HOUSEWIVES have special problems during Lent as they must be prepared to serve a variety of good meals despite the restrictions of the season. For dinner tomorrow you might try chili shrimp in hominy ring, chopped mixed green salad, raw carrot sticks, green peas, butterscotch tarts and a beverage.

JANE JORDAN

DEAR JANE JORDAN-—I am separated from my husband, but not divorced. All my married life it seemed as though there was something missing. I did not marry my husband because I loved him but for a home. I always had to work and just before we were married I was in the hospital with tuberculosis. There I met a young interne whom I always liked, but never realized that I loved until one night last January when I dreamed that he came to me and said: “Now don't you wish you had listened to your doctor and stayed in the hospital until you were able to go back to work?” Ever since that night I realized that I always have loved him. It has been 15 years since I saw him last. I have a great desire to see him again, but I wouldn't want to see him if he is married now for fear something might come up that would hurt him in his practice as a physician or in his home life. In what way could I find out about it all without being too personal? I am sure he does not know of the feeling I have for him, A.M. D.

Q—If a demi-tasse is to be served after dinner, should the after-din-ner coffee spoons be placed on.the table with the rest of the silverware, or placed on the saucers when the coffee is served A?—They should be placed on the saucers.

Answer—Many women who are not in love with their husbands dream of someone who is closer to the heart's desire. Sometimes they hang their ideal on a man whom they know and sometimes they simply invent an imaginary figure to serve as an outlet for pent up emotions. Very few of them expect anything to come of such day dreams, but accept them as a lame sort of substitute for unsatisfactory reality. Your difficulty lies in the fact that you want to realize your dream in fact. Common sense should tell you that a busy young doctor has forgotten all about you in 15 years. Very likely he has had dozens of other patients who have fallen mildly or madly in love with him in the interim. Doctors whose business it is to deal with sick women often become the temporary object of their affections simply because it is their job to listen sympathetically to the troubles of their patients. It would be far better for you to make a life for yourself in the present than to try to resurrect something from the past. Accept your dream as an indication of your wish to turn back the clock and start over at the point where you made the mistake of marrying for a home and security. It would be folly to endow it with a deeper signficance, or to believe that you are actually in love with such a remote figure. When one chooses a remote ideal to love, it usually indicates that one is simply afraid of failure with more available men, JANE JORDAN,
