FEATURES Food and Raiment BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKER. One task of housekeeping that is es- sential, if one would be considered com- petent. is the immediate putting away of art where they belong when hey come from stores. To have an t of various dry groceries ly. out of place is bad enough it is not necessarily injurious to the ingredients. To permit fresh meat or fresh vegetahles and fruits to re main in 4 warm .room does impair their quality. The warmth and the ;mfflf'z 1 I f J Il T I WAL “IT IS NOT FOOD ALONE THAT SHOULD BE PUT AWAY IMME- DIATELY.” air act on the articles, and sometimes, as in the case of foods that are ab- sorbent. the flavor is harmed. Butter and fats will absorb pungent odors, as every housewife knows. So, apart from e disor and confusion that come from things out of place, we find that actual harm may resuit. The advan . tage of putting food away as soon possibie after it comes home is, there fore. twotnld There should be proper containers for viands. to be sure. for merely put ting some articles into a closet or even into a refrigerator is not always suf. iciant.

It should be airtight, and 50 insure the last of the butter being as sweet and tasty as the first piece cut off for the table. This is true of lard or other fats bought in bulk. Dry Groceries. Dry groceries frequently come in pa- per or other cartons, and can be put away as they come. But many groceries are bought cheaper in bulk and also in just the amount wanted Tea and coffée must be tightly covered or they lose their flavor and delicacy when the aroma escapes. If you do not have special containers for them you can use old. well washed and perfectly dry tins such as frequently come with food in them. The covers should fit | snugly, and each container should have | a label pasted on it to save time when getting out or putting away food. Piaces for Things. But it is not food alone that should be put away immediately on its being received. When dry goods parcels ar- rive the contents should go where they belong The trouble is that so many times it is difficult to know just where things that are new and sometimes rather “different” ghould be put. A closet may not have shelves enough to hold anything more than they do al- ready, and there is no other spot ap- parently where the articles bought should be placed. This does not imply that the new articles are not neces- sary, but that closet space {s cramped in many houses and apartments. When this is the case, it i8 a good idea to rearrange the things in the closet, and even dispose of such articles as are kept in the chance they may be need ed some time in the future, and to do this rearranging and disposal before the packages arrive home. Otherwise confusion is inevitable. It is better to do without extra things, even if they are much desired, than to overcrowd the available space until articles have to be left out where they utter up rooms Take Gowns from Boxes. Dresses have to bé taken from boxes and hung up as soon as they get to the house or they will get so mussed that pressing must be done to make them wearable. This means extra work for the home-maker or an outlay to pay an experienced firm to do the work. If the gowns, etc., are siightly mussed, as they usually are, anyway, hang them in a moist atmosphere, es- pecially a steamy one, for a while, and any lightly creased places will disap- pear. Often a kitchen gets steamy, and also a bathroom. It pays to “‘put the kettle on” and get up some steam vather than press frocks that are elaborate or heavy Dry Goods. Notions. : Piece goods get mussed when wrap ped too tightly, but whether wrapped or not it should be laid in & closet or drawer. Notions should be taken from their little envelopes and put in the work basket or in places for extra buttons, trimmings, etc.. according to what each is, and where it should go. Laundry should be put away prompt ly. There is nothing that adds much more to the appearance of disorder than freshly ironed clothes in full view. Every one realizes that there is a place for these articles, so it is ap: parent that they can be put away somewhere, and there seems to be no | excuse for having them lying around. | Tt takes just the same amount of time to put away things late as promptly It is the competent house. wife who acts quickly and thereby preserves viands in their prime. keeps dry goods, garments, etc., looking their best, and preserves rooms free from confusion. | SPRINGTIME BY D. C. PEATTIE. Trillium. The one species of | wake-robin which we boast in the| District of Columbia is not an obvi- | ously beautiful flower, but it has a | strange allure not unlike that of the jatk-in-the-pulpit. Its petals are a dark maroon, fleshy, and curiously aromatic: its nearly circular leaves, | whorled in_threes, are handsomely mottled with three shades of green and the whole plant, so low-growing, so fond of secluded woeds, is of & somber and modest color that does not attract much attention until the | flower 1s nearly under foot.

Perhaps | {1t can be described as having the odor of crushed strawberries. At all | events this smell is one of the pecu- |liar charms of our trillium There is not a plant in the world | that behaves more eccentrically than trillium. If humans grew fingers where their noses ought to be, they would not be queerer freaks than some of the abnormalities that may be observed in almost any large patch of trillium—say, one plant in a thousand. - Petals turned to leaves, sepals turned white, flowers turned vellow, stamens turned to petals, leaves four instead of three, and re- duced to organs one-fifth the natural size, flowers suddenly seized with elephantiasis. These are but some of the strange monstrosities of this ordinarily well behaved, modest flower. trillium or Washing machines of American make are being used abroad.

Says There is No Flame in Dead Ashes Can Lost Love Be Regained? I the course of a vear I get thousands of letters from women who ask me how they can regain lost love. Sometimes it is a girl whose sweetheart, once an ardent lover, has become indifferent and cold to her—who has, perhaps, forsaken her for another—who wants to know how she can get him back. Oftenest, however, it is a wife who seeks desperately for some magic whereby she can light again the love fires in the heart of a husband who has grown tired of her, who has ceased to care for her and who does not even take the trouble to hide from her that he regards her as a burden of which he would gladly free himself if he could It is the tragedy of these women that not even neglect, and insult, and faithlessness. and brutality kill their affection for those on whom they have set their foolish. dog-like hearts, and so they go on clinging with desperate hands to the men who are trying to break away from them. hoping against hope, praying that some miracle will happen that will give them back their ost love. But, alas, their prayers are never answered. The miracle never happens. No sorcerer can teach a woman how to weave a spell a second time about a man. The love potions that the credulous buy from fortune-tellers never work, and though a woman conjure ever so deftly, she cannot bring back the heart that has strayed out of her keeping. For of all dead things, nothing is so dead as dead love breathe back into it again the breath of life and make once more. No power can it a vital thing We do not know why we love. We do not know why this man or this woman has some peculiar appeal for us that makes us prefer him or her to all the balance of the world. We do not know why the touch of certain hands thrills us, why the quirk of a smile or the look in an eye draws us; why we have a sense of comradeship with certain individuals; why some man or woman fascinates us or why we desire one man or woman more than another who may be better-looking, more intellizent, more worthy in every way. OR do we know any more why we cease to love than we know why we love. We do not know why the touch of the hand ceased to thrill us nor why the charm that was onge so potent vanished into thin air, nor why the fascination fled and the one who once held us enthralled became a bore that wearied us to tears. It just happened, and we are as helpless before one situation as before another. | There are not many men who are cruel enough to find sport in breaking | a woman's heart and who deliberately win a girl's love, and play with it, and throw it away. There are not many husbands who would not remain their wives' perpetual lovers if they could. That was their romantic dream when they married. That way their happiness lay, and they would have kept their romance had it been possible. But, unfortunately, somehow the disillusionment came. The glory and the circling wings departed. Their wives lost their allure for them, and, strive as they might, they could not see them again with the eyes of a lover or bring back the old charm. Many a man would be just as glad to fall in lovg again wigh his wife as she would be to have him fall in love with her but he cannot do it. You cannot fan ashes into a flame. Perhaps if women realized how impossible it is to resurrect a dead love | they would guard the living love more carefully and run fewer risks of | killing it. They would take fewer chances of disillusioning their husbands by going about sloppy and slovenly at home and thus presenting a fatal contrast to the trimly dressed women in their offices and the dolled-up ladies they meet in society. They would reflect that no man can have much appetite for domestic kisses if they are flavored with cold cream. and that if a wife wishes to be treated like a lady love a sack of potatoes. i A ND they would see to it that love was not assassinated on their hearth | stones by ceaseless, senseless quarrels, by whining, and complaining, and nagging. and petty tyrannies. Nor would they permit love to die of that commonest and most deadly ailment, boredom. ~For if a woman can interest | her husband before marriage enough to make him pick her out from all the balance of the world for his life partner, she can interest him enough to hold him until the end of the chapter if she is willing to take the trouble and} perform the labor necessary to do so. { If, though, a woman, through carelessness or ignorance. has lost the love of the man she loves, there is absolutely no way in which she can win him back. Through d or a sense of honor she may hold his body. but his soul has gone from her forever, and she is wise she accepts the inevitable. It she is a girl, she should let the sweetheart who is tired of her instead of trying to nold him. Some other man she may make love her, but not the old one for whom she has lost her charm. . 1f she is a married woman whose husband has ceased to love her, let her agonize no more over the impossible task of reviving his passion for her Let her fill her life with other interests and thank God that there are so pleasant things in the world besides love For of this she may rest assured: There is no reviving of dead When once we have lost iar taste for a person everyt l.’lg‘ is over the French say DOROTHY love It is DIX (Copyright My Neighbor Says;: When making French fried potatoes, cut up the potatoes one-half hour before cooking. and soaR them in cold water till your fat is hot.
