Careful Marketing Is Half the Secret of Being a Successful
Houseivifc Dumplings With Beef Steio Arc Good
I By MRS. M. A. WILSON
(CumHoM, 1010, bv Mrs. it. A, Wilton.
if Ml riohts rttervid.)
TO PUT off tho marketing until the
last minute, and then decide In a
thiphuard way, not only makes for
-waste-, but frequently, under these con
ditions, tho food purchased falls to
supply the needed nutrition.
Tho nolland Dutch housewife of
fcNew York knew that the early bird
Tctught tho finest wormx and that tho
CJarsard found tho little ones rind loft
rprcrs that tho early birds had dli--dalncd
to cat.
j Tho woman who puts off purchaslnc
ithp needed foods usually consoles her
iself with a thought that the butcher
jwiil keep something for her or that
-she"'wlll pick up n bargain and so on.
Z. Tho fact is, that a carefully planned
tmenu is not a fad, but a Tltally n?ces
nrj, thing today, if one does not have
unlimited resources: nml to nrrntigc
"this menu so that it will provide for
each member of the family cannot be
done while you snap the iltlftcrs. Ar
,rnngo n menuto suit the family, note
' .tho quantity desired and estimate the
prico beside each item, then take real
.f,fn ... .,. u(nnn.il'u iiin.tr
5 Just a short time npo, I met n
woman who was complaining that she
fc.was unable to feed her family upon her
allowance, and she loudly bemoaned
-tho fact. Upon careful inquiry. I found
thnt she shopped something 'u 'his man
Jier: About 1 :'M In the afternoon she
left home, on her way to the movies,
-and she would pick up n few thine,
and about 4-10 slip would rush wlldlv
.abont gathering up whnt she thought
would be necessary. Then, on n Sat
.urday evening, she made two journeys
to tho shops for last-minute purchases.
There are Ave people In this woman's
;famlly hence the following Saturday
1 planned and marketed for this menu
Jland she franklr told me that I not only
-saved her $4.50 in actual money, but
the food was better and there was more

THE UNWELCOME WIFE

"You've Ruined Your Life!"
Anthony Ilarriman persuades Char
lotte Graves, an inexperienced couti
try girl, to marry him secretly, lie
leaves tho next day for the city to
break the news to lits family.
TT WAS night when Tony arrived in
J- tho city and left the other men ut
the Grand Central Station Now that
he was here .at last, ho had a sudden
desire to break the news nnd have it
over. He was) conscious of tho desire
that his mother nnd fnther would both
bo home, nnd without stopping to pet
dinner, he. Jumped into a taxi, uavo the
address, and fifteen minutes later was
stopping before, a. three-story brown
stone house In tho West 70s.
He bounded up tho steps, greeted
cheerily the elderly man who opened tho
door to his ring, nnd tho next minute
was shaking hands' with a gray-haired
man who had come out of tho dining
room ut tho back followed by n (11b-tlngulshexl-looklng
woman In a black vel
vet dinner dress, whom Tony hugged
roughly.
"Have you had dinner?" his mother
was asking.
"No; hut I'm not hungry. '.Anything
will do. Iet mo have a tray In tho
library. Oce, I have lots to tell you
I was afraid you might be out to n
shindig of Home kind, nnd it did beeni
as If my news couldn't wnlt."
Mrs Harrlman lifted her delicately
penciled brows Inquiringly. Sho was ex
tremely well ordered In all her move
ments, but Tony was her passion Any
thing he did was perfect. A little smile
of understanding lifted tho corners of
hor straight, rather thin lips now, ns
stopping only to give the order for
Tony's tr.iy. she followed tho two m'ii
upstairs to the library, which was on the
next floor.
Mr. Harrlman lighted a cigar nnd sat
back In an casy-chalr, looking at his
son narrowly.
"You're looking well. Did you have a
good vacation?"
"Bully."
"That's fine. I hops you've coni'i
home prepared to get down to n good,
hard winter's work."
"You bet I have, Dad, for more rea
sons than one." Anthony's tone held
such proud exultation that thero -was
no mistaking the fact that he actuallv
did hao news of Importance to Im-
' Again those flno brows of Mrs. lan
dman's were raised, this time there was
a puzzled, almost worried, look In lui
eyes.
"Anthony, what havo you been do
ing?" Hers was a straight attack front
the shoulder. , ,
Ho grinned Impishly. "People." he
said evenly, proudly, "I'm murrltd '"
His father took his cigar out of his
mouth, and his mother roso from hei
chair nnd came over to him. "Married :
Anthony, did I understand you to s.t
married?"
"Yes"
"Who Is she?"
Anthony, meeting her cyeH, saw nil
almost venomous expression In his
mother's eyes It boded 111 for Char
lotte "She's wonderful," he said quickly
"Sho's tho loveliest thing In tho world"
Of course," his father said dryly,

"Her family aro fnrmars, slmplo coun

had hoped, mother, that you would help

Anthony wns conscious of a sudden
Impotent fury. Very well. If they felt
that way, ho would take care of Chnr

Suppose Mother Demands Rlngl
Dear Cynthia Suppose n girl's fiance
wns at war and died In the sen Ice. They
had Intended to marry and ho had given
her a beautiful engagement ring. .Vow.
nfter bolng In mourning for qulto a
length of time, tho girl meets another
young man and. trying to forget, has
consented to bo his wlfo.
Now, the mother of her dead fiance.
Supposo sho should demand the ring
back, what would be tho correct thing
for tho girl to do? Sho holds It dear to
her heart. Could tho mother force It
back? What could bo done In a case
like this? Tho girl Is willing to return
It If It rightfully helongs to tho mother.
Thanking you kindly, VI.
Tho ring belongs absolutely to the
girl. She loved tho man nnd would have
married, him had hq returned. Having
been separated from him by death, she
Is not being unfaithful to him If after
several years she marries another. If
she had changed her mind, and the man
still lived, that would havo been a dif
ferent thing, then sho should give back
his ring to him, but undor the circum
stances you clto, tho ring Is hers, and
the mothor has no possible claim. Under
no conditions. In fact, would the mother
havo' any claim.
Talk With Him About It
Dear Cynthia I havo known a young
man for over a year, but wo are not en
gaged : that Is, wo havo an "understand
ing" between ourselves, but havo not
mado. any public announcement, owing
to financial conditions on both sides.
Now this gentleman Is from n distant
state nnd I hnve never met hl people pr
corresponded with them. This young
man went homo for a visit not very long
ngo and when ho returned ho brought
me a little gift from his sister, who has
ft large family of her own. I Immediate
ly wrote' a letter of thanks, but ns yet
I havo had no reply from her nnd It has
been about three weeks since I wrote.
My mother thinks the sister should
answer my letter. Should she? Do you
think she did not answer Just to snub
me? I hardly believe that, for the gift
sho sent was a piece of her own handi
work. Should I mention this matter
to my friend nnd auk him what Is tho
matter, or nm I In tho wrong expecting
and answer? Thank you, Cynthia.
MONTnoSA.
There Is no obligation to answer n
letter of thanks. You should not expect
an answer unless this young mnn told
his sister you wore engaged to be mar
ried to him when the financial way Is
clear. Did you write tho kind of letter
that would call for an answer? You
see she may feel n little shy about It,
nnd If you said nothing to make her
think you would like to correspond with
her she may be holding back. I would
speak to your fiance about It. Ask him
If ho thinks she will answer, as ou
would love to correspond with her.
Do not let him think you are hurt or
snubbed at all, but say you wish she
would write, and when ho writes to her
to tell her you nro anxious for a letter.
Be slmplo and natural with him about It,
and get that Ilttlo doubt of his sister
out of your mind.
HUMAN CURIOS
The Hermit of Niagara I'bIIh.
A native of Kngloud nnd of Qunker
parentage Francis Abbot arrived nt
.N'lagara Falls In June, 1829, on foot and
In a slngularlv scanty costume. After n
week's stay, ho became so fascinated
with the place that ho determined to
take up his aboda on Ho.it Wand. He
sought seclusion, hut tho proprietor of
the Island not thinking It proper to
grant his request, to erect n hut, he took
a smnll room In the only houso then
Mandlng, being occasionally furnished
with bread and milk by tho family, but
usually providing, nnd nlways preparing,
his own food.
During tho second winter of Abbot's
tenancy, tho house changed hands, so
tho mysterious lsltor left tho Island nnd
built a small cottage on the main shore,
a short dlhtnnco below the falls 'Here he
lled until tho following venr when, on
June 10, 1831, ho was drowned while
bathing In tho rler.
.The full extent of the mystorv, how
ever, was not discovered until after his
death. Abbot had nvtdently been n per
son of highly cultivated mind and man
ners, a master of languages and deeply
learned In tho nrts and sciences. He
handled u number of musical Instru
ments with considerable skill, and draw
lugs found in tho hut nfter bin in,
were remarkably well done. According
' iiiunt, wnu mm ueen most lomlllar
with him. Abbot had traveled over nil of
Uurope and parts of tho Orient but, on
entering his cottage, not a single paper
or record of any kind was found io
throw the least light upon his Identity!

OU, THERE'S a Uttlo woman she's
always little, for sorao reason or
other In your shopping crowd who
causes o great many wrenched and shat
tered nerves 1
You meet her, or rather you rtmo
upon her, on the densest port of a largo
gathering around n bargain counter.
You don't want to get. nt the bargain
counter, becauso they nro selling Ivory
toilet sets, and you have every bureau
In the houso supplied, and, nnyhow,
you know a place where you could get
th(m cheaper.
You want to get past that counter
nnd go back to the one whero they
sell auch prosaic things as safety pins
ami slxt? cotton white. v
Tho nlslo Is narrow to begin with,
and the rows of women around this
counter Just about finish it up. but you
havo to have that cotton right away,
nnd so you push on.
JUST ns you get safely around n largo
woman, and pull your scarf back
on your shoulder ngaln, you meet or
come upon this little ono.
Sho just nppcn'rs, ns If you had
scraped her off the outside of the crowd.
Then she proceeds calmly along the
aisle, nhcad of you you couldn't call
It walking. t , , ,
You attempt to go past her, and with
ono. foot planted n little ahead, you
try to swing yourself around to It.
But the little shopper, neatly, with
out any apparent knowledge of your
presence, swerves out In front of you,
nnd you have to stop, nlmost losing your
bnlnncc. ... .v
Then she halts for 'a vague moment
to examine somcthiug, and you try
"At. last," you think, "she's an
