by Food Administration.
Because the Sinclair Tea and Coffee
Company, Of this city, failed to apply
for a food administration license for
the sale of coffee by Feb. 4. the COM
pany today was penalized by the ma
,tional food administration, according to
a telegram to the Times Republican

vides that its license shall not issue

pany from selling coffee until that date.
Two hundred companies in the country
are affected similarly.

company, said today that he had not
been advised Of the penalty, and that
the word to the newspaper was the first
intimation he had had of the action.
He applied for license on March 2.
or as soon as he was informed by a
trade paper that he must do so.

Like Pressure on q Bruise.
The miracle seldom follows, and
the differences that before mar
riage were a source of irritation
afterward become like pressure on
a bruise. The first essential of a
successful marriage, it would
seem, should be complete absence
of temperamental antagonism.
And having once admitted this,
we may consider lesser issues. A
woman of my acquaintance, deeply
interested in welfare work, made
rather an exhaustive study of the
unhappy married couples seeking
redress in a domestic relations
court. She became convinced that
a difference of tastes regarding

the domestic ideal, was the most

for wild, prowling symptoms be-
fore marriage, just as the prowl-
ers should be equally warv of the
basking, hearth-rug species. The
wild and the tame make poor yoke
mates.
Granting that people have do
nestle tastes not utterly opposed,
there is now the colossal question
Of food to be considered. Food
has oiled the rebellious domestic
machinery more often than any
other element.
But, alas, how few girls really
know anything about practical
housekeeping. The domestic
science classes in our schools, are
inadequate to teach practical fam
lily catering.
Susie is taught how to make
mayonaise gingerbread, and she
looks on while meat is roasted, but
is she taught how to get highly ap-
petizing and economical dishes out

Does she know how to market and

Newspaper readers of several
years ago doubtless recall the
handome prize offered by a GER

recipe for keeping a husbands
affection. Tons of letters were
received, some of them consumed
quires Of paper in their answer,
but the woman who got the prize
merely wrote on a post card:

Another woman who has success
fully kept her husbands affection
for over twenty years, assures me:
She keeps him guessing" By this

sible rivals over his head, but
while being a most devoted wife
and mother, she lets the family

So it would seem there is no
cut and dried rule for keeping the
male bird contented in his cage;
the plan that works with one fails
with another. The best one can
advise is to select a partner that
is not temperamentally antagoniS-
tic, keep the house in order, and
