Now beat up an egg and then add
one-half of the beaten egg to one

British Isles; they replace the
American pancake, and for tea le

My dear Mrs. Wilson Will you
please be kind enough to help me
out of my dilemma? My husband
comes home at noon and I have a
regular dinner, but am at a loss
what to serve at night, as I can't
afford meat at the evening meal.
Would appreciate it if you could
suggest a few menus. As lie is a
collector and walks all day, I would
like something nutritious. Have
tried a number of your recipes and
am delighted with them. Thank
ing you, will anxiouslv await a re
ply. NEWLYWED.

Wilson Answers Questions
firm in the center, usually about)
twenty minutes.
My dear Mrs. Wilson I have
tried a great many of your recipes
and havo hadsuccess with most of
them. Now, would you please tell
me how to make a nice strawberry
pie and to make strawberry tart
lets? The tartlets are made, I think,
by first baking the crust, as for
other tartlets, and then filling with
some strawberry mixture, and I
believe some sauce is put on tbp.
B. B.

A Dailj Fashion Talk b Florence Hose
WIIKN the cr tight hkiit made its
appearance Inst f-enson It seemed
almost unbelievable tlint the women
would ecr adopt the mode. Tossibly
Ihev never would have done k had it
not been for the piopaganda which ac
companied this fashion, which led them
to belike that they weio being eco
nomical and taving for others. To bo
sure, they were ccouomical as far as
their own poeketbooKs were concerned;
the high prices of materinls, even now,
proves that. But the tight skirt is uot
comfortable, and aside from how bent a
woman is upon being in fashion she
insists in this age on comfort.
The pipe-stem skirt was short lived.
Even the straight sliirt most of the
women liave had made wide enough
this season to allow them to walk with
ease. Even wh"n i::k tight skirt with
the slit nt the back made its entry
tho women found it unsatisfactory and
asked for more allowance in the mate
rial about the hips and knees.
After all, demand is alvvajs met and
the fashions are once more swinging
back to the full skirt creeping in very
likely best describes it, for as et the
skirts, no matter liuw wide they may
be aiound the hips nnd knees, nrc nar
row about the nnklcs. At times the
great fullness nbove tends to give the
lower part of skirts a narrower appear
ance than they have in reality.
Looking at the newest of the models,
from tho knees up, the lescmblance to
the frocks of our groat-grandmothers
is most remarkable. There is the same
pourcd-in effect of the bodice, the short
sleeves and tho i minded neckline, an
well as tho fullness about the hips.
(Inquiries nrc solicited and may
sent care of this paper.)

WHO BUYS BALCONY SEATS?
A Discussion That Arises From a Query Recently Put to the
Page by a Girl Named Poppy
I
S THE j-oudr man who Invites a cirl
up In the bnlcony "plksr"? Recently
n jounu woman ot twenty-two who
wrote to thr vomm'n page wnntcil to
know this. It wasn't that she minded,
but the jdrls she went with thought It
was terrible. '
our letter, Toppy, reminded me of
n conversation I had one timo with n
self-made. man. He is n ery wealthy
n'nd marvelously successful man, who
nnn once n little urchin runnlnc around
the East Side in New Tork. We were
talking In n general way about success.
The self-made man began to smile.
"What's the joke?'' 1 said.
"I'm thinking," he answered, "of
something that happened the other eve
ning. I was at the theatre with nn
other gentleman, and about five min
utes after the curtain went up was
aware of n very oxpensivc-souuding
parU of two nniving in the two seats
next to me. At the first opportunity
I looked up, and who do you tliiuk It
was? The eighteen-year-old or twenty-vear-old
clerk in our outside office, who
is probably at the most enrning 518 n
week, and his girl was with him ! Sakes
alive, when I was making $IS n week
well, I'd hate to tell you where 'me
and my girl' t-nl when wo went to the
show."
THE joung people of today have too
much false pride about them. Our
joung men have claimed 'again nnd
again that it is harder for them to suc
ceed thnn .it was for their fathers nnd
their grandfathers to s'-ceced. Hmv
nn thev exnrcl to cot along when they
are never willing to roll up their sleeves
nnd get down to business? They want
to go tho pace, to wear the same kind
or silk shirts, to sit in tho same kind
of theatre seats ns the man who has
slaved twenty years to get wnero no is
now.
The men who arc leaders in the big
business world today did not ilnd their
fortunes wrapped tip in a little pile anu
waiting on Main street for them to pick
up and take home. They worked when
they were eighteen nnd twenty 5 cars
old; cs. nnd twenty-five and twenty
seven". They worked nnd they saved!

As chic and smart
as the iiew frocks

' models for Spring.
You will find them as

able as they are good
looking. And their moderate price ,
is an additional good
feature.
'TIS A FEAT TO FIT FEET
ever directed the spending of millions of
dollars for large corporations if they
did not' learn to do tlint first essential
thing direct their own small affairs
to the extent of being able to sttvc some
thing each week? It Is self-control, an
ability to know what can bo afforded
nnd what cannot be afforded that puts
n man on the high road to success.
Ask any self-mado man you know If
he knew what the downstairs In a the
atre looked like when he. wan twenty
years old. He'll tell jou "no," And
his girl went with him up in the balcony
nnd if thciV wasn't enough of money
for that, then. Lord bless them, they
went up In "heaven."
NO, POPPY, the young man who asks
a girl to go to tho theatre with him
and takes her up in the balcony is dis
tinctly not a "piker." Hp Is the klud
of young man who knows that NOW Is
the timo to build for tho future, not next
month or next sear. lie is going to be
successful in tho bulncss world.
He does not borrow money: neither
does he pawn his watch to make n big
showing before you and the other girls,
and I'll warrant his board bill is paid.
Don't look down on him, therefore,
Poppy. Look up to him, for ionic day
j on will. And you ought to bo proud
now tup, he thinks jou arc the kind of
n girl who is sensible enough not to
mind going tip in the balcony with him !

mHB world's going plumb crazy
J. about necklaces and chains," ex
claimed Dorothea, who in spite of. her
superior disdain was obviously admir
ing those w-o bad both paused to ex
amine. "No wonder," I answered
shortly, "look at these." Of dull col
ored cord they nrc, with curiously
carved wooden beads. Each has n most
unusual slinpod pendant. They're pretty
enough to tnko. the place of trimming
for a dress. Prices begin at ?'J.
"Don't ruin good coffee by Improper
making," Is the Injunction. The trico
lator, which Is like a percolator, only
more so. if you know what I mean,
makes healthful coffee, extracting only
tho desirable wholesome properties. You
who flatter yourself that you are a
Judge of good coffee will be delighted
with the delicious coffee the tricolator
makes. The coffee, you see, instead of
being at the top as in a percolator, Is
in tho bottom, nnd the boiling water
drops, down on It. Leastwise, that is
what I understand. The price is $2.70.
When you were a child, dear reader,
there were uot tho many new nnd in
genious tojs that are to bo found
nowadays for our little people. Tako
as an example the mother goose char
acter dolls I saw today. Mother Hub
bard herself in quaint dress nnd rakish
