A WORD FOR THE
HOME CANDY MAKERS.

With good creamy fondant to work
with the way OF the candy maker is
comparatively easy. Fondant is the
foundation of many of the delicious
Christmas candies, and with this les.
son learned the rest is quite simple.
To make. good fondant take one pound
of granu1afed sugar, onehalf cupful
of hot water and one-half teaspoonful
of cream of tartar. Place these in a
small agate saucepan and stir the mix
ture until the sugar is melted. Then
wipe down inner side of the sauce
pan to remove any sugar adhering to
it. Now place the saucepan on the
fire and boil for seven minutes, count
ing from the time it begins to boil.
Remove from the fire, and if the syrup
will spin a short thread when tried
from fork it is cooked enough. Let
stand in the saucepan for three min
utes, then pour onto an oiled platter.
Let stand until you can bear your finger
in it. Then beat it with a fork until
white and creamy. Turn onto your
molding board and knead until smooth.
Wrap in oiled paper and put away, well
covered for twentyfour hours; it is
then ready for use.
This mixture is the base of more
than half of the candies sold by first
class candy shops. It is used both as
the center, with covering of some
thing flse, or as a covering for fruits,
nuts and other candies. When you have
mastered the fondant making thorough
~ go to good candy shop and select
the different kinds you wish to make.
Take these home and study them and
you viii soon succeed in copying them.
! TO make chocolate creams first make
the fondant and let ripen. The next
| day divide into two parts. To one~half

| ing if desired. This IS added by drop,
ping a few drops of extract on the
| fondant and then kneading thoroughly.

ner. Now shape your centers any de-
| sired shape, cover and let stand sew,

ready to dip melt the remaining fon-
dant in a double boiler and add two
squares of bitter chocolate and one
| tablespoonful of boiling water. Stir un-
til all the ingredients are melted and
mixed Then remove the entire double
boiler to the table and dip each cream
one at time. Drop on paraffin paper;

HAIR ORNAMENTS
POPULAR THIS SEASON

Many new and fascinating hair or
ments are being worn this year-each
SO different from the others in work
manship and design that no two of
them are alike. The assortment offer
ed milady of fashion is dazzling and
includes about every conceivable style
of ornament for the hair, from the
costlys tiara to the simple eoronets of
wired velvet ribbon, plain or spangled
with brilliants. And all of them are
not necessarily expensive. Very pref
ty ones may be purchased for not more
than So or 81. Many of them-fillets,
as a rule-may be manufactured at
home. There is one filet that can be
made of jet; it consists of FIVE bands
of black velvet, wired into fluctuations
equally charming arrangement is band
of solid jet, fastened at the sides. An
| and studded thickly with jet, large or
small nail heads forming the central
points of the design.
Cloth of gold and gold bullion ribbon
can be used. Those with soft colors
IN the patterns are very effective, such
as would be seen in a combination of
vieux rose and gold, with a rosette at
each side of vieux rose and velvet.
Autumn tinted wreaths may be entwin.

fine fluffy feathers arise from a jewel.
ed ribbon or velvet bow or chou. A
| coronet Of jeweled velvet, with single
(, ostrich feather curling up from it, is
very smart. Quill effects of net, COW
cred with iridescent spangles, are equal
ly stylish. The handsomest of all, per-
haps, is an ornament of real lace. Old
point, with the seallops turned up and
the whole prettily undulated, may be
/ fashioned in coronet shape.

CORRECT WAY TO
USE CREAM ON FACE.

The proper way is to use a little
cream at a time, rubbing it gently
over the surface Of the skin in a rotary
motion. This should be done slowly.
No good result comes from dabbing
soft Jumps of cream unevenly from
brow to chin.
To get all the dust out of the pores
the cream must be well rubbed into it.
This can only be done by using eight
fingers, four on each side of the face.
Especial care should be exerted
around the nose, between the eyebrows
and at the sides Of the chin. The
crevices in the skin are usually deeper
at these places than elsewhere.
After this work of rubbing in the
cream has gone on for about three
minutes it should be wiped off with a
soft cloth. The latter is important.
Women who use a stitfly starehed
towel because it is the handiest thing
have a mistaken idea Of the endurance
Of the facial skin. 1t should only be
treated with soft cotton and linen
cloths which have often been washed
and are without starch.
These take out every particle OF
cream, because they are soft enough to
rub in the pores, and they do not leave
the skin red and irritated. One should
pay especial attention to the roots OF
the hair around the face and neck
The cream gets into them, greasing the
hair.
The soft cloth should go about a halt
inch up into the hair with thorough
ness. Such rubbing catches all the bit:
of dust and SCOT that float into tht
hair as quickly as they do into the
| skin
When the cream IS well taken off i
| is wiser to add a touch Of astringent
toilet water. This removes any greasy
feeling. closes the pores, and freshen:
and invigorates the skin.
If one is going out soon, this dash o.

PRETTY TABLE LINEN
FOR THE LUNCHEON

There is nothing makes lunch
con so attractive. as pretty table linen,
and the eenterpiece is the most i'm
portant of all. It, should be approx
mately twenty four inches in diameter,
plate doilies ten inches and the smaller
size eight inches. The smaller ones
are needed for the glasses and the
bread and butter plates. Heavy, firm
linen, worked with mercerized cotton,
not too fine, should be used Great
care should be exercised in embroider-
ing it and especially in regard to the
padded, scalloped edge; if it wears
rough and shows fringe of threads
the beauty of the piece is spoiled.

the hair to keep it out now are used
at the sides. They must not go across
the back except under the psyche knot.
The correct couture adopted by the
majority has the hair brushed up
smoothly from the nape of the neck
to the knot itself There is no bullying
out nor sagging down. 1t is a clean
Grecian sweep, usually held in place
By a wide barette.

and it is expected that great good will
result from it. Besides Mr.. Reed,

Watched With Interest.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 16.-Washing-
tonians are greatly. interested in to-
days meeting between Taft and Diaz,
partly for the reason that it is the
first time such a meeting has ever
reached a serious stage, although re-
peatedly proposed during recent years.
President Roosevelt would have ar
ranged such a meeting during his last
trip to Texas, had it not been for the
fact that President Diaz, who is now
70 years old, was too ill to undertake
a Journey to the frontier.
Theoretically no president of the
United States can leave the territory
of the United States while president.
The president of Mexico actually can
not do so without a permission from
the Mexican congress-. President Cleve-
land was alleged to have left the con-
fines of the United States on several
duck-hunting and pleasure trips along
the coast, but he lever ventured be-
yond the three-mile limit unless neceS-
sary to the safe navigation of his boat.
PRESIDENT Roosevelt made two trips
