AND THEIR CHILDREN.

One mother says:
When little Grace was convalescing
from q rather severe illness tried so
hard to get her to take the nourishing
foods which the doctor had assured me
were necessary for her quick and COM
Portable recovery. But coaxing her to
eat the dishes 1 had prepared had lit
tie or no effect, so I tried a different
method. got out my daintiest china,
with odd pieces rarely used. The little
Japanese cup with three tiny feet is
just right for soft-boiled egg. The
mayonnaise bowl is a new receptacle
for her cereal, the colored tumbler with
a glass slipper for her milk, and numer-
Gus other little devices have all played
a part in the new scheme.
These dainty dishes, filled with
tempting food and carried to Grace on
a snowy tray with two or three pansies
in a tooth-pick holder, so attracted
Grace that she was eager to eat all
that had prepared for her.

Easter Eggs Have Another
Appearance.

BY FLORENCE La GANKE.

The day after Easter found Nancy
with a half dozen or so hard-cooked
eggs left over from the children's egg
hunting game. She used them in a
dish she concocted from leftovers in
the refrigerator.
Had she not had the hard-cooked
Eggs on hand she would have pre-
pared some by letting the eggs simmer
in near boiling water for 40 minutes.
This method of cooking gives a more
digestible egg than the one cooked in
rapidly-boiling water After eggs are
cooked they are shelled.

Must Appear Natural.

The first requisite for any girl or
woman who wishes to make the most
of her beauty is to know her own
individual type. The delicately colored
pink-and-white blonde may admire her
more vivid, dark-haired sister and so
may foolishly try to initiate her beauty.
The result is often comic. Rouge suited
to the vivacious brunette is quite sure

They can't possibly do you any harm;
