JAPANESE CROSNEs.

An altogether new idea in vegetables
Of this country from far-away Japan
through the discovery of the famous
French chefs. The people of France en-
joy the delicate taste of the Crosnes du
Japon, as they call them, and consider
It quite a delicacy., Over here it is more
than that-it is as yet a luxury. A very
short space OF time should see them cul-
tivated in every home garden over here.
Crosnes are the roots Of a plant called
Stachys tuberifera, which has never been
known to flower, and consequently has
never set seed. These roots are the most
curious objects. white and deeply CORFU
gated in segments, which gave them the
appearance Of larvae of some insects. In
fact, they closely resemble the larvae of
the queen bee. The habit OF growth Of
the roots is in long strings and in great
abundance.
These roots maybe planted out in any
ordinary garden soil at the close Of
March or in early April, in rows a foot
apart. Each six inches in the row two
OF the roots may be set in. Except for
the necessary wedding nothing further
need be done for them. as they are per-
fectly hardy. Thy should be left in the
ground and only dug up as they are re-
quired for use, because their color be-
comes darkened when il is exposed to the
air.
They are used as a substitute for new
potatoes, with the same delicate flavor
For a delicious and excellent luncheon
dish few things can equal freshly boiled
crosnes served with cream sauce or melt
ed butter

Housewives Daily
Economy Calendar.
WHEN TASTES DIFFER.

The world is full OF Jack sprats and
their wives In fact, the little Sprats
are usually there with a dozen or 50
peculiarities OF taste which Housewife
Sprat has to consider three times a day
when she is ordering and preparing the
meals. Jack is very fussy about fat. He
cannot endure 20 have any fat left on
his meat. His sandwiches must be
served butterless. and he is always on
the lookout to detect the failure Of Mrs
Sprat to consider his popularity. One
of the little Sprats. probably. has pet
aversion to pepper. He declares that .
burns his tongue. Another little Sprat
cannot eat anything containing eggs,
and another can't endure even the sight
Of vinegar. And Mrs. Sprat. being used
to humoring Jacks peculisrities lets the
little Sprats grow up with their whims
until some day these tastes are too deep
grown to be uprooted.
OF course all this fussiness on the part
Of the Sprats makes cooking dificult in
that household. There must be special
dishes and special service for each mem
ber Of the family. 1t takes an amount

Of nervous force simply remembering the
the family that must be considered N
planning the amount Of work to be done
each day.
As a matter OF fact all good simple
food is good for almost everybody. There
are very few cases where the staples
actually disagree with any one and un-
less they, do there is no very good eX-
cuse for humoring our aversion to them.
Almost all children naturally dislike GER

a part of timidity or Of stubbornness as

AGAIN WE HAVE UNDERsLEEvEs

Undersleeves once more. You know
than well because your grandmother
and great aunt wore them during the
civil war, when they had their daguer-
reotypes taken. Precisely the same
looking undersleeves are now being re-
vived, but they are in batiste and linen,
instead Of in linen or Filipino muslin,
Nevertheless the hand-embroidered det
signs and rows of tucking are the same
and the narrow lace frilling are nerIy
always in Valenciennes. Sometimes this
lace Is used in stripes entire deux, with
plain or embroidered muslin. Very
dainty, too, are the undersleeves in fine
Swiss embroidery To fit these access
ories to elbow or three-quarter sleeves
inS an easy matter, for the tops are
gathered into a narrow band, which
may be tackled to the under side OF the
bodice's sleeves. They help TO exc cut
the frock once used solely for parties,
but now needed for afternoons at home,
for, by covering the lower part of the
arms and partly filling in the gowns

lin or batiste. its full dress appearances

NEED FOR CRAFTSMEN GREAT.
supply of EIiSIbIes for Government
Service Is short.

The examination held last week for
the position of Topographic Craftsman
in the government service will not go
far toward hlling the increasing need
for craftsman in the various depart
ments. The demand for this work has
increased a hundred per cent in the last
year or so, and il has been found i'm
possible to secure enough properly quail
ified craftsmen to keep up with IL.
The Columbia ScnOCl of Drafting, Of
this CITY, proven to be the chief source
Of supply Of topographic craftsmen FOR
the government. At the examination
held last week there were more candi-
dates from that school than all the other
candidates together. which shows where
the government gets most Of its topO-
graphic craftsmen
This is the only opposition which the
Civil Service Commission Gdvertises as
being short Of properly qualified eliz;ibles.
They say in their Manual Of EXamin-
ations: The supply Of eligibles for this
position has not been equal to the de-
mand' -
II is surprising that there are not more
young men and young women trying for
these positions. as Uncle sam pays from
81. 900 TO $500 as an initial salary, the
promotion usually comes rapidly after
a opcintment TO those who make good
Ii Is believed that the reason there -
not a greater number Of candidates IS
that this position is not generally known
OF, and especially the narHrc Of it.

MATCHES AND SAFETY.

When handling matches. those Of US
connected with them are wary. The re-
ceptacle mo which we put them is alb
soIutely fireproof Then, If we are wise
instead of foolish. we place the burned
matches in another little fireproof re-
ceptacle instead OF an inflammable
wastebasket Yet, almost invariably,
even the wise ones will place their burnt
matches in a tiny glass swung on a rib
bon loop from the gas jet, or some
nearby convenient place. Supposing that
burnt match should still have a
smolderlng spark in it that would set
fire TO the other dead matches. or should
leap up In a little tongue of flame and
lick the baby ribbon with which the
glass is usually hung? The result would
be a little heap Of blazing firewood upon
the floor, and the next thing the fire
bells would be Changing before the door.
To obviate this possibility, always string
up match glasses with wire. 1t Is hardly
likely that the matchwood within 1t could
burn long enough to melt the wire.
There is danger. however, of its breaking
the glass, so that to exclude danger en-
tirely receptacles for both good and burnt
matches should be metal or thick china.
Above all, teach the children to never,
under any circumstances. put a burnt
match in the wastebasket. Let them
place It upon a china tray or some piece
Of metal near by. Also warn them
against placing such a match, which
may have a quantity Of heat remaining
in il. near the celluloid combs upon the
bureau

SHORT CAKES.

Short cakes can be made of cooked
fruits, though most of us prefer the un-
cooked fruit. Here is a delicious, never
failing recipe for short cake that is
usually quite popular with men because
il Is not sickeningly sweet:
Measure to each cup OF flour a tea
spoonful Of baking powder, a half tea
spoonful OF salt. a tablespoon OF sugar
and q tablespoon of shortening. Add
enough water to make a thick batter.
Bake in layers, or in little individual
cakes. Split each layer and put the
crushed fruit between.
This recipe will suggest many others
to the busy housewife. In her dessert
selection she will of course be governed
by the amount Of time that she has to
spend as wen as the cost and the sup
plies on hand. For this reason it is well
to plan the meals and select the desserts
a few days ahead Stewed plums OF one
day can be followed by plum custard
Of the next. and SO on. Enough gelatin
can be made at one time to last several
days. Fruit can be served in between.
However, when this is tried il should be
remembered that gelatin is used in lab
oratories to produce bacteria. For this
reason 1t should be kept in a tightly
sealed mold, so that it is protected from
exposure.

FADS OF THE HOUR.

There are certain shop windows in
Paris given up entirely to the exhibition
of figurines. These are life-size figures
in wax sitting or standing in the act of
buttoning a glove or slipping from a cup
of tea or smiling insipidly at the figurine
opposite. They are always faultlessly
dressed according to the latest fashion
of the moment. Spectators, always or
nearly so of the feminine sex, crowd
around them. The place for the fgurines
is especially on the great central boule-
wards, running from the Church of the
Madeline toward the Rastile. There the
cosmopolitan and fashionable element of
modern Paris seethes and bubbles There
women with painted faces and ridicu-
lously high heels congrcgate between

collect around the figures in wax. revel-
ing in every detail they see, from gold or
bronze hair to henna-tipped fingers. The
henna-tipped fingers are in themselves
rather repuIsive than attractive, but they
please because it is fashionable thus to
stain the nails and finger tips. and per-
haps also because such staining suggests
the harem. All that Is new and fashion

CoFFURE ORNAMENTS
OF THE GRAND DAME

Since fashion<has ordained that the hair
must be drawn so far back from the face
that all of the brow shall be exposed, the
character of coiffures has changed and
with II the style Of the coiffure ornament.
OF these decorations, perhaps the most
remarkable is the windmill" composed
of four long, uncurled feathers, two OF
them pointing diagonally right and left.
At the front OF the head, these ornaments
would appear grotesque, but that is
not its position. Instead, 1t is posed at
the rear OF the coil and held in place by
a Spanish grandee comb. Another quaint
coiffure decoration, is a white peacock
eled crescent affixed to the center of the
a widows point, so much the better for
its owner. from an artistic viewpoint. Also
posed far over the brow is the skeleton
aigrette composed Of a pair of needle
pointed spirals. rooted in a jeweled ring.
The ring is supposed TO match the ear
rings and the neck pendant. for these sets
now come in pieces OF four.
A fetching use OF the single short, close
ly curled ostrich tip is to pose It far over
the brow with the aid of a slender bar
deau in jewels or rare stones. Very fetch
ing is the combination OF pearl bandeau
and black ostrich tip.
Another form Of the bandeau Is a trellis
in rhinestones or Jets closed above the
left ear under a single rose whose foliage
stem points backwards. And a third is
the length of silver gauze ribbon, twice
banding the coiffure. crossed above the
brow and supporting feather aigrette.
