There hangs a sabre, and there
a rein,
With rusty buckle and green

A pair of spurs on the old gray

And a mouldy saddle-well, that

Come out to the stable-it is
not far;
The moss-grown door is hang
ing ajar,
Look within! There's an empty
stall,
Where once stood a charger,
and that is all.
The good black horse came
riderless home,
Flecked with blood-drops as well

See yonder hillock where dead
leaves fall;
The good black horse pined to
death-that's all.

Youth Feels
To Blame for
BrOkenTrOth
BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX

Famous Authority on Problems
OF LoDe and MGrriuge)
Dear Miss Fairfax:
when we met, she was not
only engaged to another man,
but the date Of her marriage was
set for the early summer. We
got crazy about each other and,
to the fury Of her fiance, she
would dance with me all the
time and not be at home when
he called, though he knew per-
fectly well I was in the house
with her.
After a good deal of this
treatment, he broke the engage
ment and no one blamed him. It
seemed then the only honorable
thing for me to do would be to
ask the girl to marry me. But
I didn't want to marry her. I
was madly infatuated, and knew
that for what it was.
II think this cut her up pretty
badly. because here she was, a
girl whose engagement had been
broken because she showed an
undue interest in me, and I had
not done what was expected of
me and become engaged to her.
FEELS RESPONSIBLE
But she was a young lady not
destined to be left alone for long.
She began to smile on a married
man, and his attentions to her
have caused terrific amount o.
gossip. His wife is said to be
considering Reno, naming her
as correspondent.
II feel more or less responsible
for this girl, and her fascination
for me is by no means over. At
the same time, I hate the feeling
that I have been railroaded by
gossip into marrying her. I feel
terribly muddled over the whole
affair. "A. G. F."
AS far as having any obliga-
ton toward this girl is con-
cerned. I don't see it. She was
engaged to another man when
you met her. and she felt no
sense Of responsibility toward
him. You we're just two young
people in the grip of fascina-
ton, and apparently felt no
responsibility toward anyone.
If you had cared enough for
her at the time her engagement
was broken, that was the time
to come across. But you didn't.
And I can't see why you feel
that her future adventures in
romance should rest on your
conscience.
If you have discovered you
really love her, that's another
matter.

EFFECT OF HEREDTTY
This is particularly true Of
boys and girls who have gotten
into their middle and late teens.
Then their personalities often
change and new qualities ap-
pear or familiar ones become
accentuated. We can't know
what to expect and so we can't
map out a line of action.
The four children Of the
mother who was asking about
them were all born under what
would appear to be identical
conditions of marital happiness,
moderate finances, and a rather
uniform social setting. All Of
which makes us realize that
environment is only one factor
in molding a personality and
that heredity is the other potent
force at work.

am giving you below the
recipe for praised beef, German
style. 1t calls for the use of
plenty of vegetables, so you had
better have on hand onions, car
rots, tomatoes. celery, string
beans and potatoes, as all these
go to make up this succulent
dish.
For your luncheon I am sug-
costing an apple and potato
salad, a combination that goes
very we'll together, and for your
dinner dessert, chocolate frappe
which the children, particu-
larly, will revel in.
APPLE AND POTATO SALAD
Have as many large good
apples as required; cut a thin
slice off the top; remove the
core: then with a sharp knife
remove as much of the inside Of
the apple as possible without
damaging the outer skin.
Sprinkle the inside with a little
lemon juice to prevent the
apple from getting dark. Dice
a few cooked potatoes and cut
up the inside from the apples in
the same way: one stalk OF very
finely chopped celery; season
with salt and pinch of pep
per: mix all well with mayon-
naise. Fill the apples with the
mixture; arrange neatly on let
tuce leaves, and top eacn apple
with a slice of hard-boiled egg.
BRAISED BEEF WITH VEGE-
TABLES-GERMAN STYLE
Take a piece of round or tip
of sirloin. about six pounds;
wipe off with a soft cloth and
lard with fine strips Of fatback
from both sides. Season with
salt and white pepper, and
place in a roasting pan which
has been lined with thin strips
Of bacon.
Top the meat with a few bits
Of butter: add two sliced onions,
One bayleaf, four carrots cut in
one-inch lengths and a few pep
percorns.
Put into the oven and slowly
begin to brown the meat and
vegetables. When beginning to
brown, add four tomatoes, and
half cup of red wine, and let
simmer until the wine = is re-
duced. Now cover the meat with
a pint of stock or water and
let simmer in the oven until
tender. Strain the stock and
thicken a little to be used as
gravy. Place the meet on a hot
platter and garnish the dish
with the following previously
cooked vegetables: Bruised eel
cry, saute string beans, and
diced potatoes.
CHOCOLATE FRAPPE
Crate four ounces of choco-
late: Add to this pint of boil
ing water, place over the fire,
and stir until it boilS and
thickens. Put one pint of milk
into a double-boiler. When it
becomes scolding hot, turn into
the chocolate.
Move this to the back of the
stove, while you make a syrup
of two cups of sugar and enc
cup of water.
Boil until it spins a thread.
Add this to the chocolate. Whip
half pint of cream to a stiff, dry
froth. When the chocolate be-
comes cold, stir the whipped
