WOMA Choice of Attractive Negligees BY MARY MARSHALL. There is rather disturbing similar. ity about some ‘of the new negligees and some of the new evening wraps.

Still, every woman owes herself and her family a really attractive negligee of some sort. Amd this season she | cannot do better than to choose one of velvet—velvet trimmed with light- | weight fur or lavishly with marabou like the one shown in the sketch. In choosing the color of your neg- ligee you should be guided by different | rules than those you follow in select. | ing either day clothes or evening | clothes. You have an entirely differ- | ent, more specialized background to consider. Vivid colors need never be climinated just because they are strik- ing. You might hesitate to choose an | evening frock of American Beaut rose color, lest you make yourself un- comfortably conspicuous. Or you might avoid certain shades | of lemon yellow or yellowish green for | fear they would be discords | key with the clothes of other women. { But providing these shades go well | with the decorations of your rooms | then there is nothing else to consider for negligees, save whether you like them and find them becoming. { .Every one is talking about the new sted flowers that women are wear- ing for buttonhole and shoulder deco- rations—and a lot of women are mak- ing them. It you would like to know how to make some that are just a little different from those you usually see, send a stamped, self-addressed envelope and I will send you directions for making, and sketches. They cost next to nothing, even if you have to buy the worsted—but if you have odds and ends of worsted on hand they cost nothing at all! (Copyright. 1927.) DAILY DIET RECIPE Tomato and Eggs, Baked.

One of the most uncompromising facts of life is the ultimate disillu- sionment of youth. He is, indeed, fortunate who can at the age of 40 sit 'neath the glow of a Summer moon and exult- antly proclaim that he h: never awakened from his stripling dre: ams. ‘The puppy_love which traces beau- ty on the ordinary face of “the first girl” is a form of jllusion.

Who was the lucky blade that married her? And then one day he returns to the scene of his early conquests and— Twenty-eight years ago a small ‘boy attended the Taylor School, north- east. There he fell in love with “a beautiful woman” of 12, He sharp- ened her pencils, brought her apples, followed her home from school and stood at her front gate until her father threatened to warm his pants it he didn't streak it for home. It was just one of those kinds of things. Then the boy's parents moved to Cleveland, Ohio, For a time the love- sick youngster corresponded with the girl, until finally his (or her) interest . waned and all was forgotten. The boy grew into manhood, mar- * ried and established a flourishing busi- aemamnn nenaee e Cesereanes ness in Ohlo.

The visitor planned to surprise the beautiful creature, so he adjusted his|m slickest tle, donned his flossiest suit and even bought a swagger hat. He ‘would ring her doorbell and then wait for recognition. What a moment! Calling a taxi, he directed the driver to take him to the lad: address.

Slowly a small crowd gathered around, but the colored man, if he saw it, gave no sign. Again and again he recounted the bricks. And then a wagonload of pebbles backed up against the curb.

A resident of this city was driv- ing with a young. ‘woman when his car suddenly fal- tered and stopped. He was 3 or 4 miles from the nearest village and the hour was late. He was afraid to leave his car on the road, and at the same time he had to see the young lady home. It was a peculiar dilemma. Possess- ing no mechanical skill, he was unable to find the trouble with the motor. Just at this point a county motor cycle officer drew up and cast a sus- piclous eye over the couple. The young man lost no time in explaining why he was parked on the road, The officer chuckled, removed his coat and began to tinker with the engine. At the end of half an hour the motor started. Donning his coat and fasten- ing his revolver belt, the road cop wished the couple good luck and dis- appeared around a bend in the road. 'hi service. —_— Maple Fudge.

The fritillary, mottled as a snike's skin, I planted in_ more sober rows in the south border, where the Narecissus and jonquils are lovely, whether you sprinkle them over the lawn or put them in winding rows along the borders. The marvel of these little bulb flowers is that they stand neglect, and even some abuse. They flower long before one is ready to mow the lawn, and by the time the mower is ready to pass over them, their leaves have done the better part of their work, stored food enough in the bulbs for next year's flowering, and can be cut down again, Indeed, in the lands which have climates most suitable to bulbous plants, where these, our garden flowers grow wild, the leaves wither and disappear at the approach of Summer, so that the lawn mower merely does what nature would be doing of her own accord under wild conditions. Macaroni Savory Pudding. Take one ounce of bolled macaroni, four ounces of bread crumbs, three eggs, one ounce of butter, one-fourth pint of milk, one tablespoonful of chopped parsley, one teaspoonful of minced leeks and one teaspoonful of lemon, thyme, marjoram, Winter sav- ory and sweet basil mixed. Boil the milk, pour it over the bread crumbs and cover the whole with a plate, When it is cold, add the herbs, the butter melted, the eggs well beaten and the macaroni cut into small plece Mix everything well together and sea- son with mace and spice powder. Pour the pudding into & buttered mold and steam it with a plece of paper over the top for three-fourths of an hour. Serve with white meat. Green Tomato Jam. There are many unripe tomatoes this season and these can be used very successfully for making a jam which is a little out of the ordinary. Wipe the tomatoes, slice them thin and simmer them with enough water to cover the bottom of the preserving pan. When soft, add three-fourths pound of sugar to each pound of fruit. Stir until melted, then bring to the boil and hoil fast until it sets on being tested. Skim well, put into jars and cover. Soft Gingerbread. To make this, use two eggs, one-half a cupful of sugar, one cupful of mo- lasses, one cupful of sour milk or cream, two tablespoonfuls of melted butter or drippings, one-half a cupful of dried currants well washed, one teaspoonful of spices, one teaspoonful of ginger, one teaspponful of baking soda, a little salt and two and one-half cupfuls of flour. Mix the soda and sour milk and add to the molasse: Sift the remaining dry ingredients, combine the mixtures, add the butter and beat vigorously. Bake for 25 minutes in a moderate oven. / Lo .

They know it and show it; we know it and | take account of it; the entire affairs of | the world and the arrangements of life must be adjusted to the differences of Jane and John.

But John doesn’t com- | pletely outrank Jane; in fact, if you select a group with high records in these special abilities there will be two Janes for three Johns in every five. Jane does better than John in nam- ing colors and sorting cards, in check- ing selected things in a list, in spelling, English and foreign languages, In these special abilities there will be three Janes and two Johns in each group of five.

So far as capacity to follow a large range of mental pursuits in and out of school is concerned, and in general equipment for the work of life, John and Jane are comparable, though the differences be- tween them are not negligible. And remember that in many paths in life small difference count, and count heavily in degree and manner of sue- ce Even though John and .Jane do equally well, they get the same comparable scores by support of a fairly different grouping of traits. Johns and Jane’s emotions present more fundamental differences than do their minds. There is much of the work of the world that can be better done by John and much that can be better done by Jane. perhaps still more that can be done as well by either, yet differently. The world's work will always need Johns and Janes. (Copyright 1927 ) 'fhroat Sore? Be Careful! Results in 2 Hours A sore throat is dangerous.
