WOMAN'"S PAGE Pungent Ices and Beverages § BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKER. . There is something distinctly refresh- ing about & pungent taste to cold bev- erages or ices on hot days. It may be just a suggestion of pugency, but it relieves the pure sweetness, ich seems @ bit cloying sometimes. Mint adds a delicious flavor of this sort. It is put into iced tea for this reason and because it supplies a deli- cate aroma that is satistying. Just a ICED COFFEE WITH LEMON AND TEA WITH MINT ARE TWO DE- LICIOUS BEVERAGES FOR HOT DAYS. leaf of mint is sufficient for a glass of fced tea. This herb is also put into| lemonade occasionally. | Mint sauce over chocolate ice cream | is “something different.” The sauce | can consist of sugar and water boiled | to a syrup with mint leaves, or the| flavor may be obtained by an essence. | ‘The sauce can be slightly thickened | with a little cornstarch and have a lit- | tle cream added to supply the right texture and creamy look. Be careful to have the flavor of this mint sauce very delicate. It should not be like the pungent mint sauce for meats, but have & hint rather than a marked fiavor of the mint. Ginger ale served over ice cream makes a delicious home-prepared sun- dae. For an ice cream “soda” nothing could be simpler than adding a table- spoonful of vanilla ice cream to a small glass of ginger ale. For a goblet of ginger ale the quantitly should be doubled. The proportions for the gin- ger ale sundae and the ""&'er ale is what makes the difference between the two. Just a little ginger ale should be used for the fommer. A wonderful ginger sundae is made from water and sugar sirup with small pleces of preserved ginger boiled in it. The sirup should be heavy and the bits of ginger plentiful.

Straight Talks to Women About Money BY MARY ELIZABETH ALLEN. Family Finance Successes—No. 1. Countless women have written in to this depaitment to ask for an “ideal” way to plan and administer the family finances. There is no plan which every one would admit as ideal, but there are a few plans which have proved successful with others. ‘We really believe that mueh may be learned from these successes, and for that reason will present them succes- sively.
