NEW NECK FURs.

Wide seasfs--called "necklets" in
London, I believe ARE very fashion
able this. winter, and will be worn
through tie spring md summer. a
warm scarf is quite necessity ut the
seashore, or at the mountainside, and
can be appreciated even in towns on
chilly evenings. These new scarfs are
hat-not round. like the old-ttme boas
and are frequently OF one fur about
the neck, with tails OF some other fur
forming the scarf ends. For example,
o neck band of seal is finished with
scarf ends OF sable, either with tails at
the end or o cascade OF tails from
throat to belt. Another favorite neck
fur, new this season, is the Elizabethan
ruff. This aleo is fashioned from two
furs-the pleated neckbaud, being OF
broadtail (baby lamb), while ermine
is twisted through the centre OF the
ruff, to hold the pleats in place, and
forms short scarf ends in front.
Lace iabots are feature OF seal and
Persian jackets, the creamy lace being
pleasantly decorative on the dark fur; |;
but it must be exceedingly good lace.
A cheap lace, against such back
ground, would be Intolerable. A rare

relic in your treasure casket, viii be

Princess Tom has enough kyaks and
blankets for an Alaskan kings ransom,
il there were such person. Some OF
the Alaskan blankets are very beauti-
full, and Princess Tom owns only the
choicest, which she keeps in piles in
her treasure room.
The Yahutat Indians OF Alaska are
the most expert basket makers OF the
North. They weave them of grasses
and tender willow WOO split into long
silky strips. Their decorative methods,
when they forsake totems, ale very
similar to those of the Yaqui and other
Southern Indians. Some of their bas.
kets are so closely woven that they
will hold water. Princess Tom, being
Yakutat, has passion for baskets.
and is the owner of some of the finest
specimens it has been my fortune to
see. The mark OF the totem is over
all OF Princess Toms treasures,
whether blankets, baskets, furs, chests
or ships that go down to the sea.
Princess Tom was young woman
when she began to trade. The trading
instinct was as rong in her as ever it
was in Jay Gould or in Rnssell Sage.
She began by peddling the furs taken
by her husband, and finding that she
was skilled in trade she also made deals
for the husbands of her friends and
neighbors. Then she saw a good
chance to make good trades for her
self, and bought lurs from other In
dians and took them to the trading
posts. Meanwhile, she became col.
1ector of blankets, copper kettles and
that sort OF thing. In the course of
few years she amassed vast amount
OF Indian wealth, but learned that
white mans wealth was better. Sol
ss s soon 90. as @ possible, 81 goi oiu was better
than silver, and she traded her silver
for gold, of which she now owns about
$4,000 worth in 500 pieces. Besides
these she has lnnumerable baEgles,
bracelets, necklaces and other orna-
ments made from the shining yellow
coin of the United States. Some OF
her bracelets have as many as fifteen
$40 gold pieces IN them, and when
Princess Tom decks herself out in her
golden coin jewelry she is person OF
weight. Her golden treasure is hid
den away in a variety of places, and
as she never spends any of it, it is
getting to be a burden, especially rs
she cannot look OF it very often for
fear of attracting covetous eyes to It's
resting places.

Oriental turbans are strange accom-

THE pRoppR WAY TO FRY FOOD.


Have . wire frying basket that will
at nicely in fat-bottomed iron kettle
writes Mary B. Keech. Fill the kittle-
tbree.fourths full OF lard aud set on
back of the stove 80 that it may be.
come gradually heated. II you must
set the kettle directly over the eOsls
so it will heat quickly, watch it closes
" or it may boil over and take IRE.
When the fat smokes in the center or
if piece OF bread dropped into it will
instantly burn, it is just the right
temperature to scar the outside OF the
food, thus preventing the grease IRON
penetrating, and rendering the food
light and digestible.
First, dip the frying basket in the
hot fat, before putting the articles to
he fried into it. In frying chops,
doughnuts. potato chips and all food
that requires long cooking, after
few minutes, draw the kettle back on
the stove, where it will not boil SO
rapidly. Doughnuts, croquettes, etc.,
should not touch each other. The
fat should be kept smoking hot, and
enough to completely cover the arti-
Giles cooked in it.
Croquettes should be rolled in egg
and fine bread or cracker crumbs.
Leave them in the fat just long enough
to make them o very pale brown. AS
they are made of articles that have
already been cooked, 1t is only neoes-
sary to heat them through nicely.
Tho fat should be clarified after
each using. While it is hot, drop in
q thick slice Of raw potato and leave
until cooked. If there are any sedi-
ments in the bottom of the fat it
should be strained. When cold, SET
away in the frying kettle.
