We all enjoy slipping once in a while,-but not the kind of slip ping that you do on polished floors when you step on small scatter rugs. To avoid this, cut piece of oil cloth slightly smaller than your rug and place under your rug. Put the shiny side next to the rug and your troubles along this line should be over.
 If you are one of the people who think that the addition of an egg helps enormously when you are making coffee, try this: Let the whites of two eggs become dry by leaving them on a shallow dish. Then crumble and mix this with your whole pound of coffee. This will save you time and eggs, as the dried whites do not spoil. Of course, even the addition of egg whites won't make your coffee as delicious as you expect unless you use the best grade of coffee. Most of our better brands are made up of various blends from different countries and have 8 generous amount of the coffee grown in Co., | lombia, to give it the real flavor that coffee connoisseurs appreciate.

Luncheon Menus Rich In Milk

An abundance of good nourishing foods are especially important at this time of year when, due to lack of the usual amount of sum- shine, resistance to colds and other diseases is somewhat lowered. Mothers are busy seeing to 1t that their children in school have healthful, adequate lunches to for tify them for cold wintry winds and busy hours in school. For these mid-winter lunches, foods .provid- ing a generous amount of milk are particularly valuable. This is true not only for the children but for every member of the family. If all in your household will drink milk yours is not such difficult prob- lem but if it is not taken as a beverage you must devise methods of introducing it into the menu in other ways.
 The menus suggested here con- tain an abundance of milk in more or less disguised forms.

MINUTE MAGIC

All Recipes Here Are Made in Less Than Ten
 Minutes
EVEN MEAT LOAF

Meat loaf in six minutes! Corn Fritters in five! Even a fancy Ice Cream BisQue in ten of them. Magic, that's what 1t is!
 But it's magic you can duplicate in your own kitchen without bene- fit of wand or tall silk hat. The cook in the old song who could make a cherry pie while the cat winks her eye" need have nothing whatever on you. In fact, you can beat her at her own game With a Delight Pie of your own, and com pleteIy outdo her in everything else.
 It's not done with mirrors, this kitchen magic. Easy recipes, quick methods, time-saving ingredients these are the tools of menu magic. which can make every cook Thurston, Houdini or a Keating. The only difference between your magic and theirs is that there is no trick to it-no cards up the sleeve, no girls behind curtains to help you. Just assemble your inA gredients from the pantry shelf-a few cans of this and that. your staples, box of the appropriate crackers, and find out how easy it all is. The use of the crackers means that all the hard work is already done for you. and it is their contribution which turns the trick" we call magic!
 In the following recipes, the time necessary for preparation is given at the beginning of each re- cipe. in some cases, extra time is needed for the actual baking or cooking, but this is the stove's time. not your valuable minutes.

How much does even the charge of adultery
reveal, as to the actual truth? In New York it
is the only legal cause for divorce; this pads the
statistics, yet, nationally, only some 8 per cent
of divorces are granted for this cause. And as
to the New York situation, let me point out a.
startling and revealing situation:
Adultery is felony, under New York's penal
law Fifteen thousand divorces, in that State
each year, are granted on proof of adultery.
Yet no prosecuting attorney in the State takes

But then, the whole legal situation is hypo-
critical There's the idiotic fiction that one of
the parties is the sole offender, the other inno
cent victim. If both parties have offended,
neither can get divorce-such is the law. In
human truth, was there ever a marital split-up
in which both parties didn't offend? Of course
the necessity to satisfy the fantastic law leads to,
and breeds, fantastic and phony allegations and
proofs.
So no experienced observer of divorce-court

"Great mental anguish" is
the phrase. To study di-
