MO CARELESS hand can dish per-

who, by long experience, has gained
her knowledge by experiments can send
combinations to the table that are the
envy Of the amateur cook. Occasionally
a housewife may hit happy combina-

No other dish served upon our table
allows so wide range Of possibility for
individuality as the salad. Summer
time is the heyday of the salad season.
Use only the incest and crispest let

lettuce early in the day in plenty Of
water and then wrapping in towel and
placing It on the ice to crisp is one
Of the real secrets Of success. Many
combinations Of cooked vegetables com

green peppers afford variety. Another
secret of the salad success Is the dress

ION has changed since then. Cynthia. I

any liberties with her, but she had a

fellow interested and compels him to

Dear Cynthia--In your yesterdays
column there was a little heartfelt ar
tlcle signed by "A Good Girl But Dis.

| am Of the opinion there are too many
fellows nowadays who expect a lot for
nothing or vice versa, when they first
meet girl. and that is the type I judge
she Is condemning.
1t may seem odd for young fellow
who mas never been held down and al.
ways allowed TO do as he pleased. but
I'll be frank-I have never cared for the
type of girl "Disgusted" tells us Of
! hope this will try to prove to her
that she will no doubt meet her ideal If
she looks hard enough. for there are
more fellows Of my kind than there are
girls of hers.
Hope this is worthy of print In your
column and that "Disgusted" finds the
correct party in the near future.
