Sometimes the unpopulsrity of pertain fruits‘ and vegetables pan be traced to careless handling {m their preparation This is especi- lly irue with grapefruit. There s a bitter oil found in the rind and pith of this citrus fruit that changes the flavor of the pulp if allowed to come in contact with it. ~_ The oil in the skin is quite ap- parent and therefore easily guarded ‘against. but few home-makers eallze that the thin membrane vhich sunourlm‘ the pulp secrete hi5 same bitter substance which is ‘eluased whenever the membranes ire cut. Consequently. two steps usually v aken ln-preparing halved grape- ruit are better left undone-rc- ioviny the core and cutting the 111p from the rind. Both these teps harm the flavor of the fruit ly freeing the bitterness in the pith ind allowing it to permeate the pulp. A strum. shamp-odsed tea- spoon may be used to loosen the fruit enough so that it" may be uooped out easily when served. The amount of sugar used over nlapefruit is. of course,- a matter of personal taste. but some very pars ucular persons use a. dash cf salt find no sugar at all. “litany diet .,pecialists deplore the use of sugar u; grapefruit on the grounds that the silgar counteracts the good oh he organic acids of the fruit.

INTERPRETING WORDS

There are several impressions that can be conveyed by these phrases depending upon the inflec- tion of the voice.

If the salewoman says the words in a. tone of weary indifference, Mrs. Jones thinks. "Oh she isn't in- terested. . . it isn't worth while to wait.

Or the inflection may be sarcastic if the saelswoman has been sorely tried. But Mrs. Jones forgets her own shortcomings and. feels that the salesperson believes her to be a fool who ought to have liked the models. and shows bod taste by not doing so. Not only does the cus- tomer not wait, but she probably will never come in the store again.

But suppose. in spite of weari- neas the words are spoken with genuine personal concern, they im- mediately convey . to Mrs. Jones that the speaker is flatteringly anxous to sec her in the new model, that she feels sure it will look well. Mrs. Jones is warmed, soothed, put , in a. buying mood.

Too Many Beans

By ALMA SIOUX SCARBERRY

CHAPTER.’ 10 Sugar joined Jim Carter reluc-

tantly. . ' "This is a tumble hour to be got- ting in, much less sitting around azing at the moon. What will Mrs. Le Masters think of mo?"

Jim Carter moved over on the bench and motioned for her to sit beside him.

“Don't let that worry you. It's the shank of the evening."

"Not where I came from. It's poli- tively indecent."

Cart laughed and lit his pipe. "Tell mo," he sat back and- feasted his eyes on the lovely girl in the moonlight, "how did you happen to be placed 1n the orphanage, Sugar? Did your parents die when you were small?"

Sugar shook her head.

“I don't-know. some one left mo , thvz-c in a basket."

i "You've no idea who your parents l were?" , "Not the slightest. There won't a thing about me to lead to identific- l aiion" "Tough," Cart said shortly. "But

‘cu can be sure of one thing." '

“What

"Your parents weren't. ordinary people. Anyone could see that."

Sugars heart warmed.

“It's kind of you to say that. But all I've learned I owe to Mother Frlddle. She's e. saint. More like a mother to me. She oven gave me her name. Otherwise I wouldn't. have any. Everybody loves Mother."

"That must have made it lots easier," cart pulled at his pipe. "I thought all orphanages were like the ones I've read about in books."

“Most of them are, I don't think any of the kids are unhappy with Mother. She makes them all feel welcome."

They fell into silence. It was on Just such a. night that she had sat in the moonlight with Johnny, and Sugars thoughts turned to that hour she could never forget She remembered Johnny's kiss and her promise to marry him, and her heart grew heavy with longing. It seemed so long since she had seen Mother and Johnny and Felicity and all the-others.

So much had- happened in o few

short days. It didn't seem possible that she had met Scoop that after- noon and they had become such good friends. She remembered her experience with him 1n the car with ‘a shudder. Determined to put it out of her mind, she tried to think 01 other things, of the Scoop she come to know as they talked about her life in the orphanage. Now she was sitting in the moun- llght with another man. college boy who had proved to be such a. good friend. Scoop was right. Truth was stranger than fiction.

"What are you thinking?" Cart interrupted and brought her back to earth.

"Just mooning." Sugar turned with a smile. “Thinking about all the things that have happened to me in one short week. New friends. All the new things I've done."

"Have you decided it's a pretty swell world?"

"Oh. YES." she nodded. “Taking it all in all, it's been a wonderful weeik."

Jim Garter leaned toward her, and She chug-ht the perfume from his tweeds. A healthy, masculine odor that she found very pleasant and

"It doesn't take much to make you happy, does it?"

“I've never thought of it. Lguess I've never really been unhappy, ox- ccpt when I started to think. And I usually kept too busy to let the blues get me down.

Cart felt her nearness and his heart began to pound uncomfort- ably. He moved a little closer. "You look like a. little angel, sit- ting in the moonlight in that. white dress." he told her huskily.

"Thank you. sir," she tried to be nonchalant. "It must be the moon that has blinded you Or, Zanic Lou's dressmaker."

“I—mean it." the boy said breath- lessiy. "I've-never had a girl aflect me like you do."

Sugar stiffened when Cort sud- denly reached cut and drew her into his arms.

“Don'ti" she tried to push away, but Cart held her fastand buried his lips in the softness of her mouth.

Something new stirred in Sugai-‘s blood. and he kissed her nglin ta the singing ‘ln her veins.

"Obi" she bobbed brcathlelsly. “You-mustnt."
