WOMAN'S PAGE Concerning Pumpk BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKER. Pumpkin ple is the great dessert *special” for Thanksgiving dinner, and 80 in American minds the pumpkin has become linked with the thought of November. Few people appreciate that they are merely turning their attention from one edible form of gourd to an- BOTH PUMPKIN AND SQUASH BE- LONG TO THE GOURD FAMILY. other. In the Summer, cantaloupe, musk melon, cucumbers and Summer squash in variety, supply luxury and diversity to menus, yet it is only in the latter, and in vegetable marrow, that those types are closely associated in the housewife’s mind with the idea of the pumpkin. Under the name of gourd this plant bas furnished an edible of such early use that it is impossible to trace its beginning. Also, it has undergone so many transitions, due to cultivation and BEAUTY CHATS How an Actress Reduced. An English actress, Miss Viola Tree, was so successful in her method of re- duction that I am publishing here the daily menus she lived on. She went on these menus for two weeks, then went back to her ordinary diet. When- ever she found herself getting a little too plump she went on the two weeks’ reduction diet again. Some of my read- ers may find this easier to follow than the system of working out the dally ration of calories. 8 a Black coffee (unsweetened) ple.

The difference in taste is slight between the latter and the yellow Winter squash. The pumpkin is richer in_ flavor, while the squash has more delicacy both in taste and texture. If the hom-maker prefers to serve squash ple instead of pumpkin to her family on Thanksgiving, she can know that | she is placing before them a pie of the same kind, although of different variety. Because of its delicacy. squash is bet- ter adapted to culinary variety than is the pumpkin. It is well to remember that each is a wholesome vegetable, be- sides being nutritious. The gourd family has also a cathartic element, very slight in our American kinds, but pronounced in some of the Asiatic va- rieties. 3 Pumpkin and squash have a sweet flavor, but here again we find the sac- charine quality of minor value in com- parison with some European kinds. In one country, Hungary, an attempt was made to extract sugar to be used as a commercial commodity, but it was an unsuccessful venture. This is men- tioned merely to indicate the well rec- ognized sweetness of the vegetable. Next week various pumpkin recipes will be given, and in some of them it will be IDE‘lHnC that the delicate sweet flavor has been taken into account, ad- vantageously. (Copyright, 1929.)

Straight Talks to Women About Money BY MARY ELIZABETH ALLEN. ‘Women buying bonds today seem to be as much interested in marketability as anything else. ‘“Marketability” of course refers to the readiness with which a bond may be sold. For ex- ample, a bond that is difficult to sell s nou readily marketable. To a certain extent woman investors are quite correct in their concern. Few women will care to own bonds for which buyers are few or scattered. No- body in & moment of need wishes to resort to advertisements or long dis- tance phone calls to sell her bond. That is why one of the first things such investors ascertain is whether the bond has a ready market, or whether 1t is traded in in any organized market. “Listing” has perhaps been over- emphasized in importance.’ It is a fact that in some of the important invest- ment cities bonds sell more readily over the counter than they do in the ex- changes. 1f the over the counter security is put out by a substantial and reputable company, and it has a ready market over the counter, lack of listing should not be considered detrimental to the Interests of the woman considering it for_investment purposes. We have been asked to give some tests which one may make to determine the marketability of a bond. There are a few tests, but one of the easiest to make is to learn the bid and asked price on a bond. If the gap between “bid” and “asked” is wide it is a fair indication that the bond is not read- 1ly marketable. ‘When the gap is expressed in eighths Willie Willis BY ROBERT QUILLEN. “I couldn’t think of any other good gleed for today, so 1 signed my own or other fractions, it is a fair indica- tion that the bond commands a wide market, and will be easy to sell should one decide on that course. The more active the sales in a bond the smaller the spread. ‘We believe there is one factor that is overlooked. ' Readily marketable bonds bring a premium. A woman in- terested in income and safety rather than marketability can secure a higher yield in bonds which do not have such a ready market. It is questionable whether every woman would wish to sacrifice yleld for salability. Quite often the bonds of companies not nationally known are not listed and yet they present excellent investment Pprospects, Simply because they are not well known or there is a relative lack of information about them is no rea- son why a woman should not seize the opportunity they present.

Joan had outgrown her small bed. Peter and Nancy decided to store it for their son's use later on when he was too large for his crib. Instead of buying another three-quarter size bed for Joan they purchased a full sized bed. Since this was going in a second guest room it seemed more economical to get & bed that grown-ups | could use. Nancy chose the four-poster, or per- haps we ought to call it a two-poster. The bed had low foot obard in modern fashion, but the posts at the head of the bed were tall and slender. A tester top was built partially over the bed. And on this, as well as for curtains and full valance, Nancy used & hand- blocked linen an gay pattern. A small footstool was placed ebside the ebd so that joan could climb in at night. For the nurse’s room Nancy took an old-fashioned small chest of drawers. ‘The wood was not good enough to warrant the removal of old finish. Had she done so there would have been no attractive grain of wood to be seen. Instead she took dull red lacquer and gave the entire chest a coat of this. When it was thoroughly dry she mixed raw umber in paint thinner and applied it, quickly and skillfully wiping it away with soft cloths until ongy traces of it were left in corners and near han- dles. The handles and edegs of chest were given a line of gold. The effect was rich. Old-fashioned glass dolphin candlesticks were placed on the chest and the mirror was hung above it.

DEAR MISS DIX. I have been married a little over a year and my husband and I are always arguing over the question of saving monmey to buy a home. I tell him that I want a good time for a few years while I am youhg, and he thinks we should save and buy a home. Which is right? V. Answer—Your husband is right. If you don't begin saving now when you are first married, you will never save and you will go through life one of those shiftless couples who spend as they.go, who live up to every cent of their earnings and who end their days in poverty and want. Little as you think it, these first two years of your marriage will determine what your future shall be. If you start systematic saving either to buy a home or to buy some good stock or bond or put regularly so much in the savings bank, | by the time you are middle-aged you will be independent, you will be sitting | pretty on the sunny side of Easy street and you will be honored and respected in your community and look up to as successful people. But if you blow in all you make on having a good time now, when you are middle-aged you will have no home, you will be drifting about from house to house with only a few pieces of battered furniture that will tell the tale of your many movings. You will be looked upon as ne'er-do-wells for whom people have a liitle contempt because they have never been able to get along. ‘When sickness or any misfortune comes, you 1 be a borrower, for you will have nothing laid by for the rainy day that is sure to come to us all and you will live in dread of the man of the family losing his job, as he is bound to do when he grows old. And you will shudder as you think of the terrible fate that awaits you, and that nothing but death can save you from; of having to spend your old age as a parasite on your family, Of course, you think that this won't happen to you because you don't intend always to spend all you make. After a while you are going to saving. Not just now when you want pretty clothes and a car to run around to parties and shows. But later on when you are older you will cut down on your expenses and commence to hoard the pennies. But, dear child, the time to save mever comes to the spendthrift. You will always want things. You will always want to indulge yourself. There will always be parties to go to and new hats and gowns in the shops and this year's model of car with new gadgets. So if you don’t start saving right now you will never do it. It is now or never. So begin today tucking away a certain percentage of your income. And very soon you will be unhappy unless you do it, for saving is just as much of a habit as spending, and when once you have acquired it you will find that it is just as thrilling and exciting to make a deposit in the bank as it is to pay it on your account for some foolishness you have bought. And in the one case you have something to show for your money and in the other case you have nothing. The other day I read in the paper that 80 per cent of the people over 60 years old were dependent either upon their children or public charity. You don't want to be one of those miserable old people who have to live | with in-laws who do not want them or who realize that they add a crushing welght to the already heavy burden of their own families under which their children stagger along. Save yourself from that drear fate by denying yourself a few good times now and laying up something for your old age that will make you free and independent and happy. 2 DOROTHY DIX. DEAR DOROTHY DIX: My husband and I have been married for a number of years and we have been unusually happy. Here are the rules I lald out for my guidance when we were first married and which I have followed religiously ever since. As they seem to have worked out all right, I pass them on to other women: I never nag. I say a thing once and then forget it. I never worry him with trifles. I settle all my little diMculties off my own bat. I try to be cheerful and an interesting conversationalist and a good listener. I am always primped up for my husband and have the house neat and clean when he comes home. I set a good table and cater to his taste in food. When I buy new clothes I tell him I got a certain dress because he likes me in fussy things or certain colors. I never fail to tell him how good-looking he is and how much superior he is to some other man he admires. Nor do I fall to express my appreciation of all that he does for If another man compliments me I let him hear of it through some This strengthens his belief that I am still good looking and attractive. I wait on my husband but not enough to spoil him. Just enough to let him know that I consider his comfort and happiness and make him feel he couldn't do without me. I see to it that his clothes are always in order. Not being able to find a clean shirt will u‘net the best disposition. I consult him about everything, knowing that he likes the gesture of the clinging vine in women and that I will really do as I please anyway. I am always at home when he comes in at night and have never left him longer than a week at a time. What do you think of my plan? HAPPY WIFE. Answer: T think it will work on any man at any time, oh, daughter of Soloman, and that if more women would use the same tact and unselfishness in dealing with their husbands there would be fewer men wandering away from their own firesides and that the divorce courts would have to shut up for lack of business. DOROTHY DIX. DIET AND HEALTH BY LULU HUNT PETERS, M. D. “Dear Doctor: Although I possess & very clear skin, I am bothered with a continuous run of pimples on my face. I have done everything I know to cure them—dieting and all. I have an hour's fresh air and walk two or three miles daily, eat large quantities of fresh vegetables, fruit and milk; little meat and few eggs; no eating be- tween meals and no candy or rich foods of any kind; two glasses of cold water on arising. My height is 5 feet 6 inches and my weight is 115. “These pimples seem to run in the family. Might I inherit the tendency to them? It seems too unfair when I watch other girls eat all kinds of rlcp food—ice cream, sodas, etc., and daren’t touch them. MRS. O/ You evidently have acne, Mrs. O. It is very common in young people, and stubborn to cure. ‘While you think your diet is right, I suspect that it is not quite sufficient, for if you are 5 feet 6 inches tall and weigh only 115 pounds, you are from 25 to 30 pounds underweight. This looks as though you are not eating enough, and any diet that is not cor- rect in amount, or otherwise, lowers the destroying powers of the blood and tissue fluids for any germs that may happen to be around. In other words, of organs are more susceptible to cer- tain diseases than others. For in- stance, the long, narrow chest seems | to be more susceptible to tuberculosis. | But it does not follow, by any means, | that these certain diseases must be ac- quired, for there are many other factors concerned in acquiring a_disease, and these factors can largely be controlled. | Reasoning from this, it may be that you have inherited the pattern for large oil glands on your face. These glands have an oversecretion of sebum or skin ofl, which sometimes hardens in the pores and forms blackheads or | comedones. The beginning of the acne | pimples is always in these blackheads.' 5o part of the treatment of acne is their prevention and removal after | formation. This mlfl be accomplished | by a thorough washing twice & day | | with some mild toilet soap and hot water, then wiping the affected areas with some antiseptic solution such as | peroxide of hydrogen, diluted half and | half with water, or a solution of alco- hol or bay rum or tollet water, then the extraction of the blackheads. This is best done with what is known as a comedone extractor. Follow this again with the antiseptic solution. This I would follow with a little glycerin so- lution—one part of glycerin to four of water. | the resistance is lowered. While your fresh fruits and vege- tables would take care of your vitamins and mineral elements, it is probable you are not getting enough energy foods, and it may be that you are not getting enough protein. In recent years the need of vitamins has been emphasized more than anything else, because they are the latest discovery in nutrition and are most apt to be deficient in the ordi- nary diet, but we musn't forget that sufficlent of the other elements is nec- essary also. If I were you, I would try to gain some weight and see what effect that would have. You are right about omitting candy loods, especially those rich in free fat (cream is not a free fat, but an emulsified fat), but you might eat more of the whole grain breads and cereals and perhaps take more vege- tables and milk.

Contented Man. “The lines are fallen unto me in | pleasant places; yea, I have a goodly | heritage."—Psalms, xvi.6. ‘This is the contented man. The con- tented man says, “The lines are fallen | unto me in pleasant places.” Not that his lines never fall in unpleasant places. He may have many sucn experiences. But he remembers and magnifies his pleasant experiences, not the unpleas- ant ones. He counts his joys and blessings, not his sorrows and woes. If he remembers his cloudy days, he re- members that they have been few in comparison with his days of sunshine. And he remembers, too, that no clouds ever covered any of his days but that they had a silver lining. The contented man says, “I have a goodly heritage.” Not that he is rich. He may be poor. Poverty renders some unhappy. Some are made miserable by riches. "He does not make his happiness dependent upon external things. So far as such things go, if he has but little, he counts it a goodly heritage. He does not consider the little he has as a mean heritage because it is not as much as some others have. He possesses a spir- itual heritage which enables him to make a goodly heritage of the meagerest portion of earthly possessions. Contentment is not something deter- mined by the outward vicissitudes of life. It depends upon what we have within, not what we have without. God and what God can mean in one's life— therein is the source of real and genuine contentment. He who can say, “The Lord is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup” is the one who can say, “The lines are fallen unto me in pleas- ant places; I have a goodly heritage.” And he is the contented man.
