For several seasons the garments of
the younger generation have been SO
nearly identical in silhouette with
those developed for grown-up men,

oped for their big sisters is not at all
surprising. The frock shown carries

veloped in a summer fabric. bands OF

UNUSUAL SALADS.

Ono can serve a plain salad, of let
tuce endiye. eEcarole or some other
salad green, with French dressing, for
dinner every night If one desires. The
simpler a salad for dinner the better
usually. But the so-called fancy
salads are liked for luncheon. And oc-
casionally, too, something a little elab-
crate a little different. for dinner is
appropriate.
Rules for Salad Making.
There are some general rules for
salad making-and hove they are:
The green part of the salad should
always be fresh and crisp. To make
it crisp-nothing but nature can make
it fresh-wash it and then chill II
thoroughly.
Always remove any discolored part
Of the green.
If the green is a little old and tough.
but otherwise good. shred it with the
fingers or cut ii into narrow pieces
with a pair of sharp scissors.
Always have French dressing very
cold when it is poured over salad. Be
sure that it is thoroughly mixed. II
can perhaps best be mixed In bottle.
in which 1t can be well shaken before
serving.
Never use anything that is not fresh
and sweet for n salad
Remember that when other elaborate
dishes are served a simple salad is best
Never have n salad so elaborate In
appearance that 1t loses a fresh. crisp
appearance-after ALL the most at
tractive thing about salad.

Canned peaches can be used for q
very dainty salad. On each nest OF
crisp white lettuce leaves place half q

Peter Tries to Visit Paddy the
Beaver.

Peter Rabbit was leased SO much by
hts friends because OF the way he had
watched all day for Johnny Chuck to
come out to look for his shadow that
he began to wish that he might find a
place where he could be by himself un-
til his friends had forgotten about the
Joke, and this reminded him that he
had not visited the lonely pond of
Paddy the Beaver. deep in the Green
Forest. for very long time, In fact.
he had not been over there since the
coming of winter.
II believe I'll run over and visit
Paddy and see how he is getting
along" thought Peter. He wouldn't ad-
m!t even to himself that he was run
ming away from the teasing of his
friends. but that IL just what he was
doing as he hoped along, lipperty-lip-

COOKED NUT DISHES.

One good result Of the high cost Of
living fanfare is that we are beginning
to regard nuts as food and not as
the heavy dinner just before the cor
dials One really might as well top
off with baked beans as far as that
goes, for nuts are extremely rich in
food value, and they should never be
eaten after enough food has already
been taken. If they are you not only
ignore the principles of health. but you
commit the crime-unpardonable just
at present-of being uneconomical.
There are lots of ways OF making
cooked dishes from nuts SO that their
food value can be utilized. Nut bread
is one of these. For luncheon It is
splendid. A bread and butter sand
witch from nut bread would be almost
as nourishing as a meat sandwich.
Here is the rule for making a nut
loaf that has proved to be very popu-
lar in several households. 1t calls for
one cupful of chopped English walnuts
and an equal quantity of grated cheese
and bread crumbs. Cook a half cup of
chopped onions In one tablespoonful
of butter and a little water and the
juice Of half a lemon When the onions
and breadcrumbs. Mix. using a little
more water to bind together. Season
with salt and pepper and form in a leaf
and brown in the oven.
Brazil nut crpQuettes would answer
the purpose Of a meat dish at any meal.
This rule calls for a quarter of a pound
of bread crumbs and the Same amount
OF skinned and ground Brazil nuts.
Bind together with n cup of white
sauce. Season to taste. Form in GRO
quettes, beat in a beaten egg and
cracked crumbs and fry in deep fat,
Nut soup calls for one onion cut up
fine and boiled in IL cups of water
and ~ cups of milk. When tender

nothing even to hint at a pond. for. you
see. it was frozen from shore to shore.
and the ice was covered with snow.
Near one end was a great, white
mound. This was Paddy's house.
Peter gazed over at 1t with eyes
very wide with curiosity. How differ
ent it was from what 1t had been the
last time he saw It! Then 1t was a
great mound of sticks, covered with
rushes and mud. very wonderful. but
not at all pretty. Now II was pure
white and beautiful and more wonder
full than ever.
It'll go right over and have a nice
visit with Paddy" said he. HE must
be lonesome and he'll probably be glad
to see me. 1 certainly will be glad to
see him..
So Peter scampered across the pond,
lipperty- lipperty-lip, straight to the
house of Paddy the Beaver. Now. Peter
is needless. as we all know. It wasn't
until he reached that glistening. white
house of Paddy's, and had been around
| it three times looking for doorway.

ward the pond of Paddy the Beaver.
You see. he knew that it wasn't in the
least likely that he would find any one
else there at this time of year. and he
felt quite sure that Paddy couldn't have
heard OF the joke about Johnny Chuck S
shadow. He could have a nice visit
with Paddy in peace.
Now. even in summer the pond of
Paddy the Beaver Is q very lonesome
sort of place to any one who likes COM
