Helleu finds this youthful expression

says among American women. Thus he

I'd get a merger and mix butter and milk

have poached or scrambled eggs made with

prunes. All men like baked apples Don't

Mrs Allen picked up a menu from one
Of the moderate priced restaurants and Sc
lected a perfectly wholesome dinner for the
fat man. 1t included consomme baked
mackerel Ia creole, spinach, brussels

Fat Women Can Find Hope of Thnness in Use of Balanc

"A few months ago a fat woman came to
me with tears i'm her eyes," Mrs. Allen re-
lated. she said her husband didn't love
her any more, that she was miserable and
wanted to learn to be selfsupporting so she
could get divorce. She had visions OF
opening a tea shop
You don't know how to dress I told
her. How can you expect any man to care
for you when you make yourself look such
fright? OF course his eye is attracted by
younger and better dressed women. Why
don't you try making the most of yoursef?' 2

She had let her mind go to seed. Then
sent her Off full of a new hope. In three
months she returned looking like different
woman She was well and attractively
dressed. her complexion had improved, she
carried herself well and she wore a happy
smile.
My husband is crazy about me- she cried
proudly We get on beautifully now and
our home is happy once more.'"
Mrs Allen knows what she is talking about
when she discusses flesh reduction and the
science of ordering meals. She herself

months had come down to 1876, all by follow

A wife who Is overweight and earnestly
tries TO get off the necessary number Of
pounds can offer wholesome meal that
both she and her husband, who may be thin
and have a good appetite, can eat and enjoy
without destroying the happy home. On the
other hand wife OF the thin, intellectual
type, who Is married to n fat business man,
can provide balanced meal that will satisfy
him and at the same time reduce him to
normal weight without letting him feel that
he Is being deprived of the food he wants.

equilibrium There must be certain protec-
tive foods in every meal. and each meal

would contribute more to national health
than well balanced meals
When the boys were examined for service
hundreds of them were found undernour-
ished. Malnutrition is found among the ex-
cessively fat as well as among the excess

Women have the entire destiny OF our
country in their hands. They don't realize
that the fate of the nation centres around
that little kitchen range. The housewife
should be an artist. Her palette IL the stove
and she mixes foods just as an artist paints
picture with brush Her husbands sue
cess and the future of her children depend
upon the way shs orders and prepares their
food.
III wife has a fat husband it's all her
own fault II she wants to thin him she can
do 1t and he will cooperate And the best
part Of the balanced ration Is that II you

II will stay down. 1t doesn't make the flesh

will be firm and your color better.
What Most Women Don't Know
About Relative Food Values
Some women understand instInctivey
balancing meals. Good taste directs them.
Others. who have been brought up to eat
five starchy foods at one meal, continue
doing so from force of habit. And they teach
Il TO their children

them about food values" suggested Mrs.
Allen. Perhaps one out Of the ten will un-

been educated. They feed their families
quantities of starchy foods and sweets. This
builds up flesh and causes autointoxication

and see what they order. They invariably
take chocolate topped with whipped cream.

Balanced Meals Keep You Young
And Make for Home Happiness

The young culinary genius lectured under
the United States Food Administration dur
ing the war and Is an authority on baanced
meals, which she says arc the real founda-
tion OF home happiness and the means of
keeping yourself young and sprighty enough
to successfully rival any girl your husband
happens TO take kindly to.
The balanced meal is also the highroad To
a well balanced home atmosphere. II your
husband is fat and you are thin this
authority teaches you how TO feed him so
that he will lose flesh but keep good nature
Her lessons also instruct fat wives how to
prepare or order meals that are sufficiently
nourshng and satisfying for the wife who
is trying to reduce and cause no words OF
complaint from the thin husband. In other
words balanced food will balance domestic
av ordupos.
As an instance OF the important part food
and fat play In the life of married pairs, Mrs.
Allen recited a sad tale, with. however. a
happy ending.

Feed Your Husband Heartily
In the First Meal of the Day

If you want to send your husband off to
business good natured see that he has suf-
ficent to eat to last him until luncheon"
said this expert. Don't give him a crust
Of bread and a(cup of coffee and think he
has had enough. A happy breakfast atmos-
phere is most important Make yourself look
attractive, is the first point. The psychology
of dress is a thing to study. Give your
husband all the fresh fruit he wants. Don't
serve one portion and don't give him
bananas. They are more fattening than
potatoes. Have at least three kinds Of fruit
for him TO select from. Apples. grapes and
oranges are almost always in season.
Gluten bread is not fattennig. Give him
toast made of this bread or have gluten pan
cakes or gluten waffles He might have
small piece of butter, but there Is better
thing to substitute that Is not fattening.

THE HAIL

1t becomes more and more evident
that both Roosevelt and McCone
counties have so far been very for
tunate in the matter of hail losses.
The fields that have been hit IN both
counties, for either total or partial
losses, are estimated to be less than
one per cent of the total acreage.
Reports describe terrible losses in
Sheridan. Daniels and Richland coun-
ties and heavy losses in Valley. Some
districts had more than the storms
of July 18th. At Scobey a bank that
had written 100 hail policies had los
ses on 154 of them. But in general
there seems to have been but a small
portion of the destroyed fields insur-
ed. Sheridan county reckons its
losses in millions.
When it is considered that nearly
all of the country hit had grain fields
that compared favorably with the
best ever produced in the Northwest,

tally realized. Expectations of yields
of rs to 35 bushels, and even more,
of wheat were fully warranted, it is
claimed.
The losses are too great for indi-
viduals and communities to sustain,
and the shock is bound to be felt
outside the communities in which
they occur. There must be some
sound and workable plan to be evolv-
de from the universal insurance idea
by which the losses resulting from
such catastrophies, as those describ-
ed in our neighboring counties, could
be spread and equalized and the cost
of protection greatly reduced. Here
is a real problem in constructive
statecraft for business-farmer-legal
heads to wrestle with.

The Great Falls Realtors will have
the support and sympathy of every
Montana patron, as well as retail
dealers, and automobile handlers, in
the attempt to make the big com
panies play fair to the state. How
ever, a little investigation on the part
of some constituted public official
would probably help more than all of
the support and sympathy of every
victim in the state. What is needed
is action on the part of someone.
Making it plain also that it is not the
retailer nor the automobile dealer
who is at fault.
