Tips on the Food Market
By LUCIE EBERLY.

CEvERAL merchants in one Of our
local markets who specialize in
day-old hennery eggs are featuring
their annual special this weekend
Fresh hard-boiled eggs beautifully dec
Grated all ready for the Easter basket
The eggs used are, of course, strictly
fresh and the dyes pure vegetable COL
oring that does not penetrate the egg
shell. Unusually clever are the dec
orations-humpty- -dumpty faces. char
acters of the funny papers, as well as
interesting flower designs and mod
erristic motifs. The eggs are packed
in regular egg carton boxes and are
sold by the dozen and half dozen.

morrow morning if you plan to have

of those who didn't read the news"
we'll repeat. While taking inventory
of the splendid selection of salad
green's now available in the stores. We
discovered that one of the latter is
featuring a mixed Spring salad bunch

old-feshioned soup bunch grand
mother used to buy for the soup kettle!
Chicory, lettuce, chives, watercress,
Spring onions, tomatoes, ETC.; in fact.
almost any combination you might like
to have It is certainly grand idea
We think, and we only wonder why it
hasn't been done before-it makes 1t
possible for the small family to enjoy
price-and encourages the homemaker
to include more of these healthy foods
in the everyday diet. Radishes and
celery this week, appear to be better
than any received so far this year.
and one Of our local chain stores has
Just received carload Of new Ber-
muda onions from Texas, that are per-
fectly delicious. Large, crisp and
juicy, delicately favored, they are the
perfect addition to any salad.

A SPARAGUS is seen on every side
"A now-and is daily dropping In
price. Sweet corn, from Texas. full
cared, tender and juicy. is evidently
going to stay from now on. We just
saw a few ears last week, but this week
almost every large stall had q fairly
good supply. Green peppers, snap
beans, green peas and spinach appear
to be the best buys at the vegetable
stalls this week. Limas, however, have
dropped in price-but are still too
high for the average budget. Cabbage
sprouts, a vegetable that was intro
duced not so very long ago, is becom-
ing very popular. we understand with
Washington housewives. It not only
has a delicious flavor, is easy to pre-
pare, and healthy to eat, but proves
to be the very cheapest vegetable on
the market. Children appear to be
especially fond of it.

CURELY you will want to serve
- something little different in the
fruit line for breakfast Easter morning!
Honeydews are really excellent just
now-large, fully ripe, and consider
ably cheaper than they we're a few
weeks back, so do consider them and
give the family treat. Strawberries
served with uncooked cereal, make a
delectable breakfast fruit too. Bananas
are coming in better now-they are
always nice. sliced, and served with
cream-or better yet, baked. Large
navel oranges are still good. and they
offer several ways of preparation
sliced. very thin, baked. or cut in half
and served like grapefruit-or peeled
and served in sections attractively ar
ranged on a lettuce leaf, and topped
with powdered sugar.
WE FIND meat prices just about the
w same this week. Some Of the
stores. and several of the stalls at the
market, however, are running specials
on breakfast meats. Smoked country
sausage, as we'll as the green sausage
is being featured at almost all of the
stalls. and ham and bacon have drop
ped few cents in price. Calf brains
and lambs kidney are also specially
priced. Some cuts Of beef and lamb
as well as pork, merchants say, will De
specially priced tomorrow, to en-
courage the holiday buying. Poultry
which will no doubt be a favored
holiday meats plentiful, as is sea
food-so the possibilities of the Easter

Dorothy Dix Says
Housewives Are Better Off in Most
Instances Than Are Business Women.

OF her work go until she feels more like
1t. She can find time to take a nap
or read or gossip with a neighbor, and
she doesn't have to be always on her
tiptoes turning out good work for fear
she will lose her job.
x*
MO BUSINESS woman would fail to
report at the Office because 1t was
raining or because she had been out
late the night before and did not feel
like working. Nor would she dream
of sitting down and reading the paper
before she started her days work or
leaving customer waiting or her let
ters untyped because she wanted to go
shopping. Neither would she expect
her employer to accept as an excuse
for poor work that the bridge party
didn't break up until so late that she
didn't have time to do 1t well. It's
only the domestic woman who gets by
with those alibis.
How any woman can find running
house and rearing family monoto-
nous, heaven only knows, since every
hour of every day brings a new prob
lem. Husbands alone are enough to
keep a wife's curiosity at the boiling
point, since no woman can figure them
out in advance and have the slightest
idea of what they are going to do next.
Watching a little child's mind de-
velop is the most fascinating and
thrilling and exciting thing on earth.
ANY woman who doesn't get more
kick out Of having her baby's arms
around her neck than she does out Of
getting the glad hand from the public
simply has no sense Of values. She
is lacking in imagination if she doesn't
see that the most worthwhile job any
human being ever pulls of Is shaping
a child's character.
1t is a pity that domestic women
are so sorry for themselves and that
they look down so much on their jobs.
Perhaps they will think better of them
when they learn that they have more
time and money to travel than other
women and are not half so tied
down as are their sisters, who think
they are lucky to get two-week vaca-
ton in the Summer.

Tune Your
Perfume to
Your FrOck
BY ELSIE PIERCE.

CPRING and flowers and perfume
- and a spirited stride-they're all
part of the seasons scheme, aren't
they? They belong to it even as the
robin and the crocus.
Many women who don't use perfume
the rest of the year suddenly feel
a magnetic urge at this season that
takes them straight to the perfume
counter. The heavier perfumes belong
to Winter. They're out of step with
Spring. Floral and bouquet odors are
fine and only the modernized versions
will do. the fashioned scents lean
just a little too much to the obvious.
And while we're on the subject it's
quite the modern thing to do to
change your perfume primarily with
the season, and then with the costume.
Paris says, Tune your perfume to your
frock."
Here are the recommendations OF a
famous perfumer. With the tailored
suit a special bouquet blend which
happens to be neither too sweet nor
too sophisticated. With the spectator
sports frock an odor slightly more
exotic than the bouquet blend. With
the figured crepe, that indispensable
frock which goes to business, bridge
or dinner with equal savior faire, q
perfume that Is thoroughly sophis.
ticated, that by its very fragrance
suggests the idea of going places and
doing things. For the sheer frock
which the couturiers sponsor for more
formal wear a perfume that is COM
pletely disarrning.
There you have 1.-THE new per-
fume idea. At least three Of the four
types of perfume mentioned above
can be obtained in tiny, inexpensive
flacons. Instead of buying one fairly
large bottle, buy three small ones
indulge the whin, or is it theory?
Anyway. there's nothing finer than
perfume if you want to panper your
self, and there's nothing like pamper-
ing yourself to make you feel as new
as Spring itself!
If you find that you have to con-
tent yourself with just one perfume
the bouquet blend is a safe bet.
If you have to be very "choosey" pick
a perfume you like and one that others
will like on you.
BY the way, nothing is more well
come than prize of perfume bridge
enthusiasts please note). Splendid,
too. as a birthday, anniversary or
gift for any occasion. And if you
think a word to the wise is sufficient
you might leave this around where
fond eyes might find the hint.

Playthings
Should Be
Instructive
Good Books Also I'm
portant in Develop
ment of Children.
BY ANGELO PATRI.

THE things that children play with
l. are important. It is better to
give them no toys at all. but let them
find what they can to play with, sticks
and stones and some water, rather
than to give them things that allow
them, even lead them, into learning
Improbable habits of thought and
action. ! would rather let child play
with the lid Of q box and clothespin
than give him cap pistol, for exam
pie. would rather he fioated chips
in the brook than sailed the submarine
that has guns and motor.
A child's play is his business in life.
It is quite as important to him as our
daily occupations are to us. He Is as
deeply engaged in his game of play
horse as every one of us can be in a
rise in the market. His play is what
gives him the first actual experiences
with resistant forces in the world out
side his hone. What he learns in his
play soon shows in his behavior.
There is little excuse for giving a
child a toy that teaches him some
thing he has to unlearn. Any game
that teaches him to throw ball and
hit picture person or animal on the
head, or teaches him to use such tar
gets for pistol practice, is not funny.
1t Is as bad an influence as can be
turned on a child's behavior.
There are many good games to be
had for very little. Blocks of all sorts,
materials and tools of all kinds are
cheap. They are good for children be-
cause they offer them opportunities
for creative effort. A child, who is
building or making something, is
growing in power in many directions.
Toys that lend themselves to such use
are worth more than the money they
cost.
For very little children trar1sporta-
ton toys like wagons and scooters big
enough for them to ride on, are good
because they help the child TO be self
directing. independent and go adven-
turing within safe limits. Balls are
good for all children, the soft rubber
ones for the younger ones, basket balls,
foot balls, base balls. tennis and golf
balls, all are good for children and
older children, too.
Miniature equipment is always well
come. especially the housekeeping
equipment that can be actually used
by little girls. This comes in all forms,
all grades. all sizes from the tiny
washing outfit that costs 10 cents TO
the electric stoves that cost much
more. Golf clubs, the right size for
boy. a fishing rod that suits his hand,
are just right for the half-grown lad.
The thing Is to suit the toy to the
owner.
Books are not exactly toys, but they
are delightful things for children to
own. Every birthday anniversary,
every occasion for a gift ought to have
it's appropriate book. The treasured
library that a child builds up is one
of his choicest possessions throughout
his lifetime. Along with the ball there
should go to the book, the best book Of
its kind. 1t cannot be too good for a
child to read and to own.

This should stifie the means OF
those sob sisters who are forever COM
planning over the dullness and drab-
ness of domesticity, and telling US
how tied down a wife and mother Is
by her family, and how she never gets
to 60 places and see things. For II
appears from these oficial figures
that the housewife Is the favored OF
her sex, who has the time and money
to go gadding about the world, just
as she Is the one who can lie down
in the morning and take nap If she
has headache, and put Of until TO-

or course, no one is going to deny
that there is plenty OF work and worry
and aggravations in making a home
for husband and children. 1t takes
lot of labor and lot of time to keep
a house clean, cook three meals a
day, count the calories, keep an eye
on the vitamins, darn the socks,
mend the clothes and do the count
less other chores that the wife and
mother must do, and many a time
when she has walked a sick baby all
night her feet ache and she is so tired
that she wishes she could lie down in
the grave and take a good long sleep
and rest.
CHE wonders whatever made her
fool enough to choose marriage
for career. She thinks enviously of
the woman buyer starting of for
Paris. the secretary sitting at her ma
hogany desk, the stylist putting on
one pretty dress after another, the
cinema actresses with nothing to do
but stand around and pose for their
pictures, and she is sure their lives
are glamorous and thrilling, not dull
and stupid like hers.
What the discontented housewife
does not realize is that every job IS
job, no matter whether it is being
President of the United States or an
Office boy. All effort by which. We
earn our bread Is work, and when we
have to do the same thing over, day

AL work is hard. All work is monot-

yet, in reality, her labor is no harder
and no more tedious than that of any

The same gang committed both
kidnapings," Hoover told reporters
yesterday.
Modus operandi of the gang was the
same IN each case. Hamm was seized
by several men as he walked down
ST. Paul street on the afternoon of
June is, 1888. He was released after
William w. Dunn, friend, had tossed
bundle of 100000 on a lonely
stretch of road near Wyoming. Mimi,

headlights.
Kidnapped in Same Manner.
Bremen was kidnapped in much the
same way on January II, 1884, as he
walked along the street after taking
his daughter to school. He was re-
leased after Walter Magee, friend
named as intermediary, had thrown
a 100000 bundle of currency to the
road near Faribault, MINI. The sig
nal for the ransom payment this time
was the flashing of red. green and
white lights from the marine lamps.
All of the So kidnapping cases which
have occurred since passage of the
Federal "Lindbergh law" have been
listed as solved. Some of these cases
have been handled entirely by the
