Using Fats in Cooking

Neither cream, lard, butter nor beef
can take the place of pork fat for
sweet potatoes. Pork fat. also gives
q tang to beets, parsnips and carrots
which cannot be duplicated in any
other way.
The waste fat from beef makes o.
better cake, a better pie-crust and
better candies than the highest priced
butterA Cookies, buildings and cakes
have savoriness SO enticing when
made of beef drippings that not even
the most delinquent appetite can say
them nay, says on exchange.
The fats, oils and greases from lamb
or veal all lend themselves to the eco
nomical housewife as a great inn
provement over costly buffers and
cheap iards for frying, broiling and
preparing food in all sorts of other
ways. One part of these fats will give
a happier flavor to fish, beans, carrots
and peas than ten times as much but
ter. Indeed, a spoonful of it will do
the work of q whole pound of butter.
Then there are the CRUDE so
called by the Jewish cooks who re-
move the fat and grease from geese
and fry it with the goose flesh into
crisp, brittle fiat cakes. The grease
from the geese and other fowl, is wide
ly used in Jewish homes. Some stu
dents think its use has much to do
with the relative absence of wasting
distempers among the people of this
ancient nation.

gloomy person / once knew: Oh
my dear, walt until you are older and
disillusioned a bit! I'm afraid 1t is
going to be a dreadful shock to you,
Anne. my dear, when you some day
have to come down to real things and
adjust yourself to commonplace
everyday life.'
There were times when 1 believed
her; when l looked forward with
dread to the loss of the world or
youth and romance which at that
time l found so altogether delightful
Then. in time. the days of romance
and dreams did, as she prophesied,
pass by. l mean that, from life sin
gularly rich in dreams and romance,
was obliged to come down. as wa
say, to realities. 1t was daily life that
l had to meet, with all it's very real
needs; and to make it the more real
had to earn my daily bread. II
was hard enough at first, and being
young and not a very wise person, l.
mourned a good deal over the change.
l took things pretty hard and yearnJ
ed for the old days of dreams and ro-
nance when life had seemed to me so
rich and wonderful. But by and by
little by little, I began to under
stand, l began to see the wonder of
the daily and the commonplace, +
began to realize that life does not,
indeed, grow less wonderful but
more wonderful. as we get closer
to it."

Blue Towels Look Well
in the Blue Bathroom

1t is a pretty conceit to have only
blue and white towels in a blue and
white bathroom. says the Buffalo
Sunday Express.
White towels with blue borders cam
always be obtained, while for, the
large and small guest towels en-
broidered edges and borders can be
employed.
Embroider the towel in white and
then go about the edges Of the ems
broidery in a tiny outline stitch of
blue or in small French knots.
The edges of the towel should be-
scalloped in white buttonholing.
Then proceed to take coarse twist
thread of blue and go about the edges
of the scalloping with a straight
stitch and a French knot, repeating
these two stitches until the end of the
scalloping is reached.
At the beginning make a French
knot, carry the thread along for an
eighth or quarter of an inch and
make another French knot; them
carry the straight thread again am
equal distance and make the next
knot.
This forms a pretty edging about
the scallop and gives novel note

Art of Walking Correctly

1t is impossible to walk we'll If the
shoulders droop. 1t Is impossible to
walk gracefully in high heel shoes.
No woman can learn to walk props
erly If her clothes are uncomfortably'
tight. In the correct position for
walking, the shoulder, hip and ankle
joints are upon line. The shoul-
ders do not stoop and the head is
held high. This may be acquired
by holding a book on the head. says
the Buffalo Sunday Times.
Each step should be free and firm
with a certain amount of buoyancy,
the feet pointed straight outward.
The ball of the foot and the heel
come down almost at the same timd
with grown people who wear heels
to their shoes. Children in spring
heel shoes come down first on the
ball of the foot. And this last walk
Is the most rhythmic, although those
who practice it are apt to carry it
too far and their step becomes more
of q hop than a glide.

Yesterday Afternoon l was one of
the fortunate guests at Mays dane
ing party. She had invited twelve
girls and twelve men for O'clock,
and 1t was after before we stopped
our attempts to master the new Paw
Iowa gavotte. Then the men in
duced Mays mother to chaperone us
to the theatre, where we enjoyed a
good comedy and rounded out a
generally good time.
The little private ballroom in Mays
home is always attractive, but you
should have seen the new frocks the
girls were wearing. The skirts were
cropped short for dancing, showing
such pretty new footwear, and they
all wore such charming tango caps,
made of light laces, and close fitting,
so that headgear would not continu-
ally annoy their dancing partners.
One of the girls wore rose satin
gown with surplice basque of silver
tissue. There were two tunics of
white craquele mesh lace with a
hand-run design of silver. which
covered the skirt and composed the
material of the long sleeves and
charming three-piece costume OF
gray pussy willow taffeta. She also
wore a gray cape with a lemon
yellow lining, and a soft. striped
radium silk with a yellow velvet
flower was used in combination with
the laces Of the skirt drapery.
l think the new loose tunics that
hang straight from bust to knees are
very youthful. They have the added
advantage Of making a short girl like
Amy look quite tall. The underdress

days after 1t is oily again. Is there
anything l could use to bring it

help. You see, the trouble is that
the oil collects at the roots and
spreads over the scalp instead of
travelling down evenly to the ends

You can reduce the enlarged
pores by rinsing the face carefully
in hot water to which a little<ben~

added and then In cold water. to
which the same fluid has also been
added. 1t will take time and pa

attention to your diet. Do not eat
greasy, rich foods, or indulge in

tables, and take olive oil at meals,

Her Hair Is Too Oily
Dear Miss Doom

Dear Miss Doom.
l am troubled with extremely oily
hair. After washing it, it is all
right for about four days. and then
1t becomes SO oily that 1t Is unman-
ageable and unsightly. Kindly tell
me how | can remedy this.
What mixture may be used to
dampen a dustless mop? Thank
you, very much. DOROTHY F.
1t is said that excessively oily
hair is usually caused by an un-
healthy condition of the system,
and that person so afflicted must
give her body proper nourishment,
to bring it to a normal state before
local applications will be effective.
An oily scalp must be shampooed
with discretion, and tar or sui
phur soap must be used, in connec-
ton with raw eggs, when cleansing
the hair.
An excellent cleaning agent con-
sists of tablespoonful of lime
water to each raw egg, the mix
ture beaten together and massaged
into the scalp. The lime water is
said to have a beneficial effect upon
the enlarged glands. Washing must
be done in warm water, after the
shampoo has been thoroughly rub
bed in Use no soap. The final
rinse should be in cold water, in
order to contract the pores.
Should the hair become heavy
with grease during the Intervening
