and you surely have to be a pretty
good cook to make them.
With the young American cook he
ability to make mayonnaise, which
really doesn't involve any actual cook
ing at all, might be regarded as the
test. The young Englishwoman, how
ever. would feel that her ability to
shine as a good cook depended on her
ability to make a fine omlet. Really,
it is not such a difficult thing, though
you must have a little experience be-
f5re you can be sure of your results.
The results depend entirely on carry
ing out a few simple rules thoroughly.
There is no chance or trickery about
it. But you must bear in mind certain
things.
If you want q light omlet you must
beat the yolks and whites separately.
This means that they must be sepa-
rated and beaten each with clean
whisk If you put the yolkey whisk
into the whites they simply will not
froth as they should and your omlet
will not be a success.
Melt a little butter or fat on fry
ing pan. and when hot but not smoking
turn into it the yolks of two eggs we'll
beaten. Then turn the whites into the
frying pan and stir lightly together.
Turn the heat low and cover the fry
ing pan and let it cook until, when
you put fork into it. it seems to be
sponge like. BY this time the bottom
of the omlet should be evenly
Drowned.
Unless the heat has been too great
it should not be burned, and unless
the,e is too much fat it should not
have a hard crust but simply well
and evenly Drowned under surface.
When this stage is reached fold the
omlet with u fiat cake turner or pallet
knife and either slip it in the oven
for three or four minutes or else leave
it covered if possible over a very low
flame for the same length Of time.
Fashion Briefs.
In one respect is the young girl Of
this season dressed as her mother was
eighteen or twenty years ago. She
wears, as her mother did then, chiffon
and gauze and net scarfs stamped
about with flowers, borderwise. The
newest scarfs are seemingly exact
duplicates of those women used to
wear a score of years ago. They are
pretty, too, but not quite. so much in
keeping with the tone of modernity as
are the long 'swirls Of bright colored
tulle that seem to be their alternative.
Sometimes these tulle scarfs, very
wide, ale held in at the end with in
teresting tassels of barbaric colored
beads.
One of the new hand bags looks like
a squat little old lady>in a verw bouf-
fant skirt, fringed about the lower
edge. That is. the bag has such a
squat, plump silhouette that one can't
help thinking of a little old lady.
The two plumed fans are charming.
They are made simply of two big,
slightly curled plums-curled just
enough so that each frond curves
gracefully toward the end. They come,
of coure, in the usual vivid evening
orange, flame-as
well as in the daintier pinks and blues,
lavenders and yellows that always
charm in the evening.
A panel of light shade-beige or
gray-7up the front of some of the
laced black kid boots of the moment
adds distinction to them and gives an
trimming line and color
contrast.
Flowered silk umbrellas in fowcred
silk umbrella sheaths are sold in some
OF the smart shops. They are pretty |
note on a rainy day.
Steel rings are used on some of the
new suits in such way that they |
suggest a steel chain. They are not
actually linked, but each is Tapped
over the next to it, so that the appear
ance of chain is giver.
