HUMAN MIRRORS
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES

WHAT we see in another is the re-
our own natures. Some one has said
that it takes thief to catch thief,
What seemed to be an unsolved prob
lem by the police department of one
of our large cities was quickly and
easily solved when an ex-convict, now
living an honorable life, was set to
work on the task. What remained
unsolved In the hands ofsthose who
had not learned from actual expert
ence was readily apprehended by one
who understood because he had the
experience.
A mirror reflects whatever is set
before it. 1t is powerless to create the
image itself. mirror is not re-
sponsible for what it reflects. The
element of responsibility lies with the
one who sets up the object to be re-
flected. A mirror always tells the
truth. 1t cannot lie.
We are responsible to ourselves for
what we see reflected in other people.
1t is the malice in our own natures
which readily recognizes malice in
some one else. We suspect in another
the weaknesses of our own hearts.
The selfish person detects selfishness,
the dishonest person dishonesty. The
other person is only mirror in whom
we see the fault that is part Of our
own experience. The pure readily
sees the pure. Goodness reflects good
ness, and goodness outshines genius.
The most valuable criticism of our
selves is what criticism leads US to dis
cover in some one else. No other
evaluation of ourselves is quite as cor
rect as this

hand-drawn hemstitching, so much
the better from a fashion standpoint.
Designers are doing some amusing
things with the new gingham-silks by
combining plaids or checks of one col
oring with those of another. A black
and-white check bordered with red
and-white check is stunning. The
same may be said of polka dots,
which, by the way. are In smart fash
ion again. For instance, large navy
and-white polka dot is trimmed with
tiny-dotted tan and white. There is
no end to the novelty which can be
achieved by following out this line Of
thought.

brooks of "gingham-silk" are the
l. smart thing for this summer.
These taffeta weaves, so called be-
cause of their Bingham patterning,
especially exploit checks and plaids.
A Just arrived gingham-silk dress
Is pictured here. Not only its mate

bodice bespeaks the new trend, also
the overskirt effect-which appears in
quite few Of the newer modes. The
stylist also employs solid colors for

move the scraps and measure the fat,
OF which there should be two and one
half tablespoonfuls for each cupful Of
potatoes, cut into fine cubes. Add the
cupfuls Of cold boiled potatoes to the
tat and cook three minutes over hot
fire stirring constantly; then let stand
to brown underneath. Fold the same
as an omelet and serve garnished with
parsley.
When cooking the first choice new
peas, shell them and cook the pods
In water to cover, drain and use the
liquor to cook the peas. The flavor
will be greatly enhanced and the min
eral matter and vitamines which are
valuable food substances, also. Add
a teaspoonful Of sugar to a dish of
peas when cooking If they seem to
lack sweetness; this is a good method
for almost any vegetable such as corn,
carrots or squash.
Green Peas Cooked With Lettuce
Have ready quart Of fresh peas and
head of lettuce. Shred the leaves of
the lettuce coarsely and place over the
peas in boiling water, add one small
onion and a bunch Of parsley, cover
and cook twenty-five minutes, or until
the peas are tender. Remove the
onion and parsley. Cream one-fourth
of cupful Of butter, add one-fourth
cupful Of flour, one teaspoonful of salt
and pepper to season; add the hot
liquor from the peas and when smooth,
add to dish of peas and simmer for six
minutes. Just before serving add
three tablespoonful, of butter land
serve at once.
Peach Sherbet.-Boilf fifteen minutes,
one cupful Of water and two cupfuls

the slightly bouffant skirt. The lace
in rows about the neckline suggests q
yoke effect.
Emphasis is again placed on or
candle for the summer frock. It Ii
thought that this material will repeat
the wonderful vogue it enjoyed some
few seasons ago. Cunning and quaint
are jeune file frocks made Of this
material, with basque bodices and full
skirts in sleeveless style. Some of the
skirts have tiers of ribbon, others are
bordered with lace, In which event
there is apt to be yoke and cap
sleeves Of the lace.
