IDEAL IN HOUSEKEEPING.
Many of the Old Custom* and Con
ditions Are Passing Entire
ly Away.
A generation ago to be an ideal house
keeper was the chief ambition of almost
every woman. No girl desired a fairer j
fate than to be placed at the head of a j
household with a good and loving hus
band to supply all her wants and make
her the mistress and the queen of his
heart and his home. In most cases, says
the Peoria Herald Transcript, the girl j
who started housekeeping had more or
less experience in theart under the tuition
| of her mother. She loved to decorate and
i beautify the house which was to be her
I home during the rest of her earthly pil- j
grimage. She loved to create delicacies
for her husband and her children, and,
disguise it as we may, much of the af
fection she received was due entirely to |
her skill as a homemaker. When her
children grew up around her this kind
and sympathetic mother and the pantry j
' were the chief attractions in their world.
As they grew older the ties only grew the |
j stronger. When they acquired families |
j of their own the old homestead, with
Its abundance of good things, still had I
attractions for them. The kind old
J mother was still their best friend. She
j knew all the difficulties they had to en-1
counter in starting homes of their own, j
and her advice and sympathy were
worth more to them than gold. The
j grandchildren came to venerate her as a
l sort of venerable goddess, and when
j she finally went away from the home |
j circle she left a vacancy which could I
I never be filled.
But we are assured with every symp- j
| tom of rejoicing that these conditions!
j are passing; that women have been
fimancfnated : that in the future thev are
to be the rival, instead of the helpmate,
of man, and that they must combine to
enforce their just demands against the
hostility of the male sex. This is non- j
: sense pure and simple. It may be true |
; that there are more mannish women inj
| this generation than there were In the!
; last. It is unfortunately true that a i
| larger proportion of the female popula-1
tlon has been forced to he self-support
ing, hut it Is not true that women enjoy
. the so-called “liberty” which goes with
tolling for a living.
The home Instinct is too deeply
planted in the heart of women to be re
moved by the effects of a generation of
club work. It will never be removed. A
I few women may go after strange gods, |
but the natural, wholesome girl will still
j find her highest ideal of happiness in
a good husband and a cozy home. The
; clubs may succeed in making such homes
Impossible to a few men and women by
j making the young women feel that they
! have a more important work In the
> world than the prosaic duty of home
i making, but among the masses of the
I American people the mother will con
1 tinue to be the bond which unites the
unities of that holy institution the fam
! lly, and she will continue in this exalted
role until the end of all things.
WHAT DROVE HIM TO DRINK.'
: She Was Happy ami Yet There Wna
an Awful Possibility Op
pressing' Her.
“Darling,” he said, as he placed his
i arm around her waist and drew her ten
derly to his breast, relates the New York I
Times, “why those pearly tears? Is the j
home that I have brought you to less
j magnificent than you expected?”
“Oh, 11-no,” she sobbed. "It is g-grand
er than I dared to h-hope.”
“Have you found since our marriage
that I am less exalted than you had sup
posed me to be?”
"Oh, F-Fred, you are a th-thousand
times*'more exalt-t-ted than I thougilt
jvu iu true.
Stooping down he kissed away two |
large tears that were trembling upon her
long, graceful lashes, and asked:
“Has it grieved you to be taken from !
your parents and the scenes of your !
childhood, little one.”
“No, no, dear-dearest,” she replied. ;
"I would g-gladly go anywhere w-with |
you.”
“Great heavens!” he cried, in wild
alarm. “Perhaps you are ill. Tell me, j
is It so, sweetheart?”
“No,” she said, through a fresh burs,t l
of tears, “it is not that.”
A look of dee;) perplexity overspread j
his handsome visage, and, pushing her
J hack so that he could look down into I
her big, beautiful, tear-dimmed eyes, he
asked:
“Then, wrhat in the dickens is th®
trouble?”
“1 was j-just think-thinking,” she re- :
| turned, “how miserable I should be if '
you were to die and I w-were to marry !
! s-some oue who wouldn't appreciate all !
this magnificence.”
Mock Terrapin in Chafing High.
Take the dark meat of a chicken
cooked the day previous and half a
pound of calf’s liver; put together in
the chafing-dish, add two cloves of
garlic, one small onion sliced, two
stalks of celery; cover with boiling
water and cook 20 minutes. Take !
out and cut into dice. Cleanse the
cbaflnfe-dish and put in a quarter of a
pound of butter; while the butter is j
melting, take the yolks of two hard
boiled eggs, mash to a smooth paste, r
adding gradually a cup of cream. Add
a tablespoon of flour to the butter, mix
and add the cream and eggs, stir con* |
stantly until it reaches the boiling
point, then add meat, a teaspoon of
salt, a dash of cayenne and just a sus- !
picion of mace. Serve hot on rounds
of buttered toast.—Ladies’ Home Jour
nal. \
