Of fruits in different types and dishes.
not only in salads and desserts, but by
their use as furnishings and flavor
ings Currants. raspberries and cher
ries are now generally in their prime
and will add beauty as well as flavor.
In preparing fruits one needs to
take special pains in order to preserve
form and flavor. In washing berries
never allow them to stand in water;
colander and let cold water run over
them. Drain carefully. Always wash
berries before stemming or hulHng.
Serve usually in their natural condi-
ton rather than mashed or submerged
in sugar and cream.
Fruits undergo marked changes in
chemical composition as they grow to
their full size and ripen. In some
fruits ripening increases the sugar
content and decreases the acid, whereas
in some others both sugar and acid
content decrease in the ripening
process. 1t is important that house
depend on growth and ripening, that
they may know what conditions best
suit their purpose, and, conversely, how
to use fruit in different stages of de-
velopment For instance, underripe
bananas should never be eaten raw, as
thy are rich in starch: while in thor
oughly ripe fruit the starch has been
changed to sugar
We depend on fruit flavor to make
other foods more palatable by combi-
nation. And we must realize that to-
day fruit is looked upon as an i'm
portant part of the diet. Recent sta
tistics show that fruit supplies "A per

Violent tones of red. purple, green
and yellow are worn indiscrimin ately
by women who have heretofore thought
more of the shape of a hat than the
effect of the color on their skin and
eyes.
Purple. for instance, is traval color,
which means that it is only for the.
exclusive few. and yet THOUSANDS take
it up as child would pick qp a purple
bauble. without thought. 4M-the fact
that nature has given1to few women
the coloring pigments that allow a
gorgeous splashing OF purple worn
above the brow or below-the chin.
There Is thought for the analyst
again in the growing sense of color
mixtures among our women. even
though the colors primarily are not
skin and eyes. We seem to have
1eaped ahead in seven-league boots in
the art of mingling tones and com
bining colors.
AS nation. we have shown Pc
culiar infeiieity of touch in this. We
did not draw inspiration from the utter
oravado of our own Indian. nor were
we subdued by our ancestors the
Quakers. nor did we learn anything
from the French, unless acceptance
might be called lesson.
We have huddled colors together and
have shown a strong facility for add
ing just the wrong one at the wrong
moment that has disheartened every
artistic mind that has come face TO
face with US.
Whistlers idea of US was that given
q perfect house. we could always add
one. thing to the mantelpiece that
would destroy the rest.
Our lack Of color sense or trained
perception of color has shown itself
rot only in our clothes, but in every
thing else. In that entirely delightful
travel book by Emily Post, BY Motor
TO the Golden Gate" she points out
frequently in the journey across the
continent the clashing of shades
wherever woman had anything to do
with them. and the glory of them
whenever nature took control of the

Special Correspondence of The Star.

NEW YORK, July %, 1916.
- DAY here and there at the
M fashionable eastern resorts
@\ where women are supposed to
q q wear whatever is called the
latest fashion brands upon the mind
a strong feeling that there is no lead
ing fashion.
1t is all quite confusing. and es-
pecially so to the reporter of styles
who longs for one salient feature. one
dominating silhouette on which to fix
leadership.
1t becomes truer as the season adj
vances there is no one group of fash
ionable women to dominate clothes In
this country. We are probably too
immense to coalesce. voluntarily or ac-
cidentally. on some one thing.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1916-07-23

II we are shown the way through
the leadership of fashionable women
in Paris. via the American buyer. we
show every sheeplike tendency to
follow the bell wether. Therefore, it
is not that we resist any uniformity
of styles. but rather that we do not
know how to inaugurate this uni
formity among ourselves.
Whether or not the uniformity that
prevailed in other seasons is wise
thing for our appearance. is a subject
that has been discussed often and at
length, but the lack of it during the
two years that Paris has not been able
to point to a brilliant style on a well
dressed woman in France is an inter-
esting point for the analyst.
1t shows, as far as it goes. that we
have as yet no knowledge of the Sc
Letting and exploiting of certain
silhouette or style of dress. If We are
shown how to do it by others, who are
experts. we are delighted blindly to
follow. If we are not shown how. our
dressing is reduced to the formula OF

Is new and entertaining is appalled, at
the number of sweaters. On this one
garment the American world unites.
There is nothing new in it as re-
CARDS shape, color or texture from
what was worn last year, unless one
picks out for accentuation the gold
colored silk sweater, which carries
hat to match heaped with colored
flowers, or shing blow of color
in an aerop1ane bow.
AS for hats. there is one shape at
the resorts that rivals the sweater in
popularity. 1t is sailor. the brim
turned down in an even line around
the face. The crown is loose and
casual, like that of panama, and
around it there is a band of tightly
pulled ribbon with fiat bow.
This hat comes in every color, and
not one is omitted by the women who
foregather at any place of pleasure.
There is no desire shown to reject the
most vivid shade that any cubist or
futurist would use. -
