Potato Prices In Restaurants

To the Editor Of THE TINES:
You rightly urge citizens to eat
more potatoes and less bread, because
the tuber is cheaper and just as
nourishing. But the economy argu-
ment does not apply in the average
restaurant The truth Is, in public
eating places the charge for potatoes
is greater than for bread This Is
especially so in the so-called hrst
class dining rooms.
A glance at the bill Of fare will
show that you will get baked po-
patoes for % cents, boiled for 20
cents, and hash brown for something
like 80 cents. The portions in all
cases are Insignificant A hard-work-
ing man could swallow the whole at

fewer "downcast eyes," but there
are also a corresponding number
Of frank, truthful ones.
am sufficiently old-fashioned
to object to a woman taking such
matters into her hands with q
challenge "watch-me" attitude.
Nothing could be more offensive
or in worse taste, but there are
ways and means like Priscilla's:
why don't you speak for your
self, John?" that are nothing
more than innocent coouetry.
Is he Too Young.
In regard to our second eonsid-
Grafton, is a woman justified in
choosing a man so much younger
than herself? One can only con-
slider the question from o5serva-
tion-and past history.
That marriages of this type are
generally happy we've only to
look about US to see. While, of
course, there are the well-known
cases of Disraeli and his wife,
George Eliot and Cross, and the
case Of the late Bishop Pinkney,
of Maryland, whose wife is said
to have embroidered his christen-
ing robe.
The reason for the success Of
such marriages seems to be that
they blend companionship on
equal terms with the protective
quality of the maternal instinct
In the present case my corre-
spondent would not be taking the
fortunate young man away from
some one else nor marrying him
for his money, since they are both
bread-winners working shoulder
to shoulder.
! think if she decides to "over-
come her old-fashioned preju-
dices" there is every chance Of
their being happy. A woman so
honest and intelligent could not
fail to make a good wife.

MI ten me an interesting
AIA letter, dealing with an
entirely modern situation
The remarkable feature OF ner

honestly and squarely. That sne
does not complicate the facts with
emotion or self-deception-
And though the situation Is
tvpicaI of the modern business

thinking she has brought to bear
on her case is unusual
A great many women would

Unusual Honesty.
Such honesty is certainly de-
serving Of happiness. 1t is a good
keystone upon which to build the
foundations of a home.
There would appear to be two
questions TO this case. Is a wo-
man free to choose the man she
wants for her husband? And
granting that she has this right,
is it fair for her to influence
man so much younger than her
self?
TraditionallY, the man has al
ways had the privilege of selection.
But has he, really? According to
