Recipe for Meringue.

Good meringue is a simple matter to make. yet it is surp- izing how ire quent1y we are set down to buildings and custards with frothy insipid foam on the top. Two eggs are sufficient to make a thick merinsue for one GUS tard: three eggs will cover two GUS tards. A well made meringue has crisp brown crust on the top, like egg kisses, and this is only to be obtained by hard beating and enough sugar Brown the meringue in slow oven. When brown, pull it to the edge of the shelf and leave the oven door open for minute or two, then remove to a warm spot in the kitchen till needed. It Is sudden coolings that make mer- ingues fall, but well-made meringue stands a far better chance of remain ing stiff than the foamy kind.

scheme borrowed from the pheasant's s plumage is mostly used, enlivened with Things of floral printed silk or gayly tinted satin. It Is noted that the majority of long wraps with draped sleeves or shoulder effects, fasten at one side, single button being sufficient for the purpose of adjustment. ysl- '. Black ve1veteen is an exceedingly smart wrap material and some ele- gant-looking straight line models are developed in velveteen. One that fas- tens straight down the front has the neck finished with a large cape collar stitched at the lower edge with a mar row band of it's own material. Deep tucn-back cuffs finish the one-piece sleeves and there are large pockets Of simple design. A straight belt is slipped through openings at the un- der arm seams and fastened at the front to hold in the fitness at the waist, the back being allowed to hang free.
 Not all of the smart coats are long, howeve-. There are numerous short models for women who affect the youthful. A particularly good one is in plaid velours with converti- ble collar that may be rolled with the fronts Of the coat or closed to the neck. Extensions on the fronts below the narrow self-be1t ere stitched to form deep pockets. Turn-back cuffs trim the two-piece sleeves and, if the coat is made of plain material, they would be more effective stitched with heavy silk or narrow soutache braid.
 From Paris there comes happy in- spiration for the shoulder cape to be made Of fur or one of the fashionable pile fabrics. The cape is slightly gathered at the neck and finished with a stole collar which ta,stens in
 ichu effect. The ends of the stole are trimmed with tiny patch pockets and both cape and stole are mounted on a rich golden color satin lining. The low shoulder line is featured On a number of charming eapes, and coats of novel design frequently have this odd shoulder also.
 FTail1ers are of ar.esting interest, not because they. exploit any new fea- lures, but because of the novelty of the fabrics in which they are deve1- l oped. Striped effects have come into a | new vogue and they are manipulated with great clever ness on some of the i jackets. In fact the new suits depend
 chiefly upon their jackets for thefi
 originality and novel style notes
 While many tail1eurs have the jac

kets trimmed with deep shawl collars of fur. they are qually smart made entirely of one material, with sep arate furs added as occasion requires. A number of suit jackets shown in advance of the winter resort season are trimmed with deep collars such as are seen on coats.
 Remarkable things are done with soft sating and supple velvets in cater ing to the afternoon or tea-hour needs of the wen-dressed woman. A new fancy. which is sure of fashionable acceptance, is to combine a plaited skirt of novelty satin with a costume blouse of velvet. The costume blouses age delightfully."- simple and, as rule, are worn outside the skirt. One that falls to the hips is held in with a self at the sides and back, the front being allowed to hang free. It forms 8 panel, the lower edge of which is trimmed with a handsome embroidery design developed in che nille and heavy silk. The simplest of stitches are employed to work up the embroidery unpadded satin and alarming. The wide collar and flare sleeves are also trimmed with stitch ing.
 For a satin frock there comes a de- sign with plain blouse trimmed with a square lace collar, put on reve-sely. The skirt is a two-piece affair, with gathered tunic which falls in a point at one side. About the lower edge of the tunic huge punches of grapes are embroidered in self-co1or, with foliage in dark brown and green and tiny rays of gold. Designers Of smart clothes are inspired by the peasants of Southern Europe nc. only in the development of blouses, but in the employment of embroideries, using dashing spots of color on dark back grounds to gain original effects.

An inter- esting outergarment is coat in dark brown velours with. open neck and large collar. The sleeves are in two sections and are sewn to openings in the underarm seams that take the place of regulation a-mholes. The collar may be of fur or fur-material, or it may be of self-fabric enhanced with silk stitching. Brown is as fash 1onable a color for wraps as it is for tailleu-s this season and the
