.(II RIoMl Brtrrreil
ALTHOUGH meats vary in the
amounts of fat which they con
tain, the chief difference to be noted
between the cheap nnd the more ex
pensive cuts is not so much their
nutritive value as their texture .-wirt
flavor and the lenpth of time re
quired for cookinp them.
All meat is muscle, which consists
of minute fibers, which are bound to
gether with connective tissue. These
fibers are most tender in young ani
mals and in the parts of the older
animals which have had little mus
cular strain.
Thus from under the backbone in
the hind quarter is the place where
the tenderest meat is found. And
as this equals only 26 per cent of
the total carcass, the housewife must
realize that if the price of meat is
to be maintained at a figure whore ,
we may all enjoy it she must learn
to use the other 74 per cent
Now, as I have told you before,
the meat is made of fibers; these
fibers are bound together into bun
dles or groups by a thin membrane
called connective tissue. This mem
brane, when cooked in water or by
steam, is converted into a gelatin
very quick if the
This process is
meat is from young animals or the
choice cuts. However, if the meat
is from the less choice portions or
from older animals the process is
quite slow and will require suffi
cient time to cook the meat until
tender.
Veal is the dressed carcass of the
calf. The flesh bhould be firm, pink-
ish white and should .be well cooked I

Mrs. Wilson Answers Questions
My dear Mrs. Wilson Will you
please explain to us what is meant
by the following: Drawn butter,
browned flour (no lard), acidu
lated water, to carmelize? Thank
'ing you very much in advance for
explaining these. Mrs. C. T.
Mrs. C. T. (1) Drawn butter is
a sauce made of flour, milk and but

(3) Water made tart by use of lemon
juice, vinegar or chemicals. (4)
Sugar cooked to the carmel stage.
My dear Mrs. Wilson You have
kindly helped mo -with difficult
matters; I am asking you again
for help. I have eaten several
times fish fried in a batter (like
' 'we make apple fritters) and
. served with tomato sauce. Also
vegetables fixed the same way.
Could you kindly tell mo how the
batter is made and just how to
prepare, also if the vegetables are
. cooked first? And would you also
tell me how to make veal cro
quettes, and if tomato sauce
should be served with them?
Thanking you very kindly,

made her confession. Once or twice he
had done things that had made Ituth
uncomfortable, and she discovered that
she was really lying to herself when she
said that Xlck'i friendship was sale,
nuth herself cared not at all for Nick,
she cared for no man but Scott, and she
did nothing to distract Nick and to put
other thoughts sae friendship into his
head, but the thoughts were there just
the same, and nuth knew It."
Nick was allowing himself a little
freedom. He did things that he would
not hae attempted at first, such as
holding her hand a great deal too long
when he left her. Once he had stooped
and kissed it Hsi!j and Ituth had pre
tended to herself that it was nothing
at all to give a second thought to, that
.Nick meant nothing at all by anything
ho did. Once she even said laughingly
to Scott that Nick was a flirt but that
he meant nothing by It.
"Women hae spoiled him, and he
doesn't know how to be Just a friend."
Scott had thought a moment before
repllng and then had said slowly "per
hnps he doesn't want to be a friend to a
woman,"
N'onsense, Scott," nuth had returned
quick as a flash. Matters like this were
nee talked oer with any freedom any
longer between them. There was a bar
rier that both of them realized and nei
ther recognized that preented them
from being frank with each other.
Naturally with such an unnatural
condition existing between them there
would have to be a step taken In one
direction or another. If Ituth had been
asked to tell exactly what Ehe thought
about it, she would have admitted that
she would rather go back to the old
state of affairs, but that Inasmuch ns
Scott had not been satisfied with things
as they had been, she herself would
abide by the consequences. If any one
had asked Scott to tell how he felt about
matters he would have admitted that lie
was bitterly sorry that he had ever made
It possible for nuth to be friends with
a" man life Nick Carson, but he was too
proud to tell her so. Both were playing
at cross purposes.
Ituth Insisted upon Scott sticking
closely to his original program of go
ing out at least one evening a week, and
Nick Carson had been looking forward
to these evenings with a certain regu-
arlty of late. He was seeing lluth often
and always nlone, and Scott knew that
she spent these evenings with Nick, yet
he felt that he could hardly object, if
he had thought for a moment that lluth
was growing to care for Nick, he would
have died rather than admit it anyway.
Then Dolly Dayton gave a masquerade
affair and both nuth and Scott were In
vited. From the day their Invitation
came until a few days before the affair
Itself Ituth talked of little else but her
costume and what fun they would have.
The very fact that she was going with
Scott and that she need fear nothing
from Nick's attentions went far toward
making the evening one to be thoroughly
enjoyed. Then Fate took a hand again
and three days before the party Scott's
firm sent him to Ohio on business.
"What about the masquerade?" she
asked Immediately.
"I'm sorry, dear. It does seem a
hame, but of course there's nothing else
for me to do but go where I'm sent."
Ruth's first thought was that of course
she could not go. that was the conven
tional thought, then came the Becond
thought, why shouldn't she go anyway?
What was there to prevent '
"Of course there's no reason why I
can't go anyway, but I don't see why
this had to happen. Nothing ever does
go right,"
"Would tou want to go alone?"
Of course, after paying all that
money for that lovely Turkish costume.
Aren't you sorry you won't be here
to see me In It?"
nuth, Id rather you wouldnt go
alone,"
Why not? I'll be all right. Nick
will see that I get home."
"Nick can't bring you home here un
less you have some one stay with you."
"Why, Scott, surely you're not going
to develop a conventional strain. All
of your friends' live alone, or a great
many or mem uo. uoni ten me mat
no one ever has a man take her home
on that account?"
And Scott for all Ids broad-mindedness
wished suddenly right here for the power
of the most typically dominant husband.
He wnted to forbid Ruth to go to the
maso.ue.rade, but he felt powerless to
ItJo anything about It.

Laughing at Others' Defects
To the Editor of Woman's Page:
Dear Madim I read with Interest your
article In a recent issue referring to the let
ter of "M. S ," In which he speaks of
tho brutality of young persons toward others
who have some slight physical defects, and
as It applied somewhat to me. I will BUbmlt
my case.
I am an American woman, pale, slender
and rather plain. Whenever Z go outside
the door I am a "Joke" to others men and
nicely dressed women alike and I have lost
all confidence In myself and have grown
morbid and gloomy brooding over It. I am
not of the "sporting" type lust a loving,
tender-hearted, shy. iult, modest woman
and all this sort of treatment has caused
me to withdraw more and more Into
mjself. I have had lota of trouble and Ill
ness and my life has een more of shadow
than sunshine.
For a couple of ears I have been suffer
ing with insomnia, all due to worrying over
this and In consequence look sick, and my
face Is drawn and haggard and my eyes
sunken, with black shadows underneath
Because of my appearance I am made fun
of by all tne men.
If this continues much longer I shall lose
my reason, for I have done nothing to de
serve such brutal treatment
I can say with "M. 8." that In rhlladel
phla the Kaiser spirit predominates cruelty,
brutality and callousness, M, W, II
I would srtop thinking about them,
"M. w. II.." and make un my mind to
get over being morbid and gloomy. You
must do this for your own sake, and not
because of those who have been rude to
jou. Oo to a good doctor and let him
prescrioe a cuuree wi rn;ioc lur UU
th"t wil tone up your body. Seek out
rome work that will make you stop
thinking about yourself. Soon the
new Interest in ininge win maxe tne
color come in your cheeks and you will
come out of the shadow Into the sun
shine. There Is a good deal of trouble
in the world, but w-e must rise above it.
Soon another article that will direct you

A Daily Fashion Talk by Florence Rose
IT is very easy for most of us to re
member the days of the simple
organdie or muslin dress with which
we gowned ourselves on a summer aft
ernoon, and felt with satisfaction, no
matter how simple the attlro might be,
we were fitted for the occasion. There
Is every reason to believe that the same
sort of simple frocks will be qulto the
smart thing for the coming summer.
These simple dresses were shown to bo
the favorite typo of frock nmong tho
women who spent this last season In the
South, for there were more organdie nnd
muslin frocks worn in tho afternoon'
than frocks of any other kind of mate
rial. The artist has made you a sketch of
one of the newest of the simple frocks.
The material selected for this dress is
the one-time favorite dotted swiss. The
bodice, the fronts of which are quite
full, Is plain. The long collar which
forms surplice Is of organdie, and Is
finished on the edge with a two-Inch
lace. The three-quarter length sleeve l
decorated with a turned-back cuff which
matches tho collar. The skirt is plain
and straight. Sashes play a ery Im
portant role in the make-up of theso
cotton frocks. The sash which enhances
the frock today Is of a very w Ide, gros-
graln ribbon In a bright, though soft
shade of blue.
All of the best of these simple frocks,
such as are shown today, are either
white, or of the pale shades of pink,
blue, lavender, green or yellow. Tho
sash, nearly always of a decided color,
either In a corresponding though deeper
shade than that of the frock, or of a
decided contrast to tho dress.
The hat shown with the dress today
is of leghorn. The leghorn brim turns
back from the face across the front
of the hat. The soft crown is of blue
taffeta and Is decorated at the front
with French handmade silk flowers.

their shoes shlned? "I know my shoes
need polishing," jou will exclaim ns you
look at them doubtfully, "but," as you
glance hopefully at tho sky, "maybe It's
going to rain, anyhow." Of course, the
logical thing to do Is to shine 'em at
home. It's not hard, particularly when
you can purchase a combination dauber
which puts the pollshvon and a brush
vi-ir-h shines It up all for twenty-five
centB.
Hi;itU Is something to purchase as a
surprise for the man of the house
shaving soap. Not the regular cylin
drical stick. This Is a shaving tablet,
not quite ns big round as the top of a
saucer and about an inch in depth. I
should think It would be easy to daub a
brush around on one of these. And they
cost but twenty-five cents.
it:
you started making summer
underwear for yourself and the
children? Why not make It out of
white Japanese crepe? It's easy to wash,

Talk With Him
Dear Cynthia Where I work there
is a young man with whom I have
been going out for the last eight months.
ell ?rea ? nic nnd I learned to care
ror him. Vvp had our wedding day set
ami ever thin seemed all right, until
?..' wceks "SO, when something very
funnv happened. I do not know what,
but he seemed to change. I noticed it.
so I decided to have a talk, and so I
did. He told me I was the one who had
changed, nnd also told me he still loved
me, That Is nil he said. I was not an
swered, Dc you think It Is on nccount
i..lny 'Plllnf Mm about a young man
with whom I have been going out? I
did not love him. The man I was to
marry said a word or two when I talked
about the other, but remained silent
later leaving me to do all tho talking
for somo time. He seemed never to
care to hear about him. He has stopped
calling at my home. I have received
some very lovely gifts from him. Should
I return them 7 M. P. M.
Do riot be hasty about this thing. If
you and the young man were to be mar
ried and he says he still loves you and
you say you still love Mm, be sensible
about the matter. Write and ask him
to come and talk with ou. Ask him If
his saying that you were changed meant
that he thought ycu cared for this other
man. Tell him you only care for him,
nn veil mm, too, tnat you know you
should not havo gone out with this
other man when you were engaged to
mm uur yuu nui wrong to no tnis, es
pecially if your fiance was Inclined to
be Jealous, and he had a right to ex
pect you not to go about with others, if
you were engaged to mm).
If he will not forgive ou and wants
to break the engagement, then give him
back his gifts, but nct before. Be pa
tient nnd sensible about it and do not
be ashamed to let him see that you
really caro -for him. At the same time
do not cry and fret to him. Be frank
mid true, and I am suro it will all come
out right.

A STA TEMENT
WHO DO ESN' T HA VE TO WORK
She Answers the Contention That the Young Wjoman From the Com t
fortably Fixed Family Should Withdraw in Favor of the One
Who Needs Her Salary An Aftcr-thc-War Problem
SHOULD the girl who-works for tho'
sheer love of the Job give up In
favor of the large army of girls who
do need positions? Now that the war
Is over this question again looms Im
portant. I havo a letter from a girl
reader who puts tho matter In such
a way that it affords much food for
thought.
"Why Is It," she wants to know,
"that Girls who have worked hard for
the love of their Jobs, even though
their parents can afford to support
them, are frequently salt! to bo tak
ing bread out' of tho mouths of those
In more need of the money? I am
ono of the comfortably well-to-do girls
who did not wait for tho war to wake
me up to tho fact that to work was
a good bit more Interesting than not
to work.
"No particular credit Is duo to mc.
Perhaps I was discontented or ambi
tious. Well, at any rate, I took a posi
tion and havo had ono ever since,
With the war, of course, came thou
sands of girls who did not have to
work. And now, at the end of It,
many of them are going out of It In
hordes, Just as they came In, which
Is only natural. Hut that still leaves
the girl who went to her Job because
of ambition before the war. She docs
not to havo to work, and men arc say
ing she ought to go back to her home.
( A ND this Is tho thing I would like
xV. to get at. Shouldn't the girl
who does tho work In tho most ca
pable manner hold the position? When
people say girls who do not actually
depend for bread and butter on their
positions ought to glvo them up In
favor of those who do, I often think
how stilted the world would be If men
stopped making money tho minute
they had enough to provide bread and
butter for themselves. A funny world
It would be, wouldn't It? Take a
bachelor, for Instance. We would
allow him $400 a month ns the limit
for his salary. Surely that ought to
support him In ease and leave a
little bit over.
"When he came to $400 per month
ho would havo to stop working to
make way for the man whose family
needed the money more than he did.
When he turned around and said hope,
lessly: 'But what am I to do now?
I am only forty, and full of ambition.'
The reply would be: 'You can get up
golf tournaments, play In amateur the
atricals and Improve your dancing.

sufficient money to support them In
comparative ease In splto of being In

would bo called on to resign and Join

of this sounds absurd, doesn't It? And
It would bo absurd, too, because every;
