Faporite Recipes
 of Famous Men
By REX BEACH ONION CLAM CHOWDER

To each 10-ounce can of Pioneer Brand minced clans use one pound of sliced Spanish or white onions.
 Cut the onions in length one inch long. Pour juice from the clans (minced) into saucepan, add onions and @ little water and boil thorough ly until onions are we'll cooked and sofr. Then add clans which have been taken out of the can and put itno dish. and stew five minutes be- fore onions are done.
 Next place in stew pan about a pint of cream, or half cream and half milk, and let come to q boil.
 After the clans have been in with the onions for about three minutes pour on the hot milk and season to taste with salt and repper. In serv- ing in soup plate, little chopped parsley adds to the attractiveness of the dish. Then eat it.
 You can substitute for fresh milk or cream Carnation canned milk di- luted to two-thirds milk and one third water. The soup should be thick and not too watery. This can be regulated by amount of milk added.

With a low moan, the girl dropped into d chair and buried her face In her hands, her body shaken by sobs she could not control.
 oh. he, too, has gone-just as Mother went-and he was all I had. Oh,-Father- Why didn't go home with you yesterday?"
 Then as sense of her loneliness swept over her, she sprang to her feet.
 Let me go home at once" she begged Miss Hall Let me go! There may be some mistake''- Hush, my dear! There Is no mis- take." the principal said. the tears rolling down her cheeks. He was taken suddenly ill in the night. He managed to ring the bell at the head of his bed. and the housekeeper, an- swering 1t. sent at once for the doc. tor and for Mfr Muir. But there was nothing to be done. It was MT. Muir who telephoned me at o'clock this morning. He warned mo not to tell you until I must. He is coming out for you. He will be here soon. Dear chil4-you must be calm"
 Winifred's sobs ceased.

Your Home and You
By HELEN KENDALL
FAULTLEss FoOTGEAR

"If I can achieve beautifully -shod feet and a good looking hat, I'll risk the rest of my costume" declared a well dressed woman recently.
 And she was right With shoes that have good lines are appropriate to the occasion and are exquisitely cared for a woman has fulfilled Article | of the IA points of good dressing. The first glance of many women, and fully as many men, goes direct to the footgear of every wom- an they meet, and she is silently judged by the attention sne has given to this important item.
 To have we'll -shod feet at all times means, first, enough changes of shoes so that no one pair gets too steady wear. Shoes need rest just as bodies do. The second requirement Is care -scrupulous, daily care. To begin with, 1t is economy to have several pairs of streets shoes, used alter nately, rather than one pair that is worn necessarily until worn out. A pair of trim brown oxfords. alter mated with a wheeled strap pump or pair of suede tie pumps, will last three times as long as three sue cessive pairs of street shoes. A day or two of rest will prevent that fatigue" of which the machine experts speak.
 Another thing, do not wear street shoes in the house. The moment you come in, exchange the heavier shoes for a pair of house pumps. lighter in weight and prettier in line, perhaps. Put the street shoes on trees, and thoroughly clean them at once. Dirt rots leather just as it does fabrics. In your closet have a shoe-shelf that Is raised above the floor Keep evening slippers covered with a clean cloth. on dainty shoe trees. away from all dirt.
 Lastly. don't let your shoes get battered looking. Don't wait until the heels are badly run over before having them fixed. Keep the soles in good shape by taking them to the shoemaker the moment they begin to wear thin. Keep shoes immacu- lately polished at all times, put fresh laces in laced shoes often. and when they begin to look, as one girl said, Hike the last sad days of a mis- spent life" discard them or keep them for working In the garden on a muddy day.

K INFAMOUS
 lI II MEN
By MARY ADRIAN N

MOTHER OF EDWIN A. ABBEY
 The child of his mother. whose strongest characteristic was an ab- solute incapacity for self-deeeption, was Edwin A Abbey, one of Amer ica's few great painters. Mrs Ab- bey was a woman who thought for herself, and would not tolerate any thing that remotely resembled bunk" fraud.
 Although she was originally q Calvinist, her association with the Quakers of Philadelphia, which was her home, made her a great deal n ore broad-minded on the subject of religion. She abhorred hypocrisy and quackery of any sort, whether in medicine or reli zion, and formu- latde her own beliefs, which she taught to her son.
 She was woman who worked hard and who kept everyone around mind and was determined to have her son become a professional man. As she thought but little of the min istry or medicine, she decided that he should be lawyer, and sent him to school with that idea in mind.
 When, however, she found that no amount of forcing. would interest him in studies, or make him lose his interest in drawing. she abandoned the idea. He inherited her own strength of mind and will and could rot be forced, any more than she could be. She realized this, and was rather pleased at his determination She allowed him to enter the print ing business, as this was considered sufficiently allied with drawing to make him happy for the time being From that time on she made no CT fort to swerve him from his course and did everything she could to help true to himself, which was all she asked of anybody.

DREAMS OF FLATTERY AND
 PRAISE

PRAISE
 Sweet are dreams of flattery--not only because they are pleasing in themselves, but because, in most ings. Naturally, there are excep- tions. Some accompanying incident may change the meaning, and praise in dreams then becomes the opposite in life. But, most often, they are good omens.
 Of the greatest significance to un- married women. or to married wom- en who are separated from their hus- bands, are dreams in which a man with whom they have had a quarrel. or whom they have not seen In some time, or whose affection they Have themselves or someone else. 1t Is hard to draw a line between flattery and praise and you had best accept both as meaning the same thing. Remember, then, that
 Praising what seems lost
 Makes the remembrance dear,
 And closer and more near
 It grows when once retrieved.
 And when the day of reconciliation comes foreshadowed by the dream for the near future, you will be hap pier than ever you were before.
 Now. 1t happens at times that a woman will dream that man praises her about something that de- serves no praise-he may say she has very pretty hands and yet she knows that she has not. This, too, is good sign:
 It matters not how false or forced, So the best things he said O the worst.
 miration--sincere willingness to overlook small shortcomings because of other beauties, virtues and excel fences. A dream of this sort means that the woman is sincerely admired and that, should she marry the man in question, he will never find fault with her small blemishes.
 The same thing holds good of let ters praising the dreamer, especially if the letter comes from man for whom she has a soft, warm heart. She may rely ls)on it that what seems mere friendship will soon ripen into love: or, if love Is already an engagement:
 when we praise.
 Advance it into notice. that it's worth Acknowledged, others may admire it.
 too.
 Place no faith in visions, however in which someone. who has offended SDu III idCe, slVcS you pTalSo Tn q dream.
 Some blame at morning what they
 praise at night,
 But always think tho days opinion
 right.
 Such a dream should strengthen you in the conviction that the man or woman in question has no use for you.
 If you lavish praise or flattery upon a man. the dream means that you will soon be in most intimate re- lations with him to whom your heart belongs and you will no longer find yourself restricted in bestowing your caresses-the bonds of matrimony will enable you to give free rein to your admiration and devotion.
 Dreams in which you praise a woman, or are praised by her, indi- cate that really sincere friendship exists between you and another girl and that your attachment to each other is too deep and lasting to ever be disturbed by small jealousies. When you are being praised by an older person, no matter of what sex or whether stranger or relative, your dream tells you that you will receive aid. either in money or other mat ters. from someone in excellent cir cumstances. However. the dream also means that you will be in need of such assistance.

Indeed the Flying Squirrels could hear the steps of the bottle imp and the Geewhiliker s they clomped up the stairs.
 Quick" ; cried Freddy Flying Squirrel. Get upon our backs! will take the picnic lunch and We will save you,"
 Betsy Bonnet String and Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy climbed upon the Flying Squirrels backs just as the bottle imp and the Geewhiliker reached the top steps. Then the fly ing squirrels ran out q limb and jumped. They swooped down and across the giggling brook and with a graceful sweep upward landed upon the other side without even bouncing their passengers. Then they spread their lunch out upon the soft grass and enjoyed it.
 And because they were such sell fish troublesome creatures, the bot tie imp and the Geewhiliker had to watch them from the other bank and did not even get one little teeny Weeny bite.

"Whee. There they are" the bot tie imp and the Geewhiliker both yelled. Of course, Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy and Betsy Bonnet String heard them and started run ming. They ran until they came to hollow tree and into this they went. When inside, they saw steps leading right up to the top. They ran up the steps and the bottle imp and the Geewhiliker followed.
 What shall we do?" Raggedy Ann asked as they raced up the steps. No one answered, for when they reached the top there they found Freddy and Freda and Florence Flying Squirrel sitting having picnic party.
 "You are just in time for our pie nic!" the Flying Squirrel children said.
 But we haven't time" Betsy Bon net String replied. The bottle imp and the Geewhiliker are after us and there is no door to close and keep them from coming up hero and catch

children fed unduly upon sweets and given too high percentage of car bohydrates; in other words, chil- dren whose diet contains more sugar and starch than it should. To cor rect these errors in diet 1t is necessary to furnish q more liberal supply Of fruits, young tender greens, coarse cereals and milk.
 Repeated attacks of nightmare should not be disregarded. They may be forerunners of more serious dis turbance of the nervous system. If the child is at school. he should be removed into more tranquil atmos- phere. X change of scene and air acts beneficially. Sometimes the at tacks cease like magic when someone in whom the child has confidence shares his bedroom. A spray of cold water over the spine administered once or twice daily tones up the nerv- ous system, while five grains of so- dium bromide in little water at bedtime acts nicely as a nerve seda- tive.

Then the roses that were tucked into the puffiness of the collar were made of a combination of gold gauge and mauve ribbons.
 You can do this same trick in all sorts of colors and the colors, after all. are the secret of it's charm. There is beautiful rose pink one with black and gray flowers used for the collar trimming. There is one made of black taffeta with a rich royal blue lining and silver roses used for it's collar You see. there are all sorts Of ways in which the idea can be car ried out and all of them are capable of producing great charm fer the wearer of the wrap on summers evening. Over a plain, draped dress cape of this sort is as fascinating as can be and one could wish no bet ter combination for making ones self attractive in the evening.

 You had your work. I have noth- inf" were the words that sprang to the girls lips, but she bit them back. Already there was creeping over her the sense of numbness and unreality that follow so often upon sudden shock.
 As the door closed behind Miss Hall, winifred sank again into q chair and shut her eyes She was trying to think, to visualize what had happened.
 She repeated the words that Miss Hall had used. He does not need anyone now. He is in pearfect peace.
 But the sentences meant nothing to her. She pressed her hands together in an agony of effort to grasp the fact that her father was dead.
 She remembered how he had looked yesterday. how pale he had been. Perhaps even then he was ill. Why had not someone done something to ward off the attack of last night?' But even as she asked herself this question, down in her heart she could not believe the dreadful fact that her tfather was dead.

A COLLAR FOR PARTY CAPE

Your new party cape must be taf- feta and the pla nof it is so simple that you can easily make it at home all by your little lonesome, if you want to. You just take about three widths of taffeta. as long as your own cape must be; then you gather all that fitness into a straight band of a collar and attach the picture collar which is the point of this story.
 It is a wide, double piece Gf taffeta, gathered along both edges and fas- tened to that same straight neck band. Then it is puffed in at places and tackled with sturdy stitches. And at the points of tacking there are fas- tened ribbon roses that con- stitute the decoration of that most becoming face framing device. The cape that is shown in the picture was made of lovely shade of light green taffeta. It was lined with golden gauge and finished with a gold and mauve ribbon sewn around its edges.

Ihat IS why they stopped.
 After they had rested awhile they decided they would start out and hunt Betsy Bonnet String again and this time they felt sure they we uld catch her.
 "Oh! I can almost taste the cream puffs now" the bottle imp said.
 "Oh" and I can almost taste the doughnuts with the large holes in them" the Geewhiliker said
 And so they walked along until they again came to the tree with the mushroom stairsteps and then they saw right away that it must have been the Raggedys and Betsy Bonnet String who had bumped them.
 Hal" cried the bottle imp, You betcha the next time I catch Betsy Bonnet String. I shall not let her get away!"
 Neither shall T." chimed in the Geewhiliker who was very hungry by this time.
 And so they followed until they saw the two Raggedys and Betsy Bonnet String ahead of them.
