Oh lace is revival of a bygone day,
for 1t has been many years since the
lace trimmed ball gown. This type of
frock is rather refreshing after the
more sophisticated ones of brocade and
tnsel which prospered for a time. OF
course satin, white or palest flesh piuk,
Is used as a foundation for the tulle
and lace dancing frocks. The satin
foundation is tight and narrow and
short and the overdraperies are SO
placed that they form the extended hip
seam not only on maturer models but
on the most youthful as well. One
maker has pailletted an underneath
layer of tulle with silver spangles
which show with just enough scintilla-
tion through the gauzy meshes.
Simplicity the Debutante's Note.
One expects the debutante 70 be
gowned with simplicity, and wise
mothers follow this rule in the choice
not only OF the debuting gown but in
the selection OF the greater part of the
wardrobe as well. The simpler fabrics
such as chiffons and georgettes are
preferred to the heavier metallic bro
cade and velvets. The gowns OF pastel
taffetas are lovely for informal occa-
sions. With these little things with
their long slender bodices, pointed in
front and fitted with a sash in the
back. are worn tiny caps Of the pastel
silk to match the dress This is a
Partisan fashion just being shown over

Jacket with inverted pleats and belted
waist is more in favor than ever.
It Is to the young girl that the
lovely overblouses will appeal the most.
Some Of these, to be worn with
skirts of heavy black or midnight blue,
are quite long, reaching to within a
foot Of the hem. Such an overblouse
OF sand colored georgette is braided
from throat to hem In black and gold
threads and held In at the waist line
with a string belt braided with black
and gold. This is worn over a black
satin skirt. A companion frock to
this, reproduced in midnight blut
serge, has the very long overblouse oil
black satin embroidered in Chinese
motifs in colored threads and 9ug-
gesting a mandarin's coat. The en-
broidery is deftly done and not in the
least garish or conspicuous.
The newest sport skirts are pleated
of plaid and worn with velvet jackets
or silken sweaters in dark tones. The
sweater Is feature of ones wardrobe
which must not be overlooked either
by young or old. The silken sweaters
with their excellent lines and good
service have returned to favor and are
preferred for genuine use In the darker
shades, browns, blacks ana blues. Now
and then the debutante exercises her
ingenuity and Ightens the dark tones
by the introduction Of some gay and
contrasting checks or stripes inter-
woven in the knitting.
The New Prince OF Wales Coat.
A rumor from across the sea tells
US that a new coat for the young girl
has been copied from one of the Prince
of Wales's. Doubtless he will wear
such a coat in this country and it
is Just as well to know that the Eng
hsh girls have adopted it as the pre-
ferred winter wrap. The coat in ques-
ton is quite long with slightly fiaring
skirts. A wide and rolling collar ended
at the waist line with one button to
fasten the coat together. 1t does sound
smart and can be charmingly developed
in almost every material and trimmed
to advantage with large fur collar.
The same rumor says that the Sam
Browne belt, which was so much worn
by officers, accustomed men to their
waistline and now our new fall suits
with the funny little pirched in waists
and fiaring coat skirts are an indirect
outgrowth OF the officers belted fash
ion. One of our American officers
says that the British stopped the war
every day at 4:30 to have tea, and
always puttees and Sam Browne belts
were carefully removed for this mo-
ment of relaxation and refreshment.
Who would have thought that our
winter suits would still pay tribute to
the glorious men who have added a
new lustre to England's name? To
women much is given. and because OF
the pleasing origin of the ripple coat
with its narrow and pinched waist 1
am sure it will be proudly and ubiqui-
tously worn.

STERILE HOG CHOLERA SERUM
STANDS TEST.

The division Of veterinary medicine
of the Minnesota experiment station
has put under rigid test a quantity OF
clear sterile hog cholera serum, which
is being produced by several CONNER
cial firms, and finds it to be satisfactory
in every respect. The sterilized serum
costs $2.55 per 100 cubic centimeters,
which is little above the price of the
old serum. However, the size of the
dosage recommended is less, especially
for the larger swine.
DR.. C. P. Fitch, head Of tho division,
believes that the use of the clear ster-
lie serum has certain advantages, espec1'
ally when minimizing large pigs.
HOne is sure,' he says, "when using
this product that no foreign material
OF bacteria is introduced in the serum:
Yet, we should keep clearly in mind
that the bloody or old anti-hog cholera
serum is an efficient agent in the pre-
vention of hog cholera. It is for each
man to decide for himself which he Will
use. The clear sterile serum is certain

Beet Sugar Values
Equal to Those Of Cane.
Now that the new crop of western
beet sugar is becoming available, house
keepers are asking many questions as
to it's value compared with cane sugar
These queries are answered by Miss
Mildred Weigley, head of the home
economics division of the state agricul
tural college, who says: "Beet sugar
has a chemical composition identical
with cane sugar. Pound for pound the
two sugars have equal food value and
equal sweetness. There is no reason
why beet sugar should not be used in
place of cane sugar in any kind OF
cooking including the making Of pre-
serves and jellies.'
