USEFUL 1SUNDRIES

The fashion of dining in public has produced
in Paris an airy little mousseline toque trimmed
with gold, and having either an outstanding
aigrette or sweeping plume. This little cha
peau is worn to the theatre after dinner. A
kind of Marie Stuart cap is also being worn by
few women to whom it is becoming
Dietary experts warn people, especially city
dweers, against the too constant use of artificial
preparations and notifications of food For
continued use these are inferior to ordinary
foods cooked in the usual way. 1t is easier to
use cereals that require no cooking or are pre-.
pared by merely pouring boiling water; soups
that need only to be diluted and heated, etc.,
lack of proper nourshment. 1t is certain that
the corner delicatessen shop is responsible for
great many starved bodies. Children espe.
cially need solid food, hygienically cooked They
should be given the kind of food that requires
them TO use their teeth.

At the better class of skating rinks during the
afternoon and evening, especially the latter, the
gowning is 81 nilar to that worn for theatres,
many delicately colored cloths and dressy hats
being paraded by the fair whirers.
This, naturally, was too much for the enthu-

is seen at her best mufhed in her vevets and
furs, gliding like true queen over the ice
VELVET THE IDEAL MATERIAL FOR
SKATING TOGS
No material is quite so wintry and elegant in
combination with furs as velvet, and as this
year will be handed down as a ''velvet year" it
is not surprising that it has proved so popular
Corduroy and velveteen are more often EN-
ployed than silk velvet. They are less expensive
and when a good quality is purchased, quite as
durable as the finer grade of velvet.
All colors have been worn, wne-reds, brown,
blue and myrtle green's, but gray has possibly
been favored more than other shades, owing to
its extensive vogue. Black also, is distinctive
and especially attractive with ermine or white
fox. though the velvet rubs off on these perish.

was likewise bordered with ample cuffs. On the
head was Worn a little fur cap, not unlike the
sealskin caps worn by men of today; tippets and
pelerine encrcled the throat, and huge, granny
muff gave the final comfy" touch to this mode
of fifty years ago.
The Winter Girl of today does not look very
unlike her grandmother, inasmucb as the re-,
vival of longago styles has brought them back
in slightly modified form.
We have the huge, fiat granny muffs, the
large roll STYLE which is even newer or older,
shall we say; the broad scarfs reaching to the
shoulder, the quaint boas with ends tossing back
to float in the wind, and the little fur toques
with breasts of flowers clustered at the sides.
IN BLUE VELVETEEN
A stunning model in sapphire blue veveteen
is shown in the illustration.
The skirt is perfectly plain, circular, and
tghtftting, having circular cut fronts. The new
shaped collar and muf of ermine.
The model would be equally good in figured

Mr.. Shipman has spared neither
pains nor expense so far as the scenic
features are concerned. The scene
of the novel is laid chiefly in and
about Haddon Hall, which remains to-
day the best preserved and most pic
turesque manor house of the Eliza
bethan age. So that the proper atmos-
phere might be maintained, Mr.. Ship
man upon securing the stage rights
to Dorothy Vernon" cabled his Lon
don agents for photographs of Haddon

be used in the play These photo
graphs have been reproduced with
such fidelity, not only by scenic pain
tiers, but by stage carpenters, that
practical reproduction of this his

stage in the course of the production
In the matter of costumes, historic
drawings and tapestries have been
