In speaking of the lunch basket. it will
be of interest to mothers who realize that
cold lunches at best are not good for grow
ing boys and girls to know that the cafe
terra opened in the Milwaukee CWis) High
School is proving great success. This
cafeteria is in the basement of the build
ing, and is in charge of a graduate of a
cooking school, The tables accommodate
lis students at time. The menu, which
is varied each day, includes five 5-cent
dishes, such as pea soup, ham sandwiches,
creamed potatoes. sponge cake and milk
and fruit salad and one l0-cent dish, such
as lamb pot-pie or creamed chicken on
toast. Ten-cent dishes are half price when
sold with two or more of the Scent dishes.
The entire equipment of the cafeteria cost
about $500, and was paid for out of school
fund accumulated through public entertain
mentS.
While the tender. spreading toothed leaves
of the dandelion are pushing up from the
root stock, inviting the salad lover to pluck
and eat. 1t is not generally known that
many other weeds abhorred by the farmer
are equally valuable for greens or salad.
Most people think milk weed is poisonous,
but botanists and other people who know
what is good declare that the young leaves
when they are in Just the right condition
are a cross between spinach and aspara-
gus, and are delicious in a salad. Wild
mustard, another plague to our friend the
farmer, furnishes a delightful favor as a
pot herb while pokeweed in France is cul-
tivated for the same purpose. The broad
leaved variety of the dock and the curly
Leaf are used as vegetables all over Eu-
rope, while nettles, young and tender, are
held in high esteem for greens.

vored as several sets of these make it
possible to give the gown change of ap-
pearance
The usefulness of a light cloth coat for
early spring wear has led many of the
leading designers to try for especially fine
effects for this season, possibly on account
of the general use of strappings, stitchings
and appliques of cloth The bolero and the
which are much used. An especially pretty
jacket of the fanciful sort was noticed at
Redfern's- 1t was of black cloth, with APP
pliques of white panne braided with black
silk The high collar, the revers, the cuffs,
the edge of the jacket and straps over the
shoulders were fancifully cut pieces of the
panne, bordered with a double line of mar
row braiding. The jacket was cut with a
deep pointed front. White cloth might be
substituted for the white panne facings.
Velvet and AppIiques.

1t was strapped with satin and boosted
voluminous jabot of white lace, depending
from a collar of black jetted lace whose
meshes discovered underneath it a facing

The use Of appliques is sometimes rather
startling. as. for instance, on the gown
worn a. the Vaudevil!es by Nine Rejane in
Ma Cousine.' The principal part of the
gown is of black brocaded velvet. This
would be very satisfactory were not the
front and the back of the trailing skirt cut
off with two broad, ornamental pieces of
pink satin, which are not, to me at least
in any way pleasing. The bodice Of this
gown is by far the prettiest part of 1t, the
decolletage being a deep one with vertical
stripes of black velvet arranged over pink
satin. with a band of plain black velvet
ercirciing the neck. The piece of satin set
into the front of the dress holds basket of
flowers painted in brilliant colors upon its
surface.

A PRIMROSE COSTUME


PARIS, March 3. 1900.
Khaki promises TO be one of the fashion
able colors Of spring in Paris as we'll as
London. notwithstanding the scorn which
most Parisians claim to feel for the taste
of the despised Briton. Khaki gowns of
wool and silk material are shown on the
models in the shops. and the probability
is that these Will be much used for morn
ing and afternoon walking wear. Many up
to-date cyclists. golfers and wearers of tai
tornado costumes have already ordered
gowns of this serviceable material
On the whole, fashion seems to have pref
ty well decided in favor of khaki brown as
the color for spring wear. Chestnut brown
is also TO be a popular shade. Like so
many of the cloth gowns of the spring,
tatlOr-made garments are more often than
not trimmed with appliques of velvet and
supplied with background of white satin,
over which the applique is arranged.
