put the rumor proved unfOun1ed. as
much as white plush hats were worn in
the early autumn, they remain a good
choice. and their sisters in white velvet
are at the pinnacle OF fashion.
White plush is also used for suits. but
1T is very expensive because it is diff
cult to get. as the mills have not always
been able to supply the demand. White
velvet is made into suits, especially Rus
sian bloused ones. and into all manner
OF attractive afternoon and evening
gowns. One has not seen as many OF the
latter as was expected by the dressmak-
ers. for they argued that women would
welcome change from, satin which had
ruled the ballroom and the opera for a
decade: but satin remained first favorite
even though its chiffon draperies gave
place to those of tulle and crystals.
There were white satin gowns with
large velvet flowers on the surface that
made quite a sensation at the beginning
of the season, and when we'll draped it is
difficult to find more imposing evening
gown than this fabric makes. 1t is made
up without trimming. except the inevi-
table white tulle usually spangled with
pearls or brilliants. Those who have
handsome lace prefer to use 1t instead of
the tulle. and one might add that those
who have modest conditions also prefer
the lace, for it must be confessed that
the modern tulle evening bodice gives a
decidedly oriental effect of undress.
The fashion for white included ermine.
and this fur is at the pinnacle of its
glory, although the people who are ac-
customed to recognize it by it's black tails
do not realize that 1t Is errnine when they
see it in its present flawless. f1eckless con-
dition. The coronation of George V
started the fashion of removing the black
tails from the white surface. and now We
have it bearing a close resemblance to
white plush.
In truth, this fabric, as we'll Has cut
velvet, is used for muffs and shoulder
pieces. Rather wonderful sets have been
evolved that cost ABOUT one-quarter as
much as ermine does. There is a huge
pillow muff lined with white satin and a
long wide stole. which is worn With the
ends down the back. These are finished
with heavy white silk fringe :
White fox sets have ALSO jumped high
in favor since the demand for white
costumes began. The animals are dress
ed to look lifelfke. and women carry them
as though they were pets instead of or
naments. The: head and paws are placed
on the shoulder and the body hangs it's
full length across the figure, with the
tail tucked under one arm.
White jet, pearls, porcelain beads and
cut crystals have superseded all other
colored beads for trimming since white
began to rule Even black gowns are
lavishly 'ornamented with these white
gewgaws. and the effect is enhancing.
When the spring comes the all-white CO.'S
tune will seem more fitting to- this eli
Der of them in serge, in, crepe de chine
And, by the way. the. .all-white satin
frock, with white or black furs is one of
the best costumes to choose for lunch

The Best Cough Syrup is
Easily Made at Home
Costs Little and Acts Quickly.
Money Refunded II 1t Fails.

This recipe makes a pint of
cough syrup, and saves you about
$500 as compared with ordinary
cough remedies. 1t stops obsti-
nate coughs-even whooping cough
in a hurry, and is splendid for
sore lungs, asthma, Group, hoarse-
ness and other throat troubles.
Mix one pint of granulated sugar
with "a pint of warm water, and
stir for minutes. Put 2A ounces
of Pinex (fifty cents WORTH in
I pint bottle, and add the Sugar
Syrup.
This takes right hold Of cough
and gives almost instant relief. It
stimulates the. appetite. and is
( slightly laxative-both excellent
! features.
Pinex, as perhaps you know, is
! the most valuable concentrated
! compound of Norway white pine
extract, rich in guaiacol and the
J other natural healing pine elements.
No other preparation will do the
! work of Pinex in this recipe, al
( though strained honey can be used
instead of the sugar syrup, If de-
sired.
( This plan has often been imi-
{tated, but the old successful for
mula has never been equaled.
! A guaranty of absolute satisfac-
ton, or money promptly refunded,
goes with this recipe. Your drug
gist has Pinex, or will get it for
you. If not, send to The Pinex

There are those of you who, when
planning an evening dress, wish that you
could afford to have It's tunic made of
lace instead of chiffon, but you virtuously
decide 1t would prove too expensive, and
so select your chiffon, albeit with some
regret. l don't mean to say that chiffon
does not make a charming overdrapery:
1t does. and is used probably more than
anything else for the purpose but one
has natural long1ngs for lace when plan
ming a more elaborate gown. All this
is In the way of telling you that you
may have your lace tunic at not the least
bit more expense, and in some cases at
not as great an expenditure, as that in
volved in the selection of chiffons There
are lovely, diaphanous Chantilly and
shadow "all-overs." which can be had
quite as reasonably as chiffon. and which
make the very daintiest Of foamy over
draperies and come quite wide
The tunic of the model sketched is in
shadow lace and shows a novel treat
ment The dress foundation is cream
white messaline, but has the lower part
OF the skirt length completed in violet
satin. A fold of violet satin. surpliced
in the center front of the corsage, is
carried over the shoulders, surpliced at
center back. with ends continued about
the waist. underneath the lace tunic-
blouse, and finally tied in a bow at the
center front opening. The little lace
overblouse has kimono sleeves and is
mounted just over each shoulder, leaving
wide opening in front and back. The
tunic skirt is gathered trifie at the
waist. falling evenly to within couple
of feet of the ground, where it is taken
in again and pouched little under
band of dark fur. which also forms
heading for the siX-inch f1ounce finished
at its lower edge with a silk ball fringe
The train is the feature of the gown,
with lace falling down the back in jabot
fashion and extending into one side of
the double-end train. The other side is
caught from under the fur banding at the
center back The treatment of this novel
train suggests an admirable method Of
utilizing long lace scarf, if you are
fortunate enough to POSSESS one

VAL LIABLE AIDS FOR
THE AMATEUR COOKS

In making croquettes bread crumbs will
be found far superior to rolled crackers.
so bits Of stale bread should be saved
for the purpose. Since it is necessary
the crumbs should be very fine indeed.
the better plan will be to dry the bread
in the oven when required for use to
CRATE the pieces instead of crumbling
them. Sometimes rolling will answer.
This is quicker method than the graf
ing.
Next beat an egg slightly with a couple
Of tablespoonfuls of water and pour into
a pie plate. Spread the crumbs upon a
board and, having formed the croquettes,
roll each in the crumbs, then in the egg
and again in the crumbs.
Set aside and put on the fat to get
thoroughly hot.
Lard mixed with drippings can be used !:
also any of the pure oils on the market
intended for frying purposes.
Fry the. fat with a piece of bread be-
fore putting in the croquettes. If the
right heat the bread will brown while
forty is counted.
Heat the frying basket first by dipping
into the hot fat to prevent sticking, then
fill with the croquettes carefully. When
cooked take out and drain ON paper.
Quite novel recipe for croquettes.
which should be seasonable, is al ollows:

Il dealt and bid no-trumps, against
which \ saw no hope of going game,
and even eight tricks with spades for
trumps was doubtful, but he thought he
would try to push the dealer out of his
depth by bidding two tricks i'm CLUBS.
This is in accord with the principle just
stated, that the bidder should have some
honors in the suit with which he makes
the bluff. knowing that the dealer must
have it safe.
When and B passed Il went two no.
trumps. and then A passed. being care
full not to double for fear would show

make was his six spade tricks, but that
was enough to- set the contract for 30
points.
Had II stopped to think over the sit
uation he should have seen that his no.

game with a big club suit against him

the club contract he would go down for
four tricks.
