Potato Salad, Country Style.
There are still many persons to
whom the flavor of olive oil is not
agreeable, and for their benefit We
give the following method of making
a potato salad, which was highly rec,
commended by the presiding genius of
a farm house in one of the New Eng
land hill towns. Boil a number of
potatoes and mash and season them
while hot with salt, pepper, cream and
butter, and, according to your taste,
with finely minced onion. Pack the
potato in bowl and put down cell
lar or on ice to become very cold.
When ready for supper turn it from
the bowl, cut it N slices and eat it
with vinegar. We have here all the
ingredients usually found in a dress
ing, and butter is used in place of
oil, and the method of combining them
with the potato is not common.
Paris Latest Prodigy.
Paris has a new prodigy. Every
now and then some child wonder is
launched forth as an incipient genius,
but the latest of them all seems to be
a really extraordinary child, if we are
to believe reports. She is a 10 year
old playwright, Carmen d'Assilva. She
has written ten plays and a number
of monologues in prose and verse, and
admittance with full members rights
into the Society of French Dramatic
Authors, of which M. Victorien Sardou
is president. Until her admission
Edmond Rostand was the youngest
member. but he is 35-quite a veteran
beside the 10.year-old playwright.
In an interview, the youthful
authoress says her favorite game Is
hide-and-seek She does not care
much for dolls, although she owns
one She thinks out the plot of her
plays lying on a sofa and gazing at
the ceiling. She is now writing a
four act play which she aspires to
have produced at the Coincide
Franchise.
The following is a translation of a
representative poem by Mile Carmen
d'Assilva:
Lovely Walking Dresses.

walking dress of dark green zibeline
cloth was made with a bias skirt
laid in one large box-plait al the
back and two small side plaitings tn
each side. The front of the skirt
crossed over to fasten all the way
down on the left side, where it was
attached with three black velvet
loops through steel buckles. The
coat was a modified sack, slightly
fitted in the back, not In any way
to touch tho figure, however, with a
deep cape bordered with bands Of
black velevt, and trimmed on the
edge with fur With this was worn
smart hat of shaggy green felt,
trimmed with a twist of taffeta in
brown and amber. with here and
there dashes of Indian red.
Couteaux were stuck in on the side.
Another gown of noisette brown
had a new note in the trimming on
the skirt. 1t consisted of bias
band like narrow but perfectly fat
shaped rufilc put on all around a
quarter of yard or so from the
bottom, and piped with black satin.
This gown was worn with a lovely
bolero of caracal, with a vest front
Of black satin, covered with pieces
Of black braid put on in V shape.
