This fashionable tailored suit was
one of many seen in the MADE in
America fashion fete at New York a
few days ago. Mary Hawkesworth,
the well-known society dancer who
has delighted Newport society during
the past season, declares it to be one
of the smartest suits she has seen
from the house of an American design
er. The suit is of green cloth trimmed
with krimmer, which is the old-fash-
Toned gray astrachan, with hood and
muff to match.

Wash fresh cucumber and cut

slowly till entire mass is soft and
pulpy, then strain through double
fold of cheesecloth and set away to
cool. Next mix two ounces Sf almond
oil with half an ounce spermaceti

THINGS WORTH KNOWING.

When making extra strings for
baby's bonnet, make them in one
piece. Sew a piece of tape across the
corner where one sews on the strings.
Slip through tape and tie under chin.
Windsor ties are nice, as they laun-
der fine. When soiled they can be
slipped out and there is no sewing or
pinning when replacing them.
When comforts for beds are partly
well worn, the cloth often splits ZENITH
wise. To avoid that, lay a width of
cheesecloth, or other thin goods cross
wise over the cotton, before putting on
outside. 1t does not make them hard
or heavy.
Good and inexpensive bluing: Five
cents worth of PruSsian blue, IL
cents worth oXalic acid; dissolve in
one quart boiling water and put in
pan or bottle; it is then ready for use.
When cooking cake icing with milk
or anything that is bad to scorch,
sprinkle small handful of salt on stove
lid.
Good way to cover comforters: En-
close the batting in mosquito netting,
lacking it here and there to prevent
punching up. Slip comforter thus
made into the outside cover and tack
in place. When soiled it is easy to
open one end and take out the inside.
If this method is once used the old
way will be abandoned.
To make the legs of a chicken or
turkey as tender as the other parts
take a skewer and, before cutting
feet from knee joint, pull the tendons
out at knee joint and then, with
quick, strong jerk, you can loosen
tendon from thigh and pull out from
the other meat. It's these tough ten
dons that make the whole leg an in
ferior portion. Also do not throw
away the feet. Scald and remove out
side skin and cook with giblets. They
add much nourishment to the soup.
