DANGER LURKS IN WOMEN’S DESIRE FOR FINE CLOTHES

The Mother Who Has Some Honest Credit to Herself Will Sleep Better When Daylight Dies—What Is in the / Head Counts More Than the Hat Upon It. By Mrs. Walter Ferguson American women have long preened themselves upon being the best dressed in the world. Certainly they deserve this compliment. If they are not perfectly grooned, it is not their fault, for they spend more time at it than anything else.

However, there is danger lurking in the desire to be always gorgeously arrayed. It is easy to become so concerned about this one thing to the neglect of others more important. We may be pleased to know that nowhere do women, as a whole, dress so harmoniously or attractively, but how about the fact that we have been called the most selfish -jnothers on earth? How About Inside? We may have eight or ten hats a season and spend fabulous sums for our marcels, thus taking excellent care of the outside of our heads, but how about what we are putting into them? Our hands may be perfectly kept, but can we feel too much pride in them when we are accused of doing fewer home-making than the wives of other nations? Our feet may be trimly and expensively shot, but what sort of errands are they hurrying upon? We are spending more money and more time upon the beautification of our bodies than we have ever done before. Are we getting a decent return for our effort, or are we selling our birthright for a mess of pottaga? With all of our beauty, are we fit to be the mothers of a Lincoln, an Edison, or a Jefferson? Honest Service First It is a wonderful thing to feel yourself perfectly correct as to clothes, and this is not to say that it can not be done as a side issue, but it is a far more wonderful thing to have your skirt sag because you have carried a baby in your tired arms, or forgotten to cold cream your face because you t were too busy looking after other people’s comfort. Each of us has bue one short life to live. The grave will inevitably close over every head. In the tomb

good clothes will count for nothing. The woman who has some honest serice to her credit will sleep nu>re peacefully after her daylight flies than she who has concerned herself chiefly with the raiment for her body.

The WOMAN’S DAY By Allene Suinnor

Queen Marie dieted for a svelte figure before she went to Paris to buy new togs,for her American trp, we are told. And over this sylphlike flapper “Agger” the Queen draped a 'fur-trimmed coat of beige and green velvet with a close little toque of velvet and beige upon her golden locks. That was the Queen’s outfit when she entered Paris. By afternoon, of the same day she showed what her figure could do to a cloth coat of regal purple with dress and hat to match. Many of us have sniffed at the idea that all women are born free and equal. But if even a queen must go through the rigors of dieting, things aren’t so uneven after all! * * * We note that the lovely Queen has' a hat to match each of her several dozen costurpes. There is nothing that so makes a woman well-dressed as the matching hat and dress or suit or coat. If you yourself have more than one outfit and can’t have a different hat for every one, be sure to pick one that goes with either. Thus, if you have a brown and a? green outfit, green or brown would be lovely with either, while purple or black or blue or rose would not be so good for either one. * • • Isabel MacDonald, young daughter of the former labor premier of Great Britain, Ramsey MacDonald, who acted as housekeeper for her widowed father during his. stay on Downing St., will run for a seat in Parliament. Such following in a father’s footsteps may seen only natural. But facts are that for every son or daughter who enters dad’s job, there are at least fifty sons and daughters who don’t. * * * Let's see, somebody said something lately about bobbed hair being all out. Last week six of my friends who have cherished their tresses to the bitter end placed the pates upon the block. And Queen Marie, defying the court jeweler, who asked 1 what in the world she’d do when she wore the crown, bobbed her own locks before leaving her homeland. Bobbed it very short, moveover! Her alibi that she can. pin on her severed hair when she wears the crown is only what Mrs. Smith of Main St. tells her hubby when he wonders how in the world she’ll wear last year’s hat. “Pin it on when I wear a hat,” says she, knowing t very well that she’ll have anew one. Maybe they’ll have to have a new Queen's crown in Rou mania! •• • V Speaking of bobbed heads, as we can’t seem to stop doing, a papa living near Paris killed himself because his two doughters had their hair cut. It may be heartless, but | I can’t help thinking how lucky the i girls are without such a tool parent.

“Let’s eat,” Bob grinned at Faith with that winning boyishness she loved ao tenderly. “There’s no use in sending back this delicious honejr Del melon, untasted, and we’ve got filet of sole coming up any minute now. I’m sure we will function more brilliantly as amateur detectives after we’ve eaten.” Oddly enough, Faith found that i she was keenly hungry. It was heavi enly to eat delicdte foods that she herself had not prepared. "Tell me what you’ve been doing with yourself,” he suggested eagerly. "Let Cherry wait a bit until after we’ve finished our luncheon. I havo I skads of time —can take a couple of hours as easy as not.” I She told him the most interesting 'details of the last three weeks—the interminable three weeks since she had seen him, since that dreadful scene over Cherry's attempt to force him into an engagement, a means of escape from her impending marriage with Bob’s uncle. “Cherry has simply gone moneymad,” she concluded. '“Mr. Cluny has apparently given her carte blanche on charge accounts, and the house is simply stacked ceiling-high with her purchases. Frances Warren, Selma Pruitt and I are to be bridesmaids, and Joy, though she’s a bit leggy for the role, is to be flower girl. Frances’ little nephew, Ned Warren, is going to be ringbearer. Oh, it’s going to be a very swank wedding—and I’m scared to death.” / “You don't look it," he smiled back at her. “You look as if a high church Episcopalian wedding were a mere incident in the gay social whifl of your days. Uncle Ralph certainly tumbled hard, didn’t he? I wouldn’t be a bit surprised if the black-eyed Lola hadn’t tried fihe same thing—and failed. That would explain a lot, wouldn’t it? But we promised not to talk mystery until we have finished with our luncheon.” There w r as a raspberry parfait, with tiny, nut-sprinkled cakes, for dessert, followed by a demitasse. Bob’s eyes were very tender as he watched her eat with shy, keen en joyment. “I want to take you out oftener, Faith. You need a taste of gayety. Too much kitchen work will take the starch out of any girl.” “You—you haven’t seemed especially eager the last three weeks.” Faith could not help pointing out, though disgust with herself made her cheeks hot. The red crept slowly upon his own cheeks, but his eyes were steady and honest as they gazed into hers. “It wasn’t that I didn’t want to see you, dear. I think jrou know that. But —well, can you blame me—after the Saturday night at the Marlboro Country Club? After all, Mr. Cluny is my own uncle. It put me in a terribly embarrassing position. Cousin Alice came over to see me and gave me Hail Columbia, tried to make me admit that I cared for Cherry, and would marry her. Uncle Ralph had me out to his house for dinner and asked me, as a favor to him, to let Cherry alone. “For his own sake, and for hers, I couldn’t tell him the truth about that night. I had to promise. I told him it wasn’t Cherry that I—loved, that it was—you. He wouldn’t believe me, asked me to stay away from Myrtle St. until after the wedding and I —well, dear, I agreed. Then Selma told me you were going to marry George after a while —”

“Oh, but that’s not true!” Faith cried out In dismay. "He asked me again, but I told him I couldn’t. Selma had no right—” “Girls are funny things, aren’t | they, dear?’’ he leaned across the table and took both her hands in his. Chivalry forbade h*- saying that Selma. in a slightly more ladylike way, was using the same tactics to land him as had Cherry. But Faith understood and nodded, her fingers closing with a sudden, firm pressure about his. “Don’t say- anything more—now,” she breathed. “I—l didn’t hunt yon up to—to scold yen for neglecting me. We must do something to help Cherry. I’m afraid she’ll have nervous prostration before the wedding If this thing keeps up.” “Tell you what,” Bob withdrew his hands and beckoned for the waiter. “We’ll go back and confront Miss Lois Gonzales with the proofs of her pretty little scheme, and see if we can’t get to the bottom of this.” “Do you think any of the Cluny relatives is behind her, using her. because of her double motive for hating Cherry!” “I’d hate like the devil to think so,” Bob shook his head, but his mouth was sterner than she had ever seen it. “I’ve talked with Alexander Cluny, Uncle Ralph’s son, you know and young Ralph came to see

me, too.

"Don’t be afraid to call a spade a spade, dear.” She dropped the last word shyly, on a lower, more tender note.'' And she reflected that it was the first time in her life she had called any man “dear.” Oh, dear Bob, darlin^^lob! “There’s talk among the Allbrighta and the Alexander Clunys of having Uncle Ralph adjudged mentally incompetent,” Bob/ admitted soberly. “I don’t think they cam get very far with that line, though. The old boy’s too popular as a big criminal lawyer —the most famous in the State, you know —and there’s no doubt that he’s capable of handling his own affairs. If every tnan who planned an unwise marriage could be jerked up in court and adjudged mentally incompetent, there wouldn’t be many of us allowed to go free. Except me, of course.” He laughed a tender, exultant laugh, that made her heart beat wildly with Joy. When they reached his offices, they found that Lola Gonzales had fled, leaving a note for Bob: "Hive been called home on account- of -the serious illness of my mother. I don’t know When I can return.

MENUS For the FAMILY By Sister Mary———— BREAKFAST Stewed prunes, ready to serve- cereals; thin cream scrambled eggs, graham muffins, marmalade, milk, coffee. LUNCHEON —Spanish rice, toasted muffins, floating Island, milk, tea, DINNER—Roast spare-ribs, baked saurkraut and potatoes, spinach salad, whole wheat bread, apple pudding, milk, coffee. Milk or thin cream is served with apple pudding suggested In the dinner menu. This increases the amount of proffebi in a menu otherwise low in this element. By combining saurkraut with mashed potatoes, the flavor of the kraut is tempered and the dish is really delicately flavored and palatable. Spanish Rice. One tablespoon butter, one tablespoon bacon fat, one large Spanish onion, two cups canned tomatoes one-half cup uncooked rice, one-half teaspoon salt, one-eighth teaspoon pepper. Melt butter and bacon fat In frying pan. Add onion cut in thin slices and cook over a low fire for ten minutes. Add tomatoes and sprinkle rice over top. Cover and cook over a low fire for one hour. Serve with or without crisp bacon curls. If the rice is sprinkled evenly over the tomatoes, the mixture will not need stirring for at least half an hour. end of this time the rice will have absorbed much of the tomato juice on top and the combination will require mixing. If the frying pan is kept closely covered and the tomatoes are of average juiciness, no water should be added, for the dish should not be too moist. (Copyright, 1926, NEA Service, Inc.)
