NANCY PAGE Good Celery Is Even Better in This Dish BY FLORENCE LA GANKE. ‘The Page family was exceedingly fond of celery. It appeared on their table frequently. But after the hearts and inner stalks were eaten Nancy was sometimes at a loss to know how to use the outer pieces. Of course, the baby had celery puree frequently. Cream of | celery soup and braised celery were favorites. One day Nancy concocted a n;w "dlsh which proved most popular ' she used the outer stalks of celery, a cream sauce, cheese, toast lr.dl crumbs. The cream sauce called for | one cup of milk, two tablespoons butter and flour and thPee tablespoons of grated cheese. She melted butter in frying pan, added flour. When roux bubbled she poured in milk and let the mixture cook until it had bubbled over the en- tire surface. Then she added salt, pep- per and cheese. She cooked 10 outer stalks of celery. ‘This gave her about a cup and a hnu= when cooked and cut intp half-inch lengths. She toasted thrée slices of bread, put them in the bottom of the baking dish, poured the celery on top of toast and then put the creamy, cheese sauce over that. Buttered crumbs went on top. The dish was put | in over until crumbs were browned. The cover of the casserole was put on and the dish sent into the tgble and to the waiting Peter. It came Bck to the kitchen empty.

" Political Traits. ‘There seems to be scmething “nat-| ural” about the make-up of a success- | ful politician, at least in these United | States. If you study this question from | the standpoint of individual biographies you are tempted to say that successful politicians have from boyhood shown the traits that ultimately led them into office. ‘Whatever the traits of a successful politician may be, intellect, as it is con- | ceived in academic circles, is not one | of them. But he must possess a high degree of what has lately come to be called “social intelligence.” There is a great difference between these two sorts of intelligence. The first is unfortu- nately measured in terms of a grasp on diplomas, the second in terms of a grasp on men. It should also be said that from any practical point of view social intelligence is superior to academic in- telligence. If you take the present United States Senate as a basis, you will find that only about 60 per cent of them com- pleted & college course. Some of them have degrees handed to them after they got into politics. Of those who| have completed a college course, the law school is by far their most frequent, alma mater. ‘There 18 nothing accidental about the connection between a legal education and political achievement. In both the preparation for and the practice of law, social intelligence is the main attribute. A young man goes in for law because he is interested in people and the things they quarrel about. He is in all prob- ability a participant in social struggles from the days he was in grammar school to the day he lands in the Sen- ate, or wherever it is he wants to at- u|sn ;}ollm&l‘lefifnown, ocial gence is the ability to see the parts that different mdlvldyufils | are likely to play in the social contest. The \‘?‘tl‘ politicians size up men, as if by instinct. They know at a moment's notice the temper of their constituents, Still more, they know the sort of men it takes to manipulate their constituency.

I HAVE a letter from a young man who says: “I am about to be married, and while I do not aspire to be the ideal husband, I do want to be a tolerably good one. So will you list those faults and shortcomings into which husbands ordinarily fall, in order that I may avoid them.” Here is at least one prospective bridegroom who reelizes that a man's suc- cess in marriage, like his su in busines brings to bee and whethe: | of relying just upon luck. h> pu's his heart into it, instead Here s one young man with sense enough to perceive that the wav happy though miarried is to keep his wife so nmch in love with him tk | will always be on her tiptoes. trying to please him.

Also, practically every man goes into matrimony with the desire to make the woman he marries happy, and when he fails he is amazed and bewildered and doesn’t know how come. He has fed: her and &k’lhed her, and she has had the felicity of being married to him. w;l-.l mote uld any sane woman desire? SO if you would avoid the mistakes of these dumb brothers, begin first by giving your wife a square deal. Don't treat her as a doll fo dress up, or a plaything to amuse yourself with in your idle hours, or a drudge to do your cooking and cleaning, but as a partner who has put ewerything she is and has into the mat- rimonial firm, just as you have. Talk over your business with her. Make her realize that your success or failure depen: st as much upon hor efforts as it does upon yours. Hold her responsible for hor pat of the work. Make her realize from tite fir & that you ere going ehead and that if rhe doesn't keop up with you she wil t2 left bchind. Nine times Tien a wife falls to be a helpmate and a companion to her husband, it is because he didn't take the trouble to develop her into being one. Give your wife a square deal about money. Don't humiliate her by making her come to you like a beggar for the money she has earned by her own labor, Give her a definite allowance for the house and for her own personal needs, and don't ask her what she did with it any more than you would ask your partner what he did with his money. Don't cut out the love making just because you are married. Don't think th woman can live for 30 or 40 years on the sweet talk you gave her when you were courting her. It gets stale and worm-eaten with doubts and molded with suspicions, and she wants something fresh that was baked this morning on which to stay her hungry heart. Make it an iron-bound rule, that you never break, to tell your wife every day that in every way you love her better and better. Give her a kiss that has some real feeling in it instead of its being the cold and insulting peck of duty. Notice what she has on. Compliment the way she does her hair. And she will never find out, no matter how poor and hard worked she is, that matrimony isn't a glorious adventure and you a fairy prince. A Show your wife some appreciation. Most men make the mistake of taking their wives for granted and assuming that their wives are mind-readers who know how they feel about things. They never mention the state of their affec- té?lxixsl fronzhthf alfar to the grave, but they think their wives should know they still love them. ‘They never throw their wives a compliment for thrift or good management, ::: think their wives should know that they realize what helpmates they have n. their husbands have carved on their tombstones, most wives never know what their husbands think of them. o THAT is why there are so many discouraged wives who go along.doing their duty In marriage just because it is their duty and without getting any joy out of it. That is why so many wives ask themselves what the use is of working themselves to death for a man who never notices what they do, anyway, and over a bad dinner and never praise a good one. For it is hard to do things for those who do not appreciate them and easy to do things for those who do appreciate them. So, if you want to keep your wife thinking matrimony is worth while, jolly her along. Consider how little energy and pep you would put into your own work if all that you ever got for it was a bawling out. = Remember that your wife was a human being before she was a wife and t she has the same feelings and desires as you have. A lot of men make the mistake of thinking that when & woman married she is changed by some malign fairy on her wedding day’into a combination gas range and vacuum cleaner and that she has no other interest in life except functioning as such. They think that a wife needs no other amusement besides cooking and baby tending, and that she never wants to go out of the house or to have pretty clomiu,"nd that she prefers being treated as a drudge to being treated as a lady love. Don't make this fatdf mistake. Do something active to make your wife happy and give her variety and change. can afford. Take her @@t to places of amusement. Give her something new to think about.

From that time until her death she never lost her hold on him. Never has woman been more powerful than in France in the period of Jeanne | Antoinette Poisson le Normant d’Etotles, better known ‘o history as the Marquise | de Pompadour. ‘Women ruled at Versailles. Presiding over salons that attracted politicians, men of letters and artists, they formed influential connections which enabled | them to distribute patronage and pre- ferment. Those who gained the favor of the King grasped enormous powers. Louis XV's predilection for the Marquise de Pompadour was such that she be- came, in fact, if not the ruler of France, its_political “boss.” ‘Unfortunately for her country, Pom- padour was led by vanity, greed and superficial fancy. She caused compe- tent men to be removed from high of- fices and substituted worthless creatures of her own. She had Prince de Soubise, the poor- est officer in the army, made marshal, with the result that the French army was ingloriously beaten by Frederick the | Great. | M. de Maurepas, a distinguished min- | ister, was banished from Paris for 25 years because he belittled her charm. She yielded to the flatteries and gl(u\ of the Empress Mario Theresa of Aus- tria and helped to involve France in the Seven Years' War. . She was terribly extravagant, pur- chasing or building 36 residences she could not possibly use. Except when wishing to avenge her- self on an enemy, she was kind-hearted. ‘This, coupled with her genuine charms, enabled her to hold her sway over Louis. She did many worth-while things. For instance, establishing the porcelain manufactory of Sevres and aiding a t, deal in the improvement of Paris.” She was a patron of literature, and won the support of Voltaire, D'Alembert and other writers, though she could never win over Rousseu, whose famous decla- ration, “The wife of a coal-heaver is more estimable than the mistress of a| king,” was aimed at her. But these things did not begin to| counterbalance the injuries she accom- | plished. Inasmuch as she contributed heavily to the ultimate downfall of the monarchy, however, she may be said to have done good backhandedly.
