Each season a coat suit of baby lamb

AMERICAN FASHIONS.

1t is fashions decree that fussy
blouses have had their day-for a time
at least-and so we must give our at
tention to much simpler designs. They
are extremely smart and very becom-
ing to most women.
| This season we have a number of
new blouse materials. most important
among which are the pussy willow
silks and lovely new chiffon crepe,
known as Georgette crepe.
Unlike chiffon, the Georgette crepe
needs no net foundation. for, while 1t
washes beautifully.
The pussy willow silks come in a
heavier quality than crepe de chine
and are a sort of cross between that
and messaline, with fine, subdued lus-
ter to them.

toned will work up nicely in today s

Dried Fruits.

Dried fruits are at their best at the
beginning of the winter season. especial
ly figs. dates and raisins Fresh apples
are so plentiful that the dried ones are
hardly worth buying and peaches and
pears are So much better timed and may
be had at very moderate prices But the
dried figs dates, apricots, prunes and
raisins will be found to be very useful
during the winter season.
The English have a very good and sim
pie dessert which they call fool. 1t
is made of whipped cream and stewed
fruit. Where the fruit predominates it
is called fool. but where the greater
quantity is cream it is call fruit cream.
Any stewed fruit lends itself to a
fool. and prunes are particularly good
served in this way. Stew the prunes un-
til they are very soft, and then rub the II
through a sieve. Whip some cream until
it is very stiff and then f,ld in the fruit
lightly. The Stewed prunes should be

delicious confection. Line a baking dish

with thick or whipped cream.
Figs Stewed in a little brandy and
served with cream make a delicious des-
sert.
Apricots. prunes. raisins and dates

good.
A cold fruit pudding is another Eng

fruit. Line pudding dish with slices

VARIOUS WRAPPINGS FOR WAIST.

On an evening gown of narcissus yell

embroidered with huge flowers i'll gold
threads. This is the only spot of trim
ming on the frock. It's beauty depends
entirely on it's lines and color. Yet no
one would want anything more sump-
tuous than the effect given by this
piece of embroidery.
The Successor to the Basque.
Possibly this oriental waist wrapping
is an outcome of the long wrinkled
basque. which. like many another fash
ion. was a precursor of a style based
on it. but differing from it. This is a
sartorial freakishness that those who
study the history of fashion and Its
effect on popular opinion make full
allowance for.
This is the reason that the original
designer rarely gets credit for the
movement which later spreads all over
the world. 1t seems a far cry from
the basque of Premet to the swathed
orientalism of a Chinese belt, yet the
original idea sprang from that house
and that garment.
Today the long waist line is still in
fashion, but it extends as far above
the waist proper as it extends below
it 1t is arranged in folds. straight or
bias. around the figure. extending from
the bust to the hips. The frock shown
In the sketch today is worn by a
debutante, but 1t can be copied in any
kind of fabric for an older woman.
This material is of blue tulle and taf-
feta The ribbon trimming is of velvet
and the wrapped belt is of the silk with
only shoulder pieces of faint blue tulle
reaching above it.
The belt. therefore. becomes the bod

their being loose in front and covering
the point of the chin.
This shape, remember. is quite the
newest touch in neck peltry: it Is far
more fashionable than the wide shout
der scarf. although there are women
who wear the two together. The effect
is not nearly as smart as when the
one high collar Is worn. leaving the
long line from the chin to the hips un-
broken.
1t was quite natural that the i'm
mensely wide fur band would come
forth as earnish to the skirt when
that skirt was cut circular. This is Z,
type of trimming that always goes
with that type of skirt: it reminds one
of fancy skating costumes more than
any other form of dress.
This Idea Is heightened by the short
ness of the skirt that is trimmed with
wide fur band. 1t reaches only to the
shoe tops. although one notices that

THE OBLIGING SALAD.

There is perhaps no more obliging
form of food than the salad 1t is
healthful, 1t is palatable, and 1t is at
its best when it is made of left-overs
Peas. beans. beets. asparagus tips,
caulif1ower. fish, flesh or fowl can all
be tastefully used in it's making.
The hearty salad is the complement
of a light meal. A salad containing
rice or meat can be made the main dish
of a delicious luncheon. For instance.
grapefruit pulp in cups can be served
as an appetizer. then can come a salad
of nuts and apples and mayonnaise,
with cheese balls and brown bread and
butter sandwiches. and then can come
tarts and tea. Another combination
might be tomato bisque in cups, salad
or boiled rice, cold. with minced green
mayonnafse. and toasted waters, cheese
and cocoa.
For dinner a light salad is the most
appropriate. salad of lettuce leaves
is perhaps the best dinner salad. The
simple home dinner can be terminated
with a light salad, toasted waters,
cheese and coffee.
A pretty salad is made OF watercress,
crisp and fresh, formed into a little
nest, in which are placed three or four
tiny cream cheese eggs.
Lobster and chicken salads are per-
haps the two best known and best liked
salads. 1t goes without saying that
lobster should be perfectly sweet and
fresh when it is used for salad; and it
likewise goes without saying that
chicken for salad should be carefully
cooked. Just because it is to be COM
bined with celery and mayonnaise does
not make it permissible to use tough
or tasteless chicken, although the
tougher portions if cooked long and
slowly, SO that they do not boil to
pieces, make a very acceptable salad.
A delicious salad is made of cold
corn beef or tongue, cut into tiny
discs and mixed with an equal amount
of diced celery hearts and dressed with
mayonnaise. A little bit of finely grated
onion may also be added.
Green peppers form a winter salad
standby. If nothing else is available.
they can be shredded or minced by
themselves and sprinkled over lettuce
leaves with a good dressing. They can
be minced and mixed with cream cheese
for little balls with which to garnish
salad. They can be shredded and mixed
with meat in salad. They can be mixed
with sliced tomatoes, or put with pota-
toes instead of celery for salad.

be depended upon to give a dash Of
color to a gown which needs brighten

solves this problem in a satisfying way.
