The same prin. ciple applies to baked beans, split peas, macaroni and most cereals When boiling potatoes, if the salt is not added until the potatoes are nearly cooked, it will help to make them dry and mealy. To whiten po tatoes, especially old ones, a teaspoon- ful of vinegar should be added just hefore they are cooked. When roasting a fowl after brown ing it, cover it with cheesecloth and then baste it through the cheesecloth. You will be delighted with the result, as the cloth will hold the steam inside nd will make the fowl more tender and more palatable. Covering a tur- key with cheesecloth will prevent it from getting scorched or drying too much while roasting. When the tur key is ready for the oven, sew it in a plece of cheesecloth and baste it through this covering, only removing the cloth when the turkey is ready to be served, when you will then find that it has the required golden brown color.

Bhe reads a book eztolling the charms of a young widow and decides to mgsquerade as one dur- ing her vadation. With a new wardrobe and a stock of fasci- nating tricks, she is quite the most popular girl at the Poppy Inn, but she cannot seem to make any im- pression on one man, Dean Hamp- ton. A crowd of the younger set spends the day picnicking in the Berkshires, and after lunch they separate fo go searching for a mysterious place called the Devil's Den. Fay discovers it, but in doing s0 ventures out on a rocky ledge over a 100-foot precipice. Part of the ledge breaks away, and it is Dean Hampton who finally rescues her. While she is unconacious he kisses her and is furious with him- self afterward. CHAPTER XXXV. Elsie and Dean. Dean’s persistent silence on the way home annoyed Elsie to the point of fury, and yet she was helpless to do anything about it. She could not show her anger because with him she had to play a careful role. She felt intuitively that if he knew about her temper he would be shocked and hor- rified, for Elsle was not so sweet and angelic as she seemed. In her rages she often did reckless things. Once, in « fit of anger, she had pulled the table cover off the library table, breaking a lamp and spilling the water out of a bowl of flowers all over the ma hogany table. She was usually ashamed of herself after everything was over, but she never seemed to be able to control her temper at the time. And now when Dean wus silent and did not answer her question for some moments, she felt a slow, hot rage creeping up in her. This time, how. ever. she made an effort to keep cool, and she forced a little laugh as she re- peated her remark. “IT don’t belleve you ever heard what I sald, Dean. A penny for your thoughts. They certainly must be in- teresting.” “They weren't worth a penny,” rned, shortly. f I wanted to be catty. T think I could guess what they were” Elsie said impulsively He turned to inscrutable Kkly “You were Churchill.” Her desire was to force Dean into the open, to make him express him- self definitely where Fay was con- cerned. She had a feeling that he did not like her, and for that reason she had felt that he was safe agal her blandishments. But the rescue, followed by Dean’s preoccupation, changed the looks of things and made Elsie suddenly afraid. A faint smile softened the stern- of his mouth “So vou think that any thought de- he red her and then, she his gray ey went on au thinking about Mrs The vseless things are the lovely things — Though life 1 bused on duty The Underwear That Holds Its Figure OST knitted underwear fits when first you put it on-— but MERODE fits after you have worn it.

And the reason is this: — Each MERODE knitted garment is individually cut by hand—not by the dozen. voted to Mrs. Churchill would be worthless.” Elsie flushed prettily “Putting it into words like makes it sound rather dreadful,” sald, slowly, “but somehow I just like Mrs. Churchill. I've tried to like her, and in thinking it over I've won- dered if perhaps my feelings were due to jealousy, but I don’t think it 1s that.” Of course, most of the girls at the inn hate her because they a Jealous, and in a way you can’t blame them. , Dicky Preston was devoted to Elinor' Ramsey before he met Fay, and now he can't see any one else It isn't as if Fay cared particularly for him, either, because she doesn’t. She just likes to keep every man in the place dangling at the end of her chain. Jack is head over heels in love with her, and I know she doesn't care a bit more for him than she does for any of the others.” Elsie was hoping that Dean would make some satisfactory reply. She wanted him to corroborate what she had said, to reassure her by agreeing with her. She felt that she had not gone too far in her arraignment of Fay; everything she had sald had been justified, and when Dean did not answer at once she asked a direct questfon: “What do you think?" “I hardly know Mrs. Churchill,” Dean replied, evasively. “You didn't before toda persisted, “but saving her life was a tairly personal thing, wasn't it “Personal enough, it you want to call it that, but for all that Mrs Churchill is practically a stranger to me. There's one thing certain, how- she hasn’t shown any desire to dangle me on the end of Ler chain.” “If you showed any interest in her she would,” Elsle returned, quickly, and then regretted her words the nex moment and wished she hadn't brought Fay's name into the conver- sation that (Copyright. 1925.)
