tunics or overdresses seems to afford the

The tunic represented is navy mar
auisette with side hem trimmed part
way with satin-covered buttons and satin
loops, and terminated at the knees,
where the drapery is caught with small
bow of the satin. The bodice fronts turn
away with white satin facings, one side
decorated with loops and the other with
buttons, while the collar with its jabot is
removable.
Alternating with this is a tunic Of rose
colored chiffon made with wide bretelles
of venetian lace banding, the ends OF
which are slanted up toward the inside,
with the outer corners or points tipped
with a tassel. At the back the slanted
ends occur two or three inches above the
waist line, and joined to them with per-
fect-fitting seams is a panel OF similar
lace that extends rather more than half
way down the length Of the skirt.

Making Simple and
inexpensive Desserts
BY ELIZABETH LEE.

Simple desserts which can be prepared
without undue outlay Of time or money
will include snow pudding. raspberry
jelly, junket Denbigh pudding. floating
Island, custards and fruit with tapioca
or rice.
All these dishes are quite nutritious.
also are excellent for the children's lunch
during warm weather.
Every child loves snow pudding To
make il. soak a couple of tablespoonful
of gelatin in a little cold water, and
pour over a cup Of boiling water. SuI
IN one cup Of sugar and the juice of
couple of lemons
When the jelly is cold. but not set.
beat it thoroughly until perfectly white.
and set in a mold to chill Some cooks
add the white of an egg well beaten
after beating the jelly. but this is not
necessary. The pudding will be deli
cious without It. 4 small portion OF
the jelly could be colored with the juice
of a few berries and be used TO ornament
the white portion.
Those children who do not care Tor
rice will like II when served In the
form of snow balls, with a bit Of fruit
in the middle.
Rice should be boiled soft, and then
nodded around a stoned peach. plum
or a few berries.
Served in an individual glass dish
with little colored sirup this is very
attractive, and certainly quite inexpen-
sive \ thin custard may be substituted

of eggs can ne used up in this way.
Now that raspbcrrics arc at their best

berry jelly made without gelatin
Tapioca IS the substitute. Cook three
or four spoonfuls in water till clear

full of raspberry juice and the juice OF
one lemon.
Stir we'll, and leave until the mixture
begins 10 thicken. vt this stage beat
well with fork and arrange like fluff

The small. oblong sponge cakes make
the foundation of Denbigh pudding. al
though any stale cake may be used.
The small cakes are cut through. max

the preferred. The pieces are then placed

These are arranged in glass dish.
the pieces only lightly touching each
other. and then covered with a thin
custard allowed to become almost cold.
Keep very cold until ready to serve.
Whipped cream and q few chopped al
monds make an agreeable addition, but
is by no means necessary.
Floating island and junket are dishes
too well known to be mentioned other
than as reminder.
A dessert not SO well known is a
combination of fruit and cooked corn

that can be stewed.
Take a deep pie dish and half fill
with any preferred sweetened fruit. Cover
With cornstarch boiled. sweetened and
favored until the sh is three parts full.
Then place in the oven to brown the top.
This is a very wholesome dish for
children, taking the place of the fruit
pies.

The Care of JeWelry.

form OF belts. buckles. pins, brooches,
etc.-nothing more or less than ivory

ulents OF simple beads All these are
considered quite correct for warm wealth
or wear, while they are little or no
trouble al all TO take care of.
But il is very necessary the more
expensive pieces Of jewelrv should be
put away in good condition. and care
taken 10 preserve that condition. Other
wise the metals will surely tarnish. All
metals contain more or less alloy and
this is what gathers the tarnish-

should never tarnish. and express surprise
that il should do so, saying: Il bought

this remark frequently.
Undoubtedly the very best plan is to
