The author enters into the practical de- monstration of the new way; food tables, recipes and menus are numerous and en- lightening and will prove exceedingly help- ful not only to busy housekeepers, but also to all persons who desire to get the greatest benefit and fullest enjoyment from the dally meals. A most interesting and “practical fea- ture of this work is the clear and dls- eriminating instructions given for the ap- plication of heat in preparing food. From the author's point of view it becomes evi- dent that the present mode of preparing food is mot only unnecessarily laborious, but that it Involves great waste of the raw material and puts a severe tax upon the digestive organs of the consumer.

[WHAT A HUSBAND OUGHT 70 BE—BY THREE GIRLS Trio of Young Women Draw Up Specifications of Kind of Men They Would Marry. City License Inspector Schnelder sympa- thizes with the men of the west who need wives, also with the single men of Omaha who want good helpmates, but do not seem able to cut them out from the bunch of handsome and clever maidens who throng the streets of the city morning and even- Ing. Schnelder was glving voice to his ldeas in the presence of three young women em- ployed in the city hall, who shall here re- main nameless, when the girls took up his suggestion with approval and proceeded to put down their views concerning pros- pective husbands. Following are the views on the kind of husband they would like, as written by themselves: Number 1.—My husband must be able to build the fires, but he must not dictate how I do my work. He must be able to sup- port me well, and must treat me with the same respect he would any other woman. He must be able to stay at home at least one evening a week, and must not chew to- bacco, and must be a thorough man, not a sissy (with “not” underscorad.) Number 2—My husband must be at least 6 feet, 11 inches, with broad shoulders and well built, He should have blue eves, dark hair, slightly tinged with gray. He must be a man that makes an honest living, and make enough to keep a wife comfortably. He also must be of an affectionate nature, and must not be a “cheap skate.” Number 3—The ideal man for me ought to be of medium height and well bullt, have dark eyes and hair; do not object to a gray tinge. He must be able to make a good living, and should have an affec- tionate disposition, and be fairly liberal In his ideas of the cost of keeping up a home. Two of the girls are of Irish-American stock, while the name of the other would seem to Indicate that her paternal ances- tors were French. They are held In high esteem as to character and accomplish- ments, and Mr. Schnelder belleves they would mage most excellent wives. He will endeavor to bring them into touch with kmen needing wives who measure up to the qualifications set forth in their descriptions. “They d-7't want much,” says Schneider, “and they deserve the very best of mates."” BRANDEIS OPENING MARCH 3 First Performance at New Theater Will Be ‘“Arsene Lupin,” the Detective-Thief Drama. The Brandels theater is to have its first performance March 3, and the opening at- traction will be “Arsene Lupin,” the much talked of detective-thief drama, with Wil- |llam Courtenay and Doris Keane in the leading roles.
