We must express ourselves In order to
grow and In orddr to rear!) our destined
goal; and we express ourselves properly
only when we try to make things better
both In ourselves and In our environment.
Good Things for the Table.
There are new ways being discov
ered daily of using old friends in new
ways, for example scrambled eggs with
red pepper. Beat six eggs slightly,
add suit and pepper and pour into a
sizzling hot frying pan well greased
with butter, add two tablespoonfuls
of cream and two tablespoonfuls of
chopped red pepper. Serve on toast.
Almond and Celery Soup.
Cut in small pieces a bunch of cel
ery, using the leaves and root, add six
tapper corns, two bay leaves, a table
spoonful of onion juice, a thin slice
of lemon, a teaspoonful of salt, and a
stick of clnnumon, cover with a quart
of water and cook one hour, strain and
again heat, stirring In a cupful of
cream, a tablespoonful each of butter
and flour cooked together and a quar
ter of a cupful of blanched and pound
ed almonds. Allow It to boil two min
utes after the nuts are added. Serve
hot with cheese crackers.
Cream of Pea Soup.
Drain and wash a can of green
peas, place them with a sprig of mint
in a saucepan, add a teaspoonful of
onion juice, a pinch of sugar, a half
teaspoonful of salt and a dash of cay
enne pepper; cover with a pint of cold
water and cook until the peas are soft
enough to press through a sieve. K«
turn to the tire and gradually stir in a
pint of cream and a cupful of milk,
adding just at the last a tablespoonful
of butter blended with one of flour.
Serve with pulled bread.
Salsify Soup.
Scrape twelve good sized roots of
oyster plant, throwing them at once
into cold water, then cut in thin slices
and cover with milk and water, cook
until tender, remove from the tire and
press through a puree strainer. He
lmut, add u pint of milk and a half
a pint of cream; stir in when boiling
hot, two tablespoonfuls of butter, sea
son with salt, pepper and powdered
mace. Four at once Into the tureen
and serve with small oyster crackers.
Dates and Cream.
Cut dates in quarters and spread on
a platter, sprinkle with lemon juice
and let stand an hour. Whip two cup
fuls of cream, sweeten and flavor, fold
in the whites of two eggs stiffly beaten
and mix with the dates. Serve in sher
bet cups.
Characteristics of Any
Nation Are Displayed in
Naming of Its Battleships
One of the ways nationalities have
of displaying their peculiarities is in
the naming of their battleships. The
United States, systematic and busi
nesslike, goes to work and uses up all
the names of its states to paint on the
sides of its greyhounds of the sea.
Great Britain, self-appointed mis
tress of the waves, does not propose to
have that majesty challenged. So she
goes ahead and defies the world with
such hair-raising names of Revenge,
Indomitable, Inflexible, Invincible, Im
placable, Indefatigable, Victorious,
Glory, Vengeance, Valiant, Conqueror,
Monarch, Thunderer, Colossus, Her
cules, Jupiter, Mars, Caesar, Hannibal,
Lion, Tiger and so on.
Germans adhere quite decently to
names of places—places in the father
land, of course, thus proclaiming the
characteristic national love of the
home country.
France full cf love of freedom and
the things which make for human hap
piness, finds her most characteristic
warship names in words which trans
lated would be Truth, Justice, De
mocracy, Republic.
Italy, adorer of her great men Iu
i statesmanship, war, science .and the
I arts, names war boats after Colura
| bus, Julius Caesar, Andrea Doria,
Conte di Cavour, Leonardo da Vinci
and Dante Alighieri.
To be convinced that these customs
of christening are peculiarly national
one needs only to shuffle some of these
names. Imagine us in America stand
ing for a battleship named Indofatiga
| file. Or imagine the name of "Sweet
est Shakespeare” emblazoned on the
prow of one of England's glowering
fortresses of the sea.—St. Paul Pioneer

Tortoise Shell
Now that tortoise shell has
once more come into public favor
it is well to know a way in which
to clean and polish it. When tor
toise shell loses its luster from
wear the polished surface may
be restored to its original con
dition by carefully rubbing it
with powdered rottenstone and
oil. The rottenstone should be
very carefully sifted through the
finest muslin. When all scratches
on the surface of the tortoise
shell are thus removed, a bril
liant polish may be given it by
applying gentle friction with a
piece of soft leather to which
some jeweler’s rouge has been
applied.

The Superstitious Bride-to-Be
By LAURA JEAN L1BBEY
There Is an hour when angels keep
Familiar watch o’er men.
When coarser souls are wrapped In sleep—
Sweet spirit in*et me then!
There is an hour when holy dreams
Through slumber fairest glide.
And in that mystic hour it seems
Thou shouidst be at my side.
(Copyright, 1916.)
It Is- usually the ardent hope of every
engaged girl to bo married iu June, the
month of roses
and weddings.
There seems to be
a mystic spell
connected with
the very thought
of becoming a
bride on a June
day when the
world is flooded
with golden sun
shine and the fair
earth is carpeted
with flowers.
It sometimes
happens that some
unexpected c i r
cumstance trans
pires to prevent
the ceremony be

the rose month. What then? Shall
the disappointed couple wait until it
rolls around again or cast their chance
of happiness with July or some other
month? The superstitious paek away

not to be opened until November.
Those who laugh at tfte notion of one
month" being luckier than another,
snapping their fingers at hearsay
handed down from goodness knows
where, go right nhead with the wedding
quite as soon ns the obstacle which
prevented it can be removed.
It is not always grave and wnrrnnt
uiile reasons which have staved off
tlie happiness of the waiting pair.
Some reasons are as amusing its they
are unique. One bridegroom-to-be
lost the wedding ring which he had
been carrying in his vest pocket. The
bride-to-be refused a substitute lie
cause she had heard it would he disas
Point in Hi« Favor.
"We’ll have to promote this young
man.”
“He seems to be doing good work.”
“Yes. And furthermore, when some
thing turns up ana he has tj> stay at
the office half an hour later than us
ual, I notice he doesn’t call up four
or five people over the telephone and
in a despairing voice tell them they
will have to go op. without him.”

tiny hole in that unfortunate pocket.
His fiancee was so angered at his
seeming carelessness that she broke |
the engagement at once. She would

Another case: A village clerk, hear
ing his sweetheart had accepted his
rival, agreeing to wed him providing
. the marriage could take place in June (

the office which contained all the doc
uments necessary for the license
locked carefully in his safe, thereby
preventing the distracted rival from
i complying with the conditions during
the town clerk's week's vacation. This
strategy won the clerk the girl who
1 could not help ndmi/ing his cool impu
dence and daring to outwit his adver
sary. The clever young man succeed
ed in convincing her that July or Au

unite as lucky for u marriage month
as June.
