AUNT. LANES HINTS
 TO HOUSEWIVES TO
 CUT COST OF LIVING

Its surprising" said Aunt Jane, what difference a trifie bit of work will make in the looks and taste of food Now the food served in a first class hotel is cooked the same way as one would cook it at home, but there's a difference in the service. The average housewife is not willing to devote the extra minute or two need ed to make an attractive dish out of inexpensive ingredients. She's really in a rut, and has one way of cooking and serving each particular dish.
 Take fplanking, for example. A small wooden plank costs but little and mackere1, haddock. cod. Boston bIuefish, or in fact any fair-sized fish served on a plank is a hundred times as attractive as the same fish served in the usual dish. And the plank really saves a. lot of work in the end. for instead of five or six vegetable dishes and a platter, there is one sim gle bit of wood to wash.
 There is nothing, occult about the operation either You just butter the plank we'll and lay your fish on it You can use a whole haddock, cod. hake, bluefish, rnackerel, and any oth- CT kind; or you can take slices of half- but or other fish, just as you wish Cover your fish with thin strips of strcaked salt pork, place the whole business Tn roasting pan ana pake 1t. When the fish is cooked you take mashed potatoes and any other vege- table you may wish and place them around the fish.
 .If you have any artistic talent, you can do some fine decorative work but if not, just make little pyramids of the potatoes and put the other vegetables in between them, and the fish. Then put the pan back in the oven and let it stay there just long enough to brown the potatoes a bit Serve the fish and vegetables right from the plank

Iris not alone from legend and old story,
 Iris not alone from canvas dark with time, That holy saints, crowned with celes- tiaI glory, Smile down upon us from their height sublime. Not only from church windows, col ored brightly Do their bIest shadows fall across our way, An, not alone in niches gIeaming whitely, With folded hands do they stand night and day. Who is there in this world who has not hidden
 Deep in his heart. picture. clear or faint. Yelled, sacred. to the outward world forbidden, Der which he bends and murmurs low, My saint? :? A face, perhaps, all written o'er with Whose faded eyes are dim with un- shed tears, And yet they hopefully look toward the morrow, And far beyond it into brighter spheres A face whence all the sunshine of the morning And brightness of the noon have passed away, And yet where clearly, surely, there is dawning
 feet day; That perfect day, when, crowned with Heavens brightness. Without a pain or care of mortal need, With cofqueror's palm. ina robes of snowy whiteness, Our blessed ones shall stand as saints indeed. Yes. God be thanked; though the pure stints of story And holy martyrs that the artist paints, Are yelled in radiance and crowned with glory, There still are ha1os for these un- known saints.

| i not tell
 PIainer what tears are now showing
 to well.
 Had I not loved thee, my sky had been
 Had, I not loved thee, I would not be
 here"
 Heretofore the woman who was plump, fair and 40 still single, began
 to base hope about finding that heart
 mate which Cupid declares he has on
 his books for each one. Such women were wont to whisper to each other
 When men marry nowadays it's little chits of girls in their teens whom they
 are taking to their hearts and homes
 as their brides"
 It should be renem bered that every few years the types and Hkings or
 men seem to undergo a revolution.
 In his fathers counting days it did
 not matter to a man if the sweet l heart was a few years older than
 himself. Love smoothed all difficult ties. They married and lived hap pily ever after. The man of a, decade
 of years ago, even though he had en- tered the bachelor list, considered that he could find happiness in wedz lock only with the girl who was sweet and 20.
 There was an epidemic of such marriages. They lived to be older and wiser men. The middleaged man may marry the girl in her early 20s, but that does not guarantee that hap piness ever after shall follow. As men grow older they contract moods. They forget the gayety and Hveliness which they assumed to catch the pretty love bird. You can't put a young head on old shoulders. Gray hairs and wrinkles come more quickly to a man than to a woman Young eyes are sharp to sees Who can de- termine quicker than the young that they are mismated?
 The glorious morning sunshine is for one. The other stands in the heat of the monday glare, turning his face toward the suns setting. His steps may be buoyant, his heart gay, his tongue ninbIe with witticisns, but, do as you may. the years are there and tell their own tales, with a strong hints as well that it is a mistake for May and December to lead a compat- ible welded life together, save in rare instances.
 The men of today take warning, by the lives of their unfortunate broth l CTS Not alone do they choose a prop l CT time to marry,T but proper mate. For man past his prime there are IcongeniaIity. similarity of tastes. sym pathy and woman's devotion to be considered. The husband of five and
 twenty can rush out of an evening, no matter how hard it storms, at the whim of his young bride. ' The man of five and forty has to be a wee bit careful. He knows the se- cret aches and pains he has which he keeps to himself The rheumatism will catch him if he don't watch out that goblin so dreaded by the middle aged. The woman of 40 understands love better than the girl in her teens. Her appreciation is keener. She knows enough to be thankful for a good heart mate Her every act and kindness which he appreciates as the years roll on show him how wise he was to trust his happiness to the bride who is no longer in the flush of youth.

LITTLE sEMI-PRINCEss BROCK.

The wee girl must have her semi princess frock just like her mother, and this model for tots between the ages of one and eight years is particularly Interesting because of the panel front and belted sides and back. The collar may be of the same material if linen or 8 tub fabric is used;s otherwise an organdy collar is prefera bIe The dress is equally stylish in light weight serge or cloth. and they are aIsol using a great deal of corduroy in fashioning youthful garments this season
 Buttons trim the front and appear again at either side of the belt and on the sleeves. At. the back there is an inverted center pleat. in addition to a square yoke, which may be omitted. In medium size the design requires 2 h yards 36-inch material so that it is easily seen how inexpensively the frocl< may be duplicated Very small tots require only 1 3s yards of goods
 Whether one is experienced or not the cutting guide is of great help in planning this little frock, because it avoids waste of material and 4nstlres one against errors. After the material has been folded in half the front sec- ton is first placed into position. IL is arranged on a lengthwfse9 thread so that the straight edge runs along the Seivage of the goods. while the lower edge of the side rests on the lengthWfse fold. The piecing to complete the full ness at the side is placed to the right of the front. running parellel with the selvage> of the goods. The back is laid on lengthwise fold and next to it is laid the collar, the yoke and the belt Place the belt section crosswise. The sleeve is laid on a lengthwise thread opposite the collar and yoke.
 The panel front, with beIted sizes gives new and graceful line to the front. at the same time preserving the air of simplicity which is essential to oil juvenile fashions this season
