To concoct elaborate dishes with
strawberries seems almost like paint
ing the lily. Never are strawberries SO
delicious as when they are eaten just
as they come from the garden-wash-
ed. perhaps, to satisfy our craving Tor
cleanly food. but otherwise as they
grew.
Served on the hulls or with hu1ls re-
moved they are delicious. Strawberries
should be eaten without sugar. but
this means that strawberries should
be sweet and perfectly ripe when they
are eaten. The acidious excuses many
of US take in the place of the perfect
berries demand sugar to make them
palatable.
There are those, of course. who pre-
fer the lily painted; hence the follow
ing recipes for preparing strawberries:
Strawberry Salad.
Use crisp white lettuce leaves and
arrange two or three, one within the
other, in cup shape, on each place.
Place several large strawberries in
each and dress with French dressing.
Serve with cream cheese balls.
Strawberry Jelly Salad.
Cut large, perfect strawberries into
halves and put them in small cups or
individual molds. Pour tart lemon
Jelly over them and let harden. Serve
on lettuce leaves with mayonnaiSe.
Strawberry Charlotte.
For this dainty dessert, crush quart
of ripe strawberries and sprinkle gen.
erously with confectioner's sugar. Put
in the refrigerator to chill and when
thoroughly chilled, drain in a wire
sieve. Use only the solid part, reserv-
ing the fruit juice for sherbet,
punches or sauces.
Whip until very stiff cupful OF
cream and sweeten with two table
spoonfuls of powdered sugar. Have
ready a stiffly beaten white OF egg ana
add to the. cream with the chilled per-
ries. Split small lady fingers ana ar
range in log cabin fashion on plates.
Pile the strawberry mixture into them
and serve.
Strawberry Eclairs.
Split eclair shells and fill with ripe,
small. sweet strawberries, sprinkled
with sugar. Then fill in with whipped
cream, put on the tops, and add more
whipped cream.
Strawberry Cake.
Make any good layer cake and fill
and ice with the following frosting:

Peter Rabbit Cannot Find
Winsome's Home.

Where was Winsome Bluebird's new
home? Peter Rabbit had turned that
question over and over in his mind un-
til his head ached. Not that it was anv
of Peters business 1t wasn't. OF
course. not. But you know how 1t is
with Peter-he is lot more interested
IN the affairs of other people than in
his own Some people are just that way.
He had taken it for granted that Win
some would build nest in the same
old hollow in the Old Orchard that he
had used the year before and the wear
before that So during the time he had
been so interested in the affairs of Mr..
and Mrs. Quack he had given little
thought to Winsome Bluebird
Il can run up and call on him any
time,' thought Peter. But, when at last
he took it into his head early one morn
ing to make that long delayed call Just
Imagine how surprised he was not to
nnd Winsome in the old apple tree in
which was the hole which used to be
his home
He must be off after his breakfast
and probably Mrs. Winsome is inside
that hole" thought Peter. I'll just sit
down and wait a while"
So he sat down where he could watch
the entrance to Winsome's old home
and waited. He waited and waited, but
sun there was no sign of WinSome
Bluebird.
That's queer" thought Peter. "I
never knew him to stay away from
home so long before. Then he waited
and waited and waited some more, and
still Winsome Bluebird did not come
Waiting for some one?" asked a
voice.
Peter turned to see Johnny Chuck sit
ting up and grinning at him.
Yes replied Peter. 'Tm waiting for
Winsome Bluebird 1 thought l would
pay him call this morning."
I'm afraid you will wait a long time
before you will see him here" chuckled
Johnny Chuck.
Peters eyes opened wide with sur
prise. Isn't that his home right up
there?' he demanded, pointing to the

long time we have worn our clothes
fastened in straight lines up the front,
and many of the spring jackets nave
only one button at the neck and the
waistline, with the narrow fronts mar
ing open to show the blouse. 1t is
held by the designers that this single
fastening does not go well with the
extra large cape collars that are grad
ually getting strong grip on the
fashions, and. therefore. they nave
adopted. or. rather, one or two OF the
leading designers have insisted upon,
the tapping of the fronts Of coat or
a bodice, and the use of extra-large
buttons.
The coat which is being used as a
copy is shown in the sketch today. II
is of gray taffeta. fastened with SILK
buttons. The coat below the walstline
looks as though it had been cut twice
too long for the figure and the extra
length turned up and fastened in points
to the waistline. This arrangement OF
drapery gives a succession of panniers
around the figure. but the silk Is so
soft that the effect is not ungraceful.
If the coat is made in a heavier fabric
there must be less width between the
points, or the open spaces will sag In
an ungainly fashion, like large pockets
that have been overcrowded with pack
ages.

New Lingerie Patterns.

Women who do no other sewing
sometimes make their own lingerie
at least, part of it. Although the
modern lingerie is so dainty. SO elab-
crate, 1t is quite possible to make 1t II
one follows the new patterns carefully.
for they are, of course, designed by
the best designers that money can hire,
and they are, withal. practical
To begin with, there are the usual
patterns in the new silhouette. All un-
derwear has taken on faring lines. So,
of course, there are patterns with a
fare for all the lingerie one might de-
sire.
There is the new petticoat that meas
ures from three and half to four
yards around the bottom, petticoat
every one will need to wear with the
summers full-skirted frocks. Such a
petticoat can be finished in scallops or
deep points at the bottom, Or straight
founce trimmed with lace or ruchlngs
can be used. And it can be made with
or without extension under the
founce and with or without a dust
ruffie.
There is a most attractive pattern for
a nightgown with revers, back and
front There is V-shaped opening
back and front, and little revers turn
back from this opening. The gown is
belted in at the empire waist line, or
left hanging, but the belted form seems
prettier.
There is too the sleeveless night
gown with points of the front and back
meeting on the shoulders. This. too. is
left flowing, or else belted in, as one
prefers.
There is e simply made princess slip,
with the required width at the bottom.
1t is in two pieces, shaped in at the
waist and fitted by means of rib
bons run through beading at the belt.
II is made with ribbon or lace straps
over the shoulder, or with shaped
neckling.
A lovely nightgown pattern for founc'

the manner of military cape and
trimmed with a double row of shirring.
This trimming is repeated around the
bottom of the wrap.
Shoe shops are offering a wonderful
display of summer footwear to choose
from. Shoes will be worn all summer.
But for the woman who prefers COM
fort to smartness. there are new col
ors and designs of hosiery which make
slippers appear, after all. to be quite
pardonable things Slippers may be
had in any shade to match the suit.
Some are perfectly plain in cut. with a
high French heel others are more
elaborate with rows of perforations.

Comfortable. low -heeled sport shoes are
to be had in white. with many rows

A New Kind of Long Coat.

So far-for three-quarters of all the
spring suits are made-there is short
coat that flares from the waistline.
MANY of them are like EliZabethan
bodices. the kind the men wore. with
square battlements as a finish and a
slight wrinkle around the waistline to
break the straightness from shoulder
to hips.
But no one style of jacket, as no
one style of skirt. is suitable for every
figure and the time is, happily, past
when woman felt that she had to
wear what her neighbor wore, regard
less of her figure and the color OF her
complexion. The designers, knowing
plants against the short jacket they
will have to stand. have introduced a
new kind of long coat that is supposed
to remedy the grievance women have
against the other kind.
1t is not simple. and 1t is quite pos
sible that it will not be available for
the majority of women, but ii is so
original and graceful that it will in
stantly appeal to the woman who
wishes individual clothes. 1t is much
longer than anything we have had so
far and can be called separate coat
if it is made of the proper material
and worn over any kind of one-piece
frock, according to the usage Of the
day.
