Uses for Ribbon.

Grosgrain ribbon of rich quality and
heavy weave plays an important part in
personal decoration these days. 1t has
been used for some time with gold and
jeweled slides as watch fobs, but is now
being put to many other uses.
A woman in mourning who cannot af-
ford to buy herself a new black enamel
or gun metal watch may wear her gold
one, provided the chain is somber This
is often of onyx beads twisted into a
rope. but more economical is long chain
of grosgrain ribbon with slides and hook
of onyx or dull Jet.
The width of these ribbon guards varies
from half an inch to an inch and half
the three-quarters width being suitable
Tor older women.
The ribbon watch guard is no longer
popular for mourning only. They are
smart just now to hold watch or lorgnette
worn with jeveled or enamel slides at
intervals through its length. with hook
slides are set in rhinestoncs, again in
turquoise or semi-precious stones, occa
stonally in finely chased gold.
Besides being new and fashionable such
guard Is serviceable and much better
form for ordinary daily wear than jewell

ones set with amethysts, lapis or Jade

Quite new are pins and brooches in
which grosgrain ribbon is utilized to
bring out settings of brilliants. Some of
these are In bowknot or true love knot

The rhubarb is stewed, but not to shreds.
Heavily sweeten, fill and put it over the
top of the shortcake and serve with
whipped cream. 1t is a very good spring

Among other welcome things in the
spring market is the coming of the first
fresh asparagus. 1t is from the south,

Orchid Salad.

A real novelty in market this spring is
the orchid salad. 1t is not only very good
to eat, but is very decorative as well. 1t lie
pink on the edges, shading down to deli
cate green and white in the center. 1t
does not head up closely, like the other
salads, and for that reason is sold by the
quart. at 50 cents. 1t may be served with
French dressing OF it may be dipped leaf
by leaf into heavy mayonnaise. The lit
tie legend that goes with it is that it is
a native of Italy, where it grows on a
special tract OF land that produces won
derful coioring. 1t is INDUCED in there
only by the royal family. However, the
man who is raising it here has, after
great outlay of labor and cash, struck
the right coordination of soil for it's prop
er growth. and the city epicures may now
glory in a new dish.

the mayor and talk the matter over

movement for such an institution can
be started in this city"
Il saw the editorial in THE TIMES on

is an excellent. one. There is nothing
that would make more of a hit with
the people.
Il do not believe that 1T would hurt
the business of the average grocer for
the reason that the farmer who came
to town and disposed of his vegetables
at the city market would spend the
money he made in the grocery stores
buying other provisions"
Mr.. Mott thinks that a location

suggests that stock company be or

REFUSE TO FIX DATE
FOR CITY ELECTION
West Hammond Obstruc-
tionists Succeed in De-
laying Matters.

By its action in referring the matter
of fixing the date for the first city
election in West Hammond to the com
mittee the old village board began it's
policy to delay the election of city off,
cials.
In spite of the fact that by an over
whelming majority the people of West
Hammond voted to make the village a
city the village board has adopted OBJ
structionist measures that are likely to
delay the city plan indefinitely.
The matter came up at the meeting
of the board last night but no action
was taken. There was not the slight
est reason for referring the question OF
selecting a date to a committee but
this was done.
Now the West Hammond Taxpayers
Protective League proposes to call a
meeting and take the necessary legal
steps to prevent any rurther delay.
Nothing could better indicate the
selfish and pernicious influences tha.
are at work in West Hammond and
that have long prevented the growth
of the village into a strong health

The question of receiving bids or
electric lighting did not come up las
night but will come up on August |
when the bids from the various light
ing companies will be received an,
opened.
Other matters of a routine nature
came up for consideration and wer,
disposed of.
