Frnits Used in SaLads

Amy one who likes to have salad
every day and wants variety in it will
often reach the place where she finds
it hard to think of something new.
While the combinations that can be
used in salads are very numerous,
some people do not like all kinds OF
vegetables, and when they have gone
through the list Of those they do like
they will do we'll to turn their atten-
ton to fruit salads.
Many kinds OF fruit can be used;
sometimes just one served with lettuce
and sometimes two or three together.
Grape fruit is one of the latest fruit
salads, and that should be used alone
with the lettuce. Oranges too, are
good used in this way, but they can al
so be combined with either bananas Oh
Malaga grapes. Pineapples can alsc
be used with oranges or alone foi
salad.
Apples have long been used fci
salads, and they combine best with eel
cry or nuts or with both Of these. On'
thing must always be remembered
about an apple salad. and that iH neye
to cut the apples long before they ar
to be used or they will turn dark.
Pears can also be used. especially tn
alligator pears, Of which this is tn
principal use. But as they cost 3
cents each today, they are not likel
/ to be used often at present All th
rest OF these fruits are reasonabl
enough to use as much as one want
TO. and there is an ample supply Of a

Pretty Things in the Shops

Black gowns are again to be in high
favor. They are made in all materials
and the variety both in texture and
design in the new black goods Is nu-
merous and charming.
The black lace gown. with its rich
ornamentation and pronounced ele-
gance of style. is suited to any occa-
sion. and is therefore the best sort OF
economy Among the new ones the
long hanging lace sleeves and the ad-
iustment of the draped bodice give a
most artistic and smart effect.
Color study is brought to a fine art
these DAYS. and many now and charm
ing shades and tones are the result.
An attractive new shade is al blending
of gray and green, that shows TO love
ly effect when made up in combination
with cream guipure lace and tOuch
of black velvet here and there.
Quantities of robe gowns for spring
land summer are now seen in the shops
those of linen being among the smart
eat and most useful More trimming
than usual is included with the mater
ian for the bodice and the linen is IN
beautiful "sheeny" sheer quality.

rows OF small coral beads, making IL
