WOMEN’ Late Damsons a S FEATURES. Satisfactory Recipes Appear to Be Scarce For Plumlike Fruit Quinces Fare Better; Many Unusual and Delicious Suggestions for Their Preparation BY BETSY CASWELL. ITH the preserving season drawing to its grand finale, there is still time for the thrifty and enterprising housewife to make the most of the late damsons and quinces that are making their appearsnce in the local markets, I hear from many sources that there seems to be a scarcity of good damson recipes in all the cook books. I have looked into the matter—only to discover that this state of af- fairs is indéed the case, and that the succu- lent damson has been shamefully neglected. Quince have fared better in the long run; there are several very delicious and unusual recipes for their “put- ting up.” ‘With both quinces and damsons (as indeed with any fruit intended for Jam or jelly) the quality must be per- fect, with no blemishes- to mar the Jooks or flavor of the result. It is ‘wise to wipe each quince with a damp ¢loth and to wash the damsons well in cold water before starting real action, DAMSON PLUM CONSERVE. 2 pounds damsons. 1 orange. 12 cup raisins. 14 cup walnut meats. 3 cups sugar. 2 cups water. Pit and halve the damsons. Cut in small pieces. Cook the chopped orange (peel and all) with one pint of water for 20 minutes.

RQUINCE PRESERVES. One pound quince, prepared. | Four cups water. One and one-half cups sugar. Peel the fruit, cut in quarters, re- tmove core and gritty material sur- rounding it. Make a sirup of the sugar and water. Cook the fruit in the sirup for 1 hour, or until a de- cided red color eppears. Allow to stand for 24 hours. Drain sirup and add ! pound of sugar.

BY ANGELO PATRL Mo’xm looked up from the letter she was reading and sald: “Mary is coming for a week and she says she will bring Julia.” “Ah,” said grandma. “Has she got to bring her?” asked father. “Gee. If that kid is coming I'm going to go over to Bill's and stay until she’s gone,” put in Harold, the | junior high school Iad who remem- | bered Julia’s last visit as a nightmare | of “I'm going. Take me. Give it to f me. I will, I won't,” interspersed with s, screams and slaps. | “Maybe she will be better this time,” | said mother doubtfully. i “And maybe pigs will fly in the | sky,” scoffed Harold. “I had been thinking of visiting Charlotte,” said grandmother thought- fully. “I might go next week and take Ellen with me. What do you | say?” “I say that if everybody is going out of the house and leave me with Mary and Julia that it is downright selfish,” said mother, her voice trembling with something between tears and laughter, “Dad will be with you,” said Harold. “Not any more than I can help,” said that gentleman grimly. “My shins still wear the dents she put in them last time. Tell Mary, why don’t you, that she is welcome, but that we think it unhealthy down here this time of year for Julie.” A note of hope had crept into father’s voice. “You know perfectly well that I cannot do that. If she comes she must bring the child. I can't close my door in an old friend's face.” “I could close it in Julia’s face. Just give me the chance, ma.” “You needn't talk, Harold. You're not perfect—" “No, I'll admit it. But dad can't say I ever kicked nicks in his shins. Speak up, dad. Speak for your abused offspring.” Nobody wants to have a spoiled child near him. The hotel keepers dread them; servants won't stay where they are; relatives evade hav- ing them visit; doctors and nurses suffer them, but not gladly. No doors aré open to spolled children. That thought ought to be enough to make young mothers thoughtful and ex- ceedingly careful about rearing their children to live peaceably with others. Living is & matter of co-operation, and little children cannot escape its obligations. Grandfather’s nap is to be respected; grandmother’s knitting basket is to be sacred; auntie's nerves must be regarded and doors must be shut softly in consequence. Mother gets tired and must be allowed to rest. Other little children's things must be used with care and never without permission. In short, the rights and feelings of other people must be respected if the child him- self is to have any degree of comfort and happiness in life. It is possible to rear a child with such an attitude and not make a martyr of him. All one asks is a reasonable regard for the rights and feelings of other people. That would insure a happier and more successful future for the child. Even though you don’t like spiders you've probably often admired the beauty of their cobwebs.

There are so many delightful and interesting patterns in nursery paper—it is truly difficult to make a choice. One of the more unusual is & paper of ivory background with an all-over pattern of nursery figures framed in a graceful floral design. The design is bright red—a child’s most-loved color. With ivory-colored furniture and curtains of glazed white | chintz bound with red it would cer- tainly make a striking room for the tiny tot. The growing child, especially a girl in her early teens, shows a preference for flowery papers and so, deviating from the general, let her have a more dramatic and individual influence in her boudoir—she will never forget it. Use a floral sectional paper. Produc- tions of this kind are generally made in four strips and are adapted to vary- ing conditions by having all parts in- terchangegble, thereby reducing the possibilities of a repeat to a small de- gree, presenting to the observer an ever-changing panorama of interest- ing floral combinations. Shown on this page is a creation called “Garden of Flowers,” showy delphinium, dainty Canterbury bells, foxglove, pinks and other old-fashioned flowers combined in a garden scene which gives & most colorful and striking individuality. If daughter, however, is inclined to be more conservative, a paper with dainty bouquets of posies on a solid field of blue or rose may be more to her liking. If she has a small room, we suggest the smart new striped paper—alternate strips of silver and white, or a fine pencil atripe of black alternating with white and some color that she wants to carry out in the room. In any event either of these would give a sense of spaciousness and ;ould allow a wide choice of furnish- gs. Cook’s Corner BY MRS. ALEXANDER GEORGE. PLANNING FOR TWO. DINNER MENU. Rice and Cheese.

I guess I loved my | | husband ss much as any | ! man ever was loved, but to- day we are strangers because he shut me out of his life. He never talks to | me. Never speaks unless spoken to. Never tells me any of his plans. I know less of his affairs than a stranger, but on the outside I hear he | is quite a chatterbox, and when friends come to our house he monopo- lizes the conversation. I am not in- cluded in these talking sprees, so I have quit talking to him. I tried being very affectionate to him, but it was like adoring a stick of wood, and now I am cold toward him. I don't think there is any other woman, but if there is, she is welcome to him. But why do you suppose he married me? WONDERING WIFE. Answer—Many another woman, who has & husband like yours, asks herself question and finds no answer to it. Indeed, why men marry is one of the cross-word puzzles that nobody can solve, for apparently a large num- ber of men commit matrimony merely to repent it. * ok x ¥ 'HIS seems such an unnecessary cruelty to some poor, innocent woman to take her away from her happy home or her good job just to make her miserable. For no woman is in & more unfortunate position than the one who is tied for life to some man who doesn’t love her, who isn’'t kind to her and who takes out on her his spite at not being free and having to support a family, and his grievance against life in general. ‘Why does the man marry, for in- stance, who hasn’'t an ounce of do- mesticity in his nature, and who wants to always be going places and doing things and is bored to death at his own fireside? There are plenty of men like that who clap on their hats the minute dinner is over and fare forth to the club or to the theater or & prize fight or to play poker with the boys, anywhere to do anything except spend the evenings with their wives, R 'HE woman who is married to a man like that spends her long, lonely evenings wondering why he did it. If he didn't want a home, why did he go to the expense of es- tablishing one? If he didn't enjoy his wife's society, why did he pick her out for a life companion? If he wanted to be free to go off with the boys every evening, why didn't he stay that way? Why,did he take & girl out of & happy, cheerful home circle and dump her down in & house by her lonesome? Why didn't he let her marry some other man who would have given her the companionship she craved? And echo answers why? e Why does the stingy man, the man who begrudges the very food his wife and children eat and what it costs to support them, marry? He knows beforehand that it costs as much to set up a family as it does to set up a yacht, and if he isn't willing to pay the price, why doesn’t he stay single and keep his money for himself in- stead of marrying and raising cain over the bills? It keeps his wife guessing, but she never guesses the answer, Why does & man marry a woman he trusts so little that he never dis- cusses his business with her, or who bores him s0 much he can find noth- ing to say to her? Why does a man marry a woman who apparently isn't & single thing he wants in a wife and with whom he never speaks except to find fault? Why does & man marry & woman except that he loves her and enjoys her and admires her? Nobody knows. Least of all the wife. * kK % EAR MISS DIX: I am engaged to a young man who is working hard and denying himself everything so that he can buy things for our home, but there are times when he is so cross with me it makes me very blue and unhappy. After he has said cruel things to me he will come back the next day and say he is sorry, that he is tired from overwork or his nerves are shot to pieces or that I drove him to say what he did by being unhappy. This has happened 50 many times that I am beginning to think I am getting on his nerves or something, and won- dering what he will do after we are married. Will he treat me differently then? PUZZLED.

It is not his virtues, but his temperament that makes or mars her happiness.

(Copyright. 1935.) Spe:c—l.l—Eet& Its Beauty In Childhood Avoiding Attentions When Motive May Seem Selfish. BY EMILY POST. "Dm MRS. POST: Why do you | lay so much stress on a child’s | pronunciation of words? It would seem to me that the instincts of courtesy implanted in childhood are of far deeper importance.” Answer—I do not for a minute mean to detract from the importance of | courtesy, but courtesy, being largely | & matter of understanding the point | of view of others, is something that is learned little by Jittle at every age. The only time when the effortless perfection of beautiful speech can be acquired is in earliest childhood. I have written this before, but please let me say again, to those of you who were born in a foreign country, do, I beg of you, talk to your little children in your mother tongue. Not only because knowledge of more than one language is an outstanding requirement of culture, but because the more sounds a little child's flexible tongue can pronounce and his super-sensitive ear can perceive the more flexible and beautiful will his | English be. The inability of the adult to pronounce & foreign language without a trace of accent is partly lack of tongue flexibility, but to greatest extent it is the result of an undeveloped sense of hearing. Do you know any foreigner whose English has not a trace of accent? If you do, | it is a thousand chances to one that he spoke English fluently by the time he was 3. If not, then he has the language sensitiveness of about one person in a hundred thousand. “Dear Mrs. Post: When one of my woman teachers takes her place at the lunch table at which perhaps only I, or with several other girls are seated, am I, or at least one of us, expected to pull out her chair, and all of us rise? This teacher holds an important position in school, although she isn't very old.” Answer—You might properly do this if she takes the chair next to you and every one at table should at least make the gesture of rising at her place until the teacher is seated, but’ if one of you were to make a practice of going around the table to hold her chair, you might give the impression that you were making up to the teacher, which is always a bad repu- tation to acquire. In other words, be polite in every close contact, but don’t do things that conspicuously exag- gerate any attentiveness to one who can be of advantage to you. In other words, be polite to every one, but don't single out an influential person and be over-polite to her (or him) alone, “Dear Mrs. Post: I am going to invite & boy to stay with us for sev- eral days and wonder how I can avoid making him spend any money during his visit.” Answer—Make a point of taking your meals at home and make en- gagements for him that do not include the possibility of his being made host. If tickets are required, buy them be- forehand. If he wants to buy & big box of candy, tell him you are on a diet and can have only one ice cream cone a day, After all, a little forethought and a little tact, plus a little plain sense, ought to solve the problem easily enough. The only difficulty 18 in avoiding letting him suspect you are trying to keep his pocketbook intact. “Dear Mrs. Post: I have been told that finger bowls are going out of fashion. Is this true?” Answer—Of course not. They are always put at the places, ‘either with or following the dessert plates. For that matter, they should also be proffered whenever fruit or broiled lobster or any other smeary food has been held in the fingers.. (Copyrisht. 'l.) Sihe . WOMEN'S FEATURES.

OTING DAUGHTER — The contour beginning to sag a bit cannot be firmed very quickly. With persistent ex- ercise and patting there may be a slight improvement. Certainly the treatment is warranted, even if it keeps the condition from getting ‘worse. ‘When the muscles lose their elastic- ity, they have a tendency to droop more and more, and patting, chin- binding and exercise help to restore the resiliency.

See to it that your mother uses a little rouge, on the cheeks—never low down. She can also use a little mascara and eye- shadow (to match her eyes). This will focus attention to the top of her face, thus calling it away from the jawline.

AI727-B BY BARBARA BELL. No. 1727-B. OME very new and smart de- tails are incorporated in the design of this smart frock. There is the one-sided closing of the skirt, completely divorced from the center front closing of the blouse. This is a bit of trickery much used in the new mode. Designers have grown weary of equally balanced effects; some closings begin at the shoulder and proceed in a slanting line to the other side of the skirt. Some models are trimmed on only one side, coats and suits are buttoned far off center metric line to create diversion of detail. Leg o' mutton sleeves are used ef- fectively in this dress. Large at the top, they taper toward the wrist in traditional manner. The collar is small and round, with two tabs and button to trim the front. There is a panel from shoulders to hem in back, giving nice long lines and a bit of interest to the piain back. Plain little frocks of velveteen in deep, rich colors are important this season. Dark green, blue, garnet, rust and soft, warm tones of brown are much liked. Thin wools are equally nice and they are more often than not very gay in color. Silks, heavy and dull, are good for simple frocks like this one.
