color does not come off.
A woman vino does ner own house
work for herself and husband makes
| butter of the cream which she has left
from day to day. AS soon as the cream
| is sour it is turned into a bowl and with
| the egg beaten is whipped until the whey
! and butter separate, an operation that
| takes only few minutes when the
cream is thick. Then the whey is
| drained off and worked out of the but
ter in bowl of ice water. Then salt is
worked in. A cupful of thick cream
will make half a cupful of butter.
The short coat is back with walking
suits and plated skirts. With the pres
ent vogue for long coats and plain skirts
such suits have an odd air, but even they
have straight lines unbroken from neck
| to skirt hem except for a slight dipping
| in at the waist line.
One of the innovations of the early
summer is the big circular cape made of
| the same material as the princess gown
with which 1t is worn. 1t sometimes
! has a thin silk lining and at other times
| it has no lining. The cape fastens with
tasselled cord or with ribbons from the
collarless neck. Military collars have
| been seen on them.
A cure for mildew that is the remedy
of an old negro laundress, is excellent
| for all white goods, and will not injure
| fine materials. Pour a quart of boiling
water over two ounces of chloride of
| lime, and three quarts of cold water, let
| the mixture stand until settled, strain,
| and it is ready for USE The material
! should be stepped in the lime water for
| a day or over night, when the spots will
| be found to have disappeared.
| In sweeping a room covered with mat
ting, do not use tea leaves to keep down
| the dust. They discolor the fiber of the
mating. Bits Of damp newspaper will
do no harm. By giving mating a Sec
ond sweeping with the broom covered
with a flannel bag much dust will be
gathered which escaped the first sweep
| ing. Mating should never be laid with
out an under layer of paper-ordinary
This lining will double the length of this
cool floor coverings time of service.
! The newest directoire collar shows a
marked Improvement in finish. 1t has a
soft fold of ribbon at the base of a
thick ruching, and instead of the RIB
bon ending in a bow, it is drawn through
a long gilt or jet buckle in the front, a
cascade or fluffy jabot displaying itself
down the front of the waist. This buckle
is so much more generally becoming than
a bow of ribbon, and the certain air of
trimness it imparts to the collar makes
it appropriate for wear with tailored
gowns as we'll as those on a more dressy
order.
If there is a shortage in the egg sup
ply when an omelet is wanted, use a
cupful of bread crumbs to every four
eggs and the same quantity, OF milk:
This is a very tasty omelet it seasoned
and cooked right. 1t may be sprinkled
with a couple of tablespoonful of cheese
just before taking from the pan, if it is
wanted.
A novel way of utilizing a number of
short lengths of black satin ribbons that
had been formerly loops in an immense
bow is to apply them in sWastlka style
to plain red blanket that may be used
as couch cover in a boys den. These
figures set on as a border, using the ma
chine to stitch down, must be decorated
with hit-and miss stitches in gay c0lors.
Cushion covers Of denim Or craftsman
canvas for piazza or the living, room
could be made very effective by the ap-
plication of one or more of the swastika
signs.
To make harlequin salad, boil young
chicken. remove skin, and cut meat from
the bones. Cut meat into small pieces.
Line a deep salad bowl with tender
young lettuce leaves and strips of bacon
fried golden brown. Turn in the chicken,
we'll seasoned, add green peppers cut
into shreds chopped stuffed olives,
chopped nut meats, cucumbers sliced,
and hard-boiled eggs cut in quarters.
Cover with mayonnaise favored with
inTo0n i11icn and 1rOnnp6 from Sn0On.
Garnish with slices of lemon and sprigs
of young mint leaves. Serve with slices
of buttered toast and cream cheese.
A stationery novelty which is calcu-
lated to make the modern youngster en-
Joy his writing exercise is an unusual
writing pad. The novelty lies in the
cover which is decorated with six diff
ferent decalcomania pictures. These are
intended to be cut out when the tablet
is exhausted and transferred to card
board or boxes by the process which
every child is familiar with.
There are several different sets of pic
lures used OH the pads. One group con-
sists of Indian heads, another shows a
menagerie, and yet another spirited
circus
The classical large hat that never goes
really out of fashion will be seen this
summer for large functions and ceremo-
NOUS occasions. 1t is trimmed this sea
son with bouquet of ostrich tips, set
| far back to the left side and at the back:
Instead of the tips, the long ''amazone"
is sometimes used, but the tips are the
newest and smartest. More science goes
to the placing of these feathers than
might be imagined. The. balance of the
silhouette depends greatly on the trim
ming of the hat. and it is her under
| standing of this principle that makes the
Partisan milliner so successful.
ANY girl who embroiders may possess
dainty lingerie this year, for the work is
quite simple and the garments may be
| bought already stamped. 1t is a good
idea to have the garments match through
out, and this is easily done, for the sep
arate pieces can be had bearing the
same pattern. One of the simplest and
| most effective designs is in French polka
dots, which are stamped on the ruffies,
the edges of which are scalloped in but
tonhole stitch. Conventional scroll de-
signs and little trailing vines are also
| good There is really no end to the pref
