The blouse and boomers are made

are loose and drawn up below the
knee by means of elastics inserted in

viands That Are Appropriate For the
Summer Fare.

Berries and fruits should be used as
frequently as possible. both in the raw
state and in made desserts. Many de-
llciou.s dishes may be made from
Strawberries, and every housewife
should lay in a good supply of pre-
served and canned Strawberries for
future use. Strawberry shortcake may
be made in various ways.
One of the most delicious desserts
may be made as follows. and is espe-
clally tasty to use with cold supper:
Make three layers Of cup cake from the
recipe calling for one cup OF butter,
two cups Of sugar, three cups of flour
and five eggs, with one teaspoonful Of
baking powder. Bake in layers and
stand aside until cool. While the cake
is baking put to soak in two table
spoonfuls of water one even teaspoon
full of gelatine. Let this soak until
well dissolved. Beat the whites OF
four eggs until very light and stiff
and add the gelatine to them when
partly whipped. Sweeten to taste
and flavor with vanilla or a little cur
rant jelly. When the cakes are cold
put in n thick layer of the egg over
the top and place over 1t a number of
strawberries or blackberries. Place
the second layer of cake on top and
over it place another lot of berries, the
white OF egg to be thlckly spread over
the berries. Put the third layer of
cake over this and sprinkle well with
pulveriZed sugar.
The cakes for this dessert may be
made in the morning and the straw
berries and white of egg added just
before you are ready to use it. The
cake is always richer after 1t has had
time to soak little.
\ cake that is perfectly dry and al
most tasteless il eaten soon after it
is baked will be rich and delicious the
following morning II it has been kept
carefully from the air in tin box af-
ter it has become quite cold.
Small tarts are most delicious If
made from rich pastry and filled after
they are baked with strawberry pre-
serves. Raspberries are particularly
good when used in this way.
Roly-poly made from either pre-.
served raspberries, blGckberries or
peaches is delicious and viii many
c.mes fill in when otherwise the dinner
would be plain one.
One should always be prepared for
unexpected happenings. such as the
unlocked for arrival OF guests or some
stoppage in the household machinery.
Prepare a shelf in some cool. dark
closet and during the fruit season
stock the shelf with delicacies for the
long winter months. This may be
done little at time, so that the la
Dor will not be felt. 49, Philadelphia

Now that "foreheads are in," to
quote the famous phrase of the hair
dresser, the forward tilt of the hat is
imperative. Placed straight or on the
back of the head, it gives a bare, bleak
aspect to the brow which is by no
means. becoming. Of course, all fash
lonable women have discarded n
fringe, except such slight tendrils of
hair as serve to soften the outline OF
the temples The fringe, indeed,
which had become common to all
ranks, aud which was often to be
seen touzzled ill-combed and worse
brushed. cn unbecoming mat, indeed,
had sunk very low and was doomed
to extinction, but it must be remem-
bered that different style of hair
dressing demands different shape

The sailor collar is attached TO the

Indeed, the chief aim in working out
both these skirts 20 a logical conclu-
sion has been to make them OF a thor.

sailor suit. For summer wear it is
made OF linen. pique and chambray,
