which has been religiously followed by every husband from that day to this, of blaming everything that went wrong on his wife. He also thought that his wife didn't need any clothes, from which it will be seen that the habits of husbands have not changed in the last 30,000 years. - The genus husband may be divided into two general classifications— good hushands and bad husbands. It is difficult, however, to decide which one of these is most desirable, as while i good husband has his admirable points, the bad husband gives his wife the exquisite delight of posing as a martyr and telling her troubles to her friends. A good husband is, without doubt, a great blessing. but a husband who furnishes a woman with a standing grievance is a perpetual source of joy and complaint. This is why the wives who have drunken husbands cling to them and cherish them. - Opinions differ as to the most desirable qualities in husbands, but the best authorities, the women who have had four or five husbands apiece and who have thereby qualified as experts, agree that a model husband is a man who goes downtown at 9 o'clock in the morning and doesn't get back until 5:30 in the afternoon; who calls his wife's temper “nerves: who is handy at money making, and who wipes his feet on the mat before he en- ters his own goor. (Y the contrary. a bad husband is a man who audits his wife’s bills; who refuses to make her an allowance: who snoops around in the kitchen: who throws his mother’s biscuit in her teeth, and who expects her to stay at home and look after the house, instead of taking trips to' Europe. Since the war the husband supply has not only been noticeably short, but of an inferior grade, most of it being so spotled that it is scarcely worth taking. However, there are quite a number of varieties on the market. There is the old widower, who is housebroken and willing to throw in a llmousine and a charge account at the best stores as a chromo to make his offer attractive. There is the callow vouth, who believes that love is enough to marry on. He is a poor chance for a woman with a good ap- petite, who craves three square meals a day. There is the domestic man, who wants a cook who will work without wages, and the neurotic invalid, who requires a nurse. There is the rounder, who is a good temporary husband for the woman who doesn't object to an occasional trip to Reno. There is the tired business man, who falls asleep over his paper in the evening and who makes a restful companion. There is the self-concelted man, Who desires to annex a permanent audience to listen to him tell how wonderful he is. And there's the other woman's hus- band, who seems to have all the desirable qualities that yours lacks. « e e e UT while all husbands, everywhere, have more or less the same earmarks, each nationality has produced its own peculiar type, which may be readily distinguished from those of any other country. For instance, the American husband resembles a cash register more than any other object in nature. The English husband is a bear, and may be told by his growl. The German husband gives a lifelike representation of a domestic tyrant putting the final crimp on the females of his family, while the French, Italians and Spanish furnish the puzzle picture of “Find the Husband.' The best brand of husband on the market is the native-born American. This, if caught early, is docile, industrious, of a kind and affectionate dis- position, and if treated fairly well wi'l eat out of your hand, and seldom kick over the traces. The question of how best to domesticate a husband is one that is still a burning firnhlem in feminine circles, but the consensus of opinion seems to be by taking away his pocketbook and latchkey, as there is nothing that makes for virtue like the lack of the price and the opportunity. A husband is an exceedingly useful thing to have about the house, par- ticularly about the time when bills come in and the rent falls due. He also adds a certain eclat to an establishment. A husbandless house has about as much flavor as saltless soup, and for this, and other reasons. every unmarried woman is hot on the trail of one. DOROTHY DIX.

Favorite Recipes of Prominent Women BY EDNA M. COLMAN. RICE AND EGGS (Mexican). Mrs. Nelson O’Shaughnessy. While Mrs. Edith Coues O'Shaugh- nessy was holding down her end of her husband's diplomatic job in Ber- lin, St. Petersburg, Vienna, Rumania and Mexico, she also found time to gather the material for her half a dozen well known books. As a diplo- mat's wife in Mexico, nothing of hab- its and characteristics of the natives escaped her observant eye, and when the Huerta regime handed our repre- sentative his passports and summar- ily terminated their sojourn because this government witnneld its recog- nition, Mrs. O'Shaughnessy brought away many pleasant memories of the land of Montezuma. One of these is the fragrance and satisfying qualities of a Mexican dish, ever since a favor- ite. Describing it Mrs. O'Shaughnessy says: “It is a large heaping platter of rice, the rice boiled so that each grain is separate, though thoroughly cooked. On the mound of rice are placed at regular intervals, fried eggs between the eggs, crisp slices of bacon, while the edge of the platter is garnished with fried bananas. It is a dish that is a meal in itself. and when prepared as carefully as if the ingredients were the most expensive instead of the least, it is delicious. “I can see now the pleasant smok- ing dish prepared by the dark, small, beautiful hands of my Aztec cook, who placed the eggs, bacon and bananas on the rice with the precision of a only on worthy objects, to husband its strength, to make good use of its time and fo be thrifty in money matters. 1t today is your birthday, you pos- sess all the characteristics that are essential to success and contentment, except that of thoroughness.
