at the right Of the group. 1t is OF

is concealed by short, uncurled os

The place Of honor at the center OF

looks in another direction for its novel
charm. 1t Is one of those shaggy af.
fairs that call to mind the headwear Of
Robinson Crusoe. Paris has made
goats hair-called by another name

Against the coming of midwinter, a
new lot Of coats, for lucky little girls,
have come to light In the shops. If
they ever get close enough to Jack
Frost to speak to him their wearers
will be sure to laugh in his face for it
will take his bitterest mood to prove
him an enemy to their comfort. These
coats are most often of thick, soft
woolly cloths made double-breasted
and having the contest of collars. Some
of them look as if Mary's faithful
lamb had been skinned and it's pelt
converted into a coat without going
through the hands of the spinners and
weavers. Lovely and cozy describes
them and they are of course, the prod
uct of the looms which do miracles
with woods. The little coats Of thick
cloths are plain with inset pockets
and sleeves that reach to the knucklss,
so that hands thrust into pockets are
entirely lost sight of. They are made
with turnover collars and narrow belts
of the material and they are long
enough to reach below the knees.
There are some pretty coats of vel
veteen lined with silk. These are
sometimes made with blouse and skirt
and sometimes straight Cuffs and
very wide muffier collars Of fur fabric

using absolutely everything edible and
wearable. There is great satisfaction
In making something worth while from
food or clothing. There are many
ways that a dollar thus saved 1nay be
used toward added comfort, or extra
hospitality, or for some special treat
which the household can all enjoy, for
"a dollar saved is dollar earned"
There are few hOusekeepers who need
to be told how to save in large things
Chose that do, won't read this any,
way), but 1t is in the little leaks and
small wastes that count into the dol
lars during the years.
Do you scrape your molding board
carefully after using 1t for pastry,
bread, biscuit or cookies, and throw
the waste into the garbage can? All
such bits should be sifted to remove
the flour, then add to the sour milk
pitcher or jar. When using sour milk
for griddle cakes or any other food,
stir it well, and the bits of pastry will
add shortening to the dish.
The homely, common dishes, such as
beef stew, which have been served for
years, may be made into q dish of real
elegance If one-half cupful of stuffed
olives, a dash or two of paprika and
a sprinkling Of parsley is added, Just
before taking up.
A bit Of cooked ham Of any kind put
through the meat grinder adds flavor
to a dish Of Spanish rice or q white
sauce.
A cut lemon or Bermuda onion may
be kept fresh a long time by turning
the cut side down on plate and COW
ering with waxed paper.
Preserved citron melon, a pint Of 1t
added to mincemeat, makes a most de-
lightful addition. II the citron is put
through a grinder before preserving, 1t
will be found more enjoyable and may
then be used as garnish for pud-
dings, ice creams and such dishes.
Surgeons tape is most valuable
aid in the household. It will stop a
leak for the time being in a hot water
bottle, cure n corn If renewed occa-
sionally and kept on to soften and
protect the foot from friction.

Just now millinery shops and their
patrons are concerning themselves
with hats for midwinter. Turbans and
off-the-face hats, small and medium in
size, make up big percentage of the
displays, although they are not alone
In their glory. There are plenty Of
large, picturesque models for those
who wear them well. But the smaller
hats are prominent in every class Of
millinery; chic tailored hats for the
street, semi-dress hats and brilliant
models for afternoon wear-all prove
successful in the smaller shapes.
The Napoleon hat, full of dash and
style, seems to be the inspiration of
many models. One Interpretation Of it
appears at the top of the group Of
small and medium hats shown here.
This Is brilliant hat of black paon
velvet adorned with long stitches of
chenille and an occasional velvet bios
som set fiat against the upturned brim
This is all that can be told of 1t In
the way of description but the picture
SHOWS it's style and youthfuness-th
Intangible things that make it fit com
pany for a handsome afternoon frock
or at home with a tailored coat.
The small velvet turban at the left
made Of tucked velvet, will appeal to
the matron who insists upon smart
millinery with lines and shape suited
to her face. A long sweeping wing
at the front consents to rest where it
~, in the company of two handsome
ornamental pins, with large heads,
that are thrust through it. 1t is a
shope, TINT will look well in any Of the

with deep set-in pockets show then
equal to battling with the cold, ever
though they are not as sturdy lookinf
as the woolly coats. Besides these
there are many plush coats made like
the woolly ones, usually in dark COLOR
with plush collars that initiate beaver
and buttons covered with beaver plush
They are as warm as the wOOlly coats
and as dressy as the velvet ones
Finally, there are fur coats for little
folks. These days one cannot ever
whisper "furs" without saying money
in loud tone of voice, so only little
rich girls will find themselves wearing
coats that are made Of pelts that once
defended small friends Of theirs against
the cold. Rabbits, muskrats and SPUR
rels havesbeen sacrificed to make warn
coats for the small girls, white Dummies
for the tiniest ones and just plain rab
bits for girls as big as the little miss
pictured. The shawl collar looks at
If it were sealskin but it is not. Mollie
Cottontail furnished the fur and the
furrier dyed it. 1t is not prettier OF
more comfortable than the other coats
but it requires much more work tt
make it-and thereby hangs the tale
of its long price. Such a coat costs 6
little more than hundred dollars.

from all over the city came straight
from his beak, the hollow upper and
lower halves of which he was striking
together with incredible rapidly"
In the Bazaars and Square.
The bazaars of Mosul are not the
attractive places they might be ex-
pected to be in city of so much traf-
tic. AS William Warfeld says In his
book, "The Gate Of Asia" they are
rarely rooted, and are furnished only
with the commoneSt wares The shop
keepers are generally Christians, but
there are many Arabs. Garden prod
uce is often sold in the squares in open
markets, and at any time vendors may
be seen talking in the streets, with
eggs or cucumbers in a basket, while
the mosque courtyards are favored
places for sweetmeat sellers, who dis
play Turkish delight on scalloped
copper trays. The baZaars radiate
from picturesque a square quite near
the bridge, which is the center of the
town. To the south and southwest
are the diapers, shoemakers and har-
ness makers; to the northwest the
greengrocers, while the potters and
dealers in hardware are to be found
in narrow stores opening on a street
that runs to the north.
AS to the square itself, 1t is, Of
af he fnY tinry
places of Mosul. Here the caravans
are gathered together, and their own
ers sit on the famous second-story
gallery of a coffee shop, while the
muleteers stroll about the crowded
place, or lounge among bales covered
with brown and white striped sack
cloth. These men are almost always
Kurds, those from the southern and
eastern tribes dressed in tuniCs, Zou-
ave jackets and turbans. They wear
baggy trousers reaching to their feet,
which are covered with brogues of
heavy hemp or rawhide.
Site Of Ancient Nineveh.
For many people the great attrac-
tioh oF a visit to Mosul, the most in
accessible place in the sultan'S domin-
| ion, lies across the famous bridge of
| boats" at the other side of the Tigris,
where the huge, formless mounds, ris-
| ing up out of the sand, mark the site
of the ancient city of Nineveh. Any
attempt to tell the story Of Nineveh
| would involve a journey back to the
very beginning of things. Later AS
| syrian writer's declare with confidence
! that its story ran back as q matter OF
course to the Creation of the world"
but, as a matter of fact, the first firm
ground in the midst of tradition is
reached about the year 2200 B. c. That
wonderfully vivid period in Nineveh's
history with which the world, espe-
cially recently, has become familiar,
lies between the ninth and sixth cen
turtles B. G. In this period the reign
of Sennacherib is of course by far
the most important
| Nineveh, however, depended entire
ly for its greatness and power upon
the conquering spirit Of its rulers and
the military glory and powers of its
armies, and when these were ultimate
ly defeated the city fell, never to rise
again, and its very site was quickly
l forgotten among the nations

large trout. Cash each side in half
a dozen places, lay in each cash a
lardoon of fat salt pork, then brush
the fish inside and out with melted
butter mixed with lemon juice. Put a
rack in the baking pan, on it lay the
fish, pour cupful of boiling water in
the bottom and place in a very hot
oven. Allow twelve minutes to the
pound and haste three or four times
with melted butter. Cook in a sauce
pan one tablespoonful of butter and
flour together. When the fish is re-
moved from the pan pour the water
from the pan into the thickened butter,
add salt pepper, and enough kitchen
bouquet or caramel to make brown
sauce; add tablespoonful Of lemon
juice and one-half cupful Of finely
chopped shrimpS. If the sauce seems
too thick, add boiling water and boil
I'D again. Garnish the fish with pars-
ley and quarters Of lemon.
Piquant stuffino.-Pour half cupful
Of vinegar over three cupfuls Of
crumbs, squeeze dry, add to the
crumbs one-half cupful of melted but
ter or butter substitute. one cupful Of
chopped olives, three chopped pickles,
one small green pepper, finely chopped,
salt, pepper and curry powder to taste.
Broiled Fish.-Any good sized fish
of firm flesh may be selected for broil-
ing. Split it from head to tail and re-
move the back bone if desired. Brush
with melted butter and broil in a wire
broiler over a clear frs. A ive-pound
fish will require twenty-five minutes.
Serve garnished with latticed potatoes
which have been fried golden brown
in deep fat; add also the usual lemon
quarters and a bit Of parsley.
Fresh Fish BaIIs.-Flake any left
over fish and mix 1t with an equal
quantity of seasoned mashed potatoes,
fresh and hot; make into balls, add
egg to the potato or dip in egg and
fry. Boiled rice is a good substitute
for potato.

MosuI's Many Storks.

The old town, with it's strangely
surrounded by half-ruined wall, built
in modern times as protection
against the Shammar Arabs. Every
one remarks on the narrow streets of
Mosul, on its white, crumbling houses,
on the gypsum dust which falls con-
stantly from the walls over everything
and upon the storks. Indeed the
storks of Mosul are apparently it's
most remarkable feature.
Discussing the matter one authority
tells how, in the cool of the evening"
the citizens of Mosul share their
housetops with innumerable storks,
who build their ragged nests on the
highest places Sin utter disregard of
the laws of gravity" Four great, pre-
posterous specimens Of the species
stood, in the early morning, on wall
beside the room where he was, he con-
tinues, and he dimly realized that
they were performing their morning
| toilet. They took no notice Of him.
But loud noise like someone rafting
a stick in a wooden bucket attracted
his attention. Then somebody else
with another bucket made a similar
noise in different key, and he won
dered what in the world could they be
| doing to the buckets. Then 1t dawned
upon him that half the population of
Mosul must be rattling buckets, for
the sound came from far and near,
faint or loud according to distance,
and in a hundred different keys. Then
came q loud rattle close beside him.
"Witnin nine feet Of him. he says,
