FEW DAYS Of REST
KILL SPRING FEVER
Change of Scene Best Way
To Throw Off Tired
Feeling,

Most of us women wish we had the
grubIike habit of taking fight when the
first hot days are upon us. When the
sun warns up the frozen earth TO give
the snowdrops their chance, when the
pussy willows show their fuzzy white
ness and the sky is enticiugly blue.
meal ordering. busting, and mending
become sordid drudgery.
Since few of US can cut loose from
duty even when Iassitude claims us,
what is 70 be done to make housekeep-
ing duties more endurable until we
grow accustomed to warm days?
The woman who E5% had the care of
a house all winter could try to take a
few days off in the spring. She needs
the rest, and her house viii run more
smoothly for taking it. Change of air
is preferable, but if that is out Of the
question. she should rest at home.
stop hustling, shirk some of the daily
tasks, tell the family YOU are going to
take a vacation, then take it by sitting
wrapped up in a steamer chair or lying
on cot with every window open bet
ter yet or sheltered perch. Sleep If
YOU can; if not drink in the fragrant
spring air and doze the hours away.
One day OF absolute rest In the open

ing problems with the Zest OF a bride
in her first home.
Change of Scene.
An old housekeePcr found a young
friend tired and discouraged last spring.
Life seemed a burden 10 the girl, she
had grown captious, husband and babies
bored her. You are worn out" said
the woman, go away for week and
life win seem less drab.
Cant afford it, replied the girl, the
family would think me crazy to take
vocation in spring
The older woman knowing the young
couple had come TO a place where worn
nerves meant crusty tempers and fu-
tlIre unhapplneSs asked the girl TO visit
her for two days, living bat a few
blocks apart though they did.
The change and RESI- from household
worries transformed the younger WOm-
an, which so pleased her hostess that
she straightway opened her home to
ether friends who were worn out by
winter Of housekeeping.
Tighten the Diet.
Another way to fight the effect OF the
season is to tighten the diet for a time.
Heavy foods as the weather warns up
makes the liver sluggish. the brain
heavy, and the body inactive Instead of
eating as much meat as during the win
ter, cut it out for a week or so, serve
plenty OF greens. salads and fruits and
your energy viii return.
Let up on your engagements for a
few dayS-sprinS fever IS often nothing
but natures protest against OVERRIDING.
Take life easy instead of getting into
a mad whirl Of cleaning; OF ii you must

is not exhausted.

though you could no longer drag

BNAL YES DESPAIR
OR JOY Of HOSTESS
Unless Carefully Selected
and Prepared They Are
Unfit For Use.

oysters can be the 10y Of The hostess
or her despair There are few articles
OF food that are more of a stand by
for the family meal, as well as to
help out in formal meals. Yet, with
their constant use. it IS surprising how
often they arc Enpalatable from lack OF
OF binary care in buying or preparing.
Possibly there is more cause for com
plant in serving oysters than in any
other way. Much of the fear of typhoid
germs could be avoided by a few simple
precautions
Know your dealer. Whether he will
confess it or not. he knows whence his
oystcr supply comes. Let him under
stand that you viii not put up with
oysters fattened in anything but pure
water, and il you are good pay he will
take pains to crafty your demand
II is much easier to be sure of your
oysters now that various health boards
have made it a point to bestir them
selves about the supply.
See Them Opened.
Another point for the typhoid fearful
IS to see their oysters opened. If the
juices are ali right there is apt to be
little danger As it is not convenient to
keepers have their oysters opened at
home
This need not be the trouble that it
seems IL one buys the short knives used
by the dealers and takes a lesson or so
from professional as to just how to
split the shell most expeditiously- This
knowledge once gained by the house
keeper, changing servants are easily in
structed.
The epicure, even though a germ
crank, would never stand for raw oys-
ters whose shells have been smashed
open with dire effects on the juices.
She would also have few service
don'ts that are too often forgotten.
Don't serve raw oysters out of their
shells. even though you have wonderful
oyster plates that you hate TO hide
Don't serve them lukewarm. There
are guests who can only bolt an oyster
pen to be of sickeninS warmth social
tragedy may result
Do Not Overice.
Don't overice. A cold oyster does not
mean one given a bath in melted ice,
nor should one be compelled 10 dig
through icebergs to find their half dozen
bivalves. To rest the shells of bed
of cracked ice for half an hour before
the course will usually give just the
right temperature.
Don't make the mistake of serving big
oysters at woman's luncheon Men
may know that a Lynnhaven is juicier
and more delicious than the boasted
Blue Point. but the few women who
know ii will not acknowledge that their
mouths are equal to the swallowing
feat
Don't overcondiment or oversauce
The true epicure uses just a bit of
lemon, knowing that more destroys the
oyster flavor, the man or woman who
does not share the taste OF England's
George in oysters will go slow on ia
baSco. horSeradish, and catsup lest that
dreaded bad oyster slip down IN

Don't overlook Many things may go
wrong when one forsakes the oyster
