Second Model Intended for the
Slender Girl.

The camisole illustrated is of flesh
colored crepe de chine, embroidered in
self-cOlor and trimmed with narrow

delicate shade may be used, as null,

and IS to 20 inches wide will make
one cover. The latter width is for a
stout figure. A very tall person might
use a yard and an eighth for the
length, but one yard will be enough
for the average woman. The material
is doubled, laid fiat and a crescent Ia
ken out at the fold, creating an oval
opening for the head to pass through.
A second crescent is taken out at the
raw edges and the ends turned up to
form hem. The long ends are fin,
ished with a narrow hem and trimmed
to suit the sewers fancy; also the
neck. A frill of lace is a pretty finish,

broider, the front of the cover may he

Lastly, the hens are run through
with an elastic fitted at the ends
with hooks and eyes or snappers.
The camisole IS slipped over the
head and the elastic brought to the
front from the back. Then the front
elastics are taken around to the back
and closed there in like fashion to the
front. A simple cover of China silk

from chiffon, though anything as thin

Much good bread Is wasted on &C.

be easily prevented by wrapping the
unusued portion Of the loaf in clean

comes with some kinds Of bread.

The fresh bread is so moist that like

BUTTONS WAR ON COLDS
DISAPPEARANCE Of the Oecollete Dress
for Day 10 Not Altogether
Bad Thing.

Decollete dress for day wear has
gone right out of fashion-and the
pneumonia blouse is doomed.
This is one of the sensible changes
which have been made by Nine. La
Mode in wartime.
Fright up to the chin is now the
rule for collars" said the representa-
tive of Paris firm of modistes.
"Blouses that leave the chest ex-
posed will soon disappear entirely SO
far as women who have any regard for
fashion are concerned.
"The decollete blouse and corsage
of the day gown have until quite re.
Gently been carried to the extreme.
Not only has the v been worn as
plainly as in evening dress. but in
some cases it has extended for street

RELIsHEs FOR SPRING
TEMPTING MENU NEEDED ~
THIS SEASON.
Condiments Liked in the Winter na'o
Lost Their Savor and others
Must Be Provided to TAKE
Their Places.

Springtime appetites should be as
fresh and unspOiled as is the spring
itself. But too often the spring appe-
tite is dulled and it is only by dlnt
az constant care the housekeeper OF
cook is able to provide a tempting
diet on the spring table.
Winter fare pals at this season.
And the usual winter condiments and
appetizers fail to work successfully.
Mustard pickles, chowchow, cole slaW'
oliyes-all have lost their winter trick
of whetting the appetite. Celery mas
literally lost most of its crispness and
sweetness by spring. New appetizers
and relshes must be relied on to give
point 10 the daily diet.
Cucumbers are one reliable spring
relish. There is, of course, much OBJ
lection to cucumbers on the ground
of indigestibility. They are usually
ndigestible-that nobody can deny.
But some people do not find them so,
and eat them without fear. So If
they are not taboo on your table,
make use of them. 1t is good plan
to slice them thinly and place them
in iced water in the refrigerator for
an hour before using them. Then
dress them with oil and vinegar and
serve them with fish. Or dice them
and mix them with diced green pep
per and celery, with mayonnaise, in
cups of lettuce leaves as salad.
Tomatoes, too, can be made to serve
admirably the purpose Of whetting
the appetite. A very good appetizer
with which to begin dinner is round
of firm tomato, half an inch thick, on
which is placed pepper, celery or Gu
cumber, mixed with mayonnaise
dressing. Sliced tomatoes, iced in the
refrigerator, are another good dinner
accompaniment. They may be served
with fish or with the meat course.
And of course all sorts Of tomato
salads are delicious in spring. And
good sherbet for dinner can be made
of equal parts Of strained tomato
juice and meat stock, to which little
softened gelatin has been added.
frozen in an ice cream freezer to
sherbet consistency.
Radishes should always be served
very cold Clean them and chill them
thoroughly in iced water and then
cut in attractive shapes. Make roses.
sometimes. by cutting back the red
skin in points. Again, slash the rad
ishes from the pointed end down
three or four times. Slice radishes
and serve with other vegetables on
lettuce leaves for salad.
Sweet green peppers are as useful
in warm weather as in cold. Chop
them and mix with an equal amount
Of celery chopped fine, and moisten
with mayonnaise Serve spoonful
on lettuce leaf for salad, or serve
a spoonful on slice of thin, crisp
toast in the form of a canape for an
appetizing beginning to dinner. Stuff
a pepper, one end of which has been
removed, with cream cheese and
chopped nuts and slice to serve with
salad.
