QUEEN HELENA OF ITALY.

When Helena, princess of Montene-
gro, became queen Of Italy her first
work of mercy was tending the wound
ed In a serious railroad accident at
Castel Giubileo, near Rome. 1t was
due to the queens efforts that relief
and rescue work were started promptly
after the Messina earthquake and
again during the recent AvezZano
earthquake, when the work was hard
er, as medical supplies, blankets and
provisions had all been sent to the
front for the war then expected at any
moment, and the relief Of the earth
quake survivors was almost hopeless.
The queen is an excellent executive,
far SURPRISING the ladies of her court
In her talent Of organization. During
the present war she has sent carloads
Of shoes and clothing to the children
Of the soldiers at the front. She per-
sonally selects all the materials, and
they are of excellent quality, suited to
the needs Of the occasion.
She Is the queen CT another realm,
too-her own household. There she
shines supreme, for she has person
ally supervised the education Of her
children, all beautiful, every one Of
them. Naturally, the one son has had
her special care and solicitude, for he
one day will be the king Of Italy. In
deed, she has 50 often said that If she
can be as successful In the bringing
up Of the little Umberto as the Queen
Mother Marguerite was in the educa-
ton Of his father it is all the reward
she asks. The queen has four daugh-
tiers.
Queen Helena never forgets how kind
her charming mother-in-law has al
ways been to her. The only regret of
her life was when she was compelled
to take the place Of beautiful Margueri-
ia Of Savoy, who had been the idol Of
the Italian people for a quarter of a
century.
'Still remain queen of Italy," she
pleaded, land let me be known as con-
sort Of the king" But Marguerite
shook her head and, smiling through
her tears, answered:
Dear child, the dreadful fatality
which bereft my husband Of his earth
~ crown compels me also to resign
mine. l am now nothing but a queen
by courtesy, and gladly surrender to
you both the honors and duties of q
station which no longer has any at
fractions for me-" And Helena bowed
to the inevitable with as fine q grace
as any queen in all Europe.

MEALS FOR MEN.
Some Masculine Peculiarities Worth
Needing For the Sake of Harmony.

Some Masculine Pecuiiarities Worth
Needing For the Sake of Harmony.
"Now, that's the kind of dinner I
like" said a big business man after
dining at a friend's-"no frills, no pas
try, and yet the whole dinner fine and
dandy. Why don't more women make
meals like that instead of all those
dinky little dishes"
The conversation following brought
out further points of difference be-
tween men meals and women meals,
the ornate, the complex, the really dis
guised foods which she herself relishes
with delight.
Several men have these peculiarities:
One has for breakfast, morning after
morning, bowl of top milk and white
bread, with eggs in different forms;
another lunches on rice dishes or the
plainest of stews, and all men seem to
like the dinner consisting Of the fol-
lowing: A good strong cup Of bouillon
or plain soup, a steak or chops with
peppers or mushrooms, plain salad
with French dressing and sailed wa
fers and perhaps pie, with a strong
cheese. These are not the plats pre-
ferred by madame. She it is who likes
the nameless dishes Of entrees, the
deviled and pastrified meats or pates.
She it is who likes the elaborate and
creamed vegetable. She it is whose
chief delight is the complex fruit salad
with sweet dressing and the still sweet
er cake and comfit dessert.
Now, this is but plea for women to
understand the tastes Of men and not
cook for them what in reality the wom-
en- like most themselves. We believe
that this century old fiction that man
has a capricious appetite is disproyed
by fact and that most men prefer the
palmer, less elaborate dishes. We be-
neve also that most Of mans superior
strength lies in the secret Of his more
wholesome feeding. We feel like be-
lieving that woman, too, might attain
this superior strength if she also ate
more plainly and spent less time in
making connections. Feed the brute"
yes, but what he really wants, and then
eat 1t ourselves, so we may attain his
superior strength and physique in or
der to be shoulder high with him when
that great wave Of equality comes.

A CHRISTMAS HINT.
Knitted Sweater For Dolly That Small
Girls Can Make.

Knitted Sweater For Dolly That Small
Girls Can Make.
Any little girl over seven years old
may be taught to knit, and the home
ly accomplishment may relieve her
from boredom many time later on in
life. Here is a simple direction for
making a knitted sweater for dolly,
task that will be quite to the fancy
Of the youthful knitter. incidentally
she will learn a lot about knitting.
Use one hank Of Shetland wool in
any pretty color and pair Of knitting
needles about No. size. Cast on twen-
ty stitches for the back Of the sweater
and knit twenty ribs. Then cast on
ten more stitches, knit across and cast
on ten at the opposite side. You have
on the needle now forty stitches, which
gives the width from sleeve edge to
sleeve edge. When you have knit ten
ribs the sleeves will be finished up as
far as the shoulder Hne. About eight
stitches may be bound off for the back
of the neck. Eight stitches from the
forty on the needle leaves thirty-two
stitches. So when you have knit half
Of the thirty-two or sixteen stitches
bind off eight for the neck and con-
tinue to knit across the remaining
sixteen stitches.
You must now abandon work on the
whole sweater and finish each front
separately. To do this slip of the six
teen stitches on the opposite side of
the bound of portion on big safety
pin and fasten securely. Take the
empty needle and commence knitting
where the end of your worsted Is.
Knit as far as the bound of place and
back twice, which will give you two
ribs for the shoulder. Now cast on
six stitches to make the front wide
enough and knit across the twenty-five
stitches for ten rows. This completes
the sleeve. Bind OF under the sleeve
for ten stitches Ghe original number
you cast on for the sleeve and then
knit across and across, straight down
the front until the front Is as long as
the back. Finish the opposite front in
the same way and sew up the under
arm seams with a bit of worsted.
Cuffs may be knitted on the sleeves, II
desired, and even little collar added.

Rice and Creamed Fish.

Cook one cupful Of rice until 1t Is
tender; season it with a little salt and
butter. Do not put any sugar In 1t.
Boil the fish in some water, and when
1t Is nearly done let the water boil
away until the remaining water is very
rich. Remove the fish and from the
water make creamed sauce by adding
little milk, then stirring In enough
flour to make it medium thick. Cut
the fish In small pieces and put 1t In
the bottom Of a baking dish with a
third of the cream sauce over it. Next
put In the rice. seasoning both as much
as you like. Over the rice pour the re-
naming sauce. Put In hot oven and
let bake for twenty minutes and serve

Rebuked by a Donkey,

John and James were tramping
through a dusty lane one day when
they spied little toad in the road.
"Look, looky' exclaimed John. Here
Is a toad. Let's stone him."
"Why?" asked James. "He isn't
hurting you, is he?"
mo; but it would be fun to see him
jump. Come on, see If you can aim
straight"
James felt that it would be wrong to
hurt the innocent thing, but John had
often called him "baby" and coward"
so to avoid a repetition Of these re-
marks he took up stone and was
about to throw it when a donkey cart
came up the lane. The cart was well
laden, and the donkey's burden was
heavy, but the donkey trudged on, his
head down, and thus it happened that
the animal spied the toad almost under
his foot. He stopped short and kept
his foot up until the toad hoped safe
ly out of his way. Then the donkey
moved on with his load.
James dropped the stone without at
tempting to aim.
"Rebuked," he cried, "rebuked by
donkey! 1 say, John, that donkey has
more horse sense than you and L"
"Yes," answered John, blush1ng for
shame, ''that donkey has taught Us
lesson In kindness to dumb creatures"

A Retreat For the Riddles.

Every child needs some corner to call
his own. No matter how young he may
be, no matter how restricted the home
space, he should have some refuge from
adult interference. Few city homes
and apartment houses are built so that
a whole room can be turned over to a
child for his exclusive use.
1t is often possible, however, to give
the child a corner in the living room
or one Of the sleeping rooms in which
to keep his toys and where he may
play undisturbed.
The result Of such a scheme Is that,
instead Of the toys being scattered all
over the house, they are assembled in
one spot, and the mothers work Is less
ened.
Low shelves, arranged like built-in
bookcases, make an excellent storage
place for playthings. 1t is imperative
that the toys be arranged in an orderly
manner, so the child can find a partic-
ular toy he wishes without disturbing
the rest.
By lacking a strip of denim the color
OF the paper along the wall it is posi-
BILE to protect the paper from finger
marks, and at the same time it offers
place for the child to pin his draw
ings or the pictures that appeal to bis
taste.
Children love individual possessions,
and often plant or flower will add
greatly to the appearance of the child's
corner and at the same time will be a
source Of pride.

SURE WRINKLE CURE,
How to Change Your Face From Ug-
Illness to Beauty.

Fo" TO manage your ! ace FROM O9-
Illness to Beauty.
How can one get rid Of disfguring
wrinkles satisfactorily? The remedy
Is so simple that few will believe in
its efficacy, and yet in many instances
It is so difficult to apply that many
women after few trials will give up
In despair. But it is the only real
remedy, and, what Is more, any one
can apply it right in her own home.
The secret is this: Think pleasant
thoughts, drive out of your head all
ideas Of evil, jealousy or rage.
The face reflects every emotion more
faithfully even than a mirror. What
you are, what kind Of thoughts you
entertain can be no secret to the world.
All your ideas, whether for good or
evil, are written upon your face for
all to read who gaze upon you. Don't
deceive yourself by supposing that you
can dissemble, for you can't. As you
think, so is your face nodded.
Have you ever noticed how, even an
ugly face. one that has few redeem
ing features. Is made lovely to look
upon by pleasant expression, by
mouth that tells tale Of kindness,
by eyes that look gladly upon the
world?
II you are afflicted with deep lines
which spread from nose to mouth you
may know they come from discouraged
thoughts, from n tendency to look on
the black side OF life. Pessimism
draws down the corners Of the mouth.
makes the cheek sag dismally and
gives the whole face a disagreeable
expression. Change your viewpoint
and note the difference In your face.
In fact, cultivate optimism for six
months or so. and then you may laugh
at wrinkles, for you VIII find they
have disappeared.

Bread and Milk or Cereal
Baked Apple or Apple Sauce.
After your child is year old you
can continue the usual amount Of milk
you are accustomed giving him, but ii
is no less important that he have a
mixed diet. The breakfast foods, es-
pecially oatmeal, farina and boiled
rice, are extremely important for the
building of the body. Since these foods
are sustaining and rather filling, they
should be given at breakfast and sup
per instead Of at the main meal.
Animal food is also necessary for the
making of blood and muscle, but the
amount of meat should be carefully
considered. Crisp bacon, to alternate
with soft boiled eggs, is nourishing.
If you find that your child is not get
ting all the fat he needs you can put
butter in mashed potatoes, mixing 1t
with vegetables. An added amount of
butter can be put on the chops, the
beef or the minced chicken, which chill
dren should have once a day at least.
When you have no meat at hand you
can make an excellent soup out of
chicken bones favored with vegetables
or bits of beef.
Instead of broth, sugared milk may
be the base of vegetable purees. A
soup of rice boiled in broth or milk is
easily made and is nourishing. The
same may be said of cornmeal broth,
rrovidad n ba eaocopad with y,1opty of
butter. Cornmeal mush Is also to be
highly recommended on account of the
long cooking.
From what has been said about soups
it may be inferred that bread is an ex-
cellent food for your child. 1t contains
many heterogeneous substances and it is
rich in starches, but it is lacking in
fat, which should be supplied by the
using of plenty Of butter. Simple GUS
tards make excellent desserts for the
young child if you can make them
with good milk and fresh eggs; other
wise they had better be left alone
Orange juice and scraped apples are
also excellent food. They aid assimi-
lation and help to purify the blood.
Should you find that your child loves
to eat in a hurry you can teach him
to masticate his food well by giving
dry crusts of bread or hard baked bis
cults. He will be forced to chew this.
One Of the great dangers is monoto-
ny in the menus. A child, no matter
how lusty and strong, can become just
as quickly tired of a continued menu
as its elders.
If you want your child to be strong
nerved and robust do not send him to
bed with a heavy meal lying on his
stomach asking to be digested.

Each player guesses how many beans
the leader holds in his fist. If the
player guesses more than is in the
hand he must give the difference; If
less, the leader must give him the diff
ference. At the end Of fifteen minutes
the game is finished. The beans are
counted, and the player who has the
lesser number Of beans Is the loser and
pays a forfeit to the leader. The per-
son having the most beans Is the leader

Growth
Builders FOR
Children

Most mothers and housekeepers
should give much more time than they
do to the study Of what Is the right
food for their children. 1t is lore
gone conclusion that the young child
needs plenty Of pure, rich milk, but
the time comes when milk should be
supplemented by other food. Many
mothers err in one Of two directions,
either in depriving their children or
simple nourishing food, which Is so nee
essary to the building up Of nerves and
muscle, or in overlooking their young
sters.
When your child reaches the age or
fifteen months it is extremely impor-
tant that he has three good meals
day, with glass Of milk between din
ner and supper and at bedtime.
Breakfast may be served at O'Clock.
1t may include stewed fruit or orange
Juice, cereal, an egg, bread and butter
and milk.
Your child should have his chief
meal between II and 1. This should
include a meat or vegetable soup,
small amount of meat, a'chop or small
piece of rare steak shredded, baked po-
tatoes, two vegetables and a simple
dessert.
