Easter Charity,

as Your Easter gown Finished" said
the girl in sand broadcloth to the de-
mure young person in gray poplin-
They had just como from midweek YES
pers, SO probably this dropping back
into the vanities Of life was excusable.
The young person In gray smiled
eomplacently "Oh, I'm not having an
Easter frock this year. OF course,
mother is getting me some spring
clothes. but I have given my Easter
dress to little stenographer in faith
er's office. Would YOU believe 1t, she
has never known what it was to have a
whole Easter costume. She might have
new pair of gloves one year and a
hat the next but everything. from
shoes to hat-that was quite impossl-
BILE.
Not that / care" the young person
In gray Interrupted herself, blushing
slightly. You know it isn't the thing
in our set to come out i'll something
new on Easter. and I don't in the least
mind giving up 4 new frock for that
day
How awful" exclaimed the other
girl, taking a peep in the mirror they
had just passed. and not looking into
the starry eyes on a level with her
own Think of working in an Office
and not having money enough to buy
decent clothes"
Yes said her companion, think OF
working 500 days in the year for an
invalid sister and 4 complaining moth
er. when all the girls around you spend
their money for pretty things. l think
she deserved an Easter dress-hat and
gloves. and all"
The girl in broadcloth commenced to
take notice We'll, 1 guess that is a
better form of penance than doing
without candy to send missionaries TO
Africa"
This girl was not really up-to-date
or she would have known that many
beautiful little charities of the most
practical sort are now saved for Easter
Sunday. Kindly young women the
the money formerly used for the Eas-
ter parade gowns to bring Easter Joy
into some home where the sunshine OF
life and sympathy seldom enters
The day for sending around flowers
to the shut-ins-a lily here, a primrose
plant ticre-has given place to more
practical labors Of love A personal in
terest is taken in each Easter charity
that is extended, and sacrifices are
made to give material and longed for
benefits to some particular individual
less fortunate than the giver
This new phase Of Easter charity is
one thing the woman in business is
largely responsible for. She has
helped to bring together the little sis
ters of the poor with the generous
daughters of the rich. And She may
well be proud of the achievement. for
the pleasure Of Easter gown and Eas-
ter flowers is nothing compared to the
JOY which never fails to come when
luxuries and blessings are shared with
those who know, little save grim ne
ccssity and barren reality.

Eat Easter Eggs.

The Easter egg is pure food. BY
easter egg" is meant the perfectly
fresh egg, now plentiful in the mar
kets. Albumen is the chief ingredi-
ent in an egg. About si2-tenths of an
egg is the white, three -tenths the yolk
and one-tenth the shell. And of the
white of an egg so per cent is water,
1917 per cent dry albumen and 4;a per
cent salts, etc.
Even more albumen is contained in
the yolk-17ls per cent. The yolk has
so much oil (2sss per cent? that it is
really an emulsion.
Eat an egg and you get blood pro-
ducers. You get food for the muscles.
You get sulphur and calcium for the
system and some iron.

silk, net, chiffon. crepe. lace and en-
broidery. Among the washables are
handkerchief linens in white, light and
dark blue. sand. gray. pink. lavender,
etc. plain and striped. Heavy linens

Pretty Handbag

/ saw knitted, beaded bag which the
owner told 'pe was at least twenty-five
years old II was SO pretty but SO sim
pie that any girl who knows how to do
the plain knitting stitch could make
one like it.
This bag was made entirely in black.
but one could use a colored silk with
white beads. or beads in gold or silver.
One needs a spool OF knitting silk, a
pair of steel needles and several
lunches of beads. To make the bag,
cast on say one hundred. and eight
stitches. and knit back the second row
plain Break Off the silk and thread on
about three feet of beads, choosing
those that go through the silk easily
but not loosely. It the holes are too
small. the beads will wear the silk
while. If loose, they will stand away
from the silk. Tie the spool end and
the loose end of the silk together at
end of second row and start the third
row, Knit off the first two stitches and
then knit bead into every stitch all
the way across except the two end
stitches. These are plain.
The fourth row is knitted plain all
the way back.
The tifth row: Knit in the beads as
the third row, and come back plain.
Then go on knitting alternate plain
and beaded rows until the piece of
work is half its width. It is Impossible
to give the exact number of inches, be-
cause some knit tighter than others, but
when the piece is folded once it should
be q square. Also, do not forget to
leave two plain stitches at each end
and two rows of plain knitting at the
beginning and the end of the work.
This plain. narrow strip makes the
seams twhen the bag is sewed up)
strong, flat and firm. The bottom can
be finished with fringe of beads.
Cut the lining to fit, and catch it in
with the bag seams This will keen

Eggs {: Ia Rome.

The old Romans began their dinner
with eggs. and ended with fruits call
"a '.mala-" In this way originated the
phrase From the egg to the apple
Latin. "ab ovo usque ad mala-"
Formerly eggs were first boiled: the
Soik taken out, mixed with spices and
put back. and the eggs then were
roasted on a "spit'-that is, on a
1oasting fork, or perhaps an oven
hook. When thus roasted the eggs re-
quired constant attention; hence the
phrase. Il have eggs on the spit" Il
am busy).
The great art of roasting eggs is to
keep them turning constantly. Ex-
perience only can tell just when the
egg is cooked to a turn. Teach your
grandmother to roast eggs is thus the
apt rebuke to the tn oughtless young
sters who attempt to instruct their
elders and superfors-

Special Correspondence Of The Star.

NEW YORK, April e.-One of the
great houses on 5th avenue that caters
to the children of the rich has brought
out distinctive costumes for young
sters that present many new features.
Some are definitely taken from old
pictures and look as though they may
have been done by artists who revolu-
tionize juvenile clothes in their day.
1t is difficult to tell in the present
scramble for youthfulness in dress, as
well as thoughts. manners and actlNl-
ties, whether the youngsters inspire
the clothes for their elders or the other
way around. There is such j striking
similarity between the costume of q
girl of eight and woman of forty

What to Do With Cheese.

The housewife who keeps a half

the eggs to q stiff froth. add yoIks and
seasoning: when blended add the
cheese. and finally the milk. Pour the
mixture into six well buttered rame-
quins. sprinkle with sifted crumbs and
bake for eight minutes.
