FROZEN DISHES.

There is no dessert which ever takes
the place of ices and ice creams during
the hot weather; they are not only re
ireshing but nourishing, and are SO
universally well liked that one cannot
go amiss to $erve them on all occa'
The plain Philadelphia ice cream
may be used as foundation for any
number of delightful combinations, for
example:
Nougat Ice Cream.-Add a half cup
full each of chopped filberts, walnuts
and almonds with teaspoonful each
Of almond and vanilla extract One
can buy the plain cream all frozen in
many places so reasonably, and it can
be repacked with any additions of fruit
or nuts, making the work very light.
The flavor of peach is given by put,
ting two cups of strained peach pulp
and a teaspoonful of lemon juice to
plain ice cream.
A delicious flavor of almonds is Civ
en- to ice cream in this manner: Blanch
and chop a cup of almonds, carmelize
four tablespoonfuls of sugar and add
the almonds When cold grind to a
powder, add to the cream with tea
spoonful of almond extract
The most delicious of creams is
made by adding two cups of squeezed
and strained raspberries to the cream.
The color is enhanced by the addition
OF teaspoon of lemon juice.
A pretty and easy way to make
fancy dessert is raspberry bonnie:
Line melon mold with raspberry ice
and fill with vanilla ice cream or with
pineapple ice or ice cream. Pack in
ice and salt and let stand four hours.
Serve with " tipped cream or garnish
with fresh berries and leaves.
SuItana RoII.-This is a great favor

CLING TO BLACKS AND WHITES
Combination Always Popular Seems to
Show Little Falling Off in
Favor.

In spite of the rage for color which
threatened our peace Of eye so seri-
ously in the early days of SUMMER, we
remain very faithful to the time-hcn-
ored combination of black and white.
Amongst the most successful of white
lace dresses destined to adorn Ascot
is one made in tunic style with broad
hens Of black ninon, short, rounded,
black ninon coat hanging in sack style
over this ruched with black ribbon
with a white picot edge and the whole
is to be crowned with black hat lined
beneath with white chip with a forest
of black and white ostrich feathers
waving their fronds over the crown;
a parasol Of white lace hemmed with
black chiffon will complete the effect.

Picturesque Tunic Frocks.

Despite the success of taffetas
which had such run during the
spring, it was inevitable that the soft
clinging materials should sway for
summer, and consequently modes are
becoming somewhat simpler. What
constitutes a pannier in the crisper
silks becomes merely folded drapery
in silk linen and chiffon.
The favorite fashion of the moment
is the tunic frock, for the tunic is such
a versatile garment that it may be
said to merge into the pannier in some
of its simpler forms. Mousseline de
sole and lace take alternative parts in
the latest Paris frocks to the tunics.
