EDGINGs FOR PILLOW CASES.
Crochet Work the Best for Use in the
Hot Weather.

Crocheted edgings make a pretty
and useful finish for pillow cases used
during the summer, when simple bed
furnishings are preferred to the more
ornate. Many women keep a bit of
this crochet work at hand to do when
enjoying the cool breezes of the YER
anda or Willing away a few minutes
in their rooms. 1t makes excellent
pickup work.
The favorite crochet pattern for this
use is the Greek key, which is made
with the corner worked in the lace.
For shams the corner is necessary,
but for the pillow cases straight GRO
chet is all that is required. The
Greek key pattern is about two inches
in width, with battlemented edge.
The key design runs through the upper
side of the lace.
A wheel pattern looks well when
used this way and is simpler to make
on account of being narrower The IA
vorite one has a row of wheels through
the center and a fan-shaped edge.
The Worcester cross border is an
other effective pattern if one likes a
wider lace. When made it is at least
three inches in width.

SPEND TIME ON THE coIFFuRE.
Simple Effects Require Patience and
Artistic Taste.

Present coiffures reveal infinite pa
tience and infinite time in the doing,
and the effect is simple and artless in
the extreme. No more of your round
bullet heads, encircled with regular
and almost metallic waves achieved by
the systematic passage of a hot iron
mathematically balanced, and sur
mounted by a geometrical coil of pre-
else proportions and definite outline
all this is now thought provincial
prim, graceless, not to say demode.
Instead, the hair is bundled, rolled
twisted and looped with the appear
ance of carelessness and indefinite in
tention, high drawn here, dropping
there, now sweeping in smooth, long,
fiat stretch of shining lock, then break
ing into witching tendril or fascinat-
ing curl. The iron crumples up this
little spot, or bit of brilliantine
smoothes out that, after the coiffure
is almost completed, as the exigencies
of the hair ornament or hat suggest.
No two women wear their hair alike,
save that 1t is done over, invariably,
for the evening in more elaborate
fashion than for the morning.-Vogue.

Old JeweIry Fashionable.

Bring out your old-time trinkets this
summer, as they will be fashionable,
no matter how ancient they may be.
Old-fashioned necklaces will be espe-
cially in favor, and those with long
pendants are preferred. One such set
seen recently in the east was of the
bunch-of-grapes design, and attracted
great deal of attention, but they
were not used as earrings, but as
pendants for a necklace that was made
out of pair of bracelets of the same
design

A Sensible Idea.

In certain home is large reading
table and in the center of it is fas-
tened a hand-wrought mission lamp
that cost $12. 1t is securely fastened
to the center of the table with iron
screws and bolts underneath the table.
The owner explained that the lamp
was necessary in the room and the
children liked to play games on the
table or it was a favorite place for
study and they lived in constant dread
of lamp being tilted until the idea of
fastening it securely to the table was
thought of.

SAVES MUCH TIME
NEW COOKING UTENSIL THAT
is HANDY.
BY This Device Three Dishes May Be
Prepared at Once in the Same
Frying Pan = Welcomed
by Many

The New Frying Pan.-For the
woman who cooks for two great con-
venience will be found in the new fry
ing pan, in which it is possible to pre-
pore more than one dish at time,
thus saving fuel, utensils and trouble.
A picture in recent magazine shows
simple frying pan, with ordinary
handle and different only in having
partition in the center bent in the
shape of broad V. Another straight
piece goes from the point of the
to the other side of the PAN This
makes three compartments, and per-
mits the cooking of three dishes at
once.
For the bachelor girl in cramped
quarters who gets her own breakfast,
any device is help. Often her room
or studio is equipped with only one
gas burner, and it must be made to
do as much service as possible in
limited time. Among the girls at the
Art institute there are many who cook
their own meals with slim parapher-
nalia An actress in the Road to
Yesterday" company, recently said:
MANY of us prefer to breakfast in
our rooms rather thin bother to dress
and go to the hotel dining room early
in the day"
She proudly produced tin cup and
spirit lamp "by aid of which," she
said, Il can, in the course of human
events, boil an egg and make cup
of coffee" Her ambition was to have
a small gas burner and tube and a lit
tie frying pan of her very own. Think
of the Welsh rabbit could make, after
the play" she said. To such girl
and to thousands of her kind this new
frying pan ought to be very welcome.
Polish Tarts.-Roll some good puff
paste very thin. Cut into three-inch
squares. Brush each square with the
white of an egg, then fold the corners
SO that they all meet in the middle.
Brush over all with the white of an
egg, sift sugar over them and bake
in quick oven. When done, drop a
spoon of jam or jelly in the center
where the ends join.
Dried Peach Pie.-Until the fresh
peaches get bit cheaper, the average
housewife will make her family con.
tent with pie made of the dried fruit.
This is really very nice if carefully
prepared. To the stewed and sweet
ened fruit add some sweet cream and
a little butter. This, with some spice,
makes the pie delicious, and is well
worth the trouble and trifie of added
cost.
Cocoanut Pyramids.-These can be
made in ten minutes in the afternoon
if company comes in for cup of tear,
Beat the whites of two eggs with one -
half pound of powdered sugar; beat
well, until they will stand alone"
Then beat in one-half cup of dessi-
Gated (or grated) cocoanut and shape
into pyramids. They require no cook
ing, but should be placed in a creased
tin, or on paper, and Drowned in a
quick oven.-Chieago Journal

Ptunes Without SUGAR.

l wonder how many housewives
know that prunes require absolutely
no sweetening. l found by accident
that if they are cooked slowly for
hours and hours" there is a sugar
from them that nature provides as a
sweetening. In other words. they
sweeten themselves" and if cooked
long enough are covered with a rich
syrup, without one grain of sugar be-
ing added to them. The flavor is also
improved by this method of cooking
them, and the oftentimes despised
prune sauce becomes an enjoyable al
dition to the table.-Boston Post.

Uses of Paper.

The careful housewife has a use for
everything, and the daily papers are
by no means an inconsiderable factor
toward insuring clean kitchen. For
instance, supply of paper folded in
eight and hung up over the kitchen
sink will be found convenient to
slip under a hot kettle that has
just been lifted from the stove.
A store of full-sized printed sheets
should likewise be kept in the kitchen
table drawer, so that there is always
one handy to spread over the table
II necessary during work, which can
be afterward burnt.

Rridne Goats

Bridge coats and blouses of every
description are again to the fore, and
nothing can equal the smartness of
the lace coats, usually three-quarter
lengths, sometimes with long, hanging
points in front. and sometimes closed
up across the bust; and for these gar
ments crochet is first in favor. Eidle-
weiss lace, with design In the Greek
key pattern, is used for the three
quarter length coats with deep gilt
fronts, turning back in the form of
revers.

New hatpins are shown that fasten
to the bandeau with small spikes, and
from there they run with double
prongs through the hair. These novel
ties seem to hold the hat firmly in
place, more firmly than any of their
ornate cousins. and they cannot pos
