QUIET DREAMS.

Quiet dreams in little nook of time
That is the world and the life in tb,
variant cline
That We call our world, with its discord
and its rhyme.
Quiet dreams that will satisfy sense
awhile and give to the heart the hone
and the help TO smile,
And set us to dreaming of the rest a, tbs
ended mile.
These shall be living and light to rs tbese
the dreams.
And in them the soul shall grow tn the
brighter CLEANS
And float to the higher beauty at last on
the deathless streams.
When we have been in the battle and
come forth worn
It shall be sweet to lie still in a grove OF
morn
In the quiet dreams of the col VT adnsbel
In the quiet dreams of the clover and tas-
seled corn.
For there shall be then in the quiet
dreams a gift
That shall clothe us with wings that shall
under us spread and lift
To the dream of the soul where the clouds
in their tenderness drift.

The art of making an omelet is an ca
act and delicate one. requiring judgment
and regard to several principles OF egg
cooking, says the New York Press.
The pan should be thin, as quick cook
ing is OF prime importance.
To make a tender omelet, the number
of yoIks should exceed the number of
whites.
Up to Is40 the number of yoIks was
twice that of the whites, but more whites
now enter into French recipes. But II
there is too much white left, no art can
prevent an omelet from being too hard.
The egg omelet must net be liquid al
al, but barely set
In serving a spoon or fork must be
used. A knife ruins its texture.
For a French omelet break the eggs
into a bowl, add as many teaspoonfuls
OF water as there are eggs, counting TWO
yolks as one egg. For each three eggs
add one-Quarter of 4 teaspoonful OF salt
and a dash of pepper. II six eggs are
used, three whites are better than four
where quality, not quantity, is preferred.
Beat them with a fork until spoonful
can be lifted as if it were liquid without
clinging to the rest.
Put in a tablespoonful Of butter and
melt in a thin pan, strain the egg into II,
set on a hot part of the range and as
soon as the edges begin to cook, separate
them from the edge of the pan with a
thin knife or spatula; slowly, and gently,
rock the pan back and forth so that the
uncooked portion runs down next the pan,

until the whole is creamy. Now commence
the art of rolling. On the side next the
handle start the roll, curling it over gent
ly and letting the pan rest a moment on
each curve long enough to brown 1t light
ly, and turn on a hot platter to be eaten
without standing and losing a degree of
heat Cool omelet is ruined omelet
For a three-egg omelet the formula Is
two eggs, two yolks OF eggs, three table,
spoonfuls of milk or one tablespoonful of
water, pepper and salt.
Poached EEEs.
In poaching eggs the bottom OF the
skillet should be brushed with oil, then
partly fill with boiling water that Is not
allowed to boil or simmer after slipping
the egg in from the cup into which 1t
has been first broken. II the water Is
slightly salted and a teaspoonful OF vine
gar added, II is an improvement. The
eggs must not be old or the white will
dissolve. Forty-eight hours after laying
gives the best results in poaching. Let
the yollS be nearly covered and do not
disturb until the albumen has set Re
move with a skinner.
This is in a five-five-five formula Five
eggs we'll beaten; add five tablespoonfuls
each of milk and grated cheese, season
with pepper and salt, pour into a hot thin
pan well oiled with butter and stir until
the mixture is creamy and thick. This
is q nice dish to prepare and serve at the
table with a small chafing dish, as the
hotter il is the better the dish.

FASHIONS IN
ARTIFICIAL FLOWERS

Artificial flowers have their place on
dress as perhaps never before. But they
represent 4 particular order of artificial
flowers-blossoms in satin, velvet and
plush in fact something quite new. Yet
flowers in velvet and satin are not in
themselves new. they came to us redolent
OF the boudoir O. ladies OF the eighteenth
century; but they are new as worn and
fabricated. AS TO the velvet and satin
roses and lilies, no dressmaker could do
without them at the present time. Single
corsage sometimes displays two or three
in different places. They nestle in folds
of embryo paniers. and show themselves
as headings in masses of skirt drapery.
A big blossom has its place by right at
the waist. and when a sash is worn the
ends generally seem to fall from il. But
flowers in velvet, satin or plush are not
the only artificial ones now having to
do with dress. There is the hand-painted
flower in muslin or tulle. more fashionable
than any other. and also more expensive.
Professional and amateur artists exercise
their skill upon these bits of muslin, and
sometimes with the happiest effect.
The sac a main in velvet or broche has
undergone of late various notifications
as to form. At first its style seemed to be-
long more particularly to old ladies than
tc young ones, and now it is the neces-
sary dress adjunct for persons of al ages.
The most fashionable material for the
sac a main is broche a la Pompadour.
that is colored flowers covering a black
silk or satin ground. And will it be be-
lieved that the most fashionable form
is that which Stimulates a panier such as
Nine. de Pompadour herself wore?
A new invention. which is at the same
time a novel mode of ornamenting a
corsage. is a tiny tube of crystal made
to contain water, but so made as not to
allow the water being split. 1t is fas-
tened to the dress with a clip. and al
lows the flower It holds-in this case
not an artificial one-to remain odorous
and blooming for hours, even in a heat
ed ballroom.
The latest as well as the most expen-
sive novelty in shoes is what is known
as Greek sandals. They are in ivory
colored kid or satin, and are ornapented
with beetles that are supposed to repre-
sent real gems, such as amethysts and
emeralds. They are also supposed to
be worn without stockings. This style
certainly comes to us with flavor Of
the harem about it.

TIME-SAVING HINTS FOR
BUSY HOUSEKEEPERS

To remove odor OF fish or onions from
the frying pan put in vinegar and heat
until scalding, and then wash out.
A baker says that a cupful of liquid
qeast is equivalent TO half a compressed
yeast cake or whole dry yeast cake.
When ironing. sprinkle orris root under
the ironing sheet. This imparts a deli
ing.
To prevent onions from sproutinE let
the onions dry. heat a poker red hot and
with it singe the roots. Put in a dry
place and you will find they will keep
perfectly.
Drive a nail through an empty spool.
1t will make a handy peg to hang damp
towels on. The spool will not tear or
rust the article hung upon it.
II you are mixing a cake with a
wooden spoon. beat the mixture with the
back of the spoon. 1t is far easier and
time.
For creaming butter or butter and
sugar a perfOrted spoon will be found
more convenient than a fork or the hand.
Cream cheese into which chile sauce is
mixed. rolled into balls and served with
lettuce salad, is a most piquant relish.
There is economy in buying soap in
quantities; naturally. the longer it stands
the dryer it is when used ana the further
il goes.
On the tread Of your sewing machine
fasten a piece of carpet. Brussels carpet
is best. You will find it much more COM

BOON TO THE
HOME DRESSMAKER

In these days when masquerading is SO
! much the vogue, Dress Design. the latest
volume of the Macmillan Artistic Crafts
Series, will be a boon indeed.
Between the attractive green covers OF
a very well-made book is a resume OF
dress, beginning with our cave-dwelling
ancestors and coming down as late as the
sixties, when. presumably, the perspective
| becomes too close for historical treat
ment.
The arrangement by periods. every
portion Of the costume, hats. shoes and
hair-dressing. as well as clothes being de-
scribed. and the large number OF illustra-
tions make the book of the greatest
value for staging theatricals.
A series of patterns. drawn to scale. Of
a large number of garments will be OF
the greatest service in reproducing the
models.
While the appeal of the book is chiefly
to drcssmakers and artists and mas
queraders, as suggested. it is very inter
esting as a study not only of dress but
Of human nature.
The sex which loves to scofr at fem
inine desire for personal adornment will
find as elaborate styles for men as for
wonderland those not so very long ago.
1t is interesting to note the reappear-
ance of certain forms, from time to time,
as though there were but a given num-
Der of forms which were used in rota
ton.
The ready-made compilations of today
are but such temperance.
Makeup at this time" says the
author. Talbot Hughes, speaking Of the
time of Elizabeth, became very appar-
ent on the faces, for Bishop Hall CEN
sured the fashion in a choice sermon,
saying. Hear this. We plaster-faced
Jezebels, God will one day wash them
with fire and brimstone"
Perhaps. though, nothing so bizarre IN
the name of fashion has been perpetrated
as the present craze for colored trans
formations.
At a recent smart party in London the
hostess and many of her guests appeared
coiffed in blue. purple and green head
gear.
Mr.. Hughes also brings out the inIu-
ence of the feminine on the masculine
fashions.
1T may be noted that feminine FASH
ion. as it assumes new characters and
proportions, affects the style of the male
clothes in the same way as, when a high
or pointed headdress comes in, the male
hat also increases its size: the same
with curved or angular designs, fun or
tight sleeves"
