there were occasional shows of strength

FOR THE COOK.

Chicken Jelly Sandwiches-To the
large and highly respectable family of
sandwiches may be added chicken jelly
sandwiches. Their merit is that they
keep most all day in a hot room, and
are well favored for even the delicate
palates that tire of almost everything.
Boil chicken until the meat falls from
the bones. Pack the pieces of chicken
in a deep creased dish and pour over
all half package of gelatine dissolved
in the chicken gravy. Add little pep
per and salt and moisten with the fat
SKINNED from the top of the liquid.
Apple sauce is frequently served with
roast pork and with roast duck. 1t Is,
however, good with bread and butter
for luncheon or with cream and sugar
for dessert. One way to make it re-
lquires the use of a little butter. Take
six large sour apples, peel and core
them. Stew them in a pint of water,
with four tablespoonfuls of sugar and
a heaping teaspoonful- of butter. Stew
them until they are soft enough for
sauce. A little cinnamon adds a pleas
ant flavor. and those who are fond Of
nutmeg often use it in the sauce.
A Delicious Breakfast Dish-Put a
pint Of water in a saucepan with a
heaping tablespoonful of butter. Put 1t
on the range, and when 1t Dolls thfcken
with a large tablespoonful of flour.
Have some smoked beef shredded or
cut in small pieces, and drop into the
Stewpan after the milk has been thick
ened. and let the beef cook only two
minutes. Pour into a deep dish and
serve at once.
Cream Taffy-A fine rich taffy is
made by boiling the sugar with milk or
part water and part cream, instead of
all water, using granulated sugar, and
flavoring highly with extract of va
nilla or lemon. the proportion of ingre-
dents being the same as the molasses
taffy. These taffies may be favored
with chocolate, coffee, ginger, rose, or
any fruit juice. and may also be made
of maple or light brown sugar accord
ing to the taste OF the maker. The
original ''taffy,'' or "toffie," Is of Eng
lish origin, and was invented by lady
of the little town of Everton. The lady
sent sample of it toitthe queen at
Windsor, who Immediately adopted 1t
as the favorite candy of her family.
A delicious dessert can be made out
of rice and almonds. Boil quarter of
pound of rice in pint and a half of
milk. To this add two ounces of
blanched sweet almonds and two

For any amount above 50 it is a safe
bet that at least 81 in change will in

Ii you look prosperous, and are ac-
companied by lady this dollar in coin
will probably assume the shape OF
two halves, in the hope that you can be
bulldozed into half-doIlar tip.
IF your check comes within from 20
to 40 cents of the amount you hand the
waiter, he will be very obsequious, and
consume an extra long time in getting
the change, so that If you are in
hurry or generously disposed, you may
permit him to keep the change.
This varied assortment OF change to
order is not the result of chance and
the cashier, but the change is furnished
the waiter in the exact proportions that
he asks for. He is governed entirely by
the amount of the check, the amount OF
change due, and whether the victim Is
accompanied by lady or not"

An evening gown is ever one OF the
chief eXtravagances of the debutante's
wardrobe and the shops this year are
replete with gauzy fabrics from all
parts of the world with which to sat
isfy the ever increasing demand for
something new. Many of the exqui-
site materials are SO sheer that the
gown evolved suggest fairies work, and
with these only rare old lace COM
bines artistically. Frequent simplicity
is strictly adhered to and there is little
or no trimming, the success of the gown
relying entirely on the color scheme
and the design.
Brocaded chiffon is one of the love-
lest of the French novelties, as is
shown in the model. The ground is an

the palest tea rose changeable loui-

:: THE WATERS TIP. ::

Careful observation of thrifty wait
ers," said patron of many restau-
rants, has enabled me to predict be-
forehand the exact number and value
of the coins the waiter will bring upon
tray in the way of change. 1t is
simply mathematical problem which
is solved by placing yourself in the po-
sition of the waiter and figuring upon
how much of tip the customer will
stand for.
IF man alone goes into cafe and
his check for breakfast, say, amounts
to As cents, he will usually give the
waiter a dollar bill. He will receive in
return three dimes and a quarter If
the waiter brought back two quarters
and nickel, the chances are that he
would get only the nickel as a tip, in
stead of the dime which he does get.
IF the man is accompanied by a
friend and the check amounts to 70
cents, the waiter will bring nickel
and quarter. He knows that no man
will tip waiter with nickel in the
presence of a guest. Therefore he gets
the quarter. The three dimes, q pecu-
liar combination, forthcoming so readi-
ly in the other instance, cannot be
found in the change from, 70-cent
check
'If the check for two happens to be
only go cents, the wise waiter will bring
you the change, 10-cent piece, in such
an open and promiscuous manner that
you viii tip him with an extra dime, if
you are afraid of being thought stingy.
IF you are indiscreet enough to have
a 50-cent check, you vii get two quar-
tiers In return at the best restaurants,
and some nickels and dimes at places
where the walters are not so avaricious.
IF your check comes to $1.20 or $3.50
and 81, and you pay with S. bill, you

ABOUTPEOPLE And THINGS

Mrs. Howard Gould has found a So
cial sponsor in Mrs. Richard P. Louns-
berry. That woman was on the bridge
of the Niagara on every day of the
yacht races. 1t is said when the win
ter season is under way this friendship
will be shown in the form of reception
for Mrs. Gould. Mrs. Lounsberry was
Miss Edith L. Haggin, and the Hag-
gins are advancing socially at a great
rate. So, after all, Mrs. Gould may not
have striven in vain. Her sistersin-
law have little in common with her,
although there was a superficial recon-
ciliation after the marriage. Folk who
know Mrs. Howard Gould say she is a
most charming woman, with nothing of
the stage in her manner.
1t is whispered in Newport that Mrs.
BaylieS will live up to her title of 1.-The
best dressed woman in society,"" Her
Paris gowns are said to be marvels.
The truth is that Mrs. BaylieS does not
wear highly expensive gowns. She
plans every frock and she looks as we'll
in simple dimity as most women do in
a brocade. Her husband is not even a
millionaire, yet she moves in little set
composed almost entirely of this class.
But her family is all that may be de-
sired. She was a Van Rensselaer, and
her first cousin is Mrs. Ogden Mills
That is why Mrs. Baylies is now one of
the most important women in society,"
With the seal of approval stamped
upon his classic brow, Senior Alfonso
Pontecowo, the great Italian tenor, who
made his first appearance in Newport
society through the only recognized
portal Of aristocracy, Mrs. Astor's ball,
is being showed under by an avalanche
of invitations to dinner and house par
ties in the Adirondacks and on Long
Island. His sweet, magnetic voice, his
long, waving hair and face of marble
like pallor attract and hold the atten-
ton of the leaders of the smart set
on this side of the Atlantic as they
captivated and enchanted the nobility
in the larger cities on the continent.
1t will be impossible for the celebrated
singer to accept all the offers of hos
pitality which he has received, but he
confidently expects to favor with his
presence Mr.. and Mrs. w. Pierson

PRETTY THINGS TO WEAR.

The .gaily decorated stockings of the
summer show no signs of retiring
with the approach of winter. In fact,
they are growing brighter, green, pur-
pie and rich red being considered per-
fectly correct with black and white

instep with black lace, are favorites,
and the brides stockings are now en-
broidered with her favorite flower,

The rage for feathers in the new
millinery has led to the production Of
some novelties which are more curious
than desirable. Quilts of the broader
kind are painted to resemble a tartan,
and there are "cakewalk" ostrich
plumes in either dark blue or brown,
tipped with shaded blue, green, white
or red. There are "cakewalk" ribbons,
too, in equally Objectionable combina-

apples. but, whatever is used, boil it
until it is reduced one-half. Fill the
hoIes with apple, grape or any bright
