TO STIFFEN BASKET.
(Thnnks to Mrs. J. A. S.,

I find your column very interest
ing and helpful and hope The Star

come.
Here is a recipe for cottage cheese
pie:
l package of cottage cheese.
eggs, beaten.
cup top of milk.
l teaspoon sugar.
Grated nutmeg.
Mix in order given and put through
strainer and pour in unbaked pie
shell and sprinkle nutmeg on top.
Bake in moderate oven for As
minutes or until filling is set when
tested with knife blade.
Moisten enough sugar very
lightly to cover the basket, dip the
basket in the sugar so as to cover
it WELL Then proceed to shape over
a glass or anything of the same
size as the basket and allow to dry.
The important thing is not to have
the sugar too wet. 1t must not be
melted or dissolved when it is put
on the article to be shaped.
I hope the above will be of some
help to your readers.

nails are wide, don't paint all the
day down at the sides. No one will
notice a tiny bit of unpainted nail
and the effect will be a much
prettier. narrower nail. To make
your nails appear longer, apply the
polish over the nail, moon and all;
then just remove a hairline from
the tip. incidentally, it's good
idea to forego the super long talons
for the duration. They're hard to
keep, and they're less efficient.
Moreover, we've never heard of a
man yet who liked them.
Pardon us for pointing-but here
are few more pointers. Don't use
steel instruments. They may bruise
your nails. An emery board is
much safer and gentler than a steel
file; orange sticks are good for
everything else. Don't cut corners.

They hesitate to sit down in a chair
that is upholstered in delicate satiny
fabric OF light pastel shades. Un-
consciously they are aware of the
fact that their heavy wool suits
and large frames look awkward and
out of place in such a setting.
Men like things that they use
everyday where they can get at
them. They don't like to have to
put everything out of sight lest they
ruin the room decor, nor do they like
to hunt for everything they want
when they need it. A convenient
room is a room that is in good
taste. So notice where your hus-
band places his favorite chair,
where the small table is in relation
to the chair and how the lamp light
falls in the correct position. Use
this same routine in other groups
in the room and you will suddenly

guests at her wedding reception?
Answer-Yes. 1t would be entirely
proper. Or-merely as suggestion
it might be helpful to have an old
er sister, or grandmother, or a spe-
cial family friend receive with them
also. in order to permit the father
to move about among the guests as
fathers usually do. On the other
hand, other members of the family
may look after the guests and in
troduce strangers and let this father
remain alone with his daughter.
