New Berry

Those who like berries all the
year around, and are grateful
for the luscious timed fruits
which make this indulgence pos
Sible, are sometimes puzzled to
know some new desserts through
which one serves the berries.
Here are some new ones for
that favorite berry of many
people, the loganberry.

Too Cold for IntrOductiOnS
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
Four persons are leaving
after spending an evening visit

c and D. We accompany them
to their car which is parked in
an alley in the rear of the
apartment where we live. 1t is
late in the evening, dark and
cold.
Two other persons drive up
after our guests are seated and
ready to drive away. I will call
the newcomers E and F. E

B. but have never met Mr..
and Mrs. c and D.
There is no time for conVer-
Sation of any kind and in the
darkness they could not pos
Sibly see the parties concerned.

if, under these conditions, an
introduction was necessary or
proper? C.
Under these circumstances it
would be entirely out of order,
very forced indeed, to attempt
to make any introductionS.

Sorry I couldn't give all your

why he goes with her.

put the question squarely to

"DO I like Alfred enough to

1t be well to chuck him in the

Who Was Patient GriSelda?
Dear Miss Fairfax:
In a number Of your letters,
I have noticed reference to
Patient Griselda. I may be
horribly ignorant, but do not
know who this feminine equiva-
alent of Job really was. Was
she real lady, or someone in
fiction? ANN.
In the fairy-storybook, Patient
Griselda was a lady who put up
with hideous treatment from
her husband, who did these un-
necessarily cruel things to try
her love for him. He actually
appeared to give away their chill
dren, and Patient Griselda still
smiled and hoped the Lord
would give them "other and fair.
er children"
Today, such paragon of sub
mission would probably find her.
self in the feeble-minded home.
Her own relatives, not to men
ton the in-laws, would decide
that was the safest place for
her.
The modern girl, if you could
call her modern, today, is a
Patient GriSelda, when she takes
everything from the boy friend.
She accepts it when he breaks
dates, she accepts it when he
philanders with another girl,
and she allows him to waste
years of her youth, without say
ing whether his love-making is
serious or not.
Patient Griselda has always
seemed to me deserving of what
she got.

Gentleman Assists

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
Does a gentleman always help
a lady put on her coat, or is it
proper for her to do so herself?
Does he always open the door
for the lady when they are
leaving the lady's home to-
gether.
CONSTANT READER.
The man should help the
woman put on her coat. This is
a polite service that a woman
always expects of a man. One
more thing about this-he
should not give over this gal
lantry to a servant. That is,
when they are given a table in
a restaurant, he does not take
his seat until he has gone to the
woman's chair and helped her
take off her coat and arranged
it on the back of the chair. And
when they start to leave, ne
again goes to her chair ana
helps on with her coat.
Yes. And a well-bred woman
waits for a man to open a door
for her.

Figures dealing with insurance usu-
ally are so large they make the brain

surance companies have paid out
nearly $4,000, 00o,0 in death claims,
made over $4,000, 100000 of policy
loans, held their insurance in force to
