Bellefonte, Pa., February 13, 1920. eee FOR AND ABOUT WOMEN. DAILY THOUGHT. ST. VALENTINE’'S LUNCHEON. «mis well to be merry and wise. "Tis well to be honest and true, "Tis well to be off with the old love Before you are on with the new.” Valentine day suggests hearts and this can be worked out in decorations, place cards, fancy cakes, sandwiches and molded ices. Too much attention to this form is not as good as recog- nizing it in one or two courses which lend themselves particularly well to that design. An attractive center- piece for a Valentine luncheon would be arranged as follows: Select pink roses as the motif of the decorative feature and shape them into two hol- low hearts with a spray of fern here and there, to more strongly accentu- ate the color scheme. In the center of the hearts stand a bisque cupid holding aloft a heart- shaped crown of pink rosebuds inter- twined with smilax. The place cards would appropriate- ly be heart-shaped valentines, with name and date on one side and a suit- able sentiment on the other. In case the hostess is clever handed, instead of the valentines she can cut hearts from pink cardboard and with gold paint decorate them with tiny cupids or other symbols of the occasion. To secure the proper effect in the dining-room, use rose pink candle shades, decorated with either tiny roses or with cupids and pierced hearts cut from crepe paper and ap- pliqued on. The guests may be seat- ed at one long table or at small ta- bles, and the tables may be bare, if polished. In that case use doilies. If the first course consists of raw oys- ters or a fruit course, it may be plac- ed before the guests are seated. . MENU Fruit Salpicon Cream of Beet Soup Salted Nuts Lobster Cutlets Birds, Heart Shaped, on Toast Currant Jelly Lattice Potatoes Cream Cheese and Olives on Lettuce Bread and Butter Hearts Cupid Ice Cream Loyal Heart Cakes Pink and White Kisses Coffee FRUIT SALPICON. For the fruit salpicon take six or- anges, four grape fruit, one cupful of grated pineapple, four tablespoonfuls of rum and sugar syrup to taste. Mix the pulp of the oranges and grape fruit together, add the pineapple, the rum and the sugar syrup. Set aside to thoroughly chill. Serve in dainty glasses decorated with candied rose leaves. The glasses should stand on small plates. When serving the course set these small plates on larger plates before the guests come to the dining-room. These large plates re- main on the table until exchanged with the hot ones holding the birds. CREAM OF BEET SOUP. Six cooked beets, two pints of milk, one heaping tablespoonful of flour, one heaping tablespoonful of butter, one teaspoonful of salt, one teaspoon- ful of pepper, and one slice of onion. Chop the beets and onion and sim- mer them in the milk until they are pulpy. Blend the butter and flour to- gether, then add the beet mixture with the seasonings, stir till they boil for five minutes, then strain. Serve in cups with whipped cream on top. LOBSTER CUTLETS. One fine lobster or a canned lobster, two heaping tablespoonfuls of butter, half a cupful milk, one teaspoonful of lemon juice, one teaspoonful of salt, a few grains of red pepper, one egg, two tablespoonfuls of flour, one table- spoonful of cream, quarter-teaspoon- ful of pepper, some breadcrumbs and some fat for frying. If fresh lobster is used, remove the meat from the shell, reserving the feelers and claws for garnishing. Chop the lobster. Blend the butter and flour together in a saucepan over the fire, then add the milk, boil two minutes, then add the cream, lemon juice, pepper, salt and red pepper; mix thoroughly and add the lobster, spread this on a plate and allow it to _ cool and firm, divide into twelve equal parts, form these into the shape of a mutton cutlet with a knife, beat up the egg and brush over each cutlet, then roll them in plenty of fine bread- crumbs; fry a light brown in plenty of smoking hot fat. Drain on soft pa- per. Stick into the thin end of each about an inch of the feeler or a piece of the stem of parsley. Dish in a ring and garnish with parsley. BIRDS, HEART SHAPED ON TOAST. Purchase good-sized squabs and carefully remove the legs and wings, then draw and wipe clean. Stuff the birds with bread crumbs browned in a frying pan with some butter and seasoned with a little onion and chop- ped parsley. Roast them and baste frequently. Cut some slices of bread a little larger than the birds, then toast them and dip them in the pan gravy. Serve the bird on the slices of toast. If one cannot procure squabs or any sort of small game an excel- lent subsitute is made by cutting the breast from chickens without separat- ing them down the front as usual. Serve with potatoes cut with a lattice cutter and cooked in plenty of smok- ing hot fat. CREAM CHEESE SALAD. For the salad, take two large Phil- adelphia cream cheeses and mash them with a wooden spoon, addin gradually one tablespoonful of French dressing, ped olives, press into a heart-shaped mold and when stiff turn out on a flat dish on which are some crisp lettuce loapes. Pour French dressing over all. Hot Wafers Olives CUPID ICE CREAM. One quart of cream, one vanilla bean, six yolks of eggs, one cupful of sugar and a little red coloring. Split the vanilla bean and put it in- | then Beat to a saucepan with the cream, bring slowly to boiling point. up the eggs and sugar together, NT Fabric and Cord—a Comparison. An Explanation of the Distinctive Characteristics in the Construction of These Two Types of Tires —Why the Cord Proves to Be More Resilient. HE one sure standard by good looking and will be comfortable to ride om, but all standard makes of tires have long since SY adopted standards along A A these lines which make RIAN these points negligible fs S ie when he purchases his fy SAS tire equipment. So that \& the one question before him as he selects his tires is the question of mile- age It is in regard to this very point of mileage fabric tire. A simple change in the strands of cotton which cass is accountable for the greatly increased durability given by the cord tire. Since the day of the old solid rubber bicycle tire it has been quite natural that vehicle tires should be thought of as rubber tires because the out- ward appearance presents nothing but rubber. As a matter of fact, how- ever, the modern tire can reasonably be described as a cotton tire in which the purpose of the rubber is princi- pally to bind the cotton fabric to- gether and to serveas a protection from the abrasive action of the road. The so-called “fabric” tireis built up of layer upon layer of closely woven cotton fabric. The threads which go into this class of fabric are stout and tough and the finished product is a credit to American cotton mills. But the very compactness which marks these fabrics is the real rea- son why fabric tires are inferior to cord tires. Inthe weaving process one thread is bent closely under and f over other threads (See fig.1) and this bending of the threads is the be- E ginning of a process of breaking § which becomes complete when the friction, caused by the use of the tire, is developed to a sufficient point. When the tire goes into use these cross threads beginto saw against add half a cupful of chop- | 1 | i la then ' alcohol cocktail. We wood knot. each other and ultimately saw through, and the tires break down. which to judge a tire is mileage. To the motorist the tire that gives the United States Tire Co's “Royal Cord” Tire is used here. most miles of travel for the money The car driver expects, of course, thal Cross-woven Fabric that the cord tire is displaying its superiority aver the the method of arranging form the body of the tire car- As an example of successful cord tire construction the is the best tire. In this tire the cord fabric is in reality not fabric at all, his tires will be but is a layer of separate cords, lying side by side, all TN TTI running in one direction. (See fig. 2.) It would be difficult to handle the ¥, cord fabric if it were not 8% \ held together in some PN wisi) Way, and for this reason Visca delicate threads are #4 woven through at inter- * ie “ vals. These threads keep mci] the cords together until Caps di the fabric is worked into nis” the tire, but are so slen- : der that they break down immediately when Cord Construction the use of the tire begins. As a consequence, when the tire goes into use, there are no cross threads to set up a sawing process and cause friction. Each layer or ply of this cord fab- ric is dipped in a rubber solution, so that each individual cord is com- pletely covered with pure rubber. Each new layer that goes into the tire has its cords running diagonally across those of the layer beneath it (See fig. 3), thus giving strength to the carcass. Careful tests made at the United States Tire Company’s factories show that these cord tires are better able to stand shocks than fabric tires. Comparisons by means of the shockagraph prove this conclusively. The strength test showing the re- sistance against bruises and punct- ures also gives the verdict of super- jority to the cord tire. A drop ham- mer weighing 100 pounds with a round head about aninchin diame- ter is dropped from various heights on the tire under full air pressure. This test shows thatthe cord tire has the strongest tire body, with the best defense against puncture. Another feature of superiority is resiliency. The slender cords have free play in every direction and are capable of instantaneous adjustment or displacement when road obstruc- tions are encountered. Besides, they are more bouyant, requiring less air pressure up to 20 pounds to the inch. With cord tires, 15 pound pressure to the inch is sufficient, and that re- duction of 5 pounds is a big factor in increased riding comfort.

Beat the butter to a cream with the sugar, add alternately the yolks of eggs and tablespoonfuls of the sifted flour, beating well all the time until the yolks and flour are all mixed in. Beat the whites of the eggs to a solid froth and stir them in. Add one tablespoonful of bitter almond ex- tract.

Think of the difference in cost between taking a professionally prescribed medi- cine and taking Hood’s Sarsaparilla. You know that ordinarily it is considerable. In times like these when everybody should be economical it is well worth saving. Hood’s Sarsaparilla affords the least ex- pensive of all treatments for the common everyday diseases or ailments of the blood, stomach, liver or kidneys. Many physi. cians use the same substances as its in- gredients for these diseases, and ailments, but these substances are better compound- ed in Hood’s Sarsaparilla than they can possibly be in a prescribed medicine which is put up in a small way, with fewer fa- cilities, and when the physician’s fee is added costs a great deal more. Hood's Sarsaparilla is prepared by skilled pharmacists in one of the largest and best equipped laboratories in the world, is wonderfully successful, and highly recommended to those who would recover health and strength with the min- imum necessary outiay. 65-7 —————————— That Dose Shuld be Effective. “What are you treating me for, doc- “Loss of memory.
