Once upon time--that Is before
the war-.nothing ever presumed to
dispute the supremacy of the tailored
suit for street wear, and nothing will
ever outclass it. But tailored suits
require men to make them and In
France the men were gone to war.
So 'the dressmaker's dress" came in,
the one-piece, daytime frock made its
appearance on the street. We have
gone further now, as war has COM
PEELED economy. and we have two-in-
one frocks and daytime frocks that
are evidently made for street wear in
place of suit.
Both a tailored suit and daytime
frock for street wear are shown in
the illustration as examples of good
styles for young women. In the suit
the coat is made interesting by point
ed panels at the back and front, over
tapping pointed side pieces and fin
ished with rows of large bone buttons
in its skirt. The sleeves are long and
a white embroidered overcollar calls
attention to the fact that the coat is

Some Food Facts That Every
body Ought to Know

The food we eat is like the fuel that
is fed to an engine. When during the
forenoon following a hasty breakfast
of toast and coffee you feel faiRt and
hungry 1t is your body crying out for
fuel.
Many, people who are under weight,
thin, pale and run down, are actually
starving to death because they do not
get the proper amount of nourishment
from the food they eat. Such people
can gain weight only by taking food
that is easily absorbed by the system
and such q food tonic is Father Johns
Medicine which has tremendous food
value.
Scientific tests by expert chemists
prove that Father Johns Medicine is
six times more nourishing than pure
milk and many times more valuable as
flesh building food than many of the
common articles of diet. Crowded with
nourishment and absolutely free from
dangerous drugs and alcohol Father
Johns Medicine is recognized as the
safest tonic flesh builder and tonic
food for all the family.

meals and at bedtime and you will find
yourself gaining flesh and strength

sweetened whipped cream and you
have a dessert which Is both nutritious
and dainty.
Tapioca and Date sponge.-Put a
scant half teaspoonful of salt and
pint of boiling water in the upper part
of double boiler, stir in one-third of
a cupful of minute tapioca and stir
lightly until 1t thickens, then cover and
COOK until the tapioca is transparent.
Pour boiling water over half pound
of dates, stir, then skim them, cut and
dry in the oven. Cut in sections, re-
moving the pits and stir into the tapi-
oca with one-fourth cupful of sugar
and the juice Of large lemon. Beat
the whites of two eggs and fold into
the mixture. Serve with sugar and
cream.
Green Pea Soup-To serve ten peo-
pie boil two quarts of green peas in
two quarts of water with an onion and
three sprigs of parsley. Remove the
onion and parley and press the peas
through a pnree sieve, dlluting mean
while with the vegetable liquor saved
from the cooked peas. Add quart of
chicken broth and stir until boiling,
cook ten minutes, add two teaspoon
fuls of salt, teaspoonful of sugar
and dash of pepper. Serve very hot.
Chop Suey.-Heat half cupful of
sweet fat in kettle, add one pound of
chicken cut into bits, remove chicken

pork also cut in bits, return the chick

water and one cupful of blanched and
finely chopped peanuts. Add salt and
pepper to taste and boil one-half hour.
A juicy pie may still be palatable
and save it's juice by using an egg
beaten with the sugar and little
flour well stirred into the fruit when
putting 1t into the crust. Another
method to save the juice in the pie is
to insert paper funnel in one of the
small openings of the crust. The juice
boils up but does not escape.

cut high In the neck at the back,
which is characteristic of this seasons
coats. The skirt is plain, as it should
be, and is shorter than the modes of
the season authorize-a concession to
the youthfulness of its wearer.
The dress of navy blue satin Is
somewhat complicated. The skirt Is
In one piece but has the effect of a
tunic caught up at the sides near the
bottom with satin-coyered buttons.
The bodice gives the impression of a
short coat, open in front to the waist
line where it fastens with hook and
eye and is finished with two satin
covered buttons. 1t Is cleverly ex-
tended at each side to form panier
drapery over the hips. The ends Of
the drapery are brought up to the
bodice at the back. The narrow,
shawl collar and long sleeves, extend
ed into fiaring cuffs over the hand
and finished with small satin-covered
buttons, reveal expert designing. And
the wide, soft girdle on the front of
the skirt bears further witness to it.

watchman at one of the Panhandle

by firing a revolver promiscuously into
the dark and Silly atmosphere each

In millinery, as in other things, the
seasons styles have grayitated toward
few types that have established
themselves and will last as long as the
summer lasts-and perhaps longer.
One may be sure of them anywhere.
Among them are wide-brimmed and
moderately wide-brimmed sailor
shapes, small hats that have a sugges-
tion of the poke bonnet In their lines
and the cloche or drooping-brimmed
bell shape, with its brim little wider
than in the beginning of spring. These
persist among others that are almost
as popular; as small turbans and me-
dium-sized turbanlike shapes with spir-
tied brim lines and coronets. The last
is a type that women of middle age
like best
Plenty of variety appears In these
favored shapes in popular hats. One
does not look for eccentricities In the
shapes themselves; but in the trim
mings all sorts Of pretty whims find
expression, especially among street
hats. An example of this appears in
the smart hat with curled quill trim
ming that is shown in the accompany
ing picture. This model has been made
in black and In several colors-each
hat all In one color-with brim and
side crown Of caterpillar braid. facing
and top crown of satin. The quill

Is the spice of the creation. 1t departs
from the way Of quilts, leaving their
straight and narrow path to follow a
willful spiral of its own.
A beautiful wide-brimmed hat is
made Of crepe georgette faced with
braid. The upper part of the crown Is
covered with folds Of crepe and the
lower part with smooth band Of 1t

New Shaded Red.

The new shade of red known as
Wilson red or Swiss red is really very
taking, especially early In the spring
1t ought to look well even in mid
summer at the seashore or in the coun-
try, but of course the favor in which a
color Is held at this date Is no criterion
of the midsummer favor 1t may enjoy.
At all events. just now all sorts of
odds and ends are featured In this
clear new shade of red. Especially eff
fective are the many red beads that
shop keepers have dug up from some
forgotten corner and that manufacture
ers have rushed to the shops. They
are strikingiy pretty with white blouses

from shore to shore, there was no tele-

Mrs. Collamore was at one time
hospital nurse. She reduced the frac-
ture of her husbands leg while the
two little children looked on, sobbing
and wondering, and then tried to
think of way of sending a distress
signal to the mainland.
Mrs. Collamore remembered that
the big Blair house was electrically

Properly brewed tea is an important

Ceylon tea is the tea best liked for

Green tea known by gun powder,

much lighter in color, drink of high
fragrance, but a bit more harsh than

In many places certain springs or

Russians, we are apt to think, al
