But the orator took full advantage of his opportunity and delivered an improving lecture on the value of kindness to dumb animals. At the end he sought for some illustration to point the moral and adorn the tale. It was there at hand. Across the way walked a lady, leading twg little dogs in leash. The one was black and the other white. "Now," exclaimed the tub-thumper "after what 1 have said, supposing those two dear little dogs were to s'art fighting, hat would be the first thing you would do?" No answer came at first; but one little arab turned to look at the dogs critically and thoughtfully. "Well, iv -nor. " he answered, at last. "I fink I'd ave tuppence on the little black un?"

BALANCING THE FOOD
BILL OF FARE SHOULD BE APPETIZING AND VARIED. Very Much More a Case of Judicious Selection and Serving Than of Expense Suitable Combination of Food Materials. To say that a family bill of fare must be appetizing and varied does not necessarily mean that it must be costly as Well. At Unit light, it might seem difficult to secure these qualities without buying rather expensive mate rials or serving very fancy dtehes, but j the theory does not hold in the case of food any more than in that of clothing and house furnishings. Just as the test of a woman's abil- ! lty in dress is to get suitable and at- i tractive effects with relatively low expense, so the test of her catering ability is to give her family an ample supply of wholesome and pleasantly varied meals with an outlay of money and time proportionate to her income and circumstances. Variety in the diet can be secured both by providing different kinds of food and by preparing staple foods in different ways, and the best results are obtained by combining both methods, says the United State department of agriculture year book. When the housekeeper studies the list of common foods and the combinations made from them, she will probably find that as regards their place In the menu they fall into general groups those which, like bread, potatoes, milk, eggs, etc., which have little distinctive taste, and those like cheese, soasoning vegetables, some sweets, cooked meats, etc., which have marked the individual flavor. She will further find that the mild-flavored materials are the ones which are used in the greatest quantities, meal after meal, while those of pronounced taste appear in smaller amounts, or some of them only occasionally. To put it in another way, she will depend largely on the first group to make up the bulk of her dietary, and on the second to vary it. In cookery, some foods require only simple methods to make them very palatable. Tender steaks, or chops, in cooking, develop delicious meat flavors and require no highly flavored vegetable seasoning or condiments to make them palatable. In themselves they furnish flavor sufficient to accompany potatoes, rice or other foods of mild flavor. On the other hand, in stews and other dishes made from the cheaper cuts of meat, carrots, onions or other distinctive flavors are usually added to supplement that of the meat flavor. The cheaper cuts are not usually of such a texture that the best results can be secured by such simple methods as broiling or roasting. The housekeeper who makes a dish composed of cheese and macaroni, or of meat and rice or potato, etc., applies the 6ame principle. The great variety of pickles, preserves and elaborate pastry which American housekeepers used to consider necessary represented another instinctive effort to vary, by adding flavor, the monotony which was inevitable, particularly in winter fare, before the days of easy transportation and cold storage brought freh fruits and vegetables the year round. If the good housekeeper analyzes the make-up of her meals a little further, she will probably find that she arranges them, perhaps unconsciously, according to more or less definite principles. In most American families the chief daily features of breakfast are bread of some sort with butter, very often fruit, and some kind of breakfast cereal, and coffee, tea or cocoa, with their usual accompaniments of sugar and milk or cream. This combination is varied by omitting either the bread or the cereal tw hich is logical, if one wishes to do it. since they provide the same sort of nutrients, though in different form), by changing the kind of bread or Of) mil, or by combining with them some other materials. If the members of the family are engaged In much muscular work, the meal will be made more hearty by the addition of some hot dish, as eggs, meat hash, creamed lish. bacon and possibly honey or sirup. If their work is light, however, less variety or smaller portions will probably be preferred. The custom of serving fruit at breakfast is undoubtedly healthful and not extravagant if low-priced fruit is 1 chosen. Of course, it may be cooked ! or canned fruit, if this is more con venient. It does not increase the housekeeper's work so much if it is served with the other breakfast dishes as it does if made a separate course. for each course means extra time and service. This is a commonplace illustration of the principle that the houseper who has man demands on her time or who has limited help should select ways of service which are simple and time-saving rather thar those suitable for families where other conditions prevail. Well carried out, the result is pleasing in either case. Rhubarb Sponge.

DAY OF THE PARASOL
SOME REALLY PRETT V EFFECTS ARE BEING SHOWN. One May Select a Practical Shade and Formation, cr, to Be Modest, One That l3oders on the Eccentric Each Is Permissible. (By MARY DKAN ) Parasol days are surely here. In fact a few promenaders have even carried them for the past few weeks, possibly because they gave the required color notes to the toilettes, r Chiffon and Taffeta. possibly because of the modish narrow-brimmed or brimless hat, which leaves the eyes exposed to the glare on a sunny day. Many of the new parasols are certainly lovely. Those most practical are of course the plain one-tone effects. In dark or medium colorings, and of these there is ample supply in all the fashionable colorings. Taffeta Is much in evidence among parasols, as it is everywhere, changeable taffetas, plain or shirred, being used for the cover, pinked frills, ruches or cordings and puffings forming the trimming. One taffeta parasol was trimmed with three larger puffs. Another was entirely covered in narrow ruffles. In line with some of the quaint taffeta sunshades are the frilled effects in airiest materials. A parasol may have a foundation of the filmiest of white or cream shadowlace with covering of filmy black lace, which reaches almost to the edge of the parasol, leaving the shaped points of the white lace to form a border. The lace covering is so transparent that the ribs of the parasol are visible. Or a shirred foundation Printed Lawn Trimmed With Violets. of soft silk may be veiled in chiffon caught here and there with little clusters of silken roses. Others have a plain silken foundation covered with shirred chiffon and rose trimmed. One parasol, for instance, has a foundation of soft silk with a deep border of shirred chiffon shaped in deep points at the top. There are large roses of chiffon placed at the lower point of the shirred chiffon border. EMBROIDERY A REAL ART Practically Only Workers of the Eaat Give to It the Required Care and Attention. It is said that embroidery is the mother of all needlecraft. Some enthusiasts claim that it is as great an art as painting or sculpture. There is much in early history that has been handed down to us in embroideries, which have depicted upon them certain events embracing historical persons of olden times. When embroidery was more or less young, the embroiderer was his own designer. As many men were interested some of the embroiderers, including both men and women, frequently devoted their entire lives to the work which authorities have agreed in calling one of the finest of arts. Now, however, in this rapidly twirling time, embroidery has degenerated into nothing more than a pastime, and rarely is there an embroiderer who works lovingly and with thought of posterity, except, perhaps, over a baby's layette. But for really artistic embroidery, which is made with the idea of its lasting more than one gen eration, there is practically nothing being made by occidental fingers. ! tasaasa J il l. . jupauee anu i ninese embroiderers yet take tneir work seriously and labor patiently and lovingly, and there may be here and tfrero a piece of occ.dental church embroidery, modern ytt worthy of comparison with the wonderful art of medieval times. The Venetian stitch is a medieval ttltch vhich works up beautifully, particularly when combined with punchwork. It is a stitch which was re
Another tub shaped parasol has a deep border of chiffon and trimmings of narrow frills of chiffon. Taffeta is often used in "combination with chiffon and maline. One r. markably attractive parasol of taffeta and chiffon had the upper part of gray with a deep shirred border of soft rose chiffon which has a grayish tinge. At each rib, on the joining line of the taffeta and chiffon, there is placed a small flat rose of the rose chiffon. A chiffon frill edges the parasoL Hand painted motifs are shown on some of the handsomest parasols. One i- irasol of taffeta, for instance, has a wreath of roses in each panel painted in natural colors. There is a deep 'rill of chiffon finishing the edge of the parasol.
FOODS FOR HOT WEATHER Matter That Is Worthy of the Most Careful Attention That Can Be Given It. Much of the irritability of the human race is caused by overindulgence in unbalanced meals composed of badly cooked foods. The modern, thrifty housewife plans her meals so as to secure the best diet for her family. During the hot months heat-producing foods fats, sugar, starches, heavy puddings and pies and fried things should not be eaten, but rather those which are easily digested and cooling to the blood. The business in which the breadwinner of the family is engaged must be considered when planning tli meals. The man or woman leading a sedentary life requires foods easy of digestion and assimilation. This class of people does not require as much food as that engaged in muscular labor. The latter class needs heavier meals, but these should be less burdensome than in winter. For both classes too much cannot be said about masticating one's food. The teeth were made for this purpose and many ills would disappear if food was not bolted into the stomach, which is too often overtaxed. Salads rich with mayonnaise or boiled dressing should never appear at dinner, but bo served for luncheon or sLpper. Green or fresh vegetable salads with a simple oil and vinegar dressing are the proper thing for dinner at all seasons. Potatoes can be eliminated from the menu some days end in their place substitute macaroni, rice, hominy, beans, peas and other starchy vegetables. Woman's World. COTTON GOODS IN THE TUB Colored Materials May Be Washed Without Injury if Simple Precautions Are Taken. To wash colored cottons, dissolve one-half a cup of salt in hot w ater, stirring thoroughly, then add cold water enough to cool it. Put the garment in and let it stay fifteen or twenty minutes, long enough to set the color. Then w ring out and rinse in clear, cold water, changing the water often, until it is not discolored. When this has been done, the garment may be washed in the usual manner, with any pure white soap, and if ordinary care is taken and the garment is hung in a shady place to dry it will look clear and the colors will not fade or run. Black silk may be cleaned by 6ponging with a tablespoon of vinegar to one of water, with a few drops of ammonia added, this mixture being applied with a sponge. Or you may sponge with one part of beer to two parts of water; also steep an old black glove in vinegar and dilute in water, and clean with this. If you spill coffee on a colored wash dress, dip it quickly in clear, cold water and thoroughly rinse it.

Buttons are peculiarly decorative this season. 1 Normandy-medici and cow bov collars are worn by all women from sixteen to sixty. Small panarna hats are trimmed with scarfs of heavy white chiffon or richly colored ribbon. The low, broad crowned derby Is the best hat for riding, though some women wear sailor hats in summer Pique in the now soft, finish is very fashionable again for tennis frocks, and also as facings for washing shirts. blazed straws are still smart, esoelift 9 a J ' ciauy in the black and colored effects. but the trend is toward the unelazed al'-white midsummer hats. An attractive feature of the new waists is that the backs are as prettyas the fronts. All waists have the loose blouse effect and are lltted in very slightly under the arras. A fine quaV, of white French voile Is the material usually used.
GROWLERS ARE HAPPY
HOW THE BRITISHER GETS H?S GREATEST SATISFACTION. Writer Probea Mysteries of Numerous Complaints Safety Valves for Disgruntled Found in Newspapers, Public Officials, Etc. Just as the proverbial old lady was never happy unless she was miserable, so the average Britisher extracts his greatest satisfaction from a downright houest growl, says a writer in London Answers. No one can justifiably call us a nation of grumblers, and yet on every hand we hear complaints, loud and penetrating. It is our right and prerogative to growl, and growl we do, as a kind of habit. The baby growls because its clothes are too tight or its bottle not up to schedule time in its appearance. The J ,hCaU,r 7 aTV7 too soon.

Old age, again, is only too frequently typified from beginning to end as one reverberating grumble. In the curious psychology of the human race there is not to equal the joy of a growl well aired. You feel terribly angry because the 5:05 train from the city to your home has run late for nearly a week, and you write a stfnging, virulent, scorching, crushing letter to the manager of the particular railway company entangled in your wrath. All the time you kuow full well that the manager keeps a kind of tame, shellbacked, armor plated assistant who will contentedly post you a cold acknowledgement and drop your compfaint into the waste paper basket. You understand all this quite clearly, and yet you are satisfied, for the writing of that vitriolic letter has put you right with yourself. Growls are just safety valves for over-wrought feelings. Picture the old lady who writes a frantic letter to the local newspaper anent the paucity of policemen in her quaint su burban backwater. Sceine her flam. ing words in the majesty of urint. shp marshals each paragraph as an imag ' inary constable truardinc ner Ufa property. Her efforts have brought broughi her both joy and security, but were she to analyze the matter she would realize that she has merelv ilattered herself into the belief that her mighty missive has set in motion the police of the county, while, as a matter of fact, no one takes any notice. Of all the vast army of growlers, the farmer is surely the worst offender. He complains if the sun is not shining in one field rain fnnw in another, and gentle, drying breezes are not blowing in a third all simultaneous. And after the farmer, commend me to the amateur gardener. Public officials, were they not thickskinned, would all be made subjects for the lunacy commissioners by the frequency with which growls rain upon them. Editors of all classes of papers come in for many grumblers, and the reverend gentlemen who act as our spiritual advisers get more than their share of circulating complaint. Everybody, from the belated errand boy with the groceries to the most voluble politician, earns opprobrium from someone, and the people who growl most are usually those who are happiest, for their pent-up feelings have full play and outlet. Our Statesmen. Ambrose Bierce, the brilliant satirist, gave, at a dinner in Washington, a few political definitions. "A conservative," said Mr. Bierce. "is a statesman who is enamored of existing evils, while a radical would replace them with others."
