THE FIRST WORLD
have always had a very warm
feeling for that woman who
said: There is u satisfac-
ton about being well dressed
that religion cannot give"
/ have been buying my fall
and winter clothes and have
had a perfectly good time doing
1t.
First there were the street
clothes. wear white when l
can; it is my favorite color and l
always have two or three white
street SUITS. One that l like very
much this winter is of white cor
duroy made with a plain narrow
skirt, and a belted coat, the skirts
of which are sharply cut away in
front. The waistcoat is of white
kid buttoned with old silver but
tons. An old silver clasp holds
the belt at the waist.
With 1t I wear a white plush
hat that comes well over my head

the top a meringue made OF the
whites of the eggs and a half cup
of sugar.
DREAMED APPLE PIE.
Pare, core and quarter sweet
apples. Put them into a pudding
dish with a few spoonfuls of
water to prevent burning. Cover
closely and cook till tender but
not broken. Add two tablespoon
fuls of sugar to each cupful and
let them get cold in the syrup.
Then cut into thin slices or tiny
dice. Roll out some puff paste
quite thin; line a pie plate and
sprinkle with flour. Lay on an
other crust and bake until
brown. When ready to serve
open the crusts. spread the lower
one with the stewed apple, cover
with whippd cream, put on the
top crust and sprinkle that with
powdered sugar.
APPLE SALAD.
Green and red uncooked apples
may be scooped out and filed
with popcorn, nuts, celery, and
some other fruit. Mix this COM
bination with the pulp of the
apple and bind together with
mayonnaise. Garnish with mas
turtium, grape or other leaves.

What Is Jealousy? What
Is Life?

What Is Jealousy? What
Is Life?
Dear Miss Grey: / read
in the paper the other day
where "a fellow (signing
himself Jack) gave his opin-
ion on Jealousy.
He says that your own
happiness does not depend
on any but yourself. Now
i am particularly a free
lover myself, but L can't
agree with him. If your
own happiness doesn't de-
pend on any but yourself,
why do you write letters?
Why is that glad feeling
when you meet someone?
just believe you are not glad
and everything is all right,
is that it?
Jealousy is all imagina-
ton, l think. Why should
we be jealous? Can you an
swer that? II you can,
why should we love anyone
but ourselves? What is life
anyway? Do you think it is
worth living for the trouble
ii brings? ANOTHER JACK.
A.-Jack meant that W,
should be happy in loving 9th
ers; but too strong to be hur
by the mistakes of others
Surely no man or woman SHOULD
suffer for another's wrong, ant
)y making ourselves immune ant
wholly unselfish, we are bette
.bie to help the ones We love.
Jealousy, as you say, is large
y Imagination. 1t is not life
)ut human weakness, tina
brings unhappiness. Life, I be
ieve, lives on forever, and thi
human life is but one stage o
,ur development. Yes, l believe
life is worth all the trials w,
nay have. Have you ever look
I'd upon these trials as chances
% exercise your power for over
wrong, just as a differen
)iece of music Is exercise for ;
or a hard problem a
'chool for the pupil.

my outing coats and sweaters I
do not wear a high collar. My
sweater is blue and white and /
wear 1t with white hat and a
white broadcloth skirt. 1t is a
jolly thing for a morning tramp.
The tailored suit is the only
thing for the street and for the
girl who must count her pennies
| would advise that she put most
of her money into her street
dress, as she will wear 1t most. If
she is under 80 and slender, the
French lingerie blouses are fine
to wear with it, but for "fair-fat-,
and-forty' a waist of some soft
material that blends with the
skirt material Is better.
In colors for the fair girl there
is nothing prettier than the taupe
shade of gray. I like 1t so we'll
that l have taupe or moleskin
plush gown and three-quarter
coat for the cooler days. / don't
like to see the color on a dark
woman. But this year the bru-
nette can wear all shades of
brown or green and be in fashion.

JUST ONE LAST WORD
Have your street dresses the
smartest i'm your wardrobe.

AM STRONGLY AGAINST
- FLIRTING

Dear Miss Grey: / am
girl of IL and am strongly
against flirting; but this
matter has perpleXed me.
A month ago, as was
! about to go on a boat,
young men stepped up and
politely Offered to carry my
suitcase. 1 hesitated, but
allowed him to instead of
arguing. He was very gen.
. tlemanly, and we both tried
to refrain from watching
] each other, but failed, and
at last he spoke again.
He received my name and
; address, and I, his. This was
introducing ourselves, which
l think is very wrong; but
he has proved since to be q
good fellow, and regrets
this as much as 1 do. 1 have
not told my parents of this
because they would object
TO my keeping company
with him, and 1 feel 1 can
3 not give him up.
l am young to be talking
of love, / know; but my first
emotions of love have pass
ed away, and l know my
own mind. Miss Grey, is
this such a bad thing to do
after all? 1 hope you will
not advise me to give him
up. Thanking you.
VERY HAPPY.
A.-lntroducing yourselves II
lot nearly so bad as the fact tina
'ou have deceived your parents
Who have made so many sacri
ices for you. The young man. Il
leceitful, too, or he would no
lave encouraged you.
l do not say to give him up
tut / do say that both of you gt
o your parents and ask to b,
riends until you are a little old
r when you can decide for your
elves,

A BRIDES DIFFICULTIES

Dear Miss Grey: read
your columns with much in
terest, and wonder il you
can help me. / have been
married five months and l
want to tell you, dear Miss
Grey, l have a wOman's trou-
bles. / will admit l can't
cook very well, but my moth
er-in-law keeps inviting us
over to dinners, and of
course she is u first-cIass
cook. 1 don't like to go.
What is a good cook book
one that shows quick ways
of meat baking-and how
long should 1 boil my pota-
toes? / have lots of trouble
in my cooking. Also how can
/ get out of going over to my
husbands mothers house for
meals? NO COOK.
Al am so sorry your are
jealous of your mother-in-law'!
for there are so many
things you could learn from her
She must be fine woman if she
is a first-class cook and has not
tormented your life out telling
you how to do things.
There is really no quick way
TO bake meats, for full time must
be given them to get thoroughly
done. Boil potatoes from 20 to
M y,,;pntac Tho y,,inuta th oy
are done remove, pour off the
water and set back on the fire a
few moments, shaking them gent
y. This will make them mealy.
I am sure If you will ask your
to show you some
things. She will be pleased, and
you will both be benefited.

GOLDEN GULCH.

The comedy drama, Golden
Gulch" given at Woodmen Hall last
Friday evening by the pupils of the
Toledo High School drew large
attendance and was indeed play
of mreit. The parts were we'll
placed as each actor seemed to
throw an air of individualism into
his or her part. Prof. Weber de-
serves especial praise for the way
in which he drilled the girls and
bows as this was the first appearance
before the footlights for number
of those taking part. The make
ups also deserve mention, some of
them being really works of art,
something seldom seen in amateur
theatricals. The High School Or
chestra and the High School Glee
Club rendered several selections
which came as pleasant surprise
to the audience. The proceeds of
the evening amo united to $70.50
and netted $55 so clear which was
turned into the piano fund.

present and enjoyed the entertain
ment. The exercises consisted of
