New York.-Womcn are of many
minds concerning clothes. Some insist
that they will have everything made in
the house, giving the seamstresses
chance to live; that they will study
the best fashions for inspirational
work In their own sewing rooms.
Others insist that they will spend
this spring altering clothes that are al
most as good as new, while others say
that it is patriotic to spend.
1t is quite well, observes promi-
nent fashion writer that there are seq
ments of differing thought. The con-
tinent is so full of women that they
can group themselves into thousands
Of units, each with but a single pur-
pose, and everybody will be benefited.
Every woman does not see economy
in the same way. 1t would be foolish
therefore. to preach the same sermon
to the mass. There Is no doubt that
several thousands of women are de-
batting. with intelligence and with
stimulating effort at sacrifice, this
question OF spring cOstumery; but, as
far as the prophet can see into the
future, business will not suffer by this
discussion.
There will be hundreds of gowns re-
modelled in the sewing rooms of
homes; there will be thousands of
gowns bought for less than $50 by
women who once paid over 500 for
them; there will be a revival of In
dividual work on Clothes and less will
be left to the shops and the dress
makers; but there is enough money In
this country and sufficient need and
desire for spending to have everyone
made easy and comfortable.
AS for the business of altering
clothes at home, words of wisdom and
kindness should be said in favor of It,.
Much can be done TO augment n ward
robe in this manner; but there will al
ways remain the necessity for one new
costume, no matter how earnest II
worker the sewing woman may be.
1t will not be an easy season for
her who cOntemplates transforming
her old clothes into new ones. At first
glance she may think that things have
remained much as they We're. but as
the season advances she will find that
the changes have been drastic.
The French have subtly inserted in
to every garment, and every detail Of
the garment, sufficient change from
what has been to upset the calcutta
lions of thousands who wanted to
wear the clothes they possessed.
Skirts Very Narrow.
Skirts, for instance: The slightest
flare at any seam makes even a con-
scrvativc woman wearing such 81 gar
ment wish she had stayed at home or
remodeled her gown before she went
out. Fortunately, the alteration from
wide to q narrow silhouette is mas
tered even by those who do not claim
to be experts. The seams of a tail
ored skirt for instance, are merely
ripped upward from the bottom and
taken il as Il continuation of the
straight line from the hips.
The hem of frOCks cannot Er- han
died in so simple way; but, fortu-
nately for the economical woman or

Brazilian SaIad.-A most delightful
company salad is this: All an equal
quantity Of shredded fresh pineapple,
apples cut in shOestring strips, and cell
cry, cut in the same way, let the celery
stand in ice water until needed, cover
the apple with lemon Juice and water
If not used at once. as it turns brown.
Mix all the above ingredients and add
fourth of the quantity of carefully
peeled Brazil nuts which have been
cut in strips and soaked in milk to
soften, if at all hard. Mix well and
add mayonnaise dressing. Serve in
nests of lettuce.
Cheese In various forms as salad or
In combination with vegetables in
cream sauce Is most wholesome and
nutritious dish.
A delicious flavor for lamb which Is
to be eaten cold is given by adding a
stick Of cinnamon and few cloves to
the water used when basting, during
roasting. Mint may be used instead If
preferred.
Try cutting out n small portion Of
oil food, especially fats, sugar, and
meats, the weight will gradually re-
duce to normal, the health will be bet
ter and work In an unusual degree
can be accomplished without fatigue.
Endurance is the browning quality,
And patience all the passion of great
hearts. }. r Lowell

Gets Big Wolf.

J. w. Fountain, a rancher of the Nc
Kenzie Valley, living near Walterville,
Ore, recently brought to Eugene the
pelt of huge black wolf trapped by
him.
He caught it in two traps, set close
to each other, and the animal had both
broken and would have escaped soon
had Mr.. Fountain not arrived when he
did. There are several of these ami
mails in that vicinity, and the ranchers
have been losing cattle and sheep as a
result of their depredatons.
This wolf was one of the largest
ever seen in this county, measuring
over eight feet from tip to tip.

has been. and therefore, everything is
merely revived"
When the elbow sleeve was CO" sid
cred by Paris as an American fashion
projected through the demand for con-
venience, it was looked upon by the
ultra-smart French designer as part
and parcel Of that wOrk-a-day cos
tumery which the Americans demand
ed and with which the European ele-
gante would have nothing to do. We
were called a working people.
After while Europe as well as
America adopted the short sleeve, and
those in this country who were fas-
tidi0us began to side with the French
in their belief that the fashion was
in elegant. For three years we wit
messed streets filled with girls who
wore elbow sleeves in separate white
blouses, with Dutch necks, no collars
no gloves, and separate skirts. That
was an ugly day in costumery. Let us
hope that it will not be revived, al
though there is every evidence that
the seeds Of this evil have already been
sown.
T,,E thnCn oI, C1n tob
worn in the Directoire with every kind
of gown and which were practically
covered by rare old cashmere shawls,
are not the only short ones that this
spring has produced. We are evident
ly In for reign of abbreviated arm COW
erings, inspiration for which has been
gotten from all the centuries.
The SurpIice Movement Wins.
Another change in the direction Of
fabrics across the body has been made
by the French, and to follow 1t will re-
Quire ingenious alterations on the part
Of the American woman. Evidently
there is an idea that the fewer the
buttons the better the frock. We have
gone back to the time when strings
held fabrics together and the cloth was
cut in such a way that it remained
where 1t was placed on the body.
Possibly 1t would be more compre-
hensive to put the whole thing into the
statement that the more we are wrap
ped across the body the better dressed
we are today.
This movement of fabric finds It's
most commonplace exploitation in the
surplice bodice or jacket. Afternoon
gowns and the most elaborate evening
frocks have bodices that are merely
elongated scarfs with armholes. They
wrap around the figure at the waist
line and the back, front or sides.
Separate surpllce bodices are not
considered too ignoble to be attached
to brilliant evening skirt. When the
latter is of dlaphanous and frivolous
fabric the bodice may be OF satin, bro
cade or tissue, and when 1t finishes its
bias movement about the figure 1t is
held Mt the side with q great gold rose.

the one whose patriotism has made
her think that she should be economi-
zeal In this question of apparel, the
French have handed us out in a gen.
erous manner two of three very clev-
er tricks that will turn the old into
the new.
One Of them Is the holding In of a
slightly full skirt by loose band be-
ow the knees, finishing In a bow at
he side.
Another trick is the gathering In of
he fullness at the side Of skirt TO
straight, embroidered band, which
s strongly reminiscent of the first
lobble skirts.
The women in the sewing room finds
ielight In the fact that fullness Is not
aboo. She realizes that she can have
whatever material she desires In n
kirt If 1t does not flare away from
be hips or the knees.

tage cheese will give rs much protein
as quarter of pound Of sirloin
steak or cupful of beans Is as rich
In protein as one-fourth of a pound of
steak. The flavor of meat Is so we'll
liked that that Is the main reason
1t is so hard to substitute other foods
for 1t. A very small bit of meat Zone
ounce) will season other foods like
rice, or combinations of vegetables, so
that the dish will be well favored and
meat will be saved. If there are six
to be served. six ounces of meat will
be sufficient.
One may make cottage cheese or
buy It at almost any cream station.
To prepare It, warm sour milk at
low temperature on the back of part
of the stove, or set the bowl into
pan of hot water. When the curd
and whey have separated, pour the
mixture through n sieve. Mix the
curd with spoon and let 1t drain;
when well drained, mix with salt, but
ter, cayenne and enough cream to
make 1t of the right consistency. The
whey may be used to make bread,
many cooks preferring it to any other
liquid.
Nuts of various kinds vary as to
their nutritive value. Twenty peanuts
are equal TO an inch cube of good
cheese. The peanut butter may be
used In many dishes to take the place
of the peanut, as it Is in more avail
able form. Peanuts should be we'll
ground and thoroughly mastlcated to
be well digested.
When buying bananas take those
that are firm but have dark skins. A
green banana should never be used
unless thoroughly baked and even
then they are not as wholesome as
well ripened ones. Dates and figs are
most wholesome sweets, they or
prunes well cooked may be added to
breakfast food few moments before
serving, doing away with sugar on the
cereal.
