R One of America’s best known illus- trators once said to the writer: “When I was a young fellow I hadn't the slightest idea what I wanted to do. I had been raised on an Iowa farm and the family received an occasional periodical containing drawings. I liked to look at them, but that is as far as I was interested in art. “My brother had already left home and entered the insurance business. I was inclined to follow his example. So far as the ability to draw a ‘was concerned, I was a total loss. How- ever, I figured that I ought to learn how to do something, no matter what, and I chose art. % “I went to the Chicago Art Institute with little’ or no thought of the pro- fession I was entering. It might just as well have been engineering, for all I cared. “The work didnt come easy fo me. Drawing from live models was ex- tremely difficult, but I stuck to it.” He was sitting in a beautiful studio as he told the brief story. On his desk was a pile of manuscripts from magazine editors.

The road we call “Lover’s Lane” is no exception. “Samson was going down to Timmath on a courting mis- | calories sion when that young lion roared against him. Even in the attempt to realize love's dreams there is always to be found a lion in the path. None of life's dreams can be realized without a struggle. There is no path any man can take in which his prog- ress, somewhere along the line, will not be disputed. Ask the men who have attained success in any trade, profes- sion or business and they will tell you of many lions that roared against them along the way and challenged them to battle. And they will tell you of many hard fights they had to put up to over- |~ come these lions. There is no way by which one can get ahead in the world Mm::t meeting and overcoming diffi- culties. ‘The same thing applies to spiritual rogress. One never gets far along he pathway in spiritual life until he hears the roar of the lion, for our “ad- versary, the devil, as a roaring lion, ‘walketh about, seeking whom he may devour.” Here, as in practical life, the path of least resistance is not the path that leads to high “attainments and achievements. Ask those who have ex- celled in spiritual character and service and they will tell you of many hard battles they had to fight, of many fierce lions they had to conquer. Let the young be warned.

Today's word: Advocate (verb); HISTQRIC LIARS Queen Elizabeth Succumbed to Sir Walter Raleigh’s Absurd * Deceptions GLASS. BY J. P. Queen Elizabeth might have forgiven Sir Walter Raleigh for carrying on a love affair with Elizabeth Throckmor- ton, but she couldn’t pardon his marry- ing the beautiful blond girl. ‘What! She, a queen, was to be jilted for a mere maid of honor. “Into the Tower with Raleigh,” she commanded, giving way to a terrible tantrum. She called the new Lady Raleigh every vile name she could think of, and banished her from court. Sir Walter didn't enjoy life in the wer. He neither loved nor esteemed the Queen,- but never spair—not over his separation his lovely, adoring wife, but because he no-longer could bask in the warmth of her majesty’s geunee. Seeing Elizabeth’s barge on the ‘Thames he acted fll::L part of one driven “His keeper, Sir George Carew, simple soul, was madness and caught him by the collar to restrain to plead in favor of; recommend pub- licly; support. “I earnestly advocate such’ action.” Virginia Fried Chicken. Boil a young chicken, cut in suit- able pieces for serving, in water to cover, to which has been added four tablespoonfuls of salt. When tender remove the chicken from the liquid, roll in flour, then fry until a golden brown in hot lard. Sprinkle with pepper, re- move the chicken to a platter, then pour the liquid in which the chicken was boiled into the ramaining lard in the pan. Add about half a cupful of but- ter. Blend four tablespoonfuls of flour into the liquid, pour in one cupful of milk, and let boil up, stirring con- stantly. If the gravy shows a tendency to curdle, add more milk and let boil up again. Serve the gravy with each por- Autumn Reducing Pians, Other fads may come and go with each pew season, but the vogue for re- ducing always seems to have adherents. There has been plenty of criticism of this fad from medical quarters and some style experts tell us that the slim, hipless is no longer fashionable, but the for reducing methods does not seem to have abated. Reducing schemes are of interest to two t; of women: First, the ex- cessively stout, who really needs to lose weight in order to keep healthy; and, second, whp are normal or a trifie overweight and want to be esthetic reasons. Tt is this latter class that ularly needs to heed medical warnings against too rapid, or too great a loss of weight.

Another danger to be avolded is lack of balance in the diet. One thousand calories less than the amount for the daily maintenance diet is as large a reduction as it is wise to e. Let me illustrate just what I mean. To calculate your. maintenance diet multiply your ideal weight by 15 if you live a sedentary life, or 20 if_you do manual work. This product will be the number of calories you need to kee] your weight where it is. By deducting 500 or 1,000 from this figure you will get the number of calories for your daily reducing diet. If your weight is 150 pounds and you multiply that by 15 and subtract 1,000 you will get 1,250 pef day. In any case you should not try to live on less than 1,200 calories a day.

Help came to the latter and after a desperate contest the prisorier was car- rled back to his chamber, outwardly rebellious but inwardly smiling. ‘To his friend, Sir Robert 11, he wrote a note which he knew would be shown to Elizabeth. “How can I live alone in prison, while she is afar off?” he demanded * * * “I, who was wont to behold her riding like Alexander, hunting like Diana, walking like Venus—the gentle wind blowing her fair hair about her pure cheeks like a nymph; sometimes sitting in .the shade like a dess, sometimes playing on the lute like Orpheus.” As on other occasions, Elizabeth was moved by Sir Walter's words. In two months he was free again. But for the time being he was forbig-len to come to_court. Elizabeth Throckmorton was always a good wife to him.
