I'm leery Of dramatic moments.

OF a great parsonage who passed
without some hpt quotation from the
classics? Nope. Yet all invalids I've
known have spent their time cussing
the Cruel and the castor oil. and the
greater they were in public the more
peevish they were in private life.
Then there are the proposals. Ac-
cording' to fiction they are invariably
executed as gracefully as gavotte
by Pavlowa. But all proposals in
which I've participated have skidded
clean across the highway and only
started smoothly after you've nearly
stripped the gears and busted the
carburetor: Which may be exciting.
but Is far from. my ideal Of art in love

Then there are those choice bits of
repartee Of which you hear so often.
Did you ever actually catch one OF

bet you never did. Were you ever

one OF the best little reparteers that
ever swung a vicious vocabulary. but
I'm always twelve hours too late.
Long about g. o'clock the next morn
ing. when / can't sleep on account Of
the roast pork, the repartee arrives.
It's always a wonder. and would have
made me famous for life-but what
use is it at 5 in the morning, when
I'm all alone, with cold cream on my
nose:
I expect that is the way with most
dramatic moments. You may plan

peanut or olive oil used will give
flavor.
Pepper Salad.-Green peppers sux-

in salads Their crispness of flavor
and the decorative value give them
high value. They may be used either
in shreds or in rings. and to cut them
to best advantage a vegetable shred

lettuce alone or in combination with
