Observations on Matters Encountered in Feminine World
Housewife Put to Test
By Great American Art
Of Producing Fruit Pie
Two Schools Of Thought Differ as to Chief
Problem, Whether to Bake or Not
to Bake Bottom Crust.

YOU put in the fruit (that Is, an except
apples). But bake the pastry very
lightly until 1t only Just begins to
brown. Heat the fruit, separately,
until the Juice flows, strain OF the
Juice, add to 1t q tiny bit Of cornstarch
and q little sugar, and cook until the
Juice thickens. Then stir the fruit
itself into the thickened juice, place
this filing In the baked pastry shell,
cover with dough, and bake in q mod
erately hot oven-375 to 400 degrees
Fahrenheit.
WHEN fruit pies are made this way
w the oven canot be as hot as with
the other method. But you must
control the temperature very carefully,
as well N the cooking time, or else
the fruit will boil over and spoil the
looks of the pie. In fact, to guard
against this danger, anyhow, 1t Is
well to stick little paper funnel In
the top crust, 90 that the juice may
boil up inside that, harmleSsly, and
do no damage to the pie.
For the thickening Of the Juice
some cooks say cornstarch, some say
-four, and others say tapioca. To
make the pie filling with the latter
simply let the fresh fruit stand in
some sugar, with little Of the tapioca
sprinkled in-the sugar will draw out
the Juice and sweeten the pie, and
the tapioca will blend with and
thicken the Juice just enough.
The Bureau Of Home Economics has
q special recipe for making pie crust,
which seems to be absolutely fooiproof,
and would be well for the bride to
include In her kitchen scrap book.
DIRECTIONS FOR MAKING PIE
CRUST.
For one pie use ~ cups sifted soft
wheat -four, teaspoon salt, b to Q
tablespoons fat and about 212 table
spoons water. II you like flaky
crust use solid fat like lard or hydro
genated vegetable oil. If you like
crumbly crust you viii get it by using
melted fat or o cooking oil.
Mix the -four and salt and work
in the fat with the tips Of the fingers.
When the -four and fat are "grainy"
add the water slowly and use no
more than Is absolutely necessary to
make q stiff dough. On a lightly
floured board roll out little more
than half the dough into a thin sheet
large enough to line the pie pan. Pat
the sheet of dough into the pan so
that there will be no air bubbles un-
derneath, put in the pie filling and
moisten the rim Of the dough- Roll
out the dough for the upper crust,
allowing a half-inch extra for the
edge. Fold the sheet Of dough In
half, make few slashes through both
thicknesses through the center and
lift onto pie. Spread over filling, press
edges well together, trim on surplus
dough and bake.
If method No. 2, as outlined above,
is to be followed, line the pie pan with
the dough and leave q generous turn
over around the rim. Prick the dough
every 2 inches all over the pan. Pro-
ceed as outlined In above direction for
method No. 2.

Dorothy Dix Says
Whose Fault That Men Wait for
Girls to Entertain Them?

but when q girls lips are free for
every Tom, Dick and Harry, men
have sort of lost their taste for them.
The chaperon may have been a bore,
but she was first aid to matrimony.
Then, too, If girls have fewer atten-
tions from men than their grand
mothers did, it is because they have
made the fatal mistake Of taking all
the sport out of the woman chase by
making 1t too easy. It Is the DIFFER
ence between knocking over q setting
hen and bringing down bird on the
wing. One rouses a mans ngntlng
instincts. The other makes him tired.
II there are no ardent suitors now, 1t
is because men know that the girls
will do all the courting and they
don't have to bother about 1t.
A NNABEILE rings Tom UP and
= wants to know why he hasn't
been to see her and when he is COM
ing. She writes him 10 letters to his
one. She buys the theater and ball
game tickets and comes for him in
her automobile. She forgives him
when he stands her up and breaks
dates and she thrills him Just about
as much as any other overripe fruit
would. It Is the peach that hangs out
Of reach on the tree that whets a
mans appetite.
And women mufded the wedding
bells when they instituted the "splen-
did camaraderie" between men and
women Of which we hear so much.
In the old days when the only way a
man could really get to talk to girl
without all of her family listening in
was to marry her, he grabbed her up
and rushed OF to the parsons. There
were virtually no old maids then.
RUT now, when men and women
- work together and play together,
a man gets about all Of girls society
he wants without letting himself in
for her support. Hence, the girl bach
elor with q gentleman friend who has
been hanging around her for 10 years
without ever popping the question Is
q familiar figure In our midst.
Also. It is women who have dealt an
almost lethal blow at marriage by the
alimony racket. So ruthlessly has this
been prosecuted that it has made
marriage such q hazardous adventure
that only the boldest and most fool
hardy attempt it.

RTdCeIul dtQ easy W wear hIc
W the frocks that are sunburst
pleated, as shown in the
sketches today. In the fashion maya
zines, on the screen and in the shops
these dresses have made their appear
ance recently. giving lis suggestion
Of the ancient Greek costumes to
satisfy our taste for variety. The
classical flowing lines Of these gowns
are delightful on the dance floor and
refreshing wherever worn. Chiffon,
sheer crepe and satin all lend them
selves to this treatment.
The frock at the left above is Of
lilac chiffon with ripple skirt and
pleated separate cape. The waist Of
this dress has a round high neck that
fastens at the back, but is slashed to
the waistline and Is sleeveless. The
other frock Is of quicksilver satin,
coolly radiant in the new "ice" pastels.
The capelet conceals decolletage that
is square at the front and becomes
a deep, wide v to the waist at the
back. 1t Is q more formal frock than
the chiffon.
TN A shorter-length afternoon dress
you will also find an attractive lilac
sheer with the same sort Of pleated
skirt, and q waist with cowl drapery.
A violet velvet ribbon belts it smartly.
The white cotton lace shirtwaist
frock with Peter Pan collar is still a
favorite for dining and dancing, and
quite perfect for Midsummer weather.
It has enough body to hold up when
exposed to humidity, and yet allows
the air to pass thru it. In a model
with medium sized rose pattern and
short straight sleeves on the belted,
fitted jacket, 1t Is excellent at less
than $500.
Pale pink organza with ruching Of
the same material edging the bottom
Of the skirt, and the little cape which
is cut up sharply to the neck from the
elbows, makes a dainty, youthful pic
ture frock, suitable for bridesmaids as
well as parties.
Dark sheers are pretty good invest
ments at this time Of the year. They
are fine for travelling, If you start out
on a hot day, and If you are headed
north, you can always put on a coat
If necessary. They are the perfect
answer to the question, What shall I
wear"P when all your light frocks need
cleaning or freshening up, and in fact
they are quite indispensable in the
wardrobe.
The jacket frocks with shirred yokes
and full, loose backs are well worth
considering. One Of these is q rather
striking diagonal plaid Of blue, violet,
green with a little white and pale yel-
low. 1t has elbow-length puff sleeves
finished with navy taffeta turn-back
rufles. The dress has nice short
sleeves and q collar on the v neck
with large blue button holding q
shower Of silk-covered cords.

The Old Gardener Says +:

Turnips are among the vege-
tables which can be planted as
late as Midsummer and still ma
ture before the coming Of cold
weather, even in the Northern
States. This applies to the sweet
kinds, however, and not to the
Swede or Winter turnips, which
should have been planted by
June /. Seed should be acwn in
drills and the young plants kept
well cultivated. They will make
the best growth after the weather
begins to get a little cool and
the flavor is improved py early
frosts, which means that the
garden maker need be in no
hurry about digging them. In
some sections turnip tops are
high in favor for greens.

VILLAGE REJOICES In
Gift OF TELEPHONE
Priest Blesses Instruments as
Service Is Opened Between
Madrid, Viela, in Spain

The Spanish government recently
made an unusual present to the vii
lage Of Viela, on the southern slopes
Of the Pyrenees. AS a result, there
is great rejoicing in that section. For
the gift of the Spanish government
consisted Of telephone service, and
to reach the village the engineers
had to take the telephone line
through deep passes and over snow
covered hills.
The New York Times, in describ-
ing the event, said: ION the morn
ing OF the great day, the peasants,
townspeople and the school children
formed solemn procession, headed
by the mayor and the priest in their
most gorgeous robes. They marched
through the snow to the central ex-
change, and the privileged few for
whom there was room saw the priest
shake the holy water over instru-
ments and switchboard and bless
them all In sonorous Latin phrases.
After that there was feasting and
dancing. Men wept and embraced
each other on the streets, all because
they could talk into one end of a
black instrument to Madrid and
hear the voice of the city through
the other"

Health and
Hygiene
BY DR.. w. D. Brown
MIGRAINE

A condition in which there is
severe headache on one side of the
head, accompanied with marked
vomiting, is spoken of as a sick
headache or migraine. By this name
we mean a primary condition and
not a secondary effect as may oc-
cur in some other disease entity.
For example, such symptoms as
these may occur in any infectious
disease such as smallpox, influenza,
and so forth; but true migraine is
a disorder of the nervous system
and is considered by some observ-
ers to be closely related to cpl
lepsy.
Migraine usually begins in early
life, and patients frequently say
that they have had these attacks
as long as they could remember.
The attack is very distressing as
the headache is very severe, and
usually persists in spite of heroic
treatment. The vomiting likewise
is disabling and leaves the patient
weak and Frustrated.
AS in epilepsy, the exact cause
of this nervous discharge is not
known. Autopsy reports have as
yet thrown no definite light on the
subject. For that reason the
treatment is entirely symptomatic.
Many Of those so afflicted have
found by experiment something to
do or take to lessen the severity
of an attack. However, the value
Of all this type Of treatment is
probably of little help. The physi-
clan, on the. other hand, should
correct all physical and functional
abnormalities in the patient. A
carefully regulated life should be
observed with special attention
placed on the fact that the ner-
vous system must under no con-
dition be put under unnecessary
stress and strain.
Recently a drug, ergotamine tar
trate, has been found to have some
favorable effect on many victims of
migraine. This substance is poi
sonous and should be taken under
direction Of a physician as it is
derived from ergot.
