NANCY PAGE —— Candy Has Place' in * New Desserts. BY FLORENCE LA GANKE. Lois was for easy desserts. ‘Thank goodness, r did not insist on heavy puddings nor pie every day in the week. He was quite content with fresh frult served with simple pound cake or with cookies, or just well chilled mellon. But still, even these palled when SIMPLE DE//ERT/ served day in and day out. Therefore, Lois hailed with joy a dessert calling for fresh or canned apricots, .cream cheese and stick candy. If she used the canned apricots, she drained them well. The fresh ones were washed and carefully cut into halves. ‘Then the pit was removed. Cream cheese was fitted into the cavity for- merly occupied by the stone. The two Lalves were put together and held with a 3-inch stick of candy—the kind which is no larger than a lead pencil in diameter. Another dessert called for whipped cream, peanut bri.:lc and cake, such as sponge, angel food or pound cake. The peanut brittle was crushed fine. A rolling pin does this well on the pastry board. About one-half ecup brittle powder was folded into one cup of whipped cream. The cream must be stiff. Then this mixture is set in the refrigerator to keep well chilled. for 10 or 12 hours, In that time the brittle ‘melts and makes cream buttery, salty and rich.

Could you think of a more fascinat- ing scheme for the furnishing of a boy's room than that shown in the accom- panying illustration, which looks so much like the cabin of & ship? In a bed room which had an alcove this would not be difficult to achieve, the services of a first-class carpenter being the first necessity. Of course, the alcove should not be any wider than the length of the bed; but if it is it might space could be sacrificed.

Indeed, we are because we work . Now I want to get away for a week and to be alone, but I am afraid I will hurt my husband'’s feelings if I tell him so. What shall I do? Answer—Don’t be afraid that you will hurt your husband's feelings by telling him that you want to go by yourself for a little while. He will probably i\un'p at it, for he is doubtless just as much fed up with you as you are with and will enjoy the separation just as much as you will. And this 1s no sign that either one of you has ceased to care for the other. It is just that it is humanly impossible for any two people to be together all of the time without getting tired of each other and getting to bore each other. We have to have change of soclety just as much as we have to have change of food. Otherwise it palls upon us. It is said that nobody can eat 30 quails in 30 successive days, and we all know from experience how we weary of the best cooked and most nutritious food if it is continually set before us. So with people. No matter how good and kind they are, no matter how much we esteem and love them, they get on our nerves if we have to be with them day after day and month after month and year after year. We know their every opinion by heart. We have heard their every story and reminiscence and we either sit up in silence when we are together or feel that we will scream in agony if we havs to hear them start on that old tale again. ‘That is why husbands” and wives should rarely take vacations together |- and should give each other holidays every now and then. When they come back together they are full of the new things they have seen, new things they have done. They have new zhlngs.to.ta.lk.over‘ DEAH, MISS DIX—I am 8 working girl, a secretary with a fair salary and I am anxious to travel and see something of the world. Please advise me if it would be proper for me to take a sea trip alone, say to Bermuda or Europe. How could I meet nice people of my own class on such a trip if Ipwere alone? ” A’ Answer—You are & wise girl, Patsy, to spend some of your money on travel. Nothing will dofirnmuch to educate you and broaden you. Nothing will give you so much to think about and so enrich your life, The money that we spend on travel is the best investment we ever make, because we have with it some- thing that we can never lose, the memories of the places we have seen that not un&y are a perpetual interest to think about, but that vitalize everything we read. Once in coming from Europe I was attracted to a plainly dressed little woman of middle age who was the most alert person on the ship, here, there and everywhere. Finally, I got into conversation with her and she told me that she ran a machine in a factory and that year after year she went through the same motions, with her only outlook a blank wall, and that the monotony of it, with nothing to occupy her mind while her hands worked, was running her crazy So she took all of her money and went to Europe and spent it on this trip and she was going back to the same job. “But I shan't mind it now,” she said, with her eyes shining, “for I won't be seeing that blank wall. T'll be seeing the green flelds of England and the Houses of Parllament and the Tower and the glittering shops of the Rue de Ia Palx and the grave of the Unknown Soldier under the arch, and the gondolas at night on the canals of Venice and so on. Oh, I'll never be bored again.” And she was right. She had something to think about the balance of her life and so will you have a precious souvenir of every trip you take, The front panel of the bodice ex- THE STAR’S DAILY PATTERN SERVICE ‘Youthful Treatment.

T seems that even so apparently prosaic a thing as an appointment to the Tariff Commission can have a tinge of romance. ‘Take the appointment of Dr. John D. Coulter, for example. Dr. Coulter's appointment by the President to the commission calls to mind ‘a decidedly unusual story. So far as I know, this is the first time this story con- cerning the doctor has been told—de- spite the fact that as far back as 1910 he had been more or less a prominent | l‘igure in national airs. As_president of the North Dakota Agricultural Col- lege, as chief econ- omist of the Tariff Commission, & position he has helé for more than a year, and earlier a per- sonal representative of the Ame Governmen! , he carved for no niche in public affairs. But the story of how this pleasant and .waé:::mm!ormkmrnlmo{e- uca for politics is one that has a most romantic background. Back-in 1910 the late John Lind was Governor of Minnesota. John Coulter was In North Dakota, a valued expert on the faculty of the State Agricultural College.. The daughter of Gov. Lind was ac- quainted with the North Dakota profes- sor, while he, in visitor to the executive mansion, though it was in a different State. On one of these visits he found him- self in the drawing room talking to Gov. Lind. The conversation drifted from one subject to another, when suddenly the Governor turned to Coul- ter with an abrupt statement: “Doctor, I am looking for & man for the presidency of the University of Minnesota. Can you suggest'some one? What do you think about it?” Coulter thought for a moment. Then, turning to the Governor, he said: “There is a man in New Jersey—in fact he is Governor of the State—who is the very man you are looking for lfbyou can persuade him to take the o 5 “His name is Woodrow Wilson, for- merly president of Princeton. Ris term as Governcr expires shortly. Per- haps he would consider such an offer as you have.” Gov. Lind took to the idea. Turning to Coulter, he asked, “Would it be possible for you to go to New Jersey and soupd Wilson on the proposition?” Coulter agreed. Of course, the rest is history. Wil- son was nominated for the presidency in 1912, He was elected President— but he didn’t forget the incident of Coulter’s offering him the presidency of the University of Minnesota. Some time after his inauguration he sent for the man who came East to of- fer him a job, brought him to Wash- ington, and sent him abroad on various m]&:finl for the United States Govern- ment. This is how the scholarly Coulter turn, was a frequent | first came into political prominence. ’Il“lE convenience and economy of Gerber’s Strained Vegetables is obvious.
