Sentimentality of Man Causes Him to Spend

AJ-RETTT little Benllmcnt that men
for years and years have attributed
' io 'nron.eh Is tho superior spirituality that
they posses oyer tho gross materialistic
1 creatures. Therefore, when they
wish to express a profound and undying
affection for ono of the fragile dears what
4o they do but go forth and squander a
half week's salary for the rarest blossoms
that a flower emporium has to offer.
Testerday my friend Mary Blank re
ceived one of thcao overwhelming floral
tributes. Mary looks like a piece of Dres
den. She is the sort that Inspires floral
tributes.
Said Mary on opening the box of won
tterful masses of exotic blooms:
"The poor slmpl Ten dollars' worth, at
least, and mo dying for a silk sweater!"
Into the corner of the room was hurled
the card of tho lovelorn swain. Judging
from tho pout on her faco, one would
have thought that deadly Insult had been
given her Instead of tho most beautiful
' of all gifts.
Instinctively, however, Mary treated
. tho posies with much gentlonoss and
artistry as she arrangod them In vases.
The love of flowers Is Inherent In women,
but the love of flno clothes Is stronger.
' Pew women would hesltato In choosing
between a silk Bweater and a bouquet of
roses. By a queer quirk of femlnlno na
ture, however, they would have In their
hearts a softer feeling for tho man who
1 sent them the roses than for tho giver
et the sweator did Madame Grundy per-
i mlt the giving of such personal gifts as
articles of wearing apparel.

MARION HARLAND'S CORNER
Easy Way to Was Flowcrg
(fr "wolIIiD say In answer to Reader's
JL Inquiry that an, easy way to wax
flowers Is to dip them by tho stem Into
melted paraflln, such as Is used on the tops
of Jelly glasses. When It Is like water,
fill all the cracks with tho paraflln, but do
not let It get lumpy, as that will spoil the
clearness. Set them In a cool place until
hard. They will keep a lone time If not
broken.
Paste That Sticks
1 read TUtra F. A. M.'s request for a.
paste that sticks' recipe. The one I send
Is good: "Wet two tablespoonfuls of starch
or cornstarch with a llttlo cold water; then
pour on a quart of boiling water and boll
for three minutes. It should be of the con
sistency of laundry starch. By adding two
drops of oil of wlntergreen It will keep in
definitely. Vaseline bottles make good paste
receptacles. v T
Apple Custard Pie
"I saw a request for apple custard pie
with grated apples. This may be what Is
wanted: One cup of grated apples, one
cup of milk, two eggs, sugar to suit taste.
Orate the apples one at a time; keep
sprinkling them with sugar to keep them

the eggs and one white. Add the milk. Put
Into a single pie crust and bake. Use the
ether white for meringue. E. C. a.
Cleaned Painted Wall
To A. I. B. Two years ago I learned
how to clean a painted wall. Soap and
water will not do the work, nor coal oil.
I used ono and one-half cans of scouring
powder. This web sifted upon a soft cloth
and then I gave tho walls a good rubbing.
Tho kitchen had not been cleaned for bIx
years. This treatment will not spoil the
paint, ao far as I used It, I M. L."
How to Remove Wallpaper
"Some one asked how to remove wall
paper. My way Is this: Go over the paper
with a largo brush dipped Into a thin
pasta of flour and water, wetting every hit
of the paper. Let this alone for a while;
then strip off tho paper, which should yield
easily. There will be no dust or dirt and
the strips may be packed In a basket, dried
and burned Immediately, for sanitary rea

about fifty years ago. Perhaps It may be
the one referred to noma time ago;

Origin of "John Bull"
"In answer to the Inquiry as to the ori
gin of John Bull: Every country has a
nickname and la represented in pictures by
an animal. The British lion Is the animal
that stands for England, and John Bull Is
It owner and master. The lion is the
country ; John Bull tar the nation. The name
ef John. Bull comes from a work written by
John Arbuthnot, a witty doctor and writer,
a sweat friend of Swift and Pope. He was
torn In 1T, In Scotland, and died In 1735.
The sketch he wrote dealt with the political
aJtslra of Europe at the time, and the coun
tries were mads to appear as men and
wofafft, .England was John Bull and Queen
Aana was Mrs. Bull. The church was Mr.
Viall'a, mother, Scotland was John Bull's
wUttr Peg. England, the nation and coun
try, was made to appear like a good-natured
man, but not without faults. As roast beef
as4 plum pudding are the national dishes,
the name of Bull answered well. John was
town to ba an honest, plain-dealing man,
Mttragecu. anJ rather hot tempered. Ha
was supposed .to be always ready to meet
the Wench Klag with any sort of weapon,
la araest or In Play. Ha was difficult to
! wHfcf cPola!ly If any one tried to
Hltli' him. Treated with kindness and a,
ttUU la4tey, he could be led like a child.

sentiment. Therefore I was not at all
surprised to see Mary sit down at her
desk and almost chew tho end off nor pen
In her endeavor to coin sweet phrases ex
presslvo of her Joy and appreciation of
the exquisite flowers sent to her Had
she been really honest, her note would
have read Uko this:
"Dear Tom I think you were a perfect
old goop to go and pay $10 for roses and
orchids when I stand In much greater
need of a pair of golf shoes and a dinky
now sweater. But I lovo you because
you're such a fool over mo that you will
spend money for something that will last
only two days, but which you believe Is
expresslvo of my delicately spiritual na
ture. It's all a mistake, but I'm glad you
don't know It. It positively sickens me
to reflect that had It not been for your
sentimentality and convention's Imposi
tions, I might have had that sweater; but
If you had sent mo tho sweator, I'd have
loved It and hated you. I can't explain.
It's my nature. MARY."
It Is tho grafters of the sex femlnlno
that Madame Qrundy'n rule of "flowers,
candles and books only If you're not on
gaged to her" hits most hard. They like
men for what they can "get out of thorn"
to uso a current phrase. Emotion doos
not onter Into their consideration. Brace
lets, rings, wrist watches constitute their
Idea of what such plunder should consist
of. Men who give only flowers and candles
aro struck off tholr list of cllgtblos.
But tho wholesome woman and she who
has an eyo to her futuro happiness mar
ries tho man who sends tho flowers, for
a sentimental man Is tho salt of the
earth. M'LISS.

If white shoes are powdered before they

It Is rumored that since Victorian gowns
have coma Into style ngnln, and we hno
gone back to the modified wnsp wnlst and
dropped-shoulder evening gown, the next
stop In fashion's procession Is the Vic
torian coltture. Few of us can boast family
portraits which show grandmother In all
her glory, with corkecrow curl"? and hair
stiffly parted In the middle, but we havo
seen enough of the Victorian nnd mld-VIc-torlan
ladles to realize that tho coiffure
pictured Is not for us.
. It might bo adapted fo pretty "debs"
whoso piquant feature- and youthful color
ing are sufficiently attractive to carry off
this seere style, but moat older women
will have to forego tho sincere flattery of
Imitating tho Victorian ladles. Then, too,
wo have no gentlemen with wnsp waists
and frilly Jabots to act ns a picturesque
background.
Curls have bcin launfthed successfully by
hairdressers, because they nre pretty. A
charming corkscrew Is a worthy addition
to any coiffure. Uut we don't want to wear
them bobbing In threes over our ears, a la

1916 girl knows what becomes her, nnd she
takes the best of every stylo to provo It,

Tlrst of nil, I should ndvlse you against
middy blouses. They will mako you look
stouter than you really nro. In my opin
ion, you nre too young for corsets, but
should wear something to hold your flesh In

Wear dresses of soft materials and

Never accentuate your waist line. You
may wear stripes; Indeed, I ndvlso you to
wear them, providing you have your frocks
made with them running lengthwise.
Never have any of your frocks trimmed
with banding running horizontally.
Dear Madam Are aunbonnetfl still to be had

Bottle Shelf
Every house should have n shelf some
where that can be used exclusively for
storing bottles. A bottle of linseed oil nnd
lime water should be on the shelf for emer
gency use If somebody gets n severe burn.
A bottle ot turpentine Is not so necessary,
but Is very useful In removing rust from
'metal, paint from clothes, setting delicate
colors and to mix with linseed oil for polish
ing furniture. In another bottle keep sifted
plaster of parls. FIo cents' worth will fill
a pint Jar nnd Is Indispensable for mending
broken china, glass and eatthernware.
The plaster of patls Is mixed nt once
with the whlto of nn egg nnd applied to the
broken surfaces, which must be held firmly
together Until the plnster sets. This nlso
repairs lamp tops and other metal articles.
The one particular bottle that Is most
used In the household Is the ammonia bottle.
This may be purchased at any groccrB, but
the stronger grade Is to be had from the
druggist. Two tablenpoonfuls of It will
soften a pailful of tho hardest water nnd
so saes norip, brushes nnd cloths, paying
for the Initial expenditure several times
over.
Nickeled objects nre usually hard to pol
ish, but they can be kept In apple-plo order
by using ammonia on them. There Is noth
ing better for pollihlng mirrors, silver nnd
unvarnished woods It removes the nrnlsh
from highly finished woods, of course. Am
monia Is neither exploslvo nor Inflammable
nnd docs not Injure the hands. In tho bath
It Is tonic and cleansing; In tho laundry
It takes the dirt out of the clothes In no
time.
The second renlly Important bottle should
be labeled poison and placed In the highest
nnd mont unattainable part of the cup
board. It'ehould ba filled with oxalic acid
crystals In a half-pint bottle of water. Keep
this corked nnd labeled. To use, wet stains
with tho solution and hold the fabric,
stretched tight between tho hands, over a
kettle of steaming water. The Btaln will
disappear, but tho fabric must be rinsed
right nway In clear water or your goods
will be eaten through by tho strong acid.
Dip In ammonia and rlnso ngaln.
In cleaning brasses wet a woolen cloth In
tho solution and rub the dull metal with a
firm stroke until you havo covered every
part. Now plunge tho copper or brass In
hot water nnd suds nnd polish with a good
powder. Any stain that can be removed by
salt and lemon and hard rubbblng will como
out with this treatment.
The last bottle Is a handful of steel wool.
This may bo bought at any paint store and
Is Invaluable In removing spots from tho
kitchen floor, cooking utensils, table, etc.
It may bo used time nnd again, simply rinse
In water and ammonia after soiling.
Oatmeal With Cheese
Put a quart of water, boiling, nnd a
tablespoonful of 'salt over n quick fire.
Gradually stir In two cups of rolled oats.
Contlnuo to stir until tho mlxturo thickens
somewhat, then cover and let cook over
boiling water for two hours. When about
ready to serve, stir In a cupful of grated
choesa and a tablespoonful of butter, nnd
nt the last moment, before putting on the
table, fold In an egg beaten light Sono
with cream.
