Sammy Jay MisIeads Buster
Bear.

When people refuse to believe that
you have seen a thing the best way
to prove it is to show it to them. That
is just what Sammy Jay thought when
he started to lead Buster Bear to
where Prickly Porky was hiding.
Buster should see for himself that
Prickly Porky had lost most OF his
little spears. Sammy was 50 indignant
because Buster doubted his word that
at first his only thought was to prove
to Buster that he had told the truth.
But underneath that pointed cap
Sammy Jay wears are some Of the
smartest wits in all the Green For
est. Hardly had he started to show
Buster Bear the way when he be-
gan to suspect that Buster might be
whole lot more interested in
Prickly Porky than from mere curl
osity to see him without his little
spears. Sammy glanced back at
Buster shuhling along on the ground
after him. Never had he seen Buster
quite so thin.
Buster must be terribly hungry .''

IN A JAR.

Why do American housewives stew
in stewpan? Why do they not follow
the example of thrifty European
women. who. for many centuries, have
stewed in jar?
The economical advantage Of the
stewing jar over the stewpan is obvi-
ous. The jar retxins 1Seat much longer

tion 10 deemed exDedient
For tho purpose Of stewing, q gray
Elased earthenware jar With = closely
fitting lid is the best. RED Jars some
times give way to the action Of heat
and salt and so crack and wear out
To stew meat in a jar prepare it as
you would for ordinary stewing-the
English housewife, BY the way, al
place it over the fre or in the oven.
BY an occasional shaking of the jar
the meat can be kept from sticking.
The cover should be removed as few
times as possible. in order not to per-
init the heat to escape unnecessarily

Made of Gingham.

Dame Fashion may be Q hckle jade in
some respects. but sometimes she has
the good sense to be true to something
wen worth while rather longer than we
expected her to. Take ginEham for In
stance. She first fancied it as mate
rial for smart summer hocks late in the
summer Of 1917. As We an expected 1T,
it hsted over-this whim-till the sum-
n,er a 1918. and. though it became i'm
menseiy popular, 1t was not run to the
ground as fashions that become i'm
menssfy popular 50 often are. To be
sure. good quality sinshAms were so
looking cheap, but still gingham dresses
were 50 generally worn by women OF all
classes Who wished to be smartly at
tired in warm weather that one could
hardly call the idea exclusive as 1t was
when II was first launched.
And the amazing thing is that As
plans for this springs thin frocks are
laid-fof, Of course. the plans are all
made as soon as women begin to flock
to the southern winter resorts--gingham
is in high honor. The only trouble is
that ginghams are not only dear, but
scarce. Perhaps that will help to make
it fashionable-just as furs have never
been 80 indispensable to the woman Of
soaring.
There win be dresses made entirely Of
eingham and dresses made Of thin white
fabrics trimmed with gingham. Then
there vfH be considerable use Of ging.

FOR THE LATE SUPPER.

And now that the war is over we
can again enjoy the festivity Of the
late supper which We were asked
to give up during war times as one
means OF conserving food. Perhaps
never indulsing in this before-bed-
time meal has been something of a
blessing to many persons; still hav-
ing to go to bed hungry after keep
ing late hours was indeed cherries
even for the patriotic ones who fol-
lowed the food administration Sug-
gestions unfiinchingly.
Now as matter of fact for the late
evening refreshment something sub
stantial. like the maligned welsh
rabbit. is really preferable to some
thing light and sweet. like ice cream
and cakes. The welsh rabbit-by the
way, incorrectly called rarebft-is
indigestible only when incorrectly
made or when eaten with an accom-
paniment Of varied sweets. But since
1t is as easy to make a good welsh
rabbit as a bad one. and since the
dish is meal in itself. and 80 can
be served without sweets. there 10 no
reason in the world why it should
be indigestible.
Men almost always like it better
than they like sweets. and it is more
rourishing. and so more refreshing.
than a lighter or sweeter dish.
The first essential to a good rabbit
is fresh cheese. Insist on having soft.
fresh cheese, for if it is at all hard
the rabbit will be stringy.
Cut a pound of cheese in small
pieces. Beat an egg. measure out a
cupful of milk. and mix half tea
spoon Of mustard with little paprika
and a pinch of salt.
Butter a chafing dish and heat 1t.
Put in the cheese and melt it over a
low flame. AS it melts press out all
the Jumps with a silver or wooden
spoon. When the cheese is melted
gradually stir in all the milk. as
smoothly as possible. Then add the
mustard. salt and paprika- At last
add the egg. stirring quickly as you
do so. and leave the rabbit on the
stove about minute longer. Have
thin slices of brown toast ready. or
else use toasted crackers, and pour
the rabbit over them.
When ale is substituted for milk
the rabbit is not so nourisi1ing.
Stuffed or plain olives are fitting
and appetizing accompaniment to
welsh rabbit.

Are You "House CIeaning?"

Perhaps it is true that: Things
aren't what they used to be-: that:
Living isn't what it was once" and
that: '"The good old days are no
more" There are always some mem
hers Of the older generation to assure
us that such is the case. But one
thing is certain-life is more worth
living in the first days of April now
that spring house cleaning isn't what
it used to be. Remember those car
pets that had to come up? Remember
the padding beneath those carpets?
through the carpets and lay atop the
padding. Remember the carpet
stretcher and the time there was
when mother and Bridget tried to
stretch the carpet back into shape
and the man by the day tried to put it
back with carpet tacks. Father had
to help when he came home. and
finally, Of course, the man from the
furniture store where the carpet was
bought had to come to do it profes-
sionally. And, Of course. some of
those carpet tacks wandered around
away from the room where they were
being used and were found by some
unsuspecting member Of the family
rather suddenly in the bottom of q
thin bedroom slipper.
No, that sort Of house cleaning is
a thing of the past in most house,
holds+although if truth must be told
there are not few houses where the
aIl-over carpet is still the mode Of
covering the floor.
Still we do have to "go over" the
house little more thoroughly at this
time of the year than on ordinary
cleaning expenditures. Warm days

FASHIONS

A good assortment Of separate
skirts for summer wear is very i'm
portant if a woman wishes to be
daintily dressed at all times at the
least possible expense. AS every
woman knows. the waist of dress
needs laundering and freshening up
much more frequently than the skirt i;
but If the frock is a one-piece affair
obviously the entire garment must
go to the tub every time any section
of it requires washing.
The separate skirt of white wash
able material will usually stand two
days wear. With a fresh blouse each
day a woman may have the immacu-
late daintiness that is the first rule
of good dressing.
Separate skirts have not shared with
frocks and suit skirts the rule con-
cernfng width and length. The sepa-
rate skirt is comfortably wide and
rarely less than five or six inches

HAM DELICIOUS.

Perhaps no article Of food had a
moro Interesting history than pork
and its products during the war.
First. ham and bacon and pork and
lard all scared SO high in price that
we couldn't buy them if We wanted to.
Then. we were asked not to eat them
on meatIess days and even on other
days to eat as little as we could of
them. Then suddenly tho market was
glutted with pork and pork products.
and it became our patriotic duty to
devour them
Now there isn't any question Of pa
triotism connected with them at all.
We can eat what we please and re-
frain from eating what we please
And So we may. il we wish. prepare
we used to like, with ham as a foun-
dation, in the days before the war.
Here are few of them worth repeat

from the ground. whereas dress and
suit skirts average three to four
inches from the ground, and in many
cases they are narrower than is con-
sistent with comfort in walking.
The sketch gives a suggestion for
a very smart tailored skirt Of tub
fabric. It is plain and fastens at
one side with buttons. The opening
is from waist to hip line and the
row Of Ddttons f. continued to the
edge Of the skirt merely as 4 decora-
ton. It is noticeable that very few
skirts opening entirely from top to
bottom are shown this season. This
doubtless will be a cause for real
relief to the 1Aundress. Skirts that
may be laid fiat on the ironing board
are SO much easier to iron than those
that must be slipped over.
The real feature Of the skirt here
shown fs the arrangement of the
tucks. which overlap SO that stitch
ing shows only on the upper one.
