Once this sort of thing was left to croquettes, and they degenerated into the mos! ordinary of dishes instead of being en- trees, of delicacy and individuality. Croquettes can no longer be classified as a “company dish,” although the highest type of croquette, made with 8 rich creamy sauce as the basis and scasoned with epicurean nicety, con- tinues to tickle the palate even of those with discriminating taste. It is sych a variety that still can hold its own tion should now be given to American salads. There are the salads that are a delight to thrifty homemakers because they pro- vide an opportunity to utilize left- overs in a pleasing way. These salads can be made so attractive that they gratify the eye as well as the appetite. Almost any left-over of meat (minus fat), of vegetables and fruits can be turned Into salads in a trice. Mayonnaise salad dressings can be made and kept on ice for days, and so be at hand when needed. French dressings can be mixed quickly. The latter are preferable on many kinds of salad. Them there are boiled mayon- naise dressings, cream dressings made of sweet or sour cream, and fancy dressing such as Russian dressing, all of which make variety, The second group ccmfr!su fancy salads, those that are carefully thought out to combine unusual flavors with decorative elements. Of these there are endless kinds from the candlestick | salads appropriate to Christmas—and ( also to Halloween—to flower salads as dainty as the blossoms they sim and which suit the Summer season well.

Malachi is here addressing the priests. t |In their high and sacred position they should be an example to others. Says Malachi: “The priest's lips should keep knowledge, and they should seek the law at his mouth; for he is the mes- senger of the Lord of Hosts” But these priests to whom Malachi was speaking had proven false to their po- sitlon. “Ye are departed out of the way,” he tells them. Thus they had become a stumbling block to others. “Ye have caused many to stumble at the law.” I wonder if we do not have a parallel to this in modern America? I won- der if we do not have here something that explains, in part at least, the wide- spread lawlessness from which America is suffering today? Most of our law- lessness belongs to the less fortus the less prosperous, the under class of soclety. But not all of it belongs there. There is a good deal of lawlessness among our higher-ups. And these higher- up examples of lawlessness are often widely paraded before the public. With these examples before them, what can be expected from those in the lower environments of social life? When the law is violated by those whose circum- stances ought to make them exemplary citizens, the effect cannot be other than to break down respect for the law on the part of the less favored elements of our citizenship. “Ye have caused many to stumble at the law.” Perhaps we would soon have . | fewer embezzlements, fewer bank rob- | berfes, less thievery and banditry going on in the country if those in high places { would be more scrupulous in observance of the law.

MOTHERS || AND THEIR CRILDREN. | 'FEATURES.” Unusual Parents of Celebrated Men Mother of Napoleon Stayed With Her Husband Throughout Mountain Wars Saved Much of Imperial Allowance. BY J. P. GLASS. TAM PUTTING SOMETHING ASIDE FOR THOSE OF MY CHILDREN WHOARE NOT SETTLED te In his youth Napoleon Bona despised his father, Charles Bonaparte, because he had submitted to the French after they had conquered the Corsicans in the decisive battle of Ponte Novo. He found the military school at Brienne, in which he was placed at 10, extremely distasteful because his fellow students were French and taunted him with his country’s surrender. “Your father submitted,” they jeered. “I shall never forgive him,” rejoined Napoleon bitterly. But if he was critical of his father, h2 always deeply admired his mother. “She had a man’s head on a woman's body,” he often said. It is certain that the best part of him was an inheritance from her. After Ponte Novo, Charles Bonaparte became & mere. parasite, looking for ease and pleasure. Though a noble, he was poor. For supporting the French he sought many favors. Chiefly he hoped to recover an estate which had passed into possession of the church. It was valn. He had been a different man in his youth. Then he had come back to Corsica from Pisa with a degree of doctor of laws to support with en- thusiasm _and courage the patriot ignoring the fact that he was enthron- ing his family right and left: “I am putting something aside for | those of my children who are not settled.” Nepoleon's fortunes were in ruins and he had been dead 15 years when she finally passed away in her eighty- sixth year.

Calories are confusing, yet they are an oxact measurement of food values, and any one who chooses to make study of them can do wonders for her- self and for others. I once told the story of a young friend of mine who became a qualified dietician—a career, by the way, that is ideal for young girls, since the work is pleasant, easy, and pays very well indeed. ‘This girl first of all reduced herself from some quite abnormal weight—her original reason for taking up this career. Then she went with a rich private family, where she supervised the meals, and during her years with them practically cured the father of diabetes, and has taken 40 pounds from the mother.
