At the same store I found an at¬ tractive foulard in nary blue and a jersey sport dress in Pekin blue. At another store were attractive combinations of plain and flowered Georgette*, finished with white Geor¬ gette vests and small collars. Tkree-is-Oae Dress. For those desiring sport dresses I found some very attractive models. One model with a crepe de chine skirt of white had a Jacket of khaki kool printed with a dark blue dia¬ mond-shaped figure. This little ooat- blouse had a combination vest of the khaki kool and crepe de chine. A bisque shantung sport suit had a roll collar extending to the bottom of the coat and was finished with one of those attractive cuff hems. Other at¬ tractive models came in the pure white and plain colors self-trimmed with folds, tucks or bias bands. These sport models are a most use¬ ful addition to any wardrobe, as they are really "three-ln^one" dresses. They may be worn Intact, or the coat-blouse may be discarded for a lingerie waist worn with the skirt. In this way the suit supplies its owner with a dressy skirt to combine with fine separate waists? a one-piece coat dress; a three-piece suit when the sport blouse Is worn over a'thin waist as a Jacket Back OmU *2.1.00 Don't forget all these dresses 1 have described are shown In local stores at the moderate price of 125. though they bound like more money.

Set the Jars on a rack In the wash boiler, with about three Inches of water In the vessel, adjust the cover and boil for 30 minutes. Remove the cover of the boiler, screw the tops of the Jars tightly and let stand In the boiler until next day. Then partly unscrew the lids and cook again for 30 minutes, counting from the time the water begins to boil. Repeat the boiling on the third day, replace the rubbers with new ones. If necessary, add boiling water to fill the Jars, and seal. Safeguards. Dear Aflse L»: I am to be married anon to a man who is known by a name that is not his onn. He wishes to be married under this name. Ia It aa/e to marry him tinder a false namet Would the marriage be lrgal ?.Anxious. While the marriage would be legal, regardless of the names used, it would be much better for your fiance to use his real name. If there is any good reason for using the name ht is known by at present, he should go to Probate Court and have the use of the name legalized before his marriage. Unless he al¬ ready has done so. ht should ex¬ plain to you fully the circumstances which led him to change his name. You then will be able to Judge whether there Is reason connected with this change which would make it inadvisable for you to marry him. , Ffat So Hard.

It's as much your duty to respond as it was to do any of the things you did during the war that showed Uncle Sam he could depend on his daughters just as he could upon his sons. This new duty is to help return¬ ing soldiers get jobs. / You will you are not an employer of labor, that you don't even keep a kitchen maid. But you are the great indi¬ rect employer of labor, because you are the power behind the man who hires the worker. Did you ever stop to think that women like yourself really have the spending of all the money in the world? Except for his vices and his clothes, the average man doesn't spend a dollar of what he earns. It's his wife who decides on the' house they buy, the. kind of an automobile they keep, the piano they purchase. It is she who buys groceries, and the furniture, and picks out the schools the children attend, and selects the doctor they call in. f V That ia why the government called on the women to save when it needed- billions of dollars for the war, and it n>g tbM» am- to spend all they can reasonably afford. The soldiers are coming back at the rate of 500,000 or 400,000 a month. It's up to us to show our apprecia¬ tion by doing something practical for them, and the War Department has pointed out the way in which it can be done. It is by having: done now all the things that need to be done. It is Just as much your patriotic duty now to help make work for the returning soldiers as it was to buy Liberty bonds. Uncle Sam asks it of you. Have a regular orgy of fix¬ ing things up. It will improve your own morale to b%splck-and-span once more, and it will save the morale of the men wlyo ave come back from the front with nothing to do and the neceaaity of beginning life over again.

TAMING MY HUSBAND' By KATHLEEN FOX There wa# an engineer to Critten¬ den's employ who held a high and trusted position for so young a roan. Crittenden often spoke of Jack L*anjr- ley. He was very fond of him. "Jack's only 36 and I'll bet there isn't an engineer in the city Jhat can beat him at his particular line of work." he observed one evening. "He has traveled a bit in his work having spent a couple of years in Japan and one in South Africa. We've just taken him into our club." I have not met Mr. Langley. ..Why don't you bring him out to dinner some' time?" I asked. The idea struck Crittenden favorably. "I shall." ha agreed. "You'll like him. Bess." MARKET TIPS FOR LOCAL HOUSEWIVES Strawberries took a noticeable drop in price yesterday, according to the Bureau of Markets. They were sell¬ ing at 15 to 30 cents per quart, accord¬ ing to quality, on the local market stands. This noticeable drop in prico, said the bureau, was due to the in¬ flux of local berries. The season is now at its height and housewives who are planning to can berries should not delay longer, as from now on this fruit will become noticeably more scarce. Akudaat. Strawberries, lettuce, radishes, white potatoes, lemons, cucumbers, green beans, tomatoes, peas. formal.

tractive foulard in nary blue and ajersey sport dress in Pekin blue.At another store were attractive
combinations of plain and floweredGeorgette*, finished with white Geor¬gette vests and small collars.
Tkree-is-Oae Dress.For those desiring sport dresses I
found some very attractive models.One model with a crepe de chineskirt of white had a Jacket of khakikool printed with a dark blue dia¬mond-shaped figure. This little ooat-blouse had a combination vest of thekhaki kool and crepe de chine.A bisque shantung sport suit had a
roll collar extending to the bottom ofthe coat and was finished with one ofthose attractive cuff hems. Other at¬tractive models came in the pure whiteand plain colors self-trimmed withfolds, tucks or bias bands.These sport models are a most use¬
ful addition to any wardrobe, as theyare really "three-ln^one" dresses. Theymay be worn Intact, or the coat-blousemay be discarded for a lingerie waistworn with the skirt. In this way thesuit supplies its owner with a dressyskirt to combine with fine separatewaists? a one-piece coat dress; a
three-piece suit when the sport blouseIs worn over a'thin waist as a Jacket

Jars to overflowing with the waterin which the asparagus was boiled,put on rubbers and place the glassor screw tops loosely In place.

Removethe cover of the boiler, screw thetops of the Jars tightly and letstand In the boiler until next day.Then partly unscrew the lids andcook again for 30 minutes, countingfrom the time the water begins toboil. Repeat the boiling on thethird day, replace the rubbers withnew ones. If necessary, add boilingwater to fill the Jars, and seal.
Safeguards.Dear Aflse L»: I am to be married anon to a
man who is known by a name that is not hisonn. He wishes to be married under this name.Ia It aa/e to marry him tinder a false nametWould the marriage be lrgal ?.Anxious.While the marriage would be
legal, regardless of the names used,it would be much better for yourfiance to use his real name. If thereis any good reason for using thename ht is known by at present, heshould go to Probate Court andhave the use of the name legalizedbefore his marriage. Unless he al¬ready has done so. ht should ex¬plain to you fully the circumstanceswhich led him to change his name.You then will be able to Judgewhether there Is reason connectedwith this change which would makeit inadvisable for you to marryhim. ,

Undersuch circumstanccs you merely goto the men with whom you ex¬changed dances and explain the sit¬uation. The men then dance w4ththe girls they have escorted thedances they would have had withyour partner.. No offense could pos¬sibly be taken at this.

The government is making a lastappeal to the women for help. It'sas much your duty to respond as itwas to do any of the things youdid during the war that showedUncle Sam he could depend on hisdaughters just as he could upon hissons.
This new duty is to help return¬ing soldiers get jobs. / You willyou are not an employer of labor,that you don't even keep a kitchenmaid. But you are the great indi¬rect employer of labor, because youare the power behind the man whohires the worker.Did you ever stop to think that
women like yourself really havethe spending of all the money inthe world? Except for his vicesand his clothes, the average mandoesn't spend a dollar of what heearns. It's his wife who decideson the' house they buy, the. kind ofan automobile they keep, the pianothey purchase. It is she who buysgroceries, and the furniture, andpicks out the schools the childrenattend, and selects the doctor theycall in.
fV
That ia why the government calledon the women to save when it needed-billions of dollars for the war, andit n>g tbM» am- to
spend all they can reasonably afford.The soldiers are coming back at
the rate of 500,000 or 400,000 a month.It's up to us to show our apprecia¬tion by doing something practical forthem, and the War Department haspointed out the way in which it canbe done. It is by having: done nowall the things that need to be done.
It is Just as much your patrioticduty now to help make work for thereturning soldiers as it was to buyLiberty bonds. Uncle Sam asks itof you. Have a regular orgy of fix¬ing things up. It will improve yourown morale to b%splck-and-span oncemore, and it will save the moraleof the men wlyo ave come back fromthe front with nothing to do and theneceaaity of beginning life over again.

"Hehas traveled a bit in his work havingspent a couple of years in Japan andone in South Africa. We've justtaken him into our club."I have not met Mr. Langley. ..Whydon't you bring him out to dinner
some' time?" I asked. The idea struckCrittenden favorably."I shall." ha agreed. "You'll like
him. Bess."
