I STRIKE YOUR OWN NOTE.
J By DOROTHY DIX, the World's Highest Paid Woman Writer.
I get a ureal man letters from girls
askinc me why they are wallflowers
Ther Bay they are Just as good looking,
just kb intelligent, just as well dresse,;,
just as well placed socially as the
other girls in their set, yet while ih
other :;irls have beaus a-plenty, ihey
neer receive an attention iron) men.
3 No youth ever camps under their pink
shaded lamps, or brings them candy, nr.
takes them joy-ridin;i, and when the
; go to parties no man ever asks them
to dance unless he Is peaded into do
I I ing so by his hostess. And tbey want
to know why this is thu
No one can speak with real nuthor
i , jty in attempting to explain why a
wallflower is a wallflower any more
than they can tell why a peach is a.
peach. Probably it is just because
rod hath made them bo Certain! u J
man really knows what it is that at
tracts htm to one girl, and sends him
flying away from another.
It isn't cleverness. It isn't amiabil
ity. It Isn't talent. It isn't even
beauty, because we all know girls who
are pretty and bright and who can sine
and dance lilfe professionals, and wno
' flres.j like fashion plates. 'whom men I
avoid as if they had the plague, and
v v " -Vvy-. . - NVAwAA
.other pirls who .ire Just plain ordinary
girls, of the common or garden var
letj whom men flock about as bees
do about a honey pol
As near as I can come to sohinp
this difficult problem it seems to me
that tin- trouble with the wallflower
girl is that -he I n ks personality-- that
mysterious something in a human be
inu thai is different from every other'
human being, and thai arrests our at
tention, and piques our curiosity and
that sets us wonderinc what manner
of man or woman he or she i, und
sets us to guessing what he or she- is
going to do mwr
Especially is this quality of person
ality valuable in a girl, for most young
girls are just as much alike as peas
in a pod They are little copy cats
who dress, comb their hair, talk and
think alike, and use the same words,
and are such counterparts of each oth
er that you wonder their own mothers
can tell them apart
My observation is that the girl who
is overlooked by men is invariably a j
girl who is just one of this mob of
youthful femininity She represents
the monotony of girlhood. She is ju.-t
the general average, and she passes
unnoticed in the crowd, because thre
in nothing to distinguish her from all
the balance.
NOW, it is self evident thai 11 i girl
in a roe bud garden of girls wishes
to attract the attention of any Romeo
who may be strolling through it. the
surest and quickest way to do it is to
cease to be a rose, and to be some
thine elso. in a rose garden von
iniLht not observe a superlatively per
fect rose, but your eye would inevit
ably be caught, by a lily or a sun
flower Therefore, the wallflower girl who
wishes to take herself out of the wall
flower class should devote herself to
cultivating personam J and she can
do this best when she learns how to
strike her own note which means de
veloping her strongest characteristic
to it highest point of expression.
Most cirls who are not admired by
men understudy the ways of some girl
who is a belle. This is a mistak- Imi
tations are never attractive. No false
gun flashes with the brilliancy of the
real.
A little five foot slim girl ran look
cute when she curls up in the corner
of the sofa and sits on one foot, but
when a great big Amazonian female
attempts the trick she doesn't look
like a playful kitten She looks like a
performing elephant.
Similarly, when a child-like, big
eyed, clinging little thing weep.; over
some silly trifle it makes a man want
to put bia arm around her and invito
her 10 sob on his shouldei, but when
a large, dignified, young woman bc
glne to Bniffle ever man who b hold.
it simply aches to tell her not to art
like a fool
In like manner the girl who is na
turalh vivacious, whose blood is quick
silver and whose laughter bubbles
spontaneously over her lips, fascinates
us with her gayiety. but when ihe Bald,
sober, unhumorous girl tries to effer
vesce she is the stalest, flattest thing
in thi- world. She's loud and hysteri

HOT CROSS BUNS
Hot cross bunt, hot cross buns
One a penny, two a penny, hot cross,
buns '
' So runs the old nursery rhyme and
so one hears the costermongers in
Kneland crying their wares on Good
Friday
These delicious buns may be easlls
made at home if the following rule is'
used :
One cake of compressed yeast, one
capful of sweet milk, one lablespoonful
of sugar, one-fourth cupful of butter
one egg. four CUpfulfl of flour, one
third cupful of sugar, one-half tea- j
spoonfl of salt, one-half cupful of rais
ins, one tea;poonful of cinnamon and
one-half toapsoonful of nutmeg.
Scald thp milk and then let it cool
uniil it is just lukewarm. Dissolve in
this the yeast cake and the tablespoon -ful
of sugar, then stir into it one and
one-half cupfuls of the flour Beat
until smooth, cover and set in a warm
space until it is very light and well
tilled with bubbles, (.'ream the but
ter and sugar and add the beaten egc I
When the sponge is light beat this into
it. add the salt, spices and raisins
(these must be cut fine, or, if one
wishes, currants may be used,) and'
use enough of the flour to make t
soft dough. Set in a warm place un- j
til double in size. Roll out into a'
Bfieel about one-half an Inch thick and I
cut into round shapes with a large
biscuit cutter. Lay in a buttered bak-
ing pan two inches apart, cover and
let rise again. When light brush over,
with white of egg diluted with Water,
make a cross on top of each and bake,
in moderate oven. Just before reino -ing
from the oven cover the top with
confectioners' sugar moistened with
sweet milk.
In some remote par's of ICnsland
among the uneducated people hot cross
buns are considered too sacred to be j
eaen tit a nieil n; fnnH imt ihv avr
carefully baked each holy week and j
religiously preserved to be given as a
panacea for various ills the flesh may
fall heir to during the ensuing year.

SHOE LACES
When the tin on the end of a shoe
lace comes off, overcast the end of1
the lace immediately with thread, then
wind the thread around it several
times and continue overcasting until
you are sure the threads are securely
fastened so they will not unravel. You
will not only lace tip the shoe easier,
but the lace will last quite a long
time.
Novel Use Found
For Seaweed by
English People
LONDON. April 17 A novel use
has been found here for seaweed. Com
bined with crushed slag and other
heretofore neglected waate mineral
product., ii is used to make a kind of
concrete out of which are being fash
oned building bricks and blocks The
seaweed acts as a binding and
strengthening element.
Arrangements are being made m put
up a large number of houses composed
entirely of these blocks, and it is pre
dicted that the material, owing to its
cheapness, will aid in solving the
housing problem.
Not only the foundations and walls,
but the doors, window frames and mUQ
tc l-pieres are to be constructed of the
m v. concrete. The houses are to be
made in sections and bolted together.
The window-frame is a new idea in
itself. The glass. In one large pane,
slips Into a slot and the edges of mold
ing are then turned over, so as to grip
It To mend a broken window will be
a simple matter and will not require
the services of a glazier
It Is said that dwellings made of the
concrete will be warm and thoroughly

HARD HIT
All over the country the cash and carry stores are hard hit. Many arc quitting because they I
cannot compete with the service stores. The American people want service. They arc willing to
pay a fair price for it. They have been led to believe, by the cash and carry stores in misleading I
advertisement, that they can save a lot, but the facts show that the saving is so small that it is
insignificant. The cash and carry storees are continually putting out misleading advertisements ot
various kinds to discredit the regular stores. They live by misrepresenting. As soon as the people 1
get wise to their methods their business drops off, in many cases so much so that they move to
new localities. They know this and govern themselves accordingly by making it a point to spend
no money for permanent improvements that they can possibly avoid.
One of their long suits in advertising is to bolittle the regular dealers in every way they can.
A conspicuous example of this was pulled off a short time ago right here in Ogden. Monogram
Flour was selected as the "goat." This store knew that practically all stores handled Monogram
Floor. The cash and carry store was handling a particular brand of flour that they advertised as
"hard wheat" flour. Now nearly all the flour in this market is made from the same kind of
wheat in the same kind of mills and in the same way. We believe they are all good. In fact if the
flour was changed from one sack to another it is doubtful if anyone could tell the difference, even
under the most severe test. At this particular time the Monogram flour was apparently having the
largest sare among the retailers. No one was paying any attention to this particular store for sell
ing his flour at any price he saw fit, but he thought to discredit the other stotres with the public
by trying to make them think they were being "held up," The wholesale price of Monogram . B
flour at that time was $4.80 per hundred (2 sack) in small lots of a ton or less and $4.70 in larger I
quantities. He bought a quantity and put it on cnle at $4,70, exactly cost. The flour that he had
the exclusive sale on we are told cost just the same and he had been selling it at $5.00. Some of
the stores were selling Monogram for S5.25 (our price was $5 00) which included the service. Now, ll
he had a right to sell Monogram at cost or at any other price if he so desired. His idea was n
to create the impression that he was making a profit on Monogram and that the other dealers
were holding you up. Re did not reduce the price on his regular flour that cost the same. (He
has since advanced the price, although the wholesale price has not changed )
Now we know that you want to get your goods a3 cheap as you can, and when anything like
this comes up it is your privilege to take advantage of it and save all you can. But you have
quite a different feeling towards your grocer in taking advantage of these bargains. You know
that he has not been ' holding you up" but only getting a legitimate profit.
We are not telling you these things to discred t anyone, but simply to let you know now the
oter fellow tries to discredit us,
For our regular Saturday trade we have secured some of the "Blue Ribbon" steers that were
on exhibition at the Salt Lake Stock Show Weare putting them on sale at no extra price :
Round Steak ?oe
Chuck Steak 25r
. Pot Roasts 25c
Rump Roasts 2S and 30r
Sirloin and T-bone Steak 45c
These are some of the choicest cattle oqv put on the jl
the market.
For our special counter we will have some very nice meat at the same prices as heretofore :
Round Steak 25
Chuck Steak 22r
Pot Roasts 20c fl
and many other things at bargain prices
Our grocery prices are always about the same as the cash and carry stores with no charge
for service Our Groceteria prices are cheaper than anywhere else. Come and see for yourself.
