Recipes for Holiday Delicacies That IP ill Delight the
1 qungsters Next Sunday Morning and an
Easy Way to Color Eggs
By MRS. M. A. WILSON
Cavvrloht, IB. J, bv His. H A. U'd.oii.
AH rtoht rc$entd.l
TVTANY mothers object to the use
of dyes in coloring; Easter eggs
that tho small children use. Yet
they arc most anxious that their
wee folk have variety of Easter
goodies.
'Have you ever tried the home
vegetable dyes? Eggs may be dyed
a .loyely shade of yellow by cooking
lift ftcrrra in n Tin.. Willi (lip skins: nf
yellow onions; the amount used will
determine the amount or coloring. I
, . , , , . . ,,
Spinach and parsley will give the
gr.cen coloring, while beets will
color from the shade of delicate pink
to a deep red. Names, dates and
mottoes may be readily written on
the eggs by using a small brush nnd
n, liquid fat. Write this on before
dyeing. The surface of the egg must
be absolutely clean and the writing
should be set about one hour before
cooking the eggs. It will take but'
a little practice to provide a large
variety of these eggs.
The eggs may be made from '
sponge cake, dipped in either fon-l
dant or water icing, and then deco-'
rated with small flowers o'- a name
o greeting written with icing.
To Make This Cake
-Place the yolks of thiee eggs in a
bowl and add
Three-quarters cupful nf sugar.
Cream until light and lemon col-j
ored, and then add '
Four tablespoonfuls nf water,
One cupful of floui.
Two level teaspoonful nf baking
powder.
Beat to mix, and then cut and fold
into this mixture the whites of
three eggs, beaten stiff. Pour in a i
greased nnd floured pan, and bake
for forty-five minutes in a moderate
oven. Remove from the pan and
cool. Cut into pieces and then trim
into shape with scissors into the
shape of an egg. Cover with either
fondant or water icing.
Fondant Icing
Place two cupfuls of granulated
sugar in a saucepan and add
Three-quarters cupful nf boiling '
water,
One-quarter teaspoonful nf cream
of tartar,
Five tahleapoonf tits of ichite corn
sirup.
Stir until the sugar is dissolved
and then with n damp cloth wipe
down the sides of the saucepan.
Bring the mixture to a boil and cook
until it forms a soft ball in cold
water, or if you use a candy ther
mometer cook until it reaches 240
degrees Fahrenheit.
Remove from the fire and pour on
a large well-oiled meat platter.
When partly cool, work, using the
cake turner like a hoe to knead. Do
this until it turns creamy white, and
then work with the hands into a ball.
To Use
When ready to use place in a

Try and See
Dear Cynthia I have been leading
your helpful column for some time, and
T wonder if you ran help me now. I
used to keep rompnny with a girl whom
I loved clearly. We kept company for
two years. About six months ago we
broke off I loved nnd still love her,
but she has another swepthcart. fit
Flow ran 1 gpt hpr back? f2. "Would it
he proper for me to try to get her
bark? S. K. A.
If (his girl is engaged to another man
(he only honorable thing for you to do
is to let things rest as they nrp ; but if
she is not engaged to him, there is no
reason why you should not call to see
hpr nnd hnvp n talk with her. You can
tell hpr that you care for her still nnd
ask her it there is any hope of gaining
hpr Iovp. Tt can do jou no harm, and
if you find she rnres for the other man,
at least your mind will be settled on the
matter, and that is better than uncer-,
tainty. '
Wonders If He's Engaged
I.eona Lee: "What do jou mean, dear,
nbout meeting him at (he movies? Doe.
not this joung man take you to the
movies'. Surely jou don't make ap
pointments to meet boys inside of these
nine.-". 'Iheii' is something io wrong
in the attitude of young girls with hens
thnt it is very difficult to undermine
the habits they have gotten into. Nice
little girli do not go to movies nlone,
dear, nor do they meet boys inside the
movies by appointment.
If this bov likes jou nnd wants til go
see jou let him go by all means, nnd if
he wants to take you to the movies aijd
jour parents approve, go with him

Another thing, if the boy sftys he is
not engaged to this girl why should he
not call on you? There is no reason for
love nffniis with every boy jou meet,
jou know, and in fact it's very foolish
to think of semfment in every friend

LIVING UP TO

Skin Clear, Hair Becomingly Dressed and Hands and Nails If ell
Kept The Story of a Girl Who Built Beauty Around a Simple
Little Inspiration to Tahc Ctrc of Herself
I KNOW a hopeless-looking girl
who built something close to beauty
an around a little bottle of hand lotion.
One night she was tired and went Into
a drug store to got a glass of egg
nntl.mllk and she spied this bottle. It
looked ns though it might smell nice.
So she bought it, not particularly to
rub on her hands she nover bothered
nbout them, although they wore
lough nnd red-looking from "llck-and-a-promlse"
washings, hurried dryings
and general lack of care. Her Invest
ment waR Just a whim.
When she got home, of course she did
put the lotion on hpr hands, for that
was the best way to get fragrance.
Tho next morning her hands felt soft;
at least softer than thej had been for
a long time. But the fingernails! Sud-denlj-,
even all by herself there, Bho
became ashamed of them.
At noon Hhe went .Into a drug storo
and bought all the llttlo mj-sterlous
Jars and bottles of things a woman
uses to make her nails softly pink
and dainty and nlco to watch. That
night the redness had begun to creep
on tho hands again, as it will when
one has' put tho lotion on only once.
Hut 'the Inspiration had been gown
and the girl was undaunted. She sat
up until 12 o'clock with a bowl of
warm, soapy water on the table In her
llttlo boardlng-bouso loom and worked
with all tho fragrant little, salves and
bottles. A session with the buffer,
then a vigorous rubbing of the nnlls
on the palm ot tho hand, then on with
more of the lotion and finally an old
pair of gloves and she hopped Into
bed. '
THE next day well, X don't think a

would stop a second In her work to
look at them, posing them this way
and that. But when sholooked in the
mirror suddenly all the rest of her seem
ed sliabbj-. Her hair was frowsj- It had
been falling out, but somehow she
never did anything about It. ller-face
was pale and sallow from lack of ex
ercise, too little sleep and eating meals
at any old time an 1 bolting them down
at that. She spent plenty of monev
on her clothes, it was true, but who
would have suspected It?
The rest of this little true storv Is
brief ns far as we are concerned. The
girl made up her mind to go to a good
reliable hairdresser to have her hair
treated, which she did and got so used
to having It fixed nicely she has never
got out of the habit since. She also
made up her mind to join a gymna
sium class and take a walk every da.v.
which she did. The rest, with steady
little calls on will power, came easv.
A little health nnd a little vigor create

more health nnd more vigor. Finding

cheeks and sparkling ejes through
following a certain routine for a day
or so makes you want to follow that
routine every day.
And so my little friend, fairy story
like ns It may seem, was turned Into a
new woman.
I WRITE of this young woman at
this particular time because I don't
think there Is any time for beginning
all over again as when one has new
clothes. And ot Kastertlme most
women and girls' have pretty new
things. But how much lovelier pretty
clothes are when one lives up to them.
Skin, hair and hands at their best! It
Is a woman's duty ns welt as her
pleasure.
