WHEN JOHNNY DREAMS
WHO SHOULD BE THE
HEAD OF THE FAMILY
Isn't it a pretty safe bet that
the man or woman who wnsts
time worrying about who is head
of the family is the one least
qualified for the Job?
Take the woman who thinks
her husband Is the same as a
horse and entitled to decent
treatment only in view of the
support rendered.- The more blat
antly she asserts she is "boss"
the more likely she is to pro
claim to the world her "depend
ent condition" in the most humili
ating terms if there are a few dol
lars to be gained. It is the wom
an who neglects her duties to
harp on the so-called "Independ
ence" of mere man that is surest
to be on the job with a lawyer
and alimony suit when the mat
rimonial ship goes on the rocks.
Certainly the man who Is content
to accept woman as his equal and
looks to her tor aid in his efforts
to put marriage on a more equa
ble basis is entitled to expect
more consistency than this.
JUST A MAN.
We haven't much sympathy to
waste on the man who is stickler
for his prerogatives as head of
the family. Still, if he is to be
shorn of this, and woman at the
same time purposes to retain her
lien on him, for which he has no
corresponding ties on her, just
what is his status to be? After
all, men are not drones. They
are doing by far the larger part
of the world's really important
industrial and professional work
and should be accorded some con
sideration in the new scheme of
things.
Of course, I am speaking in
general terms only, for a man is
doing his work in this world, and
doing it well, surely will get what
is coming to him both in his home
and elsewhere, and the same goes
for a woman.
After all, in the home -where
there la mutual confidence, and
a disposition on the part of both
to live within their means and
promote one another's welfare,
do you suppose there is much
worrying done about "who is
boss?"
DIVORCED MAN.
In a recent publication I note
with pleasure that the nature side
is open in the "head of the fam
ily" and also someone mentioned
science. How nice!
Did you ever hear an old hunt
er tell why the female la more to
be feared than the male? Then
ask one, and you will find It 1b
not the fight they put up, but the
way they go about it. The fe
male is the most treacherous. She
lays in wait, and does not hunt.
Just one thing more. Some
body has greatly deceived some
of our readers by selling or dis
tributing fairy stories under the
head of science and nature.
THE TACOMA TIMES.
Snturday Cookies.
Measure three tablespoonfuls
of butter and put in a saucepan
on the stove to melt. Put three
quarters of a cup of granulated
sugar in a mixing bowl and. add
the melted butter, rubbing them
together well with a wooden
spoon. Add to this one-half tea
spoonful of vanilla extract. Break
an egg into another bowl and beat
it with an egg beater until it Is
quite light. Add this to the but
ter and sugar, and beat together
with a spoon. Get board and
rolling pin ready .butter baking
titis and see that oven is hot.
Dissolve one-quarter of a tea
sroonful of cooking soda In a
tablespoonful of hot water. Sift
some flour and measure one and
one-half cupfuls into a bowl. Sirt
a second time with a quarter of
a teaspoonful of salt added. Add
f=ix teaspoonsfuls of rich milk to
the soda water and add to the
first mixture, at the same trme
turning in the flour. Roll out
the dough less than half an inch
thick; cut with cooKy cutter
spread on buttered tins and bake
in hot oven 15 minutes.
TACK GLASS OK CHINA
If glass or china is to be packed
for a long-distance travel place it
in straw or hay which has been
slightly damp. This will prevent
the article from slipping about.
Allow the largest and heaviest to
be placed at the bottom of the
box. Use plenty of straw and
wrap each article separately.
Now, there is a book published
that has stood the fire of almost
one hundred generations, and has
not been so badly shattered
either, and to our friends who
have been deceived by later pub
lications, I wish to introduce the
Holy Kible. Yours, SA.
THE NEEDLE
Dainty strings of baby's caps
may be made from sheer lawn
neckties with embroidered ends
that, aro out in hailf and sewed
to each side of the little cap.
When stitching seams on the
machine in a silk garment use
either fine cotton or one-thread
cotton and the other of silk. This
obviates any puckering of the
seams.
Pillow case tubbing makes
practical petticoats for small chil
dren. The material is gathered
into a band or low-necked sleeve
less waist and *: '.nmed around
the bottom with a frill of laoe or
embroidery. This makes an easy
garment to iron, as it hasn't any
seams.
Instead of sewing frills of lace
into the sleeves of your dresses
stitch the lace to strips of marrow
tape and baste that into the
dresses. It can be easily taken
out and laundered.
To thread a needle with woolen
thread or zephyr, thread It first
with a strand of fine cotton,
doubled, then catch the wcxiis-*
thread through the loop in the
doubled end of the cotton and
pull it through the eye of the
needle.
TEA-MAKING HINTS
Use water which has just come
to the boll, but which hag "not
been boiled before or allowed to
slmnier on the stove for some
time.
Warm the teapot by pouring In
hot water a few minutes before
the tea is required and allow It
to remain in the pot until the tea
is made.
Allow one teaspoonful of tea
to each person with one extra one.
Pour boiling water and allow to
stand for throe to five minutes.
Fill the teapot or the tea will
cool rapidly.

Ayer"s Cherry Pectoral for coughs and
cold*, we would not offer it to you.

Wtl K\ IS IT RIGHT, AND
WHKN WItONG
Dear Miss Grey: If a boy
friend is sk-k in bed, is It
proper for a girl to go to see
him? And how often should
she go? And is it all right
to send him • basket of
frnlt? N. li.
A. —If the boy is a manly one,
and you are both pure-minded,
the fact that he is sick in bed
should not effect either; but even
the great teacher Jesus tells us
to be "as wise as serpents, and as
harmless as doves," so it is often
best to comply in part at least
with conventions.
It Is lovely to visit the sick,
read a chapter or two in a good
book; take a fine bit of verse, or,
as you suggest, a basket of fruit.
Ask his mother if he would like
you to read and ask her to come
to hear the story. If you will do
it in this impersonal way it does
not matter how often you go; but
remember you must keep your
thoughts far above the physical,
and be filled with the desire to
help, not only him, but every suf
fering creature. The least touch
of spooniness will spoil the whole
thing. You see how much de
pends on whether or not you are
sensible, or silly.
"AS WE SOW, SO SHALL
WE HEAP"
Dear Mis* Grey: lam a
young man of '-5- ami about a
year ago I was very Impru
dent. I took a girl friend
out riding and fur from town
had a breakdown. We were
forced to spend most of the
night in (lie car.
'■' Now, that girl is the
mother of my child. Miss
Grey, plcaso advise me what
is right to do. 1 am now
I engaged to marry another
girl whom 1 love very dear
l.v. Will I have to give her
up and marry the other?
Please print your answer
very soon. S. M. C.
A. —If you do what is right
you will give the little human be
ing for whoso existence you and
its mother are responsible, a
fair start in life by legally be
stowing your name and support
upon it.
, THE KEASON HOME NKV
KR GET AN EDUCATION"
Dear Miss Grey: We are
two girls aged 10 years. Wo
are very nice looking. Dark
brown hair ami blue eyes.
There are two boys in this
town that we are very much
in love with. We want you
to Rive us some advice to win
their lore. They always '
speak so nice to us when they
meet us.
DOLIiY AND BLUB EYES.
A.—Really, girls as old as you
two should be ashamed to be so
silly. Do you know you spelled
"advice" with an "b"? Think of
it! In America, where everyone
can have a free education, too.
Girls of 16 are wasting their
time chasing a false concept of
"love," to the sacrifice of know
ing how to spell correctly the sim
plest words. Get busy with a
blue-back speller.
SHOVED A MAN MARRY
A WOMAN WHO IS HIS
SENIOR?
Dear Miss tirey: lam a
young man of SO and am go
ing with a young lady '-■%. I
love her dearly. Do you
think it all right for a couple
to marry when the lady la
three years older? R. M. D.
A. —It is disposition and char
acter that count, and not a few
years difference la ages.
SENSIBLE GIRLS CAN AL
WAYS HAVE COMPANY
Dear Miss Grey: I have
been reading your letters and
see you give such good advice
mo I am going to ask for a
little, too.
I am a girl of 17 and I
have a very dear friend, and
my father will not let him
come to my home to see me.
I have to see him away from
home when my father does
not know about it.
Now, Miss Grey, please tell
mo what to do, for I can't
give him up, and I do not
' like to do things against my
, father's will, Please answer
« soon.

Immediately rid yourself of that
"broken-hearted" rot.
I don't wonder your father and
brother won't allow you company
at home. Show them my answer,
and tell them you are going to
be sensible, and that I say as
long as you keep your word and
are not silly and mushy with the
young men they should be allowed
to see you at home.
SPECIAL DELIVERY LOVE
DOES NOT LAST
I'imi- Miss Grey: lam a
true lovrr of tJie world's
good, and I am in love with a
nice girl of 17 and I think
slu- loves me.
She was here in my home
town, but is home with her
parents now. She did not ask
me to write, hut I lore her
dearly I feel I must write
and tell her of my love for
her. Will it be proper and
right to do so? Please re
mi-niiHT 1 truly love her and
am always happy in her com
pany. She is only 17 and
1 am 25. Is there too much
difference in our ages to
marry? Ki'fim
A CH HISTIAN LOVEH.
A. —You don't need to be a
fool because you are a Christian
and have good motives. Don't
rush in where angels fear to
tread. Drop the girl a postal, or
write a sensible, friendly letter,
learn to know each other gradu
ally. Special delivery, post-haste
love docs not last.
This girl is too young for a
lover, especially a hot-headed one.
You are older, and should be
more sensible.
MAKE BIRDS PHOTOGRAPH THEMSELVES
Photography lias become so common that now even the birds
of the air are taking pictures of themselves.
Of course the birds do not use the pictures to decorate tneir
nests —but they do all the
work of making the ex
posure, and the man who
owns the camera reaps
the benefit of their labor.
The man is required to
give a little assistance in
the way of placing the
camera and fixing things
so that the bird can put
In the final touch. Any-
Sic can impress the birds
to service for this pur
pose with the aid of a
little electrical device that
is shown in the sketch.
The shutter of the
Era is actuated by a
a which is used to
air into the rubber
qbe attached to the shut
r. The bird alights on
a limb, which causes the
electrical connection through a powerful magnet. This trips a trig
ger which holds the piston in place, the spring doing the rest.
The device is quite simple for any person familiar with such
ordinary electrical work as wiring a bell, and excellent results are
Obtained. Of course the camera is focused accurately on the spot
where the bird alights. Sometimes it is necessary to wait for hours
to set such a picture, and then again a bird will be attracted to the
place almost as soon as the camera is set.
