Perhaps you find that a hearty breakfast is more to your needs than no breakfast aud a hearty luncheon. This menu is planned td take care of this circumstance. Or you may prefer an afternoon tea to the bedtime “refreshment.” Suit your diet to your mode of living. The lettuce sandwich is made of whole wheat bread and about 1 ounce of head lettuce. No butter, hut you may sprinkle the lettuce with a teaspoonful of diet dressing, made with mineral oil if you choose. If the top is poured from a bottle of whole milk and the milk left in the bottle poured into a glass, the milk in the glass Is practically skimmed milk. However, many dairies and lunch counters and restaurants can furnish genuine skimmed milk if you worry about your calories when you “skim” the milk yourself.

While on a gaining diet be sure you rest for a few minutes after each meal. This gives the stomach, a chance to digest its food in peace, as it were. Good digestion and the assimilation of the food you et e necessary if you would gain in weight. (Copyright, 1924, NEA Service, Inc.)

c tt> eC ?£insfe LETTER FROM LESLIE PRESCOTT TO RUTH ELLINGTON. So you went to New York, dear Ruth, to meet Walter? Os course, by this time you know I was called here by my father's serious illness. Poor old dad! He has to have a surgical operation, and we are preparing him for it today. We will take him to the hospital tomorrow. The doctors, however, say they think he will get well and be quite healthy if the operation is successful. You see, dear, there is always an if. Os course, I am exceedingly nervous and worried about him. It is unfortunate that coming just at this time should be this trouble I am having in my own family. Before I begin to talk about myself, I want to wish you all joy possible with this sweetheart of yours, who has been so faithful. I don't | want to discourage you at all, but i just at present I. would not be a good person to consult if the con suitor wanted an affirmative opinion on marriage. I wouldn’t marry any man on earth, even irl thought he was as splendid as I know you think Walter Burke is at the present moment. Ruth, that terrible catastrophe that we were afraid was, looming up and come, and my marriage has gone on the rocks. Only you have known, dear, just how I have ' ursed tvery Joy and tried to prolong every happiness that has come to me in the last three years. Only you know how much I have forgiven and tried to forget. It has beer, of no avail. Jack will never forgive me. Three years married—the fatal three years. You know that psychologists say that if one gets through the first three years of married life, the chances of being able to bear the load are not so bad. I once heard Jane Addams talk about this. She said the first year of marriage the husband was veiy proud of his wife, and the wife kept her house very splendidly and paid a great deal of attention to him. Even in the second year when the first baby came, the husband was willing to carry the baby'and once in a while trundle the baby carriage. If there was one. He got rather tired, though, of teething and colicky babies, and by the time the second baby came in the third year, unless he had a good deal of stamina, he simply deserted the poor little hard-working woman with two children. Well, my dear, I have found that human nature is alike, in all classes of society, and even Jane Addams’ generation, which, of course, is that before mine, shows the same proclivities in the male that we have now.

French couturieres which appear in early and late August. Many checks, both in alpaca and in sheer materials, much black and white, much mousseline de soie In pastel colors, many large hats, strange little square parasols, fantastic leopard skin trimmings, many gay figured frocks and enough frocks along Japanese lines to make one wonder what their vogue is to be this coming winter. It was easily the greatest Grand l’rix since the war, and what was worn will be talked about for weeks to come.

, Martha Lee Say Girl Doubts Possibility of Happy Married Life The doubts that assail every girl about the possibility of being happy though married are voiced in a letter I have just received. Even though she declares she is “not even thinking of marriage,” this girl tells of the many times she has heard husbands or wives express the opinion that marriage is not a bad institution, but they really would like to be free of it once more.
“Inquisitive” wonders whether all married folk, especially women, feel that w’ay. Well, they probably do, at times, no matter how happily married they may be. So perverse is human nature that it always is crying for the moon, and then, when it gets it, would like to chuck it and go back to its old rubber ball. But, would these wives and husbands, if they should find themselves in what they now believe to be "single blessedness” again, be happy? Probably not. Those who are “freed” usually don't stay that way. And those who express a wish to be single again don’t even mean it, as a rule. It’s just natural for them to think they want what they don’t have. It’s a habit left over from the; Eimes they cried* for the moon. Those Doubts Dear Mis* Lee: I am a young girl not even thinking of marriage. But I would like to know whether there are any young married girls who would not rather be single again. I always have heard people say. “Married life is all right, but I would rather be single .” bet me hea from some of the young married girls INQUISITIVE Oh, yes, there are many, many young married girls who do not want to be single again. Some of them are included in the list of those who say they do long for "freedom.” They would be more dissatisfied than ever if they got what they think they want. Marriage is all right, as they say, Inquisitive. The trouble is with some married folk. They don’t recognize happiness when they have it. Meeting Her Half Way Dear Miss Lee: Three years ago I met a girl and went with her for three months. A soldier fame between us. I never bothered her any mere. A while back I met her and she asked me to come and see
FABLES ON HEALTH Breathing Exercises
AY, what did I tell you the other day about standing erect?” demanded Mr. Mann's physical instructor, when he again found that gentleman walking about with stooped shoulders. “Well, what can I do about it? It's all right to stand there and tell me all the things that are the matter with me. But what can I do about it?” demanded Mr. Mann. “A little exercise, continuously applied, will do it,” the physical director answered. “The first thing to do is to un-
her. I went. She is going with a fellow now, but says she won’t marry him. She talked as if she wants to settle down. 1 go to see her about once a month, thinking it will help to stay away. I love her very much. I am 25 and she is 23. What would you suggest I do to win her over? LONESOME CHARLIE. Win her over? Why, my dear man, give her half a chance and she’ll have you married before you have time to wonder how it all happened. Too Popular Dear Martha Lee: What should I do? I am 14. I don't say I am in love, as so many girls do. I am trying not to get that way. It seems impossible these days. I like for the boys to like me. as most of them do. But one boy bothers me terribly. I don't like him. He has shown much affection for six months. I am the only girl he ever liked. In that time he has grown up until he looks like a man and does not play with the other boys. I like a real boy. I leel terrible that I have been the cause of any boy’s life being turned as his has. I treat him very cool. He seems to value my friendship so much that I am if he knew the truth, he would do something desperate. I know this is terrible. for my age. but it. is not my fault. What should I do? There are other boys that bother me. too. WANT TO BE A REAL GIRL. As the boy values your friendship and your opinion so much, w’hy not use them to make him a “real boy”? I’m sure you' could. Poor Sheik Dear Miss Lee: I am 20 years old. and a real sheik. Girls always have fallen for me. But the one girl I really want won't have anything to do with me. I have asked her for dates about ten times, but she always has some excuse. She goes with boys who can’t show her half as good a time as I can. How can I win her? LONESOME SHEIK. By being a he-man, I should suggest. Evidently sheiks do not appeal to her and her idea of a “good time’’ differs from yours. I have an idea I should like that girl.
dertake a series of breathing exercises. You can start to strengthen the abdominal muscles by lying on your hack and raising first the legs and then the head. “When you do your breathing exercises, remember to take slow, deep breaths and lie on your back when you do it. Later put a weight of two pounds or more on your abdomen. “Once you have gained abdominal strength the matter of posture will be much easier. I’ll tell you about how to get the best results out of these exercises the next time I see you.”

Household Suggestions Buy Large Fish ’ Buy a large fish and use the leftovers rather than a small fish for one meal, because there is less waste in proportion to the amount of meat. Small Quantities Many groceries deteriorate with long storing and prove to be much more expensive in the long run than if you buy in small quantities and keep getting fresh installments. Prevents Cheese Drying Butter the edges of cut cheese to keep it from drying. Store it in a cool, dry place of even temperature. Selecting - Fruit When selecting fruit buy that which is not bruised, as a break in the skin means quick decay.
