planning by. making lace insertion or fancy stitches connect the two pieces, or by frankly making the division wide and putting a plain or a>braided piece underneath the opening and connecting the edges with straps. Careful Planning Means Success
 Understand that I am not counseling any changes in the constructive part of the pattern, beyond necessary fitting changes, and a certain amount of fitting must always be necessary, since all women have not figures cast in the same mold If you buy both pattern and material with their relation to each other in mind (the ideal combination for a new .gown), no further planning is needed; but if you want to remodel a dress, or have two remnants to com bine, you may build, on suitable pat tern, a gown that will be satisfactory if you carefully plan the disposition of the materials at hand.

fragrant and delicious fit for the gods"
 Such a recipe and description makes one feel that hereafter her johnny-cake shall be made after mammy's recipe, and like hers, baked on a board It IS not alone the entertainer to whom this meth cd of cookery comments itself; the housewife can give to the daily steak or chop most appetizing appearance by serving 1t planked; it will be found far preferable to the so-called broiled meats cooked in the gas range, preserving to the full flavor and nutrition.
 To possess a perfect flavor, broiled meats ought to be cooked over a low, clear fire of hard wood-but who in the cities these days burns ood?-and gas broiled meats are poor substitute, but in planlIing, the housewife has an easy method of cooking, and one that will give to meat the sweet flavor of meat cooked over a wood fire.
 The Plank

and place in well-greased broiler. Broil about ten minutes over a clear hrc, watching carefully to prevent burning. and turning broiler so that all parts may be equally brown. When done, remove to a hot platter and serve on toast. Birds being very apt to burn before the cooking is finished, better way per haps is to season and brush with butter as directed. put into dripping pan, skin side up, and bake about fifteen minutes in hot oven; then if not sufficiently brown, finish the cooking in a broiler or under the oven light in a gas range
 To smother quail. season with salt and pepper, put into dripping pan, skin side up, brush with melted butter, dredgc with four, add little boiling water and put into very hot oven After about ten minutes reduce the heat, haste every five minutes until done, which will re- quire about forty minutes Turn as needed to brown all over. Serve on toast moistened with the liquid in the pan. Potted squab
 Squabs arc procurable at any season of the year and they may be roasted, broiled or smothered as directed for quail. Another favorite way is "potted" The birds are left whole, stuffed and then Drowned in little butter, turning as needed Then add a little water. cover closely and simmer until done When done, which will require about an hour, thicken liquid, pour over toast and serve bird on each slice

Drop by large spoonfuls on a buttered pan. leaving plenty of room between them for spreading. Bake twenty-five minutes in steady oven If the oven is too hot, the puffs will brown before they have sufficiently risen. When cold, cut round from the top of each puff, i'll with sweet cned whipped cream or thick, nicely favored custard, then replace the top. They may be kept for several days, ii filled as needed. Boaeless Birds
 One of my choicest recipes with which have surprised and pleased many friends is homeless birds" Take pork and have them frenched, that is, cut in round slices. Make a bread dressing as for poultry, and placing a portion between two slices of the tenderloin hold them together with woodens toothpicks- Season with salt and pepper, fixing as many as are needed for. thd family. Lay piece of salt pork over each side and bake a rich brown. They will look very much like squads and havcs the favor of game. After each is served the toothpicks can be re- moved. This is a novel and pleasing dish

onions. Peel and slightly parboil, then remove the heart of each onion and fill the vacancy with equal parts of moist ened bread-crumbs and chopped cold beef or chicken, season well and i'll as full as possible. Arrange in a well-but tered baking dish, and pour stock over them; cover the dish and bake in mod crate oven one hour. If you lack stock place a piece of butter on top of each onion and haste frequently with hot water.
 When Madame of the Twentieth Century wishes to serve something novel at company luncheon or breakfast she orders that something planked. It may be steak or fish of some sort, "broilers," ," chops, or If the function be Lenten one, perhaps eggs will be used. The lat ter lend themselves to this method of cooking most graciously, and they make a tempting appearance.
 Somehow a planl<ed dish breathes of the wild life that brings men near to Natures heart; 1t speaks of primitive existence when game was killed and fish were caught, not for pastimc. but to sup ply life's necessities, and 1t is this very primitiveness of the scorched, food-laden

lake trout, halibut, or any large, white fieshed fish are equally good. For our demonstration lesson we will take lake trout.
 Scale and cut it open the entire length down the middle ;xr with a very sharp knife loosen the backbone until you can take hold of 1t at the neck and draw 1t out. Wipe the fish with damp cloth and then pat 1t with dry. one, brush 1t on both sides with melted butter, sea soning with pepper, salt and lemon juice. Set the plank in the oven until 1t is heated through, then fasten the fish to 1t, skin side up, with the clips or tack5.
 Place the plank on the upper grate, in a very hot oven, and let the fish cook for about ten minutes Then carefully turn 1t and cook for about twenty min utes longer, basting freRently with a mixture of one-third of a atupful of but ter, tablespoonful of lemon juice and a dash of cayenne. Send to the table gar- cups holding savory chopped pickle. Planked Steak
 Another culinary delight is planked steak The steak ought to be s1rloin "a porter-house is not fat enough and cut about two inches thick. Rub 1t over with lemon juice and butter, tack 1t to the heated board and place in a very hot oven After leaving ten or twelve minutes, draw the tacks, turn, and tack 1t again in place, returning to the oven for another ten minutes cook ing. This can be garnished with rice or potato. cakes, latticed potatoes, little string beans or peas. Lamb or mutton chops can be cooked in the same way as the steak, an added savoriness being given by basting them quite often while cooking with a well-seasoned tomato sauce.
 Packing meats to the board Is not really necessary when the cooking takes place in an oven, but it is pleasantly re miniscent of the days when the board was propped before the open fire and the food had to be tackled to keep it from slipping of.
 Now for our boHne bonche-poached eggs. Prepare the necessary amount of well-seasoned, creamy mashed potatoes With a. pastry bag and tube cover the board with wreaths of the potato puree Brush with melted butter. make slight

board that satisfies Madame's desire for novelty with which to surprise her guests and appeal to their gustatory sense, For there is something very zest- ful, if almost ludicrous, in the appear ancc of the scorched plank, so sharply accentuated in its contradistinction to the immediately laid table aglitter with up-to-date table furnishings
 An Indian Practice
 While no one seems to know positive ly just where or by whom this method of cooking was first practised, 1t Is gen orally ascribed to the Indians. In an old history of Virginia, allusion is made to the custom as followed. by the ab- origines.. Probably the hunter, the fish crnian, the camper living in the wilder ness copied the method from their In- dian guides and handed it down from generation to generation, until to-day 1t IS recognized as the most notably per feet method for cooking fish and cer- tain cuts of meat
 Successive generations of Southern colored '-manimies" always cooked their corn-bread on plank before the fire. and it is reasonable to suppose they got the idea from the red man.
 ''Johnny-cake''
 A well-known writer on things domes- tic, Virginian by birth, has this to say ancnt her mammy's johnny-cake: There never was, and there never will be this side of the millennium, such johnny y-cake as my old mammy-rest her dear white soul-used to bake in front of her open wood fire. She measured a generous quart of meal into her wooden tray and sifted with 1t a teaspoonful each of salt and soda Then she wet 1t with cupful of buttermilk and one of sweet milk. Lastly went in a tablespoonful of melted butter. The dough was rolled out half an inch thick and spread smoothly upon a sweet, clean board, which stood in the sun most of the time when 1t was not in use. This was propped up in front of the red coals at such an angle that 1t got the glow of the fire, yet could not slide off, and pasted with butter every other minute until 1t was brown and crisp and

less time. They areSuseful as well as ornamental, and they have the added value of novelty The rosebud apron Is as dainty a gift as one could wish, and 1t IS not, as one would imagine ar first glance, complicated affair, for the blocks are not made separately; the lace is simply stitched son' the material diagonally through the lines of flowers The material Is then cut, turned back a seam and stitched agairi The pocket for thimble and thread is made of stwo medallions whipped together along the lower edges, and ornamented with needle-cushion of pink satin ribbon. made to simulate. rose It was made of a scrap of dirnity, 20 inches long and IZH inches wide.
 A garment may always 'be cut ac- cording to the cloth" and for that reason dimensions are not necessary. Frequently the center of an apron may be figured, and the ruffle solid or vice versa. A scrap of lowered organdy, with a circular ruffle, made by cutting paper pattern and piecing it with squares of pink and blue and buff lawn, put to- gether with fagoting or narrow lace, comes within the province of almost "any old scrap-bag," and the result ia not to be laughed at, but rather to be copied.
 "Scrap-Bag Gifts
 Indeed, any number of charming articles may be fashioned from Sum- mer remnants. A sofa cushion offers an excellent illustration of what may be done with scraps" It may be made of a remnant of white organdy left from a party dress, and lined after bunch of flowers cut from two small cretonp~ scraps have been appliqued, with bun tonhole stitches of pink silkotine, witk another remnant of white lawn. The 31z-inch-wide ruffle was stitched with pink, and pink satin ribbon serves to fasten 1t.
 A Charming Negligee
 Nothing you can buy for the same amount will be as attractive as a negligee. There is no pattern required for it. It is made by folding, seivage to selvage, yard and I6 inches of pink crepon, so that one length measures 28 inches. In the center of the fold circle is cut for the neck The long end is split in two, the ends pointed, and the neck turned back to form revers

sheet of batting into strips two or three inches wide, clip half way up, and then pull carefully apart, usiI-.g the inside for the outside. The tinsel fringe IS made by >unraveling silver cord. These home made ornaments will be found most satisfactory, and far less expensive than those shown in the shops.
 A Present for Baby
 A darling rattle for a baby is made by covering the pasteboard foundation of bolt of baby ribbon with two thick nesses of batting sprinkled with sachet. One I saw recently had a Santa Claus seal on one side and a stork on the other. A strip of batting was put around 1t, and glued securely to this was loop of ribbon. Then a band of ribbon, to which were tackled three silver bells, was put on. The stork flew" from a scrap of kimono cloth, and was pasted to a stiff white paper, before the figure was cut out.
 A Magazine Case
 A magazine case is easily made, re- quiring only careful cutting and pasting. It Is a gift that will find a welcome in any well-kept library. If you have a small boy in the family, delight his heart by allowing him to make one or more for some grown-up friend. One I have in mind is made of two sheets of gray cardboard. It is held together with three bows of red satin ribbon, and or namented with an artistic head cut from the cover page of magazine. In making these cases, have the cardboard an inch longer and broader than the magazine for which it Is intended.
 The match scratcher is another gift boy will take pleasure in making. Farmer John was cut from familiar advertisement. His hat was cut care fully from his head, and pasted on the wrong side of a sheet of black sand paper. It was then cut out and pasted, rough side up, in its proper place. In one corner of the red cardboard mount, which is 1o1z x8 81z inches, is fastened a pasteboard box, ornamented with a bunch of dried grass. The match is caught with stitch of red thread. The lettering-"This is where you strike your = Farmer John l"-is done in water-color.
 Other Gifts
 Other gifts call for little money and
