 Ginger leaned toward him over the table - closer and closer. Her eyes looked not at his work on the pad of paper. but into his face, a thin tanned face, with big gray eyes that seemed swimmingly dark with shadows.
 She twisted her hands together on the table and tipped her small face back fiower-like in order to gaze more fully into his eyes.
 "Gosh," he said. "I can't do you in black and white. You've got to have color for such face. Ivory and blue and gold" He leaned forward suddenly and touched the tip of her chin tilted up toward him. His hands were burned

Story for the Children at Bedtime

What in the world is the trouble?"
asked a squirrel with a bushy tail,
who happened TO be near a place in
the woods where he saw a little girl
was crying.

tie girl, land I've lost my-oh, oh. oh,
I've lost my" then she sobbed and
sobbed and couldn't say another word.
Pretty soon one Of them said:
Lets ask our old friend, Mr.. Giant,
to suggest some way of stopping Ma
halia from crying"
"Oh." said Mahalia between her
sobs, "he may eat me up and stop my
crying that way. But I've lost" and
then she burst out crying again.
Dear me. no." said the squirrel
who had suggested the giant HE is
the kindest giant you can imagine"
All the other squirrels who had
come around. too, to see what was
the trouble, said:
"Bushy Squirrel is perfectly right.
What he says is so. The Giant is
very hIUu.
Yes" continued the first squirrel
who had spoken to her, or Bushy
Squirrel, as he was called, "he is our
best friend. He lives in a cave just
a little way off, and whenever we go
TO call on him he gives US nuts TO
eat and sends home nuts to our moth
ers and fathers.
HE tells US wonderful stories Of
his adventures. He's as big as the
cave but he can curl up way inside
where none of the real people will
bother him.
Hes afraid if he came forth they'd
put him in a circus-and he does love
the woods so much.
Why, he says" continued the squir-
rel, that when the circus comes TO
the town nearby, the only thing he
misses about ii is the peanuts. and
he wishes for them so we can have

"Oh," said Mr.. Giant, I'VE will have
to find that" And he looked all
around, and down behind fern was
the missing basket with the straw
berries.
Then the Giant and all the squirrels
set to work and gathered many wild
strawberries so that Mahalia's basket
was filled when she left them.
She loved wild strawberries almost
better than any fruit and she was
very happy about having such a lot
of them.
The giant was happy because he
had proved to one more little girl that
a giant could be dear, friendly soul,
and the squirrels were happy that they
had been the ones to bring all this
about.
So you see, although the story be-
gan with tears, it ended very happily.

Mans Own Standard of
Life Should Be Guide

Every normal person has a stand
ard of living, that is, way of life
that is congenial to his tastes. and he
ought to make all reasonable efforts
to maintain his existence at that
level, making sure the while that he
himself does not boost the ante with
every stroke of good fortune.
But it should be his standard of
living; it should express his own
mind and soul. Otherwise it is a
species of hypocrisy. OF course. no
man will ever know what his needs
are until he takes time to think
about them, to decide for himself
what they are. And he will never
be in position to have his needs full
filed unless he has decided once and
for all. and in his own mind, what
they are.
I verify believe-and it is no part
of my religious faith-there is not a
man alive who could not swear that

Perhaps you have always thought OF
chop suey as a dish that is too IN
usual and foreign TO prepare at home.
As a matter of fact, chop suey is IN
known in China; it originated in
Chinatown in San Francisco, in an
attempt TO give visitors something out
of the ordinary. 1t is made with such
Chinese ingredients as water nuts,
bamboo shoots. bean sprouts, soy
sauce and often dried mushrooms, as
well as chicken or pork, but a very
good dish closely resembling the orig
inal chop suey in flavor may be made
with vegetables that are common in
most American localities. Soy sauce
is sold in a great many groceries, and
the chop suey will be almost perfect in
favor if you can get it If not, wor-
cestershire sauce will do. Soy sauce
contains a good deal of salt, so the
amount of salt needed in your chop
suey will depend on which kind of
sauce you have.
Why not invite your friends or FAM
fly TO try Chinese supper some eve
ming? If you have any Chinese aces
series or decorations, so much the bet
ter. At least, you can make chicken
chop suey and rice the main attrac-
ton, with preserved ginger for des-
sert. The Chinese do not use bread
and butter, because they have the
rice, but you may serve it if your fam
lily prefers. The vegetables on which
we depend for vitamins are incor-
porated in the chop suey-onions and
celery. The recipe below is from the

Hints for Housekeepers

Dried fruits are some of the best
confections for the children because
the sweet is less concentrated.
Prevent rusting in the oven by leav-
ing the oven door ajar for an hour
after baking to allow any moisture to
vapOrize.
Pastry improves by chilling, so aft
er the dough is mixed, wrap it in
waxed paper and keep it in the refrig-
orator a few hours.
Mattresses will last longer and be
more comfortable If they are turned
frequently, summed and cleaned with a
brush or vacuum cleaner brush at
tachment.
