Escorts forgotten

Dear Miss Lee: We are two girl chums,
is years old and not silly. The other day
we went 10 a party and met two of the
incest boys who brought us home. Our
osro-ts are mad now because did not
let them bring us home. Miss Ice, do you
think II was all right to let these new boys
kiss us goodnight We like them very well,
but they have not asked to take US any
where yet How can we win their love?
THEM RED-HEADED GALS.
You did a very foolish and rude
thing-the sort OF thing well-bred girls
are not supposed to do. The best you
can do is to profit by this experience.
You had no reason to neglect your
escorts. And of course you should
not have kissed these boys. who were
practically strangers.

Dill can be dried and used during
the winter months when greens are
scarce, in plain salads. egg salads and
with creamed fish Let stand in cold
water to freshen It for winter use in
salads.
And nearly every one likes the tang
Of dill in pickles with wiener or club
sandwiches.
Dill pickles are usually made of
cucumbers from three to four inches
long. The cucumbers can te put into
the brine as gathered a few at time,
until the crock containing them is
full. Then cover with grape leaves
to keep crisp and take care of any top
spoilage.
Dill Pickles
Wash cucumbers and wipe smooth
and dry Make a brine Of four quarts
Of water and one quart salt. Put GU
cumbers in brine, cover with a weight
to keep under the brine and let stand
twenty-four hours. Remove from
brine. Put a layer Of dill in the bot
tom Of a deep crock. Add cucum-
bers to almost half fill the crock.
Add another layer Of dill and fill
crock to within two or three inches
from the top. Cover with a layer
of dill.
Pour over a brine made Of four
quarts Of water. one and one-half
quarts vinegar and one quart salt.
Boil this mixture for ten minutes. Let
stand till cool and pour over cucum-
bers. The brine must completely
cover the cucumbers to prevent mold.
Put a layer of the grape leaves over
the whole.

Silk Apparel
To wash silk stockings and under

fairly strong borax water, then wash

You're not in love. Those other
'good-looking" fellows may draw ad-

DEFYS

There's one champion who doesn't
need any urging to battle. Just
the mention of a fight to him,
and it's on. That is Johnny Dun
dee, the featherweight king, and
it's willingness to oblige, as much
as his own great ability, that has
made him so popular. Under the
handling Of Jimmy Johnston, it's
a safe wager that Dundee will be
the most active of all the cham
pions sdilrfag the indoor season.
Dundee is coming back to the
lists within a few weeks now, and
Jimmy Johnston is keeping his
staff of stenographers busy send
ing out material telling of the Won
derful Italian. Directing his at
tack at Benny Leonard is the main
object now, but it will not be for
long if the promise to give Benny
$4,000 the moment he steps into
the ring with Johnny is made SUBJ
stantial. It's a big inducement
even for a big money-maker like
Leonard.
