| PANTRY

New cabbages are plentiful and
cheap. People who do not go in for
the more expensive salads should try
them, and those who have had plenty
of lettuce, cucumber. romaine and other
winter salads will relish the cabbage
for a change. This member of the
mustard tribe Is more easily dfgested
raw than cooked. unless the cooking
be very deftly done.
Cabbage contains a volatile oil. rich
in hydrogen and sulphur. which are
wasted In careless cooking. But that
Is another story.
To Prepare the Cabbage.
Having chosen a firm head of cab
bage, removed the outer leaves and
halved 1t. one soaks 1t in cold water
for an hour Then the water is shaken
out and it is very finely shredded and
cut into short lengths. Then 1t Is ready
for the dressing, which may be one of
two sorts. the simple French dressing
or the one made of egg and milk. 1t
may be served after the meat course or
with it. some prefer. In either case
it must be served cold.
Egg-and-Milk Dressing.
To make the eSg-and-milk dressing
beat one egg and add mixture of one
tablespoon OF -four. one teaspoon of
sugar. a quarter teaspoon of mustard.
Pour a cup Of milk into the whole, put
It on the fire and bring 1t to a boil
When II has boiled add a half cup of
vinegar. and salt to taste. Stand aside
to cool. At serving time mix il with
the dried. cold. shredded cabbage.
For this everything used. including
the bowl and the wooden fork, should
be cold. These are the proportions:
After rubbing the bowl with half an
onion or half Glove or garlic, put In
half a teaspoon of salt and a saltspoon
of pepper, and add gradually. while
rubbing with a wooden fork, six table
spoons of olive oil. When the salt is
dissolved. add slowly q tablespoon of
vinegar (plain or tarragon) or lemon
juice. Beat we'll, and 1t Is ready to
pour over tho cold, shredded dried cab
bage or any other green salad.

Skirts Revolutionary.
to have been the dictum for skirts. Not
content with expanding suddenly from
a scant yard to five or six, they are
ruffied, f1ounced. cut into petals and
oddly overlapping points. They are
draped in various and original fash
ions, caught up suddenly into point IN
the middle of the back. or tucked up
underneath all around over lace pet
ticoat. Sometimes they are opened up
the front over ruff1es of net and lace,
and their edges ruched or pearl TRIM
med. They have pointed. f1aring tunics
over wide underskirts, and these tunes
are elaborated with plated rumes
headed by rows of cording. or the edges
are scalloped or slashed into points.
The wide crinoline effects are mass

around them in rows of satin ribbon.

of two shades of tulle in wide stripes.

same idea is carried out in stripes of
taffeta alternated with chiffon. and
then the taffeta may be shocked at the
waist for some distance down.
Bodices Are Simple.
With these elaborate petticoats we
wear quite simple little bodices, and
this arrangement is in accordance with
earlier ideas. We are apt to think
that the civil war styles, to which
many of the modes of today are in
debted for inspiration, consisted Of
only one type of skirt-the founced or
ruffled. A glance at an old ladies' book
of the period will show us that there
were many other sorts of draped and
overskirted affairs, with trimmings OF
all kinds in great profusion concen-
trated principally upon the petticoat
part of the gown.
The sketch shows a new adaptation
of the idea that skirts shall be elabo-
rate and bodices plain. The little tulle
top is simplicity itself. while the skirt

E6vcIal espondence OF The Star.
NEW YORK. June 15.-It is worthy
of note that skirts are usurping first
place in Importance. Not only was the
greatest change of the seasons fash
ions apparent in them. but they age
also receiving far more attention In
details than bodices.
There are no very startling changes
to be recorded in the top part of gowns.
Blouses have developed high collars
and frills. but the corsages of after
noon and evening gowns are little al
tered. The folded. surplice-fronted
silk bodice with the transparent sleeves
is not an innovation. although it is one
of the seasons most successful models
for afternoon wear. Evening corsages
are a little less decollete, and many
have small sleeves. or the new under

Corduroy should not be ironed. 1t Is
known as cotton velvet: as a matter
of fact. it is all cotton. Therefore boil
ing water will not harm it. IT. how
ever, the water is hard, 1t may cause
the cotton to thicken; hence, the ad-
dition of the borax. But the ch1ef
cause of failure lies in wringtng the
material This will not only destroy
the nap, but will make the garment
streaky-as many women have discov-
cred to their sorrow.
Corduroy can be so laundered that it
will look like new until worn out.
Another fabric that requires careful
laundering is voile. This season 1t is
seen in many pretty designs. which are
worked out in cordlike thread upon
fine. sheer surface. The beauty of
the material consists of the contrast
between design and the background,
but careless washing may destroy this.
Never rub soap directly on the goods,
because this will thicken the threads
of the background and so soften and
flatten the design that it will almost
disappear; in which event, of course,
the beauty will be lost.
Wolfe should be soaked in soapsuds,
washed in warm suds and rinsed twice

Hemment first met Chief Reilly
when he went to Africa with Paul
Rainey to photograph elephants and
lions for the moving pictures. Ayear
ago last October Reilly came to New
York to visit his sister in Flushing,
l.. |.
A mighty man is Reilly. He fights
! lions single-handed and gets away
], with them. When Theodore Roose-
Welt made his African hunting trip he
became q warm friend Of the big
! Long Islander, whom the natives of
his province treat as if he were the
real ruler of British Uganda.
Reilly's letter was written on jan
uary 12. It's long way from
Uganda to New York. Hemment has
not heard anything further from the
chief. He is pretty sure that if Reil-
ly and his men win the next skir-
mish mentioned in the letter he will
learn of it in due time through an
other letter from his friend. If he
does not hear, says Hemment, it will
be because another intrepid Irishman
has earned the Victoria Cross with
out knowing it and the name of w.
J. Reilly has been added to the long
lists published weekly in London un-
der the caption: "The Roll of Honor"
A scrimmage of the sort described
by Reilly would hardly get line in
the war news. But Reilly's men are
fighting with the same zeal and the
same deadly purpose as in bloody
Flanders and Poland. 1t may be
long before the news of the battle
reaches New York. 1t depends on
Reilly.
German East Africa joins Uganda
and when the King. Kaiser, President
and Car let loose the dogs of war in
Europe it was not long before they
were barking over in Africa. By wav
of Mombasa and Zanzibar the news
spread to the interior and erstwhile
friends were bidden to be up and at
each others throats.
The military force of the Uganda
comprises the force of Askaris the
chief has under him. Policemen is
the name in English for the Askaris,
800 of them, all of them of the tribe
of Uganda, who wear their puttees on
their bare legs.
But Reilly had taught them to fight
hand and foot as they do in Ulster.
He has taught them to use guns and
revolvers, and banished from their
hearts fear of the big game of the
jungle and veldt. The Germans have
real soldiers over there, but Chief
Reilly wasn't bit dismayed. Over
night he made soldiers of his police
men and the next day marched forty
miles to meet the foe on his own ter
ritory.
It wasn't much of a fight. as Reil-
ly might put it. Not much of one
as we hear of battles in bloody Flan-
ders and Poland. Only twelve hours
Of fighting in the trenches. Only 100
Germans killed and scores wounded.
Only seven casualties on the side of

now working on the plans for the
building. DR.. Winchester says he
has not decided what medium to
employ in the construction but he
favors concrete or brick.
The hospital said DR.. Winches-
ter, will be 32xSO feet, with two
lloors. The first floor will be about
three feet below the level of the
sa'ound. On this floor will be the
offices and perhaps the operating
rooms. The wards will be on the
second. floor, 20 rooms.
The architects are instructed TO
design the building along lines of
the most modern hospitals. DR.. Win
chester says that work will probably
not begin before spring. The new
building will be erected on the site
now occupied by the Winchester
hospital.

As wonderful as the growth of

if any place in the west eXemplilies
the remarkable strides in motor car
industry in greater degree than in

Union county was classed as a cow
country and Clayton as a cow

steaders were classed as the minor

ticular brand in one year with 10
per cent of them going to the rural
districts, is conclusive evidence that
Uion county has many farmers and
that said farmers are prospering,
Mr.. Wikon showed The News re-
