"Shucks, Miss Dor'thy; I'm only

And then they heard nurse Nellte's
voice again, full of impatience this
time.
Coming" cried Dorothy, seizing
Davie by the hand and rushing from
the stable, with Nipper capering ex-
citedly at their heels. Here We
are, Nellie"

No. sir. Dayie Dear." This cookie

at the plump. raisin-filled cookie she
had in her hand.
Nipper gazed greedily at the
cookie. too, and as he gazed he
,wagged his tail coaxingly.
Not bite till you do your trick, .
Dorothy told him with severity, SO
don't coax. Nipper Dear. You'll
Just have to learn to sit np. and
that's al there is to it. Henry. you

Nipper howled feebly as Dorothy
seized him firmly under his fore
paws.
Hold the cookie just above his
nose she directed, land when !

paws and We'll see if he stays that
way. He win, I'm sure, if you put
the cookie just where he won't be

patieAtly, mot the whole cookie
Just a piece of It,"
''Yes'm," said Henry in a meek
voice that belied the laughter in his
eyes, are you ready?" And he
held bit of the cookie just above
Nipper's wriggling, shifting nose.
sNowl" cried Dorothy.
She released Nipper's paws and,
sure enough, he balanced beautifully
for nearly a minute.
Now, give him the piece of
cookie, Dorothy commanded.
Henry obeyed, and Nipper swal-
lowed 1t in one gulp.
Il don't believe he even knew
there were raisins in it," said Davie
in mournful tone. "Raisin cookies
weren't meant for pups
well, he liked it, didn't he? Now,
we'll do the trick again." replied
Dorothy. They practiced, and they
practiced, until the cookie was all
gone. and with each effort Nipper
balanced a little longer.
you're doing fine" cried Dorothy,
giving the puppy a hug which made
him squeak like a toy doll. Now.
We'll try without the cookie, cause
it's all gone. anyway"
This time Nipper failed utterly.
There was no regard, you see.
II guess mebhe he's tired" said
Henry, the handy man. I'D let him
forget about it for a while. Miss
Dorothy. Puppies amt got much
brains, an what they have are apt
to git tired If they use 'em, amt
they. old Nipper?" And he leaned
down to scratch Nipper behind the
ear.
Nipper wagged his tail in appre-
citation Of this kindness. Every dog
in the world likes to be scratched
behind the ears.

Blouses

Velvets, chiffon, satins, crepes and
laces are used for the blouses of the
more dressy type, such as are most
frequently worn at tea dances.
One straight up-and-down blouse
in question is made with pipestem
straightness and severity. There is a
peplum attached to a broad, loosely
htted belt of the material, giving the
straight-line effect from shoulder to
hem of the garment. The edges are
all bound by fine silk braid, same
shade as the blouse material, says
the Philadelphia Record.
The blouse is made with high
standing collar and long sleeves, with
slightly fitted cuffs, and 1t fastens
at the left side of the back. There
are inset pieces of colored embroid-
cry which add an attractive color
note to the blouse.

three pounds of veal; three pounds

pot, cover with water and boil until
tender. Take tripe and veal out,
cut in cubes and return to the pot.

Knitted Silk Petticoats

Petticoats of knitted silk are faI
more durable than those made even
of the softest and best satin.
For eventually the satin wears out
and it seems as IL the knitted silk
fabric never wears out. 1t is usually
used for the upper part of the petit
coat and in more expensive ones Is
used also for the pleated ruffie.
These are more than worth the extra
price charged for them.

Mulberry is one of the popular

for the gown is slightly bloused at the
low, corded waist line and at the cord
ing over the hips.
Scalloping is an Individual feature
of the costume, for it is found at the

The extra cape on coats of all de-
scriptions is striking feature of this

cape that is part of the back only, and
fastening to the coat just before 1t

eliminated as separate feature. Par
