IN OBDER to purchaso meats in
telligently bo that we will receive
the best value for money expended,
it is necessary to know tho nature
of tho cuts, and especially tho pro
portionate amounts of lean meat,
fat and bono that they contain; also
the approximate food values of tho
meat obtained from various parts of
the carcass.
Hind Quarters
Loin steaks average 57 per cent
lean, 33 per cent visible fat, 10 per
cent bone. Sirloin steaks in general
contain a larger percentage of lean
meat and a smaller amount of fat
than the porterhouse or club steaks.
Rib cuts contain 52 per cent lean
meat, 31 per cent fat, 17 per cent
bone. The greatest percentago of
lean meat is found in the sixth rib,
and the smallest in the eleventh or
twelfth rib cuts.
Round steaks are meats cut from
the round. They average 67 per
cent lean meat, 20 per cent fat, 16
per cent bone. The round steaks
contain from 73 to 84 per cent lean
meat
The rump contains 49 per cent
lean meat, the round as a pot roast
contains about 86 per cent lean meat;
the largest percentage of fat is
';found In tho rump roast. Soup bones
contain from 8 to 60 per cent lean
meat.
The Forequartcrs
The forequartcrs of beef contain
the chuck, the shoulder, clod, neck
and shank. The chuck contains 67
per cent lean meat, 20 per cent fat,
and 12 per cent bone, duck steak
Varies from 60 to 80 per cent lean
and from 8 to 24 per cent fat.
Tho clod, or bolar cut, contains
82 per cent lean meat and 5 per
cent bone.
Relatively more lean and less fat
meat is found in the chuck rib roast
than in that cut from the prime
ribs.

RUTH did want to confess to Scott
that she really didn't care a grea
pal about this friendship with Nick Car
son. Woman-like, onco she had scored
aha was willing; to tell him how, but she
wisely retrained and told him nothing at
nil. She had begun this thing because
Boott had told her ho wanted her to have
friendships with men, not because she
herself wanted any other man In the
world but Scott.
When Scott finally told her that he
had novtr Uked the things said about
Nick Carson aha had laughed.

The brisket and novel cuts are sim
ilar in proportion, while tho rib
ends slightly higher in percentago of
bone and less lean.
Flank steak contains 85 per cent
lean meat and 15 per cent fat
Shank cuts, or soup bones from the
shank, vary from 15 to 67 per cent
lean meat and from 25 to 76 per
cent bone, whilo the boneless shank,
used for stews, goulashes, hashes
and minces, contains 85 per cent
lean meat and 15 per cent fat.
The trimmings from tho loin, in
steaks, reduce their weight about
13 per cent and these trimmings"
average 4.6 per cent fat and 2 per
cent bone. Round steak is reduced
about 7 per cent in weight in trim
mings, principally in fat; chuck
steaks about 6& per cent, princi
pally bone.
Rump, shoulder, pot roast and
neck aro all materially reduced in
weight by fat and bono trimmings,

determining the actual amounts.
The actual proportion of lean meat,
fat and bone in the various cuts, their
relative values to economy, fixes the
prices to the consumer.
Taking the cuts of meat in their
right order, we have:
First. The neck for soups, stews
and corning. The cost is very low
and the waste is considerable.
Second. The chuck. This includes
the entire shoulder and contains five

Ruth wondered why she felt em

quality as No. 9, they cost consider
ably less.
Three. The shoulder clod. This is
part of the chuck and enn bo pur
chased in almost all maikcts. The
price is low and there is no
waste. It is used principally for
steaks and pot roasts. When used
for steak score the meat well.
Fourth. Shank. According to
tho market price, this is tho cheap
est part of the beef. However, it
contains 54 to 57 per cent waste nnd
requires long cooking. It is used
for soups nnd stows.
Fifth. Ribs. Contains eight ribs;
five of these nro tho prime cuts and
are used for ronsting exclusively.
Sixth. Sirloin. The loin, some
cuts contain as low ns 3 per cent
wnstc. The tirloin is tender, there
fore quickly and easily cooked. For
this reason it is one of tho most
popular cuts.
Seventh. Porterhouse. This por
tion of tho loin contains the choicest
steaks, excellent nnd nutritious nnd
easily and quickly cooked. The fillet,
or tender loin, forms a part of tho
loin and averages nbout 13 per cent
waste.
Eighth. Rump. This cut is very
nutritious, but requires careful cook
ing to render it tender; it contains
slightly more waste than the round.
Good steaks are obtained front the
rump; it is nlso used for pot roast,
braising and corning.
Ninth. Pin bonet the middle por
tion of the loin. It is of excellent
quality, tender and of good flavor
and quite as popular as the loin. It
is the face cut of the rump.
Tenth. Round. An inexpensive
cut, containing only 7 per cent
waste. It is nutritious as tender
loin, but not as tender. The first
essential in cooking is to sear the
outsido in order to retain the juices,
and then cook slowly until tender.
Steak and roast are cut from the
round and the back or heel end is
used for pot roast and stews.
PEPLVMS AND BUTTONS

A Daily Fathlan Talk by Florence Rose
THERE Is nothing that the joirng girl
so much desires in the suits she
selects for general utility as that note
of trlmneas and compactness that coun
teracts any nwkardness or gawklness
that ehe may not have outgrown. i:spe
dally If the young girl Inclines to an
gularity or to tallness her smlt should
be selected with this Jdea well In view.
For this reason, though the youthful suit
should be simple In a measure. It should
not possess that classlo simplicity, that
singleness of line that the more mature
woman of graceful proportions can wear
to good advantage.
Tha suit shown here Is one that elves
the very young woman Just the feeling
of trlmneas tnat sne aesircs. The peplum
of the Jacket, the belt, the apron on the
skirt, the use of buttons all these things
tend to counteract any awkwardness that
me young woman nunni iie Drought
with her from her flapper days without
really marring tne simplicity of the
suit. There Is a tendency on the part
of less skillful tailors and dressmakers
this season to use buttons In such a
way as to spoil the general effect 6t
the suit or frock. It takes a really clever
designer to put them on as they ara
used here, so tnai iney really add to
the unity of the design.
Tha model here la made of bluo serge
end Is trimmed with black soutache
braid and buttons. The peplum of the-
jacket is rormea oy aeep pleats and the
skirt, which Is very narrow, Is charac
terised by a deep apron at the front,
which Is also bound bv the soutache

ventional for her not to dlno nt restau

other than her brother or fiance or somo

not to be prudish, but at tho same time
to avoid carelessness.

Dear Cynthia I've never written to a

Rounder." That I did not npprovo of; It
sounded kind of dlsslnated. but other
wise I do think his letter was Just
grand If these girls would stay nome
and mend their stockings and wash their
faces and brush their hair they would bo
doing well.
When I was vountrer I never used
powder or ansihlng nrtind.il, nnd I
have nlwasH had the greatest respect
from the men folks. I am now past
twenty-eight and have yet to bo spoken
to bv- a strange man. I wear stylish

ones. When the husband of my dreams

"Old Rounder" Is Rebuked '
Dear Cynthia Whllo reading the
Punuc I-Eoocn this evening I saw a
letter written by one who calls himself
"An Old Rounder."
May I say a few words about his let
ter? In regard to the shampoo and facial
massage business, I would like to say a
word. Isn't there usually a larger crowd
In the barber shop than in the beauty
shop? That Is' a proof that men are
also fond of their "beauty," If not more
so.
-Speaking of rouge. I do not see any
harm In It If the wearer uses enoijgh
hut not too much. Everj' woman Is not
blessed by a beautiful complexion, and
useB the rouge Instead. The rouge Is
usually put on for the men, who alw-ajs
like pink oheeks.
Now tho subject of covering the neck.
Why should wo not wear a low neck?
There Is no cold weather and we don't
worry about freeiing. Men have to
wear high-necked clothes because they
are so 'cold-blooded." I'erhupa If they
had a pretty neck, as some girls have,
they would want to wear low necks,
too. 'Who wants to wear a high, stiff
and uncomfortable collar? Not II
If he hadn't been looking so hard at
the joung girls boarding the cars he
wouldn't have seen those spaces and
"ladders." Keep jour eyes at home,
Mr. Old Rounder, and you won't see so
much I
Of course, I myself don't and never
expect to use rouge, wear tight skirts,
showing "ladders" fn my stockings or
have a facial massage, since I am too
young. This letter Is not to defend mj'
self but the' older girls of whom "An
Old Rounder" speaks.
He finds all the women's faults, nuw
I hope he will find a few of the men's.
I wouldn't call his letter a "friendly
tip," but a "slam" for the girls.

Crude oil for the hair Is sold In tubes,

It should be applied directly to tha scalp,
massaged Into It, and therefore tho
fingers are best to use. Y'ou only apply
It to the roots of the hair and j'ou must

It well to have It take effect. I never

To the Editor of Woman's Page:
Dear Madam Where Is a good place to
keep a will? Is It safe to keep It locked In a
bureau drawer or a trunk In your own
room? I It necessary to have many person
sign their names to jour will? If so about
how many? (Mrs ) M. ).
The safest place to keep a w 111 Is In
a vault In a bank with any other val
uable papers jou may chance to have.
Tou can rent a box for S3, i or $E a
year. It Is most unwise to keep a will
In b. bureau drawer, etc , as It Is unwise
to keep any very important papers,
money or valuables around. Two wit
nesses should sign their names to your
signature. They need not read tho con
tents of the will and they must not bo
those to whom you nre bequeathing, any
thing. Draw up j-our will with a law-j-er's
advice.
St. Valentine's Party
To the Editor of Woman's Page:
Dear Madam Can you kindly suggest a
novel way to decorate the dining room for
a St. Valentine's party? Can jou also give
ma some good. Jolly games that would be
appropriate for tne occasion.
13. C. B. C.
Valentines themselves make novel
decorations. Buy the lacy ones If J'OU
can and suspend them w 1th ribbons from
the chandelier or the center lamp, being
careful, of course, that nothing Is apt
to take fire. Use a row of ruffled red
crepe paper and ia row of white as a sort
of Bklrt for tho dining table. For a
centerpiece have a large bowl of red and
white flowers and here and there, by
means of wire, have attached tlnj
Cupids, hearts and doves. Let strenmers
of red and white ribbon go from the
centerpiece to tho edges of the table.
Please send a self-addressed envelope
and I shall be pleased to let you have
the games.

THE BOT'8 MOTHER,
If you take tho boy to 1522 Cherry
street, the Bureau of Compulsory Kdu
cation. It Is possible a position that calls
for these hours might he found. Explain
the circumstances. Then, too. It would
be a good plan for jou to put a little ad
vertisement In the paper stating the
hours the boy could work.

ALL THE FAMILY SKIMPED
TO SEND HIM TO COLLEGE
Ue Asked for an Education and
Shattered All His Father's Dreams by Marrying a Girl Twenty
three The Sting of Ingratitude
SHAKESPEARE picked up his little
old quill pen and wrote a very true
tning one day. Do you remember
theso lines from "Aa Tou Llko It?"
"Blow, blow, thou wlntor wind,
Thou art not so unkind as man's
Ingratitude."
Hero Is a case of real Ingratitude
A mother and father, whoso lncomo
was qulto small, took their first-born
son In consultation when he was
fourteen and asked lilm what he
wanted to do. Ho said ho wanted to
go to college, nnd had his mind set
on a certain prep school to prcparo
him for It. The prep school seemed
moro or less of a luxury, but the
parents loved their son a great deal
and so they consented, on condition
that tho boy promise to tako ivory
nu vantage or nis education nnd to
go all tho way through tho college
course.
Those who have had to skimp and
connive to put soma ono through
school know what' tho parents went
through then. Thero wero two llttlo
girls and another boy In tho family,
and I am afraid they too felt ' the
pressure of brother's education.
WSLU tho lone; and the short of It
Is, In his fresAman year at col
lego tho boy at tho ago of nineteen
married a girl of twenty-three whom
ho had met In a llttlo nearby .town.
His father, who knew of tho attach
ment It was of short standing ad
vised as best he could against it. His
mother pleaded. But tho boy per
sisted. I wonder If the young know how
their parents llvo In them. That
father worked over dry-as-dunt books
through those five years when his
boy was having the best there was to
he had in tho way of education, and
I am sure those myriads of carefully-
Adventures With a Purse
JTTTORn you know It, St. Valentine's
JP Day will be here, and even If you
have qulto pasBed the age whero this
enchanting time stirs you, you neverthe
less know some "littlest girl" or "lit
tlest boy" to whom you would like to
send a little card. Know then of the dis
play of valentines ono of the shops 1b
offering. Come little cards -wltli gay
red hearts nnd sportive Cupids, cards
with many, many sentiments, from the
blunt question. "Will you bo my valen
tine?" to the more tentative offers of
the bashful suitor. There Is even one
which declares most vehemently that
while we have been nsked to Hooverixe
on most an thing, the writer will not
Hooverlze on affection for his or her
Valentine. Prices are such that the
slenderest purse can find a valentine. '
There Is something Intimate and per
sonal about books on one's table and
held together by book ends, that can
never be achieved by tho smartest or
most capacious of book cases. But of
course the book ends themselves should
be In Keeping. Ano wmi sucn a variety
from which to cbjose this Ib easily' pos
sible. The, book ends I particularly
liked are what I think might be called
colonial design. Ono set shows an In
viting old white door with brass knock
er, and red flagstones all around. The
other set represents a large fireplace
with logs placed ready for lighting.
The price of either set Is $4. They
would make a, moBt uncommon and at
tractive gift.

made little figures lighted the way to

On the trains in and out from Ihe (
little suburban homo the father used J t
to talk about Ills son. Llko all fathers ,
who have ever watched their oft- '
spring march forth to tako a proud
place with other men's sons, hn was
glad when somo onA said: "How's tha
ooy j ,Anap wnuo ins race was ngnt- j
ing up ana no was answering, won,

A lili the mother's and father's fond
" dreams were shattered. And what
had tho boy to show for his stubborn iv
persistency two years later? Nothing v
but unhapplncss, and tho bitter convic
tion that tho youth of nineteen has
much to learn In the matters of tha v
world. It would bo different If 'this
boj' had not pleaded for the education .
ho so ruthlessly threw down. But you '
must remember It was not forced
upon lilm.
When this boy's life was threatened '
with tho petty lovo affair that loomed ',
so big nt the time, gratitude to his
parents Is perhaps tho ono big cmo-
Hon that might havo saved him. But
there seems to havo been no thought
of it In Ills head.
Some, In reviewing this little story, -will
say If tho parents had raised the
boy differently he would not have) "
failed them at such a crucial moment.
But gratitude Is not exactly like that.
It Is a rugged flower of the soul, ,
blooming and springing up with sweet
perfume to greet us when we least ex.
pect It, and growing not at all In ?
nurtured and cultivated gardens.
Qratltudo is between a man and his

larity of rings for the little finger, It
naturally follows that you should se
lect n little finger ring. Those I saw
are gold, with square or octagonal stone
set deep. They havo been lowered In
