One tablespoon each of butter and pastry flour. One-hali teaspoon salt One-gquarter teaspoon. pepper. One cup consomme. One teaspoon pimento. Make the same as a white sauce- that is, melt the butter, stir in the flour until thoroughly blended, and then gradually add the consomme. Chicken or veal broth may be used instead of the consomme, but neither water nor milk can be substituted, or whole character of the sauce is changed. Chop the pimentoes and stir in just before serving. Hollandaise Sauce. One-thiid cup butter. Two egg volks. Six teaspoons lemon juice. One-haif teaspoon salt. Dash of cayenne. One-half cup water Cream the butter in a small sauce- pan or top of double boiler, and grad- Iy add the yolks of the eggs broken with a fork, but not beaten. Add the seasoning and the lemon juice, and put the saucepan or boiler over boil ing water. Do not let the water in the under pan continue to actively boil after the other is set in it. Add the half cup of boiling water gradually, stirring all the time until the right consistency, which should be that of thick cream. If the egg volks are large a little more water may be add: This sauce may be-used hot or Mock Hollan e Sauce By using one-half cup of veloute sauce as a basis for the other ingredi- ents in the above recipe a larger quan- tity of sauce can be obtained.

HARL. “Strictly Tailored” Blouse This Spring hus seen a decided boom of the tailored waist, due to the revival of the tailored suit.

C., WEDNESDAY, Shows that {Doroth yDixH Sl Marriage Teaches That Man’s Nature Isn’t Very Different From Woman’s—And That Tact as Well as Love Makes the Wheels Go Round. Marriage Lessons HAT has marriage taught you? “It has taught me,” said a woman who i had been warried for many years, ‘‘that men are not so different from womean as we think they are, and that human nature is much of a muchness, whether it is masculine or feminine. . “When we march to the altar 'we think we are espousing a godlike creature, who is strong and wise and poised; and above all the petty weak- nesses that afflict women., “But after we have been married to him for a while e find that he gets sick and tired and cross and nervous, just as any woman does; that he has more funny little notionate ways than any old mald; that he can be | just as irritable and unreasonable and hard to do anything with as a teeth- | ing baby, and that there are plenty of times when you have to, metaphorical- ly speaking, turn him over your knees and give him a good spanking to { make him behave himself. “Marriage has taught me not to take a husband too seriously. It kes a wife a long time to find out that men never mean half they ay, and that little or no significance is to be attached to what they do. When {a man comes home and bangs the door and kicks the cat and scolds the children and finds fault with the dinner, it dosen’t mean that he is a brute | who hates his family and who is trying to break up his home. Tt is just the result of eating greasy pork chops for lunch, or having had a run-in with his boss or his business partner. % or does the fact that a man ceases to pay his wife compliments and forgets to kiss her good-bye indicate that he no longer loves her. He feels that the mere fact that he is working his fingers to the bone for her is proof enough of his affection. He fs saying it with checks instead of in s, and for the life of me T can’t see how a woman can be married to n for 40 years without finding this out ome of the dumbest husbands I have ever known were the most de- Some of the greatest knockers were the most admiring.

They want to be consulted about everything. They want to have their advice asked about everything. They want to feel that their wives look up to them as oracles. Hubby dosen’t really care whether you | have the bedroom papered in pink or blue, or whether you buy a red dress {or a black one, but he feels aggrieved if he is not called upon to arbitrate the matter. “Nine times out of ten he will tell you to go on and do as you please {and not to bother him with such trifles, but all the same he is tickled | to death because you made the proper gesture of recognition of his authori You can always forestall criticism by consulting husband beforehand, and he is so pleased at your asking his advice that he never notices whether you take it or not. “Marriage has taught me that men are just as vain as women are about their personal appearance. It pleases a man just as much to be told that he has lovely, soulful eyes and a classical profile and little feet as it does any debutante. “We women admit that we adore being told how beautiful and wonderful we are. Men never admit that they like to be jollied, but they just lap it up, all the same. And the real way to retain a husband’s affection is for a wife to put so much more pep into her flattery than any other woman does, that she makes the other seem cold and flat, and keeps him eating out of her hand. “Marriage has taught me that men are just as heart-hungry for love and appreciation as women are. “The cold, silent wife, who takes everything her husband does for her for granted is just as bitter a disappointment to the man she is married to as is the frigid, undemonstrative husband to the woman who has been unlucky enough to draw him in the matrfmonial lottery. “\Women complain of the sacrifices they have to make in Matrimony isn't all beer and skittl men, either. matrimony. | 6"T'HE average man spends his life saving for his family. and all he gets | out of his labor are his food and clothes. if thére is anything.left over | for him to buy clothes with after he has paid for the girls’ frocks and the boys' college-cut clothes. -And whether this domestic martyrdom pays o1 { not depends on whether his wife tells him continually how dear and wonderful { iind generous and brave he is, or whether she mags at him continually for {more and_more money, and whines because she cannot live like a | millionairess. | “Marriage has taught me that the soft answer turneth away wrath, and that you can Stop any quarrel by refraining from making a snappy comeback. Just admit that husband probably is right. and that there is much to be said on his side of the question, and an argument falls flat and lifeless. Just say that you are sorry, @nd that you will try not to let it happen again, when he begins finding fault, and he will turn around and commence excusing hortcomings.

Whence cume the saying? Was it originated by some wily schoolmaster in the hope of curing his charges of the obnoxious habit of talking about others who were absent? It might well ‘e been so used many times in the interval of several pundred vears since its origin. But its source is in a poem entitled “Has Caroll,” by Prior, the well known English poet of the seventeenth and early eighteenth cent The folowing are the lines in which it had its beginning “Since therefore 'tis to combat evil, Nis lawful to combat the Devil; Forthwith the devil did appear, For name him an1 he is always near.” saying, cussed, FEATURES. Billy Loses Respect. Respect once lost you'll find with pain "Tis difficult to e'er_regain i —-0ld Mother Nature. King Eagle stood beside the fish he had forced Plunger the Osprey to drop. He stod erect, his snow white head held high as he watched Plunger and Mrs. Plunger fly away to resume their fishing. He looked every inch a king. Bl'ly Mink, peeping from un- der an old stump, thought so. Many a time had he admired King Eagle fiying high above and thought him well named the king of the birds. He thought the same thing now as he watched from Kis hiding place. There was a nobleness in that great white head. There was haugthy pride in those fierce yellow eyes. And when Billy Mink looked at that great hooked bill and those big curved claws his respect for King Fagle was greater than ever. For a few minutes King Eagle stood there and Billy Mink remained in hiding, his respect growing with every second. It was a queer feeling this feeling of respect, for there are few whom Billy does respect Now, it King Fagle had picked up that fish and flown away at once Billy would have gone his way with any one elst in the Great World. But King Eagle didn’t fly away at once. Just a few feet away on the edge of the water he saw part of a fish which had been washed up. King Eagle is not particular. much whether his fish be fresh or not. That plece of fish would do for his breakfast, and then he would take the fish he had taken from Plunger home to his hungry Eaglets on the | Big Mountain. King Eagle started for that piece of fish You should ve seen the eves of Billy Mink pop out.
