"Babbsie. Darlington precious

Don't stop to telephone Phoebe
about our little gift. I'm going

I turned from the telephone con-

was all devotion, but I conquered
my inclination 10 condemn him for

attention to my beloved host and

Just as we were finishing the
iced melon with which we began
the extravagant repast Neal insist

But Neal arose and. seizing me
masterfully by the elbow, fairly
pulled me from my chair.
"Oh. how / love to have the dear
girls fighting over the honor OF my
hand in a waltz" he laughed; but
come along, Birthday Girl-there's
no escaping"
"You sweet. generous darling"
I flung at Phoebe as we departed.
Joyously Neal and I swung out to
the soft strain of the popular
Hawaiian waltz. For several mo-

but the rhythm OF the sobbing yet
laughing music and of our gliding
along as part of II. Then n face
startled and uneasy-stood out

one can justly expect in that rela-
tionship will be governed wholly by
the worthiness of the controlling
motive. No one can rightly expect
to prostitute holy, things to unholy
purposes and succeed. 1t does not
follow that one must be a member
of an accepted church in order to
succeed in matrimony but 1t is alb
solutely necessary that both parties
to that holy relationship be subject
to and controlled by the Spirit OF
Christ And when this is so,
whether in ignorance Of the identity
of the controlling spirit. or intelli-
gently following His advice and
counsel as recorded in the pages of
the Holy Scriptures, they are as
sured of, and may rightly expect all
that spells success. In this land OF
an open Bible, go to the word of God
carefully scan it's pages, prayer
fully follow it's counsels, and you
can depend upon II that all the

When You Go
to Market
BY Loretto G. Lynch.
An Authority on All Matters Per-
taining to Household Man
agement.

NJ = ss! :: ::,s%s: mo: ::'y =: well! II
And too few women are
good marketers. The trouble comes
in that they do not know how to
substitute if they find that one
thing they planned on buying is
scarce or high priced or not to be
had at all. Sometimes they become
panicky or indignant If they can
not get what they planned to get
and buy something containing
nothing like the food value essen
tial to the balanced meal.
Haven't you often gone to mar
ket intending to get fresh or
canned peas to serve with those
salmon croquettes and not finding
the peas to your liking. come home
with tomatoes. Dietetically, to-
matoes cannot be substituted for
peas. The food value of peas Is
that of a body builder. while to-
matoes have practically no food
value, but are eaten for their flavor
and for the mineral-salt they con-
tain. Might better the housewife
have purchased beans or lentils.
Baked beans or creamed limas,
lentils creamed with. perhaps,
little stewed celery and a speck of
curry in place of the peas. For
these have a food value similar to
that of peas.
In any event, it is always better
to make out a little market list
before setting out. 1t is. also well
to jot down some substitutes that
will keep the balance unchanged.
Suppose you find, as one often does
in the small town market, that the
butcher has no meat. He may tell
you about how much he will have
for tomorrow-but today-ah! that
is a different story
What do you buy then? Potatoes?
But you shouldn't. Potatoes are
not substitute for meat. They are
frequently an accompaniment OF
meat, but not exactly substitute,
although the Germans claim to have
found some bodybuilding proper
ties in them during the shortage of
food In war times.
But what could the clever mark
eter substitute for meat? Cheese
is an excellent substitute for meat.
If there are children in the fam
lily choose cottage cheese---some-
times called pot cheese. Press 1t
INTO IOTfn OF shape IL INTO cones ana
dust each with finely chopped wal
nuts. Serve on leaves OF lettuce
with nice bread and butter and pos
sibly pudding of custard and rice.
But If there are all adults in the
family, treat them to n welsh-rare-
bit. 1t is mighty nice IL It is prop
erly made. To serve six. buy about
thrce-fourths of a pound of hard
old cheese. Cut IL into bits and
put these into double boiler.
Add one teaspoon of Worcestershire
sauce, one-fourth teaspoon OF dry
ground mustard and one-half tea
spoon of salt. All measurements
must be taken level. Put in also
two level tablespoons of butter and
n few grains of cayenne. AS the
cheese begins to melt add one-half
pint OF rich milk. into which two
eggs have been beaten. stir the
mixture constantly until II thickens
and serve on pieces OF lightly
Drowned toast bread.
Boiled mscaroni combined with
cheese and a rich white sauce Is
a substitute for meat. This may be
baked en- casserole. For variety
use macaroni of various shapes and
sizes
