PRIZE SUGGESTIONS, HOUSEKEEPING HINTS AND SPRING FASHIONS FOR EVERY WOMiti
THE NAGGING
HUSBAND
ELLEN
How He Spoils
The average man is nrmty convinced
thai tinagltig Is nu attribute entirely
peculiar to woman. In fact, a great many
men are strong In the belief that ecry
daughter of live la nt heart a born ting
ger. They regard the most angelically
Mspoed woman ni a sort of mnsciuernder
who la hiding her real, snappy disposition
tinder a thin vencer of charm and at
tractiveness. "Sho's only trying to catch a husband,"
they wilt say skeptically, "It Isn't In tho
nature of womankind to be so saccharine-
ly sweet!"
Tho man who talks In this way Is cer
tainly a born nagger himself. And It Is
qulto surprising to realize how many men
at e born naggers. They themselves would
bo most (surprised of all. If tho fact were
brought home to them. Tho pity Is that
women nrn loo backward In pointing out
tho falling.
The husband who nags la a person
Browing Just a little too prevalent of late
years. Ho doesn't realize how disagree
ablo he Is, of course. If It wcic pointed
out to him, ho would probably say that
It was ii free country, and that surely a
man had a right to express his opinion In
his own house.
But that Is Just where tho born naggor
makes a great mistake. No one has a
right to express an opinion If It Is going
to causa pain and unhapplncss to others.
Tho people who aro always bragging
about tho wonderful power of free speech
aro nearly alwaya sclllsli and thought
less. For freedom of speech too often
means the opportunity to bo rude and
overhearing In conduct and opinions.
I
Tho husband who Is alas seeking
to assert his authority In trifling, petty
ways Is a great trial to his wife. He will
como poking around tho kitchen at the
oddest times, upsetting the temper of the
cook, hindering cullnavy operations,
throwing the whole place Into a perfect
commotion, and all to no purpose what
ever. "Why on earth Isn't dinner ready?"
he will storm. "Here am I slaving ull
day long down In the city so that 1 may
have a decent, well-managed house, and
s. dinner waiting for me when I como
home at night and I get neither the
one nor the other. Disgraceful, I call It!
It's enough to drive a man to drink!"
For the bagging husband Is always a
bully, rest assured of that. He Is never
so happy as when he Is Intimidating some
feminine thing whom he considers weaker
than himself.
Another curious fact about the nag
ging husband Is that he Is always quite
pleasant to outsiders. "What a perfectly
charming man Mr. So-and-So 1st" Is tho
general verdict. But ah! If outsiders only
know hint as his tired, bullied little wife
knows him!

CHILDREN'S CORNER
A Venturesome Tulip
SEVERAL tulip bulbs were burled last
fall deep down In a nice warm bed.
Around and under them was rich black
earth, over them warm straw and leaves
and sometimes even snow. So they felt
no cold winds and the Ico and sleet that
nipped tho trees and hedges couldn't
reach down to them.
Once In a while during tho long winter
they wakened and said a word of greet
ing to eacn other, but most of the time
they simply dozed and rested, getting
strength for the quick growth of the
spring.
But a day came when the Bnow melted
When he teas nearly frozen the kind
gardener saw Aim and covered Mm
up with leaves and carpet.
nd the water, warm with the bright
bunshlne, seeped down through the leaves
and straw.
The ground began to set moist and
warm. Instead of hard and cold, and the
tulips began to wake up.
"Good morning," said the one w'no
would some day be yellow, "when will
you climb up to the sunshine with me?"
"I will some time," said the tulip who
-would be -white, "but I'm not In a hurry.
I am very comfortable here."
"I'll so with you In a few days," said
tho tulip who. would some day be red;
"but I think it wiser to wait and be
jure about the warm weather."
"Oh fiddlesticks!" exclaimed the yellow
tulip, "I wouldn't be so 'fraldy.' Can't
you feel the warm auruhlne? Don't you
know that sprlDS U here?"
"Sprlwr may be here all right." said
the red tulip, "but a few days' wait will
do we no harm arid I'm not anxloua to

Home Happiness
The husband who nags will hot con
fine himself to any one subject for criti
cism. Everything that his wife docs or
docun't do will come under tho censuro
of his tongue.
"It Is really very hard to please
George," said n sad-faced wife the other
day. "For no matter what t do he
always finds fault. I'm suro 1 try hard
enough to ptcaso him, but it Isn't a
scrap of use.
"First of all, he started nasjrlns about
expense. '1 don t see how on earth ott
can afford to wear these pretty clothes.
Mary,' he would always say. 'It's pretty
hard that my earnings shoiild nil go for
tho decking out of your person.'
"In vain I assured him that I had mado
theso clothes at homo at odd times, and
that they wcro really nulte Inexpensive.
It was a caso of out of the frying pan
Into the lire. For although he ceased
storming about waste or money, ha
started In about tho waste of time. 'Von
can surely find something belter to do
than sitting nil day long making these
fal-do-rals,' he giumbtrd.
"And o I took him at his word and
gavo up wearing pretty, dainty ribbons
and all the little accessories that can
Improve one's appearance so much. I
thought that ho would bp pleased with the
transformation; I certainly looked as if
t never wasted u moment on dress and
that nai what was obviously wanted.
"But apparently 1 was mistaken. 'For
heaven's sake, Mary,' cried my husband,
'whut In tho name of all that's awful
have you been doing to jourself to look
such n perfect scarecrow? It's pretty
hard on n man to slave on, jcar In year
out, co that his wlfo can look smart and
nltractlvo and then come homo to Jlnd
her looking like a walking ragbag. Go
right upstairs at once and put on some
thing decent!' "
Another woman then took up the tale.
"t cured my husband entirely of tho nag
ging habit," said she triumphantly. "And
I am proud of tho fact. You see, It takes
two to make n quarrel, although It only
takes one to nag. AVoll, my husband was
a regular nagger. He'd nag about every
thing under tho sun the food, the
weather, tho rent of tho house, the sum
mer vacation, the giving of Christmas
present!", tho color of tho wallpaper, the
shade of my new suit.
"So I determined sto cure him once and
for nil. I didn't wait for hhn to begin,
but I started to nag him In Just tho same
unreasonable way that he'd nag me. Ho
was utterly amazed! 'What on earth has
come over you?' ho would say.
'"I'm acting Just the way jou always
act,' I answered.
"And he was so utterly sui prised that It
quite cured him!"
tulips who are waiting down there In
the dark."
And he took a deep breath of sun
shine and grew a whole Inch that same
day.
N'ow that was nil very well while tho
sun tfione. But tho next day clouds
covered tho sky and old Mr. North Wind
blew black to see about something he
had forgotten".
Then tho venturesome yellow tulip was
rold, oh! so cold! He wished a hundcrd
times that he was back down in tho
ground. But he couldn't go back! That's
one queer thing about living neither peo
ple nor flowers can ever go back and
start over!
So lie stood there and shivered and
didn't grow u speck.
Along taward evening when he was
nearly frozen the kind gardener saw him
and covered him up with leaves and
carpet.
"Ugh! that feels good," he exclaimed
as the warm coverings protected him, "It
1 ever live through this, I'll never start
first again, never never never."

LEGHORN, CHIFFON AND ROSES
SEEN IN
Fichus nro back again, even on young
gills' dresses.
Tho sleeves on tho newest Hprlng coats
aro long and fairly tight, but easy at tho
shoulder.
Chiffon and lace gowns aro greatly im
proved by a velvet glidle, cither of tho
same or a contrasting shade.
White satin blouses aro very fashion
able Just now. When worn with ono of
tho military suits they look stunning.
They havo a high soft collar and dull
gold buttons up tho front.
If you want to give your new spring
coslumo a vivid and rather blzarro look,
have a two-toned striped waistcoat mado
and wear It with a full skirt.
Cream, whlto and buff aro the most
popular colors In linen dresses, nnd many
are seen In tho South with filet laco trim
ming. A pendant which hangs from the neck

white edge. Is very chic with a laco
blouse.
All the new gowns for formal wear
havo the square-cut neck with a standing
ruff at the back.
A very attractive blouse seen recently
had a deep V-shaped shoulder yoke of
broderlo Anglalse over rose chiffon; the
rest of the blouse was Just plain whlto
voile.
The stock collars shown In a Chestnut
street shop havo a narrow band of color
Just beneath tho wide fluffy frill.
In the Kitchen
Oatmeal Is tho commonest nnd most
abused of nil the cereals. Nothing could
be more nutritious than oatmeal, as It
contains more fat, protein and mineral
matter than any of the few starch prod
ucts. Theso serve to supply good firm
bono structure, red blood corpuscles and
stimulate the activities of the system.
You should havo three objects when
you cook, It you cook In a scientific
manner. First, to sterilize the material,
to Improve the flavor nnd appearance, and
to produce changes In tho structure so
that tho digestive Juices -will act upon
tho nutrients themselves.
All cereals havo a thick, coating of cel
lulose or fiber, under which tho nutritive
qualities aro to be found. This thick
coating Is ordinarily Impervious to the
action of the digestive Juices, unless In
somo manner It Is removed. The only
satisfactory way to do this Is by long
and careful cooking. The effect la to,
break down these hard little shells, and
the starch grains, too, thus aiding the
digestive processes.
If It can bo managed even by going
outsldo the kitchen have the oatmeal
steamed, not boiled. Eight hours at least
should be allowed for cooking nil cereals,
If the result is meant to be digestible.
A great many manufacturers advertise
the fact that they havo crushed and
steamed their cereal. This is not enough.
Some day try adding from one to two
hours on to tho 20 minutes recommended
on the package and note the difference
in flavor.
Don't serve your cereals as If they were
soup. They should be firm, so that each
cell can expand to Its greatest capacity.
Measure the boiling water and put It
over the fire In the double boiler. Then
add tho required amount of salt, and
when the water Is boiling, add the oat
meal. Cook this directly over the fire
for Ave or ten minutes, until, you find
your substance is thickening. Never stir
oat cereals, it makes them mushy, A
ecum will not form on the water If you
cover the dtth while It la cooking. Tit
member that the more crude fiber there
Is In the cereal, the longer It must cook,
and that whole grains require more time
than cracked ones.

Oranges as a Beautifier
Do you have the juice of an orange for
your morning meal? So many people
realize the great benefit of oranges as
a tonic that the sale of this fruit has
increased enormously In the last few
years. No breakfast to complete without
It Even milk and eggs are dividing their
honors as a health giver with the orange.
And the best way to take a raw egg Is
to break it in a glass half full of orange
Juice.
The newest arrival In the household
good world Is the orange press, Its up
rights are attached to a sturdy wooden
oae. the orange i placed in a squeezer
' in the centre and u pressed by hand
I I'nderneath is placed a. cup to catch the
' juice, which is strained as it goes out of

THE SHOPS
If your new spring bonnet Is to bo
fashionable, it will tako time to select
It. A smartly gowned woman Is fault
lessly nttlrcd from tho tip of her chic
little hat to tho end of her gattcrcd
boot. You feel that no detail has been
neglected, that every feature of her cos
tume has received mlnuto and thought
ful attention. Tho most Important Item
Is her hat.
A poorly selected hat can spoil tho
effect of tho best looking suit that a
tailor ever made. Women should tako
plenty of time In deciding what Is most
becoming; Just because a hat Is a pretty
color, for lnstnncc, It may not bo n
proof that It becomes you.
There aro plenty of hats for every one,
and this season's styles offer variety
enough for the most fastidious of women.
They range' In slzo from close-fitting
llttlo turbans to broadbrlmmed "cart
wheels," as tho mero man calls them.
Ono thing is certain, and that Is, that
to bo In stylo you must wear your hat
at an angle. Tho unpardonable sin Is to
wear It straight on your head. Tip It
back, front, or on tho sides. If you will,
but It must have a fashionable tilt.
Trimmings follow more or Icbs orig
inal lines Just nt present. Some hats
aro low and flat, like tho proverbial pan
cake, nnd others, tower far above the
fair wearer's head. Cherry, American
Beauty, rose or ruby red aro coming to
replace tho all-black or all-white hat.
Sailors aro In evidence, too, and stream
ers dangle from most of tho now models.
"Forty Winks"
By an Experienced Mntron
If wo only realized tho value of tho
afternoon 'MO winks" we should be better
In health and looks. Of course, for the
girl in business an afternoon nap Is out
of the question, but there aro thousands
of busy housewives who could snatch a
few minutes' rest when the hardest part
of their day is over.
A famous physician onco said that If It
was only realized how valuable an after
noon sleep was, legislation would bo In-
iruuutcu io eniorce it. This, of course
Is an extreme view, but that a few min
utes' rest in tho afternoon has a bene
ficial effect cannot be denied, it allows
the brain to rest and the muscles to re
lax. ,
There Is one young matron of my ac
quaintance -who alwaya looks charmingly
fresh and healthy. I asked her one day
for her recipe, nnd this Is what she told
me:
"When I first married," she said, "r
used to keep on with my work nil day
long, and if I was not busy in tho house
I was out visiting. The consequence was
that I 'ran down' and was always pale
so I paid a visit to the doctor. I ex
plained everything to him. and he told
mo that I had been working too hard,
and that the best thing I could do would
be to rest every afternoon for half an
hour. I laughed at the advice, but when
I told Jim he InBloted that I should
carry out Instructions.
"And I did," she continued. "In quite
a short while I felt ever so much better
I lost that tired, languid feeling, and
felt brighter and happier."
"Have you any special rules?" I asked
her.
"No," she replied. "I simply throw
myself down on the bed and allow my
body to assume; an easy, restful position.
If I feel aleepy I doze off. If, on the
contrary, I feel like reading, then I read.
But the rest I always get, no matter what
happens."
I can vouch now for the truth of what
he told me, because I follow out the
plan myself. No only has my health
benefited, but my looks also. The 1 1 red
looking lines have disappeared from my
face, and I put the Improvement solely
down to ray "V winks" in the afternoon.

strenuous existence, playing tennis and
golf every day and dancing every after
noon and evening, besides a hundrcd-nnd-one
othor things that fill up every odd
moment.
Wo have got to know n number of In
teresting people, nnd made several real
friends. Tho worst part of visiting a place
for only two wcckB Is that by tho tlmo
ono has Just become friendly with nil
one's neighbors it Is tlmo to go home
again!
My Irish friend Is very entertaining. Ho
plays golf magnlflcontly, and Is giving mo
valuablo lossons every day. Elinor makes
fun of Iris nccent (ho has tho richest Irish
brogue I ever hoard In nil my life), nnd
sho says his hair Is tho reddest thing sho
has ever beheld; but ho Is such a thor
oughly nlco fellow that ono Boon gots
over theso small disadvantages. In fact,
onco you get accustomed to tho broguo It
becomes qulto fascinating; nnd, as for tho
color of his hnlr. It suits his stylo of looks
and disposition exactly.
"You had better bo careful, Dorothy,"
Hints for a Spring Costume
Hero aro a fow hints for tho girl who
would look her best nt nil times. So
many girls complain that they aro always
buying clothes, and yet they never look
well. Tho fault lies not bo much In tho
clothes themselves, as In tho way they aro
worn. Somo women 'could buy a new
gown on Monday, and In less than 21
hours, it would look ns If It had been
worn for two seasons. They Just don't
know tho first principles of good dressing,
and If you happen to bo ono of theso.
nnd know it, tho following hints may
hints
show you whero you mako
a mlstnlcc.
Tho first precaution
is for the stout
woman. Sho should
bo careful not to
overdress. Long, plnln linos aro best
for her, with very llttlo drapery, and that
placed In tho proper plncc. Don't affect
tho fluffy pleated collars, even If you nro
young they will mako your neck look
dreadfully thick. A long ahawl collar,
which lies smoothly on the nhoulders
nnd hangs In a long end In front, will
look better.
If you aro Inclined to bo nt nil sallow,
don't try to wear any of tho sand or putty
shades. It will provo most unsatisfactory,
as those shades require an almost perfect
complexion. Few women take this Into
consideration, nnd tho result Is useless
oxpendlturo nnd that most discouraging
Bensatlon tho knowledge that you aro
wearing something which spoils your
looks. It you nro buying a suit or gown
for long Bervlce, chooso a conservative,
dark color. Havo It as fashionable In
cut as your purso will allow, but you will
soon get tired of It If you chooso an
cxtremo color.
If you aro Inclined to be short, don't
adopt stripes which run around llko tho
hoops of a barrel, or big, glaring plaids.
You can Imagine tho result but many
women wear thom Just tho snme. rialds
and stripes aro better on tho tall woman,
as they have a tendency to mako tho
short woman look shorter.
Another sight which is frequently seen
on tho streets today Is a woman with a
broad, fat face, wearing ono of theso
little round hats tipped raklshly and
ridiculously on tho front of her forehead.
Tho height of the ridiculous la attained
when she effects n storn bow and coquet
tish streamers In tho back. It may sound
exaggerated, but watch the streets when
you go out again. A rather largo hat,
trimmed high, will look better on the
stout, short woman. If Bho happens to
bo tall and stout, sho should not wear
the high trimming, A broad, low effect
13 better.
Love's Kiss
Kiss me but once, and In that space su
premo My wholo dark life shall quiver to an
end,
Sweet Death shall see my heart and com
prehend That lite Is crowned, and In an endless
gleam
Will fix tho color of the dying stream.
That Life and Death may meet as friend
' with friend
An endless Immortality to blend;
Kiss me hut once, and so shall end my
dream.
And then lave heard me and bestowed
his kiss,
And straight I cried to Death: I will not
die!
Earth Is so fair when ono remembers
this;
Life is but Just begun! Ah, come not yet!
The very world smiles up to kiss the
sky.
And In tho grave one may forget forget.

Soup Secrets
Soup cannot bo made In a hurry.
All remnants of meat, bones, bacon
and pieces of every description should be
used to make stock, which la the founda
tion of all soups.
Stock must be frequently skimmed dur
ing the early stage of the proceedings.
Never allow stock or soup to cool In
the'Baucepan. The liquid bhould be poured
off and drained Into an earthenware
bowl.
The bones should bo boiled for two or
three hours and all the scum removed
before the vegetables are added, which
should be simmered until tender,
Do not overboil soup, as this bpoIIs the
flavor.
