Kitchen Hints
Tempting Menus

In place Of meat on q hot summer
night try jellied eggs. There is a lot
Of nourishment in the dish and it
must be prepared in the morning.
BY preparing the dish in the morn
ing the cook finds it possible to
spend the long afternoon on the
porch and finally get dinner In a
fairly comfortable kitchen.
JeIlied Eggs.
Four pound knuckle of veal, "
pound lean beef, 2 quarts cold wa
ter, 2 teaspoons salt Il onion, 3
sprigs parsley, Y teaspoon pepper,
1 tablespoon g~ranulated gelatine, 6
hard boiled eggs.
Cut any meat from the veal bone.
Cut beef in small pieces. The beef
should be a cheap cut from the
neck. Put meat. bone, water, salt,
pepper, onion and parsley in soup
kettle and bring very slowly to the
as it rises. Simmer four or five
hours Strain through double
thickness of cheese cloth. This
makes a white stock that may be
kept on hand. Let the stock cool
and skim off any fat. Reheat to
boiling point and add gelatine which
has been softened in " cup cold
water. Put the mold in a pan of
cold water and cover the bottom
with the jelly. When beginning to
set add a layer of eggs cut in slices.
Add another layer jelly and con-
tinue until all is used. Let each
layer of jelly set partially before
adding another layer Of eggs. Let
stand in the refrigerator for sew
eral hours before serving. Indi-
vidual molds may be made instead
of one large mold. This perhaps
sounds like a long drawn out proce-
dure but it is not and with eggs
cheaper there is not a more eco
nomical or attractive dish to serve
ones family.

"Chris Crows Dinner"

While Sprinkle Blow and the
Twins were talking to Biddy Ban
tam about her nest in the hay stack,
somebody else was planning for the
night. That was Chris Grow.
Chris was mighty hungry and all
the green things growing around
everywhere didn't interest him al
all. He was watching for Munchie
| Mouse or Tillie Toad. or Lazy Liz
ard or somebody that would make
a meal worth while. He had to keep
alive some way until corn planting
time, and the pats Farmer Smith
had just put in didn't appeal to him
a scrap. Oats, Chris never ate. al
though oa%t-sprouts and wheat
sprouts he might sample If he found
them without too much trouble.
Suddenly something scurried along
right under his nose, something very
little and brown and soft. with two
long ears and the weentiest nothing
of a tail.
"Um-m-m!" shifted Chris. "That
was little Cutie Cottontail! Where
did he go?" Chris looked up just
in time to see Cutie's little nubbin
of q tail disappear under the root of
an old, old oak tree. and he nodded
knowingly. "Ill wait until he comes
out" said he. "Ill stand here and
not move and catch him unawares.

OMAN INTERESTS AND SUGGESTIONS FOR HOMEMADE

The Mans Side of Married Life

"Soiitairc, Knitting or D~arning?"
l had no intention of permitting
myself to be cooped up with Edith
while George took my wife to a vio-
lin recital. 1t seemed a thorough
ly stupid arrangement with abso-
lutely nothing to commend it except
that it was very ''modern'-which
was no attraction in my eyes.
Vainly / had attempted to per-
suade Dot of this, without going too
much into the details of my objec-
ton. So l made up my mind when
/ found it impossible to dissuade her
to resort to deception.
Sid promised to call me up that
evening and, pretending to be Mr..
Danielson, the firms lawyer, insist
on seeing me upon a matter of bust
ness.
This would give me the excuse 1
needed to get away. George could
take Dot to the concert as they had
planned and Edith could wait at u
house until they returned.
OF course, / did not tell Sid why 1
wanted to get away that night; he
had the idea / wanted to see a prize
fight.
With my plans already made I
awaited the evening without the
least bit Of worry for 1 had provided
a certain ear of escape.
So when l met Edith hat after
noon l joked with her about the
affair as though 1 really intended
for it to go through according to
the schedule that she and my wife
had worked out.

have my company this evening"" she

"Oh, l dropped in to see George

fair to him. despite the fact that he
is going to desert me this evening.
It's all very twentieth century, isn't
it?"
"Twenty-first century," I cor

of the arrangement"
do you know, / find it absolutely
impossible to shock him n more.
But Dot tells me you made a little
fuss when she informed you of our
plans for the evening. 1 don't think
that was very fiattering."
Il would rather do anything than
sit through an evening of music
even be with you"
THANK you. Dot and George will
come back in time to rescue you
from utter boredom"

bring some knitting with me?"

Editorials For
Women Folks

She was a timid looking little per-
! son. a bit uncertain about every
| thing. 1t was her first long trip by
boat, and then there was to be such
| a thrilling end, she couldn't help be-
ing
! But she smiled, a quavery thin
I Tipped little smile which would al
most have made n sorry for her.
IL she hadn't been so glad herself.
Her skirt was full-too full. Prob
ably she had been saving the suit as
best for years. The jacket was
too tight and the sleeves were a trlf1e
queer. 1t wasn't a 1921 version, nor
was it even a 1920. But it was
brushed-brushed so well and put
on with such care and precision.
The little hand bag she carried
for the past twenty-five years 1t
must have been the companion of
her %infrequent trips. 1t swung from
a brass-ringed handle and it's shiny
sides rounded u unscratched.
She smiled confidingly at every
one and finally when the tall young
sat down beside her she told
her about her trip. She was going
to see her daughter; such a bright,
lovely daughter, h told of. The
little woman was so proud OF her.
OF course the daughter was to be
there to meet her; she hadn't seen
her for two years because the
daughter had been too busy to go
home.
Finally the boat locked.
The quavering smile broadened,
the happy light in her eyes intensi-
fed and as she walked down the
plank her eyes searched the crowd
which waited.
At the foot of the plank h stood
for a minute looking around.
There was ne n there to meet
her, no strong young hand to take
the shiny little bag, no gay young
person to push through the crowds
ahead of her. So the little woman
sought the corner of a bench and sat
down. A look, half-disappointment,
half-anxiety took the place of the
smile while she watched for the face
she knew among the many passing
by.
Finally a young woman detached
herself from the crowd. The little
old pima started up TREMENDOUSLY.
There was a preoccupied greeting
and a hasty excuse for being late.
And that was all-so far as the
thoughtless daughter was concerned.

GOING MY WAY

NV aunt. after all, I've decided on
this thing and I'll see it through. L
hate the idea of talk, but it can't be
helped"
I'm that you show more ems than
1 expected" my aunt surprised me
by saying. However, as l said,
wen manage to send Winthrop back
to Wellsville where he came from
and where he belongs, and that Will
save you the embarrassment of UNI
mig into him. It's a large city, but
one is always stumbling over unde-
sirable characters"
In spite of my sense of detection,
/ laughed a little at the casual way
in which she disposed of poor Win.
Lets see," she went on. narrow
ing her eyes a trihe as she always
did when she was thinking hard.
"Gwen will try to keep him here.
She has a great deal of influence
with Waterman. But then 1 can
bring influence on Waterman
through the George Smiths, who
financed him when he started bust
ness. Yes, that will do. They'll buy
out Win and we'll send him back"
But that wouldn't be fair" l OBJ
iected. After all, Win loves it here.
He's made good in the business and
it would not be nice to get him
away" I we'll knew she could If she
wanted, for my aunt had enormous
social influence and coul IL she
chose make things so unpleasant for
Win, without his knowing what she
was doing, that she would practical
ly drive him out of town.
"It does not matter to me whether
he likes it here or not" she SAID
calmly. HE never belonged here.
He only came because you brought
him and introduced him. Naturally,
anyone who marries a would
be accepted anywhere"
I said nothing to this. My aunts
family pride was her strongest char
Lcteristic.
"Wel leave for Montreal tomor-
row on the 7:45," she said as though
that closed the whole discussion.

won't. I'm here and I'll stay. l
won't run away from any unpleasant

weakness. She's very fascinating and
personally l admire her a great deal.
But she is doing with Winthrop
what she did with someone else in

there any more by nice people,"
1 fancy I looked a little surprised,
for she went on:
