If men don't like the dolls. why do SO
many men leave their nice little unat-

Answers Jack B.

You are thinking too much about it
all, my friend Has the young girl
accepted you? If she has, you are en-
gagged already and it would be best to
get her ring the size you think will
fit and let her have it fitted later if it is
her that you love her and she says she
loves you and will marry you, you
need not ask her about that kiss; just
take it. The sooner you take it the
better. Don't let yourself get self
conscious about such matters. It's
natural for man to want to kiss the
woman who has promised to marry
him, and it's just as natural for her
to want him to kiss her. so go to it,
my friend.

for several hours and the various

Would you consider this practi-
cal for such as roast beef or other
foods that are in need of basting,
as the oven cannot be opened while
the cooking is in progress, or
would you advise the regular cleo

The electric range, with the auto

Canadian Style OF Hot Milk
Is Unusual and Tasty as
Well as Nutritious

CHILLY November days give one
~ the desire to drink something
warm with the noon luncheon. Now,
milk, cream, soup, chocolate and
cocoa all furnish the required addi
tional food units necessary for the
bodily comfort during the fall and
winter months.
Many inquiries come on how to
prevent the milk from scorching
while it is being heated. This brings
to my mind an old southern
inammys instructions regarding
this delicious product: "Do you-all
know dat iffen you jest rubS the bot
tom of yo' saucepan ve'y lightly wit
salad oil ole massa milk jest CANT
act up a-tall ?"
SO take this smart trick right into
your kitchen and keep in mind that
a light coating of salad oil in the
bottom of the saucepan will prevent
the milk from scorching. This is
particularly true if the saucepan has
held food that has been scorched in
it while cooking
Hot Milk, Canadian Style
Place two cups Of milk in pre-
pared saucepan and heat slowly to
the boiling point. Now, while the
milk is heating, place in bowl
One egg,
One-hdlf cup Of Uater,
Tpo tablespoons of sugar,
One-quarter teaspoon Of nutmeg.
Beat to mix thoroughly and then
stir into the .scalding milk. Beat
hard with an egg beater and remove
from the stove at once. Serve. This
amount will serve five persons.
Creamed Soups
Leftover vegetables, well-cleansed
green tops of celery, peas, beans and
lentils may be used to provide va
riety. The liquid drained from
canned vegetables may also be used.
Oysters, fish and small pieces of left
over meat or chicken when combined
with milk make palatable, attractive
and nourisking soups.

yellow. pale green and pale vic let. The
maid of honor might wear pale shade
of orchid. with a girdlc of tulle in the
rainbow shades.
There is no prescribed time for q
church wedding or for the bridegroom
and bride to leave on their honeymoon
1t depends on the train they have to
take away or the time of day that they
like best. No one outside could really
advise you about that.
The flower girl should wear a white
dress and hat with sash of a light color.
She simply carries a basket of flowers
and walks at the head of the brida
party going up the aisle. Two flower
girls would not be better, but you could
have them if you like. They should
both wear white. They should be under

Various Wdys Of Preparing
Chocolate and Cocoa to
Suit Al Kinds Of Tastes

nervous folk will find satisfying and
palatable. Chocolate must be scraped
very fine; to make four cups of choc-
olate scrape sufficient unsweetened
chocolate to measure four table
spoons. Place in a saucepan and add
one and one-half cups of cold water
and two and quarter cups of
milk. Heat slowly to the boiling
point and cook for two minutes. Re
move from the fire and add a pinch
of cinnamon and one-half teaspoon of
vanilla.
Beat hard. Now place marsh
mallow in each cup and fill with the
chocolate.
To use the instantaneous cocoa:
Place two level teaspoons of cocoa in
cup and fill with hot milk. Stir for
few seconds and serve at once.
To use the old-fashioned cocoa:
Place one cup of water in a sauce
pan and add
Tlco cups Of milk.
Sic ierel tablespoons of cocoa.
Place on the stove and stir until
the boiling point is reached. Turn
down the flame and cook for two
minutes and then serve.
The Spanish and Mexican house
wives use a wooden beater that has
many little wooden rings attached to
beat the chocolate and cocoa while
it is cooking. This not only blends
/ the chocolate and cocoa thoroughly.
but prevents it from settling to the
bottom of the pan and thus scorch-
/ ing.
Cocoa made from the old-fashioned
nibs; in many stores it is possible
to purchase the ld-fashioned nibs;
to make the cocoa, using these nibs.

Bring to boil and cook slowly for
fifteen minutes. Drain and to this
liquid add:
One cup of erdporated milk,
