Jl MRJ ELIZABETH THOMPSON

Dear Mrs. Thompson: (1) I am a girl fifteen years old and am keeping company at present with a boy of eighteen. He does not live here and he promised to write to me. I have only been out with him three times,

but he is very nice and I thinV a lot of him already. M y parents do not object to my going with him and they also like him. Should 1 go with him steady if he continues to be nice and cares for me? (2) He is buying a motorcycle. Should I go riding with him if he asks me? (3) When writing to him should I use the salutation, "Dear Floyd"

or -Dear Friend?" ANXIOUS (1) You are about three years too young to go with boys at all. A girl should not go with one boy exclusively until she is in her twenties. (2) Whether you should go riding

with him or not depends eo much upon the kind of friends you are. If you "go with each other" and think you are in love, you should not go motorcycle riding; but if you consider yourself merely a little girl and go for short sides around the neighborhood Just for the sport of it, it is all right if your parents do not object. (3) Either salutation is correct Dear Mrs. Thompson: I have been corresponding with a soldier for the last six months. I never met h'.m, but we exchanged pictures and I think a great deal of him. The friend who gave him my address also speaks very highly of him. In the last few letters fie has been asking me if I would marry him. Do you think I would do right by accepting the proposal? I am eighteen years of age. G. G. It is a very serious matter to become engaged. Do not consider his proposal until yau have had an opportunity to know him personally and for a long enough time to become familiar with his tendencies which would not reveal themselves in correspondence. Some people are very clever letter writers and not a bit attractive in person.

coffee with the salad. I will choose the desert later." I had to admit that my mother-in-law had chosen an appetizing luoch, even if she had been arbitrary about its selection. I leaned back and gazed into the immense old fire-place near which our table was stationed. But our table, the nearest one to the fire-place, was altogether too close for real comfort. My mother-in-law had selected it when we entered the dining room. I wanted to suggest then, much as I love to sit before the open fire, that we would be apt to fini it uncomfortable, but she was so chilled from the winds along the sea wall that I did not venture the advice. I undid the fastenings of my cloak, removed the garment and laid it across the back of my chair. "Will you not be too warm with your coat on?" I asked. "Shall I not help vou off with it?" In some inexplicable way she twisted the remark into a reflection on tier judgment in choosing a table. "No, thank you." she returned stiffly. "I was chilled through. That was the reason why I chose this table. Of course younger blood is warmer," with an acid smile, "so. if you cannot stand the heat, perhaps we had better move."

Fried Liver Potato Cakes Combination Salad Graham Bread Butter Lemon Cream Pudding Coffee FOR WAR GARDENERS. Here are a few suggestions to war gardeners. Treat potatoes for scab before plantIns. Make a second sowing of peas, radishes, spinach and lettuce as soon as the first planting is out of the ground. The first planting of peas should be covered with about one inch of soil. Subsequent planting should be deeper. If a heavy rain following planting causes the ground to form a crust over onion seed or small plants rake it with a rake. Carrots, beets and parsnips are slow to come up. A few brcp'rfast radish seeds in the row will mark it so it can be cultivated before the roots are up.

THE TABLE. New Fish Loaf Take two slices cod or halibut steaks, about two pounds. On the bsttom of your baking pan put three slices of fat pork. On this place one layer of fish, sprinkle with salt and pepper. Mix one cup soft bread crumbs, little salt, pepper and one-quarter cup malted butter, pork fat cr bacon fat, and spread over the fish slices. Cover with the other slice of fish, sprinkle with salt and peper and place three or tour slices of fat perk on top. Bake about thirty minutes. Just before it is done remove pork, scatter one-half cup cracker crumbs over fish, replace pork and brown in oven. Serve with drawn butter sauce to which you add a hard-boiled egg or a white sauce. If you haven't milk enough for the white sauce use milk and water.

murmured. "Crab flake salad, lobster salad " My mother-in-law cut him short. "I do not mean salads. I mean meats." He was evidently an inexperienced waiter, for he fumbled with the menu card and started to look through the list of meats. His slow movements seemed to exasperate the elder Mrs. Graham, for she took th? card f;om his hand and put up her lorgnette. "If this is a specimen of the service," she commented acidly, "it strikes me that the diners who had Sam Fraunces for a host were much better off than we are." "I Was Chilled Through." I made no reply, not knowing indeed, but what any answer of mine might irritate her further. She scanned the menu frowningly. "Is there anything special you want to eat?" she demanded in a tone that seemed to admit of no answer save the one I gave her. "No. just duplicate your own order," I said quietly. I had no idea of what she was going to order, but it did not matter much to me. I was too much upset over the scene of a few moments before to care what food went into my mouth. The elder Mrs. Graham evidently approved of my decision. She turned to the waiter. "Two chicken salads, two orders of French fried potatoes, an order of olives and one of radishes and some French rolls. You may bring two cups of chicken broth before the salad, but be sure to have it. steaming hot. Bring two cup3 of

what she pleases to any one, no matter what wounded sensibilities she leaves in the wake of her words. I sighed wearily as I followed her to a table near he immense old fireplace, which held a glorious wood fire. My little spring of hope that sometime I might win my mother-in-law's friendship was fast withering. "The chicken salad is very good today." The waiter bent deferentially toward my mother-in-law. We were sitting at a table near the fireplace in Fraunees's Tavern, the old pre-revo-lutionary inn of downtown New York, which has been restored by the Sons of the Revolution. "Have you ever eafn the chicken salad here?" The elder Mrs. Graham asked the question of me sharply, totally ignoring the man at her elbow. "Yes, indeed, and I have found it very good," I replied. My mother-in-

law sniffed. "There isn't a restaurant!

A number of diners turned and stared frankly at us. and some of them could not conceal their smiles at my militant companion. To me there is nothing so painful as to be the object of attention in a public place. But from my slight experience with my husband's mother, I think I can count upon being subjected to many wondering stares if I accompany her on her trips. The elder Mrs. Graham has no

Total eclipses are happening somewhere in the world most of the time, but they get all over the world only about once in every three and a naif centuries. The big black shadow which will be caused by the moon swinging between the earth and the sun will sweep across the country at an almost unbelievable rate of speed. It will cut a diagonal swath across the United States about sixty miles wide, which will run through parts of Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Wyoming, Colorado, Kansas, Oklahoma. Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Florida. It will begin at sunrise, away over at the little island of Borodino, south of Japan. It will pass quickly across the Pacific, making the trip in about two hours and a quarter. Traveling at the rate of about two thousand
