EOR q CONNECTION to pass at tea
time, these tidbits are suggested:
Jordan almonds; crystallized ginger;
candied orange or grapefruit peel; fresh
grapes nodded in fondant; sailed nuts
and minis Of the best variety. Most
Of these items can be bought In jars
or cartons, and kept ready on the pantry
shelf.
The newest and most convenient gas
range Is arranged like cabinet table
with q workable top at one side oi
the burners, the oven below, instead OF
above the table surface. and two roomy
utenSil drawers In the stove unit so that
cutlery, salt, pepper and spices are
all at ones finger tips. The idea, OF
course. is to save waste motion, ex-
ira steps and utilize every inch Of space
The cabinet Is Of steel, beautifully
enameled.
When making cakes with raisins o,
currants, dredge the fruit thoroughly
ingredients after all the liquid has beer
used. This will keep the fruit well dis
tributed and prevent It from sinking Il
the bottom of the cake.
Before opening any canned prodMci
which necessitateS the use OF Q car
opener. place O cloth beneath the car
to avoid soaring the table as the can
jerks and moves about.
The inner the sugar you use In mix
ing your cake, the finer the texture of
the cake will be. Powdered or cereal
sugar is thought to give the best re-
suits.

for 80 minutes or so before using the
contents. I personally follow the plan
OF turning the vegetables from the can
into wide bowl, in order that they
may be exposed to the air as much as
possible before cooking.
Second, add o teaspoonful Of sugar
to No. 2 can Of vegetables, and you
will have o wonderful improvement in
taste. Canned peas will take O bit
more sugars much rs two teaspoon
fuls, perhaps. Aside from its food
value, 1 find that sugar lie q great aid
in cooking practically all canned and
fresh vegetables, and cen be used to
create distinctive new dishes from old
favorites. It's purpose is not artiflcially
to Sweeten the vegetables. but to re-
store the natural garden sweetness
which they begin to lose as soon as
they are picked. No more sugar should
be used than just enough to restore
this natural flavor.
Among the vegetables that are very
reasonable in price now are onions and
carrots. Try these combination recipes
for your family and see II the children
do not hail them with delight.

PLEASING THE MAN
BY CHLOE JAMESON.

SEVERAL days ago, around noon time,
we stood at the delicatessen coun-
ter Of a very fine speciality grocery store
and watched the men who came in for
sandwiches.
To our surprise, not meek, time
driven men dominated this clientele. In
the lineup were Q half dozen handsome,
athletic looking men In meticulously
tailored clothes executive looking
persons who stood patiently In line and
walked of with neatly done packages,
doubtless to eat before solid walnut
desks.
On looking further to find the rea-
son for this patrician patronage, It was
easily discovered in the sandwiches
themselves No mean fare were these
luscious contributions, more like whole
meals than half fare.
On a foundation of fresh rye bread
with seeds in it. one man requested a
filling of Virginia baked ham, covered
with layer Of creamy potato salad and
slices Of crisp pickle.
Another ordered a three-decker sand
wich on slices of brown bread and white
bread. with one layer Of sliced smoked
salmon and for the second deck a thick
application Of cream cheese. topped with
chill sauce.
A third had q Boston baked bean
sandwich on slices of brown bread.
There was piece Of crisp bacon In
the center and a spoonful Of pickalili
sprinkled over all.
We departed with a better under
standing of the kind Of sandwiches q
man likes. Contrasting them with the
woman's idea. the chief difference lay
in the two conceptions of what consti-
tutes an ample filling; the second point
concerned cutting. It Is not necessary,

FARRELL did not turn to look at
Il the girl. His hat brim was
snapped down squarely and in the
darkness she could not see his face.
The coupe's speed increased and
something in the road sent them
jolting from their seats before he
answered.

firmly. Norma never had heard
him use that tone. Bob Farrell had
kissed her before, but never as to-

Bob nodded. The circle to which
Norma referred was a show spot OF
Marlboro. providing sweeping view
Of the entire business district and
beyond that section Of the metro
polls known as East Marlboro.
Bob brought the coupe up the
winding hill, Unanswered to a
sheltered position and cut off the
motor.
There you are" he said with a
wave toward the city below. There's
your fairyland."
That's exactly what it looks
like!"
Both of them gazed in silence at
the panorama. Towering sky
scrapers and hideous commercial
structures, gaudy, gigantic signs and
street lights all were interviewer by
the magic of the night into an cleo
trio fairyland.
Usually there were half a dozen
or more cars parked in the circle to
enjoy this view. Tonight there was
only the borrowed coupe.
Norma turned from the scene be-
low them to meet the eyes of the
boy at her side. She knew what
was to happen a full instant before
1t did yet seemed helpless to pre-
vent it.
The girl felt herself swept into
a tempestuous embrace, felt Far
rell's kisses on her lips and cheek.
1t seemed a long, long time before
she was able to pull herself away.
"Bob" she cried Indignantly.
Sob, how could you"
Don't say it," he interrupted
shortly. Don't even try to tell me
how big fool I've been! I know
it as we'll as you do. Better!"
He was fumbling with the me-
chanism to start the car. In an
other moment the coupe had backed
and turned and they were driving
away swiftly. Through the park the
coupe flashed and out on the open
road.
FarrellS eyes were on the pave
ment ahead. He seemed not to rea-
lie the girl was beside him.
In the shimmering light OF a
crossroads lamppost Norma caught
a swift glimpse of face that was
set and white.

you going?"
