Dear Cynthla--Pleasc permit US to say
! a few things TO T. H., who calls all little
girls runts. Thank you.
We are two girls. both five feet two
inches tall, or. in other words, "runts,

with your requirements. as we arc sure
We would love and fight over such a
great big hero as YOU. Dc YOU always
get what YOU want and was there a time
when you wanted something and didn't
get 1t?
Well. Mr.. WeIshman. if we are runts,
what In the world do you consider YOUR
self? You ask why don't all Phlladel-
phia girls grow big and the answer Is
don't" Perhaps It Is the climate that
affected or stunted our growth, but what
delayed YOU? Our real surprise Is that
you didn't go back, after your sad disap.
IN Wales. where you say are such big
girls. Perhaps they know you too well.
or Is II because they. like our girls. want
great big men, men they can put con-
that It Is the little girl that rules the
world nowadays and is in great de.
rand. Had you asked for a tall. slender
girl. we could recommend a string bean,
but the only thing We can recommend
now is an elephant, and not q human
gether: II Is either one and SC it is with
height and weight. We wouldn't advise
you TO take a woman the size you mem
ton. as they are very expensive, require
lots more than little girls, SO think it
excuse yourself for calling the little
girls runts. as they are "only sweet,
little innocent things" and II you dc,
get your mate. the ono you request. YOU
had better tell her to buy you high
chair and a crib so that you won't fan
out.
Here's hoping you get what YOU want
and here's hoping that We may live 20

walking along the street arm in ann so
that the little runts will have the laugh

Everyone loves strawberry jam,
For a spread on bread or hot bis
cults, nothing seems to equal 1t. lts
wonderful flavor makes children OF
US all. Until now, however, an ex.
pert was required to make it. Until
now, also it has been expensive.
Certo, a natural product Of fruit,
has solved the problem SO that every.
one can make and cat this deli
cious conserve.
To Make Strawberry Jam by the
Certo Process:
Crush we'll in single layers about
two quarts of ripe berries, using
wooden masher and discarding all
green parts. Measure A cups crushed
berries, add the juice Of one
lemon and ~ leveled cups (3h
lbs.) sugar into good-sized preserv-
ing kettle. Mix we'll; stir hard and
constantly. Bring to vigorous boil
and boil hard 1 full minute, contin-
ually stirring. Take from fire and
add 1a bottle (scant n cup) Certo,
stirring it in we'll. Let stand min
utes only. by the clock, stirring oc-
casionally; skim and pour quickly
into sterilized glasses. Result is
10 half-pound glasses Of strawberry
jam for total cost of 81 cents
Strawberries at 30c a box and
sugar at &c lb.). Use this same
recipe with raspberries, blackberries,
dewberries and loganberries.
Important: Best way to seal Jams
and Jellies in open glasses. Cover
while hot with thin coat hot paraffin.
Next day add tablespoonful hot
paraffin to seal cracks around edge
formed by shrinkage on cooling.
This Certo process banishes all
the guess work or worry, as perfect

Read Your Character

Selling the Looped It"

II you were salesman who had just
Heeeiced letter from prospective Gus
toner. and you noted that this person
did not write ''t' in the customary
way. with Il straight up and down
stroke for the stem Of the letter. but
made It instead with a rather decided
loop, would it mean anything to you ?
Would it be any guide or warning to
you in your future personal interview
You should very carefully avoid crit
ixing such person. You should par.
ticularly avoid doing SO on any subject
which may be matter Of especial pride
with him.
For instance. If you we're trying to
sell him life insurance, and you knew
he was a man who was rather proud OF
his business foresight. it would be the
worst mistake you could make TO point
out to hin. that be was being incon
Etstent in not carrying insurance. The
only result such statement would be
likely to have would be to antagonize
him.

Can You Tell?
BY r. J. and 4. W. Bodmer
What Makes the Hollow Place in q
Hard Boiled Egg?

When an egg is boiled there is a hol.
low place at one end, or as sometimes
| happens. on the side. This is caused by
the air which is held within the egg, so
, that the little chicken which would de-
velop from the egg If IL had been devoted
to its real purpose will have DIR to
breathe from the time it comes to life
until it is strong enough to break the
shell and 80 out into the world.
When you boil the egg, this pocket
Of air begins TO fight for its space and
pushes the inside of the egg back. form.
ing the hollow place. There Is also food
in the egg on which the little chick
feeds so as to get the strength neces-
sary to peck its way out. Only a little
air and food Ia required by the baby
chick. because it breaks out Of its shell
within n short time after it comes to
life.
The color of the eggs of birds and
fowl varies a great deal. This is n wise
provision of nature to help the mother
hide her eggs from the eyes of her
enemies. In the animal kingdom every
kind of life is the natural prey of some
seek to catch and cat them. Few birds
can fight back. SO they fly when danger
threatens. The mother bird must thus
leave her nest. At other times she must
search for food. In order that the eggs
left alone will have a better chance OF
escaping discovery, they are given the
color Of the surroundings. Some Of then.
