on last May! We'll, Just call 70 mind the
difference between Madge L. and Jessie
k.
'Madge was lawfully pretty. but she was
dressed to kill. with her waist squeezed in
to twenty inches. Size could not have done
anything but look pretty to save her life.
And then think Of little Jess. She wore
a Peter Thompson suit turned in at the
neck; her waist was as big as nature in
tended II to be, and she romped like a
boy; and every man in the place admired
her tremendously. She's alright, is Jess;
for she's a real sirly girl with II all.
Harry. you are as good as a lecture on
physical culture laughed his sister.
That's all right, Sis" said the boy
earnestly, but II you talked to most Of the
fellows you'd find that they think Just as
I do on the girl question. wholesomenes
for ours, everytime.'
CalIas.
Take three eggs, one and one-half cups
of sugar, half a cup of water. one tea
spoon lemon extract, or Juice and rind OF

and the whites OF three eggs. Beat the
yolks Of eggs, add the sugar, lemon Juice,
and water, flour mixed with the soda and
cream tartar; lastly the whites OF the

While warm, roll in cornucopla shape and

Of candied apricot. This is a pretty dish
for a luncheon.
what the FAN bride shouId Buy.
II there is one year in a girls life in
which she wants to look her best in her
room and house II Is the first year she is
married, declares Anne Rittenhouse in the
Philadelphia Ledger.
For that time she wants all manner Of
dainty frocks and wrappers. These she can
make at home, or, better still, buy at small
price during the August sales.
This is one class of clothes that 1t is
economy to pick up now. Little princess
gowns Of colored muslin or b~atiste, jumper
suits of foulard in the fashionable colors
that only require a yoke and sleeves Of
good lace to CONVEX into smart house
own Dotted Swiss frocks that may be
put over colored Innings Of silk mull-ail
these are to be had for a small outlay OF
the trousseau money.
They will serve all winter, not only for
ones own house, but for all manner OF
small social occasions. II a prospective
bride can afford it she should have at
least one low-necked princess slip Of tat

frock.
For evenings when she does not wish
to put on a boned frock she should have
an empire tea gown made of inexpensive
fabric. 1t must be far removed from a
wrapper. There are dozens of 25-cent fab
RIGS on the counters now that can be used
for such a tea gown.
All the gauSes, cotton chiffons, silky
cotton voiles and even the dotted silk
mulls are used. There must be a lining
and the tea gown must fasten down the
back to give II an ''air."
II can be cut out into a Dutch neck
and the unlined sleeves made close to
the arm, may be cut off above the elbow,
although the wrinkle mousquetaire is
prettier on any but a rounded, we'll shaped
arm.
The method of placing a large soft CIR
die around the figure under the arms is
very effective. 1t is finished at the back
in an upright bow with W long ends.
A ribbon may be worn in the hair to
