DIR Ccrtcis briefly as if to answer at
once all of the queries stamped on
the faces about him. "Humor him
and wait"
But cant you give us a hint of
why tho poor boy treats Jane so
strangely? Mothers voice trembled
for the first time.
Certeis shook his head. Then he
glanced from one to the other of us
and changed his mind.
Il have a theory, that is all. You
are women Of sense, so il is quite rea-
sonable for me to explain my theory
to you. / think thai perhaps Bob
was inhibiting the thought OF his
wife. Pardon me, Mrs. Lorimer. but
it is necessary for me to speak plain
ly. Bob vas not permitting himself
to think Of his wife, you understand,
when the great shock came. Perhaps
it had become his habit to put the
picture of his wife out of his mind"
Certeis continued with what ] consid-
cred unnecessary minuteness. "rhen
when the great explosion came, so
close TO him, as he told us at the
table, his whole mental mechanism
was Jared and thrown out of gear.
Let us say, the clutch was thrown OFF
from his affections"
!, at least, understood perfectly,
nevertheless Certeis persisted:
Then Bob's inhibition was made
complete. Now he remembers the
girl, Jane Amcs. whom he has known
for so many ycars-but he no longer
remembers her as his wife,"

Essentials To A Meal

Well cooked food is not the only
essential to IA good meal" The
serving OF what is cooked quickly,
diantily, quietly, easily is an art which
must be mastered by every woman
who values the good temper, good
manners and even the good health
of her family.
Scientific experiments have proved
that the roces of digestion is aided
by the good humor of the person eat
ing; hindered, or even stopped il the
eater is frritated or hurried. A sense
of comfort and pleasure at meal time
is almost as important as food itself.
In most homes meals are served
without the help Of a maid. The table
must be laid with special provision for
several members OF the family to help
in serving. The diagram herewith
shows the proper method.
At each place, the fork or forks
are laid at the left of the plate, tines
up. A dinner fork and salad o are
the usual ones required. They are
laid about an mich apart and an inch
in from the edge OF the table. The
knife is lail at the right of the plate
with the sharp edge inward. Spoons
are put at the right of the knives. IL
a soup or bullion poor is used, il is
laid, bowl up, farthest from the right
of the plate. However, much or lit
tie silver is used, good form demands
that it be arranged in order of use;
those TO be used first put at The out
side, farthest from the plate.
The napkin, folded OF in a ring, is
placed at the left of the forks. The
glass for water, right side up, is put
at the right, just above the top of the
knife. The bread and butter plate.
with butter knife laid across il, is set
a little above and just back of the
forks: The dinner plate may be put
al each place or piled before the per-
son who serves the meat, or main
dish. as desired. .
The table itself should be firm and
large enough to accommodate family
with possibilities OF expansion for
guests. 1t should have an oiled or
polished top, which car be cleaned.
A silence CLOTH" or heavy pad TO
cover the table top. should be provid-
ed to put on the table before the top
cloth is laid. White linen or mercer
lied cloths should IN used, with small
sized napkins 20 match. Large nap
kins should be reserved for formal
occasions. For breakfast, lunch or
any informal meal. no cloth is needed.
but strips OF towelinig. linen or lollles
may be used instead on the bare table.
Dishes should be simple in design
and ornament. 1t is a good plan TO
buy a set from open stock" so that
pieces broken may be duplicated or
replaced at any time. White dishes.
with narrow bands of color or gilt at
the edge are always good. Avo
bright colored, large designs. II is
wise to begin with a few dishes OF
good design and quality n add 10 the
collection gradually. instead of buy
ing a quantity OF cheap dishes, not all
of which are needed.
Simple designs in inexpensive glass
ware is desirable for serving water
fruits and desserts. Silver or plated
ware in plain patterns that match
should be used.
In laying the tablecioth. care should
be taken to adjust il smoothly, with
the center fold exactly in the middle
and the edges hanging evenly on all
sides.
