Tomato Cases for Sweet Corn.-No COM
bination of flavors is more delightful than
green corn and tomatoes, and now that the
latter are to be had large and ripe at low
price they may be served together in a
novel and appetizing form. Either corn
from the cob or a tender canned variety
may be used Scoop out enough of the in
terror of large, ripe, even-sized tomatoes
to leave a sufficiently thick skin. To each
half pint of corn pulp Of corn is canned,
chop fine and remove hard parts) add half
teaspoonful Of salt, two tablespoonful of
milk, dash. of pepper. simmer for ten
minutes, fill into the tomato cases, put
bit of butter on top, put on a fiat pan in
quick oven and bake for about half an hour.
If more tomato flavor is liked, use a little
of the pulp, which should be reserved for
a separate dish. In this case add sugar,
and unless the corn is very sweet, little
will be an improvement. Use only young
tender corn and rich, ripe tomatoes.
Green Corn Puddng--Baked brown and
served hot with roast meat or poultry, the
corn, young and either chopped fine if cam
ned or grated from the cob, the following
is a perfect dish: To a pint of corn pulp
allow the same of milk. four beaten eggs a
small teaspoonful of salt, dust of pepper,
a teaspoonful Of sugar and a little
chopped parsley, if liked. Bake half an
hour in a buttered dish. To vary this dish,
add another, egg to the above, and bake in
buttered cup stood in pan of water; turn
out and serve with a cream sauce or with
tomatoes in any way preferred. Those who
have not tried chopping canned corn before
using will scarcely believe the Improvement
in tenderness 1t makes; also a wise use of
sugar, either with corn or tomatoes. adds
richness Its presence should, however.
never be detected.
Fairy Corn Bread.-Made with green
corn, baked in a dish and served In light,
puffy slices, the following is a dainty
breakfast or luncheon dish: To each cup
full of corn pulp GRATED or choppeD allow
cup full of milk and cook for ten min
utes in double boiler; remove and add a
tablespoonful of butter; beat two eggs
separately, stir a cup of milk in the yolks
mix together, then sift in a cup full OF
yellow cornmeal mixed with a teaspoonful
of baking powder, beat WELL and just before
pouring the whole into a buttered baking
dish stir in the stiffened whites. Bake
three-luarters of an hour in a steady oven.
Delicious Homemade Syrup.-Every
one knows that the flavor of lemon with
sugar is delightful with hot griddle cakes,
and this fact may be utilized If the syrup
jug is found empty just at meal time. A

The sleeves seemed awkward after the
modest ones to which We have been ac-
customed. They were what in my juve-
nile days I should have called "three-story
sleeves" First, above the wrist was cuff
of aIl-over lace applied on white silk. The
second part of the sleeve consisted of puff
of handsome Powered velvet in white. pale

Later I was permitted to see my own re-

presently it flashed upon me that I was

queen wearing just such long, stiff, fiat
bodice made very tight below and rounded

What to Eat.

II the housekeeper will keep a supply OF
stock on hand the cooks daily labors will
be much lessened, for the broth may be
made the basis for any soup, materials be-
ing added according to the kind required.
The stock Is extracted from fresh flesh and
marrow bones combined in the proportion
of one pound of the former to two ounces
of the latter. Allowing one quart Of water
to a pound of the solid material, boil the
meat on good fire. When the water bub-
bles, skim the broth, and after this let it
simmer on the back of the stove for about
five hours. Season and strain into a stone
vessel; store the liquid where 1t can be
kept cool, and it will last for several days.
In order that all the grease may be removed
the stock should be prepared a day before
II Is needed.
The following are recipes for simple soups
made with stock:
Cream of Barley Soup.-Wash a teacupful
of barley and put into a saucepan with
two quarts of chicken stock. Add a chopped
onion, small piece of mace and a piece of
cinnamon stick. Let all simmer very gen
thy for three hours. Strain and rub the in
gradients through sieve. Return the stock
to the saucepan, adding one ounce of but
ter Beat two yolks of eggs with half a
pint of milk. Remove the pan from the
fire, strain the milk and eggs into the soup
Add pepper and salt
Vegetable Soup.-Take two ounces of but

four medium-siZed tomatoes, one table
spoonful of chopped parsley, three-quarters

The Beauty of All Women.


Every woman that exists has some point
OF beauty, possibly lying dormant, which
she can develop; 1t may be a cultivated in
tellect, an inspired soul. sweet nature, flne
presence, lovely form or beautiful face,
and somewhere on this great round globe
somebody has recognized that fact, or will.
So 1t behooves all womankind to look well
into themselves, and endeavor to improve
the good points. to ameliorate the unfor-
tunate ones, and entirely forget that they
have any bad ones. There Is nothing so
far-reaching as self-forgetfulness, either
where beauty exists or does not exist
Famous statesman on being asked what
ne considered the greatest type of beauty
In women replied: 1.-THE woman who is
beautiful and does not know IL. and the
homeiy woman who by her intelligence and
graceful bearing makes you forget It." Life

For Women With Big Feet.
e Shoe and Leather Gazette.

Women with large feet should bear one or
two things in mind. One Is that If they are
big women they have no right to expect to
have very small feet. A woman OF feet
6 inches height is entitled to a foot 0 1-3
inches long, and It might be a little longer
without making her feel that the world was
coming to end. Another thing the
largefooted sister should recollect is that
when she squeezes her foot into shoe too
small for her she does not disguise its size.
On the contrary, she makes this more ap-
parent. The foot spreads in its overnight
covering and Jumps out in the wrong place
and stretches the shoe out of shape in no
time at all.

Glace Gowns.

Very smart are some of the glace models
which are daily coming over from Paris.
Many Of them are trimmed with charming
applique work in velvet which gives the
necessary touch OF solidity to the simple
taffeta frock. Taffeta in the new shade of
green, with a large collar of Irish crochet,
made in simple Russian blouse fashion, with
wide belt, forms ravishing toilet. Some
of these taffetas are decorated with little
silk cords-that Is to say, the plain skirt
