Children s
 reats For
 Easter Day

When he Easter bunny comes this year perhaps hc'll delight the children with something quite new in Easter styles, particularly if he has 'mothcr' cooperating with him in the kitchen.
 Weeks before Easter every GEE that is used for cooking is carefully cracked and an opening made at the small end. The contents are then shaken out through tho hole and the eGg shell carefully rinsed and dried, These shells can be used for many purposes. such as nolds for desserts, containers for candy, or Easter gifts or quaintly styled Faster eggs An "cgEs-tremely' clever idea for GEES prepared for the annual egg hunt is to write the childrens names lon the eggs. Even tiny persons un- 'able to read experience quite thrill to find their very own egg express iy prepared for them by tho Easter bunny.
 Egg Names
 The trick of writing on eggs is simple. First choose white eggs. and fardboil them as usual. Then dye the,h in the ordinary comm crcial dyes. using light colors. And now comes the trick. Write the name on the cgg with stub pen dipped in melted wax or paratfine. When the wax bardens, dip egg into dark colored dye which has been cooled, \ hot dye would melt the wax. The name finally appears in the color the GEE was first dipped in, while the egg itself is the color of the last dye.
 The baskets provided for the small scarchors in which to carry their eggs should be reasonably strong. It's d tragedy to have the handle pull out of ones basket, into i)l-fa,ed 'Humpty pumpties."
 When eggs are hidden through the rooms of the house. paper nests are effective and not nn'iJy.
 Candy in Eggs
 One of the most fascinating fash ions in Easter eggs is that of filling an empty egg shell with tiny candy eggs for jelly beans. The shell is carefully dipped into dye, taking care that no dye gets inside the shell. After thorough drying, they are filled with the candy. The uncolored end is covered with gay paper of con- trasting color. pasted firmly over the hole 10 keep the candle. in. The ends of the paper are frinsed.
 An Easter Dessert
 A most attractive Easter dessert IS made by filling the empty egg shells with different colored gela- tines Liquid gelatine, colored and favored as you please. is poured through the opening in the small end of the shell. A small funnel made of stiff paper is an aid in pouring the gelatine into the shell. Let the gelatine stand at least eight hours to become firm and Sery cold.
 When ready to serve, dip each egg into hot water. This melts the gelatine on the shell. Then crack shell in many places and remove. Pile the cggs on a chilled serving dish and serve with whipped cream. Variegatcd eggs" can be made by using two or three different flayors and coiors of gelatine in one shell If you fill an GEE shell with water pour it out and carefully measure, 50 you will have a definite idea of ho,.. y,,,t.J rclafino 1o urenarp for tho number of eggs you want to fill.

just what Is self-preservation?
Does it only mean preserving

something that will persist when

For, no matter how she suffers,
she does il In imported clothes
and the latest Paris hats-~anu no

And, whatever she does. it Is al.
WAYS something exciting even If
It's only shooting somebody. It is
never counting the linen for the
Monday laundry or making out
the grocery list or cleaning out
the refrigerator or finding red apts
in the butter.
And, whatever her husband may
be-a hoursebresker or a prize
fighter or even.a popular dancing
man-he is never HUNGRY!
He never accuses her of hiding
his things, or. leaves the soap on
the bathroom floor. Or reads the
''funnies" aloud TO her. or is fussy
about the way she pinches the
tooth,pa ste, or acts as though he
suspected she had PRAYED for
rain on Sunday, just to spoil his
golf.
And, even though he may have
been shipwrecked on desert
island, without a safety-razor for
weeks, he is always freshly shaven
and never needs a haircut.
His front hair is always neatly
waved and pomaded and never
standing up in tufts, his nose
never peels in the sun, and he
hasn't any bald-spot on which he
lubs a tonic.
He always says good.by, tend
erly and fondly, instead OF just
shouting at her as he slams the
front door.
And when he returns, after
separation, he rushes in and
clasps her in his arms as though
it had seemed like a million years,
instead of just throwing down his
fishing tackle. pecking her on the
cheek. and remarkin2. Gee. It's

He never argues with the waiter
