JUST FOR LUCK Just ’cause spring has turned the corner and every girl’s a bride at heart... here are seven simple ways to make a man like you, given me by quite the wisest wom an 1 know. Make a fuss over him —let him know you like him. Ask his opinion about everything. Build him up in company. Suggest that he go out with the boys now and then—men like to feel free. Sym pathize with his troubles. Let him know you think he's good at his job. Last, but not least, make him comfortable- an easy chair, a good light, a place for his pipe.

PKOPEXty PA.V.A6S IN THE VERYONE asks at least once in his life, "I wonder how much ^ paper is used in this country”—either how much every year, or every day, or perhaps since American business really found its stride during the last half of the last century. Any Buch question tias as much chance of being answered correct ly as childhood's old query, ‘‘How much wood would a woodchuck chuck” because the uses of paper are innumerable and the com panies that make it and use it are many. However, the country’s largest manufacturer of bond paper for business use has just released some figures that help one to real ize the magnitude of the paper in dustry in this country. This one company has made, in the last quarter of a century, 788,800,192 pounds of its top grade paper for business use. That is a hard figure to visualize, being in astronomical figures, so let’s translate it into some understand able terms. Suppose you were to print bill heads on this amount of paper— business firms all over the country do. If each bill were made out for the modest sum of one dollar and fifty cents, the total sum of money involved would be about four times as much as all the property losses in the World War—four times as much as all the houses and towns destroyed, all the ships sunk, all the cargoes lost at the bottom of the sea. If you started to run this paper W 'hrough * typewriter In one regu s> lar width strip, it would run on and on for fifteen millions of miles —enough to go around the sun five and a half times! if two firms in the Empire State Building in New York and in the Merchandise Mart in Chicago decided to merge, and stretch a cross-country row of desks with stenographers between their two buildings, these million girls could type for eight hours a day at their regular speed for more than three years before they used up all the paper. lif this twenty-five-year produc tion were made up into business writing paper and envelopes and parcelled out to the people of the world, every living soul on earth could write and send twenty let ters. In writing paper and en velopes, this twenty-five-year mass of Hammermill Bond equals more ordinary mail than would go, on the average, through the New York City post office in fifteen years. Or look at it this way: It a wide-awake business executive, who dictated a letter on a separata sheet every five minutes for eight hours a day, tried to use up this amount of paper, he would still be dictating (probably with a sore throat) at the end of two and a half million years! f Everyday Cooking Miracles BY VIRGINIA FRANCIS Director Hotpolnt Electric Cookery Institute Speaking of strawberries, a fa mous man once remarked, “Doubt less God could have made a better berry, but doubtless God never did.” Well, that’s just the way we feel about asparagus. And if someone had invited us to attend the Coronation we would have hesitated to accept simply because we wouldn’t have wanted to miss eating our fill of succuiently-ten der asparagus—so especially good this time of yearl And from the cup of water, and about 20 min utes to produce colorful, uprigh servings of crispy-tender asparagus And this particular recipe has othe tricks to divulge which are your for the reading: Asparagus Tips in Lemon Rings 1 large bunch fresh asparagus Yz cup water Salt 2 lemons Cut off the tough end of aspara gus stalks and reserve for soups Try this new way of serving electrically-cooked asparagus and you will delight your guests with its goodness. menu-planning homemaker’s point j of view the bunches of stalwart, | green-tipped stalks in the grocer’s i window are a welcome sight. For j asparagus affords so many ways of' adding variety to the menu. Requires Careful Cooking Delicious as asparagus assured ly is, it, after all, is a delicately-fla vored vegetable that requires care ful cooking to preserve its good ness. And right here is where the new hi-speed Calrod unit of the Hoipoint electric range comes to the rescue, for it preserves the deli cate, garden flavor of fresh vege- j tables, conserves food values and j quickens the task. Further, the controlled Calrod has recently been improved r.r.d flattened, so that pans fit as snugly as a pancake to a g iddle ar.d less heat escapes into the kitchen. With summer coming on apace, this is a real boon to the homemaker who has often had to si.rc’e and bed along with the food she cooked. To cook a bunch of crispy, green asparagus, the saucepan placed on the surface unit cf the electric range requires on’y J4 Remove scales from end of aspar agus: then, with string, tie in uni form bundles for individual serv ings. Place bundles in upright portion in deep saucepan. Add v: ■ or and salt, and cover. Place sau, epan on • Calrod surface unit, Turn to High heat to steam (5 minutes), then turn to Low foi about IS minutes. Remove asparagus to hot platter and slip each individual serving oi asparagus into a lemon ring from which pulp has been removed. Serve with a fluffy Hollandaise sauce. C ther ways and means of sending asparagus to the table are: French fried asparagus tips, asparagus au gratin, and asparagus a la king. Don’t forget how delicious left over asparagus can be when util ized in a salad with a tart French dressing and crisp lettuce. And last of all—did you ever serve creamed asparagus, mushrooms, and hard-cooked eggs on toast? This is the perfect luncheon dish; one that will cause your guests—be they ever so polite—to exclaim “oh” and “ah” to every mouthful. r-'" 1 — ■ - -a New Treatment Brightens living Room, Adds Comfort _' ■ -v - - -w - •• . «. j ! A_fcw simple changes in the lighting transformed this living room from a dingy cubby-hole to the cheerful g&Mi, . ■ effect y°u see here By Jean Prentice i’J.’HE problem of making a small living room more roomy and livable has perplexed many a home maker, particularly those just en tering. the business oi housekeeping on a limited budget. Yet it can easily be done, and I’m glad to tell you about one case that recently came to my attention. The room was a veritable cubby-hole at the outset, but a change of lighting i fixtures and re-arrangement of iurni- i ture transformed its entire appear- I ancc. It was obvious at the outset tbrt the lighting then being used just 5 wasa t enough to reveal the ro-'inVj interest or to inahe it livable at : right. The selection of the lax,, 1 shown in the pict v -- - - ij by the need for 1 me 1 I desk and davenport and the general space limitations involved. There seemed no other good solution for the desk, decoratively, than the in conspicuous small shelf with a lumi line bracket attached underneath One more wall lamp would have been too many! Due to an 11-foct ceiling, fairly dark-toned tan paper, and a decora tive restriction to small lamps, this room required additional room light ing. bins was obtained simply by re moving the amber, flame-shaped bulbs from the old three-socket cluster ceiling fixture, and replacing them with the new 60-wa.tt s'lvered bov! variety. The fixture was fwTmr modernized by attaebmg 7-rwh in verier! cones to t*1 c nrv.- ; (Not sac • i’oo A re' l mi ;-C -lit i } . The lighti p unus at either end I of the divan :.sc 100-watt bulbs, and ! are of the pin-it-up type that simply hooks onto a push-pin inserted in the wall. Under the shade is a trans lucent plastic bowl which provides light in both upward and downward directions. These take up no floor space, and do an efficient lighting job. A bookcase, with a small radio and potted plants atop it, occupies the space at the left of the divan 'hat a floor lamp would ordinarily fill. The bridge lamp behind the" easy chair at right has a brown 12-inch white-lined shade equipped with a 100-watt bulb. The transformation involved no lighting or decoration compromises, and was made at negligible c°st. And the eyes that live here have a constant treat in the genero ~d soft lighting they have to se, ,13 well as in the highlighted e>: is on color and decorative deta.i u.ey have to look at!
