is SURELY HER DAUGHTER

Fall River, Mass, Oct. 23.--All doubt
which has existed ais to the identity Of
the girl whose dismembered body was

ton was dispeled yesterday afternoon
when District Attorney James NJ. Swift

ella 81. Jean Of Woonsocket, X. T., had
positively identified the body as that Of
her missing daughter, Amelia.
The district attorney also said yester.
day afternoon that as result of the
autopsy held yesterday be can see nc
reason why the charge of murder

ney Swift gave out yesterday afternoon

When questioned regarding the au-
topsy the district attorney said that
Medical Examiner Thomas f. Cunning
had not reported officially as yet but
that from what sections OF the report
as he had read he said he felt convinced
that the charge Of murder against Pro-
fessor Hill would not have to be chang
ed.
Professor Whitney Of Harvard uni
versity IN a previous report said that
he believed carrots were eaten by the
girl few hours previous to her death.
He sent word yesterday afternoon. how
ever, that he had made more thorough
examination and WAS convinced that the
substance he thought were carrots Is
something else, What that something
else il he did not state.
Much significance is attached BY the
police to this second report The st.
Jean girl did not eat carrots al the din
ner she ate at the home Of her aunt
the Friday Of her disappearance. She
did have tea and bananas and these
were found By Professor Whitney at his
first preliminary examination.
The police appeared to be more conf.
dent yesterday afternoon after the nm
nouncement Of these points in their
favor had veen made. Inspector VIII
liam Medley who first went to work mp
on the theory that the murdered girl
was the missing Woonsocket girl ap-
peared to be especially pleased at the
way circumstances were shaping them
selves.

MADE WITH CHEESE
DIRECTIONS FOR TWO EXTREME
LY sAvoRY DISHES.
Aierettes Are Something 1t Is Well
for the Housewife Always to Have
on Hand-Cheese Relish
Something New.

| Cheese Aigrettes.-I have chosen
this recipe because cheese is always
popular savory, and the aigrettes
may be prepared beforehand, and will
only need reheatng just before serv-
ing. But if by any chance you happen
to have received present of Stilton
cheese, serve that instead. 1t is sure
to be appreciated. Hand with it tiny
dinner biscuits Now for the aigrettes.
Required Four ounces of flour,
half a pint of cold water, one ounce of
butter, two eggs, three ounces of
grated cheese, salt, pepper and
cayenne.
Dry and sieve the flour. Put the
butter and water in pan on the fire.
When it boils add the flour, and stir
the mixture over the fire until it will
leave the sides of the pan quite clean.
Let it cool slightly, then add the
eggs, beating each one in separately.
Next add the cheese and seasoning,
and spread the mixture on plate to
cool. Have ready some frying fat.
and when the faintest blue smoke is
just beginning to come from it drop
teaspoonful of the mixture into it, and
fry slowly till golden-brown. Drain
on paper. When they are to be served
heat and sprinkle with grated cheese.
| Cheese Relish.-Roll six crackers
fine, season with one-quarter teaspoon
of pepper, one teaspoon of salt and
one teaspoon of dry mustard. Put in
spider u cups of milk, butter size
of an English walnut, quarter of
pound or more if you wish of rich
cheese, shaved thin. When cheese is
melted stir in slowly the rolled crack
| ers and serve.

To Clean a Raincoat.

Macintosh coats which have be-
come hard and rigid may be easily
cleaned with lime and water, and
made to look as good as new. A hand
full of the best gray lime should be
dissolved in half bucketful of water,
and the mixture applied to the stiff
ened parts by means of piece of
sponge. This should be repeated at
The end of three or four hours.
Cashmere is always easily cleaned
and the spots removed if they are not
Of too long standing. A paste should
be made of fuller's earth and cold
water, and laid over the marks if
they do not yield to simple sponging
with water, to which few drops of
ammonia have been added. When
dry, the paste should be brushed off
and the garment well shaken in the
open air

ROASTING a Fowl.

A good way to roast tough foSl to
render IL tender and juicy as young
spring chicken, is by the French meth
cd: After twisting the wings of the
fowl over on the back and forcing the
legs up against the body snugly, secur-
ing them with skewer and twine, and
fastening the skin of the neck neatly
on the back with toopthpick, wrap 1t
entirely in soft paper, which should
be large enough to cover it twice; tie
with twine Put the fowl thus wrapped
into a hot oven, let it remain there
half an hour, after which remove the
paper, taking care to let all the grease
that may be in the paper run into the
pan Flour the fowl little, set it back
in the oven and roast. 1t will be found
exceedingly tender.-"Home Depart

bons for fastening basted on where
the stitching will pass over them and
hold them in place.
The two little sacques in the lower
part of the sketch are also machine
made. One is of white outing flannel
with pink dot, and pink wash ribbon
| binding and bows. The other is of
white cashmere, with blue and white

white flannel, with buttonholed edges
and ribbons of pink. This is one of
the best models for a jackef,s-as it
opens out fiat, all in one piece. thus
making it very easy to launder There
are ribbons tied under the arm to
hold the garment in place. For sum-
mer, this is an ideal model carried out
in pique, with colored ribbon, and a
little embroidery. The edges may be
ribbon bound if there is no time for
hand work, but every baby should
boast two or three hand embroidered
jackets for best"

~ ASHlONS for baby may sound
a bit far-fetched. yet fashions
there are, just as surely as for
grown ups. OF course there are
not the whimsical vagaries of
tht Paris modes, but each year one
finds preferences for certain styles
and materials in baby clothes. One
might call this corduroy year, for
that is the favorite material for coats
for the wee ones. One of the best
festures of corduroy is that 1t laun-
ders beautifully 1t comes in many
loo ely colors, and is particularly pref
ty IN white. 1t would be difficult to
Imagine a sweeter or more cozy-
looking coat and bonnet for very
spsll baby than one of white cordu
roy.
Snowy eiderdown is another favo
rite material for the tiny ones winter

material. A coat of white eiderdown
is shown in the upper right-hand cor
nev of the sketch. 1t is cut with the
sleeves and body in one piece, kimo
nv fashion.
bys coat and they are very becoming
It does away with the little shoulder
cape, which must be a great discom-
fort to the child, for the capes are al
ways blowing up into his face on
windy day. In the coat illustrated, a
dainty touch is given by little pink
rosebuds embroidered on the front
They are done with plain embroi-
dsry stitch and as there are only a
few of them, it would perhaps take
only an hour of two to work them, and
the result is well worth while.
The bonnet is of eiderdown. with an
embroidered bunch of wee pink rose
buds at each side.
The other sketch is cape and hood
f,yf summer of white cashmere. 1t is
buttonholed with silk and embroi-
dsred in the corner. The ties and bows
OIL the hood are of baby blue satin
ribbon, and there is a frill of lace in
side the hood. If one could not put
50 much hand work on the cape, the
same model is very attractive made of
white challis, henrietta or cashmere,
and bound on the edge with pink or
blue ribbon, in place of the buttonhol-
ing These capes are very pretty
made of pale blue or sea-shell pink
outing flannel, bound and tied with
matching wash ribbon.
In all babies clothes daintiness and
simplicity are the keynotes, though
the tiny garments must first be abso-
lutely comfortable.
IT is almost impossible for women
who have many household duties to
attend to do all the baby's sewing
by hand. OF course, it is preferable,
for the little dainty fine things seem
to require the most delicate of sewing.
However, there are many little jack
cts and wrappers that it would be a
waste Of time for the busy mother to
think of doing other than by machine,
for they wear out quickly.
There has been a fancy of late to
make the wee ones kimonos and
dressing sacques of gay flowered ma
terials, Japanese fashion. They are
remarkably pretty, too, these flower
aud butterfly and bird strewn gar
ments. Such tiny little things to be
so gay! The wrapper in the sketch is
the very essence of spring. 1t is a
creamy flannel, with apple blossoms
in delicate pinks, gorgeous butterflies
and brilliant birds scattered over it.
The ribbons are a lovely rose pink.
Every bit of this wrapper is made by
machine. 1t is cut on kimono lines
and fat scanned. The ribbon binding
