These suggestions and advice to
housewives who may have failed to
achieve complete success in their
culinary efforts are offered by an au-
thority on such matters:

your recipe exactly, but in vain.
Well. | can't give the reason, if the
latter statement is exact. Perhaps
may venture guess. l wonder If
the -four was measured after it was
sifted?
1.-THE mixture must not be too
thick, and If the -four was measured
without sitting first it may have been
little too thick. The batter should
be about as thick as heavy cream.
You may need to add little extra
milk to the original batter if the egg
was small. 1t is not necessary TO
beat the batter even until it is smooth.
''Were the pans used of some heavy
material and were they heated before
they were creased? 1t is possible to
make pretty good popovers in tin
muffin pans but to get the tall light
variety heavy pans rather small in
diameter and comparatively tall are
best. / was at Atlantic City last sum-
mer and stayed at hotel which has
always been famous for its popovers
which are at least six inches high.
/ overheard some one in the elevator
say that she came to stay at this
hotel particularly for the sake of the
popovers which are served every
morning for breakfast.
'Was the oven hot when they were
put in to bake? 1t should be about
$50 degrees F. 1t is not necessary
to even open the oven door if you are
sure of the temperature, for at least
twenty minutes. At that time they
should have risen and should be
about brown enough. If fully brown
the temperature may be lowered a
little. In any case turn out the fire
at the end of half an hour and let
them stay in the pan in the oven for
at least ten minutes more.
"Popovers are often used to re-
place yorkshire pudding around roast
beef. They are baked separately
and put around the roast just be
fore it is served. The deep gravy
will flavor them somewhat and the
made gravy may be passed to pour
over them.

The citizens of a considerable town
In Texas were robbed of SS0O000 by

their own carelessness and lack of
Judgment. Sartly by the depression.
and partly by the plain villain; of

sonably apt to recover something from

agents, and the severity of the depres-
sion.
A Texas man was robbed outright
by three noted sharpers. He took
after them. and kept after them two
years, shooting one. and landing the
other two in the penitentiary.
The moral is that the Texas people
at least did something to resent their
wrongs; they did not too tamely sub

DR., WYNEKOOP
To TELL STORY

CHICAGO, Feb. % Q.N.S0.
The State rested its case today
against DR.. Alice Lindsay Wyne-
koop, on trial charged with the
murder of her daughter-in-law,
Rheta.
Thus the time grew near when
the 63-year-old physician was to
take the witness stand and give
her version of the strange operat-
ing table death of Rheta last No
vember.
Comes Suddenly
The State rested its case with
dramatic suddenneSs. Immedi-
ately counsel for both sides hud-
died before Judge Harry B. Miller's
bench while Defense Attorney w.
w. Smith made the conventional
motions. He asked, first, for a
directed verdict, then that the
State be ordered to show which
count in the indictment it will
pursue, then that the court in
struct the jury to find the defend
ant not guilty under IL counts in
the indictment. All motions were
denied.
Mr.. Smith then proceeded to
call his first witness, Vivian Noble,
who is court stenographer. Miss
Molle took dictation from DR..
Harry R. Hoffman, director of
the criminal court behavior clinic,
for a newspaper article. This
article, DR.. Hoffman has testified,
appeared in a Sunday newspaper,
the day after DR.. Wynekoop had
repudiated the so-called "confes-
sion" that she killed her daughter
in-law.
The pursuing his contention
that DR.. Wynekoop's statement
telling Of Rheta's death was OBJ
tanned under duress, Attorney
Smith brought out details of the
situation as it was the day that
she made the statement in a
police station.
Hints at Pressure
Miss Molle testified that DR..
Hoffman said there were num-
erous police officers and at
taches of the Coroner's office
present. questioning this old
woman, slight, lean and worn. -
She also quoted DR.. Hoffman as
having said:
ut was remarkable that q
woman o. this age, without food
and very little sleep, could stand
this ordeal for hours and days."
Roland Hinkle, agent for the
Equitable Life Assurance Com
pany, was the next witness to take
the stand. He said he wrote a So.
900 policy on the life of Earle
Wynekoop under circumstances
tallying closely with the circum-
stances under which DR.. Wyne-
koop took out policies for other
members of the family, including
the slain Rheta.
Defense Counsel Milton D.
Smith stated that DR.. Wynekoop
will not be called to the witness
stand before tomorrow.
