Handwriting
What 1t May Reveal.
BY MILDRED MOCKABEE.

THIS writing is interesting because
of its size. This type of very
large writing is frequently used
Il by an executive. The writer
seems accustomed to direct both
her own life and that of others. We
should expect to find it tactful and
diplomatic direction, as she seems a
pleasant, charming person. She has
perhaps had a great deal of experience
in public life, meeting many people and
possibly helping to influence their
deStinies.
She appears to have the qualifications
for a successful speaker and leader
She may be interested in club work,
surely proving a competent worker. She
would not care to join any organization
for its purely social side. The long ~"
loop suggests an essentially practical
person. She would perhaps be interested
in working for some type of civic or
community project. She would perhaps
be DESTROYS of acquiring civic improve
ments, such as libraries, Fairgrounds
and gardens.
The occasional heavy stroke used
suggests she might be especially inter-
ested in identifying her surroundings.
Indicating, as 1t does a love of beauty.
she might devote her energies toward
encouraging attractive homes and gar
dens in her own community.
She possibly enjoys a quiet evening
with friends at home, or large dances
or teas. In any group her forceful
personality would make her outstand-
ing. She would seemingly be delight
full hostess. We should expect her to
plan infinitely every small detail for her
guests comfort and pleasure Her house
might be the rendezvous for groups of
clever, stimulating companions. They
would surely find warm welcome and
interesting conversation.

FOOD PROBLEMS
BY SALLY MONROE.
Simplifed Sponge Cake.

Much muscular activity goes into the
making Of the usual light, fluffy sponge
cake. A rather modern recipe exacts
this vigor In whipping the eggs, but
less time In measuring ingredients
which IN this case are three eggs, seven
eighths cupful fine white sugar and one
level cupful of self-rising flour.
Separate the eggs, beating the yolks
until light and foamy, the whites until
stiff, combine, sitting In the sugar a
little at time until all is used, then
folding In the flour in the same man
ner. Add the merest pinch of salt and
one teaspoonful of lemon juice for fla
voring. Pour into q shallow pan lined
With creased paper, place In a tenn
perature Of $50 degrees Fahrenheit, i'm
mediately lowering the heat so the oven
will be reduced to q low temperature
while the real baking is going on, which
requires 30 minutes, or under. Test
after 20 minutes with o clean straw.
Remove when cake is done, tnvert on
rack and strip OF paper when cooled.

like lines until later in life. People
mature at different rates during adoles-
cence. Another point to remember is
that some girls have heavier bones and
muscles than others. Two girls or
women may differ greatly In this re-
spect, one being broad and thick-set
with larger hands and feet and the
other being OF a smaller build with
lighter bones and muscles. OF course.
the first girl should weigh more than
the second one.
The difference in the structure Of
the body may be due to racial origin.
Some people are built on a heavier,
stockier plan, while others are Of the
slim, race-horse build. One may allow
from 10 to Is pounds either below or
above the average weight chart and be

SMART WASTEBASKETs MADE AS
LIVING ROOM

A NY woman can transform ordi-
" nary waste baskets, such as
"A can be bought from 10 cents
A a up, so that they are novel and
even handsome. One of the in
tereSting ways is to embroider a design
on the basket, using the cross bars of
the weave exactly as if they were those
on croSS-stitch canvas. AS the squares
are very large on most of these baskets,
q small design will be greatly enlarged,
so be sure to note whether or not the
design will At the basket.
A fine border for this work is the
towering vine, which is eight stitches
high. This is narrow enough to be
worked around both the top and lower
part of the basket. The flower to match
the border Is 26 stitches high and as
many wide. This is without counting
the eight buds about the blossoms. If
the basket weave permits, two, three or
four of the blossoms between the Dor
der strips would be excellent. This
pattern is 10 cents, accompanied by a
eelf-addreSsed and stamped envelope.
A seaweed and fish pattern which is
IS stitches high Is just the thing for the
double border, or it can be used as a
band around the middle Of the basket.
This design Is one well adapted to a

mans room, especially if he Is fond of
fishing. This is cents and self
addressed and stamped envelope.
An ordinary handbook type of scrap
basket can be given character by gluing
an interesting picture on one side. The
picture should be quaint as the bandboX
suggests, for it was in olden days that
the pictured bandboXes were in vogue.
A gay colored box with the tandem
coach design pasted on with a gilt pa
per border framing 1t should be remin-
iscent of the old sampler era. 1t would
just suit the type of scrap basket. The
cross lines about the coach and tandem
pair of horses should remain. These
suggest the canvas which in samplers
is always left unworked. A band
of black with a little line of gilt around
the bandbox at top and bottom edge
makes a good finish. These can be
painted on, or be of paper strips glued
in position. The tandem coach is 10
cents. Please send a self-addreSsed
and stamped envelope also. Delays will
occur without it.
These scrap baskets with their novel
decorations can be made In a short
time, and they are Just the sort of
things to be appreciated as Christmas
gifts.

The concerted drive, the second since

It will be modelled along the lines Of

be made to check illegal signs every

Miss Lavinia Engle, Montgomery

Commission was to be commended for
handling the enforcement of the law in
a sensible and conservative way.
It has been the policy Of the commits

BULK METHOD OF ROASTING COFFEE
 IS NOT EXACT
In Spite of Care It Is Difficult to Develop Uniform
 Flavor

It is virtually impossible to ac- curately roast coffee in bulk, be- cause there is no exact way to de- termine when all of the batch IS "done." One roast may be high" and another ''low," with the result that there is variation of flavor. Hills Bros. overcame this uncer- tainty, by inventing and perfecting a radically different process-Con- trolled Roasting. By automatic control, stream of coffee passes continuously through the roaster q feav pounds ot C time. Positive control of the heat is maintained. with the result that every berry Of the rare blend is roasted evenly to the degree that insures a rich, uniform, full-bodied flavor in every pound.
 No other coffee tastes like Hills Bros. Coffee because no other coffee is roasted the same way. Controlled Roasting is Hills Bros. process exclusively.
 Grocers everywhere sell Hills Bros. Coffee in the vacuum can that keeps it ever-fresh. Air, which destroys the flavor of coffee, Is ex- tracted from the can and kept out. Coffee packed in ordinary cans. even fl air-tight, does not stay fresh. Ask for Hills Bros. Coffee by name and look for the Arab-the trade rnark-on the can.
