Corn Pudding By BERTHA E. SHAFLEIOH Cooking Authority for \EA Service and Columbia University. This dish Is excellent to serve with cold meat, or with a brown sugar sauce it may serve for a simple dessert. It can be made with either ccoked or raw green corn, the latter giving a better flavor. 1 pint grated green corn teaspoon salt 1 quart milk 2 tablespoons butter (melted) M cup sugar 3 eggs (slightly beaten) Mix ail together, turn into a buttered baking dish and bake thirty minutes, having the dish set n a pan of water. If the water does not boil, the pudding bakes without separating, and the custard will be smooth. This is true with all combinations of eggs and milk. (Cut this out and paste it in your cook book)

WOULD IMPROVE HOMES

DR. ANNA HO CHFELDER.

By MARIA'S BALE. Marriage, divorce and sex education will be objects of r>ew State legislation if Dr. Anna Hochfelder, Brooklyn, Democratic candidate for nojnination as State Senator, gains that office. Our greatest reforms and most radical legislation need to be directed along these lines, she believes, and here is the field for the woman politician to work. “The welfare of our nation depends on improvement of home conditions and rearing of better citizens,’’ she declares, “Our laws should provide for sex education for those about to be married. Such education would reduce by three-fourths the applications for divorce. “Every woman, before a marriage license Is Issued, should be required to present evidence she Is skilled In a trade or occupation which would en-

Look What They in Paris Do , Ladies' Ears Bared to View!

By MARGARET ROHE. NEW YORK, Aug. I.—Oh, look who’s here! The female ear Is all ex posed to view. From out its lair of ambush hair it has emerged anew. So long concealed when now revealed all naked, nude and bare, it seems to shrink from public gaze and from the rush of air. Like captives taken from their cells, unused to light of day, the just-emancipated ears most likely

They turned them loose in Paris first They’ll soon be showing here. She wears hers flaunting in the breeze and prophesies this fall will be the era of the ear with ears worn out by all. The. National Hairdressers here with her do not agreo and Mr. Miller who’s their head, says ears will cov ered be. He thinks at first the ears may peep from out their nest of hair

Are we to consider population irrespective of our goal, or are we to work for quality, as we do in breeding a finer type of animal?” Dr. Hochfelder's views are the result of her experience as a wife, mother of two sons, school teacher, probation officer, social worker and attorney.

Short skirts revealed some tragedies —knock knees, bow legs and such —• and now exposure of the ears sure promises as much. For though ’tis true that “ears is ears’’ ’tis true, too, some are tin and some are fan and some are bat and some are Just a sin. But be they large or be they small or be they good or bad, your best ear foremost you must put. It is the latest fad. "Lend me your ears” was asked of folk one ancient Roman day. What Paris now bids done with ears is quite a give-away. • • • When skirts were short and legs were long then ears were cove-ed quite. But now that skirts are coming down and legs are out of sight, it sort of seems to balance things and make proportions right that ears should be unveiled and pushed right out into the light. But ears so long have coddled been, like mushrooms under glass, it’s horrible to contemplate what’s bound to come to pass when first the frosts of winter come to give a fiendish nip to each exposed defenseless ear, uncovered lobe to top. There seems but one to boom the ear-muff trade. ’Twere best to order earmuffs now to match your tailormade. With earmuffs on each dainty ear, goloshes on her feet, the 1923 girl will sure look mighty sweet. And be they muffed or all exposed, uncovered to the light, these new discovered female ears will be an eerie sight. BOYS DRIVEN TO CHURCH ; Paul Rader Says Rolled Hose, Rouge and Bobbed Ilair Cause Converts. By United Neics CHICAGO, Aug. I.—American girls are so forward and so brazen and so immodest and so many other things that they are driving young men to the church in great droves, Paul Rader, evangelist, told his audience at a hot weather revival here. Rader based his theory on the fact that of 200 male converts recently acquired, the great majority had been young men in their teens. “Disgusted with the flapper with her bobbed hair and painted lips and rolled hose,” Rader declared, “Wholesome and clean-minded youth is seek- : lng comfort with God. We can feel | sure now that our young men are not going to allow themselves to be corrupted by perverted womanhood.’* ASSOCIATION MEETS Pittsburgh Operators Consider Invitation in Spite of Statements.

“I’ve made up my mind to put my money on you, old top!” she announced. “When do you want me to go to Brooklea and where’ll I put up? At the King’s Arms? Wot price a widow named Mrs. ’lgglns who keeps to ’er room until she 'ears from you?” “Good! Take a train around seven tonight and I’ll phone when your cue comes.” Miles attended to the check and they rose. Carter and Pierre were hurrying about the kitchen busied With the serving of dinner and as he passed the servants’ dining room Scottie beckoned imperiously, but Miles waved an emphatic dissent and hurried up the back stairs. She scuttled off downstairs and Miles softly entered the sick room and took the chair beside the bed. lie leaned over and spoke gently: “Mr. Drake! You can hear me?” The eye which had turned eagerly toward him at his first word closed swiftly, gratefully and then opened wide. “I meant what I said yesterday. The past is buried and must n'ot be resurrected, but there is one who must be silenced, the one whose name you tried to tell your brother yesterday. I knew—l guessed— but I must have your assurance that I am right. The man you fear, the man who can bring ruin and worse upon you all— Is this he?” Bending more closely over the prostrate form he breathed a name. There was a pregnant pause while Roger Drake’s ej-e seemed to dilate. Then, unwaveringly, Inexorably, the lids closed.

CHAPTER XVII. "Man, but I've news for you!” Scottie exclaimed when Miles came down stairs. "Dick Kemp has found what’s been under our very noses. Do you mind when Rip told us of meeting two men in the garden? Last night they came again ani Dick fr.ghtened them away but not before he’d discovered the spot they were after. We’ll beat them to it tonight, but how we’re to get rid of the lad—!’’ “I'll find a way.” Miles responded briefly. “It’s only the last link in the chaifi, anyway, but it will be best for him and his little bride to be far from this house later tonight “When young Dick meets you tell him to pack his grip and wait with his runabout in the back road till Patricia Joins him.” Miles was passing through the hall when Andrew Drake emerged from the library fuming with exasperation. “Confound that pettyfogging Wells!” he explained to Mss Drake. “He’s coming down on the 10 o'clock train tonight and Insists that I meet both at the station. Wants a private talk." “Sh-hi” Miss Drake warned and vanished up the stairs. Andrew grumblingly following. As Miles turned Patricia appeared in the door of the music room. “I heard!” she whispered, "Oh. Sergeant, why Is Mr. Wells coming and where have you been all day? When is all this dreadful suspense going to end?" “Tonight, for you, my dear young lady,” the detecetive replied. "I want you to go away again now tonight Mr. Kemp will be waiting for you on the back road in his car in an hour and you must take your traveling case and slip out and Join him. He will keep in touch with me and when you come back in a few days it will be to find that all the trouble has passed.” She held both her hands out to him impulsively. “Oh! I have always had faith in you even when I was living a nightmare. You have found the terrible old woman who tried to have me abducted and the man with the tattooed arm?" “Ho will never cross your path again,” Miles replied evasively. “One thing more; not only was your own sanity never in question, but that of your people also.” It was midnight whon Miles and Scottie. equipped with shovels, set to work with a will and soon had a hole waist deep where the floor of the summer house had been. “I’ve struck something, lad,” Scottie announced In an unconsciously lowered voice. Miles leaped down into the excavation beside him and felt about with his hands. “Machinery!” Scottie exclaimed "Rusted and broken as though it had been crushed with a sledge-hammer!” “Our friends hoped it would be in better condition, I think,” Miles responded, Can you guess what it Is?” ” 'Tis not a wee printing press, though I own I’ve had that in mind since you took the counterfeit bill from me."

slowly. “If I had a chance to try to assemble it, now—?” “You're close enough to the truth, old man.” Miles wedged down the lid once more and began heaping the loose dirt back upon it. Put the boards back over the hole as well as you can and follow me!” Scottie obeyed and the two walked to the road where a machine had halted. With its three grimly busi-ness-like occupants the briefest of greetings “were exchanged. “You understand, boys, that you're on a confidential case, and Scottie is here just by accident?” Miles spoke with authority, but there was a note of uncontrollable elation in his tones. “Sure, we understand all right, Serfs eajit,” the burlier of the trio replied with Immense respect. We’re all set and waiting for orders.” “All right, Farrell; you and Marks come with me. I’m going to post you indoors and then get one of the neighbors to join us whom I shall want as a witness. Scottie, jump in and let Barker drive you down to the Mansion House where ] want you to send word up to a Mrs. Higgins that you’ve come to bring her back here. While she isshe is getting ready, call up 130 Brooklea and insist on speaking to the lady of the house; she, too, will be prepared for your call. Tell her Miss Drake is ill and has sent for her. She will use a conveyance of her own to reach here, but Mrs. Higgins will return with you and Barker, and see that you make it snappy.” CHAPTER XVII John Wells was still fully dressed when Miles knocked upon the door of the guest room. After a brief colloquy he descended to the library where he found Enslee Grayle. “My dear sir!’’ He extended a cordial hand to the bewildered naturalist. “This is an unpardonable hour at

What's up now?” “I do want you. Andrew, and you. too. Hobart." The attorney's tones were low. "If you will wait until your sister Joins us—?’’ “Patricia!” The cry came from the stairs and Miss Drake tottered Into the room and fell Into the nearest chair. “She Is gone again! Why Is Mr. Grayle here and what have you to tell us, Mr. Wells?” “Very little. Your new servant, William, is here to explain the situation.” Miles had entered quietly and AnIrew turned with a snarl. “ ’William,’ eh?" He added an oath. “Who the—are you, anyway?" “A special agent employed by a member of this family to protect their interests, sir,” Miles replied, still respectfully. “You, John?” Hobart took a stop forward. “By gad, you’ve gone too far!” “It is the end!” Jerusha Drake bowed her proud head and buried her face in her hands. “I suppose that lunatic upstairs went to you and you saw a chance of making a fat fee out of us, you—

Jack and Jill can pass a very pleasant day, even with tumbling down hill Incidental to its progress, when dressed in comfortable play clothes. The mothers of Jacks and Jills pre fer costumes like these —for Jill a straight unbelted dress with sleeves cut in one with the frock; for Jack, a straight over-all with a plain blouse underneath. Ratine, jersey cioth and pique are popular for practical wear and linen leads for dress-up clothes. Vrey little trimming is used—a bit of hand hemstitching, an embroidered Cower or animal, some cross-stitching or smocking—nothing more than this. Children’s clothes are designed now so that mothers may make and launder them easily and children can wear them comfortably. Practically all the garments shown In children’s shops are extremely simple.

You'll take your medicine the same as me—!” “Are you mad?” The spare, whitehaired figure threw him off with unexpected strength, and turned In offended dignity to Hobart. “Mr. Drake, your brother—t” “He la not his brother!” A nasal, feminine voice wrung with anguish started them all as Ora Hawks slipped through the opened French window from the veranda and pointed an accusing finger. “That man is not Andrew Drake!” At the same moment Maizie Gray, flamboyant even in crisp new widow's weeds, entered the door with Scottie and the Impassive Barker behind her. "Not—not Andrew!” Miss Drake seemed oblivious to the arrival of the trio as she listed astounded and horrified eyes to the face of her old friend. . “Andrew Drake died in Australia three years ago,” Miles said Gravely. “This lady will be able to inform you of the Identity of the Imposter. He indicated Maizie, but she drew herself up with a laugh. ’• ’lm?

Marks! Hero are your men!” Gray struck out blindly, but Marks seized him in an iron grip and Scottie tore off the white wig, disclosing the sleek, close-cropped black hair which more naturally accorded with the culprit’s bright, dark eyes and stalwart, athletic frame. Farrell was watching the man who had posed as Andrew Drake and who had all at once regained control of himself. He stood waiting quietly with a halffcmllo upon his lips. (Continued.)

The Raggedies "The Fuzzywump is on his way back to see him Mamma,” Raggedy Ann told the Bears and Goldiolocks. “But, you see, the Fuzzywump had a very wonderful magic book, and when we all grew hungry, we opened the book at the story of Hansel and Gretel and jumped Into the book so that we could eat the Witch’s candy house.” “Maybe Mamma Bear and I can help you find your way out of the magical book,” Daddy Bear said, as he put his arm around Raggedy Ann. "Some one’s coming!” Mamma Bear said. "Sh-h!” Through the bushes Raggedy Ann saw a little girl with a red cape and hood walking along. In her hand she carried a basket. And as they watched the little girl, who was Red Riding Hood, they saw a great big, large wolf run out of the bushes and speak to her. “Good morning,” the wolf said, “can I help you carry your basket, little Red Riding Hood?” "Oh, no, thank you!” little Red Riding Hood replied. "It is not heavy and Grandmother lives just beyond those trees. lam going to spend the day with her; she is ill and cannot come to see me, so I go to see her.” "Isn’t that nice," the wolf said. “If you will climb upon my back I will carry you.” “I’m afraid I’m to heavy,” laughed Little Red Riding Hood. “No, indeed, you are not,” the wolf replied as he took Red Riding Hood upon his ba=T and came walking right through the bushes up to where the three bears and Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy and the Fuzzywump and Goldielocks sat with the large basket of lunch. “We were just having a picnic, Mister Wolf,” said Daddy Bear. “Won’t you have something to eat? We have cream puffs, ladyfingers, nice cookies and ham sandwiches and pickles.” The Wolf let Riding Hood slide down to the ground and thanked Daddy Bear. “I’d like a cream puff If you have one to spare,” he said. “I’ll run to grandmother and bring her here,” said the wolf as he trotted through the wood. Pretty soon here came Mister Wolf with grandmother on his back. “Now is the time for me to try “Raggedy Andy’s stick,” thought Raggedy

"SOME ONE’S COMING!” MAMMA BEAR SAID. “SHH!” Ann. And she took the little stick and wished that little Red Riding Hood’s grandmother wouldn’t be 111 at all. And she had hardly made the wish before the grandmother was well. “Now we can have a nice, large picnic,” cried the wolf. “For maybe you don’t know it, but there is an ice cream soda spring right behind that large stone.” And sure enough there was. And, with an ice cream soda spring and a large basket of cream puffs and lady fingers and cookies and ham sandwiches and pickles, you can imagine what a nice picnic It was.— Copyright, 1922, by Johnny Gruelle.

DEAUVILLE OFF FOmpSON Arrival of Shah c; Persia Starts Cayeties of French Watering Plane. By United Net cs DEAUVILLE, France, Aug. I. With the arrival of the Shah of Persia for a month’s stay, the real “high season” at France's most popular watering place has begun. Most of Paris seems to be here, not to mention well-known Americans seen in the gay throngs. Though the real season made a sad start with a week-end rain, the vast crowd, driven indoors by the unsea sonable weather, kept the gambling houses busy. All thirty of the ohemin de fer tables were crowded with patrons, mostly playing for small stakes, however. Even Lord Glenconner contented himself with $8 bets. Plungers seem equally as scarce on the beach as in the Casino. The only sensation on the beach was afforded by a pretty girl in a black bathing suit trimmed in pierrot style with large, fluffy red pompoms, which she was very careful not to get wet. The beach at the fashionable bathing hour presented a vivid kaleidoscopic scene of brightly colored bathing caps. Among the idlers on the sand were noticed Baroness Derlanger, formerly Mrs. Peter Cooper Hewitt of New York, and her husband, Prince Caraman, Marquis San Miguel and Herbert Pulitzep, the New York publisher. Interest is centered in the forthcoming polo games. Herman J. Harjes has just arrived from Philadel phia and will soon be seen dashing up and down the field swinging his mallet against such players as Capt. Freddy Guest, Prince Radzlwlll and Marquis De Villavieja. King Alfonso, it is hoped, wJI participate in the games later. Pending the big international games, the visitors are being treated to dally scrub games. Mile. Lenglen, world’s woman tennis champion, played an exhibition match.' The next big attraction Is the opening of" the Dolly Sisters' show at the Gala Casino.

AUTHORESS WILL El LEGTURES Veteran of Matrimonial Failures to Tell How Marriage Should Be Conducted. By United Setc NEW YORK, Aug. I.—As a veteran of two matrimonial failures and the author of a book which has hopes of being suppressed into prominence. Miss Jane Burr, a feminist of 40. daughter of a St. Louis millionaire named Guggenheim, speaks a few words of advice on love and the somewhat related topic of marriage. She is about to sail for England, where she is best known, on a cruise of the world. In the course of which the shop girl of London and the trial wife of the remote Tropic Island, will doubtless hear that God has failed as a. matchmaker. Confessing that both of her own attempts were botched. Miss Burr might seem to be an incompetent authority. But she says she lias kept her ears open, and if she should ever tell a portion of what wives in St. Louis and Chicago have told her there’d be no end of a scandal—secrets about the technically virtuous state of being wherein husbands and wives are only practically faithful. It was Miss Burr’s novel, “The Passionate Spectator” which was Just recently favored with the unfriendly attention of New York reform agencies, after It had received somewhat the same sort of helpful notice in London, where It was first published. Her “Letters of a Dakota Divorcee" and "The Glorious Hope” also evoked what is known as "comment” and her new novel, "That Woman,” gives promise of .similar vitality.
