"Exer since the first pies were-' made, Madam.e" said the chef. ”it seems meringue pies have been cosidered the most glamor- ous. Why is this?"

I ”Because many homemaker: lfind a meringue difficult to make. 'Chef," I replied. ”And anything that's difficult to make or to at- tain zooms into the glamorous class. But sometimes they fall; sometimes they wecp."

"You mean the ladies, Mad- ame?" asked the Chef.

”Oh. no! The meringues." BEADS OF MOISTURE

"Sometimes they devlop little beads of moisture after baking. Or perhaps the meringue shrinks because it was not spread way out to the edge of the pie so that it is anchored in place."

"But all this is so uoni-esssary.I Madame. The ladies can learn to make meringue like an expert pastry chef."

”The only special equipment needed is an electric mixer." THE CHEF-"S "NEVER FAIL"

LOSING SELF-RESPECT

My husband is rude to me when we are out amongst our friends or when anyone is here. He says I imagine it; and I wondered if I were too offended: but lately I notice our friends saying things to cover up. However, a recent dance really brought things to a climax. As we entered. John didn't even walk he- side me, but about 15 paces ahead, During supper. we sat together, but he kept his back half turned to me and he was missing from my Bldg much of the evening. In fact it became quite a joke in our crowd. I seem to irritate him when we are out. and I feel I am losing my self-respect. Is there any solution for this? I really feel quite sick over it all- aod as if I will have to refuse any more invitations. Thank you very much for any help you can offer. L.P. SEEMS DISHONEST Dear L.P.: You do have a serious problem, of course. And in view of your husband's behavior as de- scribed, one wonders why he says you imagine it.
