to the nice things which she know
would be said about her 2-year-old
Peter. Her husband had long since been
acknowledged one of the biggest gains
in the Lee family. In fact, some of the
family said he was fine enough to have
been born a Lee instead of Page.
Peter wondered what his family in
England with traditions and ancestry,
its pride in the folks who had borne the
Page name would think of the Lee COM
ment. But he was fond of them all,
and they adored him.

Scrubbins brushes should be
well rinsed after they are used,

dry.
When making sash curtains,
make the hens the same at top

them either end up.
A nice way to darn table linen

where good butter is unavailable, pro-

Usually a pound of choice package
bacon, ready sliced, goes farther than
a pound Of uncut bacon, because 1t Is
difficult to cut it at home as thin as
it can be cut by machinery at the
packing houses.
II YOU must cut your own bacon be
sure that your knife is very sharp. The
bacon should be taken from the re-

Do not start frying bacon until you

Bacon will not fry itself, but must be

cubes, and season with salt and pepper.
Beat two eggs slightly and pour them
over the mixture in the pan. Cook
until the eggs are set and then fold like
an omelet.
Bacon and Sweet Potatoes.-The po-
tatoes should first be cooked and
peeled and cut in two lengthwise. Now
have ready as many slices Of bacon as
you have potato halves. Put the bacon
and potatoes together into a frying pan
or small dripping pan, and place in the
oven, leaving them in until the bacon
is done and the potatoes are slightly

dishes. Scrambled eggs may be made

There are only two women IN
a mans life who ever really
stir his imagination-his Might
have-been" and his "Going~to-
be-"
Nothing so confirms a cynic
in his contemptuous opinion of
woman's mental inferiority AS
the spectacle of a presumably
sane, intelligent girl calmly 60
ing back to corsets and culti-
waiting the new waistline.
A woman can hang her il
luSionS around a man who
makes her suffer, and even
around one who makes her
angry-but never around one
who makes her want to laugh.
A long engagement is an en-
durance test, in which the man
waits for the girl to give up
hope, and the girl waits for the
man to give up struggling.
Many a girl, like a persistent
housefly, gets "sWatted," just
for hanging around and boring
a man with too much personal
attention.

Perhaps your fear of the
dark comes from reading about
a fairy tale of the black woods
or a story you were told about
the big bear that roams in the
dark to devour bad little boys
and girls.
And maybe your fears are
pure exaggeration, after all,
not really warranted if you
reason them out calmly.
Think calmly about these
dread prospects, and more
likely than not you will see
how absurd it all is, how
grossly you have let your i'm
agination run riot and made
mountains out of mole hills.
Yes, take your fears in hand
fearleSSly!
Don't run. Face about and
fight back.
If you analyZe your behavior
you will be surprised and may
even laugh at what a trivial
experience in the past is re-
sponsible, what foolish little
fancy has been your undoing.
Every one can Danish fear
by mis- newer way of looking
at the problem.
Remember that in trying to
forget it is like sinking
depth bomb that may explode
any minute despite your ina
bility to see 1t.
Remember also that the
more you run away the worse
your fears become.
Stop running. Practice quiet,
honest introSpection.
Look your fears squarely in
the face and thereby take the
hoodoo out of them.
Nothing makes towards of
us all so readily as fear.
Nothing undermines our
peace of mind and even health
as fear.

Neptune's Discovery
By Archibald Henderson

bad suspected it to be other
than a star.
Had any astronomers ever
seen it? Oh, yes-Lalande had
seen it as far back as 1895, and
Lamont had observed it in the
years 1845 and 1846.
On May 8 and May. 10. 1795,
as Lalande'S notes showed, he
had observed the planet-but
did not recognize it as such.
Had he done so, the discovery
at that time would have de-
prived the world of lone Of the
most remarkable mathematical
achievements ever recorded in
the annals Of astronomy"
The actual discovery which
put astronomers on the track
of a new planet was the dis
crepancy found by Sir George
Airy, the Astronomer Royal of
England, between his own OBJ
ServationS of Uranus and the
celestial time tables of other
astronomers.
A S Mary Proctor says, in her
"A Romance Of the Planets:
"Conjectures were made with
regard to the possible cause
OF the delay, some attributing
1t to the action of a large
comet swaying Uranus out of
its course, while others sus-
pected the existence Of q large
satellite revolving about the
planet, but both views were
dismissed as having no scien-
tific value.
Boulevard, a noted mathe-
matician. threw out the hint
that the irregularities were
caused by an unseen perturb,
ing body, and the conviction
grew that there must be an
other planet beyond Uranus"
This planet, which was
throwing Uranus out of its
track by the amount Of the
distance from the moon to the
earth, about 238,840 miles, was
brilli9 9ntly discovered by Ed-
ans and lie Verrier. This was

i MILESTONE FOR DULL TIMES = By Herbert Kaufman

THE best milestone for dull
times is building con-
u Struction. Nothing else
so quickly restores the keen
edge of confidence.
Which largely accounts for
the loud cheers of stock quota
tionS at word that eleven bill
lion dollars will shortly put on
overallS, grab shovels and tool
kits, and begin to lay founda-
tionS, roads, rails, conduitS, and
bets that investment can earn
higher wages with a car
penter's hammer than with a
coupon-clipper.
Public works and private pro-
jectS for 1880 have contracted
to distribute eleven thousand
millions between manufacture,
transportation and labor.
And that's the kind of money
that passes from pocket to
pocket until practically every
class in the community gets a
piece OF 1t.
CONSTRUCTION is a creator,
~ not a consumer, of ma
tional wealths. Therein it
differs from extravaganza and
diversion and fashion-three
other primary stimulators of
prosperity, which leave moth
ing on the plate after they've
satisfied their generous appe-
titeS.
Extravaganza, amusement and
fashion sustain occupation, but
destroy its yields in the pro-
cess of enjoying them.
Construction not only pre-
serves, but increases the orig
inal value of the country's
cheap and abundant natural
assets.
1t transforms clay to bricks,
Stag to cement. ores to girders
and pipes and wires-clears
weed-patches and ash heaps
from vacant land, and leaves
incomes and taxes flouriShing
on the sites.

The construction dollar is a
trans-continental traveler-the
busiest dollar on earth. Its six
pences are the nimbleSt in the
land. They're the Boy Scouts
of currency, fore yer doing a
good turn somewhere.
TNHEY skip no territories or
- economic groups. They
spread industrial and CONNER
cial action from Gulf to Lakes.
Construction dollars are in
destructible dollars, because
they invariably leave perman-
encies behind. The dollars that
fill gas-tankS, teacupS, and cos
metic jars disappear in them.
The dollars wrought into cars
and tires and apparel quickly
land on junk-heapS.
But skyscraperS and hotels,
apartment houses and power
stations, are just so many stacks
of greenbackS-magic green
backs, because every penny in
vested in their erection has
been spent and still retains its
full power of exchange.
Once prosperity means buSi-
ness she draws blueprints. drags

Acid Tests
THERE Is nothing like one
l. down-payment on a smart
motor-car to fill the average
man or woman with a painful
superiority complex.
No girl grows really enthusi-
astic about the spring moon
light, unless there is something
In 1t besides poetic solitude.
It may be true that modest,
serious, intelligent girls are
vastly in the minority, these
days: but there are more than
enough of them to go round
among the men who have the
common sense to pick that kind
for a wife.
A bachelor may be capable
Of any amount of love-but,
usually, Of only a little at a
time for each woman.
The one thing, without which
no partnership, no organiza-
ton and, above ALL, no mar
riage can keep on running, is
cooperation.
