WHAT TWO BELLIES WILL WEAR,
One to Appear in Cloth of Silver, Other
in Gold Tissue.


Already two lovely sisters in Phil
adelphia, one a blonde, the other a
brunette, know just what they will APP
pear in at a certain great ball next
winter.
The blonde will be in cloth of silver.
The brunette will wear gold tissue.
These materials are quite similar
Both are tissues of the most exquisite
quality.
The blonde, who is exquisitely fair,
will have no color at all about her
silver hardly counting as such. There
will be a little shlmmery real lace and
quantities of tulle which will be felt by
admiring eyes rather than seen. Her
only ornaments will be diamonds,
which will leave her golden hair and
her pansy eyes without rivals. The
dress will be a trailing princess, su-
perbly plain, mere simmer of moon
light and dainty enough for a fairy.
AS for the other of golden tissue, 1t
will be much daintler than 1t sounds.
There's no copper In the color. 1t is
more the clear, cool Guinea gold color,
and, indeed, it is perfectly refined and
not at all loud, heavy or showy-looking.
1t, too, will be made in the princess
style, with the bodice lightly, almost
loosely, draped. With the exception
Of this drapery the entire dress will
be plain, flowing superbly from the
! figure.
In this it's wearer will be a dark
eyed queen. Her jewels will be tur-
quoises set in diamonds. Just how
superb the turquoise are with the gold
you can't think. And the diamonds
give the necessary sparkle. Gold It's
sue is, indeed, among our loveliest
fabrics, and compared with the heavy
clumsy, old-time cloth of gold it seems
like tulle, so dainty are the cobwebby
threads woven.

Butter small tin molds and dust
them with powdered PARSLEY; then an
egg is dropped in eac.-, and they are
put in a pan of hot water and cooked
in the oven for about ten minutes,
when they may be turned out on
round platter, and a sauce made OF Il
cup Of thickened cream with chopped
mushrooms in it, or tomato-sauce
with the mushrooms may be poured
around them. These timbales may be
altered by lining the molds with finely
minced ham instead of the pars'ey,
but it must be moistened with cream
or egg to make it adhere to the tin.
The egg is put in and the sauce used as
before.

said unkind things about her uncle's
conduct toward him.

some one else would. 1t is still in the
family, which ought to be great COM

get on-he doesn't get on. 1 fear very
