LARGE SUPPLIES make low food costs. Learn to plan your market reports in mind and select as many “surplus” as possible. The new list of surplus foods has

Federal Surplus Commodities Corp. These foods uld

ould be used as far as possible’ by you and family if low cost food budgets are important to you: Butter, apples, pork lard, dried prunes; onions (except green beans, fresh pears, wheat flour and whole wheat flour,

1 cup onions (cooked and chopped) 1 cup onion water 1% teaspoon nutnieg 1 cup applesauce water ” then blend in flour which has been sifted with Add meat stock and stir mixture until it béils. onions, onion water and ‘applesauce. Salt to taste. Serve ‘and garnish with fried apple balls. This is good fun and something different and all in the line of surplus list. Corn Muffins (SERVES 4 TO 6)

2 eggs, well beaten 3% cup melted fat 1% cups sour milk or buttermilk >

Sift dry ingredients together. Combine .eggs, milk -and melted shortening. Combine wet and dry ingredients quickly, mixing barely enough to moisten. Turn at once into hot greased iron muffin pans and bake for 25 minutes in a hot oven (400 degrees F.). If sweet milk is used, omit the soda and increase the amount of baking powder to four teaspoonfuls.

JANE JORDAN

DEAR JANE JORDAN—My husband and I have been married

almost 20 years and have a fine son 18 years old. My husband hasn't

had good health and spends all we can save going to the hospital to get treatments. He is able to work most of the time but worries terribly about himself. : He worked away from home a while and doesn’t want to stay home any more. I'm awfully lonesome when he is gone. Lately he got tired of his out-of-town job and came home. Afterward he blamed me for trying to get him to come home. He won't take me with him to places of amusement and talked a lot about girls working in beer parlors and dance halls. When I begged him to take me he said I didn’t fit and couldn’t go. Still he claims he loves only me and has no use for bad women. - Last night I asked him to take me but he wouldn’t and we had

a bitter quarrel. We patched it up and he said we'd try to make

conditions better. Our son went with him to a dance hall, and when I asked him if his father danced, he said he did. The boy told him

he ought to take me and he answered that I didn't say I would go

until the last minute and it took me two hours to get ready. He is 40 years old. I have read where men at that age want a last fling at a good time. Do you think that is it or the condition of his health? I have poor health and my heart is so sore I can’t take a long breath, but he never takes any interest in my health. I try to tell him he shouldn’t drink so much but he says he couldn't make it if he didn’t. How would you treat him? DISCOURAGED.

Answer—I don’t believe that this situation is as bad as you think ft is. You and your husband have weathered 20 years of marriage and now is no time to pull against each other. You have your son to think of, too. It is just that illness and economic worries have put your nerves on edge and you snap at each other. When life gets too hard and home turns into a hospital, most

men crave relief and will find it one way or another. If your hus-

band prefers to work away from home, it only can mean that he finds it easier to forget his problems when he doesn’t have you to remind him of his troubles. You must learn not to harp about what is wrong. You're discouraged and so is he. The difference between you is that he seeks diversion, if only in a dance hall, while you hug your troubles too closely and cannot push them aside even for an hour or two. I befieve that he would take you along if he thought that you'd enjoy yourself. But what' fun is it to take a woman who frowns in disapproval at all she does not like and who is jealous if her husband dances with others? This is what he means when he says you do

not “fit.”

Try to rise to the occasion and meet the man’s need for diver=

siori. No matter how dark the outlook, courageous people always can find something outside themselves to take their minds off their problems for a while. It takes an effort for a woman to wrest her atten-

tions from her trials and tribulations long enough to be cheerful, but if you want to solve this problem you must learn how to have fun in

spite of everything. JANE JORDAN.

BEAUTY

GONE ARE THE DAYS when getting ready for a formal party meant applying powder with a lavish hand, plastering on layers of eye makeup and, in general, achieving anything hut a natural effect. f For evening, today’s smart woman may use several cosmetics which she wouldn’t think of wearing during daytime hours, but she puts them on sparingly. When she’s ready for the ball, she looks like a Dresden china lady and not like a painted doll. According to make-up experts of both New York and Hollywood, the lashes never should be beaded with mascara. Apply it'to tips of lashes and color only a few hairs at a time. It is seldom necessary to do the lower lashes, and it is important to remember to brush upward on the upper ones. . THE HEAD OF THE MAKE-UP department in a famous motion picture studio says that it is best to choose eyeshadow to match the color of your eyes. Put the shadow on the lid, starting near nose blending outward. The shadow can be a bit deeper nearest the lashes than up near the eyebrow line. The final effect must s0 subtle, however, with no harsh lines or smears showing. ’s a mistake to pluck your eyebrows. Remove straggling that grow down on‘ lids or across nose between brows, of course, but don’t remove any hairs that grow within the natural arch of the eyebrows. . . And don’t forget to brush eyebrows -each time after applying makeup. Otherwise, their untidy appearance will contrast unpleasantly with the rest of your perfectly groomed face. If brows seem prittle and dry instead of smooth and shiny, put.a little olive oil on them at night and leave it on while you sleep. Before brushing them during daytime hours, put a tiny speck of eyelid oil or night cream on the brush. . 2

spend as much time and thought in the selection of presents for men as they do in choosing gifts for us.” If he has a hobby, by all means consider a gift which will let him ‘know that you take his hobby seri- | ously» If he goes in for a sport, how about something to foster interest in it and make him feel for once, at least, like the hero of a story built around that sport? The golfer might:like to carry his clubs in one of the new tweed bags. These actually are made of tweed— processed to be as durable as leather. The fisherman certainly would be pleased with a workmanlike but extremely good looking kit of equipment with which to repair his lines, rods, flies, leaders and so on. An encyclopedia, special reference books, an office-size dictionary or a set, including a small dictionary and a synonym dictionary, are suggested for the man with literary leanings. | For the musical-minded, there are brand new: recordings of dozens of operas and symphonies. For the man who loves paintings but ‘doesn’t live near museums, there are some exceptionally fine books of art masterpieces. The most eye-appealing gifts im the wearing apparel departments
