You can pay a man no finer compliment than to say to him: “Certainly I re member you. You are John F.

Here, indeed, was a high compli- ment to the poct in bis faithful and you said to yourself, “Jones, John F. Jones of Milwaukee.” It is all so simple that ft is difficult to make people believe it requires no special gift or miraculous power. Some people may have a gift for re membering names and faces, but the men who do it most successfully are those who have learned to employ | this simplest of all systems. The man whom you remember says to himself. “He remembered me.” | He feels proud of the fact, and is | kindly disposed toward you. His friendship may be very valuable to you. You can remember him if you really care to do 80. novel unless it can be shown that the attitude of the author has colored falsely the picture which he paints. Nor is the question of & book of this kind to be settled with any smug satisfaction about the superority of the city to the rural center, These are matters beside the mark. The service. of “Main Street” lies in the writer's refusal to satls- itself, any more than it stops sim- ply at being a source of énter- tainment for those whe. used to be of the small town and now are haps uncomplimentary picture minder of the fact that mines of material, ready for the eye that cah see and the pen that por. tray, are at hand in many other quarters. The farm, the city afd the suburban town still await their turn in treatment of the “Main Street” character. The Meat Failure ITTLE_Mrs. Merridale that morning had purchased for roasting a cheaper cut of meat which she thought represented a decided saving. ~and the way out failures in Goking: he Meat hy Fairco FAIRCO WITH ROAST MEAT To make a tender, well flavored and juicy oven roast from a cheap cut of meat spread mee with FAIRCO, sprinkle with salt and pepper and put into hot even. After twenty minute: reduce heat and continue roasting until tender. Baste frequently with the melted FAIRCO ia the pari, adding a little water, if necessary. But, what a total loss when it came to the table—loss of money, appetite, and her own cooking pride. What was the matter? Simply, the little lady failed to recognize the fact that the cheaper and more widely used For Everyday Success FAIRCO is a glistening white fat of creamy consistency. cuts of meat are often too dry. To be tender, juicy and full flavored, they require basting with the proper fat—not any fat—but the proper fat. That is important! The Way Out Next time you prepare any kind of a roast, make it a de- cided success by basting with FAIRCO, the new cooking fat. This is why: FAIRCO imparts to meats a lusciousness which is often lacking whén they leave the butcher. Not only that but FAIRCO brings out and develops the natural flavor of the meat, giving to cheaper cuts an appetizing goodness possessed ordinarily only by the more expen- Wholly vegetable, it has no odor or flavor of its own, but how it does bring out and develop the flavor of every- “thing for which it is used! It does not absorb food flavors or odors, and so may be strained and used over and ovet again. The kitchen remains free from smoke, because FAIRCO does not smoke at the usual frying Even the can in which FAIRCO comes is different— a sanitary container with a clean ‘friction, cover which can be removed and replaced at will without using a can opener. Ask your grocer for FAIRCO today. Forget cooking you again.’ © On the other band, it Is a disap- nt to him and a handicap to a ieee OOo mols | “Your tace is familiar, but I can’t —psiplowangga tne nanit| .. Dr Sherman L.
