ulated gelatin in ten tablespoonfuls of
cold water until soft. Pour ten table
spoonfuls of boiling water over two cups
Of sugar and boil until it makes a sirup,
which will form a thread when dropped
from a spoon. Remove the sirup
from the fire and stir into it the softened
gelatin. Let stand until COOL then add
salt and favoring, and beat until 1t be-

Pour the candy into granite pans busted

cool place until set. Cut in cubes and
roll in powdered sugar.
Chocolate marshmallows are made
either by coating the plain marshmallows
with melted, uusueetened chocolate, or
by adding melted chocolate to the marsh
mallow mixture before cooking. Chopped
nuts or csndied fruits may be stirred
into the mixture after it has been re-
moved from the fire. Instead of vanilla

place of part Of the water. Marshmal-

Planked Steak, With Potatoes and
Peas.
This method of cooking steak, chops
or fish will be found most appetizing.
The planks are made of hard wood,
and to retain the gravy they are
grooyed in the center; the plank must
be heated through before the meat is
placed upon it, Brush over the meat
with olive oil, dust with salt and pep
per and lay the plank in the oven for
fifteen or twenty minutes; when the
steak is nearly done, take the plank
from the oven and RarnlSh py pressing
mashed potatoes through a pastry tube
in little nests around the steak, and
filing the nests with canned peas
warmed in butter Alternate these
nests" with the carrots.
A great many people find in plank
ing" steak it is much more satisfac-
tory to partly boil the steak, chop or
fish before placing on the plank. 1t
still gives 1t the plank flavor without
burning the edge of the plank. Any
and all kinds of vegetables may be
used around the steak.
All roes should be parboiled as soon
as they reach the house from market,
or, better still, straight from the water.
Plunge at once into boiling salted wa
ter to which tablespoonful OF lemon
juice or vinegar has been added. This
not only prevents the roe from spoil
ing, but renders il firm and less liable
to .'plop" during broiling or frying.
Cook gently about ten or fifteen min
utes, then cool in the water in which
it was cooked. If you intend to use the
roe right away, lift out gently with
a skinner so not to break the ten
der skin and slide into a bowl of ice
water to become firm. After this the
roe may be cooked in any of dozen
different ways.

miles of women wearing clothes of this
material all over the continent.
Either from lack of originality or
hopelessness. neither the layman nor
the expert appears to make any
strenuous effort to get away from the
fabric The fact that the wholesale
houses have sent it out to all chan
neIs of trade does not stop the eXclu-
sive houses from selling it at high
price.
And the strange part of it is that
no one admits being tired of it. 1t

From childhood to old age we women
of America have worn this latter fab

parrots. The use of roses is not re-
stricted to the hand-painted variety.
They are used trimming on all
kinds of gowns. from serge to tulle.
Rarely any color is used but pink. and
this appears in silk. satin and velvet
Three months ago any woman would
have exclaimed at the idea of trim
ming her summer hat with pink roses.
She would have thought such choice
of adornment belonged to the bread
and-butter days of dress, but now she
accepts the new dictum without ques
ton. She not only uses pink roses on
her hat. but around her waist as a
girdle, over her shoulders in place
of sleeves as method of catching up
the drapery on the sides of her skirt
and nesting against the lace or tulle
that outlines the decolIetage of an
evening gown.
Several shades of light pink have
been brought into fashion by the use
OF these roses. Worth makes evening
gowns in plain and brocade pink satin:
Callot uses pink rose or q fun of
ostrich feathers at the right-hand cor
