Allow one tablespoon of sugar to each egg. When the meringue is used, omit the white of the eggs in the pudding itself, and use the yolks of |both. Marshmallow whip may be used for a topping.

The lovers hade good-by. For a really first-class crime story one must go back to the Middle Ages. Love and jealousy evoked actions no more sensational than are seen today, but vastly more picturesque. Take the case in which the principal roles were played by 1.

She found that some of the most ex- clusive schools, those with the highest rating, scholastically as well as socially, kept the girls’ wardrobes to the simplest clothes. They specifically stated that social life was not complicated at the #chool, nor did it call for party dresses, slip-over sw rs, simple skirts hung from waists and not from the hips, shoes with sensible heels, fine lisle and cotton stockings were among the requisites. Cynthia_looked over the list and de- murred, “Oh moms, there isn't & pretty thing in all that list. Can't I have & caracul coat, or a leopard skin one? Jenny is having one and I want & flowered net, and oh, I saw the darling- est mules all decorated with ostrich feathers. Can't I have those? I don't want to go to that poky old school.” It was that wail more than anything else, which decided her mother. The child was too young for such fussy and elab- orate clothes as she had in mind. She needed the wholesome influence of eimple living and high thinking. That evening Cynthia’s parents made applicatiof for entrance for their hter. — (Copyright. 1930.)

Gabrielle, his lovely wife, 3. The Castellan of Coucy, brave and handsome vassal of the Count of Cham- pagne. The plot was this: The fair Gabrielle became the wife of Sieur de Falel not from love, but by arrangement of her family, the ancient house of Seigneurs de Vergy in Burgundy, who had in view worldly considerations alone. But she was in love with the Castellan of Coucy. Now Gabrielle was pure and good, according to the best traditions of the fictionists. She was not unfaithful to her husband, nor did Coucy endeavor to lead her astray. But when she heard that he was about to go on a crusade to the Holy Land in company with his master, the Count of Champagne, and the King of Prance, her heart called to her that she must see just once, for the chances were that he might never return, A secret meeting was arranged. The lovers bade good-by after exchanging gifts. Coucy took with him from her some rings and diamonds and also a band woven of her own hair and silk, with knots of pearls at the ends, which he was to wear on his helmet. 1t happened that Coucy was fatally wounded at the Siege of Acre. Know- ing himself dying, he wrote a letter to Gabrielle, put it in her hair-silk bandeau, and ordering his esquire to embalm his heart after his death, com- manded him to take the articles secretly to the lady. ‘The esquire endeavored to carry out this mission. Unfortunately he was arrival in Vermandols, and that indi- vidual seized the balmed heart and was afoot. % As indicated before, they performed their crimes picturesquely in those days. Faiel had his cook hash up the heart of Coucy with some other meats in a ragout which Gabrielle particularly liked and served it to her for dinner. When she had finished eating he told her what he had done and produced the letter and bandeau to prove he was speaking the truth. Gabrielle responded nobly. “It is true” she said, “that T have dearly loved that heart, and it deserved discovered all that FORTY million women must be right — invariably they choose —and use COTY Face Powder.

Answer.—Did you never stop to reflect that there is no sex in talent, though we act as if there were, and that many times a woman gets the gifts that are supposedly masculine while a man is endowed with an aptitude for the work that we arbitrarily relegate to women? And thereby much ability goes to waste. In other words, there are many women who are better business men than their husbands, and there are many men who are far more domestic than their wives, ‘There are many women who are always misfits in their homes. ‘They never learn to cook or clean, and they are always bored with housekeeping and loathe it, but they make crackerjack business women and are happy and con- tented working their heads off in an office, Similarly there are plenty of men who are failures in business who enjoy nothing so much as puttering around their homes, and who always have an eye out for fashion and style. It is men of this type who are the successful hotel and restaurant keepers, and who make fortunes as dry goods merchants or dress designers or millinery creators. 8o, inasmuch as you find that your talent is for cooking and managing a house, why not develop it into a real art? Why not make yourself a chef who can command a fine salary? ‘Why not start a little restaurant or boarding house or hotel, for, to para- phrase Mr. Emerson’s immortal saying, he who can broil a steak or make a pot of coffee or fry a doughnut better than any one else will have people wearing street in the city. | a path to his doorstep though he lives in the obscurest house in the obscurest DOROTHY DIX. EAR MISS DIX.—I am engaged to & young man who seems to be deathly afraid of being henpecked. He has a complex on this subject and feels that he has to assert himself at every turn and ignore my every wish in order to show that he is not being bossed.

And at any rate I am getting sick of this henpecking PARTNER. Answer.—It is only little men and weak men who are afraid of being hen- pecked. You never saw a big man who boasted about being the head of his house and who made his wife kowtow to him. A strong, self-rellant man doesn't consider it beneath his dignity to consult with his wife and take her advice and be guided by her in many matters, but a weakling always disparages his wife and tries to make her feel small and of little consequence.

She's better off at home.” Train trips are necessary sometimnes, if ‘only to get away from situations which are more uncomfortable for baby than the trip, but they are, meverthe- less, tremendous bugaboos unless by practice the mother has learned the art of traveling comfortably with baby. The nursing baby is the most cheer- ful of travelers. His food arrives on schedule and with no digestive novel- ties the constant motion of the train usually keeps him snoozing most of the tim e. It is the bottle baby Who is an eternal problem. Changes of food and water are always dangerous, and when these changes are combined with the excite- ment of the journey, the worry as to their effect is sufficient to prevent a mother leaving the safety represented by _home. For a short journey the baby's formula may be mixed and bolled for 10 minutes, put into a sterilizea, glass Jar, cooled rapidly and packed in ice. For long journeys it has been found most successful to accustom baby be- forehand to one or the other or the milks most used for traveling—un- sweetened evaporated milk, or aried milk. These can be procured every- where and are the same under all climatic conditions. If small cans of the evaporated milk are used, oue for each feeding, no ice is necessary. Cans of the dried milk can be kept without ice for several days. Both driea and unsweetened evaporated milk are to be mixed when ready for use with boiled water, and if the water is boiled and put into the thermos bottle while hot, no further heating of the formula is necessary. Our leaflet on evaporated milk feed- ings will be sent any reader for the usual self-addressed and stamped en- velope. Directions for feeding dried nl\flk can be secured from your physi- cian, It is most convenient to carry two bags, one to contain baby's toilet articles, dresses sufficient to keep baby clean, a lightweight cover, small pillow, cap and coat and stockings, plenty of diapers (paper and cheesecloth ones are the most successful as the first can be thrown away and the latter most easily washed and dried) and some light toys useful for wakeful or fretful periods. The second bag can contain every- thing necessary for the feeding, ster] lized bottles and nipples, can of sugar, small pan, and long-handled spoon, oranges and squeezer if baby takes orange juice, small jars of vegetable soup or sieved vegetables made just for baby’s use and small enough so that a can is used at each feeding, salt, and cups or plates for the feeding. Cereal can be procured in the diner ® for the older child and the milk formula used over it. Baked potato at night can be used in place of the more familiar cereal and may be easier to get at that hour. A ripe, sieved banana can always be used to replace. cooked cereal. Journeys need not be a bugaboo, it is only the mother who depends upon friendly passengers to aid her in amus- ing the children, or a porter to solve her feeding difficulties, who goes down %o defeat.

Youth 1s econfident and shows it; Ase is wiser far and knows it. —Old Mother Nature. Impy the Black Chipmunk was get- ting the habit of staying out until after the coming of the Black Shadows each night. All the rest of the Chipmunk family took care to be safely in their beds very soon after the approach of the Black Shadows. They were afraid to be out after dark. You see, their eyes are made for daylight seeing. It is just the same with Happy Jack the Gray Squirrel and Chatterer the Red Squirrel and Rusty the Fox Squirrel. All are afraid to be out after dark. ‘There is but one of the Squirrel cous- ins who s not afraid at that time. ‘This one is Tiomy the Flying Squirrel. “No good will come of steying out 80 late,” declared Striped Chipmunk, who 15, you know, the father of Impy. “But,” protested Impy, “I like it when the Black Shadows come. I feel a lot safer then. I cannot 5o easily be seen.” “No, and you cannot see as well your- self,” retorted Striped Chipmunk. “When folly, round, red Mr. Sun goes to bed it is time for a Chipmunk to go to bed. No good will come of being out after dark. One of these days you will be picked up by Hooty the Horned Owl or Spooky the Screech Owl.” “Who are they?” asked Impy, who, quite naturally, never had seen them. “They are feathered enemies, who fly by night and see by night, and who would like nothing better than a ten- der young Chipmunk. It surprises me that you have not been picked up be- fore this. They have wonderful eyes and wonderful ears.” “What good do their ears do them?” demanded Impy. “Their ears give them a chance to use their eyes,” replied Striped Chip- munk. “I don’t see any sense to that,” said Impy. “What have their ears got to do with their eyes?” “A very great deal” replied Striped Chipmunk. “Their ears are so wonder- ful that they can hear the tinlest rustle of a leaf. They can hear it at some little distance and they can tell just where it comes from. Then they fly right to that spot and their wonderful eyes do the rest. Some hunters, like the members of the Hawk family, do all their hunting with their eyes; but the members of the Owl family use both eyes and ears. You may think your- self quite safe when you are sitting in the middle of a Black Shadow, but if Hooty the Owl should startle you with his terrible voice . so that you move ever so little, and in moving rus- tle a leaf, or made the least little sound with your claws, Hooty would have you before you knew he was bout.” “I guess I could hear him comin said Impy. “My ears may not be won- derful like his, but they are perfectly JOLLY POLLY A Lesson in English.

I have never had any diff- culty in hearing the Hawks.” “Don’t make the mistake of compar- ing Owls with Hawks,” replied Striped Chipmunk. “You wouldn’t hear an Owl if he passed so close that his wings almost touched you. An Owl makes no noise when he is flying. That is what makes him so dangerous. That is one reason why Chipmunks who are wise retire before it is time for Owls to be out. Owls do not like bright light, 50 they do not start hunting until the coming of the Black Shadows. I have given you fair warning, Impy. If you are a wise Chipmunk you will be in bed with the rest of us.” Impy said nothing. Striped Chip- munk had no way of knowing whether or not his warning would have any effect. (Copyright, 1930.) FOOD PROBLEMS BY SALLY MONROE. Going to Market. Some women have a feeling that there is unalloyed virtue in going per- sonally to market every day. They have a full fledged scorn of the woman who sits down at the telephone and in five minutes tells the provision dealers what she wants. But to this, as tc so many other questions, there are two sides. If you like to go to market, then go in person. If you use an automobile, then you may charge off the expense of gasoline to pleasure or else you may think that you save that much money by going to market. There are many things to consider in the question. But don't allow yourself to get into the habit of thinking that all trades- men are going to cheat you if you don't watch them personally. They are not going to cheat you. Most of them are honest and give you an honest sale, wh:t.her you stand watching them or not. If you do your ordering over the tele- phone, then be as particular about in- specting the food after it comes to the house as you would be in the stores. And be sure that you go to & salesman over the telephone who knows your tastes and demands. Tell him frankly, when you begin telephoning to him, that you will hold him responsible for sending you goods that you ask for, that you are willing to pay for them and want them of first quality. Very often telephoned orders are not given as much attention as personal orders simply because the voice at the other end of the wire is nothing but & voice. Get acquainted with the sales- man that takes your orders for lettuce and beets, with the girl at the desk who takes your orders for chops and bacon, and you will have much better “luck’ with them.
