istence, but they are there, all the
same, for all of us. And now and
then they rise to the surface under
some sudden stimulus. These sudden
appearances we call intuition. They
are, in reality, a sort Of racial remem.
bering.
We know so little about this part
of our mind, that we are surprised
and impressed when it exhibits itself.
We think of it as something super
natural. It's nothing of the sort. It's
as natural as our toe nails and as
much part of our primitive endow-
inent.
Yes, we do have instinct, but none
of it is very reliable and it isn't
peculiar to either sex. Men have it
just as much as women. BUT THEY
DON'T DARE USE 1T. The mar
world is organized and labelled. The
rules are all laid out. There's small
place for lunches" in those rules
and the man who tries to work by
them is apt to get lively razz.
Nevertheless because man is still part
savage and part child he still feels q
sneaking awe and admiration for that
mysterious power within himself. and
is impressed when someone else dis
plays it.
Women on the other hand. arc
bound by no such inhibition. There
are. no organization rules TO cramp
their style and il they want to boast
of their intuition no one will say
them nay. So they do boast, and
men inwardly believe and the theory
of Feminine Intuition" goes merrily
on its way.
It's all the bunk. The average
feminine brain is of exactly the same
caliber and grade as the average
masculine brain-no finer. no coarser.
no keener, no duller. We all still
scoot back into our caves when we're
frightened or surprised. Which fact
won't hurt US if we recognize it. But
it will raise cain if we try to call it
Intuition" and introduce it into the
business.

WhippedCream
Sandwiches
By Hannah Wing

OF all the sweet sandwiches that
grace the tea table on special occasions
those made with whipped cream are
especially elegant. They are dainty
as well as rich. They may be varied
to give Filings of different colors,
flavors and makeup. Once the cream
is whipped the sandwiches are very
simple to make and they have the
added advantage of making a little
cream go a long way.
For whipped cream sandwiches the
bread must be cut very thin and both
slices of the sandwich must be butter
cred. so that the cream cannot soak
into the bread. The cream sandwich
must be dainty as well as delicious.
One of the simplest suggestions is
the cream and nut combination. This
may be favored with almond and va
nilla-a drop or two of each-with o
cup of whipped cream sweetened with
one-fourth cup of powdered sugar.
Chopped almonds nay be used and the
cream left unlimited or pistachio nuts
may be used and the cream tinted q
delicate green.
Chopped candied fruit may be added
TO n part of the cream for variation
or fruit alone may be used instead of
the nuts. Steamed prunes drained OF
all excess moisture and rubbed through
sieve make fine sandwich. A cup
of fairly dry prune pulp added to a
half cup of whipped cream sweeten-
ed bit will make enough sweet sand
witches for any at home afternoon.
Cocoa used in the proportion of two
spoonsful of cocoa to three of sugar
makes a kind of sandwich which re-
sembles a reversed Eskimo pie. If one
uses a cupful of whipped cream, two
tablespoonsful of rich dark cocoa and
three tablespoonsful of powdered sugar
they will have the desired result.
Any Of the dried fruits used in max,
ing tutti-frutti may be used with
whipped cream. The more fruit, the
less cream, of course: so, if one uses
cupful of chopped dates, raisins, figs
and nuts combined, and moistens them
slightly with orange juice. one will
only need a half a cupful Of whipped
cream very slightly sweetened.
For a children's party, any stick
candy-cinnamon orange, lemon-put
through a food chopper and added to
whipped cream makes a fair treat.
About four sticks to a cupful of cream
will do the trick, although one must
be guided by the size of the sticks.
A sort of fruit salad sandwich COM
bination that is altogether heavenly
may be served on single slices Of but
tered brown nut bread. For this con-
coction, add chopped white seeded
grapes. pears, dates and mashmallows.
or any other fruit combination thar
occurs to you, to the whipped cream.

LISTEN, WORLD!
BY ELSIE ROBINSON
Feminine Intuition

Julia wants me to write an article
on Feminine Intuition. No, Julia
isn't thirsting for literary enlighten-
ment. She wants to use it as a club
over Sam.
Sam and Julia have been married
for eleven years. There are no chill
dren, 50 Julia has a lot of time on
her hands. Sans in the real estate
business and Julia wants to be in it
too. But Sam doesn't see it. She
points out TO Sam what a wonderful
help she'd be. Sam grunts. Other
women help their husbands. If they
can learn to help their husbands in
business, why can't she? Does he
think she hasn't as much brains as
other women? Sam grunts some
more. Or maybe he's afraid if she
goes down to the office she'll find
out something he's trying to hide :
Sam doesn't even bother to grunt.
That lines too old to make him rise.
Then Julia springs her trump

her INTUITION. No man has. Why,
if men would only listen to their
wives they'd be saved hundreds and
millions of dollars. For instance, she

he can laugh if he wants, but in,

he'd only let her come down to the
office for just a couple of hours every
day
But Sam still doesn't want any
Feminine Intuition missing up his
business. And now Julia has sent
me an S. o. s. begging me to rally
around and save the day by few
sprlghtly remarks that will make
Samuel look like thirty cents.
I'll rally round, old dear, but I'm
afraid Sans going to get the best
of it.
FOR DO NOT BELIEVE IN
FEMININE INTUITION.

Then isn't there any such thing as

no more confined to the feminine sex

Meditations Of
a Wife
Seek the Woman.
By Helen Rowland

Seek the Woman.
Most famous men are remembered
longer for their love affairs and their
follies than for their achievements.
This is a sentimental old world,
and it thinks lot more Of its great
lovers than of its great leaders and
generals.
Just look at Solomon, for instance.
Solomon, the poet, the philosopher,
the statesman-Solomon, the glorious
remembered today, only as the
worlds greatest marrying mani"
Henry VIII was one Of England's
greatest lawmakers and mightiest
rulers; but who ever thinks of him,
now, except as the worlds greatest
ex-husband? The man with the di-
vorce-complex!
Bluebeard was the most skilful and
eminent physician of his time-yet his
fame was achieved as the worlds
greatest widower-the most brilliant
example of the peterborough,
theory. y
Marc Antony shone as a soldier
and an orator-but, he is remembered
chiefly as the worlds greatest lover.
Byron Is no longer quoted, and his
poetry is almost forgotten but his
love-letters still make good reading,
and his fame as the Rudolph Valen-
aS a. e sstsn ,,-l,r,,,aI
Nobody remembers all the wise kings
of France, who were called Louis
but that brilliant Louis who was
known as the lover of many ladies
still lives in the popular fancy.
Who would remember Potiphar, or
Lot either, if it were not for their
WIVES, And lots Of people who have
forgotten that Samson pulled down the
temple, still remember that Delilah
bobbed his hair.
Even Adam got most of his fame
through Ewes little intrigue with the
Serpent and her weakness for apple
sauce.
oh yes, it is the women in a mans
life, who do most to keep his fame
and his memory. green
Nobody cares how many battles a
man won or lost-it's how many wo-
men he won or lost, that matters to
us. 1t is lovers and husbands and
sheiks and Lotharios, that men are
most interesting to the world-not as
statesmen or poets or soldiers.
