~ OF course. II you don't Ike

using them often. But II you do,
then you might very well make
them a frequent substitute for
meat at dinner. And you can also
use them advantsgeously for the
substantial dish at luncheon.
Here are some especially good
recipes for using them in sub

and see II they are not worth

Then-apd Now

-VT old rule among men who
regarded themselves we'll
\ versed in matters OF social
conduct used 20 he that when
man married, all his Acquaintance
WITH former companions ceased
automatically, and that tho friends
OF his bachelor days were friends
no more unless they received cards
from him.
This practice was based on the
supposition that a bachelor might
with impunity associate Win
pretty much whom he wished. ana
that he might dine or sup with
persons much his inferior socially.
~ he chose TO, without actually
lowering his own social standards.
Needleas TO say, an unmarried
woman had no such privileges. AS
soon as the man married he put
sway bachelor privileges. and lest
he should bring discredit upon MS
wife by carrying over into married
life with him some OF his more
questionable friendships. these
Friendships automatically ceased
and no one had the right 10 Zee
offended when they did 50 termi
nate. To be a friend OF a man IL
bachelor days was one thing; t'
be made to understand that tha'
friendship was TO last after mar
rage was another thing.
This custom has survived onl!
IN a limited section OF society
among most young American mel
there "a no such differentiation be
