milk alternately. little at time.
until all the -four is used and
enough milk has been used to make
a drop batter. Bake in we'll
creased and Toured pans. The re-
cipe makes about eight cup cakes
or two ten-inch in diamter layers
or a loaf cake.
Decide on the pans and get them
ready before starting the cake. BE
sure that your oven is in readiness
as soon as the cake is mixed
cup cakes take about twenty-five
minutes. Layers take about twenty
minutes. A loaf takes about forty
five minutes.
Because YOU are making one
egg cake there need be no lack OF
variety to your cakes. Stir in half
teaspoon of vanilla extract or
lemon extract just before putting
the mixture into the pans.
After measuring the flour take
out one-fourth cup of ii and subSti-
tute one-fOurth cup of dark cocoa.
Bake this cake in layers and put
together with marShmallow. Sprin

Another variation of this cake
may be had by adding half tea
spoon of several spices when sift-
ing flour and baking powder. In
stead of milk, thin apple sauce or
strong coffee may be used.
Other variations will occur to the
resourceful housewife. SO put away
the excellent recipes you have for
cakes calling for more than ons
egg until eggs get reasonably cheap

Some Hints
on Dyeing

There Is a fascination In reno
waiting an old garment. In eyolv-
ing something new and bright
fron something old. The dye pot
holds many possibilities when in
the hands OF an efficient works-.
In the FIRST place do not expect
too much. II the cloth Is worn
or roughed up IL will still look
worn and roughed when IL comes
from the dye. You can change
colors and do away with spots
and streaks, but no amount OF
dyeing can restore material to its
former brilliance and newness.
The faded garment, which yet
contains much wear is the one to
experiment with. BE sure II is
thoroughly clean, washing and
rinsing II well. Dye while still
moist, following explicitly the di-
rections given on the package.
Fabrics OF solid shade color
better than those OF stripe or plaid
design. Figured effects show sf-
ter dyeing the same as before.
II the design has been in the
weave only. the goods will be
just as pretty as ever.
when fabrics are OF two or
more colors the result OF dyeing
will be combinations OF the orig
inal colors. when contemplating
dyeing such material IL is good
policy TO choose a dye similar to
or darker than the prevailing
color. Soft clingy fabrics take up
dye much more readily than those
of stin wiry texture.
Cpepe-de-chine and other light
wash silks being quite easily dyed.
while taffeta and some of the
heavier grades are slow to take the
dye. requiring constant stirring
that all parts may receive the dye
alike, otherwise the goods may
come out spotted. Good ribbons dye
well, but II is a waste OF time and
money to attempt the cheap grades
Choosing right colors to apply over
the original is quite a factor toward
gaining wanted results. Most dye
manufacturers furnish free pam
phlet, which explains all about
colors as well as methods, and how
to get the best results.
There Is no reason why anyone
should not learn to be successful in
this art OF transformation IL they
go about 1t in the right way. There
is much to be saved in the process.

HE TELLS THE WORLD
1T ISN'T.

=
I'll tell the world marriage isn't
a success.
And why not?
First, because of our failure to
recognize. and timidly to admit, tho
roots of love and marriage in sex.
Whether we like it or not. that's
the fact. And what fools we are!
How many lives are blasted, how
many homes wrecked, how many
unoffcnding children brought into
a world of discord and quarreling
and raised in an atmosphere OF
Misery, all because we choose T..
blind ourselves to this facial be-
cause of our damnable prudery!
Instruct children not only in the
negations Of sex, but in the privi-
leges also. Teach them not only
that the sex instinct, misguided, is
loathsome and blasting|teach them
also that the sex instinct, correctly
obeyed, is beautiful and ennobling.
These are truths that will have to
be practiced befoN m.,riage b.
comes success
A couple cooperative in finan-
cial way, congenial in habits, mated
in age, race, and social position,
will. nevertheless, miss happiness
IL physically unsuited.
The second big reason is oui
practice OF commercializing marri-
age. In the very sound-'married"
we get that numting chill of the
prosaic.
1t is death to love. AS soon as we
take away the atmosphere in which
love fourishes. it dies. Marriage
should be a lifetime OF courtship.
Just because you've won him-oT
hers no reason for laying down
on the job. Don't get careless;
don't get dowdy. Seek ever to at
tract your mate as you did in tn,
days before marriage.

Emotion and
Your Child

What inner force daily spurs
your child into action? What subtle
energy is to become the established
motive of his career?
Hate, fear. pride, sympathy. hope,
love-such is the family of emo
tions which the psychologists tell
us govern more than 95 per cent of
the important acts of our lives.
Have we teachers. therefore,
acted unwisely in emphasizing so
much the necessity of thinking, rea-
soning, and the calmer judgment?
l suspect we have.
Having once accepted the idea
that emotion does predominant in
the life of the ordinary individual,
the practical question which con-
fronts us parents is this: How far
up in the ascending scale of emo
tional self-government may we lead
our children during their formative
wears.
HATE. FEAR. PRIDE.
Hate is n powerful emotion, as
was proved in the late war.
t'ear is another spur to action,
one step above hate; for example,
fear of punishment. of sickness. of
poverty. of death. 1t has been said
that the great masses scarcely as
cend above the level of fear as the
chief handspring of action. But
fear is inherently a childish emo
ton. And, if we remain under its
dominance, are we not retarded in
our development?
Pride, with it's kin emotions of
envy and jealousy, is likewise at
best only youthful tendency and
not part Of the full-grown per-
sonality. pride goeth before de-
struction." Pride eats the heart
out of its possessor."
Beyond pride must, therefore, be
our rule of training.
SYMPATHY. HOPE, LOVE.
Sympathy-to suffer with-is an
emotion of higher and deeper signi-
ficance. Certainly we may make
use of this impulse in the lives of
our children, for it means that they
Will recognize the weakness, the
suffering AMI the sorrow of others
but with the idea of assisting them
out of that trouble where hate
would destroy, where fear would
cringe or flee, where pride would
throw another down: sympathy
would lift him up and minister unto
MIN.
Hope springs eternal in the hui
man breast" Hope seeks the
highest as it's goal and plunges on
unafraid."
Love is the fulfllment of the
law" the highest of all emotions
Perhaps that celebrated chapter OF
First Corinthians is the most sue
cessful effort in all literature to
define love. But parents can and
should connect this tremendous
emotional force with the practical
routine training of their children.
The child must be led to discover
himself in others and others in
himself. There will slowly dawn
in his mind sense of fellowship,
a sense of belonging to others, and
finally n universal good will
To conclude, as your child ascends
this scale of increasing emotional
values--under your patient and
concrete guidance he will slowly
give up the lower for the higher
the old for the new.
