A SPARAGUS is one of the most
wholesome Of the vegetable foods.
and the best variety is the giant green
asparagus.
Asparagus should be boiled gently in
well sailed water, standing If possible
TO save the heads. The shoots tied to-
gether In one bunch should be put into
the pot so that the water win reach
about halfway up. When they have
boiled some ten or fifteen minutes they
should be laid on their side so that the
water covers all when cooked Served

butter il the full asparagus taste is
10 be brought out. this makes one OF
the real delicacies OF the table.
Connoisseurs win not eat asparagus
that has been kept long after 1t has
been picked any more than they viii
eat fish not strictly fresh. Kept in
water it may easily decay. just as the
stems Of any plant. It is far more
wholesome 10 freshen the asparagus
with running water or on ice than TO
let II stand In water.

SQUARE PARAsoLs THE LATEST
FROM PARIS.

The square parasol is one Of the very
newest examples. and as It generally
comes In imported models covered
with chiffon It is ny no means trifling
The square parasol illustrated is q
French affair OF pink satin covered
with white chiffon, which In turn, is
decorated with hand painted roses
Eight tiny punches Of ribbon roses
placed at the border add to the dis
unetion Of this charming sunshade.
BY the way, II a woman IS clever with
her embroidery needle she can buy
plain parasol Of a modish shape and
add the decorative touches herself at
small cost
Exorbitant sums are being paid for
hand painted parasols. and many girls
are reaping quite a harvest this sum-
mer by painting them for the shops
and filing individual orders. Such
paintings are in blurred soft tones on
family tinted silks, and sometimes the
designs are IN festooned effects with
little medalliOns showing quaint pow
dered and patched beauties of the old
French regimes
The daintily hand painted sunshade
to be seen among the cuts is of lilac
silk with a border Of pink roses and
violets. The alternate ribs are COW
cred with gray and violet embroidery.
and the long silk fringe is pale lilac.
This is a shepherdess parasol with the
crook on the ferule end and long
straight stick at the other end.

what to add TO this resourceful draw

Fillet Lace as Trimming Base

If you are willing TO cut them up into

pliquing it in the irregularity Of the

only the smallest amount Of this

stitching, the blue forming the base

THE heavy square mesh lace called
flllet is used as base this season
upon which to embroider designs, pref
erably of a conventional character.
SILK and erewel are used to embroider
the patterns on this foundation. Varf-
Gus applications are embroidered upon
the heavier laces, also the f1llet, and
then cut out in scroll-like designs and
applied TO the lace by an embroidery
stitch. One Of the latest whims of the
kind is linen applique or lace. the linen
being embroidered with silk floss.
Where there is profusion Of trim
ming on a gown 1t is usually of braid
or applique designs OF velvet or cloth.
Braiding never seems to lose its hold
on fashion and does not restrict. as do
some gayer and more elaborate trim
mings. the uses OF a gown to certain
special occasions.

CARE OF The HAIR.

EVERY woman should have several
combs, graded from coarse to very
fine. These combs should be used in
the order Of their fineness. Some parts
Of the hair being more tangled than
the others, the fine teeth coming in
contact with them before the tangles
are removed would invariably be Sro-
ken. Moreover. the combing would be
very unevenly done
In order to treat the hair properly
comb about eight inches long and sup
piled with teeth about one-eighth of
an inch part Is an excellent size TO
begin with. After that a very slightly
finer one should be used. followed with
the next grade, and so on TO the finest.
The best material for combs is tor
toise she'll AS this is expensive a
good rubber comb is often used as q
substitute Celluloid combs should
never be bought, for they are highly
infammable.
The rubber combs passing through
the silklike hair become so charged
with electricity that If the combine Is
done in a dark room one can see the
electric sparks ensendered by the fric-
ton. It is the electricity that causes
the short swapping sounds that one
sometimes hears when using rubber
comb.
The electricity is very beneficial. The
same effort is being also obtained by
the use of a tortoise shell comb. II

substance.
A very useful comb is the 50 called
tall comb. so named because OF the
slightly projecting pointed end piece
with which It is supplied. This serves
SIS a curler for those who have natu-
rally curly hair.

We have plated tunics over plain
skirts or plain tunics over plated
skirts, but the plating is so shallow
that it occupies no space and lies quite
fat The general tied up appearance
does not make for grace, and one has
to study ones points to get good re-
suits. Many TUNES are gathered into
a bias fold or wide band, which falls
below the knees over plain short
skirt. Sometimes the tunic affects the
form of a Russian blouse and fastens
down the left side, where 1t is trimmed
with embroidery or braiding.
When we dispense with the tunic we
can have recourse TO the crossed bodice
trimmings, which are really pretty.
They are also crossed at the back from
the shoulders. which gives an attrac-
