One of their great advantages over molds is that a single cutter can make all the helpings of its form that will be needed for a company, however large, instead of necessitating a utilsil for each person, as iv the case when molds are used. The housewife does well to supply her pantry with nu- merous shapes utensil, for then she will be equipped for occasions whenever they occur. Card Motif Cutters. A set of card motif cutters will en- able her to provide many different variations for an inexpensive menu that will be as gratifying as a more costly menu without such distinction. A good way is to use one motif for each course. For instance, the club will lend itself admirably to the main course, the heart to sandwiches, the diamond to cake, wafers or cookies, and spade to the ices in the follow- ing: Menu Macedoine Tongue, Club Style Crystallized Ginger. Salted Nuts Bread Heart Sandwiches Frosted Diamond Cal Chocolate Spade Ice Cream Tea, Coffee or Chocolate Bonbons acedoine Tongue. The club macedoine is made by putting thinly sliced tongue, cut with a club cutter, on top of a macedoine of diced vegetables, marinated with French dressing, and placed on salad green. The crystallized ginger goes | admirably with this. as do also the salted nuts. No filling except the butter is needed for the sandwiches. Caken and Tce Cream The cakes may be of any kind, ex- cept chocolate. The ice cream is of this. They will require frosting, since they are cut from a thin sheet of cake The ice cream may be bought or hom: ade. It can be cut into about an inch thick or a little nd then stamped with the spade What falls away from the ped piece can be pressed other sl o be cut no waste. These forms can be made before the company assembles, if they are laid on waxed paper, one above another, in any water-tight container put in salted chipped ice. I may add that careful planning when cutting the cakes will result in compara- tively little waste. The pieces that Qiscarded can be utilized for a iarlotte russe for a family dessert Or they may line sherbet cups, can- ned fruit be put above and then marshmallow or spoonfuls of whipped cream top the dishes. This is but one of hundreds of ways of using card 10tif cutters decoratively Animals Children Like. Animal the delight of little folk.

EAR DOROTHY DIX: I am a mother 64 vears old. I keep house for my two sons. One works every day, the other doesn’t, so T find it very hard to live on the small amount of money that my sons can give me to run the house on. 1 have one married daughter, who wants me to break up mv home and go to live with her, but I do not think I could get along with her husband. My son is thinking about marrying and wants to go by himself. 1 have been a good mother to nfy children, but they are all looking out for themselves. I am a good housekeeper, and if I didn’t have this place on my shoulders I could get a nice situation living out. I want to be independent of my in-laws. What do you advise me to do? ~ LONESOME MOTHER. Answer: I advise you to get a good place as housekeeper, where you will draw down a good, fat pay envelope every Saturday night, instead of having to work for your children for nothing. A healthy woman of 54 is just in the prime of life, with many more vears in which to enjoy things, and she is the most foolish person alive if she doesn’t strike out for herself and have her own individual life. Of course, your children are all for themselves. Everybody's children | are, and you have no grievance there. It is nature for every young man and Wwoman to want to get married, and establish homes of their own, and g0 by themselves. You did the same thing when you were young. But a mother does a Wrong thing for the children and a suicidal thing | for herself when she goes to live with her in-laws, so long as she is able | to take care of herself. She doesn’t get any happiness out of it, because she |18 blamed for everything that goes wrong, and nine times out of ten sie finds that she is nothing but an unpaid servant She has to take care of the chilaren. She has to do most of the cooking and the odd jobs, and nobody ever says “Thank you.” On the contrary, everybody regards mother as « burden and groans over having to support her.

There is no way to increase your children’s respect and affection for you like being independent of them DOROTHY DIX. | ]DEAR DOROTHY DIX: Several years ago I married a good. hard-working man. He did not have much of this world’s goods and I had none, but I loved him and he loved me, and we were very happy for a few vears course, we had our spats, as husbands and wives do, but he was alway first to make up, and I was cold and stubborn and did not return for love After a while I allowed people, some of my own kin, to come between me and him and to cause me to do many unwise things, and I got a divorce from him.

The “body” is the material from which the ware is made. i, of course, the foundation. is the surface developed by firing. The dishes seen on the market range all the way from the unglazed clayware with opaque, porous body that is fired only once to the fine porcelain made from Kaolin clay and fired at intense heat until it is translucent. In between these, in point of hardness and translucency, comes much of our decorated china, which is double fired The higher the glaze and the more compact the body the more brittle your china will be.
