" time for the next year I will be re-
minded of the lost s11 whenever the
fancy seizes me to plunge sartorially.
Dick is not close listed; still he's very
human. and such an opportunity to
bring a sinner to Il second repentance
will hardly be thrown away.
Now what do you say to this stuffed
pineapple recipe for a hot weather des-
sertf Last Sunday, which was a rec
ord breaker In the weather line, found
US enjoying the cooling dainty. All
you have to do is to cut the top neatly
from the pine, as our English cousins
call 1t. and keep the green sprouted
top for a future did" Then the work
Of scooping out the pulp of the pine
apple begins until nothing Is left but
the shell. This Is filed with cold wa
ter until the pulp Is ready to be re-
turned to It. This pulp is sweetened
and to 1t is added the Juice Of two
oranges and a quarter of a pound of
maraschino cherries. Just before serv-
ing time fill the pineapple shell with
the mixture and put on the lid ant
send to the table. AS our nasturtiuns
are particularly thriving and beautiful
this season, l used them as a decora-
ton around the stuffed pineapple, and
the green leaves and bright flowers
made an effective setting for the des-
sert. 1t was both cool to look upon
and a palate ticker, I tell you, for the
jaded summer appetite.
Here's a cleaning tip for you which
may come in useful. You know how
easily the white guimpe of lingerie or
lace becomes solled and what a bother
1t is to put In a fresh one. Well, n
day l was in a hurry to meet an en-
gagement and a frock u determined
upon to wear had q very bedraggled
guimpe In II. A happy thought came
into my m1nd-why not clean it with
magnesia? So no sooner thought than
a big lump of the magnesia was In
my hand, being manipulated very
strenuously oyer the guimpe. After
the first application all the soil disap-
peared, and with a good shake the pow
der fell out Of the ace and my guimpe
was as fresh as the most exquisite
taste could desire.
l suppose you always use glove snap
pers for inserting these guimpes2 1t
Is such q simple matter to sew several
Of the snaps on the dress waist where
the guimpe goes in and the CORE
spending half of the strap on the
yoke itself ready to be snapped into
position. Lots OF women, though, still
sew their guimpes In and know moth
ing whatever about the easiest way.
You asked me about the new fchusf
Well, it's hard to keep away from the
topic OF neckwear, and yet it is hard
to write about the new things one sees
in the shops. for they defy description.
The successful fchu first and foremost
must be fine in material.
1t may be untrimmed. consummate-
ly simple, but ever treated in coarse
and cheap fabrics.
Fichus Of fine point d'esprit bordered
by plated frills of the point d'esprit
about the edges are charming, and the
softness Of the net gives an added
touch of daintiness. These lchus re-
quire draping. and both the graceful
draping and the effective wearing of
these old fashioned affairs are ticklish
matters, to be approached In a spirit
Of serious artistic understanding and
effort. On simple foulard or lingerie
frocks a fchu is most effective and
brings a last years creation quite up
to date.
1t Is perfectly impossible to write
any more in this scorching heat, for
there is nothing left but a bone and a
hank Of hair of MABEL.
