Draperies on CIoaks.

The cloak that is draped is to be as
fashionable an item of attire as the frock
that is treated in like manner. 1t Is as
consequence of the drastic changes in
the silhouette of attire that the volumi-
nous mantle in it's latest edition Is a very
different affair from the sheath pattern
of the past.
The sleeveless coat will be in the fore
most ranks of fashion during the season
for wear in the house with the afternoon
or evening toilet. Designed with the flow
ing grace of the classical robe and made
of q thin material. this coat will be an
exceedingly graceful addition to the ward
robe.
1t is specially well adapted for the EN-
bellishment of tea gown, and Is in this
connection an old friend.
Very beautiful is q model made of ecru
lace with gold net collar covered with
macaroons Of gold braid. The armholes
are edged in the same way, and the coat
is caught together upon the bust line and
below the waist by macaroOns of gold
braid
The mantle dress has found an abiding
place in the fastidious woman's outfit. It
Is either a coat like an academic gown or
one that recalls the primitive Mother
Hubbard or bonnie femme garment,
gagged upon the shoulder line and left to
fall in comfortable folds.
In order that the cloak shall not prove
bulky In appearance 1t Is worn over q
very simple dress, with a little very eff
fective trimming upon the decolletage
line, and something specially smart In
chemisettes and collars above 1t. Black
tulle is newly chosen for the purpose.
But there need be no fear that the
Mother Hubbard cloaks OF the coming
season will be cumbrous. Every mate
rial used for them is lissome and fine in
the extreme. Even the new taffetas are
of the consistency Of crepe de chine, ex.
quisitely appropriate for draping pur-
poses.

WHAT TO EAT AND
HOW TO PREPARE IT

So many requests for homemade candies
are received one Is treasured of the con-
tinued interest the average girl finds in
making her own sweetmeats. After all,
it is a happy way to spend an evening, as
the number of pleas for good ice cream
candy, limiting of an old-fashioned "taffy
pull" will attest. Here are some simple
and delicious candy recipes:
Glazed Nuts.
Various kinds of nuts may be glazed ex-
cepting peanuts. which are not especially
nuts Is better than hickory nuts and but
ternuts for glazing. Have the meats
nicked from the shells. Boil granulated
sugar with enough water to thoroughly
dissolve II, stirring 1t as little as possible.
When it will spin thread stir In the nuts
and let them cook a very little, for IL left
too long on the stove the oils will be
spreading them thinly, and when cold
they win be found to separate easily.
About one-half cupful of sugar is suff1-
cient for one-half pint of nuts.
Cocoanut Drops.
Take one pound of cocoanut, half
pound Of powdered sugar, the white OF
one egg, work all together, roll into little
balls in the hand and bake on buttered
tins.
Kisses.
Beat the whites Of four eggs to a stiff
froth, stir into 1t a half pound pulverized
sugar. Flavor with essence of lemon or
rose, continue to beat until very light,
then drop, half the size of an egg and a
little more than an inch apart, on well
buttered letter paper. Lay the paper on a
haIf-inch board and place in a moderate
oven. Watch carefully. and as soon as
they begin to assume yellowish tinge
take them out.
Ice Cream Candy.
Three pounds of coffee A sugar. one
fourth pound butter. a half teaspoonful of
cream of tartar. eight drops extract of
lemon or vanilla. Add as much cold water
as will dissolve the sugar. boil without
stirring until it will easily break when
dropped in cold water, and when done add
lemon or vanilla Have a dripping pan
well buttered, and pour in the s.rup, one
fourth inch thick. When partly cold, If
pulled till white, 1t will be like the
Ice cream candy found at stands and
candy shops.

Latest American Fashions
BY CORA MOORE.

Lace plays such an important part in
the new evening gowns that We shall soon
cease to marvel at any eccentric treat
ment Of it. Bands. wide. narrow and
medium width, aIlovers and nouncings,
all are adapted to the dressmakers' pur-
poses.
OF course there is distinct satisfac-
ton in wearing real lace, and q little
that Is authentic is unquestionably more
to be desired than a great deal that is
merely imitation. Nevertheless, there are
some beautiful machine-made laces that
the most conservative should not hesitate
to wear, and many patterns OF priceless
pieces are so cleverly reproduced that
only the most expert among connoisseurs
is able to distinguish from the real.
In the sketch Is shown one of the in
teresting ways of utilizing lace in even
ing frocks. Cream-colored chiffon draped
over white satin makes up the gown, the
chiffon of the skirt being gathered to the
top, scantily across the front, anu rather
closely along the Sides while at the back
there is long plain section OF the chiffon
that terminates in pointed train
Low at one side is a lovers knot, traced
in mahve velvet ribbon, and at the back
of the belt line is another, while the line
of the belt itself is covered with a series
of tiny satin rOS6budS Caught 10 the
rose belt just at the center is broad
band of cream lace that traverses the
skirt diagonally right and left until it
meets the long chiffon back breadth. 1t
is sewed securely along the upper edge,
taking in the fullness Of the chiffon drap-
cry on it's way, but the lower edge is left
free to swing out a bit in front and near
the back panel to be turned up after the
manner clearly illustrated.
The corsage shows very pretty varia-
ton Of the kimono sleeve, being close
fitting and shirred up on the outside with
q narrow heading. From the belt OF rose
buds rise two points Of the lace. and,
forming a little v OF the chiffon. they
slope down under the arms so that the
back is almost entirely Of the chiffon.
In spite Of the fact that taffeta seems
altogether out Of place for ceremonious
wear. 1t has already been appropriated
by some of the debutantes for dancing
frocks. A changeable blue and gold, q
pale green and a coral tinted gown. each
of taffeta, were noted among the gowns
at q recent society dance given Tor CHAR

THE DAILY CHIT-CHAT.
By Ruth Cameron.

We were talking the other day about a
young mother who takes life unusually
hard, and some one cited another woman
who certainly takes life easy, IL any one

days." said this man, lis more easy-go-

This man who places such a high pre-
MUM on easy-going people is. needless
to say, easy going himself. For instance,
he does not believe in allowing family

some people do" He can't see why he
should be tied to a furnace as some peo-
pie are. He isn't. He attends to his
furnace when he happens to remember it
affd it gets along just as well that way
as other peoples furnaces do. That's
his story. OF course, that furnace gets
along all right. Why shouldn't 1t when

very hard, attends to it II he fails to?
That's the other side Of the story. He
doesn't tell that. Although he does oc-

Strangely enough, Mrs. r., whom he
applauded as woman who knows how
to take things easily, has husband OF
