HOW TO HAVE AIRY KITCHEN
Problem Is Simple One and This So
luton VIII Appeal to
Housekeeper.

We have solved the problem Of how
to have an airy kitchen in summer In
this way. Remove both sashes and
tack wire netting from top to bottom
outside Of window space so the blinds
may be closed over It or windows put
in in case OF stormy weather. (Wire
netting may be found in various
widths at good hardware store). The
circulation Of air thus afforded
through the top Of the room gives
great relief to the head Of one obliged
to spend much time near the cook
stove. Remove shades entirely or roll
to the top Of windows. II the sink or
wcSk-table be placed where the morn
ing or evening sun shines in the eyes
Of the worker, blinds or curtain should
be adjusted for the time to keep out
the sun. Then at night by leaving the
outside doors open and hooking
screens the kitchen will be cool BY
morning.-Harper's Bazaar.

SOME TIPS ON CAKE MAKING
Valuable Suggestions That Will Help
Housewife Along Road to
Success.

Have the tins CREASED, the oven hot
and everything ready before begin
ming to mix the cake, as delay In get
ting 1t baking when It is once mixed
Is dangerous. Many cooks prefer lard
to butter for greasing the tins, as the
butter is apt to blacken the cake.
Beating eggs and butter makes
them light, but beating flour makes
It tough. This Is why flour should
always be added to a cake last, and
as lightly as possible. In adding the
whipped whites OF eggs, as in maca'
rooms, fold them in lightly 30 as not
to break the air cells.
When a cake cracks open as 1t rises
It is a sign that too much flour has
been used. II 1t rises in cone In the
center, the oven is too hot. In filling
cake-tins you should let the mixture
be q trifie higher on the sides than In
the middle.

NEW ENGLAND BOILED DINNER
Fine Recipe for Preparation Of This
Wholesome and Appetlzlng
Dish.

Rinse meat In cold water, tie or
Bkewer into shape. cover with cold
water and heat slowly to boiling point;
remove scum and simmer until tender,
about four hours for a piece weighing
five pounds, the time depending upon
the cut Of the meat. Remove from wa
ter, keep hot and cook potatoes and
turnips in the liquid. These should be
pared and the potatoes left whole.
The turnips should be sliced cross
wise. Cook the carrots, cabbage,
beets. etc., apart in some Of the corn
beef water, allowing one hour for the
boiling Of the pared carrots, one hour
for the washed cabbage and one hour
for new beets, four hours for old.
Serve on a very large platter. the
meat in the center, the vegetables
grouped about 1t. Garnlsh sparingly
with parsley.
But the possibilities do not end here
there are remaining besides many
other dishes adapted to these cuts
made from the heart, liver and. kid
neys OF the beef creature. When u.s.

White for Mourning.

So much white is being introduced
into mourning these days that even
first mourning hats are allowed to
show q relieving line Of white. and
many models are deliberately trimmed
with white crepe, which is very ef.
fective against the black crepe or dull
mourning silk.
One Of the quaintest models Of this
sort seen recently Is a large bonnet
shape that would look especially well
on q young face. The bonnet proper
Is Of heavy mourning silk. but Il has
a narrow turned back brim all around
Of white cFapo, and there are broad
bonnet, strings Of the white cree -

FADS THAT HAVE caught on"
APPRECIATION Of Fashion Secured by .
Number Of Striking lnno'
Vatlons.

Waists Of real lace, notably those In
Venise and Irish. are much seen. and
Irish lace coats are being revived.
Long handbags Of these materials are
much in evidence, being swung from
long cords and carried with lingerie
dresses.
Nearly all of the latest lingerie
dresses are Of pure white. That ls'
they show practically no colored EN-.
broidery. The color is usually added
in the garniture of girdle, sash, tufIic'
coat or princess slip.
Cotton ratine is having great pop
ularity for misses suits, with crystal
or ball ivory buttons for trimming. 1t
is one Of the new tube materials in de-
mand for shirtwaists.
Lace trimmed and lace covered para
soils are among the spring and summer
novelties. Lace covered fans are also
having a reign Of popularity.
There is a new red shade, known as
primrose red" 1t originated in Paris,
and seems to be a combination OF
wine, fraise, grosielle and cerise
shades. 1t is claimed that the combined
tints are more artistic than a distinct
color.

HIS ONE GREAT ADVANTAGE
Bachelor Is Free to Get Married at
Any Time II He Wants
Tol

The advantages Of being bachelor
are so many that their mere number
is confusing. While one is lolling
around in the midst Of them, so to
speak, this confusion may be disas-
trous, for It is Just in these moments
that one is most likely to fall In love
with somc one. Let US, therefore,
dwell on only one advantage as being
paramount TO all Of the others.
This advantage then, is that bach.
elor IL always free to marry II he
wants to. Think Of It! There is no
other condition like It!
For example, II you are once mar
ried, you are then not free to marry
again when you want to. To do this
you must first go to your wife and
explain the matter and get her con-
sent. You can do nothing without
her cooperation. Now, 1t is by no
means easy in these days to get an
appointment with ones wife. The OBJ
ject must FIRST be fully explained be-
forehand or she will have none Of you.
With a bachelor, however, no din.
Guilty presents itself At any moment
he has only to say to himself. Il be-
lieve I Will get married." and the
thing il as good as done.
Not that he Is compelled to avail
himself Of the opportunity. OF course

STORMS Tb PREDICT SELVES
Wireless stations To- Bs Used to Make
Tempgsts Send Their Own
Warning Ahead.

Storm centers move usually In an
esterly or northeasterly direction.
Hence the prediction OF storms on tho
Atlantic coast is possible. since most
Of them come from the Mississippi
valley. Soma come up the coast from
the Caribbean sea, but even, In this
case we have no warning.
But western Europe is less fortu-
late. It's tempests come from the At
iRntic. and with little warning. Euro-
pean weather men have made as much
as possible study OF the paths OF
American storms across the Atlantic
and are sometimes accurate in pre-
dieting the time Of their arrival; the
same has been done with storms Uom-
ing up from the South Atlantic.
But 1t often happens that storms vary
either their route or the rate Of move
ment. so that predicting cyclones on
the coast OF western Europe is more
or less guesswork.
AS possible help in this respect
Director Andre OF the Lyons observa-
tory Is making a deep study Of the
galvanometer records of various wire
less telegraph stations.
He has found that the antennae are
sensitive to any stray electric currents
as well as to messages, and he hopes
to discover way to make the storms
telegraph their own warning ahead OF
their arrival.
Every storm is accompanied by cleo
trical disturbances, and already N.
Andre has accumulated a mass OF evi-
dence to show that each storm in this
way gives warning Just how to read
this evidence is the problem to which
he is devoting himself.

Use Of BRIGHT CoIors.

Though gray Is again to be In great
favor, yet there are to be some lovely
bright colors seen in dress this SEE
SON, and our modistes are unlikely to
forget that the success Of all such
bright colors lies in the moderation
with which they are used.
At a sensational dress show last
week the draped skirt and the bunch
ed pannier were features OF many OF
the models, and the modified color
touch proved once more how telling 1t
is. For instance, a fawn colored, en-
broidered tussore coat and skirt had q
Chinese red collar, which gave 1t q
cachet. From this exhibition We learn
ed that black patent leather Is again
IN favor for belts, and that oriental
embroidery il in greater demand than
ever.

II don't want you to think me I'M

passed slowly out of the door into the
friendly darkness OF the clubhouse

at the far end, he observed that some

for art as a profitable profession?
Yes, American art pays.

It is now settled that a private Dan

appointed to investigate the request

concession will encounter an adverse

DEFINES A sARpINE.

LONDON, May 11.-After a legal
battle rivaling the antitrust suits in
the American courts, Gulldhall court
has decided that a sardine Is any
small fish packed in oil. The action
took the form of a summons under the
merchandise marks act, at the In
stance of a firm of French sardine
packers, against a Newcastle fishing
company for falsely labelling sprats as
sardines. 1t was proved to the salts
faction of the court that the sardine
of science is the immature pilchard,
but it was held that the name sardine
has been applied 30 long to any small
fish packed in a certain manner that
no action could be taken against the
Newcastle packers. Eminent counsel
were engaged on both sides, and eX-
perts ranging from famous caterers to
the fish curator of the British Museum
were summoned to give testimony.
The latest outbreak against the be-
neVolent government Of Rhodesia by
the British South Africa Company
takes the form of a revolt against the
enforcement of an ordinance promul
