Thought For Today
Making Greens Nutritious

Making Greens Nutritious
Here is a way to add nutri-
ment to green's, and at the same
time to vary the form in which
this important food is served. The
suggestion is made by the United
States Department of Agricul-
ture.
Cheese and Greens Roll
Cook two quarts of spinach,
Swiss chard or other green's.
Drain and dress with one table,
spoonful of butter. Chop and
add one cupful of grated cheese
and bread crumbs enough, TO
make q mixture sufficiently stiff
to form into a roll. Place in OBJ
long pan and cook in moderate
oven for 20 minutes.
When cold the mixture may be
sliced in 1s inch pieces and served
on lettuce leaves with salad dress
ing.
If desired leave the mixture
more moist and bake in casserole
or baking dish and serve hot.

Helen, will you meet me down
town." said Viva's voice, strangely
sweet, over the telephone. II want
to take you up to tea at the studio
of a friend of mine"
Helen had, been waiting for this
invitation ever since Frances had Civ.
e nout the information that Viva was
at last in love and with poor man.
"Of course I can," she returned
enthusiastically. Il think it is a
great compliment that you care
about having me meet him."
"Of course I want you to meet
him. 1 suppose Frances has been
telling you things. She thinks the
world of you and your opinion"
Helen laughed. But that isn't
why you want me to meet him, is
it?" Her tone was wistful. Some
how this strange little girl had won
real place in Helen's heart. She
had become interested in her in the
first place because she was so odd.
Then she had intensely disliked her
because she had thought she was
forward and selfish, almost cruel, for
she had treated Frances abominably
Then her feeling underwent an
other change when she and Frances
made the compact to do something
to help Viva. The child had been
left very much to herself by her
parents, who had thought that allow
ing her to so her own way and pro-
viding her with plenty of money had
been all that was necessary Viva's
knowledge of life, cleaned from her
experience in a fashionable finishing
school, had almost ruined her. but
Frances had insisted that there was
good in her and had also insisted that
Carp keep inviting her to New York.
And certainly good had come out
of it, for il nothing else had been
gained there was no gainsaying the
fact that Viva had capitulated to
Frances. Whether or not she would
accept Helen as friend was another
thing; it was at present sufficient for
Viva that Frances had asked her to
introduce her artist to Helen.
ITO tell you the truth, Viva"
Frances had said bluntly, "I want
Mrs. Curtis to see you have it in you
to care for a real man, after all.
She's as much interested In you as
am"
The Viva of a few months back
would have replied pertly. but the
new Viva. the Viva who knew what
it was to love for love itself laughed,
and laughed with all the ardor of
youth. too, and a wholesome absence
of artificiality.
Viva escorted Helen into a dark
side street and up a few stone steps
into a dark hallway. Helen was
undeniably astonished.
Viva turned to her laughingly as
they began to go upstairs. you
didn't expect to find this, did you?"
Helen flushed.

it possible for him to care in the
same way?
Talk to me, Betty" he said sud-
denly. as though afraid of her silence.
Il haven't anything to say" she
returned icily. She hadn't anything
to say! What a mockery when she
wanted to tell him that she loved
loved him. loved him, and If only he
loved her, enough, nothing else mat
tered. But she was too proud to say
that so instead she kept the icy bar
rier between them.
And so he did not prolong the
argument, when, woman-like, she
longed to say something, and this
fact made her more furious than ever.
Il don't care for anything to eat,"
she said as they got off the car and
walked toward their favorite eating
place.
Not anything?" he asked.
Nothing at all, besides we shall
bite, and I'm too upset" She choked
little.
What is it you want me to say,
Betty?" he asked impulsively. 1--WE
told you how sorry 1 am, and I asked
you to forgive me. Can't you forget
this just once? Come in and have
, dinner. We have plenty of time"
In silence. she followed him into
the restaurant and over to a table.
In silence she drew off her gloves and
observed herself critically in the
glass The boy was also observing
her, and his eyes told her how they
were satisfied with what they OBJ
served. But she avoided his eyes and
looked coolly across him at the next
table where the waiter was just seat
ing another couple. She noted the
girls downcast look. and the hard
set of the mans lips.
"You can do as you like about it,
she heard him say; "it doesn't make
any difference to me whether you like
it or not / don't have to be tied to
your apron strings. you know"
Betty started. Suppose Dick had
treated her that way instead of meet
ing her with abject apologies. Dick,
who never spoke GROSSLY to her, and
was always fair. OF course he was
right and she was wrong. No doubt
it had been impossible for him to
| leave before, and at any rate he had
been genuinely sorry.
Betty" Dick was saying across the
table imploringly. The orchestra was
playing their favorite waltz.
Betty looked up suddenly, her eyes
a little shy and heavy
YES. dear" she whispered ador-
ably.

Il think you are terribly unfair"
he said angrily, his boyish face dis
tcrted with bitterness.
"Of course 1 might have known you
would take that view of it," the girl
retorted.
What other view could I take?
Any unbiased person would say the
same. Just because 1 was half an
hour late getting home"
But you promised this evening to
me-" the girl said wonderingly. 1t
was as IL she could not understand
how 1t could be possible that he could
stay away from her willingly.
II know l did, and we have the
whole evening, haven't we?"
The girl shook her head. You don't
understand, Dick" she said, trying
to speak evenly, although her voice
trembled little. If you had been
detained at the office or If you had
an excuse of any kind, of course it
would have been all right. But you
haven't an excuse. You said you
would take me out to dinner and the
theater, and then you stay playing
billiards until nearly o'clock"
IF had had an idea that it would
hurt you." the boy protested. but
was playing with a stranger and 1
hated to stop in the middle of the
game"
The girl was fair enough to under
stand this, but 1t hurt, grievously
hurt. Hadn't she worked all after
noon in order to finish the dress she
wore. 1t was going to be a gala
night. festive occasion, and now it
was nearly half past seven; they
wouldn't have any time to eat dinner
leisurely. Everything would have to
be hurried. If she had not been too
proud, tears of disappointment would
have coursed down her cheeks.
There was silence as they rode side
by side on an open trolley car. The
soft evening breeze stole across the
girls face catching at a wavy tendril
of hair, and blowing the soft fragrant
youth of her across to the boy. They
hadn't been married very long, and
the faint fragrance caught at his
senses and made him bitterly ashamed
of the fact that he had neglected her
even in what he considered so small
a matter.
She was thinking of their honey
moon time, and the fact that he could
hardly bear to be away from her at
all. Why. she reasoned bitterly,
couldn't things be like that always?
They were with her. why then WASN'T

Fashions of To-Day By May Manton

There is no more fashionable
blouse than this one with the
narrow vestee and there is none
that is susceptible of more varied
treatments. Here, the material
is a fine handkerchief lawn with
hemstitching as finish, but if
you want a more dressy blouse,
you could use lace for the vestee
and lace to edge the collar and
the turned-over portions of the
cuffs. You could make the
waist of silk and use Georgette
for the vestee, collar and cuffs
or you can use crepe for the
main portion and silk for the
trimming.
For the medium size will be
needed, 25s yards of material
SO inches wide, 2 yards "a.
The pattern No. o5II is cut
in sizes from "a to Al inches

and laid it upon a chair above the
soiled riding breeches of corduroy
had so lately discarded. L opened the
carved wooden box on the table un-
derneath and took from 1t the silver
slippers and the stockings of silk,
also the lace fan and the band for
the hair. Thereupon / walked to my
mirror and commenced to make a
toilet of great care, but of a great
rapidity.
My first action was to take down
| that lovelock and with the oil of
roses to lay it in it's accustomed
place upon my cheek, which burned
with a beautiful rose of shame and
at the same moment with some other
emotion that l did not understand,
which emotion also made my eyes
as bright as the night stars out in
that Camp Heaven. The silver band
held closely the rest of my mop and
gave it the appearance of the very
close coiffure which is the fashion
of this day, and one very sweet
young rose l put into 1t just above
the curl with an effect of great and
wicked beauty.
The coiffure having been accomp-
lished, the rest of the toilet, from the
slippers of the cloth of silver to the
edge of fine old lace, now the color
of rich cream, that rested upon my
white arms and shoulders, was only
a matter of few moments and then
stood away from my mirror and
beheld myself therein.
You are as beautiful as you are
wicked, Roberta, marquise of Gree
and Bye, but you go to your death
in a manner befitting a grande dame
of your ancient house of France,
whose daughters once showed the
rabble how to approach guillotine
costumed in magnificence. Descend
for that cold knife to your heart!'
And, so speaking, l picked up my
fan and made my way through the
hall to the halfway of the wide
steps. At that point a commotion oc-
Cured.
"Lordee! It's the old lady come

bon, and with groan he fled into
the darkness in the back regions of
the house.
And it happened that his loud cry
brought response which came to
me before l was quite in readiness
for it. AS I reached the last step of
the wide staircase under the bright
light 1 raised my eyes and, behold,
the Gouverneur Faulkner to whom l
had descended for the purpose of
mortal combat stood before me!

any very loving father or mother
feels an almost desperate need of
protecting a child as young as you.
Ask your father to let you read
your own letters first so that you
may have the fun of opening them
and feeling a sense of possession in
them. Then promise him that, for
his peace of mind, you will always
hand them right over to him as
soon as you have read them. Your
very intensity of feeling probably
frightens your father. He wants to
protect you. He is wiser than you.
Trust a little more to his loving
friendship and good judgment.
