This is just whet is done when the boiling water is forced up through the tiny tube in the coffee pot and drips through the holes in the perforated coffee con- tainer of a percolator coffee pot. Some cooks contend coffee should be boiled when made in an ordinary pot, while others are ‘equally sure that this the flavor. The old-fashioned way to allow the coffee to boil up three times. Between each time the pot was removed from the heat long enough to reduce the heat before bringing the con- tents again to the boiling temperature. As will be seen, the coffee boiled very little—just enough to extract the es- sence—after which the pot.was drawn to the back of the stove and the con- tents allowed to settle. Pouringa table- spoonful of cold water down the spout bas the tradition of settling coffee. It clears the spout from any e veed nore delicious coffee can be made coffee. The egg is mixed with the ground coffee in the pot and then the water (hot or cold) is poured into the pot and the boiling up method is owed. As the egg binds the grounds into a compact mass, four or five times of boiling up are better than three to et the good of the coffee. For small nilies one egg will do for two or three flee infusions. Beat the egg enough nix it and use part each day, keep- the rest in a cool place and well ed.

Therefore, when a man wants wife who will be a5 circumspect as Mrs. Caesar and who will never look at another man between the altar and the grave, he selects a little ingenue who has been brought up under a strict mother. Or if a man desires an economical wife who will save his money, he picks out a poor girl who has never had a pair of silk stockings and to whom every dollar looks as big as a cartwheel. Or, if he wishes a domestic wife he selects a girl who has done the family cooking ever since she was knee high to a gas range. I;OR, argues the man, if I marry a little, unsophisticated girl who has seen nothing of life and knows nothing of the world, I will not only look the grand sheik to her, but she will have a horror of anything so wicked as a flirtation and will never be tempted to have romantic yearn- ings after some slick-haired cake-eater who doesn’t weigh half as much as I do. Or he will say to himself, if T marry a domestic girl I shall be sure of feasting on angel's food and secure to myself a good cook Who cannot give notice and leave. LL of which is good logic, but somehow women &nd logic no more mix than oil and water, and wives seldom run true to their girlish forms Moreover, it is never what a woman has had that she goes on wanting to the end of the chapter. The thing she is crazy for is the thing she has never had. So, if T were & man and wanted a wife who would be absolutely faith- ful to me and who wouldn’t turn her head even to glance sidewise at the handsomest motion picture hero who ever had a close-up on the screen, I shouldn’t marry & girl who never had a beau or had a man make love to her or try to kiss her. N the contrary, I should pick out a girl who had been & riot with the men, & girl who had had men struggle for her favor, who had had to cut her dances into mincemeat to make them go around: a girl who could have married any one of a dozen men; a girl who had thought her- self in love several times and then found out better; a girl who had been fed up on sentiment and romance. If I wanted a thrifty and economical wife I would select the girl who was the daughter of well-to-do parents or else one who made a good salary herself. No girl knows so little the value of money as the one who has never had a dollar of her own to spend. No woman is so wasteful as the one who suddenly comes into a little money. No woman is so mad for pretty clothes and furs and jewels and cars as the one who has hungered and starved for them all her life. Having fine clothes is a hundred times more important to her than it is to the girl who has always had them DOROTHY DIX. (Copyright, 1931.) SCREEN ODDITIES BY CAPT. ROSCOE FAUCETT.
