A thermos bottle is indispensable

A man usually wants meat of

quite as acceptable cold and is more

Meat Loaf
One pound lean beef, Il pound

Put beef and salt pork through

Why write 10 lovers OF divorce ?
Isn't It like writing the last chapter
Of the book before the first?
Not at all; rather il is like turn
ing the destroying sunlight upon the
germ Of a disease. For divorce Is
Americas disease, agree students OF
social conditions.
THE proportion Of divorces TO
marriages is greater in our country
than any country in the world which
calls itself civilized" declares an in
v~estigatOr.
For long It has been the custom
to prescribe cures after the symp-
toms of divorce have developed.
Never has an effective remedy been
suggested. The epidemic of divorce
progresses faster than ever did any
physical plague.
So isn't il about time to deal with
the germ of divorce rather than the
sickness? Time to insist upon pre-
vention rather than cure? Time to
begin with the lovers?
Time. for instance, to give the girl
before she marries some of the
thoughts of the wife after she has
been divorced.
Here is a unique letter telling Of
the regrets which harassed n d.
yorced mother. Surely ii must set
women TO thinking seriously. per-

HOW TO REMOVE
COFFEE STAINS

Few stains are too obstinate to
yield to some medium IL the right
one is arrived at before so many
have been tried that the stain is
hopelessly set.
1t would be well to paste the fol-
lowing cleaning methods in your
kitchen scrap book so that you can
refer to it Immediately and thus
apply the right removing medium
instantly instead OF experimenting
with the stain:
COFFEE-Sprinkle a little borax
on the spot and soak in cold water.
Then apply boiling water from a
height, having laid the material
over a pan. Ii this proves ineffec-
tive and the goods are white and
may be boiled, put a piece of borax
on the spot. Make a knot in the
material and put it in to boil. On
DELEGATE silks daub a little glycer-
in and then rinse with carbon tet-
rachloride.
COLLARS-The yellow stain
which ppears at the edge of a
collar, especially the soft one worn
so much now, is due to albuminous
matter which comes from the skin.
This is boiled and coagulates and is
obstinate. A good eau de Javelle
bleach every few weeks will keep
the collars white.
COCOA-Use cold water with a
little borax. Hot water invariably
sets the stain.
GRASS-If the stains are fresh,
cold water with no soap will be eff
fective. Alcohol and ammonia and
water, equal parts. will remove a
stain which has become slightly set.
If the fabric is white and the stain
obstinate, rub it with a little butter
and then wash out with soap and
water.

NEW YORK-The old Greeks

OF course. Grecian ladies were not
supposed to be too fat or too thin.
Today we see the adaptation of
the Greek robe design in the most
up-to-date and so-called tailored
costumes.
The brought-over draped front
which gives a coat effect is one
adaptation. which is shown here.
The straight-lined gown with the
crossed-over drape %conceals a multi
tude of sins against symmetry.
There is nothing in the outline to
make it unpopular with the perfect
thirty-six, either.
This gown is of navy blue crepe
m~atelasse.
Deep reveres give the gown a
coat-like effect. especially desirable
for street wear. The sleeves are
large and angel-shaped, long and
graceful.
