will probably be finished by the time
the curbing work is completed. That
block is the most difficult with which
the street improvement crew has been
emploved.

TWO COATS WITH ONE SKIRT,
Usual Order of Things Reversed In
Tailored Costumes.

n finds the order of things some
what reversed in the way of tailored
costumes, two coats being frequently
used with one skirt instead OF vice
versa, as formerly. The pretty coat,
arranged for a pongee skirt for warm
weather, is very, very plain. The fronts
are curved into the figure slightly and
meet in single-breasted fashion. There
are darts from the bust line. and Just
below the waist these switch off very
suddenly to a distance half way be-
tween the fastening of the coat and
the arm seams. Here the stitching
stops and there is a deep slash,
trimmed on either side with large but
tons covered with pongee silk. The
buttons used for adjusting the model
are made of the same material, but
much smaller in size.
The sleeves are long and close fit.
ting, showing very novel cuffs. These
are turned back in regular style, but
supplied with tiny pin-money pockets
with little laps secured with pink-coy-
cred buttons. Pockets seem to be a
much-favored establishment for tai.
lored frocks. They are not built
with a view to service, primarily, but
give the couturieres a chance to ring
IN any number Of original ideas that
add indescribably to the effectiveness
of a gown.

Modesty in Dress.

The average woman ought to stick
to n OF two standard colors instead
of trying to establish some combina-
ton between a cerise hat, a pale blue
boa, a suit of heliotrope and tan shoes.
The woman, who limits the colors Of
her wardrobe to a quiet scheme of blue
and white and gray need never be
afraid, however slender her income, of
being inharmoniously dressed. I'm
fortunately, the less some women have
to spend on dress the more they seem
determined to buy with it, and desir-
ing to create the impression of a linn
itless wardrobe they succeed only in
looking like an overloaded Christmas
tree.

Return Of the Banu.

Bangs are coming back in fashion,
but that does not mean that young
ladies need cut their front hair short
and do it up in crimps at night, Meth.
er smear it with the sticky ounce seed
and bandoline lotions of ancient bans
days.
The new bang is a soft, fluffy row OF
what are called pincurls resting on the
forehead, just below the pompadour,
and they are called pincurls presum-
ably because a good many of them are
attached to a hairpin arrangement and
tucked in after the pompadour is fin
ished. That is to say, they have no
more connection with the wearer's
head than have the braids and puffs
and curls that decorate the top of it.
This little row of curly bangs across
the forehead is to be considered more
and more au fait as the days go by.

the yolks OF three eggs and add to the
liquid. Stand the saucepan in a
larger saucepan of boiling water on

ounces of butter, stirring the sauce
until it has become thick enough to
coat the spoon. Now strain the sauce,

teaspoon of chopped parsley. Reheat

ELABORATE BLOUSE IN STYLE.
Popular Combinations Fashioned ir
Linen and Lace.

The innovation of the jumper and
guimpe dress was foretold as the end
of the lingerie blouse, but the false
prophet knows not the ways of woman
and her constancy to the particular
article of dress which has taken her
fancy. Then how could there be a
really correct tailored suit if blouses
were to be disregarded? What could
ever Paris find to take the place of
the exquisite bit of linen and lace?
The new blouses are chiefly interest
ing for the variety in arrangement and
trimming and, although a blouse is a
blouse from every standpoint, there
are ugly blouses and pretty blouses,
and the models of the year are classed
under the latter heading.
The combination of a half dozen bits
of different laces is considered smart
this season, while hand embroidery is
employed as a connecting, link to hold
the samples together. Irish, flet,
cluny, valenciennes-these are the
oftenest used, although duchess and
applique come in for their share.
A tendency to the small yoke is evil
denced, especially on the shoulders,
while tailored waists are usually made
with long sleeves, though the blouses
for more pretentious suits have three
quarter sleeves, as during last year.
The new small yokes are made with
an arrangement of tucks and insertion,
while the linen blouses are inlaid with
English eyelet work. Still others are
provided with ruffies and cuffs whose
scallops have been hand-embroidered.
Irish crochet is "let in" a great many
of the Partisan models, and, of course.
embroidered flet is both effective and
becoming.
The blouse has been growing for the
past few seasons, always more elab-
crate and more dressy. The stiff
tucked but untrimmed shirt waists of
a semi-decade past have been rele-
gated to the trunks containing grand
mothers finery and grandfather's uni
forms.

Then make a custard with these, and

until firm in the center. Turn out

FOR A DAINTY SANDWICH.
Riqht Kind OF Bread and Proper Knife
Are Essential.

The reason SO many persons think
make is that they have neither the
right kind of bread nor the proper
knives to cut it with.
When making sandwiches in quanti-
ties it is much better to have a long
square loaf with a perfectly even,
smooth crust. The grain should also be
close, as the porous bread is more apt
to break.
Such a shape permits the slice to be
cut diagonally to make two triangles or
it can be divided into three strips for
oblong sandwiches,
Some, people cut off the crusts be-
fore slicing the bread, but unless it is
a day old it issmore apt to break than
If the crusts are not removed until
the sandwich has been made. H.
A long, thin knife blade kept very
sharp is essential if the edges of the
sandwich are to look clean cut. When
shaped cutters in. the form of circles.
stars or crescents are used, they
should never be allowed to get dull.
Always butter the bread before cut
ting it from the loaf, Have butter
fresh and slightly soft so it spreads
quickly. Do not use too much of it,
but always put it on both slices OF
bread.
Fit slices evenly together. If the
square loaf is used this is an easy mat
ter; with an irregular loaf care is
needed to put opposite sides together
or there will be waste in shaping.
Should the sandwiches not be needed
for several hours after making, wrap
them in a damp towel and put them in
an alright box.
Whatever the filling, do not stint it
and use plenty of seasoning, as a taste
less sandwich is far from appetizing.
