French LAYER Cake.

Take eight eggs, half pound of su-
gar, half pound Of flour, a quarter
pound of melted butter, a spoonful of
vanilla extract. Beat the eggs with
the sugar, heating near mild fire
until the mixture is a little warmer
than blood heat. They may be heat
ed. in pan of warm water or on the
back Of the range. When well warmed
remove from heat, continuing to beat
until they are quite cold. This makes
the cake short and tender Add the
-four with wooden spoon, then the
butter. Put into buttered mold and
bake in moderate oven for Is min
utes. Cut into three layers with a
sharp knife. Fill with mocha, choco-
late, caramel, vanilla or any other
cream.

NEW MATERIALS FOR DRESS
Designers Have Done Well This Sea
son In the Production of Attrac-
tive Goods.

There is a new material called We
lour de laine in mixed suiting almost
like camel's hair. This is particu-
larly effective, striped diagonally with
white. Another variation is in heav-
Ter weave in tan, light blue or gray,
and is intended for evening coats. The
prices for these fabrics range between
$3.50 and SO a yard.
Somewhat on the same order is a
chenille corduroy, which had its or
igin in England. 1t has a heavily
raised cord and is two toned, the sur
face showing many white hairs. This
comes in a heavier or lighter weight,
to be used for coats or suits, and is
priced at So yard.
The perennial blue serges are quite
surprising this year. One of the pref
test has a border of little square
blocks of color, royal blue, cerise, tan
or white; another has border Of open
squares, something like last seasons
linen suitings.

To test nutmegs, pick them with a
pin. Oil will instantly spread around
the puncture if they are good.
For an appetizing salad mince a
couple of green peppers, mix them
with three tablespoonfuls of chopped
chives and serve on white lettuce
leaves with French dressing.
Shredded red cabbage and white
celery cut fine make a very popular
salad. Sprinkle the top of the salad
with tablespoonful of minced onion
and dress with oil and vinegar
When cooking catchup, jelly, ETC.,
try putting few marbles in the ket-
tie to prevent burning. The heat will
keep the marbles rolling and thus pre-
vent the catchup, etc, from sticking
to the kettle.
When roasting fowl in a gas stove
put three tablespoonfuls of water into
the meat tin at the bottom of the
stove. You will find the steam will
make the bird tender, and obviate
the necessity for continually bast-
ing it.
To fill preserving jars without
splashing and spilling the preserves
over them, use gravy boat. 1t is
easily dipped into the hot kettle Of
fruit by means of the handle and the
long mouth fits into jars of almost
any size and thus prevents splitting

the discussion, the new velvet must
be enthusiastically acclaimed.
This material has changed much
since the old days. The light. supple,
clinging fabric of today has little in
common with the stiff velvet of yes
teryear, and though chiffon velvet of
the less expensive qualities has way
of looking mussy and shabby, it un-
questionably is graceful, while the
new velvets of the finest quality are
ideal fabrics.
One-piece frocks or bodice and
skirt frocks of velvet, simply made
and intended for street wear, under
| topcoats, have been turned out by
| some Of the most famous of the Pari-
sian designers and have been copied
more or less successfully by New
York manufacturers, not only in vel
vet, but in velveteen, which material,
! by the way, deserves a word of COM
! mendation, since it is offered in excel
lent quality and charming colorings.
One of the most chic of the little
French frocks Of this class was also

a bronze green, very simply trimmed
in satin cords and buttons. More ex-
| pensive frocks on similar lines, but
with touches of fur and handsome
lace at the neck and guimpe, are ex-
ceedingly good-looking for daytime
wear under a fur coat or coat Of
the frock material.
The attached peplum is shown in
many of the semi-dressy models of
velvet, and we show good-looking
model of this type One is of old
green velvet, trimmed with chinchilla.
The chinchilla forms a high rundown
collar and vest, and trims the sleeves.
! The skirt is made with tunic, which
hangs in draped folds at the front.
Another attractive model is made
of taupe velvet, trimmed with skunk.
At the front there is a crossed white
satin vest, trimmed with passemen-

edged with skunk

KNITTED SUITS ALWAYS GOOD
Probably the Most Practical and Com
Portable Garment That Child
Can Wear.

There is a slight tendency in the dl-
rection of oYerdressing children just
now. Every now and then this ten
dency arises, only to be annihilated
by the fact that there are few women
so silly that they will overdress their
children, whatever they may do them
selves.
Real torture may be inflicted on
sensitive child by dressing her in out
of date and clumsy garments when all
her school fellows are daintily clothed.
But what are wanted are not up-to-
date things, but simple and pretty
things.
The rise of the knitted coat for
adults has led directly to the use of
knitted suits for children. They are
very comfortable, very warm, and as
durable as anything can be that is sub
mitted TO the extreme chances of a
child's day. For very small boys lit
tie Knockers and Jerseys of knitted
wool are the most practical of gar
ments, especially for fat little boys,
who will come through any non-elas-
tic fabric much quicker than they will
come through knitted wool.

that he was lonely, began to make her
self agreeable"
You are Director Russelps little
boy, aren't you?" she asked, with
patTOnizing sweetness.
Master Russell resented this intru-
sion on his dignity, but his courtly
manners were unruf1ed. yes,
madam" he replied, with an elabor-
ate bow.
Where were you born?"
IN France, madam"-slightly more
frigid
What part?" continued the lady,
feeling the conversation well started.

Revival of Braid.

The revival of braid is a great fac
tor in the evolution of this years
frocks. Not only does it add a de-
sirable note of solidity and smartness
so essential to winter clothes, but, fur
Their. it is strongly suggestive of hard
.gearing properties. Braid, again-in
very fine, silky makes-is admirable
as a trimming for the union bodice Of

WILL NOT PAY
CLERKS EXPENSES

Five residents of Valdez who went
surely on the bond Of E. II. Mack, who
was appointed clerk of the district
court in March. 1909, have been noti-
fed by Marshal Love that they are
liable for sl96. 05, which Mr.. Mack was
required to repay the marshal but was
unable to do so.
Marshal Love states that Mir. Mack
presented bill for 1882. 10 for travelling
expenses from Valdez to Fairbanks.
The money was paid by the marshal 5
Office, but later disallowed 10y the de-
partment of justice on the ground that
Mack was not clerk until he took the
oath Of office, which he did not do
until he reached Fairbanks.
Mack paid back $5G.45, but said he
was unable to raise the balance OF
$l96.05 He thinks the second bond,
the company bond, which he gave is
the one that is liable.
The bondsmen in Valdez, who include
Chas. G. Wulf, John Lyons, E. E,
Richie and Edmund Smith, believe
that Marshal Love is personally liable,
as he paid Mack's expenses without
authority and that the government
was at fault in not collecting the money
from Mack when he had it.-Valdez
