TEMPTING RECIPES
"CheeSe Cakes"

Make a crust of 1 cup flour, 1 mix ingspoon shortening, a pinch each of salt, soda and cream Of tartar (bak- ing powder may be used if preferred) and sufficient water or milk to mois- ten. Roll fairly thin and cut the right size to cover the bottom and turn up a little on the sides of mu- fin pans. When the crusts are in place put a, dessertspoon of jam, stiff jelly or orange marmalade on each and cover with a plain cake batter made as follows: 1 cup sugar, 1 egg, 1 cup milk, 1-3 cup shortening, 1-2 teaspoon soda, teaspoon cream tar tar.
 These little cakes are excellent for lunches, as different jams or jellies give them variety, and they do not crumble like slice of cake. The name is derived from the fact that the original filling for the crusts was curds instead of jam and cake.

ETIQUETTE

AT THE THEATRE-When a young man and his lady friend at tend theatre, after giving the usher the checks for the seats. should the escort stand aside and allow his com panion to go down the aisle ahead of him to the row in which his seats are located, or should the young man pre- cede his lady friend down the aisle stepping saide on reaching the row and allowing the lady to pass ahead of him to the seats?
 In a friendly argument" concern ing the above, contend that the lat ter is more correct. |
 (Answer.) A young man attend ing the theatre with a lady friend, or friends, allows his companion or com panions to precede him in passing the ticket-taker's wicket. He then se- cures the requisite number of pro grammes, gives the usher his cou- pons, and again gives the lady or la dies precedence, following them, hat in hand, down the aisle
 A BRIDAL SHOWER-WiH you kindly tell me the proper time to give a shower in honor of girl friend who is to be married in May?
 (Answer.) The idea of a. bridal shower, is of course, to give the brides intimate girl friends an oppor- tunity to help in setting up the new home. Invitations to such are sent out informally. The affair is gener- ally held a week or 10 days before the wedding.
 REPRODUCTIONS introducing a gentleman friend to a lady should I say the 1ady's name first, as Miss meet Mr.?
 (Answer) Tn introducing men to women, the woman's name is al ways spoken first and the gentleman presented to the lady, as Miss Smith, let nc Dracept Mir Edwards ''

FATHER DUFFY
 CONTINUES ADDRESS

Rev. P. Gavan Duffy continued his preaching at the mission in St. Johns Episcopal church last night and gave a very interesting ant instructive talk on Prayer
 "The ascetic temperament has so dominated Christian teaching for so long as to convey the idea that, for the supply of the simplest need we must importune until Heaven is nov ed out of it's course and Gods will is brought down to the level of our ne- cessity, whereas the end of all true prayer is the raising of our will to union with His When this is done, faith is established and the resources of God, Himself. are made available for His children"
 The subject of the instruction to- morrow will be Faith in Action" and the sermon topic will be "A Lost Soul.''

Delicacy Of Lines And
 Color For Spring Gowns

with tuxedo effect. It is often wrap ped around like a scarf.
 This was worn with a smart skirt of black and white baronet satin.
 A sport suit of drefly and white tricolette (alternating panels) and knife pleated, was most striking.
 Suits? Eton jackets, side pIeated skirts, and ela(borte Tbraiding. One, a beauty, was a Lanvin. copy of twill fino. The coat was Eton and the skirt was tunic-style.
 A novelty cross bar effect given by the all over pattern of hand embroid- cry, gave this suit first place in the selected list. The embroidery was a fascinating combination of red, gold and citron. The blouse was of chamois duvetyn embroidered in blue silk Another secret discovered on style is that poiret twill is now 'TwRl also in Eton pattern and was finished with wide sash of trico1ette. Suit was dark blue embroidered in gold. On the afternoon and evening frocks there was lace, lace, lacei Chantiliy. Bohemian and filet. A morning frock of lettuce green crepe de chine was trimmed with black patent leather and the contrast was most fetching. Perhaps one of the prettiest models was the simplest. It was midnight blue taffeta slightly draped. The sleeves were quite short and a tiny bunch of apple trimming was fasten- ed at the edge of the sleeves, and more were on the simple blouse neck 1 Partridge is another spring shade. Il 1 is just a shade or so darker than wood brown, and was shown in a wrap of peachbIoom. Although next

New York, Feb 25.-Modes of the last minute were exhibited by g. New York firm to the Theatre Assembly club members in the grand ball room of the Hotel Astor yesterday.
 Every one was pretty. Just as one decided the evening gown being dlS- played by the model was the most beautiful thing, another model would step into the light, and that costume would be "the -Fost wonderful com bination" So it was through all the show.
 Perhaps by popular vote judged from the 'Mmmm-s'' and fOo-os, sport suits struck the fancy strongest, and twas not to be wondered at, for they were costumes that would fit in any hour from the summer morning con- stitutional to the veranda hop
 One was a ciel blue baronet satin skirt slightly fuHed onto the wide belt, with attached separate pocket flaps. These were embroidered III long and short stitch, and dresoen flowers in silks of the pastel shades
 The embroidery was solid The sweater worn over the pretty hnge1e blouse was a pure silk mapdesnaee. Maple is one of the spring cot0es- IL IS the shade of maple ice-creaIu ra-IheF 4han the sugar or syrup Of that name.

 Another costume was 3apon1ca col ored baronet satin skirt of diamond- pattern weave. A black silk sweater with the tuxedo edge of black brocad- ed satin, the pattern in gilt with a touch of mahogany -re7@ lhls most striking. The sweater gipdle was tip ped with heavy gold frinsed tasssels like grandmother's upholstered furn1- ture and portieres used to have.

MANUFACTURERS
 TOLD TO PLACE
 ORDERS AT MINES

The Manufacturers association of Connecticut has sent out tedegrams to those of it's members who have been encountering fuel difficulties urging them to place orders immediatelywit11 the mines in Pennsylvania.
 The association has received a com mun1cation from the management of the New Haven railroad, according to a statement made by the association today, saying that it cannot be defi- nitely be stated how much fut: the road will need and when commandeer- ing will be unnecessary. The associa- ton argues, however, that the more coal is rushed to 1.ew England through the gateways recently opened the sooner the needs of the road will be met and the better the prospects of the manufacturers will be; this pro- vided, of course, that the coal is not sent faster than it can 1C hand 'I.

The chemise frock has had a great run and for street wear is not en- tirely passe yet, but when it comes to dance frocks the modern maid must have a waist. No longer will filmy masses of tul1e and chiffon entirely swath b CT into a shapeless mass. Now she affects a tight bodice that fits in to her honest-to- goodness waist line
 Here we see dance frock of black satin lavishly trimmed with embroid- cred net and jet. The bodice is not unlike peasant bodice with it's shoulder straps. A fairly tight under skirt is enhanced by the poplum of net which falls from the hips to the bottom of the skirt.

Paris, Feb. 25-The new style of hairdressing launched by Parisian establishments revives the big soft chignon pinned low on the nape of the neck. Parted on the right side of the head, the hair is brushed back in soft waves forming a. beautiful and becoming frame to the temples and brows. It is a. far cry from the short 'fbobbed' locks of the past two sea sons.
