Your Home and You
BY BETSY CALLISTER.

There IS perhaps no better sauce for
freshly cooked vegetables than melted
butter. But remember that it should
be merely melted and on no account
cooked. In warm weather it is good
plan merely to leave the amount OF
butter required in cup in the kitchen
The heat OF the vegetables will then
soften 1t sufficiently Finely chopped
parsley may be added to the butter o.
If you like little lemon juice to add
to cauliflower. cabbage and other
strongly favored vegetables.
When you want to use butter To-
spreading sandwiches 1t is not neces-
sary to melt it to make it soft enough
to spread If you do this the flavor
Of the butter Is impaired and it melts
into tie bread in en- unattractive wav.
Instead put the butter while still cold
in a saucer and cream it with silver
fork. This mixes air into the butter,
making it creamy and pliable.
In Dreaming butter and sugar TO-
cakes the easiest and quickest wav i;
to cream the butter in this wav before
adding sugar. This is also the best
plan to follow in making hard sauce
II YOU are in great hurry to cream
butter for hard sauce, try adding tea
spoon or less Of very hot water to the
butter to start with.
Remember when you use butter for
frying that it burns at lower tenn
perature than other fats. 1t is for
this reason that potatoes are more
easily Drowned when cooked with butter
than with other fats.

Fashions in Hair Ribbons
BY MARY MARSHALL.

effect is quite likely to be completely
ruined by the narrow hair ribbon worn
from the nape of the neck to the
crown and there tied in small bow.
This is q little-girl fashion that little
girls are glad enough to follow because
it is also followed by the bigger girls
in boarding school and college. who
are so keen about these narrow hair
ribbons and have them in so many
colors that one rather marvels that the
stores still have any narrow ribbons
left in stock.
Wide hair ribbons are also in fashion
for girls Of Betty's age. A yard Of
seven or eight inch ribbon is folded
to form two loops and two ends, then
crushed in the middle and put into
hair ribbon clasp that holds the
ribbon in place without requiring
relying. But this is a more formal
fashion, followed for occasions when
one wears a dainty dress Of dimity.

different in every respect from brother

For certain type of little girl there
is still another fashion in hair ribbons.
Hair parted somewhere in the middle
and made into two tight, impertinent
braids at either side with ends tied
with amusing bows of inch-Wlde rib

OUR CHILDREN
BY ANGELO PATRI.
Thrift.

Thrift.
like the idea Of thrift much better
than that Of saving. One is likely to
save just for the sake Of saving, but one
Is thrifty for an intelligent end. You
make good use Of money and goods
when you are thrifty. You don't Just
grab and hold on to them. Thrift is
virtue that rich and poor can we'll
cultivate. 1t is not compulsory as
saving Is. 1t allows room for intelli-
gence and one does not feel the pres
sure of poverty as Is likely to be the
case in saving.
Graduation time accented this idea
In my mind. These are hard times and
graduation clothes must be kept to the
limits OF the budget. The ways of
solving the difficulty interested me as
I saw one family after the other meet
ing 1t.
Il will not have to buy Sara a grad
uation dress, isn't that good? I took
her sisters confirmation dress, pressed
It. fitted it little and put a fresh
flower on it and it's just as nice as
can be. She is tickled with it."
Another mother said: Jack has out
grown every stitch of clothes he has
and l have to buy him new suit. He
earned the money caddyirg. I'm going
to buy him blue serge with one pair of
Knockers and one pair of longies. He
doesn't like to go about in good long
pants you see. so the Knockers will do
up to September, and when he goes to
nigh school he can wear the suit with
the long pants. He won't need to wear
IN Ho 10
cold he can put on his sweater. 1 can
always wash and mend that, you see"
JACK listened approvingly. He took
an old wallet out of his pocket and
showed me an advertisement cut from
the newspaper. Here's where it says
can get such a suit for SIT. Here's
one Tor Sl3. but no two pairs Of pants.
Mother Is going to look at them all
and get the best bargain. I don't care,
just so it's blue and 1 can have a good
suit for school in the Fall"
Jacks family was not to be called
poor They owned their own home and
they had bank account for the rainy
day, but for years, ever since Jacky
entered kindergarten he had had an
allowance and had learned how to use
1t. He wasn't boarding, he wasn't even
saving on this suit. He was being
thrifty.
Another sort OF family showed up,
too. One Of the mothers came in to say
that she didn't like our telling the
children they need not have a special
suit for graduation. Any neat suit
would Go. His aunt is giving him a
graduation suit and l want him to wear
1t and look nice. If the other children
aren't going to wear new clothes maybe
she won't think it necessary. I think
every child ought to have a brand-new
graduation suit"
That wasn't just what 1t ought to be.
If thrift was to be considered 1t wasn't
Just what it ought to be if all sorts of
things were to be considered The fam
lily OF this mother had just as much
money as Jacks had, but their way of
thinking was different Even spending

Business women, too, have the same
difficulty, though usually to lesser de-
gree.
When the hands are really quite
soiled and the dirt appears to be ground
into the skin, the only thing that will
cleanse them thoroughly and quickly IS
hand soap. There are a number Of
such soaps ON the market, either in
paste or cake form. They are composed
of soap and some sort of gritty sub
stance with or without the addition of
some free alkali. Any good soap may
be used, but white SOAPS are usual
preferred and those made with animal
fats are said to make a f1rmer paste or
cake and they also lather better than
soap made Of pure vegetable oils.
