FOOD PROBLEMS
In the Refrigerator.
BY SALLY MONROE.

1t is really very important to put food
away properly in the refrigerator. The
food keeps better If it is quickly and
properly put away, and the refriger-
ator itself Is in better shape if the
doors are opened but seldom and the
food is not spilled about.
To begin with, after a meal don't
open the refrigerator door for each
dish Of food. Get all the food ready
in the proper receptacles, and place
them all on top of the refrigerator or
When all are ready, open the refriger-
ator once and put them all away.
Special glass containers for food
come for the small refrigerator and
they are really desirable for use in
any refrigerator. There are several
glass Enthusiastically four-fltted to-
gether, one on top of the other. A
different sort of food can be placed
in each section, and yet all together
take only the ground space of one
dish.
wide mouthed glass jars, with screw
or cap tops, are also good food con-
tanners. Such things as mayonnaise
and custard always ought to be kept
covered, and these jars are good for
the purpose.
Frying fat can be used more than
once. Immediately after using it 1t
should be strained into a jar of some
sort, covered, and kept in the refriger-
ator until the next using. Treated in
this way it will not become rancid for
a long time and may be used over and
over.
Butter should be kept covered, and
so should cheese-and most especially
they should not be kept under the same
cover.
Meat, on arriving from the butcher,
should be placed in glass or crockery
dish and put In the refrigerator.

Insurgent Husband

The husbands place is in the home,
his duty is quite clear, but he has rank
ling in his dome strange dreams of
career He Is not satisfied to wear his
apron clean and gray, it does not please
him to prepare the three meals every
day. He does not like to sweep and
dust and keep the curtains clean, he
views his labors with disgust and
thinks them low and mean. With
frowning brow he makes the bed and
sweeps the kitchen floor, and sees the
cat and kitten fed, outside the cellar
door So when the wife comes home
at night from labors in the mart, her
husbands face is such a sight 1t nearly
breaks her heart. 1t is a mask of dis
content, not CHEEKY, kind and coy; he
has a crouch and he seems bent on
killing all her joy. Thus foolish hus-
bands often feel they are downtrodden
guys, when they are frying pork or
veal, or making pumpkin pies. And
wives come home distraught and tired
from their commercial game. and miss
the peace they have desired, which
surely is a shame. They fain would
see their husbands come to greet them
at the gate, nor look indignant, cold or
glum. as though consumed by hate.
Bread-winning is grievouS task, and
when the day is done the hard-worked
wives would gladly bask in love that's
fairly won. But husbands have vain
desire for life in larger phase; they'd
sing soprano in choir. or star in up
lift plays. They are not satisfied to do
the work that suits them best, to cook
the goulash and the stew, and swat the
household pest. And SO our home life
fades away, it is not what it was: and
we can't go SO far astray when We
would learn the cause.

A WASHINGTON DAYBOOK
BY HERBERT PLUMMER.

Carolina, who entered the Senate In
1901: Senators Overman, a Democrat
from the same State, and Smoot of
Utah, Republican. who took their
seats in 1908. and Senator Borah. Re-
publican, of Idaho, who entered the
Senate in 1907.
These Senator'S were forced to put up
with many Inconvenience unknown
now. For example, there were only a
half dozen telephones in the Maltby,
There was booth on the main corri-'
dor of each floor, and if a Senator was
called or wished to use the phone he
had to leave his Office to do so.
In the Senate Once Building now
there are some 500 telephones.
But perhaps the greatest inconven-
fence was that they had to brave all
sorts OF weather to answer roll calls.
Through rain and snow, heat and cold,
they were forced to make their way to
and from the Capitol up the hill.
Now, In bad weather, they are rapidly
whisked through subway. which con-
meets the Capitol and their Offices, in
railway car.
AS an illustration Of the difference
between now and those days, am re-
minded of an experience of Senator
Perkins of California.
On the occasion of Washingtons
birthday the Senator was chosen 70
read Washington's Farewell Address.
Unknown to him, the Senate had con-
vened an hour earlier that day.
A page was dispatched to the Maltby
to find Senator Perkins. He located
him in his Office, feet propped on q
desk. familiarizing himself with what
he was to read. When told that the
Senate awaited him he ran all the way
to the Capitol.
But the ascent of the hill was too
much Senators had to wait another 80
minutes until Perkins could catch his
breath.

BEAUTY CHATS BY EDNA KENT FORBES

are to be beige, brown or gray.
If you have $50 to spend on q suit
and gloves, spend $22.50 on the suit
and $3.50 on the gloves. If you have
$50 to spend. make it $40 on the suit
and $40 on the gloves. This does sound
like lot, but shabby gloves must be
thrown away, gloves must always be
clean, and you cannot buy cheap gloves
and economic.
You can economic on the cleaning,
by buying washable gloves-suede or
chamoiS. But you cannot get cat least,
never have been able to find) a salts
factory pair Of washable gloves for less
than $3.50. The color Is apt to streak
even so, and they are not really easy to
wash until they are channels color.
Channels gloves are very easy to wash,
and cheaper to buy; but these are so
soft they tear at the seams unless of
very good quality.
You need two pairs Of everyday
gloves, washable or otherwise, and you
should really have three. They can be
dark or light, as you wish, but are
incest If about the shade Of your stock
ings. You should have an extra nice
light pair, for best, and for your light
er dresses. If you go out much in the
evening, you do not need white gloves,
but long pinky-beige ones, of the soft
est suede.
Large hands look best with loose
wrist pull-on gloves; If large and well
shaped, the gloves can be drawn in with
strap. Gloves should never have
fancy tops. The latest craze in Paris
Is long black gloves for daytime, with
short sleeve dresses having just q touch
of black on them. Also for fur cuffs
on street gloves, the fur matching the
fur coat collar.

Books and Sermons.

It was a wise man who said there
are sermons in stones and books in run
ming brooks. And now another man
perhaps less wise-Says that we women,
too, are like books, intriguing in our
charm and all that sort of thing.
He says there are sermons in us, and
that, like some books, We produce happy
endingS for the men who turn our
pages, reading as they keep step with
the march of mutual experiences The
young man comments on us as follows:
Meeting a young woman for the first
time Is like picking up new book II
We men read far enough in any book
the chances are we will find something,
however little, that is good and inter-
esting. But not all Of us are capable of
covering the barren stretches between
cover and cover.
1T is the same with you women.
You should be more interesting than
any book-even classic. You are real
living things, but that is your chief
fault.
Absolute perfection cannot be at
tanned in human beings. On the other
hand, it can at least be Appropriated
in books.
And yet some of these great books,
the greatest of all books, have unhappy
endings. Still they stimulate emotion,
excite the mind in storm of thought
memories something akin to a sermon. -
There is, of course, a great market
for good books.
From what gather from men sus-
pect there is a curious demand. not so
much for great women, but for good
and attractive women.
In both literature and life there are
dime novelS-and the fact of the matter
is that men incline more strongly to-
ward dime novels, either in youth or
maturity.
Apparently men insist on blood and
thunder. Because we do not provide it,
they go on literary excursions to world
of unrealitieS.
do not believe a comparison of
women and dime novels is by any means
odious Men like heroines in life as we'll
as in books. Perhaps that is why they
patronize so persistently in both fields.
Our earthly selves throw off definite
images and in dime novels these images
are illuminated by brilliant lights, which
bring us out into a clearer relief against
the imaginations of men.

MILADY BEAUTIFUL
BY LOIS LEEDS.

The appearance of numerous small
pimples on the upper arms and Shout
ders Is beauty blemish which is an
noying to many girls. Perhaps the most
common cause of this blemish is care
lesSnesS in the matter of cleaning. and
a change in these methods Is pretty sure
to effect cure.
At night the parts affected should
be scrubbed thoroughly with soap and
warm water Notice that say scrub
bed" for mere washing will not be
sufficient. Use a flesh or bath brush
with fairly stiff bristles and rub the
warm water. ANY pure mild soap may
be used
If the skin is inclined to be parti-
cularly oily and coarse, it is good plan
to give it an alcohol rub after the scrub
bling, cleansing and rinsing. If the
skin is especially dry. rub it with a little
oil of benne or cold cream. If the
cleansing methods have been too mild
previously, it is quite likely that the
vigorous scrubbing will result in little
soreness, and in this case apply mild
antiseptic such as boric acid solution
or one may apply a mild astringent
made of equal parts of witch-hazel,
rosewater and glycerin. In addition to

So much for the nightly cleansing.
1t is necessary to give the skin married
with goose pimples, blackheads or pim-
Piles some special treatment in the
morning also. There is nothing better
for such skin than the stimulating
effect of a tepid or cold shower. Be-
fore taking the shower 1t Is q good plan
to rub the skin into a glow with a
coarse towel and go through few set
ting-up exercises.
After the shower repeat the rubbing
with dry, clean Turkish towel. Many
find that rubbing the body with table
salt once or twice a week does wonders
toward toning up sluggish skin and
removing the hard specks or goose

Once a penniless drifter :. {.

VOU know him as one of Hollywood's
i most famous stars. Wealthy, talented,
the idol of millions. Yet it seems only
yesterday that he was penniless drifter,
the black>sheep of fine family.
Bitter, cynical, unhappy-he had drifted
into Hollywood with neither training nor
ambition. He believed in nothing, not even
himself. He wanted only to make little
money-and then push on to new sur
roundings and new adventures.
Everything he attempted was failure.
Before the age of twenty-one he had been
husband, a father, a divorced man. Now,
in Hollywood, he was destined to find
his last and greatest adventure.
Encouragement from Bebe Daniels
He would have quit after his first attempt
at acting if Bebe Daniels had not en-
couraged him.
It's hard at first" she told him. You'll
do better next time"
And he did! One small bit. led to
another. Women throughout the country
became aware of fascinating newcomer
to the screen. They watched him as he
played opposite Clara Bow, Mary Brian,
Nancy Carroll, Fay Wray. Who is he!
Where does he come from? Publicity men
gave them the sugar-coated.
