'''"I refef to the popular attltudo toward

mbng women a few years ngo was
Tjooktd upon as a practical joke Tho
rgenernl cry that wo could not buy some
1 thing for nothing lod thrifty housewives
f to look upon tho bargain counter with
4 suspicion. Today this attltudo Is dying
j outi iJy this I do not moan that tho
practice of buying for tho mcro snko of
buying Is not still considered, as It ought
; always to bo considered, a wasto of
money, but that tho slmplo fact of a
' higher price Is, In Itself, no longer ro
' carded as a guaranteo of a higher grado

" "A strango reversion of tho bargain

Ways to Cook the Dashcen
To h .Editor of Woman' Page:
Jf- Dear Madam Tour-paper yeatonlay nubllaheil

Ytabl. Can you stve roe directions for rre-
Sarlnr It! IMrs.) T. M. W.
if A bulletin recently Issued by tho United
f-Etates Department of Agriculture, Wnsli-
v lngton, contains a number ot dasheen
Precipes, nmong which aro tho following:
' Baked dasheens "Whether large or small,
they may be baked like potatoes In a quick
?'oven. Scrub them and remove any loose
iflber from the skin. Sometimes they can
be scraped like new potatoes. If very large
they con be cut In half to lessen tho time
lor baking or parboiled ten to twenty min
ute before baking. Dasheens should be
erved with a quantity of butter, salt nnd
pepper. They are mealy nnd have a de
cidedly nutty flavor when baked.
., .Dasheen sbup Three cups of boiling
water, three cups milk, three cups diced
dasbeen, three tablespoons butter. Bait and
celery to taste and parsley or grated onion
if 'desired. Boll and rice the .dasheen, then
Into double boiler put the boiling water,
add the milk and the dasheen. Hrlng to a
bolt and cook for from five to ton min
utes. Season and serve.
Scalloped dasheens -Fare and slice raw
dashens, putting the slices in layers Into a
buttered baking dish, and season cich layer
with butter, salt, etc Lattlce-woik slices,
, made with a fluted sllcer, are a little moro
attractive In appearance than the plain

cover with rich milk and bake. Only about
' two-thirds as much time is required in cook
ing as for scalloped potatoes, "When corina
'.are used for scalloping it is well to discard
'about tbree-qUartera ot an (nch of the
upper or bud end, as it may be tough after
cooking-- . On account of the firm texture
.of the da.iheen, a sllcer with the sliding
;curd made of wood rather than of tin will
-ruiba-jUisoary If a totted sllcer is used. This
-jntaarhtJ-of serving the dasheen will be found
3itSwa"larly well adapted for banquets or
' jjmal dinners, and In such cases Indi
vidual baking dishes or casseroles should be
1 used.
Fried dasheens Slice boiled dasheens,
" "tT ?ther warm or cold, season with salt and
' fry quickly in plenty of fat. If fried too
lacz they become dry and hard. French-
fried dasheens are also exceedingly good.
polled dasheens, while still hot, may also be
,rnAhed or put through a potato rlcer, mixed

INTEREST TO
A novelty, a new dross goods, a piece ot
furniture, will bo marked several times
its valuo when it Is first put Upon tho
market. The dealer knows a certain class
of persons will pay his price simply for
tho distinction ot buying at a higher
figure. As for moving his stock, a spe
cial salo will do It, with several per cents
knocked off nnd still a neat profit for
himself.
"Tho wlso housewife Is awaro of this
a now order of things Is confronting her.
Sho docs not hcsltnto to buy at the bar
gain counter becSuso bargain-hunting
vns onco tabooed ns a thriftless prac
tice." CURIOUSLY enough, the name mall
brought this effusion from a Haddon
field woman:
"Tho vital question ot tho day may be
Mild to bo tho victual question ot the
day. Not how much, but how llttlo can
a family llvo on? Clover brains nro busy'
figuring accurately down to tho smallest
numbor of ounces of food required, nnd
tho fractions of cents needed to purclmso
It.
"But It Is safe to say that tho majority
of families could llvo on lens than they
do, without any Rorious deprivation, If
they would ellmlnnto woste.
"Tlrst, wasto In tho kitchen. Tho old
saying that 'a French family could live
on what an American family throws
away' may bo an exaggeration, but It
Is a vnlunblo suggestion.
"Second, wasto In tho amount of serv
ice paid for. Instead of spending tlmo and
money for 'domestic nclenco courses'
why not utlllzo somo ot tho misspent
leisure In wholesomo tnsks under tho In
struction of tho homo-keeper? Instead of
agonizing efforts to find nnd keep a cool:,
why not learn to bo Independent of tho
species?
"Third, wasto In dross.. While tho
women of all other great countries aro
glorying In plain nnd simple clothes to
show tholr sympathy nnd help for the
bravo men who go out to death, surely It
Is bettor tnsto If wo bo moro sparing In

"Fourth, wnsto In nmusements. Tho
crnzo to go to tho movies, go to tho game,

Should She Meet Man Outside?
To tiio Editor of the woman's Page:
Dcur Madam Is It propor for elrls to meet
fellows on tho street corners? i ask this ques
tion for tho following reason: A slrl came to
mo anil cited somo ot her troubles and usked
my advice. Blio Is about my use (nlnoteen) and
has a sister live years her senior who Is very
Jealous,
A few week ago the older Klrl save a party
and Invited a number ot youns men, ar.d on
fellow In particular beenme Interested In ths
younger sir!. He has taken her out a few
times and has asked to come around more often,
but when the older sister found this out she
became furous and said she would not allow
him to 011.
Tho fellow Is n perfect gentleman, ar.d I do
not see any reason but pure jealousy for her
not allowing him to call, The mother In this
case has very little to say, as It Is the older
sister who runs tho house, and tho futher Is
dead. Hhe remarked If he Is not allowed to
rail for her at tho house she would meet him
on tho street corner, l'leaso let me know If
this Is correct. CUIUOUS.
The situation Is a very trylne one for
the younger girl. But I would strongly ad
.vise her against meeting this young man
outside; It Is not at all the proper thing
to do and will subject her to criticism, a
most unfortunato thing for any young girl,
if, as you say, the young man is nice she
should take a Arm stand and let her sinter
know that she fully Intends having him
como to see her.

THE WOMAN
MY MARRIED LIFE
By ADELE GARRISON ,
"Oh, the Gorilla
xxmvu upon my word, what are you
mooning over?"
Dicky's voice, closo to me, startled me
so that I dropped tho Bllkcn square which
had brought back to mo so many memories
of my mother and Jock Ulckett Illcky
stooped and picked It Up and examined
It closely.
"India," he commented, and then sus
piciously to met "You appear very much
Upset over this Orlentnl' souvenir. What
Is It, a merrjento of some scntlmontnl epl
sodo?" Dicky's voice was sneering, unploasant.
I had learned upon the day he discovered
Jnok's letter announcing his unexpected re
turn, that Underneath Dicky's careless ex
torlor thoro lurked a demon of Jealousy. It
was not a dangerous demon, by any
means, and ono of which I was very suro
Dicky was much nshnmcdj but It was
strong enough to make him a most unpleas
ant companion whllo It possessed him,
I knew that I had only to say quietly,
"This Is something that belongs to my
mother," to make tender-hearted Dicky
utterly remorseful nnd humiliated, nut my
conscience would not lot mo tell such a
half-truth. I wan aware that my brooding
over the silken fabric had held ns many
thoughts of Jack as of my dead mother.
Ho I faced him, outwardly brave, but
Inwardly quaking, for I dreaded another
scono. . . ...
"I found this when I was taking out tho
linen for tonight," I said. "It Is something
which my mother prized very highly, a
gift to her from Jack Illckctt, tho best
friend my mother and I over had."
Into Dicky's faco flashed tho look of
nngcr which I had learned to drend.
"Oh, tho gorilla with tho mumps," ho
Jeered, contemptuously. It was tho name
expression that ho had usod when ho saw
Jark'B photograph. Whim ho had said It
boforo, tho day that ho had found Jnck's
letter upon the living room table, I had
not noticed It particularly. Now, for somo
renson, It stung mo deeply. I thought of tho
mnny kindnesses from Jack Illckctt which

vnlldlsm, of tho flowors and fruit and books
and pictures which he had constantly show
ered upon her. And his kindness had not
stopped there. Pleading his distant kin
ship and my mother's caro ot him whon a
boy, ho had dono moro substantial things.
My mother's whoel-chalr, llttlo trips which
we took ns his guests, a thousand and one
things came rushing back to me.
A FOIITUNATE INTERRUPTION
I flung back my head nnd facod Dicky.
"It you ever speak of my mother's best
friend In that manner again I shall ro
fuse tho most ordinary courtosy to any
friend of yours." I wns surprised to hear
my voice as cold nnd monsured as It was,
for I was trembling with angor.
Into tho sllenco that followed Katie's
voice came. I do not know what Dicky
would havo answered It sho had not ap
peared at JuBt that psychological momont.
I have learned that such llttlo things turn
tho scale of Dicky's emotions. As Katie
rushed through tho living room, calling
my name loudly, excltodly, Dicky turned
on his heel with a forclblo word which I
pretended not to hear, and went to his
own room.
"Missis Graham, oh, Missis Graham, como
quceck, dot brown skin, heem nil come off."
"All right, Katie, I will como directly."
I nut tho sllkon square back In tho chest,
laid tho embroidered linens for the tabloj
and tne oeus upon me iop ui mu cneai,
Says Mary the Maid
"So I says to Mrs. Van Cleve, I says:
'Let's give them children something

spread a sheet over them, and went to the
kitchen. There Z found Katie In a state of
great excitement over the shelled almonds
which sho had covered witn uoiung water
for blanching according to my directions.
She had never seen any prepared before.
'Tot we do now7" she demanded. For
tunately for my anger and my nerves, Katie
demanded action every minute. I knew also
that If I wanted to bo ready for our little
supper in the evening I would havo to
hurry,
'Turn on tho cold wnter and hold that
largest strainer Under the faucet," I
directed. Katie did so, and I took the
bowl of nuts covered with hot water to the
sink. I poured the nuts Into tho strainer,
nnd emptied tho bowl of the hot wnter. rins
ing It thoroughly. Kntlo held the strainer
of nuts under tho flow of cold water, watch
ing them carefully.
"That will do, Katie," I said, partly filling
tho yollow bowl with cold water nnd carry
ing It to tho table, "Put the nuts In there
now."
"l'ou no afraid heem take cold, first hot
water, den cold water?" Katlo giggled
with enjoyment of her llttlo Joke.
"Not this time, Katie." I umllcd me
chanlcally. "Now, let Us wash nnd dry our
hands carefully beforo we touch the nl
monds. DICKY'S SOLE COMMENT
I went to tho bathroom, leaving Katie
at tho sink for her ablutions. I know that
If I had told her bluntly to wash her hands
Bho would havo resented It. However, I
gnvo her no chance for offense. I -returned
to tho kitchen to find her beaming,
her hands red nnd shining from tho scrub
bing sho had glvon them.
"Now wo will rub tho brown skins from
tho almonds, Katie," I said, suiting tho
action to the word, "and lay the white
meats upon this towel on the table." Katlo
Is a very "swift worker. Sho Is nlso quick
to grasp any mothud of doing things, no
matter how unfamiliar It may bo to her.
So in an incredibly tthort tlmo the nuts
wero divested of tholr brown coats and
lay upon tho towel, whlto nnd glistening
with moisture.
"Now cover them with this other towel,"
I directed, "nnd wo must leave them for
nn hour at least until they get thoroughly
dried."
"Vot you do don?"
"Then I will brown them and salt them."
"l'ou let mo do?" Kntlo's request was
nlmoat a demand. I realized ngaln how
voracious was the mental nppotlto of this
alien girl for tho American methods of do
ing things.
"I cannot lot you do them yourself, Katie ;
they havo to bo dono very carefully, but
you may watch me, nnd I will let you help
mo with them."
"Oh, tank you, tank you." Katie's en
thusiasm mado mo smllo In splto of my
self. I thought of Tom Sawyer and his
success In getting his fence- whitewashed.
Truly making a task dlfllcult of access
mado It dcslrablo to Katie's childllko mind.
I went back to my room nnd put It In
perfect order. As I spread my cxqulsltoly
embroidered cover over tho bed I heard tho
telcphono ring, nnd Dicky's voice answering
tho call. But my door was shut nnd I did
not distinguish the words. Indeed, I did
not enro to ltnow anything about It. My
mental stato was ono of apathy. Llfo
seemed just one disagreement after another,
I told myself, parodying a famous profane
Bcntonco. I put tho finishing touches to my
room and opened my door to moot Dicky.
"I nupposo you would call this a direct
Providence," ho said, unpleasantly, "At
wood just telephoned that Miss Marsden
must go to Chicago on tho next train. Her
brothor is seriously 111 there. Of course,
neither ot them will como tonight, so ono
ot your social problems is BOlvcd."

It. I then set to work and cut out a uioubo
of white georgette crepe. (
Tho back extends well over tho shoulders,
.,.i ihn frnntn nrn shirred across the top.
To keep the material from puckorlntf when
I stitched It on tlio macnmo i covercu inu
seams with Btrlps of paper.
Tho steeves nro bishop, but fit Into the
armholes without a partlclo of fullness. I
gathered them Into snugly flttlng cuffs,
pointed at tho top, and with turnpvers of
laco about the wrists.
Tho V-shnped nrckllne Is finished with
n turned-bnek collar wllh a gathered Jabot.
About the edgo of both collar and Jabot 1
sewed a row of laco Insertion to tnatrh the
cuffs. Tho finished Ulolise is simple out
very effective. It took exactly a day and a
half of steady sowing to mako tho Bklrt and
blouso. (Copyright)

butter pure,

And because wo

the making of this

because only tho
best goes into it,
the price is a littlo
higher than tho
ordinary butter.
But you get moro
