Ribbon Sandwiches

There are few women who know
how to make a ribbon sandwich.
Use white and brown bread, cutting
each slice across the loaf. Spread
lightly with a paste made from
canned red peppers and cream cheese,
mixed with small amount OF may
onnaise.
When the sandwiches are done,
place dozen OF more on top of each
other, the brown slice always down.
Press under heavy weights. then
slice from top to bottom so the white
and brown appear alternately in rib
bon effect.
A similar treatment is white bread
and deep rye bread, or with a deli
cate tinted rye and nut bread. This
last needs no filing, although a thin
layer of orange marmalade may be
spread on the pressed slices after
they are cut NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

Lobster, chicken. potato or fruit
salad will do. Mix with French

tongue or lamb may serve for the
cold meats. For the sandwich fill

chopped pickle, cream cheese mixed
to a paste with olive oil and
chopped pimentos; chopped stuffed
olives on lettuce leaves, minced ham
and pickle, or, If preferred, cold
meats of any description. Cut the
sandwiches neatly and trim off the
crusts from the slices of bread,
which must be cut very thin.

THE NEWEST COATS ARE SHORT

Do you like these snappy short
coats? They are the last word for
spring. The popularity of the
tunic, the pannier and the puff is
responsible for them. Many of
these little coats are bolero-Hke,
others are miniature getaways or
box coats.
1t is remarkable how we accus-
tom ourselves to the new modes and
grow TO admire something which at
first appeared more than extreme.
Also they appear to be the height
of economy, for If one desires she
may wear one of these little coats
with several different skirts. They
are fashioned OF plain fabrics and
worn with plaid skirts, or converse
ly they are fashioned of plaid or
brocade, to be worn with plain
skirts.
No. 8203-s204 shows an unusually
smart suit with a short coat and
draped skirt; the skirt is a cotton
duvetyn in white and the coat is
a black and white novelty cotton.

A Blue Silk Foulard Dress to
Be Washed

Dear Miss Doom:
Will you please tell me how TO

a white design? Thanking you In
advance, MARY A. D.

terial first. Soak in salt water. to
set the color; then wash with luke
warm water and white soap, and
rinse in water of the same tempera-
ture. Iron while damp.
II the sample washes satisfac-
torily 1t will be safe to wash the
dress. Be sure to use enough salt
to set the color thoroughly. II the
sample shows the faintest tendency
toward running, would not advise
washing the dress, as you might
ruin 1t.
Instead, let the gown soak In a
pail of gasoline for about fifteen
minutes, then rub the soiled places
gently between the palms of the
hands. Rinse in clean gasoline and
hang out of doors until the fluid
evaporates.
Do not use gasoline near fire or
in a warm room, as It Is highly
tnf1ammable.

of lace and to request the return to

which fur trimmed neckwear has
been received justifies the expert
ment, says the Indianapolis News.
Many effective models are on dis
play in the speciality shops and the

plated tulle and skunk fur, another
of net and yellow fox, and a third
of mousseline de sole and squirrel.
But so varied are the combinations
that every taste and fancy can be
gratified.
In window, the other day. was
shown an exceedingly smart model,
consisting of a square collar of MOLE
skin with Medici ruff and jabot of
white tulle.
This is an era of unusual colorings
in fur, and the woman who SO de-
sires may easily arrange to have the
fur garniture on her neckwear match

A WELL-BALANCED CHARACTER is Teach This t.

Daily Courier
Self-control means more OF course
than the mere exercise OF restraint
over the hasty temper and the hasty
tongue, important as this is. Perfect
self-control, self-restraint, self-sover-
eighty or whatever we may call 1t,
involves sovereignty of the will over
our thoughts, our words, our deeds
and our feelings.
The result of such self-control is
well-balanced character, one that has
reserve of strength which can carry
its possessor safely through many
shoals and quicksands in the sea OF
life and give her dignity and power
and dominance over circumstances
which the unbalanced or impulsive or
irnpetuous woman never can possess
