Breakfast at the hotel was always the same; rolls with butter and very sweet jam or honey. The bev- erage was either Turkish coffee, an eggcupful of thick, coffee syrup, or what they chose to call "nescafe"', hot milk with a dash of coffee, or tea which was served with a pitcher of hot milk. We solved this by = I drank clear while my companion Quite often, because we were on the go all the time, gould make a picnic lunch of rolls, cheese and fruit. the many little bake shops there was a great variety of hot-from-the-oven breads and pastries. Eventually we found a kind of cheese we liked. Most of the cheeses were crumbly and bland. I presume they were made from sheep's or goats' milk and we didn't enjoy them. The tomatoes, red and green peppers, ripe olives, peaches and pears and gifs were large and luscious. The grapes were as big as greengages and there were all kinds of nuts (in shells). The walnuts were so fresh they were milky. All these items could be purchased very cheaply at a dozen little shops anywhere. It was all displayed on the sidewalk and could have been weighed and bagged (sometimes we got a paper bag, but generally the larger items went into our string bags) in short order. This was never the case because the proprietor was invariably carrying on a con- versation with two or three friends or bystanders and then someone would try a word in English and the next thing we were exchanging cigarettes and carrying on a grinning kind of choppy conversation until we felt it was decently polite to break away. We always peeled the fruit or washed it in a foun- tain. Didn't see many flies but there were always wasps buzzing around the fruit. 2 3 Dining a la Carte Dinner was another matter. We stuck to the rule of one good meal a day and were critical in our choice of hotel or restaurant.-Pampered westerners like ourselves " dare take a chance on dropping into any little lishment. We are too germ-prone. some interesting places, all Turkish and the begin. In one restaurant'only water as a beverage because the owner had drank only water himself. It was here Dolmasi which turned out to be stuffed a 1g was ground lamb and rice and seasoning. The meats were usually lamb or veal. There was a of fish which had a delicate flavor and un- limited pastries, sickly sweet. Typical of these were Bak- real Turkish Delights, little pastries the size of stuffed with almonds, pistachios and wainuts in honey, and Kadin Gobegi (translated, "Lady's navel"), much same only in a swirl. What we call Turkish Delight, a confection of gelatine and sugar, is called Lokum. At the Abdullah I tried Su Boregi Peynirli which was a noodle-cheese pie; Halep Isi Kebab, ground meat cooked on a skewer with cubes of veal, pieces of tomato and pepper and covered with sour cream. There was an English translation of the dessert and it read '""Rawsberry Melba Coupe", so I ordered that and it gras ice cream piled with huge raspberries to; with whipped cream and all set in a flower-pot of solid ice. This was accompanied by little cookies called Viziers' Fingers. Other rare desserts were Kasandibi, a baked milk and egg dish like a thick pancake, served sprinkled with rose- water and icing sugar, and Tavuk Gogsu, a sweet made of milk, sugar and pounded chicken breast, the top faintly browned like a meringue. Kabak Tatlisi was pumpkin cooked with sugar and served with pounded walnuts. One night in the benevolence of a full moon, we took a boat across the Sea of Marmara to the Princes' Islands and on the largest of the three, under a vine-clad arbour beside the lapping water we were served a meai of 60 many courses I just can't remember them all. There were chopped cucumbers blended into yogurt with a whiff of garlic; chicken with a special sauce of pounded walnuts and paprika; dried bean salad with olive oil and hard- boiled eggs; fried anchovies; mussels stuffed with spiced rice and deep-fried in olive oil; stuffed green peppers and stuffed squash. It was here that I met a correspondent from Reuters, the international news agency and he gave me translations of some of the dishes. Hunkar Begendi ('His Majesty Liked It') was roasted meat with mashed egg plant; Imam Bayildi ('The Imam, the Turkish priest, liked it so much that he fainted') was an eggplant dish witH onions and tomato cooked in olive oil and served cold; Kadin Bubu (Lady's thigh) fried meat patties, very savory. Alive, Alive -- 0° On another trip up the Bosphorus we stepped ashore for lunch and found a dining room like a conservatory, all glass with a grape vine growing over the roof on the inside. We didn't know it but fish was the specialty here and instead of handing us the menu, the waiter called a busboy who carried a large tray of several kinds of fresh- caught fish. I didn't like the look in their eye much, so chose one that wasn't looking at me. Fried and served with lemon, parsley and sliced tomato, it was superb. All this was rather different from the meals we had in the Balkans. There was a standard hotel menu in book form with about forty pages and translations in French and German. Sometimes the translations were '"'literally" funny especially when "smoked sausage' appeared as "fumigated sausage". I counted 26 kinds of omelettes and 23 other ways with eggs including Mish-Mash with two eggs, what- ever that was. Serbian Confections There were 52 desserts listed not counting stewed fruit, fruit and ice cream. In Belgrade I discovered a novel called Triglav Pyramide, a pyramid built of choco- late and filled with coffee-flavored ice cream. In these countries we could live like kings on paupers' purses. We had beef Stroganoff for 75 cents; lamb ragout with fresh green beans for 65 cents. Of course vegetables, rolls, salad, dessert, coffee were all extras but my notes reveal that one night I had chicken soup containing half a chicken; veal tenderlojn with mushrooms, French fried potatoes, savory rice, zucchini squash, cognac and coffee for the princely sum Of $1.75 including the tip. The restaurants were always busy. The clientele would be drawn from the professional and governmental classes because the average workers earning about one dollar a day could not afford restaurant prices. This they told me gnd I told them I couldn't afford beef Stroganoff in To- either. Somehow that made us all feel better and we had another cup of Cafe Turque.

Any advice you can give me will be a help to me." My first advice to women who need help with this prob- lem is to change your present job aptitudes by picking up the cue employers are handing to this reader. Actually, what they're saying is: "Get more than one skill to offer, so when we're short on the filing work that a lot of peung girls can handle, you can elp out on the typing and be trained to do other things too." Many employers are demand- ing this of the people they hire because it makes better busi- hess sense to equip your office with people who have several skills. Therefore, when you're seeking a job make sure you have as much as possible to of- fer and don't let a closed mind stymie your job opportunities by insisting you want to do only one thing and that one thing only--particularly if that's what you used to do!

Dear Ann Landers: For the past three days I've received a teléphone call between 11 a.m. and 11:15 a.m. A cultured voice says: "I think you should know your husband is having an af- fair with his office manager." Then I hear a click and the party leaves the line. I've never had cause to sus- pect my husband of stepping out on me. He comes straight home from work and rarely goes any- where without me. His office manager is a di- vorced woman who is raising three children. She is dignified and reserved =nd has worked for my husband for five years. I know I should put these calls out of my mind but I can't, I haven't told my hus- band because it might upset him. The phone company says they can't trace a call unless the party stays on the line for 20 minutes. I need some guid- ance.--Unnerved Dear Unnerved: Tell your husband some nut has been calling you with a wild story about him and his office man- ager and you think he should be aware of it. Then get an un- listed phone number. Dear Ann Landers: I asked for your advice four years ago and didn't take it, Today I am writ- ing to tell you I am sorry. When you advise other girls not to force a marriage because a baby is on the way, I hope they will listen to you. I was only 16, scared, ignor- ant and so ashamed of having disgraced my family that I couldn't hold my head up, much less give them an argument.
