How to Grow Stout.

For a week or so / will desert my
stout friends in order to give, or
rather to repeat suggestion for my
thin ones. This is about taking a
certain fattening drink. which is not
difficult to make. which is one of the
most delicious drinks to take, and
which contains as much nourishment
as a full meal.
The drink is made by mixing two
tablespoonfuls of powdered matted
milk in little milk. in order to dis
solve it. When this is mixed well
let it stand while you beat up an egg.
Stir the egg into the matted milk and
fill the tumbler three-quarters full
with plain milk. Then add sweetened
chocolate sirup. This you can make
and keep on hand. 1t is nothing but
plain chocolate shaved down and

Make the Most of It.

In a large family q bunch of as
paragus doesn't go a very long way
unless some device is used to
"streach" the asparagus. Here are
some suggestions:
Asparagus Omelet.-Beat two eggs
and add a quarter teaspoon of salt
and two tablespoonfuls of hot milk
Put butter in the frying pan and when
melted add the egg mixture. Shake
the pan constantly until the egg be-
gins to brown on the under side To
determine this turn up the side by
means of an egg turner occasionally
to see whether it is browning When
1t begins to brown let it stand on a
cool part of the stove or, if you are
using gas, turn the gas down very
low. When it appears to be done
through sprinkle over it the tender
part Of a bunch of asparagus that has
been cooked and cut into small pieces
Allow it to heat thoroughly and then
fold the omelet. To do this run a
knife under the omelet all around to
prevent sticking, and then with the
egg turner fold it over onto itself.
Serve Immediately.
Asparagus With Eggs-Boil a
bunch of asparagus twenty minutes

deep pie-plate. buttering. sailing and
peppeTlnS Well. Beat 1Ouf eggs just
enough to break up the yolks, add a
tablespoon Of melted butter. with
pepper and salt. and pour upon the
asparagus. Bake eight minutes in a
quick oven, and serve imme ediately.
Asparagus on Toast.-Tie the bunch
of asparagus up with soft strong
when you have cut away the wood
and cook about twenty-five minutes
in salted boiling water. Have ready
some slices of crustless toast: dip
each in the asparagus liquor; butter
we'll while hot and lay upon heated
dish. Drain the asparagus, and ar
range on the toast. Pepper, salt and
butter generously.
Asparagus in Croustades.-To make
the croustades, cut bread in very
thick slices and scoop out~the center
SO as to form a shallow cup. Make
them all uniform in dimensions,
Brush the inside with melted butter
and place in the oven until they are a
golden brown. In the meantime cut
up asparagus in small pieces. saving
the tougher ends for soup. When ten

A Delicate Perfume.

A great many of my younger read
ers seem to think that the question
Of perfume is very important one,
and 1 suspect that they are right.
For certainly there is nothing worse
than to be constantly in the COM
pany of somebody who uses strong
perfumery in lavish quantities. A
good rule to remember is that no
perfume is always all right Too
much perfume is always all wrong
If you must economize. the first place
to begin is in the matter of per-
fumery.
And 1 might say also that if YOU
are going to be extravagant. the first
place to begin is in the matter of
perfumery. because any perfume or
sachet that is purchased should be
of the very best quality. There is
never any excuse for cheap perfumes.
1t is exceedingly difficult to make
perfumes at home. l have any num-
ber OF formulas. but l find from the
chemists that it is almost impossible
to fill them. and that some oil them
are very expensive indeed. Most
people who live in the country make
themselves rose jars, because of their
delightful odor, and some women use
the petals of other flowers in the
same way.
AS a general thing I think that
the incest way for a girl to give all
her personal belongings the delicate
scent that she prefers would be by
the use of sachet bags. Good sachet
powder is not necessarily expensive.
and a little of it, folded into a soft
puff of absorbent cotton and made
into a sachet bag is convenient
way of using the powder. These
little bags can be slipped among her
lingerie, into her travelling bags or
even carried in the pockets of her
coat. The fragrance from them will
be noticeable, yet not sufficiently no.
ticeable to be too obvious. After all,
the worst crime in the use of per-
fumery is that the odor becomes too
obvious.

mixed in hot water. with enough
sugar added to make a sweet sirup
out of it. You should add about three
TO six tablespoonfuls of it to the
glass of milk. Then fill up the tum-
bier with plain or whipped cream and
drink it..
The average food value Of an ordi-
nary size tumbler full of'this is about
500 calories. If you use an extra
large number. of course you increase
the amount of nourishment: therefore.
YOU should gain in weight that much
faster. 1 would advise you to drink this
just before you go to bed at night. 1t
is particularly nice If you eat a few but
tered waters with it,
In this way you do not destroy your
appetite for the other meals of the
day. A food expert has estimated that
500 calories of additional nourish-
ment every day should make one gain a
pound a week. This drink cannot help
making you fatter. because. though it is
rich, it is easily aSsimilated .

Three times Sammy Jay and his Dig

Trying to scare some one who won I
