"A fruit omelet is a dainty luncheon
dish. To make it beat four eggs and
add to them two tablespoonfuls of
cream and three dessertspoonfuls of
flour. Mix all the ingredients well to-
gether, pour into an omelet pan and
fry on one side. Then cover the I'M
Drowned side with any small preserved
fruits and turn one side of the omelet
over the fruit. Place on a dish and
serve covered with sifted sugar.
IF made properly, nothing is more de-
licious than baked apple omelet- Eight
or nine large apples are ordinarily re-
quired to make it. These should be
peeled. cored, quartered, boiled to a
pulp and stirred with two ounces Of
butter and little powdered sugar.
When cold, well beaten egg should be
added to the mixture. The sides and

"A rather different omelet may be
made of chicken livers. These should
be washed in cold water and boiled I'M

that they should be cut up and placed
in frying pan and cooked in half an

The Lenten class of tailor made beau

should be made in a small. seamless

granite ware. The pan should be kept
especially for omelets, for if other
things are cooked in it the probability
is that it must be washed and scraped
heavily, and this makes it rough. so
that the omelet is likely to stick to the
surface. The omelet pan should not be
washed as most cooking utensils are.
The pieces of egg adhering to the bot

pieces of soft paper until it's surface is

very fragile looking roses. As all these
gowns were made for the production by
the great artists in dress, there is no
doubt that they mirror the present
tendency of fashion, the extreme use of
plaits suggesting that we may have the
plated skirt with US longer than we
thought.
On one of the stage gowns I noticed
novel sleeves. They were fitted over
the arm with comparative snugness and
were trimmed on the faring cuff over
the arm with narrow black silk bands.
A fiaring piece at the shoulder, also
trimmed with rows of the narrow black
silk braid, opened over an accordion
plated arrangement of silk that formed
very rudimentary puff. Under the

A clever housewife has devised q
kitchen table which is most service
able, especially in a small ROOM She
had a carpenter make a second top
for the ordinary table and had it fitted
on to that with hinges at the back.
This top shuts down tightly over the
table and is used for the daily service,

it is raised, and a fresh pine surface,
never used for anything else. is ready.

SCRAMBLE For PIGEONS.
Big Crowd Attracted by Lace House
Show

Snow
Every boy in town and most Of their
parents stood in the street in front of
the Lace House for three-quarters of
an hour last night waiting for the big
ball to open and the doves to fly. Each
kid had a handful of salt in response to
the advertisement that everybody who
caught a bird would get a prize. and
howled with delight and impotence
until the appointed hour arrived, when
the programme was carried out accu-
rately.
Seldom has anything of the kind at
tracted such a tremendous crowd. From
the Walker House to the Kenyon both
sides of the street were damned until
traffic by pedestrians was impossible
and the street cars worked through only
with the utmost difficulty. A huge
ball about six feet in diameter hung
from a rafter pointing out over the
inside was the main object of the
youngsters present
It opened finally and following d
shower Of carnations and other beauti-
full flowers came a dozen pigeons. The
birds had envelopes tied to their feet
and could not fly but tumbled down
into the hands of the taIlest s)eOple in
the bunch. Inside of each envelope
was an order on the Lace House for
some article of wear and the scramble
for the feathered creatures almost ap-
preached a riot. Those who didn't get
a bird tried for the flowers and secured
them in rather a dilapidated condition.
The doors of the store were thrown
open to the crowd and the big opening
was pronounced one of the handSomeSt

coaches for colored passengers was
made the subject of an opinion in the
United States supreme court today, the
case being that of the Chesapeake &

from the Kentucky court of appeals.
The opinion was handed down by JUS
tice Brown, and the Kentucky courts
judgment in favor the state was at
firmed.
Justice Brown stated that in this case
the railroad company had attacked the
statute on the ground that it was I'M
constitutional, in that it was an inter-
ference with the interstate commerce
law.
justice Harlan dissenting, stated his
opinion is that the state is in interfer-
ence with the interstate commerce law
and that the Kentucky legislature has
no right TO classify citizens in color in
