EASY COOKEfG. One of the great advantages to the housewife in using the foreciuarter and less expensive cuts of beef is that she can put them in the tireless cooker in the morning, go off and leave them all day, gently simmering, and come home to find a perfectly cooked, delicious dish reads to serve. In these days of many activities and interests for up-and- doing -women, this is quite an advantage, and when one becomes accustomed to exercising forethought in the. matter of selection it is the much simpler way to plan. The first chuck steak is a popular dish that can be prepared hours before serving and put to cook in the fireless cooker, with assurance that it will be deliriously flavored and tender at the moment needed.

Chuck pot roast perhaps a more pretentious dish. "With the house all in order and the table partially laid, all the marketing done, salad materials in the refrigerator, ready for the last preparation, and a delicious pot roast in the cooker, one can go to a class, a matinee or a club meeting, with no worry as to the dinner. The writer has noticed on many rceasions at committee meetings and directors' of various clubs find organizations the ease and assurance with which women say, "Oh, 1 can stay until just before dinner time--my dinner will be all ready when I get home: it's in the fireless cooker This has induced many a woman to get cooking directions and either buy or make a r.reless cooker and learn how to prepare the chuck, rump and shank cuts of beef. There is the plate, also, that can be prepared into delicious dishes and cooked in the fireless cooker. The plate is ideal for'meat pies, ragouts, stuffed roll and braised, goulash and stew--all of these are popular with the men of the family, if properly seasoned and served, after the long, moist cooking.

SPAIN TO ST-VRT CAMPAIGN FOR SUFFRAGE. MADRID, Aug. feminist societies in Spain have decided 10 start a vigorous campaign throughout the country in favor of woman suffrage and the equalization of legal rights. Yeomen orators, many of whom attended the recent international woman's congress at Geneva will tour the country on be- lialf of the movement. CHILD FEUDIXG.

The fundamental principle in child feeding is the gradual development the digestive powers. A normal child fed upon his mother's milk doubles in weight in the first six months of his life, largely because his food is adapted to his needs. Never will he double his so rapidly again. Evaporated milk is the best canned milk to include in the diet of the child. It is the same as fresh milk with the water removed, containing, in a condensed form, all the foods for which we so value the fresh product.

As the child grows older, he should be gradually given a variety in the diet, and, above all, trained to eat what is put before him without comment.

BIG CITY'S FOOD INSPECTION. In the effort 1o safeguard the food Fntpply of New York 13,323 samples wore analyzed by the cily chemists and a iclofc watch was knpt on the city's 2 drug stores toi adulterated goods. Advertisement The Letters of Natalie Dear Evelyn: Can you realize that the twins are years old" I wish you could have seen Bronson gallantly seating me at table yesterday, when they entertained mo with ice cream. Everybody in the place was impressed--indeed, same of them choked, tiring to conceal their interest. That wasn't necessary, if they had only known Bronson and Bettina, who are interested in all the world and take it as a matter of course that the world should reciprocate.

All good things come to an end and so did the ice cream. They motored me home, Edith at tho wheel. stopping only a moment to take homo some flowers. (But when they were gone I discovered a parcel left behind, addressed to me. It was an adorable flesh cre-pe de chine nightgown, embroidered in flesh silk, with yoke and insertion of soft cream lace.

Edith had been talking of the newest models in wash satin and silk lingerie, which she had seen in Alice Doyle's shop at the corner of Main and Bank streets; rare qualities of silk and satin, some with Georgette hems combining harmonious tones of color. Wasn't that a nice birthday gift, a gmvn like that? Arrived at home I found mother making preparations for a dinner party the family had planned at my house. That was one reason why tho twins had entertained me in town. It was a day of surprises. Going to my room to dress I that some fairy had removed the commonplace electric light fixtures and substituted some that I had recently admired.

Mother Bab and I were in the interesting shop of the Abercrombie-Bock Electric company, at the corner of Broad and John streets, when I saw these--a shower of three lights with translucent shades bordered by pink roses, exquisitely softened by the light shining through the glass. In silver, antique bronze and brass, with art porcelain or silk shades, fixtures for every purpose are shown in tho roomy basement of this shop. I had said I wished I had these for my bedroom and Mother Bab had remembered. We had a i party ending with dancing. Even lather indulged in a Highland fling.

Pa Two dared him to repeat the performance some Thursday evening at the Pergola Tea Room in Black Rock, when the talent of a string orchestra of young men would be there to bade up his efforts. It seems they have this orchestra there every Thursday evening for dancing, if the guests feel inclined. A party of young people are to have a dance there this week Thursday, I hear. It is just the sort ot place mothers would be glad to have their boys and girls choose for the purpose. A club of women is to give a whist party there next Tuesday afternoon.

The popularity of Mrs. Lewis' home cooked menus grows daily. Sweetcorn is served now, among other good thing's. There are frequent calls for Noble 1455, with orders for lunch, tea or supper, according to the hour. This tea room.

on Fairfield avenue, just east of Ash Creek, keeps convenient hours, from 10 a. m. to 10 p. m. But father declined the opportunity to exhibit his ability.

He offered to train Fluff for public dancing though, contending that he is getting too fat. 'I used to scold Fluff for excursions off into muddy places after which he sought my handsomest rugs and pillows on which to wipe his feet. But now he is getting so indolent. I almost wish he would take to exploring again, even if it did add somewhat to the bill I get periodically from the Lewandos dyeing and cleaning establishment in the Court Exchange building. He never did any damage that they couldn't repair with their expert knowledge.

I hate to think that Fluff may bo growing oM. Well, I'll take him for a walk. Love Special Lot of Women's Oxfords and Pumps Reduced to $9.95 In this special group are gun metal and patent leather, plain opera pumps. All leather 5'Baby French" heels. Formerly $12.20.
