KEEPING WHEATLESS DAYS Are you keeping wheatless Mondays and Wednesdays In your home? The responsibility of supplying our associates in this war with wheat until neit summer has now shifted to your shoulders, Mrs. American Housekeeper. The farmer and the shipper have done their work as far as this wheat crop is concerned. The harvest has been gathered, an ample supply reserved for home use, and the surplus has already been shipped to Europe. There will not be another wheat crop until summer. From now until then every loaf of bread that finds its way "over there" to the home of a worn and burdened mother or into the outstretched hands of a hungry child will mean that someone here in America has kept Wheatless Days. .And what doe3 this mean? It means first of all that no wheat cereals are served at breakfast. Do not serve rolls, muffins, hot cakes, or any kind of bread containing wheat flour for this entire day. Most of the so-called . War Breads or Liberty breads have one-half or one-third wheat flour. These are meant for other days. If you are going to keep Wheatless Days wholly, you must serve no bread on these days with a grain of wheat in it. . Can this be don3?

the for

Yes, it can and is being done today in patriotic homes from coast to coast. And this is the way the housekeepers are managing it. For breakfast and lunch or supper they are serving one of the many corn, oatmeal or rye hot breads that require no wheat whatsoever.

The two following recipes fill bill and require very little time preparation: Oatmeal Biscuits

cup oatmeal cup rye flour ' tablespoons fat tablespoons baking powder

liquid 1 teaspoon salt Mix the fat and flour, which

been sifted with the baking powder and salt.' Add enough liquid to make a soft dough. Turn on rolling board and roll to about .one-half inch in thickness. Cut with a floured biscuit cutter. Bake about 15 minutes. Cornmeal Dodger 2 cups corn meal 1 teaspoon salt 2 teaspoons fat is; cups boiling water Pour the boiling water over the other materials. Beat well. When cool, form into thin cakes and hake 30 minutes in a hot oven. Makes 14 biscuits.

HEART PROBLEMS

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I want to thank you for the splendid advice you give. I certainly appreciate it. I am nineteen years old and live with my uncle and aunt. They are so good to me but there is one thing that nearly drives me wild. Uncle has miser-

, able table manners.

He used to have nice manners but lately he is awful and it makes him furious if mother (aunt) asks him to be careful. He eats so fast and chews with his mouth open and smacks his lips till you can hear him in the next room. Besides he scrapes his plate with his knife and then lick it It makes me so nervous I nearly

fly to pieces and j

then I am ashamed

of !t afterwards. Me seems rather vroud of 1t and delights in the fact that he is stubborn. What would you do ? Thank you. SYLVIA. It certainly is annoying to be compelled to eat three meals a day with a

person whs hasn't table manners.- 1 1 do not believe it would do much good for yo:i to say anything to your uncle. I

.List try to keep your own table mannrs fbove reproach and thus show just liow annoying his manners are to others.

Revelations of a Wife

Broquin's. Then Jack said almost curtly: "Wait here. I don't think it will be necessary for you to go Inside, and it might, be embarrassing for you." He fairly ran up the steps and disappeared inside the door. So anxious was I to know what would be the result of his inquiry that I leaned far forward in the machine watching the door of the Broquin for Jack's return. I did not realize my imprudence in doing this until I heard my name called jovially. "Well, well, Mrs. Graham, I suppose you are on your way to our shack. Won't you give me the pleasure of riding with you?" Hat in hand, black eyes dancing in malicious glee. I saw standing before me, Harry Underwood, of all people! What Harry Underwood Said If I had been asked to name the person of all in the world whom I would have wished not to meet in this embarrassing predicament of mine, I should have said promptly, "Harry Underwood." However, here he was, very much in evidence, and 1 had to think swiftly.

BACK TO THE RESTAURANT "All right, sir," replied the chauffeur. Drug store right near entrance to the park." . It really was but a minute, but it seemed hours before we stopped again, this time in front of a drug store. While the taxi was rushing along Jack had asked me to describe the rings to him. "A solitaire, quite large, and a plain gold wedding ring, with 'R. G. to M. S.' inside," I said. When he returned from the telephone his face was downcast. "As fast as you can back to the restaurant," he said. As he sat down he sighed h?a'"v. An Unlucky Chance Meeting "I see they did not find them," I said despondently. "Xot yet, but they will search the floor at once." "Suppose some dishonest waiter should find them and pocket them." Jack tried to smile reassuringly at me but it was a dismal failure. "Don't try to borrow trouble ahead, little girl. Rather, hope that they will have found them by the time we reach the restaurant." "But suppose that should hanpen. and we should suspect it. could wo have the waiters searched? Would the police " , . "Margaret," Jack's tone was almost impatient, "the police are the last people I want to have know of this. What the police know the newspapers know and above all things we must keep your name out of the newspapers in connection with this loss." I sank back in my corner, thoroughly frightened. Jack's voice and words showed plainly he thought the situation serious. Neither of us spoke again until the taxi drew up in front of

Had Lillian told him that I was not going to accompany Dicky to dinner at their home because of my engagement to dine with Jack, and was he standing here at the door of the taxi from malicious mischief? Or was he simply pursuing the general annoyance of me. which had appeared to be his purpose ever since he had met me? Whatever his motive, he must be sent, about his business, I realized that. "You're surely going to .give me a lift," he persisted, his eyes fixed audaciously on my face, his hand on tho taxi door. "I'm sorry," I said as smoothly ar. possible, "but you see I am not going in the direction of your home. Didn't Mrs. Underwood tell you that I was not coming with Dicky for dinner, but perhaps would join you later? I have an engagement to dine with my cousin who has just returned from a year's absence in South America." A little shiver of disgust ran through me as my lips uttered the falsehood so smoothly. It seemed to me that I was launched, through no fault of my own. upon a course of deceit. But not for anything could I allow this man to know that I already had dined with Jack, and that m' cousin was even now hunting wildly in the restaurant for my wedding and engagement rings which I had lost there.
