Manners
of the
Moment

THE girl who leads men on with
L the phrase, "Oh. oh, what know
about you!' really isn't playing very
fair. It's mean advantage to take
Of any one. We don't know single
person who is able to resist the phrase.
But, we're warning all men 6.
the girl is usually a fake. She has
merely learned to say the phrase with
a tantalizing infection. When she
pulls it on man, he will know in
his heart that there's nothing to it.
He'll just ignore the remark first. But
it will gnaw at his curiosity, and be-
fore he knows it he'll be trailing her
around saying. What is it you know
about me?" OF course because that's
her game, she'll dangle him until the
party is nearly over, and then she
will tell him that she saw him help
ing his secretary into the bus yes
terday.
She should be tied to the village
whipping post. Honestly, that's an
awfully mean way to keep a man
carrying tea cup all afternoon. Now
II she really had something good up
her sleeve, she could be forgiven. It's
pretty hard not to make juicy NOR
sci last as long as it can. But when
its nothing but dry old crumb, it
shouldn't be dangled. At least that's
our verdict. JEAN.

Dame Nature for
Their Forms.
BY ELSIE PIERCE.

7 AZY women like to blame 1t all on

perhaps by way of making excuses to
themselves. that lovely women in gen.
eral and screen stars in particular,
get that way" because Nature made
them that way and keep that way,
well, just naturally.
But, back of every screen stars
face and figure there's solid effort and
daily routine. The screen stars good
looks are her stock in trade and she
does have the best possible talent to
help her point up her good looks. But,
much of that talent and information
is made public knowledge and If every
woman were as serious about keeping
her looks as are the screen stars,
every woman would make the most

This condition, however, will not last
long.
Crab meat is high this week-with
the inferior quality being somewhat
scarce, but shrimp and scallops are
good and not expensive in the least.
Curried shrimp make a delicious
cold weather dish. and don't forget
about cooking scallops on skewers
under the broiler flame. alternating
each scallop with mushroom, bit
of bacon, and lambs kidney.
Meats show little change. Veal is
a tiny bit higher. and so is pork, but
not enough to get in pother about.
Lamb and beef are good buys-but
I am suggesting something a little
different for your Sunday dinner this
week; it will give the family rest
from the usual run of meat cuts,
and also help that pocketbook along
for you. It's just a meat loaf-but
q very special one. And here are a
few facts about this type of food that
might be of interest:
The economical feature of the
meat loaf is that it contains no
waste. Another is that the less
manded cuts of meat may be used.
The grinding breaks up the long
fibers and makes the meat tender.
Therefore it isn't necessary nor de-
sirable to have one of the more
tender cuts of meat, such as round
steak, ground for the meat loaf. There
is no advantage in this, for other
cuts of meat containing more mus
cular tissue are fine in flavor.
There are so many variations of

for life? Which mothers children
are going to be successful? Which
mothers children are going to grow
up into being fine men and women
who will love and honor her and be
q credit to her? And which mothers
children are going to be rotters and
failures who will neglect her and treat
her with scorn and contumely and
shut their doors In her face II she u
in want?
You don't need to be seer to read
the futures of these two families
OF children. The A. children are
going to be able to meet whatever
hardships in life come to them and
triumph over them because they are
disciplined and self-controlled. They
have learned in their infancy to mas.
ter their appetites and their impulses
and they will not make drunkards or
wastrels. They have been taught
obedience and they will not make
criminals or laWbreakers. They have
been taught to work and to keep at a
task until they finished it, and any
man or woman who does that goes
on to success. And their good man
ners are the sesame that will open
every door to them.
Nor do you have to be q crystal

are devoted mothers and their chill
dren are growing up In an atmosphere
Of tenderness and affection.
But Mrs. A. and Mrs. B. do not be-
long to the same school OF thought In
child-rearing. Mrs. AS children are
brought up by hand, 50 to speak, and
when they are so little that they can
not be reasoned with she turns them
across her lap and administers q
spank that teaches . little expert
menter that IT Is painful to pour Ink

in the twinkling Of an eye. Mrs. A.
also believes in law and order. and
she teaches her children to obey her
and respect her authority as their
commanding officer.
Likewise, Mrs. A. Is Of the opinion
that Solomon knew what he was talk

She begins in their cradles inculcat-

They are drilled In table etiquette.

generally to conduct themselves like

only great help to mother, but also
establishes habits OF neatness and
thrift and industry and dependsbility
that will be their best assets as long
as the children live,
Mrs. B.. on the contrary, puts her
faith in the non-interference system
OF bringing up children. She boasts
that she never says don't" to them.
She never suppresses their natural
inclinations. even when they run to
breaking windows and making them

She never makes her children obey

tell her she is fool and that they
won't do what she tells them to do.
