The recount of the vote in the Fifth

tween Din w. b. Conway, RepuoI1-

IN the case OF the Fifth ward, there

there had been no election and that
vacancy existed. The council then
filed the vacancy by electing Dr.. w.
B. Conaway, as previously by the CITY

The vote on recount nthe Fifth
ward stood 271 for Conway and III
for Brown. In the Second ward the
recounted vote stood 243 for smith
and 241 for Thompson. 1t was later

that are to be popular. the rufies of silk

who uses both in separate places.

Today lingerie which completes the
trousseau OF the aspiring bride is snowy.
Our grandmothers and even our mothers
thought that all these garments must be
handmade, and they spent a great deal
OF time in dainty and fancy stitches on
the finest linens and cottons. Not so
with the modern girl, for nothing is
further from her mind than that she
should waste precious time in fancy
stitches that might be better spent in
outdoor sports or in the festivities OF life.
She does, however. insist that this part
Of her wardrobe be in keeping with her
other clothes and generally prefers to
make the necessary pieces at home to
buying them ready TO wear, because she
can get very nice material and trim
ming for much less than she could get
the same quality made up. Another thing
Of which the modern girl is convinced IS
that the fewer underclothes that she can
get along with the better. Her grand
mothers linen chest often contained
enough lingerie to last her good part
Of her life. The girl Of today knows how
unwise 1t is to provide any such quantity
Of undergarments. She knows that their
shaping and even the material from
which they are made change with the
reason she has as little underwear at one
time as she can conveniently get along
with.
Silk or a fine quality of cotton goods is
selected for the pieces in the modern
trousseau, and many Of the daintiest gar
ments are absolutely without trimming
other than a buttonhole scallop at the
edge. As for hand-sewed seams, they
are never thought of. for the machine
with its many appliances can turn out
work that favorably compares with the
finest hand-sewing.
Petticoat and Bed Jacket of Taffetn
In the central figure is shown a taffeta
silk petticoat and bed jacket in lovely
shade Of mauve, trimmed with circular
ruffles of chiffon in a matching shade.
The top Of the skirt is made from two
lengths OF taffeta twenty-seven inches
wide. It is shaped to the figure over the
hips by seams and at the lower edge Is
finished with a double circular flounce of
chiffon, Joined to the lower edge Of the
taffeta skirt under a fold Of the material.
At the front is a bow of the taffeta cut
on the straight Of the goods. The Jacket
Is made from the taffeta, and is length
ened with circ dlar nounces Of chiffon
that fall gracefully over the taffeta petit
coat. The ruffs at the neck and the
sleeves are also Of the chiffon. The lat
ter are set in a unique way that makes
the sack dainty and pretty. Bands and
stiff little bows Of the taffeta are arrang-
ed to hold the fullness at the wrist in
place, and they let the chiffon fall in a
soft ruffie' over the hands. A stif bow Of
taffeta similar to that on the skirt Is
used TO effect the closing of the jacket at
the front The skirt and sack will be
equally pretty carried out in other colors
and IL preferred, crepe de chine may be
substituted for the taffeta

Of the garment The lower portion con-
sists of pantaloons as full as those worn
by circus clowns, and gathered at the in
steps with a ribbon-run broad band of
trimming. When seen through the split
of the skirt as the dancer kneels in the
tango. they suggest the pantelettes of an
elder and more modest day. So full are
they that to wear a petticoat over them
would be like carrying Goals to New
castle This combination is not orlv
favored by the woman who tangoes. but
by the woman who gave up dancing
years ago. Both appreciate its practice

"A PAGE FOR ALL THE FAMILY
HOME CANDY MAKING

a perfect coating for your candy the
oil must be entirely incorporated in the
general mass. A little personal exper-
ience will tell the candy-maker when the
coating has been worked sufficiently. The
smoothness Of the mass and the even
color after a few trials will assure the
careful cook that the chocolate has been
properly handled.
When the chocolate Is ready. dip the
centers-nuts, creams, or whatever is
ready-one at a time.
A bonbondipper Is a great help In the
dipping. II can easily be made by the
worker since IL is nothing more than a
wire twisted into the outline of a spoon
No. IS copper wire should be used, since
it is soft enough to be easily shaped with
the fingers and heavy enough to hold all
the weight required. Take a piece four
teen incnes long and double back fve
inches: this will make a double strand Of
i've inches and leave a single piece of
four inches in length. OF the single
strand form a loop three-quarters of ian

the double strands After forming the
loop around the thumb. bring back the
two remaining inches and wind II about
the handle.
SO that it Is well covered and lift 1t out
with the dipper. Remove any surplus
chocolate by pulling II over the edge Of
the dish and ;et II drop squarely upon the
oilcloth or oiled paper upon which 1t is

slip when dropped. II it slips a thin. ir-

Chocolates should be dried in a cool
room, but not in a refrigerator. When
cold the coating should be firm to the
touch. II 1t becomes sticky, even when
brought into a warm room. II is proof
that the oil was not all worked into the
mass.
The chocolate for dipping is prepared
the same as that for coating, except that
the melted chocolate has not been worked
so as to incorporate the OIL Into ,choco-
late SO prepared dip candies which are to
be covered with chocolate and then
rolled in nuts or cocoanut For such
candies a little sickness in the chocolate
Is desirable to hold the second coating.
Numberiess uses for chocolate coating
and dipping are known to all candy cooks.
Some new uses, however, are particularly
alluring.
