JUNE BRIDES LEARN TO COOK
STRAIGHT TIPS ON VEGETABLES"

written Especially by Oscar. OF the
waldorf.l
The first thing the June bride
should learn about vegetables Is al
ways to use FRESH ones. The vege-
tables In season are the cheapest as
well as the best. Very few vegetables
can be grown out of season and not
lose some OF their flavor.
The young housewife cannot go
wrong II she makes 1t rule to serve
with meat always one new green
vegetable. such as peas. string beans,
or any seasonable green.
Whenever the vegetables are dis
tinguished for their excellence the
dinner is always particularly en-
joyed. AS to variety Of vegetables
the average meal requires not more
than two, IL there Ia to be a salad in
addition. But the average American
housewife confines herself to pota-
toes and a very few other vegetables
Here is an attractive vegetable dish
that is different" Asparagus tops
with cream: Cut off the points or
heads of the desired quantity Of as
paragus. wash and drain them and
place in a saucepan with a little
warmed butter. Set the pan on the
fire, stir in a little bechamel sauce
(Which I have told how to make in
a previous article). and when done
remove, place on dish, pour over
the sauce and serve.
There are ways of serving common
vegetables that will make them much
more attractive. For instance. string
beans, Bretonne: Cut some onions
into dice shaped pieces, placing them
in a saucepan together with little
butter. let cook to a golden color on
the stove, say for five minutes. and
add very little flour. Stir we'll and
moisten with some white broth con-
tinuing the stirring until 1t comes to
a boil. season with salt and pepper.
Then add the cooked beans with a

cause of female ailments, which had

Arresting Girls in Masquerade
By EARL WIN.
Something That Made Everybody Mad.


The big bulge in the editors mail this last two dsvu

The only bright spot the entire story shows lie that
Ralph Given the assistant United States attorney threw

shame-I hope.
Every od-time policeman, every police official must
blush with chagrn when he contemplates exactly what
happened. The city crowded with people having inno
cent fun Heaven only knows that JOY people can
get out of life at this stage in the worlds history ought to
be encouraged and NOT penazed Maskers were dancing
In thousands of homes and the streets of Washington
which in past have been deader than nails after
dark there every joyful sign of life imaginable
Three young women, NOT criminals, not suspicious
characters, but just ordinary everyday girls were seen
wearing soldier clothes-and arrested.

KIND of organization there for the special handling OF
such cases. to arrest is fraught with danger In
this particular there doesn't to have been any
reason for the arrest except that policeman was
ON the Job and had to arrest The charge against
the girls that they in the uniform of the United
States and for that crazy and entirely unnecessary charge
they would have been kept in the House of Detention all
night had not John Laskey interviewed making il possible
for these young women to 60 free $50 ''bail."
The arrest of these three girls disgrace the Police
Departmentand have not the slightest doubt that the
officials have taken steps to that such silly piece of
business is repeated.

And the wife who is a good

ought to be cooking dinner, and
spends altogether too much money

other gay, irresponsible lures to

Of course he APPRECIATES

He'd undoubtedly tell you he

Beatrice Fairfax Writes of the Problems and Pitfalls the Workers
Especially For Washington Women

Do you do your hair up on curl

Whenever a woman tells me
that her husband no longer loves
her and is, possibly, paying atten-
ton to some other woman. | al
way ask that one question before
| decide whether her trouble is
just bad luck or something of her
own making.
If she says she does-has done
so practically all her married life,
in fact, then Pm afraid l tell
her she deserves all that's hap
pening to her.
Seems cruel, does it?
Not at all-because she has vio-
latd the fundamental principle of

marriage is based on love) by rob
bing her husband of his right to
romance.
If you contracted to have your
fur coat fixed up and when it came
back the lining was cheap cot

merry silk you had expected, you'd
feel you'd been cheated and your
Indignation would rise. we'll,
how about the husband who mar
ried a girl he thought was all
pretty and attractive only to find
that she has her moments of look
ing like very fine scare-crow!
There isn't man in the world,
no matter how plain or ordinary
or hum-drum or how old, who
hasn't the urge for romance in
his soul. It's that quality in one
man that becomes a painting that
delights your eyes; in another a
melody that thrills your soul; in
another a book which for sheer
beauty of language and imagery
lifts you out of your own work-a-
day world and transports you to
land of golden fancy. It's the
quality that makes an apparently
everyday man marry some beauti-
full luxurious creature he cannot at
all afford and for whom he must
keep his nose TO the grindstone
forever and q day.
Women are much more prac-
teal. They marry the homliest
old ogre IN town because he has
a pretentious bank roll and be-
cause it's the common sensible
thing to do.
And when a woman tells me
she's been q good housekeeper
and kept her husband out of debt,
and his socks mended, and always
had the meals ready on time and
she can't understand why he
doesn't appreciate her, / feel like
shaking her and asking her what's

Barrie's one-act play, "The Old
Lady Shows Her Medals" asks
the old woman what she thought
a soldier longed for when he was
knee-deep in mud in rat-infested
trenches, she smiles and answers:
"A hot bath and bed with real
sheets"-but the Scotchman shakes
his head and shuts his eyes and
says: "No, not a hot bath-nor
a bed with real sheets on-it's
chiffonw
With a single word Barrie ex-
presses the longing every man has
for the pink" things of life
sottness, mystery and surprise.
20 into crowded street car
land of course that means any
street car in Washington. Who
gets the seat? Is it the woman
with the determined visage who
looks as though her front steps
were secured regular every morn
ing. Oh, no, Rollo-it's the lady
with the dreamy eyes, who looks
as though her thoughts were some
where up on Mount Olympus, the
lady with pink rose nodding on
the fur of her coat and just a
far-away hint of perfume in the
atmosphere about her. One seat?
Why every man on the car, not
excluding the gentleman with the
ounon, is on his feet in an in
slant. They've forgotten they
were tired or wanted to read their
newspaper. Here is the actual
embodiment of a thousand dreams
come true.
Life's a practical business?
You're right! But there's always
time to play and dream dreams
or there ought to be-and if your
husband can't get the lift TO ro-
nance and the unexpected with
you-well-MrS. Lady he'll PROB
ably get it with some one else.
There's one occasion where /
advocate flirting. 1t is among
married people with themselvs. Go
ahead, Mrs. Lady, flirt with
Friend Husband-kiss him on the
ear when he's least expecting it.
He'll give you a bewildered look
Of surprise; it's so long since
there was any playfulness in the
: drab business Of living. But he'll
think about it all day and that
night or the next he'll sheepishly
bring you the first box of candy
in months and wonder if YOU
wouldn't like to go to the movies
and whether your head aches or
not and wouldn't you like to have
him get you a drink of water"
Oh yes, the worldly old mother
was right when she said to her
daughter:
"Take care Of your complexion,
my dear, and your ills will take
care OF themselves"
Because after all, our chief con-
cern in life is not with things
as they ought to be but simply
with things as they are!

HEARD AND SEEN

We hereby register respectful, but
emphatic, protest against the en-
forcement of any police regulation
/ that would drive from the streets
the firms who now compete with
lunch rooms by the sale of so-called
box lunches.
In the fight on the H. c. L. these
lunches are potent factor, and to
deprive the people of Washington of
the chance of saving so per cent of
their luncheon bills will certainly
cause discomfort.
We are facing the increased cost
of street railway transportation
with anything but gracious thoughts,
and we do not think that we should
be further imposed upon by the plac-
ing of the interests of a bunch Of
profteering lunch room keepers
above our own.
II the regulation in question can
not be stretched, it can be abrogated.
