HOW 1T STARTED
"Insult to Injury"
BY JEAN NEWTON.

Little do we realize when we use
this expression that we are indulging
in a bit of wisdom. Uhknowingiy we
are alluding to the classic Of the clas-
sizes, an old Latin fable quoted by
Phaedrus from the more ancient ver-
sion of Aesop.
1t is a fable about a bald-headed
man, and, as usual. the bald-headed
man is at a disadvantage. In this case
it is a mere fly that takes advantage
of him.
Well, the bald-headed man was bit
ten on the head by a fly, and when he
attempted in retaliation to smite the
insect he succeeded only in giving
himself a vigorous slap on his bald
pate. Whereupon. according to Aesop,
the fly said. jeeringly: "You want to
kill me for a touch-what will you do
to yourself now that you have added
insult to injury?''

Spanish Veal Balls.

Remove the skin. bone. and waste
from enough veal to yield one pound
and half. Two pounds of veal stock
will give this quantity, and chop the
veal with one-fourth pound of fat
salt pork or bacon. Rub over an
earthen mixing bowl with crushed
Glove of garlic. put in the chopped
meat, one cupful of fine bread crumbs
from the center Of a stale loaf. two un-
beaten eggs. a teaspoonful of salt, a
dash each of paprika and celery salt.
a level teaspoonful of sugar, and a
little finely chopped parsley. Mix the
whole together thoroughly, then form
into balls. Roll these In -four to coat
them lightly, then set into frying
basket and plunge into a kettle Of hot
fat. Let cook about minutes, just
long enough to coagulate the outside
and keep the balls In shape. Drain on
soft paper. Have ready. very hot, half
a can of tomatoes, thickened with a
level tablespoonful of flour mixed with
half q cupful of cold water. Add a
seasoning Of celery salt and paprika,
then drop in the balls, one by one,
cover, and let simmer 20 minutes.
Serve in the tomatoes poured onto a
platter. with a sprig of parsley on the
ton Of each ball.

Time as Valuable as Tangible Things
By LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER.

Sports are recognized as essential

relaxation from the pressure of busi-
ness or the round of duties. Games

mental reaction from the same stress

ton, into scenes of beauty and reni-
ism. Art and music stimulate higher
ideals, without which life would he
bleak and bare. True spiritual reii-
gion feeds the soul and helps human
ity to guide its barks through haz.
ardous seas into placid waters.
Well Spent.
And so we could go through long
category of occupations that do not
concern the actual keeping of the
body alive and yet which are genuine
essentials to living. Spending time I'm
in them is far from wasted. 1t Is
put to good purpose. 1t enables peo-
pie to work better and accomplish
more.
/ heard an art critic Of rare ability
say lately that 10 hours in studying
The subject to be painted and two

canvases than 10 hours of painting
and two of meditation about how to
do il. So we find constructive think
ing saves time.
Unfinished Work.
Many home makers would be sur
prised to realize how much time they
waste in starting pieces or work ana
never finishing them. Until task is
completed, the time spent doing it is
fruitless A peep into the sewing
drawer or closet. a glimpse or the

Starting things is but the first step.
though the most important one, to-
ward the completion of work. Let us
not waste more time In laying aside
work incompleted. II II is great
task. keep 1t alive by doing a little
now and then until ultimately the
time put into ii will be time well
spent.
Waste Is Cramping.
Another matter of waste of things
that is not fully appreciated is in
helping oneself TO more than can he
eaten with a relish. During the war
il was considered almost crime 10
leave food uneaten on ones plate.
Today we forget this avenue of waste
more than we should. 1t is a. small
item in itself at any one meal. but
the aggregate of waste may be great
in a month or even week
might just as well have money so
wasted to put into other things. We
are continually cramping our lives
by wasting things and by wasting
time. instead of using both to advan.
tage for our own betterment and hap
piness.

BEAUTY CHATS
A Fne-Grained Skin.

There are at least 500 ways Of max
ing the skin fine grained, and prob
ably 100 OF this number would suit
your special type OF complexion. It's
as we'll to know OF number OF
methods, for you cannot always treat
the skin the same way: in dry wealth
er you must use a little oil, and in
cold weather the treatment is not
the same as in hot; you need fewer
astringents, for one thing.
So here's just one other suggestion
for making the skin fine. 1t is to use
powdered oatmeal.
But the oatmeal from a druggist.
You can buy quite a large tin for
25 cents to so cents, scented or other
wise. Wash the face with quite warm
water and no soap, keeping the warm
yet wet, waShcloth over the skin long
enough to open the pores slightly
about one minute.
Pour a little powder into the palm
Of one hand, and put with it just
enough water to make It n paste; a
few drops will do. Rub this into the
face and rub and rub for perhaps
another minute. The skin absorbs the
moisture, the oatmeal dries and event
uaily rubs off. But do not carry the
treatment this far: after a minute
wash of the paste with warm water.
Wash it off thoroughly, and dry the
skin.
That's all there is to it. But the
oatmeal is as cleansing as soap; more
SO. for it makes the skin finer, very
soft to touch. and very nice to look
at. Fine blackheads will disappear as
il by magic, big ones will yield, in
time, to the efficient cleansing this
oatmeal gives. 1t Is, besides, slightly
