CHICKEN PIE

Take a good-sized pair of
chickens and prepare them for
cooking. Wipe well with a damp
cloth and cut them up as you
would for fricassee. Remove all
the fat and skin possible. Put
the chickens in a saucepan and
cover well with water. Allow to
simmer until tender; then take
the meat out and add to the
remaining liquor one pint Of
rich milk. Rub well together
one tablespoon of butter and
two of flour, and stir in the
milk and liquor. Continue STIR
ring until the mixture is per-
fectly smooth and well done.
Season with salt and pepper,
and a dash of cayenne. A little
onion juice may be added also.
When almost done, add three
eggs, well beaten. Now place
the chicken in a baking dish
which has been previously
lined with rich pastry. Pour the .
mixture over it, and cover with
more pastry. Brush over the
top with the white of an egg,
and bake in a moderately hot
oven.

up their minds about Eskimo
And the Eskimos are happy.
Ever since Eskimos began to
get married they've had their
own way of doing it. Up there
it's like this;
If girl and her pareuts ap-
prove of a suitor, the young
man comes to live with them.
Nobody makes any promises.
Gradually the would-be husband
tries to make a hit both with
the girl and her family. Some
times it takes two years before
everybody concerned is con-
vinced that real love exists on
both sides and that the union
will be happy one.
THEY LAST
But the point, as an observer
has just been telling us, is that
these marriages last. There's no
getting out of them. An Eskimo
knows he's taking on a wife for
life.
I've been especially interested
in this situation, and the loves
of the patient, cautious Eskimos,
because I've been receiving so
many letters lately from Amer
lean lovers who were the very
reverse of patient.
There's no doubt that at pres
ent we take marriage rather
lightly. We think and speak of
it as an experiment" and we
have divorce, which is now so
thoroughly respectable, in the
back of our minds. The result,
Of course, is that many mar
riages don't work. Nobody tries
to make them work,
TOO FREE
We are, in fact, so free and
easy that the simple measures
adopted recently by New York
and other States stipulating
that a marriage. and, in some
regions, of requiring a medical
examination, have act ually
aroused protest.

had a swell time the other day."

her to promise to marry me.
Down we, hiked to the Marriage
Bureau. Biff! No marriage pos
Sible for three days. Biff, again!
The girl changed her mind.
IF I could have been married
on the spot, I'd be a happy man
today"
Would he? I wonder. I don't
see how he could have been
anything but very nervous and
unsettled bridegroom. Obviously,
the boy and girl hardly knew
each other. Some impulse to-
ward gaiety, common to them
both, had brought them to-
gether. At a party, or perhaps
dining together, they could have
had jolly, carefree evening.
But marriage is something
different.
Perhaps the EskimoS, who
were so frightened and Mortified
when somebody wanted to i'm
pose American marriage Gus
toms on them, understand the
thing better than we do.
