Copyright The Adams Newspaper Service (Copyright. The Adams Newspaper Servlse.) Marian Peddles Her Wares. THE cheerless, almost chairless of fice of the Cheering Hour Maga zine was tucked away at the end of a gloomy hallway In a dingy office build ing on Union Square. Gillsy was Its editor. His squeaking swivel chair and creaking, asthmetlc voice were music to Marian Winthrop's ears on the two occasions when she had made bold to visit his Banctum. One day she pulled herself out of Fifth avenue's. brisk current of pedes trians for a third invasion of the edi tor's office. In her handbag reposed a laboriously written manuscript'. She had originally resolved to make an effort to sell, her wares to the Cheer .TO i irriA ing Hour Magazine because It looked to her like one of the humblest and most approachable privates In the formid able army of New York publications. She dodged into the entrance of the building with bated breath, and the hesitating elevator hoisted her dubi ously to Glllsy's floor. She found him dragging wearily at the stub of a cigar. His big, heavily-shod feet were de posited like clumsy cacti at the edge of the desert of disordered manuscripts and galley proofs on his desk. He took the proffered manuscript and his trained eyes traveled rapidly hrough Its pages. When he had finished ne blinked, at her kindly and not without a look of pity, through the horn rimmed spectacles astride his enor mous red nose, and said: "There's something missing in your stuff. But you Just keep coming. A beginner has got to sweat blood. One of these days your work will begin get ting by, and then you'll have smoother sailing." Marian's hungry soul devoured the crumbs of comfort that were tossed her by this royal chef of literature's kitchen. "Just what seems to be lack ing in my work?" she asked, bracing herself for the shock she felt was coming. "It hasn't got the punch," replied GUlsy. "There a tired something it It lacks color and snap. You haven't put the real stuff into It that you shot into that newspaper yarn of your's you showed me. This, on tne other hand, is Just a little too arti ficial. You don't seem to know or feel your theme thoroughly enough. You try to write about Bohemia without apparently knowing Bohemia. (He re ferred to the point of view, not the land.) That's bad business. The plot's not so worse. But your background and people aren't real. The thing doesn't ring true." "I'm sorry," was all that Marian could respond. "Keep at it. Miss Winthrop," said the editor at parting. "Just now I'm afraid you'll find the markets pretty dull. However, business will get back to normal in time. Meantime, stick to the grind and one of these day's you'll win." Sadder, wiser and Infinitely discour aged, Marian started uptown. On the streets newsboys were rending the air with shrill and strident cries about the latest horror. Over on the square an I. W. W. orator was declaiming against the workmen of one country shooting up those of another. Pedes trians wore worried, tense faces. Glllsy's words were flapping their way like malevolent bats through Marian's brain. Hitherto it had not occurred to her that business condi tions would be likely to mean an untoward blow to her fortunes. Kh had not anticipated that a National depression would make It cruelly dif ficult for a new writer to maneuver her way into the market. She railed mentally at this blow of fate. Grim depression settled upon her. To be a Jobless divorcee, she realized now. was anyming DUt a scnool girls frolic. Tomorrow The Ingenue Again. y . . . ZAlks On 7)OMESrCSCfC r - - m S JJ rJlLiAl' QLc,. i r Cannlnsr Kresn Vegetable. SEAVIEW. Wash., June 2. Will you please give me in your column a recipe for canning peas, string beans and young beets? Thanking, you in advance. T. G. Vegetables require more care than do fruits in canning, partly because of the lack of acid which is more fa vorable to the growth of micro organ isms than is the acid fruit juice and partly because fruit bacteria are not ordinarily spore- formers. The spore of bacteria found generally in peas, beans, corn and asparagus are less easily killed than the baterla them selves. Hence it is necessary in canning veg etables (1) to cook them at a tempera ture higher than boiling water; (2) to cook them for a very long time; or to cook them by the ""intermittent" meth od. Thus a chance is given the spores to become "active" after the first cook ing and they may be killed more easily on the second or thir cooking. The first method Is not usually avail able in the home, though steam "pres sure" cookers. In which the tempera ture can be raised to 230 degrees or even 250 degrees, Farenhelt, may be purchased at prices varying from $10 to $30. The second method uses more fuel and tends to give less satisfactory tex ture and flavor. Three to eight hours' continuous steaming is necessary, ac cording to the age and kind of vege tables used and the size of jars. The third or intermittent steriliza tion method is generally best and most convenient for home use. In this the cans are steamed one hour on each of three successive days. The jars, lids, etc, must be examined carefully as to any small defect, for leak means loss. Only the youngest and freshest of vegetables should be put up. Green vegetables such as young peas or string beans are sometimes "blanched" before canning. That is, after being shelled or trimmed as for table use, the vegetables are washed and plunged into boiling salted water In which is a very minute amount, literally "a pinch ' of baking soda. They are boiled 5 to 10 minutes, ac cording to size, then either drained and packed into 'the jars while hot, or, as some prefer, dashed with cold water, the object being to retain the green color. Have the cans washed and heated in hot water in the usual way and fill loosely with the washed or "blanched" prepared young vegetables so that the heat may penetrate. Fill the Jar to overflowing with salted water, one teaspoonful (level) to the jar. Put on the covers (rinsed In boil ing water), place on a rack in a wash boiler or In a steamer and steam one hour. Remove, let -stand over night and steam one hour next day. Do not remove the lids. Steam one hour on the third day, then label and store in a cool, dry place. One teaspoonful of sugar may be used to each jar of young peas. ' The beans must be very young and tender and Brittle or they will not can well. If the second method Is used the peas will need to be steamed (after planching 10 minutes and counting from the beginning of boiling) not less than three hours, and preferably four hours. Young string beans will need about the same time. Young beets should be small and of even size. Boil in their unbroken skins In an ordinary kettle for 80 minutes; then remove the skins, place In steril ized Jars; fill up with cold, unsalted water, and steam at least one hour. Some makers use vinegar in the water. This makes keeping rather easier, but, of course, gives a kind of pickled beet, rather than a canned beet. The former Is not so useful for general purposes. Hanlcurlng. One girl writes me that in spite of the depth to which she has filed her nails, her fingers have a spread-out appearance at the tips. She will be surprised somewhat when I inform her that the filing of the nails to any depth other than where the flesh and nail naturally meet is what makes the finger tips spread. . Unless you observe a - tew . simple rules when manicuring your nails you will ruin them. To begin with, when the nails are perfectly dry, file them Into the de sired shape. Then soak the finger tips In warm soapy water. After a minute or two In the water, dry thor oughly. Now, with an orange stick push back the cuticle and smooth the nail. Never, never cut the cuticle. It will only grow back ragged, and if it has been cut let it grow back normally again, rubbing in cream or oil every night until the flesh has softened. If you gently push back the cuticle after each washing you won't need to have It cut, for only neglect causes the skin to tighten around the nails. After your nails are filed and the cuticle pushed back around the edges, cover the nails and finger tips with talcum powder, rub well with a pol isher, then wipe off all the super fluous powder. Then polish the nails again with a nail polish. Next wash your hands, being care ful not only to wash but to dry the underside of the nails. Never clean your nails with a sharp instrument that is apt to scrape them. This will leave a rough surface for dust and dirt to work. into. If your nails are stained, you can clean the spots off with alcohol, though knowing their texture and how easily Injured they are. I would not recommend any more vigorous scour ing fluid. The nails should be polished dally, though manicured only once a week. bittle Discussions OF boveApMarriaqe BY BARBARA BOYD. Good Intentions) and Oood Sense. T HEARD of a woman today," said JL the Engaged Girl, "who in a grand show of good feeling adopted a little girl, and this girl afterward wrecked the life or her benefactor's son, and caused him to commit suicide. It's strange, isn't it, how one can, with the best intentions, do a thing that will turn out disastrously?' "There's quite considerable difference between good intentions and good sense," observed the Clubwoman. "There ought to be a strong connection be tween them, for If anything needs the control of good sense It is good inten tions. But it seems to me a good many people think If their Intentions are good that is all that matters. The good of their motives is supposed to counter balance any lack of Judgment." "That was. the way it was in this case," agreed the Engaged Girl. "The woman seemed to think she was doing such a good thing In adopting the girl, that nothing further was required of her; that because she had performed the virtuous act of adoption, the girl must, therefore, . develop Into all that was fine. The woman did it. I believe, because her son's life had been saved in some remarkable way, and in a fine glow of feeling she decided to do some thing to show her gratitude. So she rushed in and adopted this girl, and then, thinking she had been wonder fully benevolent, she seemed to think nothing more was demanded of her." "It Is a case, as I said, of good in tentions without good sense. Adopting a child is without doubt a good thing to do. But before doing it one should study the home situation pretty thor oughly to see if such action Is advis able. And having done it. one should look after the child as carefully as If he were one's own, perhaps more so. ror the child s previous environment may make special oversight necessary. But this is by no means the only case where good intentions lack good sense. The very fact that a person means well by another seems in nine cases out of ten to prevent him from considering whether what he intends doing is really good for the other." "I've been up against that." agreed the Engaged Girl. "My fiance's sister is that sort. The other day she planned what she thought was a delightful motor trip for me. Yet it completely upset some important plans of my own. But she was in such a glow of good will at what she thought she was doing for me that I hated to disappoint her. And she bought us a dinner set that will just spoil our dining-room scheme. And I shall not feel now as If I ought to get the blue breakfast set I had quite set my heart upon." The Engaged Girl sighed. "It's too bad." sympathized the Club woman. "I know the kind. They sim ply ooze good intentions. In a fine frenzy of good-will they do all sorts of things you don't want them to. And the one thing you wish they would do exercise a little common sense they never seem to think of. Good inten tions alleviated by common sense are endurable, but good intentions allowed to run wild can do more damage than a cyclone." LfrfrederjcKn.ttQssizer. Campers) Be Careful. THE time Is near when thousands of people will be" seeking a change and rest at various resorts, and many will go into camps for a few weeks. It is well to bear in mind that often "the best of sanitary conditions do not always prevail in such places. In most Instances campers are not surrounded by the same sanitary protections that maintain in the cities. One is inclined to overlook this fact, and frequently people return from an outing to come down with typhoid fever or some intestinal trouble as soon as they arrive home. This Is surely a poor termination of a Summer outing. If campers are careful about their water supply, their milk, meat, butter, and protect themselves from files they may obtain all that they are seeking for in the Summer outing and have no regrets or doctors' fees and hospital bills to pay later.
