moth. How to keep this meddle-
some insect out Of the closets,
the rugs and from feasting on
Winter garments is a most both
ersome problem. The moth is flut-
tering about the house depositing
it's eggs where they may hatch in
safety and be assured of the
proper food. When one realizes
that it is not the moths them
selves that do the damage, but
the greedy newly hatched larvae,
methods of control become more
apparent.
The usual moth balls. cedar
shavings and like odorous sub
stances used to keep moths out
of clothing will not kill either
moths, eggs or the young larvae.
The most that can be expected Of
them is that their repugnant odor
will repel the moth and discour-
age her from depositing her eggs
in the particular place she was
about to select. For that reason
the important thing to be sure
of is that no eggs are in the gar
ment when it is put away. This
is accomplished by thorough brush
ing, summing, airing, or even
dry cleaning.
Napthalene flakes or balls when
used in sufficient quantity appar-

Yema Quenada
a Dessert
BY Alice Langelier

HHPAIN comes to Paris every
~ Friday night in the shape of
~ Yema Quemada which makes
a delicious dessert.
Make a light syrup Of two
pounds of sugar with a quart of
water. Put into a bowl the
yolks of twelve eggs and two
whites. Beat until they become
thick as for a mayonnaise sauce.
Pour this into the boiling syrup,
taking precaution to put aside
a small bowl Of the syrup. The
eggs will rise rapidly when poured
into the syrup. Smooth down
with a wooden spoon.
Let simmer over a slow fire
for about an hour, adding a bit of
the syrup If it becomes too dry.
The mixture is done when it
seems to stick a bit to- the bot.
tom of the casserole. Stir often.
When done pour out into a large

never has brought me happiness.
The minute / let myself care for
a man he hurts me. I've been
disappointed and disillusioned over
and over. The only way to find
peace and security is to close
your heart against love-"
Imagine saying the only way
to make a garden is to keep the
sunlight out! But that would be
precisely as sensible as to insist
that life Can be made to bloom
and give cut fragrance and per-
fume and joy without love to
warm it to life and beauty.
So when you start to cry out
against love and to say that it
has hurt you-stop to think of
: this question! What have you
done for love?
Have yoa demanded that love
must make you happy, content
you, thrill you, satisfy, stimulate,
and hold your attention and SYM
pathy? Why should 1T? How can
it when you do nothing in return?
Love means giving. And the
minute you start thinking of what
You can get from love, you take
it out Of sunlight and into shadow.
Sunlight is generosity. Shadow is
miserliness-the desire to get and
hoard.
If you really love, you will not
think of yourself. You will not
count what is due you. You will
not be over concerned with your
