there had been an accident The
mother Of the prospective groom was
little more composed, while the two
fathers held an excited conference
and the young man who was to become
a husband smoked black cigars and
dug his finger nails into the palm of
his hands.
For half an hour the bridal party
waited, and the assemblage at the
church grew restless, and some of it
left The tension at the hotel ended
when Anne was called to tho phone.
This is Fred" said the voice on
the wire. Say, l forgot all about
your wedding, was so interested in
your friend Hilda. You'll pardon me,
but couldn't help taking her for Il.
ride, and we had nishap. Oh, we
didn't get hurt, but we got pretty
well acquainted. Well be right up to
the hotel. Better get those clothes
ready for Hilda, because shes going -
be your attendant, all right: but what's
more interesting to me--there's going
to be a double wedding"

SISTER MARY'S KITCHEN
(Copyright, 192O, By DC N. y. Al

have friend who has n perfectly
equipped kitchen with one exception.
She has no spatula. And to my way of
working no kitchen is complete and
100 per cent efficient without one of
these simple and inexpensive utensils.
The limberness of the long flat
blade makes it useful in hundred
ways. For removing cakes from pans,
turning pancakes, rolling omelets,
lifting oggs or any tender piece of
meat or fish that must be served
whole, for every meal that l prepare
use this spatula.
And when it comes to getting every
little smidge of cake batter from the
mixing bowl, it simply can't be done
unless one has a spatula.
Menu for Tomorrow
BREAKFAST - Halves OF grape
fruit, buckwheat cakes with sausage,
creamed potatoes, coffee.
LUNCHE0N-Meat and potato pie.
string bean salad, rock cokies, tea.
DINNER-Cream of celery soup,
veal outlets, French fried potatoes,
creamed peas. ounce salad, chocolate
bread pudding, coffee.
My Own Recipes
The old riddle about pancakes max.
ing the butterfly" is both sad and
true. But if, when one serves buck
wheat and sausages, one will make u
thin gravy in the pan the sausage was
cooked in, the butter will not fly quite
SO fast. This sausage juice, as it were.
has a most delicious flavor and should
be brown and rich but thin.

LOUISE.
! One Of the most popular Of feminine
names in our country today is Louise,
which has the somewhat formidable
Significance OF famous holiness -
Originally it is derived from the Latin
word d" laus," meaning praise. After
penetrating several languages and being
subjected to many influences, includ-
ing the Frankish one which changed

alleld from its destiny, it emerged as
Alloys in France
Charles II. took the Provencal name
and changed il 10 Louis. bestowing 10
upon one Of his younger sons, the only
one who lived TO succeed him.
Provence, however. continued to call
the feminine OF the name AlOyse, or
HelOise The correspondence of Hell
Oise and Abelard" was the particular
theme Of sentiment TO appeal TO the
French heart, and the name Of lfalOise
was etrnally established. The wife OF
William Mallct, the hero of Bulwer's
Harold" bore the same name, though
ii was spelled Hesilia or Helewise.
In this manner Louise, or rather her
various forms, was establ lshed in the
literature and language Of France. It's
popularity wancd for a time, but once
more literature brought il into vogue
through Rousseaus romance Of La
NouYelle Heloise." The votaresses Of
ST. Louis adopted his name, forming a
feminine derivative and coming closer
to the present day Louise than any
other influence. Finally, in the fifteenth
century, Louise sprang into being and
won immediate popularity in France.
