The following recipes were given men by a wonderful Scotch house- keeper. 1 publish them as copied from her cook-book:, Scotch Scones: "Sift together six teaspoons of sugar (granulated), two teaspoons of baking powder, two cups of bread flour and one-half teaspoon of salt; work into this with the fingers, two tablespoons of but- ter or lard, then add ome cup of milk mixed with one egg. Handle as' lightly as possible while rolling out and cutting.

Scotch Oat Cakes: In one cup of lukewarm water dissolve one-half teaspoon of sugar and one-third tea- spoon of salt. Put this into a mix- The Business of Being a Wife iy BY CYNTHIA GREY. After you have successfully married a man it's your job to make him happy. And if you don't succeed in doing that you fail just as a man fails in his bu- siness career. For a happy marriage just doesn't happen. It's made up of well-cooked meals and mended socks and sympa- thy and love and understanding and a few little incidentals like those. And your job'is to provide them. There is no "vamp" in the world to compare with the comfortable woman who puts the buttons in her lord's clean shirt every morning and keeps a corner of the living-room sacred to his old easy-chair, his ash-tray and his favorite magazines. The wife who be- lieves with Beatrice Forbes-Robertson Hale that two hours a day is all any woman needs to spend doing her housework will never have the kind of home that looks better to her husband than the club, the pool-room or the golf links. But that doesn't mean that there's not another side to life and marriage. There's the romantic side that really is the heart and soul of the institution. And if you want to keep that as it should be you have got to keep your- self the attractive woman your hus- band first fell in love with. You can't slump. For no man remains long in lave with a woman who is physically shab- by: If you have let your husband see you with" your hair uncombed, your face shining with ¢ald cream and your body swathed in a soiled kimono, you may depend upon it that you are no longer the woman of his dreams that you opce were--no matter what he may say to the contrary. And if you are letting your brain get into sloppy negligee hgbits you are making the mistake of your Men admire no one so much as they do a talker. When Lady Astor was last in this country, her audiences were largely men. To hold your husband's interest interest you must make yourself en- tertaining. Do you? For one thing, do y read the daily newspapers? Your husband does of course, and he knows what's happening in the world.

They go out every day to do work not half so interesting as your own varied task of housekeeping. You're in your own house, where you can keep your own hours, where you're free to stop any time for a tele- phone chat with Margie, for a stroll in, the park with the B inee. s Your husband probably has a "boss," and works under the strain of constant competition besides. Men's positions are far from being the sin- ecures we women imagine them to be. No man can go out in the morning and do his best work whose wife has just shown him a great sheaf of bills that can't be paid for months or who has cried because he can't afford to by her the new mandarin dress she craves. He is handicapped from the start. The woman who is doing everything in her_power to make her home a har- bor of peace and comfort, the one who sends her husband out to the daily battle freshened in body and spirit, is the only one who is horiestly keeping her part of the marriage contract. It's a woman-size job, this wife business. eauty A Gleamy Mass of Hair 35¢ "Danderine" does Wonders * for Any Girl's Hair ~ --- aby, or a mat- There is something wonderfully inion Linoleum floors.

WOMEN OF PARIS OBJECT TO MODES Paris, Nov. 6--~Winter styles are here, and with them has come a bitter fashion controversy. The "hat ques- tion" has arisen between the millin- ers on the one side and their custo- mers on the other. "Is the 1923-25 win- ter hat to be the tall Directorie crown and upturned brim, or the little cloche with fitted dome-crown?" The milliners have replied, it shall be the Directorie, and refuse to make any other kind. Paris women have ve- hemently objected, and the result has been that a surprisingly large number of straw hats continues to be worn, and the time honored custom of donn- ing velvet hats on the first day of September has been broken. At the opening of the fall racin, it was no! ell with velvet hats. one of the most women son for her e to adopt the This probably sums up «It makes me look 66 y fashionable d trimming at the side 'or directly in 1 | See Us When In Need Of Lamps The next few weeks will decide whe- | ji front, but the round crowns, what few there are to be seen, carry their orna- mentation on the top. ther it is to be "the Directorie" or "the cloche" hat.
