MISS JEAN WEBSTER.

book with purpose Is Miss Jean
Webster's charming story, Daddy
I.onglegs." Since it was published it
has gone into many editions. The tale
has been put on the stage in play
that is one Of the successes of the sea
son. Daddy Longlegs may do as
much for the lonely little orphan child
of the public institution as Oliver
Twist did for English workhouse chill
dren.
The book has aroused public interest
In the lot of the lonely and homeless
children of the asylums. and many well
to do people, inspired by the example
OF the Daddy Longlegs Of the story.
have come forward to adopt or bear
the burden of expense of educating
one or more orphans. 1t is said a
wealthy New York bachelor has thus
adopted forty children. The New Yorl.
State Charities Aid society found SO
many requests for orphans for adop-
ton coming in after the publication of
the book that they appointed special
committee to look after the applica-
tions. Miss Vida Mary Clark, n warm
hearted woman with experience In
children's work, was appointed to take
charge OF the work.
Miss Webster. the author of the
book. Is Vnssar graduate. and college
girls have been particularly taken with
the Daddy Longlegs idea. In fact,
playing fairy godmother to an orphan
child has assumed the proportions of
a fad, and. thanks to Miss Webster,
the lot of little "Orphant Annie" is
likely to be made a happy one.
Miss Webster Is a grandniece of
Mark Twain and has the sense of hui
NOR which seems to be family gift
She has always been interested In
philanthropic work and has written a
number of books, most of them deal
ing with college girl life. She has lived
In Italy for n number Of years, but now
resides In New York city.

Olive Oil In Cookery.

In the making of dark cakes, such as
fruit. spice cake or gingerbread, and
In puddings olive oil can be USED in
stead OF butter. In making cakes the
olive oil and sugar are stirred to a
cream as Is the case when butter Is
used ana the other ingredients added
in the ordinary way.
For gr"asing baking tins OF pudding
dishes olive OH can he more econom-
ically used than butter. as the small
amount needed can he poured from
the bottle directly into the dish and
then applied with Il bit of tissue paper
Crust is not so liable to burn as when
butter Is used, and the flavor of the
crust Is much more delicious than when
lard Is adopted for this purpose.
Olling the crust of bread or rolls just
before taking from the oven gives an
additional richness both OF color and
taste.

Game For Boy Scouts.

The game of spot your staves' is
played in the same way as an ordinary
paper chase. except that the hares are
provided with number of small circu-
lar gummed labels, such as are used by
shopkeepers for marking the prices on
goods.
Every time the trail Is dropped not
more than two labels should be drop
ped with it. AS soon as the trail is
picked up by a hound he blows his
whistle. The other hounds immediate
ly proceed to the spot and search for
the two labels. When found they
should be stuck on to the finders staff,
and ut the end of the chase the scout
with the most labels wins.
This tends to keep up the interest OF
the smaller scOnts. who otherwise
would soon be inclined to lag behind

There Is q wide use of metal laces
Metal laces are used extensively for
bodices and sleeves.
TwotOne net tops are among the
most fashionable l0ces.
Net top lace with hand run design
is likely to be much used.
Costumes of white net or lace are
trimmed with ornaments of jet
Tuile and lace are extensively used
both for day and evening robes.
A very dashing novelty is gold
lace with the Hover pattern in so light
silver as TO look white.
Overdrcsses of lace hanging straight
from the shoulders and fringed with
beads are among the new fashion fea
lures.
Skirts Of lace. tulle or chiffon in
ivory. white. black or creamy tones
may be worn with the same black vel

Culinary
Notes


Supper is the meal ut which the ca
pable housekeepcr may show her abili-
ty in using up leftovers. IL she is clev-
er she may provide appetizing sur
prises, which generally do not require
much material or time. says the Unit
ed States department of agriculture
It is mistaken economy to add a good
deal of expensive materials in order
to use up things of little value or to
attempt fussy dishes that require long
preparation. AS far as everyday sup.
per is concerned. ii is usually good
policy to avoid elaborate dishes and lei
pended for such things go to the main
meal of the day. This is especially
true where the women of the family
do all the work
In many families supper includes one
hot dish and second course of pre-
serves and cocoa. Here, as at break.
fast. some kind of bread, with butter
and hot beverage. forms the basis OF
the meal. with an appetizing dish OF
eggs. meat. cheese or vegetables.
While noon dinner and supper are
the rule in most rural districts and
smaller communities, in other parts OF
the country, as every one knows, lunch
and evening dinner take their place, as
is inevitable where the wage earners
must be away from home all day long
In such cases what has been said about
supper applies to lunch. IL some of
the family carry their lunch away with
them, bread and butter again form the
usual basis of the meal. with cold
meat, hard boiled eggs or some other
appetizing as well as nutritious food
and perhaps fruit and cake to com
plete and vary it.

"The secretary" says the CORE
spondent addressed me in 'Ameri-
can, as he was convinced that no one
but an American was likely to visit
the palace at the present time. No
European had been there for the last
three months. the latest tourists to
have called having been a party from
Cooks In the early part of August.
These tourists. learned, belonged to
the belligerents and soon began to
quarrel, Tney continued their argu.
ment throughout their visit to the
paiace and came to blows when they
reached the little arbitration room
The secretary told me he was obliged
10 summon the other members of the
stan to separate the fighting tourists" I"
The secretary conducted the visitor
to the Hall OF Justice, the walls of
which are adorned with the pictures
OF the heads OF states who took part

Desserts Are an Economy.

When no dessert is provided great
er quantity of meat and vegetables
must be eaten to satisfy the demands
of nature. For some this is all right.
but for the majority of people certain
amount of sugar and starch is neces-
sary in the food. Children should not
be deprived of this kind of food. 1t is
economical to provide a dessert even
If simple one.
In arranging for dinner. plan a
light dessert when the rest of the meal
Is to be substantial. When the main
part Of the dinner Is to be light let the
dessert be hot and substantial.
For example, if the first part of the
meal consists of cold meat and vegeta.
bles serve hot apple pudding for des-
sert.
A good one can be made of q pint OF
-four. prepared as for cream OF tartar

ed and quartered apples. then steamed

the biscuit dough and cooked for about
twenty minutes louger.
No sauce will be needed with this

SELvAGE RUGS.
Handsome Floor Coverings That Are
Easily Made and Cost Little.

When tailors make mems suits they
nrst cut selvages from the materials
used. These selvages make much bet
ter rugs than ordinary carpet rags
when woven in the usual manner, ana
they are warm and rich looking. espe,
cinlly ii dark colored warp Is used,
says the Mothers Magazine. Another
advantage III favor of selvages Is that
they come IN long strips and require
little work in preparation for the
weaver.
In place Of sewing the rags in the
usual fashion laY the end OF one strip
Tat upon the end OF another and sew
together without doubling Taiors
usually throw away srlvages and

If you wish to make braided rugs Of

Substitute For Lard.

Pork trimmings will serve as a sub
stitute for lard In frying. These can
be obtained from your butcher The
economy lies not so much In the price
paid, for. of course. there Ia more OF,
In lard than in the same quantity Of
meat. but the food fried In It does not
absorb 50 much fat. and In that way
waste is eliminated. Then. too. the
flavor Is greatly improved. The trim
mings" give the food the flavor of ham
without the disagreeable. fatty taste
which SO often accompanies food cook
ed In lard Potatoes fried in 1t can be
eaten with pleasure. and breads and
other fried foods usually avoided can
be enjoyed when prepared with bacon

London, Jan. 2.--The British battle
ship Formidable was sunk In the
English channel with the loss, 1t Is
Aeleved, of more than 600 officers
and men. Eighty Of the crew were
yicked w by light cruiser and sew
suty more by trawler. making q
total saved Of 150. There has been
10 news OF the other 600.
The Formidable was q second line
Ghip. completed in 1902. and In about
seAe same class as the Bulwark, which
was destroyed off Sheerness. AS In
tho case of the Bulwark, the loss OF
tho ship Is of no great consequence
e. the navy's strength, since she had
outlived her usefulness in the first
tire. but the loss OF 80 many trained
officers and men il Of far greater mo-
nlent.
Although the official statement
leaves 1t undecided whether the ship
was sunk by mine or by German
submarine, there is general popular
belief that 1t is another example or
the prowess OF the German subma-
gine. Tine enemy's submarines have
been active in the channel for some
time past, marrying the British ships
which have been conducting bonn
'bsrdment OF that part OF the Belgian
coast held by the Germans. Only
through the use OF the utmost precau-
tion by the commanders of the Brit
iEh ships have their vessels been
saved from early destruction by the
aseen enemies.
The patrolling OF the channel has
aheen done by the British warsnips
acting In groups, and 1t Is probable
4ehat other vessels were near by when
the Formidable received the thrust
which sent her to the bottom. The
extremely heavy per cent Of lost
among her officers and men indi-
Gates that the rule which was put
auto effect by the admiralty following
1ho destruction OF the armored cruis-
srs Hogue, Cressy and Aboukir by a
single German submarine was obeyed
by the commanders OF these other
'vsssels-the rule which compels otl-
Or vessels to leave the crew OF u
ship doomed under such circum-
stances to their fate and save them
selves. In order that there may be
nc further unnecessary loss OF life
o. warships.
The Formidable is the twentieth
large warship lost to England since
