BEST EFFECTS IN FURNITURE
Black and White, in Artistic Designs
Is Most Popular of Fashion
able Furnishings.

The fad for black and white in in
teriOrs still RACES. In it's present form
this fad is a good one, for now that we
have passed the days of OVERRIDING the
black-and-white idea we have come
upon some really charming effects.
The rage for black has taught us
that dark furniture is often far more
effective than light furniture. And
that is something worth learning.
There are places, of course, where dark
furniture does not look well. But in
a room of rather heterogeneous color
scheme dark furniture is almost sure
to look best.
So if you have on hand any old fur
niture, even of a dilapidated sort,
darken it. Use brown or black stain,
and with this stain turn the cherry
bedside stand, the golden oak rocking
chair, the battered curly maple writing
desk, the green-stained mission bureau
and dressing table, the gray enameled
bed-turn them all into a dull, dark
bedroom suite. Then place them in a
room with mustard yellow or soft blue
paper on the walls, with bright chintz

SPRING STYLES COMING SOON
Winter Fashions Responsible for the
Early Introduction Of the New
Seasons Garments.

Every fashion has it's foundation.
Have you observed that there are few
err fur-trimmed suits this season than
in recent years? This is due TO the
popularity of fur sets. Women who
own h -of MORE seIs-6emand DIR
trimmed suits so that they can con-
veniently wear their fur pieces, and
also that a change can be made in the
sets.
Whether the straight silhouette is
responsible for the vogue of velyets
and satins, or whether the materials
created the straight lines is a question
az tantalizing as the hen-and-egg prob
lem. Nevertheless, 1t is true that the
one is dependent upon the other. 1t
would be almost impossible TO use soft
satins and slinky velvets for the bout

Observation-Disclosures cry.
The craze for long coats has lowered
the demand for coat suits. AS q re-

ALL MADE WITHOUT EGGS
Nine Recipes That DO Not Call for the
More or Less Expensive "Hen
Fruit"

Rice Pudding-One small %teacupful
Of rice, three-quarter cupful sugar, one
quart milk, n little grated nutmeg /;
soak one hour, turning frequently bake
two hours without stirring.
Tapioca Puddlng-Three large table
spoonfuls of tapioca (granulated),
three-quarters cupful sugar, one quart
milk, a little nutmeg; soak one hour,
stirring; bake two hours without stir
ring.
Indian Pudding-One and one-half
cupfuls meal, one cupful molasses, one
tablespoonful beef suet chopped fine;
boiling water to fill two-quart pudding
dish, stirring all the time; bake slowly
four hours.
Here is a good pudding sauce to use
now when eggs are high:
Plain Sauce--Melt one tablespoonful
butter, add two tablespoonfuls flour,
one and one-half cupfuls hot water;
cook until smooth, then add one and
one-half cupfuls brown sugar, two tea
spoonfuls lemon juice and nutmeg.
Date Cookies-One large cupful
dates, stone and cut in pieces, one cup
full sugar, two-thirds cupful butter, a
little salt, cinnamon and nutmeg; stir
all together in two t~easpoonfuls bak-
Ing powder, one-half cupful milk or wa
ter, flour stiff enough to handle.
Cream Toast-TwO tablespoonfuls
butter, two tablespoonfuls flour heated
n blended, add two cupfuls cold milk,
stirring until smooth add one tea
spoonful of sugar, if wished sweet.
Griddle Gladstone and one-half
pints flour, one-half teaspoonful baking
powder, water to make thin batter.
Cornmeal Mush-Stir the meal into
boiling water, a handful ut a time. 1t
must be stirred well and kept boiling
all the time. Do not leave it for a min
ute. When you feel it t%hickening that
is plenty. Stir for u couple of minutes,
or until it is quite thick set on back
of stove and cook one-half hour or less;
turn into pan, cover with another to
prevent hard crust forming; in morn
ing slice and fry in hot fat for break
fast and serve with molasses.
English Mufiins-One quart -four,
one-half teaspoonful sugar, t%easpoonful
salt, two large ~teaspoonfuls baking
powder, one and one-quarter pints
milk fry on griddle.

USEFUL PIECE OF FURNITURE
Ottoman Can Be Made Of Excellent
Service in a Surprising Variety
of Ways.

These round humpty ottomans are
very useful in a sitting they can
be, of course, made small for a foot
stool or in larger size for a seat.
The first thing to do is to make a
round, thick cushion the size decided
on it must be very tightly stuffed so
that it is quite firm any clean pieces
of rag might be cut up into small
pieces for s%tufing the lower part, then
towards the top vegetable down or
wooden flocks should be used. Gre
tonne or furniture brocade may be
used for covering; for the lower part
the sides half way from middle TO bot
tom should be covered stretch it as
tightly as possible and sew it at the
top first; then turn lower edge under
the bottom and sew firmly finish by
sewing n circle of lining on to cover all
rough edges.
The top covering must be cut in a
circle large enough to allow for the
hemmed frill stretch it over the top

DESIGN FOR SPRING

almost any perfectly plain item of
outer apparel may be listed as a
sports" garment. Women, however,
are not at all disturbed by this classi-
~fication, and select sports skirts and
blouses for home and utility wear, and
sports suits and coats for general serv-
ice because this type of apparel is
generally most becoming, as well as
smart.
The sketch illustrates n very chic
little sports blouse or golf shirt, as
some prefer to call 1t, and a sports
skirt, the latter being a spring model
design. The blouse Is made of white
wool Jersey, cloth. 1t is of the slip
over variety. The buttoned-on belt
at the front makes this possible. The
neck opening Is secured by means of
buttonholes and loop buttons. If de-
sired, collar, cuffs and pocket edging,
as well as the detachable front belt,
may be of broadcloth in color, although
unquestionably more service is guaran-
teed If the blouse is all white. It is
unlined, and, although wool jersey
cloth will shrink amazingly If careless
ly Numbered, this can be avoided by
proper handling. To make the blouse
two yards of material 30 inches wide
will be required.
The skirt, an advance spring model,
as stated, is also a fo%rerunner of
spring in the selection of material
plaids will be amazingly popular.

I

on first thoughts, that
there could be no such
life: the Riviera must be dead-wiped
off the map. Yet a life, strange, new,
burning with interest and romance,
was horn in the French Riviera Au-
gust 2, 1914, writes c. n. and A. NJ.
Williamson in the London Graphic.
Of cOuese, the Riviera was struck
the saline sweeping blow that struck all
France across her brave, astonished
face. At the clang of the tocsin, the
men " the Midi al Il into the
streets of picturesque rock villages
among the hills and tourist towns
along t.ie sea, as the men of the North
were diving. But the Riviera thrilled
under the n of a peril all her
own. Just across the beautiful Gorge
Of st. Louis lived a friend who might
in an hour become an enemy. Italy
was there, with her mountain forts
looking towards the forts of France.
Lazy, summertime Mentone and
Monte Carlo and Nice, with nothing
doing" except for batherS and baskers
on the beach, or faithful lovers of Il
quiet game of roulette, walked up with
Il Mortified start. Would Italian guns

where any thought of tragedy would
have seemed ridiculously out of place.
Flight of the Working-Folk.
Panic-stricken, the Italian working
folk settled along the coast from Men
tone to Marseilles started to scuttle
across the frontier. They feared in
ternment and a hundred vague hor-
r0rs. Under the binding sun of Au-
gust, along the dazzling roads of Up
per and Lower COrniche, marched an
endless procession, and those who can
imagine only professions of smart au-
tOmobiles between MentOne and
Cannes would have thought themselves
dreaming that long black line. it was
a line of men and women, old and
young, tOttering children ard babies in
arms-in arms because the perambu-
lators were piled with the family bag

wheelbarrOwS, caravans, every sort of
vehicle.

humorous side, because, as it turned
out, the whole business was unneceS-
sary. The next phase through which
the Riviera passed, however, was far
from funny. She doesn't really fall as

who know her only in winter seem to
think. There is always the wonderful

keepers and amusement caterers of ev-
cry sort were improving their proper
ties, arranging their advertisements
and preparing for another cas- of
peace and plenty. Then suddenly came
the crash, and for them il looked the
end of the world when, on August 8,
the Monte Carlo casino closed its doors.
Meanwhile the people whose bust
ness had always been to make the Ri
viera attractive, were looking each
other in the face. They saw nothing
but ruin ahead. But something desper-
ate had to be done, for the living of
many thousands depended on their de
cision and its success. Just as brave
ly as the young men were fighting in
the North, the older men in the South
put their backs to the burden. They
got no sympathy from outside. They
must stand together and save the Ri
viera as their sons and younger broth
ers were saving the rest of France.
Casino Doing Its "5it."
Few hotels were to remain shut for
the season. except those which were
needed for hospitals. The shops were
to do business us usual" and a great
petition was sent to the Casino not to
keep its doors closed: it was more
sympathetic it was more patriotic
to open them. The Societe saw the
justice of this, since the life of the
Riviera might hang on their world.
Consent was given, though it looked
as if it meant u large monetary loss
and on January l, 1915, when the war
was six months old, the Casino at
Monte Carlo began to do its bit" by
the public, as already it was doing for
its employees.
By this time everything was getting
into full swing. But what II different
everything from what we had all
known! If you We're not doing some
good work, public or private, you
were as much ashamed of yourself as
if you had stayed in London. Not even
m automobile dared to show its nose
unless ii had q Red Cross on it. And
without its dust-ruiSing hOrdeS of mo-
tors the Riviera began to be Il won
drous new place. that had to be dis
covered all over again. When YOU had
finished your daily work of visiting
the poor or of suffering in some rock
village or hospital, when you had put
together your pile of knitted socks, or
the bandages you had promised to
make, you could actually 90 for n quiet
walk-a joy forgotten since high-pow-
cred cars took over the Riviera.
Ordinary gaieties were given up, and
it wasn't fully realized yet how kindly,
how cleverly they could be organized
for doing good. In Mentone the tall,
black S~enegaleSe soldiers had begun to
appear. at first to be trained for a new
kind of fighting then, when they had
fought, as invalids in the hotel-hospit-
ais. But, well or wounded. they were
a gay crowd. They made Mentone
picturesque with their costumes and
their camp fires and their games in the
streets.
