Meditations of
a Wife
On Men-and Things
By Helen Rowland

On NlCh-duo hlhBS
At a dinner party a man thinks
chiefly of what is put before him
a woman, of what is put beside her.
A perfect lover is one who makes
you feel that it is breaking his heart
every time he leaves you.
As long as man loves a woman
he won't argue with her-but, when
a woman won't argue with a man,
her love is dead!
There is such an eternal glamour
about a wedding-ring that even the
woman who pawns hers to pay her
husbands fine for wife-beating sheds
tender tear over it.
When two women fall in love with
the same man he is usually the last
of the three to find out which Of
them he is going to marry.
A brides first establishment
comes with the removal of her bride
groom's collar, along with his dignity.
Nothing so robs a man of masculine
authority and attraction as the ex-
posure of his Adams apple above
starched shirtband.
|
When a bachelor observes his mar
ried friends, one by one, passing him
in the race for success. he begins to
wonder if Kipling was wrong-and
if, after all, a whip and spur
aren't more effective than free
rein.
The first sign of woman's love is
her desire to run her fingers through
mans hair; and the first sign of
a mans love is his willingness to let
her.
When a man processes to doubt all
women, you may be sure that, in his
simple, childlike vanity, he was too
dead sure of one woman.

Foxy Grandpa's
Stories
A Little Frog That Lives in
Peace

"Look, Foxy Grandpa" exclaimed
Bobby, as he pointed to a big bird
which looked like crane.
Having his lunch" / laughed.
Must feel awfully funny to have
a wriggly frog go right down your
throat" said Bobby. For that is what
he had Just seen the big bird gobble
down with a relish, and then start
looking for more.

when it is in his tummy," said Bun
ny, shaking from the very thought of
it. ...
81 wonder" ] laughed. "Well,
il it weren't for the snakes and birds
that eat up frogs there wouldn't be
room left in these tropical forests for
anything else to live-Nicaragua would
be Frogaragua."
THAT bird would be fine to have
in the garden, where the frogs drive
the guests into bed with their music,
wouldn't it, Foxy Grandpa" laughed
Bobby.
That would have been banquet
for that fellow, for sure" / said.
We went on through the thicket
and stopped for lunch.
Look under that bush there, Foxy
Grandpa. Do you see something red
and blue?"
Just then Bunny came up, and 1
said:
what is that little thing down
there under that bush, Bunny-that
little red and blue thing?
Bunny was down on all tours be-
fore you could say Jack Robinson,
and. little by little, he moved up to-
ward it.
Then he came quietly back and
said:
Frog"
"Frogw Bobby and 1 both whisp-
cred.
Wait a minute, and he'll come out, 3"
Bunny said in a very low tone of
voice.
We waited, and sure enough, out
came Mr.. Froggie. What a dapper
| little fellow he was, with his flaming
red waistcoat and his blue stockings.
Dressed up for a fancy dress ball, "
said Bobby.
Some costume" said Bunny.
But that's not put on just for
style"
was just about to ask Bunny
what he meant, when what should

one of those long-leggcd storks
He'll eat him up" whispered Bob
by.
YES" said I. lets save him.
It's a shame for such a gay fellow
to meet his fate in stork's tummy."
And ! made a motion to go toward
the frog.
Bunny pulled me back and / couldn't
understand why until he said:
Don't worry, Foxy Grandpa. That
bird won't cat that frog. just wait
minute and see what happens"
Over minced Mr.. Stork-right
straight for our pretty little frog.
thought this surely was his end. But
do you know that nothing happened?
No, sir. The stork took a loof
with one eye at what l considered
the most appetizing little frog l had
ever seen and then he walked right
away from him.
what does that mean, BunnyF
| asked.
THAT that frog cannot be
eaten. He may be either poisonous
or simply taste bad" replied Bunny.
"How does the stork know thatT

''Tae red and blue coat of that frog

Table Talks
Weeks Menus
By Alice Irwin
Lamb Chops
Hash Drowned Potatoes
Lima Beans
E------I IL ia Ia - La

three large and perfectly square meals
q day who asked me to tell his wife
how to make French apple pie. There
are several sorts of dishes which are
| served under that name, but here Is
the recipe which find easiest to
follow:
Cut three pared apples into eighths
and fill the bottom of pie pan which
has been lined with crust. Add one
fourth cup chopped nut meats, and
one-half cup raisins, and over them
place three apples which have been
pared and cut into quarters. Sift over
these one cup sugar which has been
sifted with one teaspoon cinnamon or
mace. Bake in a moderate oven $3.50
degrees) 90 minutes.
Served with whipped cream or with
the thickened cream which is some
times known as Dcvonshire cream, this
French apple pie makes a most de-
lectable dessert.
Lamb chops never lack popularity,
but they rarely appear on many tables
because of their high price. Upon the
special occasions that they are used
they are usually broiled-eithcr direct
ly under the flame or in hot frying
pan; this latter process is called, PAN
| brOiling The meat is best seasoned by
sprinkling the bottom of the cast-iron
or cast-aluminum frying pan with salt
| before the chops are put in. 1t should
never be necessary to use any fat ,
each chop carries sufficient fat for the
cooking. The chops are Drowned on
one side, turned and Drowned on the
other, then the flame is lowered slight
". the pan covered and the cooking
continued to 10 minutes, according
to the thickness of the chops.
The choice of the dressing to go
with a salad is entirely matter of
personal preference mine happens 20
be for French dressing with all yeSr-
table salads. TarragOn vinegar adds
to French dressing a delightful flavor.
1t IL usually purchased already pre-
pared but may be made at home by
! filling a quart mason jar with fresh
tarragon leaves chopped cOarsely'
adding three peppercorns and two
cloves and filling the jar with cider
vinegar. Cover and keep in cool
place, turning the jar every day. 1t
is ready for use after three or four
weeks.

England Studies Routes
 for Aviation Over India

LONDON, May 1s.-P-Sir sef- ton Brancker, director of civil avia. tion, returned to London recently af- ter having completed in four months a 17,000 miles journey by air to h. dia and back in the same airplane in which he started. The machine made the entire flight without single me- chanical breakdown.
 The purpose of the trip was to in- vestigate the possibility of conner cial aviation under tropical condi- tions. Sir Sefton declared upon his return that there should be no diff ficulty in crossing India by air, the route to be followed being up the valleys of the Indus and the Ganges, all flat country and where the con- ditions were not at all bad for fly ing.
 Sir Sefton said the actual flying time of the plane was 210 hours from London to Rangoon and back. He has reported on sites for air ship masts at Calcutta, Colombo, Delhi and Rangoon.

U. 5. Methods for Teaching
 Blind Lauded by German

BERLIN. May 1S.-(P)-America is leading the way in educational methods for the blind, in the opinion of Miss Betty Hirsch, director of the school for the blind founded during the World War by Germany's fa- nous oculist, Geheimrat .Silex.
 "The city of Cleveland" she ob. serves, "has found the ideal solution of the problem, in that education for the blind children is not. carried on in special schools for the blind, the blind pupils are interspersed among the sighted children. This proceed ure is of the greatest benefit not only to the blind children, but to the others as well, in that it accus- toms them to getting along with their less fortunate fellow pupils and shows them that a blind student can do full ly as well as a sighted one.
 "The feeling of human pride is quite as pronounced with blind peo- pie as it is with those enjoying eye sight. Self-conffdence can be en. couraged among the blind only if they feel that they are being offered an opportunity to show that they can hold their own in competition with others. If the blind are separa- ted from the sighted, this confidence can never be instilled in them. Am. erica is absolutely right in mixing the blind in with the sighted"

Representative Grier
 and Bride In Seward

Representative Ben Grier and bride arrived on the steamship Yukon Sat urday from Juneau, on their way to the Interior metropolis. MT. Grier was united in marriage to Mrs. Mary Hamilton, stenographer in the Sen- ate, at Juneau, May 12, by Rev. Dick CT. The romance was of short culmi- nation as Mir. Grier met his bride while attending a session of the legislature in Juneau. Her home is in Rockford, Indiana. and she had been in Juneau but a short time before receiving the appointment as official stenographer for the territorial senate. MT. Grier in private life is engaged in mining, and has large property interests in the Yentna district.
 Mir. Grier stated that Mir. Wemler of the Bureau of Mines will arrive on one of the next boats and will go to the district with MT. Grier to make re- port. Considerable development work has been done by MT. Grier and asso- ciates, on their group of claims, the ground having been we'll proven by over three years work. Two good strikes were made in that district last summer by Frank Irwin and Mat Hug ger on Mills Creek, the former oper- ating on Pass Creek. Plenty of water is available and supplies are now be- ing shipped in from Talkeetna. Flaw ley Sterling of the commission will go in with the party to make trail. The party will charter a launch at Anchor age and go directly up the Susitna to the Yentna river. Two large dredg- ing outfits are now negotiating to go into the field Mir. Grier has an op- tion on 14 miles of ground and believes it to be one of the best low grade propositions in Alaska.

Business at the local cable office has increased nearly 100 per cent over that of previous years, according to reports and is still mounting, which shows that Seward is steadily but slowly growing. There is no reason today why Seward should not be one of the best cities in the Territory, and it is fast approaching that period. An other industry like the one landed Saturday and we will be above worry as to the future.

SEWARD GETS HOME SITE.

Seward is to be congra tulated in be- ing selected as the site for the large orphange known as the Jesse Lee Home. The committee composed of Mayor L. V. Ray, Hugh Dougherty and P. c. McMullen were on the job for month before the committee ar rived in Seward, talking over plans with Rev. R. V. B. Dunlap, local mis- sionary, to whom great credit is also due for the final decision of the ladies composing the commission to make Seward their headquarters. The ladies of Seward also were instrumental in helping the committee reach it's mo- mentous decision, and a general feel ing of satisfaction pervades all citizens today over the accomplishment of a good work we'll done.
 The benefits to Seward in dollars and cents is outweighed by the satis- faction over the decision, in the face of intense opposition by rival com munities, which had everything to of- fer but satisfactory site. Seward s climatic advantages, convenience in transportation and fine water supply outweighed other considerations, and after holding up their decision for two days while additional lands were be- ing surveyed, the committee called the ladies of Seward together Satur- day afternoon and announced that we had won.
 The moving of the Home was dis tinctly Seward proposition from the beginning, as work was started to this end by local citizens and the Gateway some three years ago. Not until it was definitely decided to move was competition encountered, and while the outcome was never in doubt from the first, it caused feeling of uneasi- ness among our citizens.
 The building of the Home here is AI0USnL WILL nluCu uluCu SlRuluCduCS to Seward. It means that with the model buildings and fine grounds in plain sight of all tourists arriving in this port, that other propositions will be induced to locate here. It means the spending of thousands of dollars for local labor, and the further spend ing of large sums for supplies and in- cidentals. It means the addition of corps of cultured, educated ladies from the mission and some 150 children, placing Stewards population we'll above one thousand. It means that a local man will be in charge of the institu. tion, and that Rev. Dunlap and his wife will remain with us for years to come.
 But, to our mind, the best part of the affair was the unanimous, con- certed effort on the part of the local chamber, the council, and every citi- zen to secure the proposition for Sew. ard. Not for years has so much anan- unity of spirit existed in our town.
