The millinery question Is one Of the
greatest importance II the short. stout
woman desires to present a successful
tout ensemble. There Is certainly no rea-
son why she may not be smartly. fash
ionabiy. and becomingly HATED at the
present time. because the fashionable
shapes are those best suited to her.
1t In seldom women OF this type find
their needs have been considered. So let
them take advantage Of 1t and never be
seen in anything but a pretty hat. Never
at any time must they wear a large
| shape or a hat one. The reason Is obvi-
GUS The brim of the hat will cut the
height. and anything both fiat and large
will be more fatal still.
At the same time. IL Is unnecessary to
go to the other extreme and choose a
shape ridiculously small The medium
sized Is the very best choice. such as are
worn today. The hat should be medium
In everything-medium crown, medium
brim, and trimming In moderation. A
smart turban is always becoming to a
woman Of this type. and is a model that
| seldom goes out of fashion. In fact. IT
Is always In good style, much as the toque

never nat. An ali-black hat that looks so
stunning on a tall figure should never be
worn by the short one except from neces-
sity. as In the case Of mourning. The
reason why is because the hat. being
black, the eye Is carried no farther than
the face. so that the wearer appears to
be just as tall as her face and no taller
Her height stops at the black hat.
This may be true. but dress should be
a means of Disgusting any shortcomings
of nature. and so by wearing a white or
a colored hat the eye is carried beyond
the face, with the result the wearer ap-
pears to be taller than she really is. As
height is increased, breadth decreases.

! him to sell all he had and give the
money to the poor. and take up his cross
and follow Him. and the young man was
exceedingly sorrowful. for he had much
wealth."

I'm the rose glow of an Italian twilight.
And when he had gone to his room
The -Man-Of-Wealth astonished his valet
by ordering him to go out and bring him

, the story of the conversation between
Jesus of Nazereth and the rich young
man, and when he had read IL many
times he called his servant and ordered
his clothes packed.
At the end of six years The-Man-of-
Wealth found Woman after a
long and weary search. His heart told
him that she had cared. and that she had
waited, and he found 1t was true. When
he held her hands In his he repeated the
ctory she had told him in the italian
twilight just as il had fallen on his
mind and heart, and when he was through

"But there vas something you left

The-one-woman lifted her questioning
eyes to his face. T.
You forgot to tell me that the way
which the Nazarene pointed out 10 the
rich young man is the only road to hap

WHEN COFFEE WAS
CONSIDERED TREAT

There are many stories about the early
use Of coffee. Here Is one of them:
In the year 1854, when coffee was still
almost unknown in England, Sir Henry
Blount, an Englishman. visited Turkey
and partook of the beverage there. A
German traveller introduced coffee 20
Western Europe about fifty years before
that, but strange as it may seem to the
coffee lover, Western Europe was slow
in adopting this Oriental bean.
So Sir Henry BIount wrote of some-
thing almost untested in England. He
wrote:
"The Turks have a drink, cauphe, made
of a berry as big as a small bean dried
in a furnace and beat to a powder of a
sooty color. in taste a little bitterish, that
they seethe and drink hot as may be
endured: 1t is good at all hours of the
day, but especially morning and evening,
when for that purpose they entertain
themselves two or three hours in cauphe-
houses, which in Turkey abound more
than inns and ale houses with US. 1t is
thought to be the old black broth used
SO mr Il by the Lacedemonians. 1t drieth
ill-humors in the stomach, comforteth the
brain, never causes drunkenness or any
other surfeits and is a harmless enter.
tainment Of good fellowship"

"Confidentially, believe that next to
my ambition. the real reason that ! want

anything. is that I can content my love
OF the most heart-satisfying gowns I can
think Of and yet satisfy my conscience
over their extravaganza by thinking that
must have them as duty to my pub
lic," says Christie Macdonald. the de-
mure singing star OF "Sweethearts"
Il can do this the more easily and
argue my conscience into acquiescence

In the best display of my jewels and my
taste in gowns, and II does really seem
after the opportunities that have come TO
me to study and design gowns and ma
terials that my experience would appeal
TO any woman.
1T was with mitch delight that
watched the production of 'Sweethearts'
coming into shape and could see that il
must necessarily be a beauty operetta.
II truly demanded gowns, and glorious
gowns, and from my own personal view
poit il is the more striking because in
the first act l play as a laundry maid
whose dresses are necessarily limited, but
can make a contrast in the second act

brilliant gowns Just as rapidly as the ac-
tion OF the operetta will permit"

But because / must necessarily make
concessions to my apparent poverty in
the opening act. has not meant that ]
might not study to what an extent ingenu-
ity might not bring about a gown unusual
in mode or coloring for the little maid. I
am delighted to find that the color COM
bination has been sufficiently noticeable
TO make its impression upon the early
fall designs.
'"The gowns of the second act can tell
their own story to the feminine eye. A
two-tone pale blue and gold charmeuse
is one to delight the heart of any girl
emerging from a years confinement in a
convent In another there is an arrange
ment Of drapery that cost me weary and
thoughtful hours, but have never since
regretted them. This gown consists of
silk net, shadow lace and white char
meuse. Skirt of lace with knots of pearls
and tiny punches of flowers, carrying out
the design of the lace. The waist is OF
the net with the lace underneath. Crystal
bugles and rhinestoaes form the trim
ming. An oval shaped opening permits
the, curve Of the shoulder to show
through the short sleeve. A belt Of
rhinestones and pearls with a touch OF
pale green at the belt on front of waist.

skirt; taken to both sides and formed in

When The-Man-Of-Wealth found that

SOME LITTLE HINTS
WORTH REMEMBERING

To remove the fat from broth or soup
II is not. necessary to allow il to become
cold as is usually done. Instead place
a fine wire sieve on ice, until it is thor
oughly cooled. and pour the liquid
through this. II the liquid is partially
cooled, the fat will solidify on the cold
wire, and the broth will be ready for
immediate use.
Buttering bread or cracker on which
cheese is to be toasted improves the
flavor.
BY first scalding the milk and setting
II aside to cool, a baked or boiled custard
will be perfectly smooth.
The yolk Of an egg, if placed in cup
and covered with a little cold water,
will keep for a couple OF days. The
water can easily be poured on when the
yolk is used.
The simplest way to rid brown sugar
of Jumps is TO put it in bowl over hot
water for a few moments. This softens
the sugar so the Jumps may be quickly
rubbed out.
A good mixture to set color in cotton
materials is one tablespoonful of tur-
pentine, a handful of salt and a pail of
cold water.
The Washington herald., 1914-01-04
For Turning n Mattress.

Make two or three straps Of some strong
material and sew at intervals to the side
Of the mattress. II will be much easier
to get hold of.
