Costumes for Tancy
 Dress

TNHIS is the season of the fancy H dress party, more interesting
 to many, no doubt, than formal
 evening entertainments. Be- sides the well-known characters of his tory and fiction. there are the flower costumes that are wonderfully pretty. The daisy has finely plaited or gathcred ankle-lergth skirt of yellow cheese-cloth or tarlatan, or more expensive materials If you like, though the effect for one evenings wear will be very little bet ter. Over this not very full skirt of white sateen or lining canlbric, gathered at the waist and slashed its full length to form the daisy petals, each of which should be tapercd to a rounded point at the end and not quite so long as the yellow skirt The fitted waist should be green, ard little points of the green, reaching not quite to the h;p, should be added as a peplum, waist and points representing the calyx of the blossom. Trim the neck and dress the hair with daisies; paper flowers will be capital for this purpose. A water-ily costume would be made in similar fashion, but the lily petals should be wider and not so long. Trim the waist with grasses of green crepe. paper. As the certers of most flowers are yellow; the lower skirt in most cases will be that color, and a
 
 various flower models.
 A witch's costume Is not difficult to compass. Make 1t of gray cashmere, flannclctte, ckccse-cloth or similar soft material. 4 Japanese kimeno will an swer as a model for the domino, and the foundation Of the tail peaked hat may be buckram or cardboard, rolled into pointed cone and with narrow circular briIn sewed to it. Cover the hat 1r- rT21 of dress wind about 1t scarf Of gray chiffon tarlatan that has been drawn through the hands to soften 1t. The ends of the scarf are supposed to be the cobwebs that float on the air. At one side of the hat place an owl of the familiar kind that IS made of crepe paper and has shoc-button eyes The witch should carry the proverbial broom stick, which should be plentifully decked cat with arched back and tail erect, cut from black cloth, should be applied to some part of the robe, or several of them may be so rscd.
 Psyche is a character that admits of pretty and becoming dressing. The gown is a simple robe of clinging white material; cheese-cloth Is always excel lent for these draperies, or cotton crepe or albatross will drape effectively. The shape of the garment might be taken from a rather full nightdress or a Mother Hubbard wrapper, emitting the yoke and running a drawing string in the neck. The gown is adjusted to the figure by ribbon, about six yards long and two inches wide, passed around the waist and crossed at the back in sus- bender fashion. Small wings cut from chiffon, tarlatan or net, and wired at the edge with bonnet wire, should be pinned or sewed to the ribbons that cross the back Psyche is usually

very fine or put through the mincing machine; then pour over: 1t one-ha1f pint absolutely boiling water Remove seeds from one pound raisins, take one pound entrants, cut one pound citron into thin narrow strips. Put together two tablespoonfuls pulverized ciuna- mon, one tablespoonful each pulverized cloves, mace, nutmeg; add one pint r1o- lasses, then the pork and water; now beat in enough four to make batter that can be easily dropped from the spoon sift two teaspoonfuls bicarbo- nate (baking) soda in with part of the flour, dredging the fruit with that part of the four which has no soda in, stir ring in the foured fruit the very last thing to prevent its dropping to the bot tom of the batter
 Grease paper and line the tins two thirds full and bake in slow oven for two hours or until the centers are firm It IS always safe to test the batter in a little patty-pan, so if too thick or too thin 1t can be easily remedied. The ex- act quantity of flour cannot always be given, as some kinds tf1icken more and others less. Pastry four should always be used whenever 1t can be secured, as 1t makes more tender cake.
 Another Recipe
 This may appeal to those who do not care for the pork as shortening: Cream one-half cupful butter, then add one-half cupful brown sugar and cream again, add one-half cupful each of emo1asses and sweet milk; beat one egg and add Sift together one and three-fourths cup full four, one-half teaspoonful soda, one teaspoonful cinnamon, one-ha1f tea spoonful each of cloves, grated nutmeg, allspice and mace. Dredge one-haif pound raisins and one-fourth pound cur rants and add the last thing. as in above recipe This makes one large cake. Steam three hours, then quickly transfer to we1l-heated oven for one hour, or omit the steaming and bake in slow oven for three hours.

RaCgy better than all the others, and once, when a thoughtless auntie made some disrespectful remarks about, her rag doll" the little mothers heart was almost broken. Surely many little girls rot SO well favored as the one just men toned, whose parents have to spend their money to buy shoes and other ne cessities instead of dolls. would appreci- ate a doll like this.
 The true spirit of both Christmas and New Year is often srnothered by the elaborate gifts that too often cannot be afforded by the giver, while if more people would confine their re-nemb-ances to a dainty box of cakes, presented with sincere desire to make a love offering, how much better would this world be, and how much closer would we be to the original meaning of this season.
 The simplest recipes for cakes and cookies can be the foundation for at tractiye decoration, formed of kernels from pecan, hickory, almonds or English walnuts. Candied citron, sliced and cooked for a few moments in hot water to make 1t tender will make foliage and stems Wintergreen and silver-coated pellets, sugar piuTns" (which are the oaraway and anise seeds sucar-coated), , marshmallows. colored sugar and ju- tube paste will transform the plainest cake mixture into holiday tidbit.

Take piece of linen. the natural color, and bind with red tape Then turn up piece at the bottom and divide into pockets as in making shoe bags. Make pockets for pins, hairpins, comb, brush, manicure set, needle and thread, etc Its special handiness consists in a tape run through the top to tie on when using. When not in use the apron can be rolled up tightly and put in a handy place. It will not make bulky bundle for even the small hand-satchel and will be glad ly appreciated by all who travel.

Psyche knot at the back of the head and l thickly powdered with cornstarch, or a white wig may be worn. If little girls hair is tucked up into similar knot she will look quaint little char-' acter in the Empire dress shown among this months patterns, and will be pre-. pared for the children's party or a flower girl at wedding.

 While visiting in a German city the writer saw a number of novel Christmas trees. Instead of fir, small cherry or similar tree was used, the branches tight ly wrapped with cotton batting. If the tree is not symmetrical, more branches are added by binding on to other limbs. Mary colored balls are used and strung from branch to branch The effect of the colored ornaments on thcI white limbs has to be seen to be appreciated, but is very effective.
 One of the prettiest trees was trimmed all in white and silver. Only white candles were used; silver bells, orna- ments and horns were hung on the branches. Much silver tinsel or ''rain" was draped all over the tree; bits of white cotton batting, or asbestos (comes loose in bulk at hardware stores and looks like batting. but is not inham- mable). represented snow on the branch es, and was sprinkled literally with diamond dust" or powdered mica The extreme wi1iteness and sparkling of all the silver decorations was a pleasant change from our usual trees, and was more -fairy-like," as one of the children said

 Then tranlping of to your own bare little room upstairs, carrying your freshly blackened boots with you, and shaved and combed, you put just mite of pomadc on your hair to keep it in order, and put on a collar that nearly cut your head of and suit of clothes that seemed somehow kind of short waisted.
