A tired business man to me always means a jaded type of individual who goes to the lightest of musical com- edies and is amused for a brief space of time, and who wears a perpetually weary expression. I never knew that Clyde was that kind of a man until he married. It's strange how men develop these unde- sirable traits as soon as they feel that they can be natural. It's like the re- version to the primitive that we read about in sociology. Even I, and I am rather hard to deceive, never sus- ected Clyde of stodgy qualities. Father used to say: “Yes, I like Clyde; he's a good fel- low. Of course, 1 don't think he'll ever amount to a great deal.” And then it would be my cue to become indignant and to ask what he meant. That was when 1 was rather young. Clyde was paying,me a great deal of attention and bring- ing me a great deal of very good candy. 1 discovered that | didn't want Clyde when he be to make love and Clyde went his way and [ went mine, Then I heard that Clyde was to be married. “Such a nice girl” people said, “and so well suited to him.” And T just kept still, because I knew that if she were suited to Clyde she would have to be a different type of girl | | | | kifts, would it be entirely proper for me to | make something for her?

Some girls don’t require anything more. I really believe that this girl is happy. Perhaps she should be. “Well, Clyde is married, and has a nice girl,” father said the other even- ing at dinner. “Yes, she makes him a good wife,” mother agreed. “Yes, it must be thrilling to live with Clyde,” I observed loftily. “Of all the stagnant kinds of existence, commend me to a life of three meals . day with Clyde.” “Why, Anne,” observed father, slyly, “you’re not jealous, are you?” And I just kept still.

Then put it down in cold water and bring slowly to the boil, keeping it simmering gently until cooked; but be sure not to let it cook too quickly, or it will be { tough and hard. If the cabbage is to be cooked with the ham, the meat should be put on thirty minutes earlier than otherwise and taken up | before the vegetable is added to the water, because the water must be | boiling rapidly for the vegetable, and “h“ would spoil the ham. Keep it boiling until the cabbage is cooked, | | then draw to one side and put in the meat again to get quite hot. | A two and one-half inch thick | slice, which is to be broiled or baked, | should be treated as follows, and served with caramel sauce: Trim and wipe the slice of ham | with a damp cloth and put in a pan | with enough cold water to barely | cover it. Beil very gently for forty minutes, then take out and stick five or six cloves into the fat. Put into a baking tin and dust very lightly with pepper, and cover with two tablespoonsful of flour mixed with one-half a cup of brown sugar.

Then remove the bone carefully and put in a sauce- pan with enough cold water to cover it, together with one carrot and one onion, clean and chopped, and six peppercorn and one teaspoofiful of mixed herbs, tied together in a bit of cheesecloth. Simmer gently for two and a hall hours, when the ham should be quite tender. Chop up one | shallot and fry in one-half ounce of butter, not allowing it to get brown.

Fry the slice of ham and cut into small neat dice.
