Corn: A change to clear and cold

Concerning Eggs.

The best cold storage eggs are gathered
and stored when the hen is at her best
and the weather most favorable The
average hen in our latitude lays from
sixty to one hundred eggs per year. Most
of these are laid in the months from
March to September. inclusive. She lays
few eggs in October. but unless espe-
cially housed and fed for the purpose, she
will not lay in the months of November
and December. Along in January We get
few eggs from the South, and some Of
lay intermittently. but the supply is very
small An April egg is the finest egg laid
in any season of the year. Therefore
1t is the finest cold-storage egg. It is kept
in very nearly perfect condition in mod
ern cold storage and is worth more to-
day in the wholesale market than many
Of the receipts coming directly from the
country. as these have been held from

SOME REASONS WHY
WEDDINGS ATTRACT
Some Go Out of Pure Curiosity,
Others to See Pretty
Clothes.

What is the reason for this wedding
mania among women
why is 1t that at all fashionable we'd
dings one sees so many women inside or
outside of the church. fascinated by the
spectacle of somebody getting married|'
Some women go to make notes Of the
brides dress and the costumes Of the
visitors,
My presence at weddings is simply in
order to observe the hats and dresses OF
the ladies'" said one woman They
! serve as ideas for my own dresses and
those of my friends.
Quite a number of dressmakers at
tend weddings for the same reason as
myself Lady X. wore this at So-and-
Sos wedding they tell their clients, and
SO greatly enhance their chance of get

lat fashionable weddings one sees the
highest perfection of taste in women's
wear"
One woman says:
II go to weddings because I can't help
going to them. / like to see what the
bride looks like. whether the bridegroom
is tall and good-looking, and how the
guests and friends are dressed.
when anybody of note is going to be
married. T. look up their pedigrees and
find out all l can about them. Then,
when / see them in the flesh. 1t is more
thrilling to me than n play"
Other reasons why women go TO we'd
dings are as follows:
1T is because a wedding Is the most
interesting thing in the world to a wom-
an.
II know that IL am passing a church
where a wedding is in progress. have to
stop and wait for the bride to come out.
Why? I cannot say"
A practical business woman said:
Woman has mad curiosity for sight
seeing. a wedding is a free show and
provides a fund of matter for converse
ton. But curiosity is at the bottom OF
it-that and envy"

| At least two months ago I had a call
from a most anxious mother whose mind

| the girl had had all the cultural advant-
ages which discriminating parents could
possibly give. for some strange reason or
other. made the mothers disappointment
in the trend of her aspirations all the

an idle, useless future all the days that
should follow her marriage--the most
vital crisis in a girls life.
Unfortunately for the mothers plans
the Divinity which shaped the girl had
given her ability and ambition. which.
from her childhood, would not let her
alone. a circumstance which brought anx-
iety TO her mother and a serious unrest
to the girl herself.
Why She Chose Miss Burke.

previous to the feast. and all they need
at meal time is a simple browning in the
oven.
Large and substantial roasts are not
only hard TO prepare and serve, but also
fill the oven to the exclusion OF every
thing else. so II is advisable to have deli
cious little steaks, filiet OF beef. with
canned peas and pornme de terre au

OF grated cheese.
Most salads may, without serious IN

Certainly for desserts nothing could be

hot maple or chocolate sauce and stuffed
waters, or more soul-satisfying than a

may be either ordered from the caterer
or made at home early. With bonbons,
coffee and cigars this provides for a
really elaborate dinner OF eight courses.
which could be prepared for that matter
by the housewife herself in the fore

EVERY GIRL MUSTLIVE HER OWN LIFE
Declares that, Aside from Tai

Il was all waiting and that nothing would

and she must he prepared to wait And.
oh. how discouraEing II all is! But when
you do succeed the Joy of 1t makes up
for ali the diappointments and heart
aches that have gone before.
Nothing but Prejudice.
About your mothers feeling in the
matter there seems to me but one thing
to say and that one Is that no one who
has that something in them which tells
them that they have the ability to make
a wonderful thing Of life can lay aside
the voice which calls them for the sake
of any other human being-and certain
ly not for the sake of prejudice For II
Is prejudice, my adear. this feeling Of
many mothers that their daughters are
going straight to perdition as soon as
they set foot on the dramatic boards. II
a mother has prepared her daughter
through all her adolescent years for those
Of maturity she will be safe anywhere
II a mother has not done this her girl
will be safe nowhere. least Of all In the
sort of idle existence which most moth
ers cherish as the crowning point Of sue

cannot shield her child from the expert
ences through which she must pass as
she travels life's road. Only the charac-
ter she has helped her girl build can do
this. IT is what We are that counts:
what We are that makes or breaks US.
And II is just because of this that
feel SO strongly that not even q mother
has the right 70 map out the life her
daughter shall leai-the profession she
shall follow. This is not. however, sug-
gestion that any girl should treat the
broader experience. tho loving advice and
solicitude OF her mother with disrespect.
for she can find no one in all this world
who means so well toward her. It Is just
simply that II is utterly impossible for
mother who has never felt the call Of the
stage: the impelling force Of ambition:
the never-let-go hold OF ability: TO un-
derstand the workings of the mind Of her
young daughter who Is urged to action
by all OF these things"
This, with a few other comments, con-
stitutes Miss Burke's letter. which hope
every mother of every girl who feels
herself called by any special work will
read, and read, and read again.
