Hamburg Steak With Tomato Sauce.

Hamburg Steak with Iomato oauce.
Never buy your Hamburg steak al
ready chopped, no matter how fresn
and enticing it may look. Too often
the most inferior grades Of meat are
used and then sprinkled with a pre-
servative to give them a fresh ap-
pearance. Get a piece Of lean meat
from the round, not necessarily the
tenderest portion, and have the
butcher put it through the grinder
while you are there. If you like on
ions with the steak chop one fine
and add. Season with salt and pep
per, shape. into small, round, nat
cakes and having your frying pan
Kissing hot and just lightly creased,
with a bit of suet, lay in the cakes.
In ten seconds turn and in ten
seconds more repeat. This gives a
nice brown crust on each side Of the
cakes and it will not be necessary to
turn so often. Cook five minutes If
desired rare; a little longer for we'll
done.
Serve with tomato sauce. Melt a
tablespoonful Of butter in a saucepan,
add a tablespoonful flour, a h~alf-tea-
spoonful salt and a dash Of pepper.
AS Boon as blended, pour in little by
little one cupful strained tomato with
a few drops onion juice, and cook
three or four minutes and pour round
the meat.-New York Telegram.

but xe3feness makes dividing the at

!, If one person is kept constantly in
conversation by one neighbor at a
dinner it means that he or she on
the other side sits much Of the time
with no one to talk to, for the guest
farther on is certainly giving some
time to the person on his or her other
side.-New York Telegram.

Women Who Listen Carefully.

The person who a talk entertain
ingly and listen attentively Is the best
type Of guest at social gatherings, for
she who chatters necessarily is al
most more undesirable than one who
Is too uuiet-for the latter gives OPP
portunity for other persons to express
themselves, while the former to say
even one word is often a struggle.
The balance between these ey-
tremes is the art of stimulating a
temporary companion to conversation,
and at no place is it more important
to adopt the correct attitude than at
q dinner. More than one man has
been obliged to talk so much when
sitting beside a quiet woman that he
has not eaten enough. Such conduct
on the part Of a woman is decidedly
inconsiderate, for If she is not willing
to add her quota to the evenings en-
t%ertainment she should stay at home.
At dinners and also at formal
luncheons it is a good idea to watch
the plates of neighbors, and If one
person has been talking so much as
to have fallen behind in the course it
is tactful to take conversation into
ones own hands, giving the other a
chance to listen and at the same time
to eat.
1t is not good form to monopol1ze
the attention Of one neighbor to such
an extent as to prevent him or her
from talking with the person on the
other side. Often it is a temptation

Henry VIII.

It was in the year 1909 that King
Henry VIII. assembled the English
throne. He was the second of the
Tudor monarchs and the second son
of King Henry VII. and Elizabeth
of York, and thus united the rival
claims Of the houses of Lancaster and
York. During the first years Of his
reign" says Chambers, "Ienry held
a place in the hearts of his people
such as no English monarch before
or since has ever held. This afec-
tionate admiration, which with
strangely little diminution he re-
tanned to the last, was due to the
fact that of all England's kings he
was the most intensely English"

the American" cravat, produced i'll
honor of Theodore Roosevelt, will
doubtless have vogue. This cravat
has the initials ct. R." woven in the
goods in monogram effect, usually in
white on a blue ground.
Among the newest and best scarfs
for the new season will be the I'm

ends show pointed aprons Of gradu-

on account of the close-front collars,
but spreading out to broad shape.
Naturally, there will be a wide de-

ties.
The best neckwear houses will show
knit motor scarfs; both for motoring
and dress wear. These are in plain
and fancy knit designs and in a wide
variety of color effects; some showing
borders and fringed ends.
Hosiery.
To be absolutely correct gentlemen
will wear hosiery of very subdued
color combinations or quiet plain
colors. Navy, brown and gray are
best, although subdued shades of the
brighter colors are permissible-pale
blue, lavender, pink and hello Some
very attractive numbers are out show

Quiet embroidered designs on plain col
orS will be worn considerably. Black
silk hose is always in good taste.

The New Shirts.
The latest shifting weaves for Fall

effects in plains and fancies; corded
weaves, smooth weaves and raised de-
signs The fabrics are cambrics in
both striped and figured effects; en-
broidered batistes in stripes and fig
ures; brooches and zephyrs, besides a
wide variety of Scotch madrases.
Along with these are shown some
very beautiful French silk and wool
stripes in light weight, and a variety
of French fannels. These goods are
shown in plaids and stripes and are
very artistic in their designing and
the colors are perfectly harmonious.
For the exclusive there are shirtings

oxford cloths in plain blue, pink,

to the cuff button, two pearl buttons
are placed in each corner to catch it

it has a sporting effect which is rather
striking without being over-conspio-

but in this case thinner material is
used in place of the oxford cloth
which is too heavy to pleat.

beautiful colorings of the shirtings for
Fall and Winter
For full dress wear, piques are
shown in a variety of patterns and are
the correct things. Pleated bosoms
made UP in oval shapes. The French
turn-back cuffs are liked best.
Collars.
There are no doubt about the pop
ularity of the turnover collar and it
will be the dominating style for Fall.
A favorite collar, however, has the
round pointed wing, and this one will
likely run second best in the demand.
Ties.
The gentleman of fashion will have
nothing to complain of as far as va
riety of beautiful materials is con-
cerned this season. The silks are UNI
usually rich and harmonious in their
colorings and of fine texture, but, as a
rule, quiet and elegant in their design
ing.
A one-color rep silk which has been
so much the favorite with the best
dressers is out for the new season in
silk and satin weaves, and new fab
ric with a medium cord and a particu-
larly lustrous finish is shown in a va
riety of colors. Poplin weaves OF
course will be fashionable.
Cords are coming in strong and
are out in some very rich tints which
are more beautiful than anything
heretofore shown
In fabrics which show more con
spicuous designing, college stripes are
among the latest and will be worr
by men who admire color. The more
expensive ties have a variety of Per.
sian effects among them which are
very attractive.
