WOMAN
 IS OUT OF DATE

Among phrases that infuriate, none is perhaps more potent than -'the
 Womanly Woman She went out with mid-Victorianism, together with
 unhygienically long skirts that swept
 the dust, and the tendency to faint
 at opportune moments. To the
 woman of today she is the object of
 impatient scorn-a helpless, selfish,
 useless ornament of an insipid and
 autocratic society. There is nothing
 attractive about her. To the man of
 today, however, she still preserves
 certain charm. He knows that his
 sister is really finer woman than
 the Lady Clares of Tennyson or Thackeray's Amelia; yet the average man would rather like Amelia if he knew her.
 Some men go even farther and frankly admit that for them the womanly woman is still an ideal. And if women of today were not so eaS- erly bent upon fulfilling that destiny of theirs which has been so long | denied them, they might consider less impa tientIy the apparently perverted taste of so many men. It is not all selfishness and a sense of superiority | that makes man som etimeS use the ! old fashioned phrase, nor isl the man 1 himself necessarily old-fashioned; yet l in the hatred of the womanly woman | there is, one is forced to admit, the l lingering result Of many centuries of | the arrogant superiority of one, sex
 and the intellectual irresponsibility of l the other. No wonder the phrase needs defense.
 Today there are, of course, many
 women that are neither fine nor fclever. but, although I see many l women, I see very few of these. They | are not, whatever their, virtues or i their faults, womanly women. Of | those whom I do see, almost all fall i rather nturalIy into two groups, in 1 each of which there is distinct | weakness-the fine women that lack l grace, and the clever women that <; lack restraint If grace is not a | necessity in this serious old world, it ! is, at least, a joy And amongH the i big-hearted, honest, capable, distin- l guished women one knows, how many possess real grace? There is a-Es- serve, a sense of haste before the
 business of life devotion to duty

flour folded in carefully. Bake in
very moderate oven.
Directions Given for
Making Cheaper Cake
For the cheaper sponge cakes,
where baking powder is used, the
eggs may be beaten without separat-
ing. Use an egg beater and beat until
creamy. Add sugar gradually, still
using the egg beater. When light, add
flavoring Uiquid II called for,) then
the flour which has been sifted with
the baking powder. This class of cake
takes q medium oven.
Boiled icing seems to be one Of
the housewives stumbling blocks.
However, II a few simple details are
followed there should be no trouble.
Sugar has a tendency to crystaliss:
II one crystal forms, others follow,
and the frosting will be sugary. To
overcome this tendency, pour hot
water, one-third cup to each cup Of
granulated sugar. in saucepan" then
edd sugar, but do not stir; the sugar
should dissolve at once.
Cover Kept ON Pan Until
Boiling Point is Reached
Cover the saucepan until boiling
point is reached, then remove and
cook until when you drop teaspoon
o. syrup into cup Of cold water the
syrup forms soft ball when rolled
between the fingers. If the syrup has,
G oked too long, add more hot water,
put do not stir, and boil again.
When syrup is cooked, pour slow
ly over the beaten egg whites, allow
ing three-quarters of cup of sugar
t. each egg for soft, creamy filling,
and one cup of sugar to one egg if
firm icing is desired. Use the egg
beater and continue to beat until
fIosting is cool and thick.

Sponge or BUTTERFLIES cakes include
angel and sunshine cake, jelly roll
and the various cheaper sponge
cakes. Sponge cakes depend upon
eggs for their texture. A true sponge
cake is lightened wholly by the air
that is beaten into the eggs. In the
cheaper sponge cakes baking pow
der is used to supplement the smaller
amount Of eggs used. Pans with a
center tube are the most satisfactory
for a true sponge cake. Many of these
pans are provided with support ex-
tending about an inch above the pan.
The cake can be inverted to cool,
then the moist cell walls will not
settle, but will stretch, making the
cake very light and porous. The pan
should never be creased and should
be kept to use for this class Of cake
only.
Mixture Must BE Beaten
Before Flour is Added
TO mix o sponge cake, separate the
yolk from the whites Of the eggs.
Beat yolks until thick and creamy,
add sugar gradually and continue to
beat, add flavoring. Beat the egg
whites until stiff and dry and add to
the egg yolk mixture. Fold in the
sifted flour gradually.
Do not beat the mixture after flour
is added, or most Of the work already
done of inclosing a large amount of
air will be undone by breaking the
air bubbles. These rules apply to
sponge cakes, where baking powder
is not used.
For Angel cake the egg whites
must be beaten until a bowl contain
ing the eggs can be inverted and the
eggs hold their shape. Then the sug-
ar is folded in the egg whites very
gradually, flavoring is added and the
