Bonner and Bitten are very fond O children. Unfortunately they do
not look as amiable as they really are so most children run away when they

"One boy. however is not afraid of the bears He is Robert the three

SECRET OF GOOD FOOD
INDIVIDUALITY IN COOKING 10
TO BE DESIRED.
Work 10 the One Whose Meals
Are Palatabie.

A prominent Engllshman, comment
ing On US and our institutions, says
that the food provided in the large
hotels Is as good as can be expected
outside of O small restaurant.
1t Is a criticism that has more IN
1t than seems, for IL most of us were
offered the choice Of a meal at a large
hotel oF a small restaurant would we
not take the large hotel2 Yet the
right kind of small restaurant would
in all probability furnish US with a
more ~palatable meal. For In the right
kind of small restaurant one gets per
sonal cookery. And delightful indi-
viduality in cooking is as much to
be desired as In anything else. All the
places that are famous for their cook
cry are famous because OF some per
sonality. They become known through
their chef. They are spoken Of as
Oscars, or Josef's. or Nine. Gruyere's.
1t ts the personality of Oscar, or Jo-
sef, or madame that is the sauce
piquante of the cookery there.
It Is this lack of personal cookery

CAMP COOKING.

For the housewife In the modern
Kitchen, with all the useful, helpful
devices to aid in making homework
a pleasure, the simple outfit of a
camper would find her helpless. A
sack of flour, a hunk OF bacon or salt
pork and a frying pan is oftimes all
the working materials a camp cook
who travels, carries. The camper
builds his fire, making q stove of
stones, on which he places his frying
pan, and In which the pork is o o siz-
cling. He opens the sack Of -four, pours
in a little water, and adds salt. IL he
should be fortunate enough to have
any, mixes the dough in the top of the
flour, bakes 1t In the hot frying pan.

There Ia a shirred collar of lace about
the crown. The brim allows itself an
eccentricity at the back. 1t has an
upturned cape under which white os-
trich plumes, tipped with gray shad-
ing into black, are placed. They
seem to nestle there blending the hat
into the figure OF the wearer.
An embossed velvet is employed in
the pretty hat shown in Figure 3.
Such a covering presupposes the SIM
plest trimming, therefore nothing
could be better than the soft pure
white feather-spray which appears to
be thrust through a slash In the vel
vet. 1t is fastened with stitches plac-
ed with great care SO that they are
hidden in the velvet leaf which Ia
raised on the surface Of the hat cover
ing.
This is c~ommendable millinery. 1t
requires fine n~eedlework. The shapes
are notably moderate in size. 1t is
quite likely that size will dwindle and
that the spring will find us affecting
small close-1tting headwear.

NeckWear manufacturers thought

because they are made of such soft

and ivory-tinted shadow lace go into
exclusive models and every detail OF
the Workmanship Is dainty and beau
tiful, q ready-made effect being
avoided.
Most OF the winter neckwear, even
the collar designed for wear over the
coat, Is low at the neck and the collar
