WOMAN’S PAGE. Cheese Used a s a Condiment BY LYDIA LE BARCN WALKER. Cheese has s unique characteristic. It is not only a recognized food, but it is also used as a condiment! It seems strange to us here in America to think of it in the latter aspect. In Europe, particularly in Italy, it is employed as A DASH OF GRATED CHEESE SIFT- ED INTO SOUP GIVES A DELI- CATE FLAVOR. much as a condiment as a food. While it actual is used in the double ca- city in the United States, it is not ought of except as a food. ‘The difference between a food and a for nourishment, and the latter is used as a seasoning, sourch or relish. Some- times condiments play a very important part in making foods edible. A soup without, seasoning or condiments would be a sorry liquid. Many cuts of meat would fail to tempt the appetite unless condiments were employed in their preparation or unless they were served with the meats as sauce or relish to supply zest. 1t is when cheese is used to supply zest that it enters into the scope of the term condiment. ‘Then it is not used for nourishment, but to take some other food more appealing to the taste. In Italy, for instance, it is customary to aerve grated cheese in separate con- tainers to eat with viands or to sprinkle on them. It would amaze the uninitiate to see how generally this grated cheese (generally Parmesian cheese) is sprin- kled over foods. It is sifted lightly into other vegetables. ‘This use is recommended with some dishes. For instance, stewed tomatoes are given a little note of “difference” if a dish heaped with finely grated Par- mesian cheese is passed for each person to sprinkle as much as liked on his serving. Even when cheese is used as |a condiment in the preparation of a food, it is nice to have extra grated cheese of the same sort on the table, so that those who like more may be able to have it.

On a cold, wintry day, when the wind was biting cold and the snow plled high, Nancy liked to make her dinner table look warm and cheerful. Sometimes she used red candles. Oc- casionally she planned a yellow and brown scheme, When she did that she used yellow candles. She was planning just such a dinner. She decided to have split pea soup for first course.

OUR CHILDREN BY ANGELO PATRL Candy. All healthy children like candy. It is an essential part of a child’s diet, I believe, They ought to have their candy ration as regularly as they have their spinach and milk and fruit. ‘We do not offer spinach as a re- ward, nor potato baked to mealy white- ness and capped *with golden butter. And we don't say, “Now if you will sit in the dentist’s chair and let him look at your teeth—just look at them, you know—T'll give you a nice red tomato.” No, we say, “—a nice fat chocolate.” ‘That nice fat chocolate ought to be as much a matter of course as the other good things. It isn't because sugar is “s0 good” to children’s tongues and palates that they reach for it first and last and in between. They smack JOLLY POLLY A Lesson in English BY JOSEPH J. FRISCH.

Then we grown-ups get in our heavy work. Anything that gives a child so much leasure as that isn't any too good for im. It is under suspicion. Of course, childhood being human childhood, gluttony is its besetting sin. The youngster will gobble sweets if he gets a chance. He will take off the edge of his appetite and so lose other good and necesary foods. But cannot we manage all that without banning the necessary sweets? Without putting such a premium upon the fact that the child values them far beyond their proper level? Cannot we manage so as not to penalize their use so heavily that for the remainder of his life the child has a feeling of guilt when he eats a sweet? It would seem that much the same attitude that we assume toward baked potato might well be It might be well to stop offering candy as a bribe. It might be well to stop depriving a child of sweets as a punishment. It might help to keep some good candy on hand and serve it as casually and as regularly as any other item on the diet list. Or it might be just as well to acknowledge that it is more fun to eat some things than others—chocolates, and gum drops and candy sticks for instance—and provide that fun for the | children. They have to learn not to| drown themselves in their fun some day or other and maybe this eating-; candy business is a good place to begin. Everything in child training depends upon what kind of a child you have, what sort of people are about him, ‘what he means to environment and it to him. What is good for one child, in the family, may not be at all for the other. No matter how wise the educator, that hard fact must always lie at the root of the matter. | But—candy in some form, to some de- for almost every child. ‘The very ill child is in the hands of his physician and does not figure in this discussion. Healthy youngster are the ones that can use & good ration of sweets daily. Candy is a food. All food must be pure. Candy must be pure, high grade, every respect. Have you thought about the daily ration of candy? You see I have to do so because children in school must have it and have it under “This mol is very light,” not, “These molasses are very light.” BEAUTY CHATS ‘Winter Reduction Diet. If you are reducing and get outdoors much during the cold weather you can increase your food allowance a trifle over the ordinary diet ration. For in- stance, during the Spring, Summer and Autumn months you should keep your diet_down around 1,200 calories a day. In the Winter you can increase this to 1,300 or 1,350 and still reduce ‘because the cold air will use up so much vitality that you can afford to give your body this extra energy. | 1 would suggest that you train your- self to a breakfast of one slice of toast, preferably toasted brown bread, with the merest bit of butter, and a large cup of coffee, either black or with hot milk and without sugar. It is easy to learn to like unsweetened coffee; is of good quality and fairly strong you will taste its flavor more easily without the sweetening. If you simply must have sweetening buy the tiny | saccharine tablets and use them. | If you work very hard during the | morning and feel you must have some | extra nourishment to carry you on to- ward lunch, drink another cup of coffee or a cupful of hot consomme about 11 o'clock. The caloric value of all the | foods so far will be not much more | than 125. You must have heat without | employing heat and fat-making foods, | therefore you must get your heat by having everything cooked and hot. Hot | consomme, hot coffee, hot weak | with lemon are all invigorating, satis- fying and heating on a cold day, yet | add no flesh to your body. For the cold salads of the other months, substitute a plateful of hot cooked gréen vegetables—spinach, car- Tots, turnips, tomatoes, sugar corn, onions, parsnips, peas, squash, string beans, cauliflower, celery, cabbage, in combinations of three and four. A most excellent lunch would be consomme and a plate of these vegetables with a poached egg sitting on the top, and the merest tablespoonful of the sim- ylul pudding as a dessert, black cof- lee or weak tea. This leaves you enough calories for a decent sized din- ner.

C., TUESDAY, DOROTHY DIX’S LETTER BOX Has a Man a More Affectionate Nature Than Woman?—Wife Who Dreads Returning to the Farm. JDEAR MISS DIX—You and others of your profession always make the state- ment that a wife wants affection and loving words from her husband. All of you say tell your wife vou love her, show you love her by being affectionate: and pet her; treat her as you did before you were married. I have found in my own case that this does not work out. My wife is only 29, but she says that while she loves me, her affectionate days are over, and whenever I attempt to kiss or pet her she asks me to stop. I have made inquiries of married men under 35 in six different citles during the last year and found that 31 out of 40 men who have been married more than six years have had the same experience. Will Irwin says: “Man is incurably romantic. Woman is l eternally practical.” I belleve he gets closer to the truth, for I believe that man has a more affectionate nature than woman. Wish you would write in your column just how you arrive at the conclusion in regard to how a married woman wants her husband to treat her. ALFRED. Answer—Undoubtedly there are women who are human icicles, just as there are cold-hearted men who neither give nor desire affection, but I hardly think that they exist in the number that would seem to be indicated by the response to your questionnaire on the subject. I base my conclusions that practically all wives hunger and thirst for some definite concrete expression of their husband’s love on the thousands upon thou- sands of letters that come to me from women all over the country in which they cry out for love as a starving man does for bread. ‘These letters are written from the hearts of wives and voice their innermost longing, and it is for love. Sometimes these letters are from rich women whose husbands give them everything else on earth but love, and, lacking that, the balance is dust and ashes. “I have a fine house, fine cars, fine clothes, every- thing that money will buy,” a woman will write, “but my husband never shows me any affection. He never gives me a kiss that isn't just a duty kiss, and I ‘would give all of my jewels for just one sign that he really cares for me the way he did before we were married.” Often & poor woman will write that life is hard for her. She has to work beyond her strength. She is overburdened with children. She is always shabby. She never has any pretty clothes, or any of the luxuries that women crave. “But it isn’t poverty, nor the work, nor the hardships that I mind,” she will say, “it 18 my husband’s coldness to me. It is his never noticing what I do for him. It is his never giving me a kiss or a caress. It is his never wanting to take me any- where, even for a walk. It is his being grouchy and surly to me. If he would only show me that he loved me, it would make all that I do worth while.” When they are normal women with warm, loving, women's hearts they want love for the love they give, they want some outward and visible manifesta- tion that their husbands still love them and are still glad they married them and that they are still the only women in the world to their husbands. I think the frigid ladies you mention are rare and abnormal varieties of their sex and I am sure that the greatest desire of most wives' hearts is for their husbands to stay perpetual lovers. Nor do I agree with Mr. Irwin that men as a rule have more affectionate natures than women. I think women crave love more than men do because they live more in their emotions than men do, and because they have fewer interests in life than men have. A man who is married to a cold-natured woman, for in- stance, does not suffer from her lack of response to his affection as much as a ‘woman would from her husband’s failure to return her love, because he has other things to think of. He is too busy trying to make a living for his family, he is too absorbed in his ambitions and his career to have time to brood over his loss. He simply shrugs his shoulders and charges it up to profit and loss, and that’s that, while a woman can literally starve to death if her husband falls to feed her on the bread of love. Nor does it devastate a man’s life if he misses love altogether, as it does a woman. ‘The French have a saying that some women are all wives and others are all mother. Perhaps the woman who turns a cold cheek to her husband's kisses lavishes all of her tenderness and demonstrations of affection upon her babies. DOROTHY DIX. DIAR MISS DIX—I am & man 55 years old and have lost the use of my left hand through an accident. At my age and in my physical condition it is next to impossible to make a new job in a city. I have a little money and wish to buy a small place in the country where we can raise our own food and some chickens and things to sell. I was brought up on a farm and know how to do things. My wife objects and says going back to a farm is going back to grand- ma’s day. Do you think we should do it or not? HARRY. Answer—T think your plan is fine and the most feasible thing to do under the circumstances. It is paying the landlord and the food bill that takes most of our money in cities, and when you can raise your own chickens and butter and eggs and vegetables it doesn't take much to live on, Tell your wife that the farm has changed since grandma’s day. Most of the farm houses now have electricity in them and radio and phonographs and tele- phones, and a little car panting in the garage, and a postman coming by every day. and the isolation and the drudgery of farm life are things of the past. But the beauty and the peace and the quiet still remain. DOROTHY DIX. DEAR MISS DIX—If you were a young man 28 years old and had been en- gaged to a young lady more than two years who refused to marry you until you had saved up $1,000, wouldn't you think that she didn’t have much confl+ dence in you, or that she didn't love you much? N. W.R. Answer—No. I would think that she was a very sensible young woman and one who looked before she leaped, and wanted to try me out and see what sort of a man I was. Evidently she is of the opinion of Mr. Hill, the great railroad builder, who said that the test of a man was his ability to save. If he could save )"’l‘e lv;'oudld be a success. If he could not save he would be a failure as long as e lived. If T were you, I would begin nursing my dimes and pinching pennies and save up that $1,000 in order to get that level-headed girl. She will make a grand wife and you will end up a rich and respected man in your community. DOROTHY DIX. (Copyright. 1930 PERSONAL HEALTH SERVICE BY WILLIAM BRADY, M. D. At first | That Grumble.

In a little more than one year three men distinguished for their skill in por- traying the foibles of their fellows passed away. The first to go was Rich- ard F. Outcault of Buster Brown fam the second, T. A. Dorgan; and yester- | day, the friends of Clare Briggs paid tribute before his bier. | Each of these men who contributed so | much to the humor of the world was in every sense a real “mixer.” They were | what folks call “good fellows.” It was | their vast contact with people that gave | them understanding of human nature. Indeed, it may have been their very gregariousness which hastened their | end. | The zest and sparkle of the lives of | such men frequently burn them out | sooner than nature would have it. Theirs is no silent, sequestered, brood- ing life. They would wilt like a flower planted in tHe desert, without human association. It was our privilege to know Clare Briggs in that intimate fashion afforded men following a kin- dred profession. In appearance he re- sembled any one save a man engaged in the business of causing chuckles. Most of us recall him as a small fel- low, with a funny little nose, and from whose mouth protruded an inveterate cigar. !(;ne Christmas eve, & number of vears ago, Clare and the writer occu- pled a seat in the smoker of a suburban train. The car was filled with male shoppers burdened with last-minute purchases. Immediately behind us sat a man carrying more than one kind of package. He began by raising his voice in song, which ended in protests against the prohibition law. Finally he ad- dressed the entire car, denouncing the institution which had “deprived him of his rights as an American citizen.” Briggs and I lis- tened to his tirade until we reached our destination. “Rather funny, wasn't it,” said the cartoonist. Several weeks later, Clare pic- tured the incident quoting the ine- briated gentleman word for word. It was this alertness, and his ability to make people act and talk in real life, which accounts for his place in the LITTLE BENNY BY LEE PAPE.
