No Use for ChnperOnes.

To the Editor:
After following the advice OF Chip Chase and
others, which failed to accomplish It's purpose l
have come 10 the conclusion to leave the young
lady and the chaperone alone, and seek other at
tractive young ladies' who can be trusted without
being under the watchfui eye OF their parents.
When I call upon young ladies wish to see
them alone as do not consider myself a
capable entertainer for a whole family. and !
think every reader OF ''The Evening World
will agree with me. l would like to hear some
views from the ladies on the subject OF calling.

The cracks in loaves are caused usu-
ally by too much -four being used In the
kneading, making the loaf too stiff.
When the batter is set at night sufi-
cient -four is added to make 1t pour
thickly from spoon. In the morning.
when kneading, only enough flour should
be added to keep the dough from stick
ing to the hands and the board, and
practice in kneading makes this guam
tity much less than at the first trial.
Bread should be turned in the oven while
baking. SO that all sides may be baked
equally. or be exposed to equal heat. as
this sometimes makes the cracks.

Answer to Dog and Hare Problem.
To the Editor:
In answer to the Dog and Hare problem. the
hare takes six PAGES to the dogs Ave. therefore
while the dog takes one pace the hare takes one
and one-nfth PAGES. Nine PAGES Of the hare being
equal to seven PAGES OF the dog. one pace Of the
dog equals one and two seventh PAGES Of the hare.
Therefore. while the dog takes one pace, which
Is equal TO one and two-seventh PAGES Of the
hare, the hare takes one and onc-nfth PAGES and
the dog therefore gains the difference between
one and two-sevenths and one and one-ifth or
three-thirty- fifth pace Of the hare To gain nifty
PAGES OF the hare the dog will have to take fifty
divided by three thirty hfths OF $50 1-3 PAGES. in
which time the hare will take 700 PAGES.
