I SALMON WEEK GLORIFIES EVER YD A Y FOODS! j Canned salmon has been an un obtrusive staple for years—con tent to do its excellent service for family dinners quietly whenever called from its place on the pan ; try shelf. But now, this familiar sea-food emerges as a real celeb rity in its owr. right. It even has a “Week" all it* own—for Febru ary 28 to Marci. 7 this year, is , Salmon Week, and many a cook and budding chef will be turning to some interesting new salmon 1 dishea to enliven everyday menus, 1 and increase their own reputations. The official Salmon Week dish —far from being a haughty and 1 expensive affair — is one of the simplest and least expensive of all main dishes. It is particularly de lightful for service during the Lenten season, when most meal planners are including fish main dishes in several menus each week. The Salmon Week dish is a cas- 1 serole which should come to the table piping hot. Delicious enough to appeal to the most particular family appetites, it is planned to please the strictest family budget. Although Salmon Week serves to introduce the salmon-macaroni i casserole to American tables, it is fully capable of Bpeaking for it self and of playing many a re peat engagement during the montha to come.

Duke Ellington and His Band ADVICE j By Miss Trubbl Watters ; Miss Watters, a member of the Niles Domestic Bureau has kind ly consented to assist in the ad justment of the love and domestic problems for readers of this: pa per. Answers given through this column ai« free. For pi i -ate and detailed answers, send addressed stamfied envelop and 20c, Ans wers in this column are liurte 1 to readers of this paper. Address Miss Trubbl Waders, lira: 15, Om aha Guide, 2418 Grant Street, Omaha, Nebraska. Dost Miss Watters: I am a young married man and until recently I and my wife iiavo been very happy. Lately m.y moth*r-inriaw*3 bus band died and she has moved in with us. She has made life very disagreeable for us since she has been here. It. is hand for me to put her out a:; she ha i no where to go and yet I feel that if she stays she will wreck both of our lives- What wvrnld you suggest?— Tom Anawer—You should be just »s considerate of your wife's mother as you would be of your own. Al though it is often concluded that in-laws are problems when it be comes necessary to live with them, yet it wouid not be very human to throw them out when there is no place for them to go. You pwrhspe will find yourself in a similar po sition some day. Try again to win tlui friendship and confidence of your in-law and if you do you will find hor a help instead of a hi - derance Yet, n mother-in-law who in vades the sanctity of a young couple’s home should refrain from undue interference into the family affairs. Women who has been active, and still ha o many youthful years ahead, must be occupied with some thing to keep them busy. As a means toward this end, why not endeavor to get her interested in some form of club and social activity. Then, she will'not have so much time to bother about the manner in which your house hold is run. Detr Miss Watters: — A few years ago I went with a fellow whom I loved very much and I thought at the time that he was also very much in love with me. He jilted me and for two ye rs I knew nothing of his w-hereabouts. Recently J met him at a party, he was there and so was I. New Miss Watters, this boy has begged me since having seen me again to start going with him again as he says he still loves me and can ex pluin why he never wrote me and left as he did- He seems changed and different and says he has nev er loved anyone but me and never will. Shall I trust him again?— A. J. Answer—His actions have been questionable to say the leat. Don’t take him too seriously on the strength of what he says. Although there is apparently no harm in go ing to parties with him if you are both in the habit of going to them alone Dear Miss Watters:....I met a boy recently, who I like very much, ho says he likes me, and tells nn he is sincere but I am afraid his expresion completely gives hi;,:. r Should I bt lieve what he tells mo or should J forgot him? I have had so many disappoint ments until 1 am almost afraid to believe or trust anyone any more-, it seems- What shall I do?—I? M C Answer—Of course you cannot .«• Yo:vt to believe everything c.'iy body te Us you- fcu- h a trusting : utjp. would n.'t take long to cre pto a series of disillusions- I,eain Hony-thin*’ about the character and habits of the boys whom you asso ciate with before taking any of thorn too seriously. Dear Mins Watters—I am writ ing you for some advice. My prob lem Li this: I am very much in love with a boy, but he is insanely jealous of me. He even gets angry if I talk to another boy. As I have said Irfifore, l am very m|uch in love with him and he is with me, ami is continually begging me to mar ry him- What shall I do? Shall I marry this fellow, knowing he is jealous or shall I try to give him up? It will be very hard as I love him so mnich- —Doubtful Answer -My dear young lady: My advice tc you is to forget about this boy entirely- A jealous person makes life vpry miserable, not only for you, but for himself, and for others- Jf this boy is in sanely jealous, a you say, it is bet ter you know it now and avoid trouble, than to marry him and make your home life for you and your family miserable- You may be very much in love with him row, but time heals all things and it would be far better to lot time heal a broken heert than to have pm unpleasant situation existing during the rest of your life.
