Her husband knew that she is never

ADELE'S
ARGUMENT

I don't know Of another single sub
iect about which 50 many failacies
exist as that Of feminine oddities
said Adele AS she said IT she looked
at her husband in a way that meant
she was in the mood for a discussion
So he contradlcted her at once, just
to oblige.
You can't deny, my dear, that wo-
men are less straightforward than
men" he said.
She laughed derisively. DO you
really cling to that Gid theory" she
asked. IF you do, you have simply
accepted what has been handed down
70 you without ever trying 70 apply
it."
Apply it for me, II you can" he
suggested
Il can give you a dozen examples" !"
Adele replied. loftily.
"One will do, he answered.
Wen come back to that said
Adele. after a brief pause. What |
was thinking of particularly was that
women are supposed to be vainer than
men, As a matter Of fact, men are
twice as fussy about their appearance
as women are, and it takes them
twice as long to get ready to go any
where. Another thing Women are
supposed to be more easily fattered
than men, and yet every girl in her
teens knows how to fiatter man, and
how to pretend that she believes his
batteries"
Yet you said they we're more
straightforward than men!"
Don't evade the point at issue,
said Adele, severely. This is some
ching altogether different. If girl
tells a man that he should never wear
anything but brown because 1t suits
him so well he will laugh at the idea
Of her supposing he gives thought
to his clothes and remark, carelessly,
4 really hadn't noticed just what color
this suit was; 1t is the weight Of the
material that guides my selection.
But, If you observe him from that
time on you will notice that every
thing he buys is brown; and he will
continue to be brown until some other
girl tells him something else.
Now, or. the other hand" contin-
ued Adele, warming to her subject, "if
a man tells a girl that she should
wear certain color she is pleased to
thank him for his advice and compli-
ments his discrimination until he feels
that no one has ever realized before

It was cats that were the cause OF

abundance Of air and light from the
air shaft on which 1t was situated.
He felt immensely pleased with his
new place, and retired to rest the

COOKING WITH souR MILK.
Vigorous Beating Necessary TO Make
It Mix Smoothly.

Some cooks decry the use Of sour
milk cookery, because Of the difficulty
Of mixing it smoothly with other in
gradients, and bit Of sour curd is
decidedly unpleasant thing to meet in
corn cake or muffin. This Is obviat-
ed by a few vigorous whirls of the egg
beater in the bowl or pitcher which
contains the sour milk. The curds and
whey are thus smoothly mixed, and
the thick milk can be poured from one
dish to another as easily as cream.
The proper proportion Of soda is
one-half of a level teaspoonful to each
cupful of thick sour milk As gas be-
gins to escape as soon as the acid
meets the soda, the latter should not
be dissolved in the milk, but like bak-
ing powder should be sifted with the
