Poached or Dropped Eggs

Put as much boiling water into
the pan or spider as you think will
cover the eggs well, add a little
salt and also some prefer a table
spoonful of vinegar. Break the
eggs, one at a time, into a saucer
and slip into the hot water. The
eggs must be perfectly covered; so
add water, if you have not enough.
Allow the water to simmer
gently,-from three to four min
utes will be required. A perfect
casing of the white should envelop
each yolk, if skillfully done.
Remove with a skinner, drain,
place on a warm platter, and dust
with little pepper. A few small
bits of butter may be put on the
dish. Garnish with parsley OF
cress. An egg poacher is very
convenient. The eggs are broken
into the cups of the poacher, which
then should be submerged in the
boiling water until the eggs are
done, when they may be removed
/ TO the platter and seasoned.

these shoes do not tire your feet.
A one-strap black slipper with a
straight medium heel is often
well liked for this purpose.
For afternoon and informal
wear you will find useful a pair
OF rather fancy slippers or low

suede strap pumps that are very
attractive when worn with match
ing stockings. II is a good plan TO
select them with comfortable heels
because fashion no longer de-

wears much better and is OF course
more com fortab e for warm
weather. Suede or fine black
leather is more comfortable In
summer than patent leather.
For evening you will find that
the black satin slipper may be
used TO good effect for every sort
of evening occasion. Ii is better
to get a pair OF black satin slippers
if you can afford only one pair oi
evening slippers than any other

Do You -
Lose Things?

iW agree that in an office where
valuable papers are habitu-

to the problem of losing things
is to have it very easy to keep.

problems of efficiency experts in
business is to work out system OF
filing and storing that will make
is easier even for thoughtless
workers to put things where they
belong than where they do not.
The same thing applies to the
house as to the Office. Some
otherwise iii i n housewives

ing for things. Just TO make this
personal, ask yourself how often
you have to take time from the
regular routine of your work TO
look for things? II you aggregated
this time for a month or d year
wouldn't you find that you spent
an amazing amount of time in this
perfectly needless pursuit? Just
think of the time you spend look
ing for your purse? Think of the
time you have spent searching for
trunk keys or door keys? All this
time could be saved if you but had
some very definite place to keep
these things. 1t is a good plan TO
have one special place to keep
your purse when you are indoors.
