Some experienced house wives cling to the silver fork still, some like the flat wire beater, many of us favor the Dover egg beater, and still others prefer some special patent beater. In this day and age, when eggs are so very precious and time and energy are valuable also, it is worth while to know the dif ferent results obtainable. I have some unpublished work on the beat ing of eggs which brings out these differences. Principle of Beating Eggs. When egg vhite is beaten, the al bumen expands and air is caught within the cells. The more air that is incorporated, the larger is the bullf of the beaten egg. Usually this imprisoned air is desired to leaven or lighten the mixture to which it is added. For example, in sponge cake, the entire leavening depends upon the air in the beaten egg whites. Thus iri general the larger the bulk of the beaten egg the more successful we are. Comparison of Beaters. The old-fashioned fork has much in its favor as far as bulk of egg goes, but it takes far more time and energy than the wire beater and does not give quite such good results. A fork is heavy in relation to its size and therefore tires a per son using it. The flat wire beater really excels any other type unless one must take time into special consideration. Then a Dover ex cels slightly. Personally I find a flat beaterjtist as easy to handle vv;ih.lm a d Miss P.aum as her guests at the University club today and Saturday Miss Alice -oaa win be hostess at a small luncheon party. 1 Omaha Teacher Weds. An out-of-town wedding of inter est to Omahans was that of Miss Grace Miner and Mr. Harry M. Hammand, which took place in Yankton, S. D., Tuesday. Mr. and Mrs. Hammond will make their home in Yankton. The bride was formerly a teacher in the Omaha schools and a very active member of the Oinaha Story Tellers' league. Engagement Announcement. Mr. and Mrs. L. E. Fundis of Chicago have announced the en gagement of their daughter, Myrtle, to Mr. J. Harry Welsh, of Omaha. Informal Affairs. The threesomes and foursomes at luncheon are quite the vogue these busy days. Miss Katherine Baum having been honor guest at 'numer ous affairs of 'this kind. Many of her girl friends have planned these' small affairs in her. honor. Miss Helen Eastman had Miss Esther Velvet is Women's Best - Background , PERSONALS Mr. C. G. Triem is suffering from an attack of the grip. Miss Bess Wilson is in receipt of a cablegram from her brother. Wil liam Wilson, , announcing his safe arrival at Eastleigh, England. Mr. Wilson is machinist's mate in the navy. Mr. Jack Beaton, who has been seriouslv ill with Spanish influenza, is much improved. Mr. and Mrs. Charles D. Beaton have as their guest Mrs. Beaton's mother Mrs. E. A. Wurster of Mil waukee. Mrs. Guy L. Harrison and Mrs. Ella Metcalf Barton of Grand Is land, who have been visiting Mr. and Mrs. O. S.

Community Kitchens One million portions of food are sold each day in the 623 national kitchens and restaurants which have been established in London and the country. All these institutions are of recent developernent, the com munal kitchen being unknown be fore the war, and British house wives are greatly appreciative of the saving of labor and economy of fuel which results when meals are purchased at the state kitchens. The coming winter, it is surmised, will see a large increase in their Happy (.others Prepare in Advance A Wonderful Influence For Expccteai Mothers. . Mother! for over halt century have used with the utmost reirularity the time honored preparation,' Mother's Friend, be fore the arrival of baby. Here is a truly wonderful penetrating application for the abdomen and breasts. It softens and makes elastic the muscles, rendering them pliant to readily yield to nature's demand for expansion. By its use the anxious months of pregnancy are made comfortable. The usual wrenching strain, bearing-down and stretching pains are counteracted. The sys tem is prepared for the coming event, and the use of Mother's Friend brings restful nightB and happy anticipation, for the nerves are not drawn upon with the usual strain. By its regular application the muscles expand easily when baby arrives; the time is less at the crisis and naturally the pain and danger is less. Mother's Friend fs on sale at every drug store.

By GERTRUDE BERESFORD. Surely thjere is no fabric in the world like black velvet for bringing out the light in a woman's eyes and hair and for softening every line of the face. Youngsters-look well in velvet with deep white collars and cuffs, such as Van Dyke loved to paint. Youth seems to radiate against its folds, and old age is brought into exquisite softness by its lovely lines. This gown of black velvet will suffice for so many war time functions. The vest of .white georgette crepe is in sharp relief against three bands of sealskin The deep, tight cuffs of white georgette are also banded with the soft fur. For the rest there is'just the swish of lovely line, and the fabric drapes itself to perfection. This black vel vet hat deserves the name of "Pic ture" and looks worthy of this gown. - . .

Every once in a while I find a person who is very well satisfied with a special egg beater she has discovered, but I have never found such specials nearly as good as the two common types. The Use of Salt The pinch of salt that we were al ways taught to use really is an aid in beating egg whites. It helps to harden the albumen and makes the egg stiffer. More than a generous pinch of salt makes the texture of the egg finer and the amount small er. Too large a pinch will of course give a salty flavor. In the last few years, when eggs have ben so high, there have ap peared several so-called egg substi tutes under various commercial names. They are egg substitute ia one respect only; namely, in leaven ing power. They are merely a glorified form of baking powder. From my limited observation I would say that they seem to im prove the texture of cakes, muffins, etc., and if one wishes to buy them for that purpose I think there is no reason for not doing so. But the housewife should remember she is not buying real egg substitute, for eggs are a very valuable food, while the egg savers have no food value at all, as far as their labels would indicate.
