PERPETUATES IDEALS OF
THE LATE JACOB A. RllS
Mrs. Jacob a. Riis
BY HALE
NEA Sprvipn Wpifpr

NEW YORk.-The widow of the
greatest friend the poor people of
New York-and elsewhere-eyer
had is p~erpetuating his ideals, but
in a far different way.
She is Mrs. Jacob A. Riis. For the
last seven years Mrs. Riis has been
manager of the woman's department
of a New York bond and stock COM
pany, and has striven to keep many
women from CHANGING all their saw
ings Ct some doubtful enterprise.
Now she is conducting a course in
the principles of investment to wom-
men attending Columbia University.
AS financial adviser, Mrs. Riis
hopes to help those poor people her
husband had SO long been befrrieno-
ing, to get them out of the rut q
poverty and into a more independent
life based on thrift and intelligent
investment. They had known her
husband, he who had told society
How the Other Half Lives,' and
had held perfect faith in him. Now
they bestow that same faith on his
widow, and seek her advice finan-
cially.
THAI advice she passes on to you,
through a talk l have just had with
her.
Save First
1.-THE first step toward the eco
monte independence of women" she
begins is a ban account.
There's no amount too small to
begin with. The smallest one will
grow if you tend it regularly. AS
soon as you have accumulated one
hundred dollars-it doesn't need to
be more-you are ready to make
your money earn more money for
you.
you can INVEST in real estate,
stocks or bonds. Or you can SPECU-
Late. The trained woman invests,
The ignorant, or the Get-Rich-Quick
woman, is most likely to speculate
Concerning speculation, Mrs. Riis
offers no advice, except not to-. But
in regard to investment, she says:
Seek Advice
"When you are ready to invest, get
in touch with a thoroughly estab-
lished house-your bank will usually
suggest safe ones. Don't answer the
most tempting advertisements OF al
low yourself to be influenced too
much by the personality of a sales
man. Look for sound judgment
rather than personal attention.
IF you invest in real estate, be
sure it is not based on inflated val
ues. Fix in your mind the differ
ence between stocks and bonds. A
bond is really a convenient form of
mortgage on property too large to be
owned by an individual. When you
buy a bond you have loaned none

on security for which you are to re-
eeive interest and the full amount on
a given date.
"When you buy stock you become
a partner in business and when the
company is prosperous, you share
the profits. When it isn't YOU share
the depression"
Many Baskets
Mrs. Riis advises the woman with
a thousand dollars for investment
not to play all her money on one
horse, but choose at least two differ
ent securities. In investing $4,000
She advises a distribution of me
thousand in five different companies.
"No matter how prosperous a cor
~poration is, it is well not to put all
your money into it, she says. ALSO
it is wise to spread investments
throughout the country, so that If a
slump hits industries in the east you
stand a chance of a boom on your
western stock.
These are factors TO watch out for,
she concludes:
"SAFETY, that is the prospects
and standing of a company;
YIELD, which includes the return
on your money; APPRECIATION,
the prospect of gain in value; MAR
RELIABILITY the ability to turn it
into cash Immediately and adVan-
tageously if necessary, and d.
NERSITY."

and explained that not only has work

termed the expression of the Jews

said: with the eVer-increaslnS

ness and welfare is not in some way

Making Marriage Happy-Eor Men
The great surgeon speaks. Not to
tell us how to sure a cold. or a corn.
or what to do for a burned thumb.
or an edgy temper till the doctor
comes.
Being a man, and therefore an
authority on the subject of marriage,
he hands us this:
THE best marriages are those
where the man and m know
the other we'll before they enter
wedloek. L waited seven years for
my wife, though 1 do not think Ser
sons contemplating marriage should
necessarily wait so long.
yet it is we'll to wait long enough
to know something about each
others health and character"
Romance is primarily an illusion,
a sort of self-hypnotism. 1t is diff
cult for a sane person to keep him
self or herself hypnotized for a
great length of time. Sooner or
later somebody lets the cat out of
the bag and everything is off.
The good doctor may be right. He
probably has a formidable array Of
authorities to back him up in his
assertions. We've nothing but II
own two fists, none too competent,
when it m TO settling argu-
ments.
But there is such a thing as carry
ing a good proposition too far.
There is such a thing as knowing
each other so well. that the more
the mutual education progresses,
the farther off are the wedding bells.
We wish the Silent Sex talked a
little more freely for publication on
the subject of happy marriages, and
didn't let the men have all the say.
The only data we now have avail
able is on how to make marriage
happy-for men.

Ways To
Prepare Rabbits
By Sister Mary

CUnless otherwise specified, the re
cipes given here are designed for
four persons).
These are the days when the poor
little Dummies who jumped and
scampered so merrily last summer
as we drove through the country
find nothing merry about their scam
pering. Dogs and men hunt them
eagerly and the rabbits scamper for
their lives.
The cook usually receives a rabbit
skinned and dressed. She should be
sure that the little sort of kernels
under the forepaws have been re-
moved as these recent the wild taste
and impart a strong, rather unpleas-
flavor to the meat.
If a wild rabbit is frozen for Il
hours the flavor is greatly improved.
In any event let the rabbit stand in
cold salt water W. night.
No matter how the rabbit is to be
cooked and served it should be par
boiled in boiling water to cover with
a medium sized onion. This destroys
the wild unpleasant taste and does
not make the meat taste of onion.
Fried Rabbit
After rabbit has soaked in salt
water disjointed and parboiled for 10
minutes with onion. Remove from
water and throw onion and water
away. Put rabbit in kettle, cover
with boiling water and simmer until
tender. When rabbit is about hall
done add salt. 1t will take about an
hour to cook the meat. Drain from
water, roll in flour and fry in hall
butter and half lard. Make a gravy
in the frying pan, using half rabbit
stock and half milk or cream for
liquid.
