As long as tomatoes are plenti- full they answer the salad question in my family and when they get scarce, this year, I have a brandA new bunch of ideas. Did you ever realize what could be done with pears, for instance, both fresh and canned? And with nuts? Take this for one example:
 Two ripe pears, 2 tart red ap- ples, 4 teaspoons minced candied ginger, 4 tablespoons diced celery, 2 tablespoons chopped walnut meats, cups shredded new cab bage, 1 tablespoon blanched and shredded almonds, 2 tablespoons shredded green pepper, 1-2 cup seeded Tokay grapes.
 Serve in Nests of Cabbage
 Pare and dice pears. Dice ap- ples without pairing. Mix pears< ap- pies, ginger, celery and walnut meats. Mix with French dressing and let stand on ice for thirty minutes. Shred cabbage very fine and let stand in cold water for ten minutes. Drain and mix with almonds and pepper and enough mayonnaise to make moist. Make nests of cabbage on individual salad plates. Fill each nest with fruit mixture and garnish with seeded grapes.
 A nice way to serve mayonnaise is to put it in halves of fresh fruit instead of masking individual sal- ads with 1t. Or fill the cavities of pears or peaches or apples with cream cheese beaten with cream until light and fluffy.
 A fruit salad so often does dou- ble duty, answering for both salad and dessert that it should furnish enough food value to adequately take care of the two courses. Keep this in mind when you serve des- sert salads and increase the calo- ries with whipped cream in the dressing or cream cheese in the salad.
 Imperial Fear Salad
 One package lemon or lime-fia- vored gelatin, cup warm water, 1 cup pear juice, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, IA teaspoon salt. 1-S teaspoon ginger or tablespoons minced preserved ginger, six Bart lett pears, 1 package Philadelphia cream cheese, tablespoons whip- ping cream.

WHEN A GIRL MARRIES.

WHEN A GIRL MARRIES.
 A young woman, teacher, with a god position, has been more particu- lar than almost any girl I know about her friends, never foolish a. bout love affairs, has nice home and fine family. She has fallen in love with a Hindu and seriously considers marrying him and going to India to live, as he cannot be- come citizen here. Her family is frantic. Are there any arguments on heredity or the physical side that one might use in trying to per- suade her against taking this step?
 (Mrs. M. R)
 If you had a son who was in love with a girl who has negro blood in her veins, what would you do? The boy'is nineteen, the girl two years his junior. They have been sWecthearts for five years, in a childlike way at first, but they seem to be getting serous now. The girls father was for several years principal of .. school and gave splendid satisfaction in an entirely white community. Once or twice there were whisperings that he was uart negro, but this was said to be just gossip. Lately, however, we learned that the family has negro blood almost beyond a doubt The girl herself is a splendid, highly in- telligent young woman and looks rather like a beautiful Dumanian. and if I am any judge she would make this young man a splendid wife. He has just finished his freshman year at ..... University. {. (Mrs. I. e.
 The data given would not in- fluence my view of either marriage
 For the assurance of Mrs. I. C. and others who harbor fictitious notions about heredity, it may be well well to repeat that a throw back" or reversion to type" never happens in the human race. That is, & black child is never born of parents, one of whom happens to have a small admiXture of negro blood. The offspring of such parents will be no darker than the darker parent.
 More important than the question of color is the question of physi- cal fitness for marriage. Forget the mingling of blood and consider rather whether the persons con- templating marriage can pass a medical examination which shows freedom from communicable or transmissable disease and freedom from physical deficiency which would invalidate marriage.
 The first talk had in this col umn, before many present readers were born, was a plea to parents to demand health certificate and a plea to young men to obtain one voluntarily and submit 1t to the parents or guardians of the young woman before engagement is con. tracted. Then and many time. since I have been roundly scored for not insisting that the prospec. tive bride should furnish similar health certificate. Frankly wavel a bit about that these days, bu I still think the onus is on thu male of the species. AS I sec 1t every man owes such health assur ance to the woman he would marry and any right minded woman, fo the sake of her home and her fam ily. should wish to ascertain wheth CT any heritable or physical i'm

As far as beauty routines are con- cerned, habit is the important thing A good cream, used night after night, month after month, will do your skin more good than several kinds, applied only now and then. No cream can do the work it's sup posed to do during one application. Or ten, for that matter. It is regu- larity that counts.
 Speaking of habit, intelligent loy- alty to preparations that have serv- ed you well is an excellent idea. The woman who buys 8 jar or bottle of every new cosmetic that pops up on the market not only is being ex- travagrant, but the chances are she'll never get much good out of anything.
 Her dressing table always will be cluttered with various half-empty containers she seldom touches but hates to throw away because they were expensive. Furthermore, she'll never be satisfied with her beauty treatments.
 When you have found g lipstick that is the right color and which will stay on your lips for hours and hours, why discard 1t the min- ute you catch sight of new vari- ety in different looking case? Of course, if the new type is more satisfactory, this is good idea If 1t isn't better, change is silly.
 Remember, too, thSt 1t is better to have one really good cream than three or four mediocre, ineffective ones. If you are a one-cream girl, pick an all purpose cream which you believe will cleanse and nour- ish your skin and keep the pores small as well. Use 1t before you go to bed every night of your life. no matter where you are or how tired you are.
 Get a rouge that blends easily and learn where to apply 1t. Then smooth it on the same way on the same spots day after day. It should match your natural skin tones. of course, not your dress. bag, shoes ] or whatever.

Trains should De avoided if you dance. They happen to be the exception, rather than the rule for the, forthcoming season, and arc only featured in the very formal type of gown to be worn at fune- tfons where dancing is not cus- tomary. Few women have the knack of picking up their train gracefully on the dance floor, and even the most beautiful model can lose much of it's style if 1t displays too much leg or Is punched un- slightly over the arm.
 Decolletes are also extremely varied, and there are enough styles to suit every possible type. The off the-shoulder line is perfect for the woman with rounded pol isi1ed shoulders and well filled In neck. Then the high -at-thc front and very low at the back Is a new mode with the neck emerg- ing from a collar which sprouts like flower petals from the shoul- ders. The slotted neckline through which a vivid velvet ribbon Is run goes with the Renaissance type of gown and is also extremely be- coming.

''ManaN cah't l go along?".
O. Oevs Robes.s nsrtoa i.

"MamaScaht I go along?"
 'Well-k you want to. But you won't have a good time, Mary. I'm going to get a dress and hat for myself. You'll get very tired
 No. I won't get tired. I don't want to stay here."
 So Mary went along, or rather mother went along with Mary. For you see, when they got downtown to the big store, Mary saw things she wanted. "A smart plaid coat and cap caught her eye first. It was on the figure of child about her age.
 T need new coat, mother. Can't just try it on?"
 Mother hesitated. Why, she thought, hadn't she taken the other elevator that did not lead through the children's department?
 T guess you don't need new coat as much as I need a dress, dear. Your blue is still very nice"
 The clerk approached. Isn't that 8 lovely coat2 The cap goes with it. It's a special today and only $7.cJ for both. Why don't you let her try it on? This little bit of red goes so well with dark hair"
 Giving Up The Clothes
 Mother had to confess that Mary looked extremely well-turned-out Silently she did some rapid figur- ing. If she did without hat and bag it would just about make it. She could get a brown dress to go with her old brown felt instead of the complete new green outfit she had planned.
 She sighed, T never saw her look so nice. I tfhnk-I guess-yes, we'll take it."
 Mary danced with joy. Cant I wear 1t homer"
 "Well-all right. Send the old one, please"
 of to the ladies' dresses, then. She tried on several. There was 8 brown that su.t;d her nicely, but 1t was too high-priced. T think I'll wait until Saturday" she said, when your cheaper ones come in" On the way out they went through the children's department again. A little girl was trying on a smart jersey dress. Mother, look," cried Mary, "thats Sally Smith. I wish had a dress like that"
 Well -"
 Isn't that cutel" smiled another clerk. Were almost giving those dresses away today. They come in all shades, too."
 So Mother Got Nothing
 They were a bargain as it hap pened, so Mary got two. And be- fore she left the store she also had new shoes and socks. Because her mother decided that while she was doing it she might as well stock her right. The brown dress could wait a month and children had to look nice. Her old black would do well enough for Mrs. Smiths tea.
 What we are wondering is about that dress and hat next month. WEI mother get them or will Mary convince her by that time that she needs @ fur piece, or something? And as the years go on, will Miss Mary always look like million dollars beside her shabby mother? Ana isn't 1t possible, too, that she may learn to think 1t selfish and heartless if she does no, get every thing first?
 :. think mother should have marched off alone, bought the green outfit she had worked and longed for. But mothers aren't made that way, are they?

 3. According to notable paper entitled Where Are the Marriage able Men?" prepared by Dr. Paul Popenoe, college girls should not in- vite college boys to their social af- fairs if they have an eye to get ting husbands. He points out the college boys have no jobs and not very good prospects of jobs; that many will have to take professional courses and not be ready to marry for years and marriage engage ments often break down from the long delay. He suggests the col- lege girls invite the young men of the Junior Chamber of Commerce and others who have jobs and can marry. Worth thinking about young ladiesl

 Paris. (UP)-That expert tailor, Henry Creed, can make suits with a smartness and smoothness of line that cannot be equalled by any other Paris couturier. Since 1885 promises to be another suit year, l have chosen three of his suits which would complement any wardrobe.
 For sports, there is the grey-blue tweed with straight skirt whose side seams are split beneath a plaque to give freedom to the legs The tailored, fitted jacket has shoulder pads of brown chamois fexcellent for shooting trips) and is trimmed with round brown leather buttons. It has wide hip pockets whose flaps also are secured by leather buttons. This is worn with brown chamois blouse which but tons down the front.
 For town. Creed shows a greer woolen two-piece suit with fitted jacket trimmed with reveres anc collar of black astrakhan. The cuffs 
 are of astrakhan as are the twir rows of buttons which trim tht jacket front. A. black felt huff trimmed with astrakhan. and 2 green felt hat from Rose Vallois art worn with the suit.

QUESTIONS and ANSWERS.
 Damp Quarters.

Damp Quarters.
 Is it dangerous for young chil- dren or adults to sleep in bedrooms the walls of which are actually wet three feet from the for0 up? We heat with gas stoves, but no stove in the bedroom. Mrs. G. M. S.l
 Answer-Not so far as the damp ness or moisture is concerned. But 1t is likely the gas heater or heaters lack adequate vents or connection with fiue or chimney to remove products of combustion from the house. Water is one product of com bustion -- the least injurious. A wooden, plaster, metal or plaster board wall inside the other, with some air-space between, would cor rect the annoyance of accumula- ton of moisture on the wall and mouldering and spelling of wall paper, etc.
 Falling Hair.
 Daughter, 12, convalescing from typhoid fever. When we comb hel hair 1t comes out a good deal. We have been told 1t will come out completely till she is quite bald and they advised shaving the head i'm. mediately. I. HJ
 Answer-The hair falls more oi less after any severe seize like that The less cornbing the better, and tho more gentle brushing the better the hair will grow vigorously agair as the patient recovers strength Shaving or clipping the hair car make no difference in it's growth Send stamped envelope bearing your address, for monograph or "Care of the Hair" which deals witf falling hair, dandruff, badness, etc Copyright 1895.

i. According to an analysis made by Science News Letter, In 1900 there were 100000 people in the United States 65 or older, which was then 4 per cent of the popu- Iation. Now there are 7,500,000 or e.4 per cent. They calculate that fn 1870 this proportion of old peo- pie will reach 10 per cent. This is partly because at the other end O: the span of life, fewer children are being born; the consequence will bc that during the next one or two generations there will be fewer and fewer young people to earn the pensions for taking care of the old people-a very serious economic problem but one we must prepare to solve.

 New York - Grandmother would have laughed at the idea that the pattern of your linen table cloth should match or at least harmonize with the design on yourschina and that both should be definitely re- lated to the tracery on your crystal glasses. Yet the present vogue takes all that as a matter of course.
 Grandmothef rarely embroidered her own table cloths but embroider- ing all her household linens is grand daughters fad of the moment Her table cloths. by the way, are getting bigger, indicating, according to those who know, that entertain ing in big way is coming back.
 Women embroiderers are choosing floral patterns for gay informal table cloths with cross stitch or lazy daisy stitch and then matching with china and fresh flowers.
 The very newest note for the wo- man who stitches her own is inl- ported linen especially designed and woven to accommodate the embroid- cry pattern. Thus, a popular fall cloth is woven with damask and f1let border and the design is stamp ed on middle section, left plain. Guest towels have woven-colored border in a theme repeated in the woman's own work. The tropical fish craze comes out in towels stamped with guppies. Cut work is done too.
 Cross stitch, however, is almost the most popular needlework of the moment because the straight lines and uniformity lend themselves so well to the modern motif. It's a sothing kind of hobby to have-em- broidery - or at least, so the occu- pational therapists declare. Anyway, they've put 1t into hospitals, believ- ing that rhythm induces calmness of mind for mental patients.

gracefully. Lelongs "wimple" dress is one of the most graceful examples of this type of adorn- ment. The headdress can either be worn as a cowl collar, attached to a jewclled bandeau, falling on the front of the bodice, or else drawn over the head where 1t falls on either side of the face, some what in the fashion of medieval nuns "coiffe." This impression Is enchanced by the cloak that is meant to be worn over the dress, almost severely simple in Its long, flowing line.
