In the cold black and white of the picture it is impoSsi- bic to even hint at the wonderful man. agement of col0rs and adaptation of materials to effects that made this gown the delight of critics But they were quick to perceive that the de- signer understood all the possibilities of her fabrics and she used them with the sure hand of master.

A Saxon-French Ciaar Liohter.

Several years ago the then new min lster of France, Nj. Klotz, decided to Impose tax of two francs, or 10 cents American money, on each cigar lighter used in that country. The rea- son for this is that the sale of matches In France Is in the hands of the gov ernment monopoly and the portable lighters interfered with the sale of the matches. On the other hand the matches have become so bad in quality that they are subject of complaint and ridlcule. The law has become unpOpu- lar and there is an effort now being made to have the order rescinded. Not withstanding the fact that an in- creased tax was placed on tobacco by the French government several years ago, 1t has caused tendency to in- crease smoking and that Is proven by the many smokers to be seen in public places and thoroughfares.

Most Admired Statue.

What is the most admired statue in Washington? The memorial to Mrs. Adams by NIr. Saint-Gaudens, thinks Nr. Moore. He says that fin spite of the remoteness of location and the diff ficulty of finding it in Rock Creek ceme- tery, no other work of art in Washing ton is really seen by so many people. Undoubtedly the element of mystery in both figure and setting has to do with it's fame but prefer to think that in this memorial the sculptor has ex pressed (using his own words to mel the soul face to face with the great est of all mysteries'-the problem, if man die shall he live again?"

WISE CHOICE OF FOOD
BY II. e. Barnard.

The housekeeper who plans her
meals for two or three days in advance
saves much time and thought. There
was time when carpenters cut each
timber as they built the house. The
modern builder knows before the first
foundation is laid just how his plan
will work out. His estimates are accu-
rate and because he plans he builds
successfully and without waste.
Exactly the same method of plan
ming should he followed in the kitchen.
There is less likelihood that the same
food will be often repeated or often
cooked in the same way if the meals
for several days are planned In adj
vance. But in preparing meals the
housewife should be guided by several
principles. These rules are as FOL
lows:
l. Include in each meal foods suited
to the needs OF each member of the
family-hearty foods for healthy
adults; simple. easily digested foods
for children and the aged.
9. Do not serve the same food in diff
ferent forms ut the same meal, as pO-
tato soup and potato salad; eggs and
custard pie, or canned corn and corn
bread.
3. Balance the different parts of the
meal. A heavy main course such as
roast pork should be followed by light
dessert like apple sauce or baked apple
rather than apple pie. A meal in which
vegetables form the principal course Is
well rounded by a heavier dessert like
mince pie.
4. In planning the meal choose foods
rather by what they contain in nutri-
ments than by their bulk, and include
in each meal an article rich in the nee
eSSary food elements. Do not, however,
select too many foods rich in protein
or fat or starch. Meat served with
macarOni and cheese furnishes too
much protein; rice and potatoes too
much starch, roast pork and mince pie
too much fat.
