One of our old bachelors moved from
one boarding house to another, until he
was sick and tired of it. The sameness
of the fare and bad cooking gave him
dyspepsia. So he set himself to work to
learn how to cook. He soon became pro-
ficient in the culinary art. Then he made
arrangements with a restaurant to be
allowed to cook his own meals. Now. he

meals. He can vary his bill of fare every
day for he can select just what his taste
calls for. He is now independent of board
ing houses. No need for him to marry to
get cook. He keeps a cook book at his
elbow as substitute for wife, and he
