in favor. 1t is important to know just
how TO keep the fruit juices from
making the pastry moist. and how to
manipulate the dough to give the
maximum lightness to the finished
product. Pies and tarts are made Of
a stiff pastry dough. Shortcakes use,
as a rule, a soft biscuit dough that
is somewhat shorter" than the aver
age. The main differences between
these doughs lie In the varying pro-
portions of liquid and fat that go
into them. These differences must be
carefully studied.
So also for fruit pie, the baking
procedure may determine whether
the bottom crust shall be crisp and
tender, or heavy and soggy with fruit
juice. Here are some tried and proved
directions to guide the novice.
PASTRY DOUGH-"
use an all-purpose -four" says the
Bureau of Home Economies, -four
which is a blend OF hard and soft
wheat fiours. And for a fiaky crust
use lard or some other solid fat, like
hydrogenated cottonSeed oil or other
vegetable fat. Pastry dough is short
and stiff. The proportions are five or
six tablespoons Of fat and only about
two and half tablespoons of water
to one and half cups of sifted flour
and one teaspoon of salt.
The solid fat is cut into the -four
until the mixture is crumbly and lit
tie like coarse corn meal. Use a bis
cult cutter for this, especially in warm
weather, in preference to the fingers.
To work the fat in with the fingers,
the fat cold and the room cool, and
work quickly so the warmth of the
fingers will not soften the fat too
much.
THE quantity OF water is very i'm
portant. If there is too much, the
dough must be manipulated so much,
TO shape it and roll 1t out, that the
gluten in the -four develops to point
of sickness and the crust when baked
will be tough. With too little water the
crust is crumbly. With just enough
water it is tender and fiaky. The
method of adding water also is i'm
portant. Sprinkle it evenly into the
mixture of -four and fat. Use cold
water to keep from melting the fat.
'DEEP-DISH PIES AND TARTS.
Easiest and quickest to make are
the deep-dish pies and tarts. This is
something for the cook to remember on
a hot day because it means, for one
thing, about half as much oven time as
the regular two-crust fruit pies re-
quire.
"Deep-dish pies are made, Of course,
in deep pie pan or dish, or in in
dividual casserole dishes. The fruit Is
put in first, sweetened, dotted with
butter and sprinkled with bit of salt.
Then layer of pastry dough, rolled
thin and slashed with knife or
pricked with a fork to make openings
for escape of steam, is laid over the top
and pressed down over the edge of the
dish. Bake in a moderately hot oven
(375 to 400 degrees Fahrenheit). What
we call deep-dish pie is really what

Hints
On Gaining

BY ELSIE PIERCE.

THE thin ones have all the best of
it in the good old Summer time.
All they have to do is to avoid the
''don'ts" laid down to the weighty

stylishly stout that there's danger in
the ice cream cones, sandwiches and
sodas that Summer offers. The stouts
need the will to say nay. The thin
ones have Fate their way-it's a
sure way to gain weight.
The matter of dressing on salads. Tho
thin ones need fruits, vegetables and
salads quite as much as the stout in
dividuals for the vitamin and mineral
values in these foods. It's the dress
ing that makes the difference and
where rich creamy dressings, mayon-
nsise, oils and fancy, appetite whet-
ting dressings are denied the over
weight, the thin individual can indulge
to her hearts content.
Rolls, breads, biscuits and butter
are weight makers. Cream and milk,
pies, desserts are all good for you.
Count your calories and let them
mount. But don't concentrate toe
hard on gaining. Reducing rules need

be easy, slow, sure.
Be content to pave the way. Tha

about it. There is not much sense in
sending a child to bed who protests so
heartily that he does not sleep until
long after the time when he Is usually
deep in the unconscious. Nor can he
be allowed to stay up too long night
after night because that robs him of
rest and growth. But constant irrita-
ton about sleeping time robs him, too.
Couldn't there be some sort of COM
promise with Summer and daylight
saving?
Try out some scheme that lets the
little one stay up little longer, say
IS minutes each night, he to watch
the clock. Or even one night week.
On very warm nights when the Sleep
ing room is hot and close, and the
dark is filled with the murmur of
voices and the clink of ice in glasses,
perhaps a stay of Is minutes to half
an hour might be allowed.
This can be done because We usually
let the younger children rest for a
time after luncheon. We usually allow
them to undreSs and wear only light
garment while they lie quietly for
time to gain poise for the demands of
the long afternoon. A child who has
had this quiet time, who has relaxed
end rested and feels refreshed by it
can stay up little longer in the eve
ming. The thought Of this privilege
will induce him to take the rest he
needs so much.
When we show our willingness to
meet the children's difficulties with
sympathy and understanding, when we
accept their complaints as worthy of
our attention and actually make an
effort to help them they, in turn, are
more willing to listen to us and to
accept what we decide is best for
them. 1t does parent no harm in the
eyes of the children to show himself
approachable and kindly, even amen
able. 1t is the experiences that chill
dren have with their parents in such
matters as bedtime that sets their re-
lationship for years to come.

L ney, and if he can negotiate
these without skidding over the brink
into the pit of domestic misery he is
fairly certain to make the trip safely
to the land of hearts desire of happy
marriage.
The first danger is that of his get

This peril is peculiarly likely to befall
the young man who is the architect of
his own fate, and the psychological
moment in which the catastrophe is
most likely to take place is when he
starts forth to seek his fortune.
Then, just because he feels senti-

home and old friends, and because
some girl weeps at parting from him,
a young chap is likely to fancy him.

for him.
THE idea of a woman loving him
and keeping herself for him ap-
peals to all that is gallant and ro-
mantle in his nature, and at first when
he thinks about the girl she seems to
him seraph from the skies.
But as time goes on, as absence and
distance come between them and as
he is shaped by the influences of his
new life, the picture dims and the
maiden ceases to look like a seraph.
She appears more like sheriff who
is waiting to collect promissory note
that he signed under the influence of
the going-away- from home brand of
dope and that he has come to regret
bitterly.
THE next danger young man runs
is Of marrying some unsuitable

in the same house with her, or worked
in the same office with her. Propin.

that Lady Luck will pick the winner. but

we found my ball nested in eel-print in the
sticky black mud at the near edge of the
puddle. Under the rules you are entitled to
lift out of casual water without penalty -
but was the ball in casual water? Secretary
Archie Reid and President Jaques of the
United States Golf Association tapped the
ground, but no water showed.
1t looked as if were sunk. 1t was fatal to
lift and pay the penalty. The green was a full
shot with a Number Three iron. but that club
would not raise the ball quickly enough to
clear hill that rose abruptly in the way.
Only Lady Luck doing her prettiest could
help. Taking Number Four iron, settled
in solid, comfortable stance on the slippery
ground, and took slow but hard smash at
the ball. It rose out of splattering mass of
mud that showered all the neighborhood,
sailed high. dropped on the edge of the green
and rolled up to within six or seven feet of
the pin! 1t was just one of those shots that
couldn't possibly come off, but there it lay.
Lawson's easy pitch and run approach
shot developed hook that kept it off the
green. If you think for moment that the
miracle he had just looked at bothered him in
the least, you simply don't know Lawson
Little. He is the kind of player who would
calmly slug his way through an earthquake.
His third shot was well up. and mine rested

but knocked my ball in = for birdie three!

Lawson Little had his share of ups and
downs when he won the British Amateur
crown in 1884. He swept through the field
like plow, turning down his opponents in
neat furrows so that when he came to the
final day everybody was sorry for the man
