About New Wells

ONE of the most attractive and
 charming of summer fads evident ly has had some influence on the fash ioning of the millinery for the early autumn. During the season at the resorts and occasionally in town will wander a dainty little figure clad in newest raiment, and over her dainty trig little hat will float a veil that very much reminds one of the veil on wid- ow's hat. For, frankly, 1t never was intended to cover the face.
 One seen recently was of a beautiful shade of purple. And, by the way, have you ever noticed that, like the check suits in the spring and fall. pur- pie, too. makes a semiannual appear ance? Some are of chiffon; others are of the more transparent mesh, with a deep band of the chiffon all around the large veil's edge. Many colors are seen. Most of these long veils are handled cleverly by the modish girl, and 1t probably is just this very cleverness that has induced the milliners to pro- duce hats for early fall that show a veil attachment that in some cases al- ready Is arranged. One adorable little affair that just has arrived from Paris shows a long gray veil that is weighted down with a long silken tassel of the same color. This particular veil, how ever, is hung loosely. to be adjusted to suit the mood of the wearer.' Some reach even to the hem of the skirt
 Other veils are weighted with fur band, for the band of fur that holds the veil in place around milady's neck looks as if it had important woxk to perform, as it is at least five inches wide, and milady will have to hold her chin up in quite a naughty manner If she does not intend to hide it entirely within the ample circumference.
 Speaking of turbans, a variation of the bandeau with the barrette was man. aged cleverly by a well known creator. The bandeau was raised an inch or two In other words, the very close fitting turban had on its uppermost edge soft frill of velvet that, at the back. departed from the circular way of the crown and decided to tie itself in the perkiest knot. allowing the ends to extend in two ears that projected in most amazing fashion and at great length from the crown. It is predicted that the use of fur with charmeuse sat- in is combination for fall hats that is looked on with favor by several of the milliners of Paris.
 It is almost safe to say, however that veils are quite necessary to the well being of fall millinery.

EXPERT QUEENS.

CARMEN SYLVIA was not the only
 queen capable of earning her own living if necessity drove her to such a course. The queen of Belgium has taken a medical degree at Leipzig and prior to her marriage assisted her fa- ther, Duke Charles Theodore of Ba- varia, in his practice as an oculist. She is, however. a skillful motor driver and in the days before the war used to make a point of doing all the minor repairs to her cars.
 Another versatile sovereign is Queen Maud of Norway, who paints admira- ply, trims hats in a style that would Insure her a good salary from any high class milliner and is bookbinder of moro than average skill.

SOLITARY FUNCTIONS

GIT isn't worth while getting any,
 = thing in just for lunch," says the housekeeper who is alone all day. and so she takes the proverbial cup of tea or coffee and any odd "leftovers" that happen to be in the pantry. It's an un- appetizing meal and a hurried one and. therefore. nearly as bad as no meal at all. It is foolish habit likely to lead to headaches. weariness and frazzled nerves and quite unnecessary, even in these days of high cost of living" for there is no need to buy anything fresh. The leftovers can be transformed with very little trouble into something sa- worry and tempting.
 Take that tablespoonful of cold ce- real, for instance. It wouldn't be par ticularly inviting as a luncheon dish in its leftover state, but it could be kneaded with enough flour to make a pliable paste, shaped into two thin, small cakes and fried to a golden brown or baked on a griddle. Served on a very hot plate. with a little butter and maple or sugar sirup. they would be delicious.
 Scallop, shells are a boon to the luncheon for one person. The tiniest scrap of cold fish-even a dessert spoonful can be mixed with couple of tablespoonfuls of nicely seasoned white sauce and baked in a buttered shell. If the top is dotted with tiny bits of margarine or sprinkled with grated cheese so much the better.
 Odds and ends of cold vegetables. such as potatoes; cauliflower. sprouts or carrots. can be mixed with sauce in the same way, seasoned with a sprin- kling of cheese and baked to a golden brown. Half a baked potato can be transformed into a tasty individual dish. It may not be very substantial. but, being hot and savory. it will prob ably make the person enjoying 1t eat plenty of bread and butter or be ready for a satisfying second course of bread or biscuits and cheese.
 Cold peas, beans or potatoes make a splendid basis for a cupful of hot cream soup. Mash the vegetable. sea- son to taste, add enough fresh milk to make the amount required and boil for a minute or so. A teaspoonful of cream will add nutriment.
 A slice of cold lamb should be cut up very small and cooked for seven or eight minutes in half cupful of white sauce (made rather thick). seasoned to taste and served on hot toast.
 Cold meat may served up very tempt ingly in jelly. Cut it into neat cubes, pour over enough gelatin to cover well and leave till set. Turn it out. cut into squares and mix with a couple of young lettuce leaves, finely shredded. or any other salad, and sprinkle with some mayonna!se sauce or cream salad dressing. To make the jelly, dissolve about half a sheet of gelatin in a gill of nicely seasoned stock or water.
 In a thousand ways the odds and ends can be so resuscitated' that they will stimulate the appetite and make the lonely smack" a pleasant meal.

Remember the Apple

THE days have gone by when apples
 were an everyday adjunct of the household and as much a matter of course as potatoes. The higher price they now command makes their lavish use less possible. but they are still our standby in the fruit line. It is well that this is so. as they are especially whole some. We'll made apple sauce should always be kept on hand. Small or i'm perfect fruit can be used to advantage. Pare and core the apples and cut into small pieces. Pour boiling water over the cut apples using only enough to keep the sauce from burning at first. as the apples soon make their own juice. Cook quickly, stirring from time to time. When smooth add sugar, the juice of a lemon and half its peel cut into thin shreds. Never make apple sauce in metal and never stir with a metal spoon. It darkens easily by con- tact with metal An enameled ware saucepan and an enameled ware or wooden. spoon will obviate that difi- culty,
