Diet Based on
Essentials
Suggested Outline

b. Edith NJ. Barber

There is only one thing which Will

which is often lacking and which
may be encouraged by the addition
of vitamin 81 in capsule form.
1t is generally best to plan three
hearty meals a day and to omit
food between meals in order that
there will be appetite at mealtime.
At bedtime extra milk, an eggnog
or ice cream may be taken, If it
does not interfere with appetite for
meals, a glass of milk may be taken
midmorning or afternoon.
The daily essentials of a weight
gaining diet are:
Meat, one large serving or two
small servings fish, cheese or two
eggs may be substituted for one
serving of meat. Use liver, kidney
or sweetbreads once week.
Egg, one.
Potatoes, two servings.
Vegetables, two servings-one of
which is raw.

burners, puts a tablespoonful lump
of butter in each, starts the gas.
Then into bowl he breaks eight
eggs, losses in a couple of pinches
of salt, grasps trusty fork and
beats vigorously for minute, as
the pans get duly warmed up. And
then into the skillet goes half of

are in the making.
You know how to make them, of
course. With not too large spatula
you mix the eggs bit to help them

edges and keep them loose from the

pans to keep the omelettes from

ture is cooked through. Now, with
the handle of the pan in the left
hand, with the spatula in the right

omelette to the center and then the

Family Secrets
Are Bound to
Be Told
Children Must Be
Guarded Against
Tale Bearers
By A ngeIb Pari

No family is without its secrets,
at least without the hope of them.
The strength OF the family is its
privacy. The doors are closed against
the world and its troubles and the
four walls of home close comforting
ly about the little group within,
shielding them from the harsh judg-
ments, the biting criticisms, the
troubles of an unfeeling world.
Among themselves they can talk
about the difficulties that beset them
but to know that outsiders are doing
so, hurts.
How secret secret is must be
open to question. Always some
body knows and there is always the
possibility Of that somebody's telling.
One must be prepared for that, and
schooled against too much worry
about it. Usually the worst that can
happen is the gossip, the looks and
the whispers. The closer one guards
the secret the worse those annoy
ances hurt. The truth Is that the
hurt we suffer under such circum-
stances is proportioned to our own
view of the matter. If you dom
care you are not hurt. Care as little
as possible.
The troublesome question here is:
Should the children be told? If
other people know, it is usually bet
ter to tell those children able to
understand, enough about the fam
lily skeleton to protect them from
shock. There are people who love to
be the first to bring bad news and
children must be protected against
them.
If children are adopted, tell them
so right at the start so nobody else
can do so. If member of the fam
lily is in Jail, and the older children
are likely to be told of it by their
unthinking companions, tell them
and shield them. No family is with
out its tragedies. The best we can
do is to live faithfully and we'll in
the place we are in until such time
as we can better it, and do what we
can to shield the children from sui
fering.
OF course there is always the
danger Of little children telling the
world about anything they happen
to hear so one is careful about talk
ing before them. The whole matter
comes down to the usual plan:
Study the child in question; study
the situation: decide on the plan
that will cause the least suffering;
use common sense and leave the Cos
sip and the looks and the whispers
out of it. Stand by the family.
There was an Irishwoman whose
son was sent down from school for
a boyish prank, great disgrace in
the eyes OF the village. AS the
mother passed a cottage on her way
to mass a neighbor appeared at the
door and said with ill-concealed de-
light: well, Ellen, hear Tad is
sent down. My it's too bad for you
to have boy turn out like that"

safely marry a poor girl, but a rich
girl marries poor man at the
peril of both of them. Nothing
wrecks a marriage more surely than
for the wife to be the purse bearer.
No matter how generous a woman
is, she can't finance a husband
without his secretly, or openly, re-
senting it.
If, when they are married, he
drops all pretense of working and
becomes parasite upon her, she
has contempt for him. And if
he finally yields to her nagging
about giving up his occupation and

why should religion, which is the
gospel of love, interfere with our
love for each other?" And: For,
heavens sake, we hope we are
civilized and broadminded enough
to grant each other the privilege OF
worshiping God according to the
dictates Of our own consciences."
But when it comes to the show
down, they can't measure up to
their own ideals Before they know
it they are pickering and nagglng
over doctrines and creeds, and max
ing their home place of strife
instead of haven of peace. There
are plenty of things for husbands
and wives to fight over without
engaging in holy war. Don't do it.
Then there is social position. The
Cinderella motif is sure-fire hit in
a novel or movie, but it doesn't work
out so good in real life. 1t is
romantic to think of the aristocratic
young millionaire marrying the poor
girl at the hot dog stand and bearing
her away to live with his socialite
family. But the romance wears
pretty thin when he discovers that
she is uncouth and awkward in her
new setting, and that all his women
friends look down their noses at her.
And she, poor soul, is of all Wom-
en- most miserable because there is
nothing that can stab a wife to
the heart like knowing that her
husband is ashamed of her. We
pity the man who has married be-
meath him, as the phrase goes, but
the one over whom we should shed
our tears is the wife. She is the
real victim of marrying out of her
class and not all the fine clothes,
nor the jewels, nor grand houses in
the world can atone to her for not
being back among her own people
who thought her Miss America and
who laughed at her jokes instead
of criticizing her pronunciation.
Then there is age That is one
of the most important factors in
the success, or failure, of a mar
riage. For the years dig a gulf
between men and women that nei-
Their love, nor diplomacy, nor good
intentions can bridge. When peo-
pie take mates of approximately
their own ages, they have fair
show at happiness. but when De-
cember leads May to the altar they
haven't a ghost of a chance at
anything but misery. Especially is
this true of women. No sight on
earth is more grotesque and tragic
than that of raddled old woman,
who has bought herself a boy hus-
band, trying to look young and
act young and keep him amused
Nor do the old husbands of young
wives fare any better. The old
man may kid himself into thinking
that he doesn't look his age and is
a mere boy who can 60 the pace
with the 20-..-ear-old he married.
But he soon finds out his mistake.
He is old and tired and wants to
stay at home and rest. She is young
and wants to be on the go. He
wants wife who will rub his rheu-
matte knees with liniment She
wants lad who will 1--WE with her

One wine was served from start to
finish. And that was South Amer
lean white w1ne-from Chile, as a
matter of fact. Three bottles suf-
feed. For those who enjoy settler in
their white wine, there we're two
eyphons.
I'd like to pause moment and
consider this matter of serving one
white wine right through the dinner.
According to the hokum of the
pseudo-wine-cult, Joe committed a
sinful sin-and so then what? Now,
as a matter of fact, with the menu
Joe had prepared, that one single
type Of dry white wine fitted in per-
fectly. 1t took the place of a cock
tail. II was pleasant with the soup
ind entirely correct with the chicken
md the last drop said good-by to the
smelette realize that the so-called
experts" decry such a thing, but
pne wonders If the first real step
toward American wine appreciation
isn't certain independence. After
ill, who said that one must drink
such and such wine with such and
such a dish?
But now to get back to the inter-
ssting menu which Joe prepared in
one smallish oven and on two burn
ers. Like most good dinners, the
preparation started sort of from the
middle. The macaroni for the salad
was cooked the evening before. The
lob was done with pieces broken into
about one inch lengths. Then 1t
stayed in the refrigerator until the
last moment.
The chicken in the bean pot is
me grand dish and no mistake about
It. You must own stable bean
pot, but such pot Is always joy
the older and more worn, the better.
And the bean pot must own lid.
For eight people one should get
about three 4-to-5-pound chickens,
have them joined, and be prepared
to have some left over. There prob
ably won't be, but 1t is an appealing
Idea when laying out the purchase
money. The chicken Is then well
Toured and fried in leftover bacon
tat. Salt and pepper to taste. When
the chicken is fried to a golden
brown, remove it from the skillet
And In 1t make up generous amount
Of good, chicken gravy. Now place
all the fried chicken in the bean pot
and pour the gravy over 1t. Adjust
the lid and put the pot into the oven
ct medium heat and let the chicken
simmer. Depending upon the
chicken, 1t can stand any where
from an hour to two hours OF SIM
mering. If it gets tender ahead OF
time, just turn down the heat. II
the gravy evaporates too rapidly add
.ome hot water, or, II you like, some
dry red wine and water mixed. Have
ready couple of cupfuls of Partisan
tcut round) small potatoes, partly
cooked, a half cupful of cooked or
canned peas, same amount OF partly
cooked carrot rings and cupful OF
small white onions which have been
nicely Drowned in butter. About half
an hour before dinner is to be served,
add these vegetables, season the
gravy to taste, touching up with a
bit more dry red wine, II you like
the flavor.
With the chicken perking along
happily, make the salad. All you
