Mr.. Griffith took his company to
California one winter. In this COM
PAM were Mable Normand, Blanche
Sweet, Mae Marsh, Mack Sennett,
James Kirkwood, Gertrude Robinson,
Owen Moore and myself
We were a very gay party, having
a private car to ourselves. When
New Years came, Mr.. Griffith saw
no reason why we should not cele-
brate as merrily as if we were in a
brilliant cafe, made gaudy by holiday
decorations and hilarious by songs,
accompanied by all sorts and condi-
tions of tin horns.
He hired the dining car after the
other travellers were finished, and we
were invited to a wonderful spread.
Never have l sat down to gayer or
a more luxurious banquet; nor have
ever had happier New Years
Eve.
A Clever Comedienne.
After the dinner was over, we
staged a moving-picture comedy, and
it was then we realized, almost for
the first time, what a wonderful COM
edicnne Mabel Normand was. She
had been playing ultra-seriously in
dramas. Because she was dark and the
representative type of villainess, she
was made to play the flashing-eyed
creature OF temperament whose very
looks were stilletoes in your heart
and whose movements undulated like
snake crawling through the brush.
The thousands who have laughed
with her on the screen in her last
few year. Of comedy perhaps have
forgotten her as heavy woman.
Reverse conditions occur in many
. stances where the careers of makers
Of comedy have been cut short to
transform them into double-dyed
.4gcdians.
We danced and sang, and at last
VIC decided that we would share our
mcrrymaking with the rest of the
train. So we filed through the coaches,
wishing every one a happy new year
and singing in uncertain quartetS all
the old songs which are the symbol
OF the departing year and the advent
OF a new one.
A Discordant Note.
Every one in the train seemed to
join in with our festive spirits except
t % old spinsters, who looked at US
askance over the tops OF their spec
tacles. They said, in a shrill, audible
whisper: Them actor folks are git
tin gayer n gayer! It's morc'n apple
cider they've been drinkin'." OF

team. 1t was said that Al was even
fired by the manager of his fathers
team.
Even that did not discomfort the
elder Mamaux. He was determined
that his son should be a ball player.
Barney Dreyfuss, owner of the Pirates,
was appealed to. Barney carried the
youngster for two years without send
ing him in. A year ago Mamaux
flashed forth as Pirate hurler. To-
day he is recognized as the most
promising pitcher in either of the big
leagues. Mamaux is unquestionably
the only case on record where player
bought his way into the big show.
His development did not cost the
Pittsburgh owners single sou. Daddy
Mamaux paid for his sons education,
and the best part of it is he says he
feels amply repaid every time he goes
to Forbes field and sees AL pitch a
good game.

AS SALADS SHOULD Be
EVERY DETAIL MUST BE CARE
FULLY LOOKED TO.
Smallest Thing That Is Forgotten May
Completely Mar the Savoriness of
Preparations When They
Go to the Table.

Salad depends for it's savoriness
on the minutest details of it's season
ing. To be sure, the green's of which
it is made must be fresh and crisp.
But given crisp, fresh lettuce, water
cress, escarole, endive or any other
salad greens, the cook who under
stands the blending of seasonings can
produce a savory salad at slight ex-
pense of time or money.
To begin with, vinegar holds many
possibilities. 1t should be bland.
Then, with foundation Of bland vine
gar, the experienced salad maker con-
cocts different favored vinegars. In
one bottle she puts a tablespoonful
of celery seed, and fills the bottle with
vinegar. After this has stood for
a week it has a very good flavor. A
few cloves of garlic are put into an
other bottlefu1 of vinegar. A bay leaf
is soaked in still another.
When mixing French dressing these
various vinegars are used to give diff
ferent f1avors. They can also be used
in mayonnaise.
A little crushed mint can be soaked
in vinegar, just before it is used for
French dressing.
Lemon juice, instead of vinegar, &C.
casionally makes a delicious dressing
when mixed with olive oil and sea-
soned with salt, pepper and cayenne.
Add mace occasionally to French
dressing.
Put slice of onion under little
slice of bread in the bottom OF the
dish in which salad stands. This
method keeps the onion from touch
ing the salad and at the same time
the onion flavor permeates the whole
mass.
Add Worcestershire sauce to
French dressing for favoring much
liked by the English.
A little RoQuefort cheese creamed
into French dressing gives rich ia
vor that some people like.

TATTERED GARB WINS
Mamaux Drew Ragged Uniform,

Winning Pitcher on Pirate STAR owes
His Success to an Incident on
Opening Day at Cincinnati
Crowd Was With Him.

AL Mamaux, the youngster VINO mas
proyed winning pitcher this year Tor
the Pittsburgh Pirates, owes his sue
cess this season largely to an incl
dent that occurred in Cincinnati on
opening day.
There were not enough new Pirate
uniforms to go around, and the result
was that one or two youngsters naa
to wear the faded and tattered suits
of the year before. The thrills or the
opener and the music of the bands
did not appeal to Mamaux. He saw
recruits, now among the dlscards,
wearing the clean gray Pirate garb,
while his suit was held together Win
safety pins. AL sat sulking on the
bench, peeved and heartbroken.
Il ought to have had one OF those
uniforms he muttered.
Then he sat with his head down and
watched the neatly clad rockies dis
porting themselves. Finally he jumped
up. tore off his sweater coat and ex.
claimed
"Doggone them; I'll show 'em who
has the best right to new uniform.
And then in his patched-up garb OF
1914 gray the Dormont lad took his
place among the fastidious ones. He
pitched to the batters in practice;
he fielded bunts and he did everything
he could to make himself useful.
Mamaux won the crowd, which no
doubt figured the old adage that THE
clothes don't make the man.
Mamaux is the son of wealthy
Pittsburgh tent and awning manufac-
turer. The elder Mamaux is base
ball bug and encouraged his son to
take up the great national pastime as
a profession. AS a kid the youngster
was crude and did not fit in. He was
fired off at least dozen semipro
teams around Pittsburgh. To be sure
that his son would have regular po-
sition, Father Mamaux organized

chintz as an Armor in Household.


The vogue for chintz in dress has
led a young matron who does her own
housework-and likes to look well
while doing it-into making a set or
work aprons and caps out of this dec
oratiye material.
The firm weave of chintz makes II
an admirable dust-proof protection for
gown and hair and keeps fresh look.
Chintz does not wrinkle easily, and II
a gay all-over design be chosen, 1t
will not look spotted for long while.
Dressed in her chintz apron and cap
to match, the young matron looks
pretty to degree-more as though
arrayed for some fancy dress affair
than for mere work; a fact that
makes work 60 gayly.
Her aprons cover her gowns en-
tirely. They are tightly belted in at
the waist and furnished with a COM
modious pocket. An apron and cap
striped in inch bars of dark blue alter
mating with pattern of green leaves
and yellow flowers on white back
ground make her favorite chintz ar
NOR against dust and soil.

Chicken, turkey and duck fat can
not be surpassed as a substitute for
oil or butter in cooking. The large
flakes from fat poultry, or the fat that
rises to the top in making broth,
should be saved and rendered. When
ice cold, it closely resembles butter in
looks and flavor. The skillful Italian
and French cooks always use this fat
when making the crust for chicken pie
and in Italy one eats cauliflower that
has been dipped in butter and then
fried crisp and brown in this delecta-
