The v1sior to New York gains a

day soon learns by an oft repeated

This winter has Impressed me pri-
marily with the great prevalence OF
white haired women, whose youthful
faces and more youthful apparel make
it impossible to believe that there ever
were so many prematurely gray in the

OF course there are a number who
are gray just simply because they
can't run away from Father Time.
Bven these do. not submit gracefully

WONIAN's WAYS

If your young housekeeping friend
isn't already supplied with plenty of
round cases for her doilies, possibly
she might like one or more of your
handiwork- These are as practical as
they are pretty in these days of much
fine linen.
The following filling for cake is from
the Modern Priscilla: Melt two squares
of chocolate Add one cup of sugar,
three teaspoonfuls Of cornstarch dis
solved in cold water One egg well
beaten. Pour all Of this into one cup
Of boiling milk. Cook Until smooth.
Spread while warm. Lemon or orange
filling may be made in the same way,
using the rfnd and juice of one in
place of chocolate
Upon one of the new. enormously
and long tailless ermine scarfs,
finish of deep black silk fringe, knot
ted intricat e1y, Introduces the touch of
black that has been discarded in the
fur. Thus do we show our utter
disregard of practically, economy
everything but our own sweet will.
The value of the pepper on the farni-
~ menu is only just beginning to be
properly recognized Even for break
fast. a suggestion of this piquant
flavor in the scrambled eggs or the
omeIet will be found to be decidedly
tasty. But don't overdo tan oc-
casiona1 dish is pleasing; too much or
too often used one eocn tires of it.
