The Love of
Admiration
'By
ELLEN ADAIR
I
r.-Too irumy women have deeply rooted
, "craving for admiration bom In them, and,
ithfs prove to be one of the hardest
Ulngs-to overcome, Unfortunately, how-
SSVer. the woman who labors Under this
handlean seldom or never wants to over
orne It, and will rarely even admit the
Rafting.
j! .'There goes Mrs. Smlth-suoh a pretty
ffbman." said a man tho other day; "but
howjshe does UnoW the value of her own
Ifeodilookst She expects you to pay her
fcotmilfmenta all the time, and after a
Kit, it: does Bet monotonous! She would
ha a. nice, attracttvo woman If It were
Knot for her Intense love of admiration.':
1 This falling Is not alone confined to.
Dratty women. Somo of the homeliest
Hooking people havo tho craving very
SMly Indeed. When this Is tho case It
jtensrally plunges them very deeply Into
e,ac& of extravaganco as to clothes. 'Xho
plain woman consoles herself with the
IrenecUon that flno-feathers may-make
fflhe; hlrds, and coins for herself a new
proverb, "Manners maketh man, but
pciothea maketh a woman."
j& . . . -
.Tho love of admiration will certainly
Rlead women to do the most odd and.
Extraordinary things. Some of the very,
(freakishly dressed persona aro exceeding;
fly homely looking. Ono wpnders why, .on
Hearth'' they should deck themselves out
Has' & 'sort of ptibltc laughing stock. -frf
,'Ihft-other day two women were walking
f-'down Ii prominent street, one being very
'..pretty and rather quietly dressed, while
Stho other was verj plain-looking and ar-
5 rayed most garishly. Several people turned
their heads to look after the coUDle. and.
the pretty woman was obviously' embar-
L,;rassed. Iter companion, on tho contrary)
jf was delighted with the notice -they were
ff attracting, and soldi
"Just .look hqiv all. the men are admir-
I . Ing me, Mary, I do wish you would
roart up a bit, and dress more llko me,
lUien they would stare at you, too."
Her pretty, quietly dressed companion
-shuddered and marveled Inwardly that
ithe loye of admiration could ever lead any
J woman to such ridiculous extremes, as
,-thoea In which her friend Indulged.

"'This unfortunate falling has ruined the
happiness and the home of many a mar-

SUGGESTIONS. PRACTICAL ARTICLES. AND FASHIONS FEVERY WOMAN
I A r SSF iS.-
ow
TO Ufed
mlo force, one motive power. And that Is
the wlfAV craving .for admiration. Some
times tlusv craving develops through neg.
lect on the' part of the husband. Many
'men Imagine that- once they are mar
ried they; can drop" all the little atten
tions and the delightful compliments
which so charmed their wives In, the chart
ing days. They show a tack of tho out
ward and visible sign of appreciation,
without which the average woman grows
discontented.' This' discontent may breed
a roving spirit, and, .falling to find appre
ciation and admiration at; home, the fool
ish wife may seek lt( abroad.
.
' She meets.' someiirtan who wilt flatter
"her and make much, or Iter, and, while
lior affections may. still centre around her
home and. husband,.' she will so compro
mise herself With the "other person"
whom' she imagines appreciate her thor
oughly, that her happiness will be event
ually wrecked. ...
The w'6ma!n,;who 'possesses this Inces
sant craving for homage and adulation
should strive to check It before It con
quers lfer better self - and her better
judgment. ' Otherwise alio may find her
self "an '.object iOf Ity and public gossip
rather flia"n'.an object of admiration and
attention. . ' "

Christmas Candy
A Useful Suggestion
Thebasis of almost every French candy
Is fondant. This Is the personal Inven
tion of a famous French confectioner, but
tt can be successfully made by any care
ful American cook. The schoolgirl- who
wants to entertain her young friends by
a oandy pull will enjoy the fondant party
much more, once she has learned to make
the candy herself.
Here Is the Teclpe: Add two cups of
water and a pinch of cream tartar to one
pound ot granulated sugar. Stir this until
the sugar Is all -dissolved, and no longer,
rut the mlxturo 'over the fire In a granite
pan, and while it Is' boiling remove every
crystal which appears on the side of the
pan. Let this boil for about six minutes,
then draw .It back from the flame. Dip
a fork In the syrup and then plunge It
in cold water. ' If It forms a soft ball.
It is done.
Then this. mu,at be turned out on a plat
ter very quickly. Do riot, scrape the
sides, ot the pan.'- When the'fondant looks
thready across the top turn the.. edges
Into the centre. Do this until, the mixture
Is about. blood heat, then .beat with a
wooden spoon until It begins to crumble
Turn this' out on a board aAt knead tt
until it becomes a soft, 'smooth mass.
This can .be1 packed In a bowl, .covered
with oiled paper and kept until needed.
It will- keep for a very; long time and
may be used for bars, loaves, dipping and
patties.
Slowly knead ihe fondant after you
have taken It out of the bowl so as to
keep it all In one ball and a' 'smooth,
creamy surface. As French candles nr,
nearly all hand made, you .have almost
unlimited opportunities for originality In
coloring, decoration, flavoring, etc. The
clever amateur will find a good chance
here to make the little extra and always
necessary spending money.
Toilet Tips
Six Sensible Hints for Every Woman
- First, dray hair can lie "avoided," by' a
jar of vaseline. Every night give tbe head
three minutes' massage; once a weeH
smear the tips of the fingers with good
yellow vaseline, and rub thoroughly Into
the roots of the hair.
Those Inclined to have clly hair should
afterwards dust the hair with powdered'
ataroh, an ordinary kind will do, and
brush out Tftth clean brushes.
Ssoond. Chapped hands during the win
ter are often, the lot of tha grrt or-woman
who has to spend a portion of, her tlnn
over the. sink.
Keep a little jar of oatmeal handy, and
after washing and drying the hands, rub
the oatmeal well Into the akin and dust
off. This dries and protects the skin.
Third. Tired, or strained eyes spoil a
woman's appearance quicker than any
thing else.
Guard against excessive machine work,
or reading In a bad light. A solution of
bcracta, powder and warm water applied
to the eye In an eye-bath, or gently
bathed Into the eyes, la very soothing

Fourth. Healthy fiTt roalte ajl;ther dif

U)ey ache and' are tired,- soak them in

Fifth. 'Well marked eyebrows giro the

THE EXTRAVAGANT WOMAN
How She Decided to Curc Herself
The country girl and her city cousin
were trying to press their, way In and out
among the Christmas shoppers.4 'Every
where about them ,w'ere -attractive dis
plays of leather goods,-.' ribbons,' gowns,
jewels, wonderful ' furnishings for .home
and country place. The .country maiden,
sighed as she' looked -at; all the tempting
display.
"Oh, dear, I wish I didn't have to .look
at so many pretty things; they positively
make me peevish. I'd like to" buy every
thing I see. They're so .beautjful."
"Yes. dearie, and so expensive," added
the" city girl. "You know how 'well all
these 'things .look, but you' have no Idea
how much they really cost."
"Why, look -at that' perfectly stunning
camisole; that isn't expensive. It only
costs S3. We really can't pass It by"
"So you're caught, are. you, my 'Httte
cousin? I thought your 'thrifty country
spirit would save you, but evidently sucht
.Is not the case. The fact that things are
cheap seemingly so, anyhow only helps
along the high .cost of-ltvlng. 'I;look"at
a collar I like for 50 cents and then go
right 'to work arid fall n love with one
for J2. Of course, I know U'sirldlculous,
but I buy the expensive one In the-end."
"Well, that's tha one 'Idea of trade, my
dear. Folks aren't In business 'for fun,
you know. They want.money. It's their
business-to get our money, and they cer
tainly .succeed!- There 'are so.'many pretty
things which, cos t.juafk little more than
you are prepared to pay; . Anil you buy
them just the, same, just as 'the wise
storekeeper' knows'- you 'Will.

"But, wo already have that," said the

"Then; we.'re-going irlght home and we
.won't .buy. another thing until we really
need It." And you'd better close your
charge -account, too."
"What? Never!" gasped the other.

It, 1914
how the college
girl spent Christmas
"Goo'd-by all, I hope you have a happy,
liappy'Chrlstmast I envy you going home
so nutckly. Just think, you can sleep In
your -own comfortable homes tonight,
most of you I Well, good-by, Delia. Give
my love to your mother. Tell her I'll
come -to visit her at Easter."
atotlle stood on the campus, waving her
handkerchief lo her departing friends.
Taxis, drove up to the college and took
their fluffy, excited burdens to the station.
She turned back, feeling rather lonesome.
The picture of her low-roofed Irish home
made the tears start to her eyes. She read
her mall.
"Holly, dear," her mother wrote, "you
won't be with us this year, but I know
your heart will be In Ireland with the old
folks. Anyhow, I want you to do Just as
you used to do at home. Don't go to bed
on Christmas night unless you can say
you have made some ono happy."
"That's something to think of," said
Molly, as she slipped Into her hat and
coat. She took tho car to the settlement
where, tho college girls had a makeshift
school, for poor children. Hero the little
mothers brought their restless charges;
while they learned sewing and cleanliness,-
the babies were fed, washed and
titled out.
"Qqod morning. Miss Molls'. What are
you going to' give us for Christmas?"
asked a little girl, shyly. "And what Is
Santa' going to bring you?"
"I don't know, dearie; but what do
A New Christmas Suggestion
You probably wouldn't believe that a
quarter or a yard of scrim would mako
a charming series of Christmas gifts, but
such1 a feat wss accomplished by ono
clever-girl. "You see," she said, "father
died In tho year and I Just hftd to econo
mize' on something. The younger children
had to continue their schooling whatever
happened) and I had to buy things" which
wo couldn't do without, such as shoes,
cdats,' eatables, etc So I made up my
mind, to keep all my gifts within a cer
tain -limit When I found that even this
wouldn't cover my expenses, I began to
buy them In bulk, as It were. So I hit
upon1 the Idea ot tho boudoir cushion.
These dainty little presents are awfully
easy' to make at home. Cut youif mate
rial the size of the cushion you wish to
make. Now measure off a one-Inch hem,
draw six threads, count 49 stitches to
the .centre. A stitch,, you know, Is two
threads each way. If you are any good
at embroidery, a charming touch of color
may'be added In the shape of a wreath.
Thls'i may be done In the' popular ribbon
work, cross stitch or plain hand work.
You' must take particular care to find the
centre when you begin to embroider. Thir
teen stitches from that will be the centre
of the flower on any side. You can work
tho flowers In pink, with yellow centres,
and the leaves In a pretty shade of dull
green. In partl.colored ribbon this Is
stunning.
Of course.) the under side Is made Just
like the top.-tmly plain. Tress each plece
separntely under a damp cloth when
finished, and lace together with pale,
flesh-coloied ptnk ribbon, tied In bows
at the' corners. Use a rather coarse quaH
Ity of. scrim and the result will be .better.
Another novel pln-cushlon Is made of
Vale pink linen, with pure white em
broidery. Take two pieces of linen nine
Inches square and mako the usual Inch
wide -hem on It. About a quarter ot an
Inch from the hem draw several threads.
Hemstitch on either side to mako a. nar
row beading for a ribbon. When you
draw this through your cushion tt Is kept
securely inside. A monogram can be
worked In the centre with very little
trouble and practically no expense. A
quartor of a yard of linen, S3 Inches wide,
Is enough to make two cushions. The
cushion nroper 1b made of white cambric
stuffed with sawdust. i
Economy Hints
Instead ot meat provide a good, nour- i
Ishlng soup for dinner,
Order good beef bones, add to them two '
quarts of water, and let simmer very
gently for several hours.
Next morning take oft the fat, add car
rots, turnips, onions, celery, or a mixture
of any vegetables you happen to have
on ha.nd, and simmer again till the vege
tables are done.
Then season with pepper and salt, add
some dumplings that have been boiled
(separately, and you will get a really
nourishing dinner ut quite small cost
As- a change add pearl barley or rice
at tne same time as the vegetables, and
make, no dumplings.
; Pretty Christmas Gifts
Little pots of growing ferns from the
woods make delightful Christmas gifts.
Of course, only the hardy varieties of
ferns 'can be found at this season.

you want Santa, to bring you?" returned
tho girl as she slipped on hr aprom
"I want him to bring my mamma back
to life," said the child.
"What do you mean', dear? Where Is
your mother. Come, well go to eee
her now,"
They hurried through the squalid
streets to n, house whore a woman lay,
pate and motionless, but alive, on a
blanket placed on the floor, A crowd
of weeping children and somo curious
neighbors were in the room.
"Here, get n. doctor, lltcyl You go
for a. nurse right away, Tony," said tha
girl, pushing two of the children toward
the door,
"Nurse cost money," said tho boy,
oulktly.
An hour passed by before medical aid
came. Molly rushed about, borrowed a
cot from the woman downstairs (after
leaving a deposit of about four times
Its value for a guaranteo of its return),
made some hot broth and chafed the
cold hands. The sick woman remained
unconscious.
The doctor worked almost alt ut'ght
over his patient. "Starved and ex
hausted," he explained briefly. .Tust as
the first rays of Christmas dawn red
dened tho sky tho woman moved her eye
lids and turned her head townrd the
window.
"Maraya. whero aro you," sh said
faintly. The sleeping child did not
answer.
"Miss Molly! Why, what aro you doing
here, and where did this lovely bed come
from? Oh, my dear, my dear; Uod bless
you," alio sobbed as she held the girl's
hand to her trembling lips.
