Uses of Parafhne Paper.

one of the handiest things to have in the
pantry is a roll of paraffine paper in fair
| sized sheets. writes Annabel Lee in Good
! Housekeeping. l use it to cover over jelly
cutting out circle a trffle larger than
the jelly surface and pressing 1T closely
over the top of the jelly, then gluing
larger circle of strong white paper over the
top OF the glass. When ice cream IS frozen
and ready to pack in a mold, a sheet of
paraffine paper makes the tin both water
and airtight. In Steaming a fruit pudding
or brown bread d circle of this paper is
shut into the cover of the tin. Paratfine
paper is useful to put around dried beef,
salt fish, butter or cheese. keeping out
the air and preventing odors from escaping
or entering the package. Before croquettes
are rolled into shape it is excellent plan
to spread sheet of the paper over the
cooling mixture to prevent hard crust
from forming. In candy making, paratfine
paper is indispensable 70 wrap around the
sticky SWeetmcatS. For a picnic lunch.
this paper serves to keep sandwiches moist
and to prevent pickles from favoring cv
erNthing near them If q frosted cake IS
to be packed and sent any distance,
sheet Of paranine will save the froSting.
BY using a sharp pencil and parattine
paper an embroidery design may be trans
ferred. When flowers are to be sent away,
they will keep fresh for some time if well
sprinkled, placed in a box and wrapped
in paraftine paper. The best kind of paper
is that used by confectioners, as it is
strong and well coated with wax. The
cheaper kind. often used to wrap around
ca kes of butter, is thinner and not so
adaptable to household uses.

Old-Fashioned Brides Wanted.

While the tendency is toward beginning
married life upon somewhat lavish scale,
the bride who is satisfied to do her own
housework or part of it is not yet eX-
tinct.
She usually starts out In her new life
with knowledge of cookery obtained
from a course at some first-class cook
ing school and training in bed max

home under the experienced eye of her

her own room since she was old and strong
enough to handle the articles in it, and
had otherwise eased the burden Of house,

Living in moderate way, she expected
nothing above 1t when she married, but
was content to begin in simple fashion. no
matter how simple. as long as debt was

A pretty and simple frock for a young
girl was made of ivory silk vole; the skirt
was caught up each hip. giving the
slightest suggestion of pannier with this
exception it was quite plain. The baby
bodice was finished with a deep berthe of
lace. incrusted with small motifs of green
jeweled passementerte and pointed green
sash of satin antique The Marie Antoin-
cite sleeves consisted of one graduated ac-
Gordon plated frill held by straps of green
passementerie and showing glimpses of the
bare arm at the top.
For Dancing Dresses.
Floral decorations are being used on real
dancing frocks. A pretty rose crepe de
chine was gagged over the hips and had a
very full fiounce put on just below the
knees. with a wreath of pink roses and
green foliage. The decolletage of the gaug-
ed bodice was edged in the same way, and
this was the sole form of decoration; it was
rather effective for dancing frock. with a
wide, swathed waistband of green taf1eta.

just escape the ground combine graceful

Vacation days bring anxiety as well as
pleasure. The winter stay-at-hOme can
dodge the question of dress to some extent,
but with the summer jaunt it becomes a
pertinent one. To the girl who must crowd
her vacation within the narrow limits of a
fortnight it becomes even greater source
of anxiety. To dress to pass muster
with the gay butterflies who are prepared
to idle away the whole summer and to
compress the most necessary of the con-
tents of the latters four five trunks in
to the confines of a steamer trunk, these
all-mportant considerations.

seashore or mountains. a wool Dress il a
