The shoulder is pressed | into shape o that its contour is some- | thing like that of a duck. This makes & good-looking roast when properly | garnished. i The name English lamb chops Is| given by courtesy, for the English call them mutton chops. This is & name of prestige rather than one to eliminate by suggesting that lamb is preferable to mutton. It should be remembered that | here in America the word mutton is fast giving place to that of lamb, which presupposes a more delicately flavored | meat. As a matter of fact the present lamb is, much of it, not young and | tender enough to warrant the new term | lamb, and the size immediately indi- cates to those who know that it is at| least, “slipper,” which is between young | lamb And actual mutton. | Already it seems that mutton is be- | ginning to be a scarce meat—for vpl-i curean taste. It is delicious when | cooked right and by many is preferred | to lamb. For instance a leg of mutton | is its best when rare. while a leg of | lamb should, like veal, be well done. English mutton chops are equal to any lamb chops when done to a turn. They should be cut at least 1! inches thic and be broiled quickly at first, then | slowly until evenly rare inside. There are some hotels that make a specialty of mutton chops. and no one who has not eaten perfectiy cooked and seasoned English mutton chops can realize their excellence. English lamb chops should | be broiled as described. Among the other new or varied names for lamb cuts are Saratoga chops, cen- ter leg chops, shoulder steak (we know shoulder chops well!—neck slices and rolled shoulder). Do mnot forget that turnip is a vegetable as definitely asso- ciated with mutton and lamb as are green peas. (Copyright, 1930.) Gingerbread.

Fashions of Today BY MARIE SHALMAR. Styles in Nails. Did you ever study the hands of the lovely ‘ladies of old, whose portraits painted by celebrated painters hang in the art galleries> If you have done this you may realize that shapely hands of fine, smooth texture have always been admired, but you may also regjize that ideas in beautiful finger nails change. Almost always in the paintings of sixteenth centuries the finger nails are cut straight across the ends of the fingers, and are sometimes very short. The ladies of those days would doubt- less have looked with amusement if not contempt at the longer or more pointed nails admired today. Fashions change in finger-nail shapes as in the modes of arranging the hair and the straight- cut nail may conceivably be brought back into fashion at some future time. In the meantime, what is the really correct shape for the nails? The best- dressed and best-groomed women do not allow their nails to grow very long— on the other hand they do not permit the effect of excessive shortness at the sides. The important thing is to have the nails always look the same, not ex- cessively short at the sides just after a manicure and a little too long later. There really should be no point at all about the nails, just a graceful oval similar to the oval where nail joins finger. NANCY PAGE Paris Sends Pictures and Desctiptions. BY FLORENCE LA GANKE. Martha's Paris letters and sketches came with frequency. But there were none too many to suit Nancy. Being a clothes authority herself, with a feeling for style, line and color, she was already to study fashions and to enjoy pretty things even when she could not afford to buy them for herself. Just now she was quite thrilled with the sketch and description of Martha's newest purchase in Paris. “You would love my new evening wrap, Nancy,” read the letter. “It is of black transparent velvet. Of course, the wrap is short and equally, of course, it has a cape. But this Molyneux model is different in that the cape is only in the back. There is a big, floppy bow in back also. The sleeves are cuffed gorgeously with soft, white fur. I feel like a million dollars—no, I sup- pose I should say francs—in this new wrap.” The second sketch from Paris was described in this fashion: ‘“Here is & picture of a stunning outfit worn by a young girl in our hotel here in Paris. The outfit is of gray tweed. Even the hat is made of the tweed. There are lots of tailored tweed things over here. Usually the hat which goes with the costume is made of tweed, too. “This girl wears a dull blue organdie blouse made (‘\:ll? frilly and feminine. You can see the frilly cuffs as well as the pleated frill in the front. This particular outfit does not include a tweed bag, but frequently this is an integral part of the costume. By all means, Nancy, get yourself & tweed ensemble if you wish to dress the way the Parisian woman does.” (Copyright, 1930.) » Free your home from bugs « « Dethel destroys pests—all kinds— quickly—surely without the slightest trouble.

EAR MISS DIX—Last night I heard a woman say to her husband: “I do be- lleve Mary is in love with you.” Don't you think it is mistake for her to | have said such a thing, even if it were true? Do you think a wife should pay compliments to her husband? I think men are vain enough as it is. I have often wanted to tell my husband something nice about himself, but I have kept | stlent for fear of making him conceited BUBBLES. Answer—I agree with you that a woman is an utter idiot who tells her hus- band that some other woman is in love with him. Great is the power of sug- Restion, and there is no other way in which a man can so easily be turned into a Philanderer a5 to be told that he has a fatal fascination for some woman. He may never have noticed her before, but to find out that he has charmed her immediately rouses his interest in her, and he would be more than human if he didn't begin experimenting to find out how deep an impression he had made !'upon her. Also, it would create a sentimental interest in him for her, because | we all just naturally admire the people who admire us and regard them as hav- | ing superior intelligence and taste. Nothing is truer than the old saying that | love begets Jove. Part of the tragedy of the jealous wife is that she brings her misfortune down upon her own head by this power of suggestion. For in always accusing her husband of being unfaithful to her and having affairs with other women she makes him believe that he is such a sheik that no woman can resist him, and this sends him forth to try out his charms upon every female he meets, A wise wife never tells her husband how much other women admire him, but she gets out the cymbals and beats upon them in celebrating her own good opinion of him. I want to warn you that if you refrain from praising your hus- band you are making 4 fatal mistake and opening the door for some lady with oney on her tongue.

(3) T thought of getting a permanent next week. Would it be wise if my hair is split>—Mrs. C. H. Answer. (1) Your hair is evidently too dry. Massage the scalp every day and apply a tonic two or three times |a week and a scalp food once a week. The following makes a good scalp food: Three drams lanolin, four drams vase- line, 15 grains resorcin, one-quarter dram salicylic acid. Melt the lanolin and vaseline, heat well, add the rgsorcin, mix well: add the salicylic acid; keep covered in a jar. Apply a little to the scalp and massage well. As a tonic use one ounce olive oil, four drams of cologne water, four ounces bay rum, one dram tincture of cinchona. Always apply this tonic after & shampoo and two or three times a week in addition. Clip off the split and broken ends of hair. (2) No. Anything which stimulates the scalp and thus increases the circu- lation is especially beneficial to any one with dry hair.

(3) Soap will not enlarge the pores—in fact, & nightly cleansing with warm_water and soap is one of the most effective ways of keeping the skin clean and fine in texture. Of course the soap must be rinsed off very thoroughly after the cleansing, as anything left to clog the pores has a tendency to enlarge them. (4) Yes.

Sympathy. ‘Walt Whitman says: “And whoever walks a furlong withotit sympathy Walks to his own funeral dressed in his shroud.” Sympathy 5 a many-sided psycho- logical something. Some people get nowhere in the world simply because some one has sympathized with them at every furlong. The best thing you can do for some people sometimes is | to withhold sympathy.

And when it comes to sympathy, much of it is wasted Vice President Curtis doesnt have | much to say on the floor of the Sen- | ate now that he is the presiding officer | of that body.

Herod, too, had died and Berenice was said to have indulged thereafter in a love affair that reputation that she married again.
