Guest Meals.

Guest meals at this time Of year can
be unusually interesting, because they
can, II you wish, still carry the holiday
flavor Of the last two weeks. Decora-
lions, in the way of candles and can
dies and flowers, may be red, white and
green, or any combination of these three
colors. If you wish to have favorS,
they may be little calendars or memo
books.
In the Winter q few cans Of fruit
are sure to help out in the preparation
of good guest meals. If you have fruits
that can be made into good salads, you
have a combination salad-dessert al
ways available. All you need is to
be sure that the lettuce bag and the
mayonnaise jar are full.
Pineapple is always the basis for q
good dessert. You can serve It on let
tuce with mayonnaiSe, and accompany
1t with cream cheese and crackers and
coffee, and 1t makes a delicious dessert.
You can serve 1t combined with bananas
and grapefruit and oranges, with ma
yonnaiSe, for Salad-deSSert. You can
combine 1t with nut meats and diced
apple and mayonnaiSe for still another
good salad that may serve for dessert.
Drowned crackers are always good
with fruit salads for dessert. You can
serve the cheeSe-cream cheeSe--in
balls, with crackers Drowned in the
oven. Or you can put little mounds Of
cheese on crackers and toast them until
the cheese is brown and puffy. You
can press pecan nut meat In each side
Of a cream cheese ball, or you can roll
1t in minced parsley.

American Cookery Simpler
Than That of Most Nations

Did It ever occur to you that Amer
lean cookery was very simple? Did it
ever occur to you that to cook in the
American manner requires less time
than almost any other sort Of cookery?
This really must be so, judging from
the verdict Of women who have kept
house in other countries-in China, In
dia, South America, the West Indies, for
instance.
"Didn't you have difficulty in teach
ing native servants how to cook to
suit your" some one asked the young
married woman who had been keeping
house in South America for several
"No, indeed" was the cheerful
answer. "You see, the native cooks have
usually been taught to cook in the
Spanish manner. This requires much
time and patience. Everything is elab-
orately minced and there are all sorts
of combinations Of foods. A vegetable
is seldom served by itself-but several
vegetables are mixed together. You will
find that a cook who can prepare such
dishes usually finds it easy to make out
simple American dishes.
Like Plain Food.
And announcer JnluR, went on LtllS
housewife, "tne French and English and
Russian women have met in different
parts of the world have always had
more trouble in teaching native cooks
to cook to suit their families-because
their own cookery was more difficult
than ours. The man brought up in the
United States usually feels that the
more simply his meats and vegetables
are cooked the better. He is always q
little suspicious of complex combina-
tons. And really the American house.
wife ought to be glad that she isn't eX-
pected to get up some of the queer
combinations that are quite ordinary
dishes among some Europeans"
When you come to think of this, 1t is
all quite true. Take American corn. To
the average American the best and
only way to cook it is by the simplest
sort of boiling. Green peas, too, are
usually preferred simply boiled and
served with a little butter and salt.
The most thoroughly American Of
dishes usually take the least room in
the recipe book. When you come to a
recipe that covers Q page or two you
may BE- sure that 1t is Of European
origin.

The rabbits at the top are of brass

Beauty for the Hands.

No part Of the body is so quick to
show the lack of attention as the
hands. But, fortunately they respond
quickly TO treatment, so If milady gives
her hands the care they deserve, re-
suits will not be long in coming.
It is well to keep in mind that when
1t comes to keeping secrets hands are
not at all discreet. If they are neglect
ed, they shout it to every one who so
hands are rough and red, there are
hard corners about the nails and the
fingers are diScolored. Hands, too, love
to tell the age of their owner, and
there are those who claim that milady's
youthful complexion, well kept hair,
ETC., cannot deceive them as to her age,
for the hands viii tell them the truth
That being the case, it would be well
for milady to insist on keeping her
hands youthful. The best way to in
sure this is for the young woman who
has reached her late twenties to begin
using nouriShing creams on them. Co
Goa butter or other tissue food is good
for this purpose. After applying the
food, massage the hands well. If this
treatment is given daily. the hands will
be pretty sure to be preserved in such
a way that even the most astute may
be somewhat deceived when they try
to compute the years from the appear
ance Of the hands.
Many a housewife has made the re-
mark when going to a social function:
I'D like to go, If I could leave my
hands at home, but housekeeping and
pretty hands simply do not belong to-
gether." AS q matter of fact, If she
will give them the right care, there is
no reason why the housewife cannot
have lovely hands. Those who have
learned m IIgn OlOvag xuhaY1 V1arfOr,,, IN ~

may seem awkward at first, but, like
nearly everything else, 1t can become a

Flight of Ideas.

II you sit near a window where bright
sunlight falls between the curtains, you
may discover thousands of dust par
ticles floating about as if they were try
ing to find their affinitieS. In a per-
fectly objective way they behave very
much as separated families, getting
together at country fair preparatory
to going home.
One difference only may be observed.
The dust particles appear to arrange
case OF the families on the fair grounds,
reason or purpose seems to be back of
their getting together.
This distinction, however, cannot ac-
tually be made. There is some cause
back OF all the arrangement and rear

call the arrangement accidental for lack
or better explanation. But we will
hand that all over to the physicist, who

perform the almost impossible feat of
studying these fancies they will appear
TO you as nothing but accidental ar

But these fancies or arrangements of
ideas all have sufficient reasons for
being what they are from moment to

So we go to the psychologist and ask

country that strong race that weathered
the almost impossible conditions of our
great Middle West and settled it for
the good of the Nation. 1t took a race
like that to master Wisconsin and North
