laborer can dine upon what would have
afforded Apicius a feast
During Lent fresh salmon, paddock,
halibut, founders, whitefsh, smelts, bass,
soles, eels, Spanish mackerel, Sleeps
head, whitehall, herring, white and yell
low perch, sea trout. tomcods, shad cat
fish, carp. Holsters, crabs, oysters, clans,
shrimps and scallops are all in season.
Ordinarily fish is merely one of the
courses at dinner, but when meat is cut
off during Lent the fish may be promot-
ed to make the principal dish. From
the hygienic standpoint there is a good
deal of common sense in Lenten dieting.
The constant eating of meat is bad for
the human system, and abstinence from
it even for forty days will give the di-
gestive system an opportunity to recu-
perate, for fish is much easier to digest
The cost of fish may be judged from
the following general statement of sizes
and price per pound, although dealers
even in the same town differ in their
scale of prices. As a general thing
fresh cod weighs from four to twenty
pounds and costs at the rate of or 10
cents a pound; paddock weighs from
four to eight pounds and costs to

cents; founder, one to five pounds, at
the rate of to 10 cents; bluefs-., three
to ten pounds, at a cost of about 10
cents a pound; whitefish averages four
or five pounds and costs about 20 cents;
eels weigh from half a pound to a
pound and a half and cost 10 to Is cents;
halibut is worth about 20 cents pound
if of the best quality salmon, 20 to SO
cents; mackerel to 20 cents. Shad is
expensive at present, a single fish cost
ing sometimes as high as a dollar, al
though worth not more than a quarter of
that sum later. CLANS cost 20 cents a
quart; crabs 81 to $3.50 dozen; oys-
ters, 30 to 60 cents a quart.
Salmon, herring, mackerel and trout
soon spoil and should if possible, be
used the day that they are caught. In
valids will find cod, haddock, whiting
and all fat fishes good.
To detect their freshness notice that
the flesh is firm and well covered with
scales and that the eyes are bright.
The dealer viii remove the entrails when
the fish is purchased.
If the fish is to be served whole, the
head and fins should not be removed
although the latter must be trimmed a

French Empire styles.

Many have been the discussions be-
tween women of the world as to what
should be MADE the predominant feature
of the seasons fashion. For long time
past the empire mode has triumphed in
Partisan salons, and many and varied
have been the adaptations of this classic
style of robe. But now women are going
further and have decreed that in GER
tain ultra smart set even the street cos
tunes and ordinary indoor gowns shall
follow the lines Of the straight Greek
dress. In cloth, with the short waist in
corselet form of velvet and dull gold en-
brcidery, the result is very satisfactory,
and border of narrow fur headed with
band of the same embroidery makes a
smart finish. Long nantes in pastel
shades of cloth with handsome soutache
embroidery and high, outstanding collars,
generally lined with fur will be worn.
The empire sack coat, with its many
capes, will hold it's own, each cape being
bordered with pipings of taffeta braid.
For indoor wear or, indeed, equally
serviceable for outdoors if covered with
a warm mantle, is the long, straight
tunic in mousseline de sole or crepe de
chine which falls over a foundation of
soft English satin or dull soft silk The
beauty of these gowns will be enhanced
by the wearing Of corselets instead of
stays. A charming model of the newest
description has a corselet put on sepa-
rately, combining and supporting the bust

stocking suspenders, supports the lower

Indeed, to all purposes, the costume was
admirably suited for walking or bicy-
cling. The back of the skirt was sup
piled with two vertical stitched bands,
which supplied the postillion effect so
imperative in smart gowns. The coat
was a b1oused affair with wide stitched

pleted by a double row Of jeweled but
tons. The sleeves, which We're of the
wide, flowing kind we are accustomed to
see on the winter wraps, were finished be-
low with bands of stitched cloth.
One might have fancied that the long
wrap would disappear with the winter.
Not so; some of the handsomest Riviera
coats are full length. OF pale gray cloth
trimmed with vertical bands of lace
braid was one elegant affair made for
Nice and intended for one of the most
notable women of the fashionable colony.
The sleeves were double, harlng below
the elbow and lined with a plated frill
Of chiffon falling over the fingers. The
collar reSembled cape and was lndent-
ed on the shoulders. The revers were
doubled also. The coat f1ared open, and
under it was worn a very much ruffied
bertha of lace and chiffon.

A handsome lace veil is sometimes drap-
ed over hat, but is seldom drawn over

Boas of chiffon and flowers are among
the dainty touches needed to give COM
pleteneSS to the spring toilets, and, while
there are many new details, there IS
nothing radically fresh in the designs.
The long ends, reaching almost to the
bottom of the skirt, are features of the
more expensive ones. Figured liberty

are considered very smart and when fin

costume with which it is worn. Ribbons
are introduced in the ends of the boas,
and very durable neck ruffles are made Of
a SOFT fine silk. Strands of silk, mousse
line or chiffon flowers are completed by
scarfs of soft, flowing material.
The greatest possible variety is given
to sleeve designs. They range from
comparatively plain. tight fitting ones
to deliberately puffed and strapped af

Art nouveau styles are adopted in man
