NEW YORK, January 5.-When any
ono goes into a shop these days where
fine things are sold her first request Is
for an evening wrap. These pieces OF
apparel have become an obsession Tor
those who sell clothes. No matter what
ono wishes to order. an evening wrap
fs offered first and last. and beguiing
arguments are brought forth to per-
suade one to buy 1t.
If you insist that you have six even
ing wraps already and only enough
social opportunities for one the be-
guiling goes on just the same. You
are told that no one of these wraps
can be in the right shape If they were
made before October; the interesting
information is given that women are
judged by their evening wraps this
season. If you say that it is your habit
to leave the wrap in the dressing room
and that 1t is never seen by any one
but the taxicab chauffeur and the maid
who takes it from you. incredulity is
shown that you are not so much In
fashion as to pose moment before the
guests in a splendid evening wrap.
On the other hand. If you agree to all
these arguments and say that you carry
out every one of them in practice. then

MADE WITH CHEESE.

There are many possibilities in cake
Of cream cheese, and fresh one should
be one of the emergency contents of
| the refrigerator.
| Cheese balls can be made in many
different ways for salad garnish, and
| they always add both to the appear
| ance' and the nutritive value of the
dish with which they are served. Mofs-
ten the cheese, if it Is a little dry, with
sweet cream. and season with little
salt. Then roll into small balls-so
| according to taste. Roll the balls in
chopped nut meats, or in minced green
pepper or minced parsley. Put two nut
meats on each ball-pecans or walnuts
Sprinkle the balls with nutmeg or with
red pepper.
Various salads can be made with
cream cheese combined with other in
gradients. For one thing, it can be
used. mixed with chopped nuts or alone.
to stuff dates from which the pits have
been removed. It can be placed in the
center of a slice of pineapple in neat
little mound, or it can be pressed
through a vegetable ricer to sprinkle
over any sort of salad. Another good
way to serve cream cheese Is to make
molds of tomato jelly, and to scoop out
a cavity in the center Of each: into this
cavity press little cream cheese.
Sweet green or red peppers are de-
1icious with cream cheese. To prepare
them, remove the tops and stuff the
cavity, after removing seeds and
stringy lining, with cream cheese.
Chill thoroughly. and slice in thin
slices with very sharp knife. Serve
on lettuce leaves. with French or
mayonnaise dressing. use as gar
nish for cold meat.
Frozen cheese Is delicious with salad.
One good sort is made of cream cheese,
moistened with cream, and seasoned
generously with paprika and salt, with
to make the cheese peppery to the
taste. Press the mixture into little
paper patty cases. put them in a tin
box or baking powder can, cover Sc

Dried white beans can be made into
many tempting combinations. and not
the least tempting Is the reliable dish
Of baked beans. Baked beans can be
any Of a dozen different things, all the
way from delicious to unpalatable. ac-
cording to the way they are cooked.
To begin with, they must be cooked
tender, which means a long. slow,
thorough cooking. They must. how
ever, never be cooked to the mushy
stag. They are always improved by
careful flavoring-with meat or vege-
tables Small ramekins of baked beans,
over each of which strip of bacon is
laid, are delicious in both appearance
and taste and can be used as an entree
at dinner or luncheon. Beans baked
with a pork chop for each person, in
stead of the usual salt pork, are also
good.
Baked With OIL.
Soak one quart of beans overnight In
warm water. Place them in double
boiler and add two teaspoonfuls salt,
one-half cup tomatoes and a small
piece of pork and let them steam until
nearly done. Then remove to oven:
