One of Americas best known glass

American glass reproductions. Their
lamp bases, table services and

authentic antiques and fine re-

Waterford reproductions have the

for its crisp silve1y color which
characterized the early pieces, and
their Hobnail, which is as we'll

Praise and Sympathy Best Recipe
For Keeping Husband at Home

A woman who is quite peeved with
me asks: "Why are you always tell
ing wives to appease their husbands
instead of telling them where to
get of? Why do you think we
should Jolly our husbands along and
build up their conceit when, good
ness knows, they've got swelled
heads as it is? Why should we treat
our husbands like little tin gods
when we know they are nothing but
stuffed shirts?
Our husbands don't waste any
elbow grease in trying to rub our
fur the right way. They don't sugar.
coat any of the bitter pills they
make us swallow. They don't use
velvet gloves in handling us. They
put on their brass knuckles. They
don't hesitate to tell us to our faces
that We are getting old and fat,
and our hats look as if our worst
enemies had picked them out. and
that we don't know what we are
talking about when we express an
opinion that differs from theirs.
After all, when a man is old
enough to get married, he is grown
up and shouldn't need to be babied,
fed on pap and be told fairy tales.
He should be adult enough to be
dealt with on realistic platform
and to take his wife's criticisms,
that are made for his own good.
without going into the sulks over
them. So why should poor little
wife wear herself to skin and bones
keeping a great big hulking man
pleased with himsef?"
Well, of course, in strict justice,
there isn't any reason why in mar
riage the wife should be the bouquet
hurler, but then there isn't any JUS
tice in marriage. There is only ex-
pediency. Nor is there any logic.
1t is just that things are that-a-way.
And when husbands and wives be-
gin standing upon their rights and
figuring out what each owes the
other and trying to collect their
debts, they are on their way to the
divorce court.
But to the wives who want to
know why they should continue to
cut bait after they have hooked
their poor fish. which seems to them
an unnecessary waste of time and
effort, I would say that 1t is because
it is the most profitable labor in
which thew can nossihlv enpape and
the one branch of woman's work on
which they can always cash in.
And If this seems a dark saying
let wives prayerfully consider these
simple facts: Wives should cajole
their husbands because men need
f1attery more than women. 1t only
tickles womans vanity to be told
how beautiful and wonderful she is,
but 1t builds up a mans morale,
which is his fighting weapon. 1t
holsters his self confidence and
makes him feel that he has the

|WhyGrow
Old?
By Josephine Lowman

-
Few women have enough vitality
or energy to do everything they
would like to Go. They must mar
row their horizon by a series of
choices. In doing this they ac-
tually enrich their lives and add
charm to their existence, because
without choices, fatigue will over
take them and everything will be-
come dull ard meaningless.
Sheer fatigue can make life lose
its meaning and can breed feeling
of futility. Yet the average woman
allows her life to become cluttered
up with all kinds of obligations and
activities that add nothing to the
happiness of herself or her family.
Some of these Ito be discarded"
activities are mildly pleasant, but
they are not worth the price they
demand in energy, nor in increasing
complexity and fatigue. We are
usually unwittingly swept into this
state of confusion and then sud-
denly realize that we have no time
left for the things we really wish
to do, Neither do we have the en-
ergy to truly enjoy the things we
do accomplish and we just drag
along in a state of half Illustration.
1t is always important to happi-
ness to direct energy into chosen
channels, but it is especially impor-
tant for the middle aged person
whose energy may have decreased
slightly since early youth.
Life Is complex enough no matter
what we do, and therefore every
woman, and particularly the mid
dle-aged woman, should simplify it.
She should face herself and her
activities and decide whether she
is getting what she wants from life
or whether she is being swept along,
willy-nilly, in the line of least re-
SlStdnce.
Household organization, remedy
ing as many irritating conditions as
possible, and mental discipline will
release great amounts of energy. So
will the process of sweeping the
dull, the depressing, the non-essen-
tial activities and habits and obli-
cations away from your daily life.

Fresh Spinach
Plentiful and
Good forYou
Bv Edith NJ. Barber

Good cooking of spinach begins
with it's preparation and this means
thorough washing. The easiest way
is to have two dishpans and to wash
the trimmed leaves in one half
filled with cold or warm water. The
spinach should then be lifted out
of the first water and placed in the
second. This leaves the sand where
it belongs The use of warm water
Wits the leaves and cuts the time
of cooking slightly. Only the water
which clings to the leaves should be
used for cooking The time will vary
with the spinach, but averages from
to 10 minutes.
The water which remains after
the spinach has been drained has
an excellent flavor and can be used
as a stock for sauce to serve with
chopped spinach or may serve as a
basis for soup. The recipe listed be-
low for creamed spinach comes from
Sweden, where it is very popular.
Spinach timbales with a cheese
sauce will furnish good main dish
for luncheon or at meatless sup
per. A spinach ring filled with
creamed mushrooms is another sug-
gestion for the same purpose. One
of my favorite dressings for un-
chopped spinach or as the French
call it AUX branches" is sour cream
sprinkled with nutmeg.
