 To those who use beef cod: When. you get or pounds grind it through food chopper and put it on in large pan or kettle, set on back of stove so it will fry out slowly, put l pound of lard or Crisco and let it cook together. The lard keeps it soft and easy to use.
 To those who use whole nutmeg: Some times a lot of little pieces vii! collect too small to grate. I save them all until I get a teaspoonful of the pieces, then put in bottle holding or ounces and cover with alcohol. It makes nice extract. Add more pieces if not strong enough.
 The dark brown stain which tobac- co makes on brass and copper ash trays can be easily removed with d little denatured alcohol applied with a brush.
 For a slight burn pour on a little alcohol. It will give instant relief
 In stuffing green peppers for baking, ie they are oiled first they will not turn brown in the oven.

LADY MILLER OF BATHEAsToN.

Lady Miller of Batheaston was a literary amateur who lived in the eighteenth century. She was a woman
 of considerable talent and of a very
 emotional nature. In company with
 her husband she made a tour of Italy,
 and on returning brought with her an antique vase. This was set up as a
 shrine in their literary salon, and formally dedicated to Apollo, Lady
 Miller assuming the office of high
 priestess. A general invitation was issued to all votaries of fashion to i attend the weekly ceremonies of wor- ship. This was carried on by each
 candidate for fame by. dropping a votive offering, in the form of poetry,
 Into the urn. These were carried around in solemn procession and fin ally read aloud, the high priestess placing a wreath upon the heads of | those who had written the four best poems. These meetings continued for several years until someone desecrat- ed the sacred urn by placing in it a piece of poetry which made all the | ladies blush when it was read aloud.
 The urn was closed after this and
 the meetings suspended forever. Lady i Miller died in June, 17S1.

FASHION NOTES

At Saratoga, which is very fashion able this season, black and white are said to be prominent colors
 AccOrdeon pleating has taken pos session of every realm of fashion. It is seen in the smartest new serge dresses and in the smartest Georgette crepe underclothes.
 A nightdress that every one who has seen it has been compelled to ad- mire has it's long lines of pink accor- deon pleatipg attached to an Empire bodice. Two deep tucks emphasize the Empire line. The neck part is reminiscent of baby guimpe.
 Some new effects in Arlette crepe are now appearing. They are less ex- pensive than the first models shown. One set is trimmed with dotted Geor- gette.
 A simple Arlette crepe nightgown has a picot edge and a. ribbon run through at the shoulders. The grace and beauty are all in the handsome material.
 Everywhere one goes it is observa- ble that skirts have become much longer. This accentuates any over drapery or tunic worn above.
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1918-08-24

Two years of popularity for ging- ham has evidently entrenched it firm ly as permanently desirable pattern for we constantly find that some of the most srnartly gowned women de- mand plaid in some form, either in cotton or silk or as a trimming for q one-hued gown.
 One of the most fetching suits Ma dame created recently was of dull green, fur-trimmed, and relieved by splashes of plaid as trimming. It was for slender young matron who insisted on having a close-ftting suit, tight of sleeve and high as to neck
 Ordinarily, Madame would have done all she could to discourage an ambition for this kind of costume on the part of an overly slender type. But in this particular case it was possible by introducing some counterbalancing effect to give the lady the kind of costume her heart had been set on, and yet supply her with a gown be- coming in every sense of the word.
 For we find in the use of plaid as trimming that you can even give a tall, thin person a plaited gown, and as long as it is trimmed with plaid in good lines it will give breadth and grace to the figure.
 This particular model Is of bottle green duvetyne. The skirt is plain except for a huge sash. and stream CTS of plain green velvet The bottom of the skirt is outlined with sealskin
