PROFESSIONAL TIP
ON OMELETS

Young Mr.. Married Six Months
decided one of these Lenten morn
ings that his stomach craved an
omelet. Boiled eggs, fried eggs
poached eggs, scrambled eggs-all
of them were chestnuts. An ONE
let would save his life. he was
sure.
Mrs. Married Six Months got
down the cook book they gave her
at cooking school. Crack! went
three eggs, and slap! went the
skillet. Presto-it was on the plate
before him.
Butt wasn't an omelet. Young
Mr.. Married Six Months, with de.
cision born of years at hash count
er and boarding house. wasn't slow
in denying it. 1t was watery. 1t
lacked the consistency of the ONE
let he knew of old. In fact, it
would have passed anywhere as
plain scrambled eggs.
Mrs Married Six Months, backed
up by the cooking book, insisted it
was an omelet. Next time young
Mr. Married Six Months took lunch
downtown. he asked the cook in
the short order galley about it.
Your wife shouldn't have put
milk into 1t" that sage decreed.
Young Mr.. Married Six Months
went home with the tip. He has
omelets that are omelets now.

Longevity Of the Elm.
rom the Boston Transcri]

There was but one regret that over
shadowed the brilliant inauguration at
Harvard. and that was the sight Of the
elms. No amount OF previous description
could give an adequate impression % the
poor locked trees. but the hot October
sun brought quick recognition of the
fact. for there was no refuge from its
heat except the thin and pall-like shade
cast by pruned and stubby branches. OF
all the wedding guests at the feast the
elms alone were not In bridal attire, and
the comfort and beauty OF the yard both
suffered.
Through the disfguremnt Of these trees
II is only too easy to realize how sensi-
tive are the graceful elms. Prey to al
most every caterpillar and beetle that
appears they fight with the full strength
OF their prime for the green leaves OF life.
1t is harder to realize that even under
the most favorable circumstances the
American elm il very short-lived. The
average tree does not reach one hundred
and fifty years OF life: IL Is the excep-
an occasional Methuselah can reckon two
hundred and fifty years. Authorities ques-
ton IL any vestige OF root or stump is in
existence Of an elip OF three hundred
years. The rapidity with which the elm
grows and the great size 1t soon attains
blind the world to its short term Of life.
To New Englanders the ''old elm is CO.
temporaneOus with the old village. but
when We reckon the age of Our average
old homestead We find that the elm
which was generally planted some little
time after the first settlement is little
over two hundred years in age. With us
that constitutes age. but In tree life. COM
pared at least with the life of the oak.
IL is an ephemeral existence.
No place can bring the distinction be-
tween the life Of the elm and oak more
yividly before us than the Beaver Brook
reservation The largest of the oaks
there reckoning from rings OF growth
in trees that have ben cut down is over
one thousand years old. Agassiz com,
puted that IL could have sheltered Left
Ericsson under its branches and Unjust

Columbus rediscovered America. On the
other hand. the great torso Of the Waiver
ley elm is probably not 50 much as two

Some Photographic "Don'ts."

From the Boston Post
Do you know any task much harder
than to sit for photograph? Here are
some 'don'ts' which were given by Ar
expert artist in this line:
Don't wear blush white or any pale
shade except cream color.
Don't wear gray. yellow or tan. Black.
dark gray, blue OF red are decidedly the
best
Don't wear stripes OF plaids or checks.
Don't wear silk. satin any glossy
material. Lace trimmings usually come
out very clearly.
Don't wear a hat. as they look queer
when the style changes.
Don't arrange the hair deliberately. II
will give a fixed look. Velvet or soft
WOODEN goods take particularly well.
Don't have a profile picture unless you
know you possess a good one, and not
many can boast of that.
Don't argue about the position. Go to
good photographer and allow him to
do the posing. and IL you wear gla sses,
don't remove them for the sitting. II
you do the result will be strained and un-
natural looking eyes. Above all try TO
forget that the photograph is being taken
