EMERGENCY DISHES.

Usually dishes that are needed in a
hurry are not those of little cost,
though they need not be extravagant.
Under the sudden pressure of unex-
pected company, and the demands on
ones hospitality, the subject OF ex'
pense Is for the moment forgotten.
A very excellent idea is to have a
few emergency recipes posted In a
convenient place near the hospitality
shelf Of good things, reserved for just
such occasions.
AS simple dishes are best liked by
the best people, and more thought is
given to the dainty equipment OF the
table, than to lavish display, any one
with hospitable instincts, good taste
and small means, can entertain most
satisfactorily.

1t is hard to believe that coffee will

Bathetic.

General Marion Maus has a keen
and delicate taste in literature, and
at a recent dinner at Vancouver Bar
racks, discussing a popular novel or
little worth, General Maus said:
The pathos Of the book is really
bathos. 1t reminds me of private's
widow. The good woman was about
to sell her household furniture, her
rugs, plated ware and what not. AS
she was going over these articles her
eyes filled with tears, a host of men,
cries rose to her mind, and, laying
aside half-dozen knives, she said:
"'Oh, dear! | can't let these go!
They've been in poor Georges mouth
too often!"

time immemorial it has been an ap-

however, a remarkable lack of inven-

tically to the guests who were invited
to meet the Connaughts and Princess
Patricia on their recent visit. Surely
New York is going to the dogs when
it can only muster a beggarly 300.

DAINTY Carriers,

The curious fancy for mingling
black with the adornment of lingerie
and other more personal articles is
finally manifested In a pair of gar
tiers.
On the shirred black band that
forms the solid part of the garter are
sprinkled silk roses in pastel shades;
the same flowers ornament the lace
rosettes, from which dangle smaller
roses on ribbon ends. The lace frill.
ing Is lightly embroidered with black
silk.

erly. These points are so we'll taken
care of by artists in millinery that
even the simplest-seeming hats are
really amazingly we'll thought out and
adapted to their wearers.
The lines of the Dutch bonnet, the
dear Wilhelmina, have been managed
in all sorts of ways. A pretty adapta-
ton 10 shown here, having a crown
of purple violets and brim covered
with purple velvet. A similar hat, in
soft hemp, shows a decided point at
the front and a small rather pointed
crown, which would be insignificant
except for two ears of silk perched at
the front. The shape in navy blue
had a wide flange of velvet in the
same color and the loops, or ears,
were of taffeta silk, also in plain navy
blue Of rather bright shade.
A hood of turcan laid over a cap
shape, covered with black silk, is also
an unusually clever development of
simple lines and handsome materials.
The rolled-up brim Is covered with
two folds of black satin and bow of
ribbon in black satin finishes band
which apparently holds the point of
the hood in place at the back.
The liking for quaint shirrings,
Quillhgs and ruchings came in with
the return of fabrics with which they
were used almost half century ago.
A shirred band Of changeable taffeta
finishes the soft straw bonnet shape
shown here. Two rosettes of the taft
feta look like big, full-blown roses;
they are placed at each side of the
brim. A short broad plume, in the
colorings of the silk, finishes the hat.
The hats shown in the illustrations
are very practical models. Although
each hat, it must be conceded. is chic
ito the French degree) yet each Is
simplicity itself.

KING PETER IS IN TROUBLE

Is the bloody drama of 1903 about
to be repeated in Belgrade? That is
a question that all Europe, including
Servian people themselves. are ask
ing. For weeks reports have emanat
ed from Belgrade that a conspiracy
has been formed among the officers OF
the army having for its purpose the
dethronement Of King Peter, if nee
essary, by as violent means as those
Of the terrible night nine years ago,
when King Alexander and Queen
Draga were murdered in the palace.
King Peter is paying for whatever
guilty knowledge he may have had OF
the regicide plot with uneasy days
and sleepless nights. Now In his
sixty-eighth year, he is wondering if
it was worth while after all, to trade
his peace of mind as a private citizen
in Switzerland, for the bloody crown
Of Servia. Through the palace still
stalks the restless ghost of Alexander
and the kings ears must still resound
the echo of the shrieks of Draga.
