When women everywhere get rid of
the idea that time spent in open air rec
reation is time wasted. we shall see a
finer race of human beings. The girls Of
the period have gone long way in ac-
ceptance of this heathful belief in fresh
air and exercise. American girls have
ever been admired for beauty and charm.

English women can no longer carry off
the palm from their American cousins for
enjoyment of outdoor exercise in all
weathers and for ability to take long
walks and rides. Their only remaining
advantage lies in the fact that we have
over here inherited a handicap in the
troublesome Puritan conscience which
makes us self condemnatory whenever we
are having a good time and inclines us to
be suspicious of our own rectitude when
we are devoting daylight to honest play

There are two articles on the food list
that do not receive the attention they de-
serve as spring medicines. They are
horse radish and rhubarb. Horse radish
quickens the sluggish blood and makes
one positively frisky Rhubarb is whole
some and cleansing to the system and is
usually prepared as sauce or in pie form.
n delicious way to serve it is to stew
the required amount with sugar and a
fiavoring of lemon peel. Line the bottom
of charlotte mold with bread cut to the
exact shape and the sides with lady
fingers, all dipped in melted butter. Fill
the center with stewed rhubarb, which
should be very moist, cover and bake
for an hour. Turn out and serve with
custard sauce.
Another rhubarb dainty is made by
combining this wholesome garden product
with oranges. Peel and remove the white
pith from a dozen large oranges, cut
them into slices and discard all seeds
Add the thinly peeled yellow rind of half
the oranges three pounds of graduated
sugar and two quarts of finely cut rhu-
barb. Cook gently for about thrce-quar-
tiers of an hour. stirring almost constant

The Favorite Girl.

There is the type of girl that everybody
likes. Nobody can tell exactly why, but
after you have met her you turn away to
some other woman and You say, Don't
you like Miss Grosvenor:" Now, the rea-
son you like her is subtle one Without
knowing all about her. you feel just the
sort of girl she is.
She is the girl who is not too bright
and too good to he able 10 find JOY and
pleasure all over the world.
She is the girl who appreciates the
fact that she cannot always have the
first choice of everything in the world,
says Woman's Life.
She is the girl who is not aggressive
and docs not find Joy in melting agrees
sive people.
She is the girl who has tact enough
not to say the very thing that will cause
the skeleton in her friends closet to rat
tie his bones.
She is the girl who, whether it is warm
or cold, clear or stormy, finds no fault
with the weather
She is the girl who, when you invite
her to any place, compliments you by
looking her best.
She is the girl who makes this world
a pleasant place because she is so pleas
ant herself.
And, by the bye, when you come to
think of it, isn't she the girl who makes
you feel she likes you, and therefore you
like her?

Some people have a curious fondness
for retaining small parcels of things that
are absolutely useless, such as pieces Of
some gown that was worn out and done
with years ago, odd pieces Of fur or
scraps Of lace too small to be of any use,
rolls of old fashioned trimming or morscls
of satin and brocade not large enough for
even crazy" patchwork. The old provcrh
about keeping n thing and its use will
come is open to an enormous amount of
abuse, IN common with all the old PROV
cribs.
Lydia, when changing houses last year,
spent much Of her time in grooming over
the endless accumuations of all kinds of
almost useless things not only in her
wardrobe and boxes, but all over the
house.
Do you remember what Charles Lamb
said when he and Mary were removing
from somewhere in Holborn to Totem
ham? lie complained that women had
always carloads of rubbish that they
must take with them wherever they 90.
And so we have. 1t is well to minimize
it if we can-to make periodical on
slaughts upon the accumulations and TO
dispense them.

Mrs. Emma p. Ewing. dean of the
Chautauqua Cooking school, tells Of one
saddening experience when she first be-
gan housekeeping. The art of cooking
was unknown to her and she looked for
ward with terror to the first visit of her
mother-in-law, who was a famous house
wife. She arrived and Mrs. Ewing be-
gan to serve dinner. The first course was
a hsh' which she had baked in a pan.
When she tried to lift it. she was at her
wits end. 1t stuck to the pan here. there
and everywhere She was ashamed to
have her motherin-law see the dilapda-
ton of the fish, so she rushed out for a
nelghbor to help. At last the fish was re-
moved by the aid Of a carving knife. a
fish slice, a spoon and a grddle cake
turner 1t was too broken to serve on the
platter, so the young cook, with tears in
her eyes, made a sauce and served it

md better pan for baking fish. There
was nothing of the kind in the stores, so
she found an intelligent tinsmith to carry
out her ideas. She had a piece of sheet
iron cut to fit loosely into n shallow bake
pan, and at each end of the tin she had
long handles attached When thoroughly

one. Since it is interesting, it is given

Girls with Bad Manners.

Ada c. Sweet in Woman's Home Com
panion, writing of what she says is the
national fault of our girls, says:
" 1t is painful to enlarge upon the lack
Of reverence, which is the second great
cause of our national trait of bad man
ners Every one should strive to make
up in mature life for the irreverence
which has marred childhood and youth.
y fine character is impossible without
great ideals, without awe for what is
majestic, respect for human achieve
ments, reverence for all good, human or
divine. The boy who calls the president
of the United States by nickname or
the girl who writes to him Familiarity,
asking for his autograph or photograph,
are to be pitied. They have not yet learn
cd even respect for great station con-
Ierred by the suffrage of Il mighty people,
1hey look down and nod at The president
The flies patroniZe the lion.
The great German Goethe in the
greatest passage in all his novels teaches
that there are three reverences to be
learned: First, reverence for what is
above us, for God and for all those who
show his power and truth; second, rev.
erence for those on level with us, as
each human soul is particle of divinity;
third, and greatest of all, reverence for
all below US, especially those in poverty,
suffering and humiliation. This last les
son Goethe pointed out to us as made
clear and illustrated by the life of the
founder Of Christianity. Cultivate rev
erence for all that is good, true and
beautiful, for the human soul in its great
ness and in its weakness. You may be-
lieye at first that no one is more wise
than You nor better. Smother that be-
lief for awhile and defer to others. Study
The best that is in the people around you.
Think more of them and less of yourself.
Try to make them comfortable and hap
py in all little ways. At heart cherish
high and unselfsh ideals. If the mass
Of ambitious American girls would do
this for awhile, the manners of Ameri-
cans would improve, for it is always
IN civilized lands the women who set the
standard of manners"

Pednntic Ideas of Home.

More than one advanced thinker on
domestic economy has predicted that the
home is doomed to extinction. AS rem
nant of patriarchal government it is said
to have no place among present day insti-
tutions. Leisure to develop individuality
liberty of action and equality of rights for
men and women with the care of chill
oren turned o~.-. to the state, will distin-
guish the golden age of progress"
Both time and energy have been wast-
ed in the home, says the pedantic thinker.
A dozen women bend over washtubs
where one woman in a public laundry
could do the same amount of washing. In
like number of kitchens breakfast is
prepared with corresponding waste,
where one kitchen and one dining room
would suffice for all. Children are train
ed by undisciplined mothers worried to
nervous prostration by their care. In the
future they will be turned over to state
chlldren's homes soon after birth, where
their daily life will be regulated by scien-
the pedagogues.

Standard oil Company Said TO he

The Los Angeles Express says that
II the STANDARD oil company has not
secured the majority OF oil holdings In
Texas II is only the question Of few
months before that great corporation
will be a top-notcher In that fertile PEE
troleum field.
II =. MCCrary, who has been operat-
ing at various parts Of Texas states
that II rs not denied that the Standard
company is In possession of the won
derful Lucas property with It's Guffy-
drilled gushers The Standard has not
only obtained right to this almost
priceless property but has its grasp
upon other Spndetop oil groups
through purchase of leases.
Mr. McCrary yesterday said. 1T Is
understood thoroughly at Beaumont
that Lucas & Guffy are Standard OIL
company representatives In that field.
Since the Standard has acquired prop
critics there work has slowed down to
a great extent. The talk of probable oil
markets for the Beaumont product now
Is regarded as insignificant, for the
Standard Is preparing 70 use petroleum
of that field for refining purposes.

however, that results Of tests have

IS almost a conviction among oil men
that frst-ciass Illuminating oil can
be secured by special process"
Los Angeles Is represented at Nacog-
dochcs, 20 miles northeast of Beau

name Of Gafley has 1000 acres Of land.
