j. A. Victor, prominent real estate
dealer of 2318 North Capitol avenue,

a dismal failure when she attemp-
ted to make apple pie, will be glad,
no doubt, to receive the following
from Mrs. Jennie L.:
"Sorry you had such bad luck,

for making good apple pie. All
pastry needs quick oven to keep
it from melting. Never grease a

crust for the escape of steam.
Watch the bottom part of the. oven
and keep it free, from SCOT, which
often will prevent the bottom crust

Much more jewelry has been worn

of women. Semi precious stones, ar

two kinds of jewelry in America-thc

Fur Trimmings

Fur as a trimming is used to a great
extent. Some dresses are trimmed
with fur to the knees, to be worn with
a short fur jacket, shorter in front
than at the back.
Both deep and narrow bands are cut
so that the hairs OF the fur run down,
giving a fringe suggestion. Fur is
used as border to a long tunic OF
black voile. There are wide fur belts
six inches in length and placed very
low.
A pretty finish to an evening dress
of white tulle is a narrow belt OF fur
1t does not entirely encircle the waist
but is continued by ribbon ends tied
in a smart bow at one side or the
back The full skirt is narrowly edged
with the same fur.
All coats and wraps and some
Jackets have fur collars High chokers
both straight and curved, are new
The straight ones are set in wide
circle about the throat. The shaped
ones are high under the ears and close
about the neck.

Season of Backs

In the last few weeks it has been
not at all an unusual sight to see the
figures In the windows of the fash
ionable shops turned with their backs
to the streets. And the reason for
this turning about of these mute fig
ures was that the window diapers
had wisdom to know that the backs
OF the gowns they had to show were
much more worth showing than the
fronts, and that the critical woman
shoppers are much more interested in
the backs of their gowns this season
than In the fronts.
An evening gown of peacock blue
and silver-peacock blue brocade and
diaphanous silver lace and trans
parent cloth of silver-recently dis
played in this backward fashion,
would have been a very usual sort of
gown from the front The graceful
draping OF the lace, bouffant yet 1.-the
some arrangement OF the brocade
were details that could only be seen
from the back.
Yet it wasn't so very many years
ago when every we'll constructed
gown was entirely a matter of fronts.
The front of the bodice the front of
the skirt and the front of the sleeves
possessed all there was to show about

back was that II fitted well The
same was true of ones couture In

Fashions from Top Down

Did you ever notice that fashions
always start at the top2" This ques-
ton was asked a few days ago by
one of the prominent New York i'm
porters who studies the question OF
fashions in women's dress in this
country and abroad with the cold.
calculating eye of an expert business
man.
II have often noticed the fact that
any new and daring color scheme
starts in favor at the tip of the hat
Take, for instance, the combina-
ton of purple and cerise SO much
used by the successful dressmaker
this season. It began a few seasons
ago with a sparing use on the hat
Then it was seen on the coat col
lar, a little here and a little there.
Then we saw ii used in the girdle.
Cerise and purple combinations in
ribbon were extensively used for CIR
dies last summer, and now II is here
in full favor. Brocades showing that
combination with the addition Of me-
tallic thread are among the most
highly favored of the season"
Then further to substantiate his
theory this importer recalled that the
vogue for bright green's a few sea

in hair ornaments and on hats, and
that jet which is the most aeeeptab e
ornament of this season and is seen
from the crown of the head TO the
slipper buckle, was first introduced.
a few months ago in the guise of
hair ornaments.
This same theory has been ex-
pressed before by those who follow
the trend of fashions. A prominent
dressmakeP a few years ago came to
the conclusion that the tendency of
fashion was determined more than
anything else by the tendency of the
headdress.
The headdress. said this dressmak-
err, determines the style of hat to be
worn, and the style of hat deter
mines the style of gown. and styles
in dress cannot change any faster
than the changing style of hair dress
ing viii permit them.
Surely there is some close relation
ship between the mode of the hair
arrangement and the prevailing mode
of dress. 1t would be quite impossi-
he to imagine the hoop skirt and
slender waist of 1860 worn with the
psyche knot of few seasons ago. or
70 imagine the classic folds of a
Grecian mode worn with the high
powdered coiffure of Marie An

Fashion Opportunities

In the November Woman's Home
Companion, Grace Margaret Gould,
fashion editor of that periodical,
writes a highly interesting and i'm
portant article entitled, What the
War Means to Fashions" On the
opportunities now opened to Ameri-
can fashions Miss Gould says in
part:
1.-THE chances are that America viii
be thrown for some time to come not
only upon her own goods but her own
dress ideas. This may do US no
harm, for We have natural style an
~aee of our own did we know
enough to trust them. The American
woman buys Paris model gowns be-
cause they are lovely, smart in de-
sign, and exquisite in color combina-
ton. When she can find just as
charming clothes here in America she
will be perfectly satisfied to buy
them and delighted to wear them.

American dress designers great op-
portunity."

THE BRIDES OWN STORY

drops of ammonia in tepid water. be-
cause ammonia, as you know, is an
excellent cleanser for glass and tiled
surfaces. The white woodwork in
the bathroom Is also cleaned with
tepid water and soap. and II that
doesn't take off two or three brown
finger marks that little Philip has
left on the door we use some good
cleansing powder"
II like the idea of hopping and
sweeping. Really, IL does feel good to
throw the windows open wide and
swing your arms about in a good
tussle with the broom. But, although
I'D always had the idea that floors
must be scrubbed with soap and
water to be clean, l don't like the
picture of me on my hands and knees
scrubbing even one or two fioors-like
kitchen and bathroom. / said so to
Aunt Juliette, too But instead of
Gliding me for being over-fastidious
she said l was perfectly right
There's no reason why any woman
should crawl on the floor to scrub.
You'll see that my scrub brush comes
mounted on a long handle, Just like
the mop or broom. In this way, Lucy
stands upright when she scrubs. She
feels perfectly comfortable instead Of
being in the ancient, cramped posi-
ton. Consequently, she does better
work, and the long handled scrub
brush is more hard working and
/ longer-llved than the old, handleless
style, which had to be gripped tight
and pressed to the floor so that the
teeth were forever breaking. With
my long-handled scrub brush, string
mop and patent wringer don't even
have to put my hands i'm hot water
while scrubbing. And youth notice
that days when Lucy scrubs or mops
floors she's as neatly dressed as other
days, and only adds an oil apron TO
her costume"
Apparently even scrubbing hath its
Joys in the well ordered household.

Continued from yesterday


What is it now?" asked mother
Dear as she approached the chill
dren, scheming a mystery in their
excited faces; going to tell
mother?"
Not yet" said Dorothy, gig
Cling, and Davie chimed in:
you are not to know about it
till we're all ready"
"Ah, hal It's a secretp ex-
claimed mother Dear merrily;
very well, then, / promise not to
ask questions.
UNLESS you keep me waiting too
long," she added. I'm anxious
to know this very minute"
We'll tell you the very minute
we can" promised Dorothy.
When mother Dear had returned
to the house Dorothy elutched
Davies arm and hurried him dow IL
the steps to the back lawn.
We'll find Nipper and take him
out to the barn and practice the
trick" she said.
1t was easier said than done.
Nipper was not in sight. They
hunted on the front porch and the
side porch, in the woodshed and in
the cellar. Then they stood and
called his name, cupping their
hands about their mouths to make
the sound carry, but only Laddie-
dog appeared, cooking his ears as if
to ask why all this hubbub about
a puppy when I'm here. a grown
dog with any amount of sense?"
Dorothy patted. his head and con-
f1ded that he was still her best old
Laddie-dog, and that she loved him
very much
"But you're too big to teach to
sit in a corner" she added with q
gay little laugh; you'd look silly,
a big dog like you'll And that's why
we want to find Nipper."
Laddie wagged his tail and poked
his cold nose into Dorothy's hand.
1t was plain to see that he agreed
with her.
I'm too dignified to stand in
corner" his whole manner de-
clared He licked Dorothy's hand
and she leaned down to give him
hug which made the poor dog catch
his breath. He looked at Dorothy
with reproaclN then walked slowly
to the side of the house, where he
turned about three times, dog FASH
ion, and stretched himself in the
sun.
And just at that moment who
should come gaily trotting over
the grass but Nipper himself, his
tail wagging joyously and the tip
of his pink tongue hanging out at
one side.

some girl in dark satin skirt and
a thin white silk waist girdled by a

know, picking him up in her arms.
Nipper waved his puppy legs in
an attempt to get down. After a
moment or two Of struggling he
turned suddenly and fell to the
ground, yapping with all Of his
puppy might.
Dorothy and Davie both patted his
head and in a moment he was as
gay and carefree as ever.
"He wasn't really hurt, anyway"
said Dorothy wisely, puppies love
to make big fuss bout things,
don't they, Nipper2"
Then she picked him up again,
holding him securely this time, and
started for the stable with Davie
following. Laddie watched them
sleepily. then decided to investigate
and trotted after them.
Henry. the handy man, was rest
ing after his days work.

wanted to know, removing his pipe
from his mouth; got any more
dogs to bring in here?"

Henry chuckled.
"Shiver my timbers. So you're

"Adl right then" said Dorothy,
taking Nipper over to a corner, IT

barrass the puppy she added with
a giggle. Nov, you Nipper, sit
up therel" And she sat the dog in
the corner.

ra~'e paws "Stead-deer' Then,
slowly, she released his paws and
o.sr ne tumbled IN forlorn little
heap.
"Huhl He doesn't seem to like
his lesson much" commented Davie.

exertions, come Nipper, up you go
