Fancy Waist.

Full waists worn with fancy boleros
are extremely smart and allow Of
many charming and effective combin-
atoms. This one shows a full waist
of dotted silk null with slashed bo-
lero of pale green mousseline taffeta
which matches the skirt, but there are
numberless other materials that are
equally desirable Veilings are always
pretty made with waists of either
thin, soft silks or muslin and very
nearly all the seasons fabrics can
be utilized The yoke of lace with col
lar to match makes an attractive fea-
ture and is finished with lace or other
banding when the boIero is not used.
The waist is made with a fitted lin
ing on which the full fronts and back
are arranged and is closed invisibly
at, and on a line with the left edge of
the yoke which is hooked over onto
the left shoulder seam. The sleeves
are wide and full finished with double
frills, and can be made full length by
using Innings to the wrists and facing
the lower portions to form cuffs The
slashed bolero is cut in one piece and
is arranged over the waist, being

Useful Fruits.

Figs, dates and prunes are all time
ly at this season, and make valuable
addition to the ordinary bill of fare.
Each of these fruits should be thor
oughly washed before using.
If you have never had graham gems

cipe and see if it will not be called
for again: Beat the yolk of one egg
with a, half teaspoonful of salt until
lemon colored and thick. Add to this
one cupful of milk, halr a cupful Of
boiled rice, cup and half of gra-
ham flour and half a teaspoonful of
melted butter. Beat the mixture until
1t is bubbly. Then add carefully one
quarter cupful of chopped dates, one
teaspoonful of baking powder, and
the stiffiy beaten whites of two eggs.
Fold in, but do not stir. Fill buttered
gem tins half full and bake in a slow
oven.
