BLACK EVENING GOWNS.

Worth shows a decided preference
for the black gown for evening wear.
The bodices are usually relieved by
white lace or net.
The French are fond of using flesh
colored tulle in these gowns. At a dis
lance this has the startling effect Of
an exaggerated decolletage. This is a
decidedly becoming feature, however.
The family flushed tulle is much softer
against the neck and arms than the
white or cream tones.
The skirt is perfectly plain as a rule.
It depends entirely upo the beauty of
the material. stunning model for a
dinner gown was of black panne vel
vet. 1t had a Dutch neck instead of
a decided decolletage.
The skirt had a long sweeping train.
Over this a diagonal tunic, bordered by
fringe, hung in graceful folds. The
waist line was high. Above. a wide
bib of the velvet bordered by venetian
lace extended upon a bodice Of black

Two cups Porto Rico molasses, 2-3
cup sugar, 8 tablespoons butter, 1

is best for candy making. If one has
no copper kettle granite kettle is best
for sugar candies.
Put the butter into the kettle, place
kettle owe the fire. and When the but
ter is melted add the molasses and
sugar. Stir until the sugar is dis
solved. During the first part of the
boiling stirring is unnecessary, but
when the candy is nearly cooked it
should be stirred constantly. Boil I'M
til the mixture becomes brittle when
tried in cold water. Just before TAX

vinegar. Pour the candy into a we'll
buttered pan, and when it is cool
enough to handle pull it until it is
porous and light-colored, allowing it
to come into contact with the tips of

THE D%INING-R0OM TABLE.

R~enovating the dining-room table Is
sometimes one of the most difficult
tasks to accomplish. There are nu-
nervous accidents that are bound to
happen to this object In question,
more so even than I'M other piece Of
furniture In the house.
Consequently, it Is well to know just
what to have on hand. Nothing looks
worse than a table set for luncheon
with doilies and centrepieces, and to
have showing In between the large
white spots caused by heat or alcohol.
The varnish is often taken complete
ly from the wood, and in some cases
the table must be sent to a profess
sional for repair. But In man cases
the simple home devices will be found
to be satisfactory.
If not deep heat stains may be re-
moved by rubbing with hot milk, while
kerosene oil or turpentine has often
been found satisfactory in removing
stains of this kind.
Sweet oil or linseed oil will remove
alcohol stains If applied at once. If
dry rub the kerosene or with oil and
alcohol mixed.

BY II SALMON.

Did you ever go fishing? DID you
ever catch a salmon? l doubt it. It
takes a mighty sharp fisherman to
catch me.
1 am called "the king of the fresh
water fish," I am the most valuable
and delicate OF all fish. My flavor Is
excellent and 1 have few troublesome
bones.
My home is in the sea. But in the
autumn of the year I cave 1t and
travel to the river. where 1 was born.
There I deposit eggs in the shallow
creeks. The eggs remain there until
the next spring. Then they are
Matched into baby salmons.
These children remain for two years
in the river. Then in the third
spring they seek the cool waters Of
the sea-
Often, on my journey FROM the sea
to my birthplace. I come to roaring
waterfalls. To reach the top of these
is hard and dangerous. But I am
never afraid. 1 curl my body SO that
my tail almost reaches my mouth
Then I give an upward spring. Some
times 1 fail, but II 1 do I try again.
Did you ever see a picture of a SAL
mon leap?"
Next time you have salmon for din
ner tell your mama and papa all
that you know about me.

Chocolate Fudge.

Dead Miss Doom:
Please be kind enough to publish in The
Evening Star a recipe for chocolate fudge.
HONKY CONKY.
Fudge can be made with either
granulated or light brown sugar. The
latter gives 1t a molasses flavor, which
many people find agreeable. The in
gradients are: Two cups of sugar. one
half cup of milk or cream, two squares
of unsweetened chocolate and butter
about the size of a walnut. Pour the
sugar into a saucepan. add the milk,
stirring until the sugar is dissolved.
Then add the chocolate. cut into small
pieces, and let 1t come to a boil, stir
ring to prevent Its sticking to the pan.
When the mixture forms a soft ball
when dropped in cold water. remove 1t
from the stove, adding the butter
about a minute before removing it.
Stir until the mixture is thick and
creamy and looks as If it will harden
when cold. Then pour into a butter
dish and cut while 1t is still slightly
warm. You will probably have to make
1t a couple Of times before you will be
able to tell the exact minute to stop
stirring and pour 1t into the dish.

OPIUM.
BY A PHYSICIAN.

Opium poisoning may be known by
the contracted pupils of the victim,
and by slow breathing. At first the
breathing Is slow and full, but 1t grad
ually grows slower and shallower. The
pin point pupil is the most charac-
~teristic symptom.
Give emetics-a ~teaspoonful of mus
tard in warm water or a tablespoonful
of syrup of ipecac.
Remember that opium poisoning may
result not alone from the drug in its
original form, but from laudanum,
morphine, paregoric and the various
soothing syrups and cough cures that
depend upon opium for their action.

If cold storage is utilized to insure
condition only during the time re-
CURED for delivery to the consumes it
does not apprecianly deteriorate the
quality of the product from the point
of view Of health. The dangers of de-
layed storage, to which reference is
made here, are those affecting pala-
liability and health. The momen that
a perislable article of food is stored
so long that its taste is impaired its
wholesomeness must of necessity be
affected.
Palatability is one of the dominant
factors of dig~estibility and hence its
impairment affects digestion. One
has only to make a simple experiment
to illustrate this point. 1t is custo-
mary to pack butter, for instance, in
June for consumption in December, or
later. Butter made just before the
time of consumption is easily compared
with that which has been kept for
longer thar six months. The differ
ence in flavor is distinctly ~appreciable.
In the ease of eggs the change in
flavor is even more apparent. Fresh
eggs, laid in January. may be compared
with Eggs which have been stored since
June and anyone, even though not a
change in flavor. When for any reasor
the storage of fresh products is con.
tinued for long periods. not only is the
impairment of flavor most pronounced
but the changes which take place Otter
