•Each year as the home , service
bureaus of the newspapers and maga
zines expand, we are furnished with
better and better information about
how to prepare commonplace foods in
appetizing ways.
And added to this service we may
have the educational booklets of
manufacturers who maintain staffs of
chefs to invent new ways of using
staple foods prepared by them.
Do we make full use of these helps,
I wonder? Do we send quickly for
the food bulletins offered by home
publications—or do we put it off
until another day? Do we clip cou
pons from the leading magazines and
add the free tecipe books to our own
meager store?
bet us not neglect these opportuni
ties to enlarge our cooking program.
For the pri^e of a stamp or two we
may fill the kitchen files with home
making helps and receipts that will
be of invaluable help in menu planning
and preparing meals. And how the
family will rejoice! Variety is just
as spicy as it ever was, you know.
“Ehsemble forever”—the stylists
seem to insist—without a word of pro
test from DS, since their expressions
of the mode are so charming.
From early spring ensembles of
wool the vogue advances to late spring
and all-summer models that are ex
tremely practical, for all their dainti-
itess;
Among the most interesting combi
nations aie thos$ using, plain and
printed faille, or polka-dotted fabrics
reversed—the dark ground and light
dots being used for the coat and the
light ground with dark spots for the
overblouse.
The plain satin ensemble is also ex- „
tremely chic, as is shown in the accom
panying photograph. Palest honey-'
beige satin has been used for frock and
full length coat, and notice particular-
i
ly the new collar, with its long sailor
tie of darker beige.
Simplicity can be veny dressy—if one
chooses satin for the summer ensem
ble.
Chicken Mousse.
A
This is a splendid recipe to use
as the main dish for Sunday night
tea—when guests are expected:
Dissolve Vi package of lemon-
f.avored gelatin in a cup of boiling
chicken broth. When^cold, beat with
rotary egg beater until consistency of
whipped cream. Mix with it a cup
diced chicken, a cup diced celery, 1!
chopped pimiento, a tablespoon vine
gar, Vi teaspoon salt, a shake of cay
enne. Fold in a half cup whipped
cream. Mold and chill until firm. Gar-
jiish with lettuce and olives.

Wash berries before hulling and

Paraffining is the easiest and best

How Do You Flare Today?
The^ ipost capricious of the modern

of the skirt remains straight. Then

High Colors Lead.
If you must be quiet and retiring,
there are the neutral tones of grey and
beige, of course. But Paris says—Be
gay. Be not afraid of high colors, but
choose them wisely, selecting each
with special care that it may be in
harmony with your wardrobe as a
whole—and also be one of “your”‘
shades.

STARCHES.
Much of our food may be classified
as starchy. We could not get along
without a certain^ amount of the car
bohydrate. It is only with the excess * covere( j with an inch of soil on t
of starch that I attempt to deal here.
Common starches are rice, potatoes,
bread and cereals that are marketed
under trade names. The admixture of
sugar makes the starchy foods more
tempting. We eat five or six times as
much starch as we~really need. Most
any well-set dinner table has four or
five starches, when one would be abun
dant. The well-living housekeeper sets
on her table two kinds of bread, al
ways potatoes, maybe Lima beans, or
baked beans, cake, pie with starch
crusts, and i;ice pudding occasionally!
If I were permitted to hang a motto
above the American dinner-table—one
thatwoulc/ do good—I would certainly
pijpclaim. “One starch—ncjt four.”
Whten too much starch is piled into

is the largest gland in the body. It

overplus is deposited about the body;
we become fat, mushy, flabby in mus

with ballast. We have all sorts of
“liver trouble.” Physicking does nq
good—not even temporarily. Cuttin
down the starch is the only ratioqhl
way. If we do not—then nature makes
us sick—and we are compelled to diet
in order to get well—and nine times

FLOWERS FOR POOR SOIL.
If you are confronted with poor soil
in the place you v\ ; sh to glow flower,
you will have to select those varieties
that will succeed in spite of the soil
they find themselves in. At one time^
I had a spot in a garden I was build
ing that was nothing but an ash |dle
T
did not wish to take the time to replace
the soil, so I planted Nasturtiufns and
they grew and bl. omed to perfection.
If ^/ou plant Nasturtiums iri rich soi)
they will all go to foliage jmd be a to
tal loss.
Iwill mention just ii few annuals
that may be depended upon to give
you bloom in most apy soil that may
be worked at all. They are all of the
easiest culture and may be seeded right
where you want /them to bloom and
with a little car/ to see that they get
water enough they will bloom very
nicely. Here is the list: Portulaca,
Verbena, leg Plant, Sweet Alyssum,
Cocksdomb/Kbchia, Nasturtium and
Eachr’or Button.
If your soil is poor the Thing to do
’s to mpke ’t better. Most any soil
may W impre .ei by adding plenty of
leaf mould ot compost, and if neither
of those i r > available y.u may add a
itoral supply of pulverized Peet Moss.
o. j ou v dl find that constant culti-
\/,tion v,.T help your soil. If you are
ble to obtain some w'ell-rotted barn
yard manure P will help the soil won
derfully.
If you have a lot of any size and the
soil is poor you may in a period of two
years improve it so that you would
hardly know it. This may be done
with green manuring. Have it plow r ed
early in the spring and plant it with
cow peas or soy beaivs; when these are
Just a Cup of

^ (CopyrtieM.) - —
A FADED picture of pansies In a
blue cup. jo Florence Turner it
itood for her unhappiness; it was the
revelation of a husband’s neglect and
the end of romance.
The wife stood before the picture
which had been put aside in the attic
long ago and there came back to her
the days when she had painted it.
Cambridge had stood by wondering
when she applied the finishing touches.
He had even said that he hoped—she
remembered the delightful fear which
came into his eyes—thajt she would
not let ah art career stand in the way
of. - . . Then he had proposed and
the picthre was the prized omameni
In the little house that was theirs in
those blissful days before there were
money and success and—she sighed—
the disillusionment of years.
* Now the picture was in the attic.
Cambridge Turner, the slim youth of
other days, had filled out and was the
picture of a prosperous merchant. She
wondered how she looked to him, how
it had happened that these changes
had taken place. It had all been so
gradual and neither had realized.
“The day he let me take the pic
ture down,” she said, “must have been
the turning point. “I thought he
would miss it, ask for it, and he never
did.” Florence Turner raised her
apron to her eyes and wept. Sudden
ly she stopped, stood erect and defiant
as if making a resolve.
“You are too old for romance,” she
told herself. “It time for you to bo
sensible. Cambridge is a model hus
band. Maybe he is too good for you.”
“All the same,” she said after a
little while, “I must get rid of this
picture.”
. * The rummage sale of the Ladies’.
Aid was enriched with the oil painting
which had once held so high a place
in the Turner home and heartSi With
bonnets, shawl?, vases and books it
was put in the windbw to turn its
faded face to tire passing crowd. And
Florence Turner, who had left it there,
walked slowly home making brave re
solve that she would act hereafter as
a sensible woman of fort^.
Cambridge Turner was a little late
for dinner. When he qppeared it was
with a shame-faced a I
“Flo,” he said, Irritatingly, “I did
something Jtoday Which, maybe you
won’t understand.!^ There was almost
a ho\ Mi appeal/in his eyes.
“You know/’/ne apologized, “I have
always left tire decorations of the
house to you, ever since we left the
little place* The furniture and the
pictures, Flo, I have let you choose
them, ha/en’t I?” .
“Cambridge Turner,” the wife inter
rupted, “what have you been up to
now
Visibly he wilted. Then, with an
efTbrt, he summoned strength. •*'. 1
“I bought something today that 1
want to have In the house. It reminds
me of something else you took away.
You know, that picture you made of
the pansies, the picture I liked so well
and you thought wasn’t good enough
for the new hou?e? Well, I found an
other, almost like it.” He was pitiful
in his lack of ease, putting a youth's
plea of this wife ,who had turned ro
Inance out for the luxuries of wealth.
“It isn’t the same and it will never
mean so much, but really, it js almost
like the picture you painted and 1
thought, I thought you would not mind
my having it in my room.”
For a moment he was silent. In her
happiness at discovery she w ate lied
him, afraid the moment would end.
