WINTER VEGETABLES "| O matter how large a supply of canned vegetables most housewives have on hand, there are ; days when nothing but the so-called “winter vegetables" meet requirements. Winter beets carefully cooked and seasoned vl6 with the succulent beets of early summer and furnish the I needed mineral salts for the winter diet. Winter beets need long, slow cook- ' ing. The fibers are tough and not , easily broken down. The beets should : be smooth and without the tiny tough | roots covering them. These are old i beets of long, slow growth which no i amount of cooking will make tender, i Allow four hours for cooking winter , beets. If the vegetables are not ten- ! der by that time they never will be, ; and if tender before needed they are ; easily reheated in their sauce. Wash well to remove all dirt, but no not break the skin. Put on to cook in boiling water. Boil slowly until tender. Plunge into cold water and slip skins. Piquant beets make an ideal vegetable to serve with corned-beef hash. Piquant Beets Four medium sized beets, two tablespoons butter, one tablespoon sugar, one teaspoon salt, two tablespoons i lemon juice, one tablespoon minced onion, one-eighth teaspoon mustard seed, two whole cloves. Boil beets, slip skins and chop very fine. Put in a hot serving dish and pour over the sauce. To make sauce—Melt butter, add sugar, salt, mustard seed, cloves and onion and cook over a low fire until the onion is a pale straw color. Add lemon juice, stirring constantly and i Qpok five minutes. Strain thrcsigh a j fine wire strainer over beets. Salsify or oyster plant Is a delii clous winter vegetable when properly cooked. This vegetable requires speI cial treatment to have It at Its best. Wash the roots well and scrape. Drop immediately Into acidulated water, to which a little flour has been added. This prevents the roots from discoloring and makes the finished dish- more appetizing. The water is prepared in the following proportions---to one quart of cold water add one tablespon flour and two tablespoons vinegar. Creamed salsify is delicious with poultry.

Hy XEA Service |—~j TCHISON, Kas., Dec. *7.— Vj. Judgte L. F. Chew of police ** court here is no respecter of persons when it comes to enforcing anti-speed laws. Recently h> declared war dn those who love to “step on it,” with an accompanying warning that all brought before him would be fined If found guilty. Police with stop watches stationed themselves at downtown crossings. And one of the first offenders to fall afoul their net was Mrs. Chew, wife of the judge himself. The officer making the arrest after learning her identity permitted her to go. And at dinner that night Mrs. Chey told her husband of the Incident. Next morning the policeman was haled before the bench. "Did you let a woman go yesterday after stopping her for speeding?” Judge Chew asked. “Why, er—yes, your honor,” the bluecoat stammered. “She ” “Go get her and bring her into courts came the succinct interruption. “But—” the officer started further explanation. "Bring her in—don’t care who She is,” bellowed the court. In less time than it takes to tell Mrs. Chew was standing at the bar before her husband as a prisoner. “One dollar, and don’t let any one catch you speeding again,” decreed hep lord and master and judge rolled in one. Mrs. Chew paid and with a swish of her skirts bustled from the room. But the judge hasn't told what she said to him that night. All folks hereabouts know is that he had the final word with her—ln court.

<t vßangJe LETTER FROM LESLIE PRESCOTT TO RUTH ELLINGTON, CONTINUED You can imagine my surprise, dear, when last night a card was sent me just as I was dressing for dinner. It was inscribed “Air. Edgerton Santly.” Underneath was written, “Frienl of Mr. and Mrs. I-Jarry Ellington. Perhaps you have heard them speak of me.” I had never heard you speak of him, Ruth, but I Was very lonely and I thought it would do no harm to meet him in the lobby. It would be very easy to get rid of him if I did not find him really your friend. I was very curious to see him. I found him, when I entered the lobby, a very charming English gentleman who said he had seen my name on the register of the hotel and as he had heard both you and Walter Burke speak of me and my husband, he had taken the liberty of sending me his card. Vague Idea I have a vague idea now that I have heard you speak of him. He seemed to have known you very well when you were first married to Harry before I knew you. He has Just come from England, where he tells me he saw Walter Burke before sailing. Evidently Walter had not told him anything about Harry for he asked about him quite particularly and seemed rather chagrined when I informed him exactly what had happened. “Mrs. Ellington seemed such a nice woman,” he said, "that I cannot understand how any man could make her unhappy, and when I knew them Mr. Ellington was extremely attentive to her.” He told me Walter is going to Egypt for the winter. He has accepted a berth with a party of archeologists who are really to get into the inside of King Tut's tomb in the next few months. He said ono reason why he had sent his card to me was Walter had told him that If by any possibility he saw you or John or me to give us his kindest regards and to tell us that he wauld surely be back with us again next year. Os course, Ruth, I knew' that message was for you and so I am passing It on. Mr. Santly asked me If I were dining at the hotel, and I told him as I was alone I had not thought of going out anyw'here. He asked me If he might sit at my table and I, of course, wits very glad to have someone to talk to. Priscilla Again All went very happily until I happened to see the people who w’ero coming In at the next table. It was a party with whom Priscilla Bradford was evidently dining. I tried to bow to her, but she pretended not to know me. I wonder why it is that I am to be dogged by that persistent past all the rest of my life. Now, of oourso, she will rite to Jack's mother and he will be the recipient of another long letter retailing my reprehensible actions. I have invited Mr. Santly, if he comes to Allny. to l>ave dinner with Jack and me, and as I did it, I wondered what J k would say, especially if he got his mother’s letter before I return. At least, I have thrown off the shackles, Ruth, I shall do what I please in the future. Lovingly, LESLIE. (Copyright. 1923, NEA Service, Ino.

Body Formed to Do Mending for Women Too Busy to Sew

Bn XF.A Service J— -lANSAS CITY, Mo., Dec. 27. K I Bachelors and business wornIf VI on—a boon! The Women’s Trade Union League of this city has begun a moverrfent which may be taken up for the aid of your helpless brothers and sisters in other parts of the country. Henceforth, thanks to this league, you needn’t worry about loose buttons, torn linings or “holy” stockings. Nay,' not even to the bother of doing your own sewing and darning/ after a day of toil. The league offers to do this for you. Mrs. Sarah Green, president, divulges the plan. It calls for a mending bureau or repair shop to do valet service for all persons too busy to atte.id to their own grooming. The shop’s purpose is twofold—to give needy women out of work a way to earn a living and to provide funds for temporary loans to working girls who have become ill or are out of work and will not accept public charity. “Business women who come home tired and mentally harassed should rest and relax,” says Mrs. Green. “On the other hand there are many women who have skill with their fingers and who are out of work. They can help the business women save her strength for the things she can do best. At the same time they can become self-supporting by means of our mending bureau.”

— Martha Lee Says : Man Indicts Own Sex for Mistreating Wives

The nagging wife came in for her share of criticism—and sh< deserved it—in a letter from a man who said he was driven to pool rooms and finally to separation, by a wife who had nothing bui cross words for him.

And now comes a letter describing another reason for unhappy marriages. This, too, is from a man. It asks men in general a number of probing questions about how dften they compliment her, how many times they gp away In the morning with only a grouchy good-by. It is a strong indictment against the men, by one of their own sex. It could be served against many men who forget, when honeymoon days are far In the background, that wives, like unmarried women, blossom out and are at their best under the praise of a man; against men who think It "foolishness” to compliment their wives. How About This, Men? Dear Martha bee; In refrard to tel!ow who loal in poolrooms to tret away from home. I wonder whether "42. ’ who dul goto set away from a natnrinir wife with a house ull of children, ever tded helping arounlT the home or giving his wife a pleasant word when ho came in and found her tired out from bending over a washtub with babies pulling at uer sltlrt. a sacrifice no man would make. Do we men remember the earefree girl* who gave up all for this kind of work for us? Does this man ever stop to consider how much easier th girls where he works have It, than his wife? Does he try to be as jolly around her as around these girls? Does ho leave his wife In the morning with the same jolly good-by that he gives these girls In th < evening? For every man that does not do this. I could show you a doxen sacrificed women who stay only on account of thetr mother instinct to keep thetr children together I have a beloved sister and a slster-ln-law who went through this day after day. Show mo a mar. that does not do this and I will show you an, Ideally happy home I have a home and n rood, eweet wife, but I would not expect her to be that way if T did the things I have described. I know men who do this every day. and then complain of nagging wives. What does Martha Lee say? JUST A MAN. Marriage is a contract. A nagging wife is not living up to her part of the bargain. A man who gives his wife only cross words Is not living up to his. You .are mistaken, howe<V‘r, in assuming that nagging wives and cross husbands always go together. They do not. Some women are natural naggers, who begin as soon as they find their husbands cannot give them the beautiful clothes some of their friends have. Some men are naturally grouchy and think they

He appears to care for mo and he tells me he thinks-a great deal of me, but ho does not come to see me so very often. Still, ho never goes with any one else and when he doesn’t come over he is usually to be found among eomo of his meu friends, at the club or at home. Do you think he does like mo, or is he just saying so? 2. It has been said many times that people with the game color of hair and eyes should not marry because they will not get along well together. Do you think there Is any truth In this statement? y CHARLOTTE. 1. The man very evidently likes you and I think you have nothing to worry nlxjut. 2. I do not. Still Wants Fun Miss Lee: I am a girl 22 years old and have been going with a fellow- for one year. Ho has asked mo to accept an engagement ring from him and I have promised him I would. I think I love this fellow, but I am not ready to give up ail my other dates and settlo down. Ha told mo that if I would not do this he would quit mo and try to forget me. Sometimes I think I will let him have a chance to quit mo. but I cannot bear to think of his being with another girl. I could hot stand that, and at the same time 1 do not know whether I love him or not. I don't want to give him up and I don’t want to give up all my good limes. What shall I do? AN ITNDECIDED SWEETIE. "We can't have everything,” you know. But you seem to have an idea thnt marriage would be a terrible grind, with nothing to make up for the “good times” you do not w r ant to give up. Why not test your love? Ask the man to stay away for several weeks, or even longer, so that you can tell whether you really love him.

7n/Dr. C C Robinson EFFECTS OF FEAR HE effect of fear on the physij I cal condition of the body is ii—..,. i different in the many types or characters of persons. There is, howa direct psychologic and physiologic relation between fear and health. Fear in man is caused by outside influences acting on the brain, spinal cord and nervous system. In many cases, it reduces the one afflicted to a condition of almost helplessness and loss of any real determining action in life’s battle. Fear of his fellow man, fear of the loss of occupation and consequent poverty, fear of disease with partial or total loss of b.ody efficiency, and fear of death, are some of the causes which determine yoQr health condition. Then there is the fear of some petty tyrant or loss in the business situation that oft-times, from continued nagging or spying, supervision, almost drives one to distraction and a nervous wreck. And there is the fear of social disapproval in women. Fear is also one of the determining factors in self-preservation, the first law of man. It is In this case not morbid. It Is morbid only when inappropriate to the situation which provokes it. Many impressions of !ear are formed in early childhood tnd are retained and carried through life, greatly to the detriment of health and Individual success. “We lose so )ft by fearing to attempt.” On another case the foundation of fear may sometimes be the result of :he psychologic state of the body. When there is physical exhaustion, !he tissues respond inadequately to situations requiring powerful and rapid reaction. The consciousness of this produces an unwillingness to face such situations, hence diffidence, disinterestedness or th® "don't-care” spirit. If this condition be oft repeated, the Individual will become distrustful of himself. In this way, timorousness, diffidence and fear develop In 111-nourished children, underfed women and overdriven, exhausted men. Do not try to overcome fear by di-

Little as one may realize it, your actions are in this situation the product of fear. Resolve to be thyself and know that he who finds himself loses his fear.
