proper" Mourning

Dear Miss Doom:
| Is it proper for a person in mourning
| to wear a tan raineoat and black patent
leather shoes2 T. W.
People have discovered that the
wearing of heavy mourning in no way
enhances their respect for the de-
parted nor impresses very deeply the
friends and strangers with whom they
come in contact 1t is natural to want
to dress quietly when in grief, but
deep, elaborate mourning always
brings about the condition we desire
to escape. For what could be more
conspicuous? The all-in-black woman
is picked out of crowd where q nun
bred of her gray and blue or brown
clad sisters remain unnoticed.
Therefore, If / were you, l would
wear my tan raincoat and patent
leather shoes, and not have my hat
too sombre. For sorrow is too sacred
thing to be exposed to the curiosity
of the public, which looks one over and
says to its neighbor: 81 wonder who
that blacks for"
Do you mind my having given my
sincere opinion?
CHARItES.-Your question was an
swered some time ago. / told you
that such courses were given at the
Newark Technical School.

consult a physician Immediately. You
are right in thinking that an eight

so far, that man must always make
all advances.
Woman wards Irritation off because
she is oppressed by its latest quail
ties. She breads to awaken her dor
mant dream of the ideal, knowing it
is doomed to end in nothingness.
For Observation-Disclosures a
Irritation may end in tragedy for the
woman.
A man will flirt six months with
one woman and forget her in six days.
That is just as easy for him as it is
to fiirt with half-a-dozen women at
the same time.
But woman makes a tragedy of
each of her fiirtations, and she cher
ishes them all, and cries over them
most dramatically when she is alone,
until at last the right man comes
along.
Then she does not flirt any, more,
which the same cannot always be said
of the right man.
It is possible, however, that man
would not flirt any more, either, after
he found the perfect woman. If his
transient heart experiences were so
freighted with destiny as woman mis-
takes hers to be.

Summer Petticoats

Petticoats for wear with mid
summer gowns are the most fetchins
things imaginable. Some of theus
are SO soft and fine that they may
be drawn through bracelet, ana
are a far cry from the old-fashioned
stiffly starched and frilled affairs
/ that used to hold out woman's skirts,
In fact the modern petticoat is not
supposed to hold out anybody's skirt.
1t is obvious only by it's dainty
prettiness when the said skirt hap
pens to be lifted. Silk petticoats have
pleated frills of the silk or of chif-
fon in two layers.
Lingerie petticoats have founces of
fine machine embroidery, trimmed
with ribbon or with festoons OF little
silk roses.

Canning Blackberries

There are number of varieties of
blackberries. The long blackberry is
firnier than the round ones. Some
are much sweeter than others, SO
this should be taken into account
when putting them up. Be careful in
selecting them for canning and
choose only those which are ripe
clear through and are evenly ripened.
You will often find blackberries with
a green or red section on one side.
and these should be discarded.

Chambray Sheets

One housewife who pays special at
stention to the matter of bed linen
uses chambray for her sheets. She
says that while it is finer than the
cotton sheet, it wears quite as we'll
and has more nearly the texture of
linen than any other material.
Unlike linen, ii does not wrinkle
badly. So may be used without look
ing rumpled. The expense is slight
'ly more than cotton, but consider
ably less than linen.

You dragged me down until

You've shattered each and every dream,
You fooled me from the start
And though you're not true,
May God bless you,
That's the curse of an aching heart.
The dreams ! dreamed of future Joys
You smiled on, though you knew,
Deep down within your faithless heart
They never would come true.
Still further on you lead me till
Ny paradise ! saw,
Then with one word you banished all
My hopes forever more

Kitchen knowledge

Biscuit pies are good, and the best
sort is made with small biscuits ar
ranged on top of the meat so that
when they are baked they will barely
touch each other This sort of bis
cult crust is never soggy, as a solid
crust sometimes is, and the taste of
the crisp, crusty outside of the bis
cults is pleasant combined with the
meat.
Potato makes another good crust
for leftover meat pie. Prepare the
meat and put it In the pie dish. Then
cover II lightly with an inch-t thick
layer of creamy, mashed potatoes.
Bake until it is golden brown.
Fresh meat, of course, can be just
as well used for pies as leftover
meat, but almost every household has
enough leftover meat to make all
the pies it wants. When making pies
of fresh meat buy cheaper cut, as
the stewing and seasoning which go
with pie will make 1t tender and
savory.
A good pastry crust for chicken pie
is made in this way: Sift cupful of
flour, half a teaspoonful of salt and
the same amount of baking powder
together. Chop in quarter of a cup
full of shortening with silver knife
and moisten the pastry with a quar-
ter of a cupful of ice water. Roll the
crust out and dot il with little pieces
of butter. Then roll it UP and put
1t on the ice. In couple of hours.
when Ii is time to make the pie, roll
the crust out again. slit it, so that
the steam may escape, in several
places and spread it over the chicken
in a pie dish.

some reader of the column to know
that couple of cloves added to pears
when canning adds greatly to their
flavor. And small piece of horse
radish added to beets when putting
away for the winter makes them de-
licious. This is my way of making

Peach CObbler
Make dough same as for plain
cake. Pare peaches, remove pits and
cut in half, and put over top when
the cake is half done, being very
careful not to move the cake, as this
will make it heavy. Serve with
cream and sugar. 1t takes about three
