In the kitchen of hep own home
Sister Mary cooks daily fcr a family
of four adults. Sin* brought to her
kitchen an understanding of the
chemistry of cooking, gained from
study of domestic science in a state
university. Consequently the advice
she offers is a happy combination of
theory and practice. Every recipe she
gives is her own, first tried out and
served at her family table.

AVhcn there arc children in the family
the problem of “what to have for lun
cheon" becomes a little more difficult.
A child's heartiest meal should come
at the middle of the day. A nourishing
clear soup, an easily digested meat —not
too much of it—a starchy vegetable, a
bylky and mineral vegetable and a
“sweet” makes the balanced ratioA desir
able for the noon meal.
In case of carrying the luncheon to
school this same general rule should be
borne in mind.
In the winter a thermos bottle of hot
•soup or cocoa, brown bread sandwiches
filled with nuts and cheese or chopped
raisins and nuts, a vegetable sandwich,
a piece of plain cake or cookie and. when
cocoa is used, an apple or pear or a few
California grapes, constitute a luncheon
that gives the needed amount of nourish
ment without danger of indigestion.
Menu for Tomorrow.
BREAKFAST. —Baked apple, cooked
cereal, toast, coffee. *
LUNCHEON —Bacon and tomatoes,
raised cornbread. tea.
PINNER.—Roast beef (English cut),
mashed potatoes, stuffed onions, celery
and radishes, hot rolls, jelly, caramel
pudding, coffee. %
My Own Recipes.
To have perfect mashed potatoes, it is
necessary to cook them well done. An
under-done potato will not lend itself to
fluffiness and lightness when mashed.
Vigorous heating before and after the
milk is added helps to give the desired
result.

Shockingly Abbreviated Mere at

them for shirtwaists.
Whether or not the American public
will catch hold of this whim and carry
It to excess Is on the lap of destiny. We
have a way of running after every fash
ion in a frantic manner that destroys it.
If we take up the short sleeve when the
warm weather comes, in commonplace,
every-day garments, then th* glove men
will **enp a harvest.
Getting down to the acceptance of this
fashion for the winter one is assured that
the sleeve cap is the fashion for the mi
nority. not the majority. Women do not
ore tend to cover the arms with gloves.
They expose the arms, the neck, and one
mlghf add, the legs, tis though they wore
in bathing suits. In trfth, it is not
to tell the difference between the after
noon frock and the beach frock as they
are shown in the exhibitions of clothes
for Florida
The Amcr'cans who were in Paris last
summer marvelled at the similarity be
tween the gowns worn at all hours at
the seaside resorts, and there is just a
faint whisper of a suggestion that we
will see this same thing repeated at
Palm Beach in February. If t is
for Paris to laugh. She was very much
amused at the shocked expression of the
Americana who saw afternoon frocks
that looked like bithing suits. s*hc pro

If we do, what a storm the critics will
ra se and how much reason there will b
behind their criticism. For the truth is
that the average Anglo-Saxon does not
