PEG-Top MODEL Is FAyoRITF,.

For general wear the skirt that has
its greatest width at the top is very
popular. 1t has what is called the
"peg-top silhouette" The fulness at
the top is laid in a few plaits and
the width at the bottom is sufficient
for comfort. but it is also narrow
enough to slip up on the ankle and
drape in walking. 1t is extremely
pretty and graceful. and l think is
going to be one of the great favorites
among the latest fall models. OF
course. says a writer in the Delin-
Gator. it is not the only skirt that
you can use for your autumn semi
tailored suit and dresses. by any
manner of means. There are very
smart draped skirts that give the
same silhouette as well as the draped
skirts that are straight in effect. The
accordion plated skirt is used by
many of the best Paris houses and
the skirt with a flaring peplum is
gaining steadily in popularity. 1 don't
want to give you the idea that the
peg-top skirt is the only model of
the autumn, 1t isn't. but it is very
good. and the novelty of its cut will
appeal at once to the woman who
likes to give her wardrobe. even if 1t
is a simple and unpretentious one,
the variety that one gets in adopting
a new and attractive style,

first. When nearly done add the we'll
beaten whites of the eggs and finish
freezing. Let ripen for one hour
and serve in tall glasses.
Watermelon Pickles. ,
Materials = Ground allspice, two
teaspoons; cinnamon, two table,
spoons; cloves, one teaspoon; mace,
one teaspoon light brown sugar,
four pounds; cider vinegar, one pints
green ginger root, one-half ounces
watermelon rind, seven pounds
(peeled).
Utensils-Porcelain lined kettle,
teaspoon, scales, measuring cup,
jars, pairing knife.
Directions-Divide the spices in
three parts and tie up in muslin bags.
Put the sugar and vinegar into the
Kettle; add the spice bags and gin
ger root broken into small pieces.
Bring to boil and put in the water
melon rind cut in about two-inch
length pieces. Bring to a boil once
more, remove from fire, cover and
let stand in cool place twenty
four hours. Then take out the melon
rind and let the syrup come to a
boil. Add the rind again and set
away for another twenty-four hours.
Do this daily for one week. The last
time bring all to a boil and simmer
very gently ten minutes and put
away in jars. Do not think any part
of this too much trouble, as results
are good and you will feel well re-
paid for the effort, which really takes
only few minutes each day.

Fashion Notes

The shirred skirt is more and more
in evidence
Elton Jackets OF contrasting colors
are seen with many tailor-made suits.
Among the popular all-black ma
terials are ratine, cotelet, gabardine
and eolienne.
Some of the new evening coats are
made so as to give the effect of
cape over the shoulders.
Short satin coats with tiny basques
will be worn this fall even more than
during the summer.
Many of the exquisite filmy stuffs
for evening wear have stenciled or
hand-painted designs.
Broadtail cloth is exceedingly smart
for tailored suits. Panne velvet will
be used for trimming.
Tiny punches of fruit or flowers are
used for trimming evening gowns;
these are especially smart for catch
ing up the fulness Of the draped
tunicS.
Sleeves and sashes of maline are
features of many evening gowns
Other distinguishing notes are ropes
of heavy black beads, which hang
fashioned trains.
Motor sunshades of leather, lined
with silk, or of pongee, silk lined, are
small and usually jointed like a car
riage parasol. A very good-looking
one which unscrews is easily packed
Very smart are the belted raincoats
of dull gros grain. They have rubber
lied backs and the collars, which are
made so they fasten high, like those
on the "slickers," have inserts of vel

HOW TO JUDGE MELONS.

There is no other fruit perhaps

at last it is ripe it is eagerly enjoy

surroundings of it may be.
Nothing is more vexatious to the
housekeeper than to order a melon
and go to the trouble and expense
of chilling it only to discover when
if has been cut open that all time,
money and energy were wasted with
an unripe or poor quality melon. It's
true the grocer does not grow the
melon, but he and all his clerks
should be taught how to judge
good, ripe melon-whether water
melon or contemplation one
which is green or of an inferior
duality. But better still, learn to
Judge it yourself. This is a pretty
good guide: Snap the melon in the
centre with the thumb and middle
finger. If it is green there VIII be
a hard, very clear sound, and very
distinct. If the melon is ripe the

Plugging a melon, that is, cutting
little cube out of it, was the only
way of testing a melon and per-

Testing a cantaloupe is no easy

half of these melons purchased are
unfit to eat when cut at home. Press
ing on the end means nothing when
they have been pressed dozens OF
times during the day. Smell them.
There should be an odor if they are
ripe Then take them, in both hands
and press gently; if there is no
spring whatever and they feel firm
and hard they are surely green.
How to Serve Watermelon.
Melons should be we'll chilled and
if served with a meal either at the
beginning or close should be eaten
slowly. Too much chilling of the
stomach binders digestion and causes
many people to say: 81 cannot eat
watermelon" Eat it for lunch or
between meals. 1t is often cut into

In Doing Up Fruit

1t is well to look at all canned
fruit a week or so after it is put
away. BY that time air bubbles will
have arisen if they are to appear.
When these are evident, cook the
fruit again.
In making marmalades or preserv-
ing 1t is well to put the Iruit and
sugar into the kettle in alternate
layers. The fruit, of course, is put
in first. Stir occasionally to prevent
the mixture catching.
1t is always good plan to rinse
the preserving kettle with cold water.
The moisture on the bottom and side
is a factor in preventing the fruit
burning.
In making jelly let the fruit juice
drip through the jelly bag. When no
more drips easily, the remainder of
the fruit may be squeezed, but keep
this liquid separate. Use it in maxi
ing marmalade or a second-grade
jelly. 1t VIII taste as well but will
not be so clear as the drip jelly.

Evolution"
Dear Miss Doom:

Dear Miss Doom:
Can you give me the words of the
poem Evolution" that was published
in your paper several years ago, at
the time the author died? l saved the
clipping for a long time, but cannot
find it now. 1t begins:
When you were a tadpole and l was
a fish,
In the paleozoic time.
And side by side on the ebbing tide,
We crawled through the ooze and
slime;
Or sheltered with many a caudal flip,
Through the depths of Cambrian
fen,
Ny heart was rife with the JOY of
life,
For / loved you even then"
will appreciate very much your
publishing of the poem, which is one
of the biggest and greatest l nave
ever read. ENOlo IlON.
Can reader let me have this poem!
|. too. am fond of Evolution and
used to have copy of it. 1t was
written by Langdon Smith at the
time he was writing baseball news
for a metropolitan paper. Later it
was rewritten and published in a
magazine.
