"It sounds like a foolish idea to me, but I shall come." "Good! I can always depend on you."

The combination was so good that it became popular and has been ever since. But even in the eighteenth century it was recognized that the filling had to be moist and flavoursome, the bread firm and fresh, to make a perfect sandwich, For home parties and picnics the hostess has to make her sand- wiches hours ahead and worry about ways of keeping sandwiches fresh till time of eating. The new quick-cooking tapioca will work miracles for them. No need to get the bread limp by having the filling soak into it for hours while the sandwiches are rolled in pa- per or damp cloth. This tapioca holds the moisture in sandwich fillings and yet does not in any way interfere with the flavour of those clever appetizing combinations that everyone likes. The tapioca helps to make chick- en, fish, or cheese, go a long way too. SANDWICH FILLINGS To prepare sandwich fillings, place liquid in top of double boiler and bring to a boil over direct ~ heat. Combine quick-cooking tap- foca and dry seasonings, add gradually to liquid and bring to a brisk boil, stirring constantly, Place immediately over rapidly boiling water and cook 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from boiling water. Combine remain- ing ingredients in order given; add to tapioca mixture and blend. Cool--mixture thickens as it cools. For the Perfect Sandwich » FILLING 1 cup chicken stock ioca 1 teaspoon salt % teaspoon pepper % teaspoon paprika 1 cup chopped chicken % cup celery, finely chopped 2 tablespoons 4 cup mayonnaise Makes 2 cups filling.

Fashion Flashes Dirndls are favorite costumes ~for-young spectators everywhere, Crinkled seersucker makes a one-piece 'suit, which rolls into a ball the size of a kerchief when it's not being worn. A two-piece play suit is of white rayon with tailored jacket blouse worn outside the shorts. There arc some large hats this summer but more small in white or gay light colors with frivolous veil, flower or feather trimmings, including considerable ostrich. Fashionable footwear accents high-heeled sandals designed to cover most of the toe and the vamp but open at the sides, with straps joining vamp to heel. Stiebel reports success with full-skirted black chiffon dresses; also with full-skirted printed erepe dresses, the last under fitted matching jackets. Natural, in linen, is another ri- val (besides prints and pastels) of white for spectator sports styles. Short woollen jackets--bolero, waist-length box, and fitted hip- length--are worn instead of sep- arate coats, with printed or mono- tone frocks. The vogue for flowered toques continues, establishing acceptance of formal fashions for summer. Peasant styles replace nautical themes for informal sportswear. Full-gathered and pleated skirts in vivid colored cottons, printed or plain seen in garden and beach wear. At formal dinners, the question of rank in the seating arrange- ment ic not always without ran- cor, Shirtwaist dresses are made en- tirely of velvet or entirely of metal cloth or in combinations of metal and black crepe.

Most students can recognize 62,- 000 root words apd 114,000 "de- rived" words, making a total of 176,000, which seems an extreme- ly extensive vocabulary, especial- ly when we realize that Shakes- peare did not use more than from 15,000 to 20,000 words, and Mil- ton half that number. The highly educated English- man uses more than 4,000 differ- ent words to express himself, and most of them rub along excellent- ly on about 400. Our language contains about 400,000 words and is the most expressive on earth, but many of them are technical or used only in certain trades and professions. Tie Up Soap The elusive cake of soap that often turns a shower bath into a + game of hide-and-seek can be kept in plain sight by a length of thick cotton cording, the kind dress- makers use, Bore a hole in the soap with an ice pick or some such sharp in- strument, and insert a good long piece of the cording. Fasten the ends securely. The soap can then be worn necklace-fashion while you are doing your lathering, and anchored onto the faucets while you are rinsing off the suds. ren 15c.

Against Wearing Colored Glasses Vancouver Man Says It's Just A Fad, A Stupid Practice Which May Injure the Eyes There is a present craze among the younger folk for disfiguring themselves by wearing dark glas- ses with colored celluloid rims. Origin of the fad is easily traec- ed to a desire to emulate stars of the movie colony at Hollywood, says "The Man With the Lantern" writing in the Vancouver Sun. Be- ginning with a pseudo-smart set it has spread to include high school students and other vigorous and young animals of that age. An oculist friend of mine -- well known as an authority on the eyes--tells me that the habit of wearing smoked glasses. unless there is actual need to protect the eyes from excessive glare--moy be positively dangerous. The reason is obvious. In lati- tudes where there is an excess of sunlight, a provident nature has supplied natives with pigments that have the property of absorb- ing the glare. Negroid people are example of this, So my oculist friend says that the wearing of smoked glasses, ex- cept in case of need, weakens the eyes' natural resistance to too much light. It makes them more and more dependable on artificial aid. The colored glasses become vir- tually crutches and create a habit- of-mind that makes it hard to dis- pense with them when the fad has run its course. There is, however, another rea- son against this stupid practice. Most cheap colored glasses are made for style only. The lenses are of molded glass and the mold- ing often results in waves and ab- errations that distort vision and may even damage eyesight. a perfect Diet Deficiency Affects Teeth They Must Have Their Supply Of Minerals and Vitamins Teeth are made up of calcium and phosphorus, which are obtain- ed through the food supply. When there is a shortage in the daily food, the teeth are bound to suffer, and as a consequence what is usual- ly blamed to a natural physical dis- integration is really a condition which could be avoided. Unfortun- ately, people are too ready to accept a mechanical cure for all {lls and one of the most conclusive manifes- tations is in expecting a dentist to be a miracle worker. In many in- stances he is just that, but even he has his limitations. He cannot be responsible for the foundation you have given him to rebuild. They're Living Tissues Your teeth are living tisgues and must have their supply of minerals and vitamins to make thém heal- thy. They must be kept clean, of course, but their nourishment comes from within, That is why milk is the food most important for keeping the teeth healthy, be- cause {ts constituents are those ne- cessary to the formation and main- tenance of good teeth. An interesting factor incident to the condition of teeth was brought out last summer at the convention of the American Dental Associa- tion. At this meeting it was said that emotions--worry, fear, frustra- tions and repression--cause teeth to decay, the reason being that the effect upon the thyroid gland upsets the calcium balance of the body, which in turn has an immediate ef- fect upon the health of the teeth. Twins Are Linked By Strange Bonds It's One of Nature's Mysteries That Twins Oftentimes Do And Think The Same Things The miracles of twin affinities have recently been augmented by an amazing case recorded in Bel- fast. The twins were men, aged 41, one of whom was admitted to hos- pital apparently suffering from a severe internal ulcer. On the next day his brother, his opposite in physique, entered the very same hospital with a similar com- plaint! Coincidence, you say. But this is by no means an isolated incid- ent. Same Operation ~ Twins named Kerger were last year operated on, in Illinois, for appendicitis at the same time. Recently twins, unknown to cach other, fixed the sae dota for their weddings, and were married simultaneously in Liver- pool and Blackburn, England. It is not unusual for identical twins even to have the same dreams or nightmares, though the dreamers may be miles apart at the time,
