Have You Jar of Goldfish? You Haven't? Why Not
They Are Pretty Pet to Have and Add a
Decorative Note to Your Rooms
YAvE you jar Of gold fsh7
II They are tremendously in


I' They are tremendously IN
the vogue Just now. And the
reason why isn't that the goldfish
are any different from goldfish Of
a few years ago, but that the glass
jars for holding them are differ
ent. They are more attractive
than they ever were before.
Therefore everybody wishes 20
have goldfish.
There was a time when all pet
goidfish-they are never pet gold
FISH In one way, but all tame gold
fsh--lived In globes-Just big or
little or medium sized globes OF
glass.
But that was a long time ago
and the ethics of keeping goldfish
have developed largely since then.
For now one has a truly lovely
thing wherein TO keep ones gold
/ fish. II may be any shape one
desires, and one chooses the shape
to suit ones taste and ones rooms.
One of the prettiest Of the new
holders for fishes Is a bowl that
swings from the ceiling or from a
bracket high up on the wall. This
globe looks like a big japanese
1 lantern, with a lacquered base Of
red or green or black. and a color
full tassel hanging from It, and
cords at the top swinging II from
Its hook or bracket. This is a
particularly decorative bit Of fur
nishing.
There are also all the charming
/ fish bowls or holders that stand on
supports OF metal. These are
sometimes Just little frameworks
that are placed on the table
Sometimes they are high ones
standing on the floor. The metal
is finished usually in an antique
bronze finish.
Sometimes the fish bowl is iri-
ticularIy attractive. For IL sug-
gests all the briiliancy Of a
soap bubble captured and made
tangible.
I You know, don't you. that there
are supposedly harmless liquids
which you may dissolve in tho
water in a fish globe to tint the
water? There are, so that you
may have blue or green, red or
I yellow tinted water.
A few years ago a French
actress established the custom Of
casting her most priced bracelets

der water. Since then there has
come about a fad for buying
bracelets OF gay colored stone Just
( for the purpose OF putting them in
/ fish globes. They come In red and
green, blue and yellow. You can
buy them for fifty cents apiece.
And then there are colored
marbles sold especially TO pile in
your fish globe. These, too, are a
pretty trick as they make the fish
/ globe more interesting in color.

MINT JELLY.

Many persons make mint jelly
by means Of gelatine, but IL you
wish a jelly that will keep well II
is better to use an apple or crab
apple foundation. You may use
either fresh apples and make the
Jelly for the occasion or else apply
Jelly that you have on hand.
To make it in this way gather
a good sized bunch of mint stalks.

the stalks and leaves in the hands
and steep in a pint of boiling
water. allowing the mint leaves

Allow this to boil to a thick syrup.

melted and put up as usual in Jelly
Jars.

Knitting the New Sweater

w YHATEvER you do about a
" new sweater, don't decide
on one without thinking
about ii sufficiently to get one that
is worth while. For really there
is nothing more unsatisfactory
than a poorly made and poorly
chosen sweater.
IT is an easy matter to get books
of sweater designs and il is
further an easy matter TO get
cards Of samples of yarns of
various sorts. With those two
sorts of samples. you need make
no quick choice.
To begin with. consider well
your clothes color scheme when
you are choosing a new sweater.
You don't want a bright green
sweater if you must wear it with
pink and lavendar frocks. You
don't want an old-blue sweater If
the hat you must wear with 1t is
OF bright yellow.
Be Sure of the Color.
And then remember this-it is
something that many persons for
get: a fiame-colored wool sweater
will not be becoming to you IL a
fiame-colored silk frock is unbe-
coming. There are good many
persons who apparently think that
any color in a sweater is a pos
sible color, who would balk at half
the colors in the rainbow for
their frocks and hats and suits.
Their reasoning is obviously false.
What is unseemly is unbecoming
To be sure, we may safely wear
more vivid colors in sweaters than
we customarily wear in frocks.
But the unbecoming color should
be taboo always, whatever the
medium in which we expect TO
wear il.
The new weaves of woods are
so lovely that they in themselves
are a temptation, and so are all
the new colors-or new manifes-
tations Of the old colors. Tanger-
inc, of course-one of the new
shades--is really a color that
would once have been called
orange. But as tangerine ii is
lovely color in the soft wool or
silk and wool that is used for our
sweaters.
The silk and wool mixtures, per-
haps, are especially tempting, for
they are SO soft and silky, COM
bination of the best in both silk

IL were a garden spade or a
screwdriyer.
On the other hand avoid the
manner of the overdainty folk who
hold the fork gingerly between the
finger and thumb with the other
fingers curled in midair. Strike a
happy medium between these two
methods.
The tendency nowadays is to eat
everything that one can with the
fork, and the suggestion has been
made that the ultra fastidious will
soon attempt TO use a fork for hot
chocolate. Ice cream is preferably
eaten with a fork and for this
reason it should be served in as
solid a form as possible.
In eating salad only the fork
should be used-never the knife
1t is permissible to cut the leaves
of the lettuce or other green with
the side OF the fork if they are
served whole.
When you have finished with a
course the knife and fork with
prongs pointed up should be laid
across the right side of the plate.
This should also be the position
of the knife and fork when pass
ing the plate for a second helping
of meat at a family dinner.
The fork should never be used
to mash or mix food together. To
mash potatoes or other vegetables
in this way so that they will bet-
ter mix with the meat gravy is IN
extremely bad form as Is also the
habit of using the knife as an as
sistance in loading food on the
fork.
Peas should be eaten with a
fork. not with a spoon, and they
should be pierced with the tunes
of the fork, not scooped up.
In certain strict boarding
schools where table manners are
part of the curriculum the pupils
are taught never to use the fork
in the right hand, but to reserve
that hand solely for the use of the
knife or spoon. However, this is
difficult for most persons, and in
this country many well-bred per-
sons do use the fork in the right
hand. This is perfectly permits
sible so long as they do not yield
to the temptation of using that
implement as a shovel.

and wool for sweaters. They are
Infinitely less hard in appearance
than all silk. OF course, infinitely
less expensive. as far as that goes.
One very beautiful silk and wool
sweater is made of pure white,
with border and tuxedo collar
of the same color, knitted in big
checks The only touch of differ
ence is a narrow black patent
leather belt, with a black covered
buckle.
With a Line of Black.
Another very attractive sweater
is short length slip-on of
gray shetland made with elbow
sleeves and a u-shaped neck. The
neck. sleeves and lower edges are
bordered with tiny line of black
angora. 1t is crocheted on, as
such q narrow edge must often be.
There is a sweater knitted of
nayy-blue three-fold saxony, tux
edo style. with the long turn back
collar done in checks, and with a
border along the edge of the col
lar of henna- colored wool. This
border was knitted separately and
ewed in place after il was finished.
Then there is tan sweater.
with a stripe at the bottom of
black and orange-around the
cuffs and the lower edge. With
1t is worn wide scarf with the
ends of tan for twelve inches, then
with a band of orange five or six
inches wide, and then with the
center portion of black. This is
really a most unusually and strik-
ing sweater, and the same idea
could be worked out with gray or
soft blue instead of the tan.
Another sweater is made with
long waist which is sewed into
a girdle about four inches wide
The girdle goes twice around the
hips and ties on the side.
There are the cross-oyer or
surplice sweaters of shetland or
iceland wool that end in sash ends
that tie or loop at the back. These
are lovely in the deep flame or
orange shades worn with white
skirts.
And there are collarless sweat
ers of shetland and iceland wool
that are made to wear with scarfs
that go around the neck and come
down to the waist, the fringed
ends held under leather belt OF
black or brown or white.

may assure the girl he asks TO go
walking or motoring with him that
he would rather go alone with
her, his estimation OF her will rise
when she suggests that some older
they get another young couple to
share their outing.
Among certain very conTen-
tional and formal persons the
idea seems TO be that any married
woman may act as a chaperone for
any occasion and that any unmar-
ried woman-unless she be posi-
lively tottering with age-needs
such protector. Persons who
mingle with their etiquette a
leavening of good sense do not
insist that the chaperone be mar
ried. A sensible young woman of
thirty may act as chaperone for
young girls better than silly
married woman Of twenty.
When It's Absurd.
The sight of an unmarried
woman of mature years insisting
on a chaperone Is sometimes
pathetic. / suppose some of these
prudent maids blush to think that
Joan of Arc rode triumphantly to
Orleans without duenna and
blame the unmarried Charlotte
Corday more because she went
from Normandy to Paris without
a ehaperone than because she rem
dered her service to the cause of
liberty by sticking a knife in the
undefended Marat's back.
But there is happy medium in
the matter of ehaperones as in all
other social institutions. In diff
ferent localities and among diff
ferent classes of persons the rule
regarding chaperones differs so
that it is hard to lay down any
hard and fast rules on the subject.
This much is a good suggestion:
Find out what is the rule OF the
set in which you move regarding
ehaperons and then err rather BY
being too severe than too lax.

PLUM PIE.

To make delicious plum pie,

whole plums. from which the pits
have been removed. Lay them
closely together. Sprinkle them
with sugar and bake until the fruit
is tender. Make a little syrup
with equal parts of sugar and
water in which three or four ripe
plums are boiled rapidly. Strain
this syrup over the pie just before
serving il.

How About a Chaperone?

now though it might seem, it
acted as a restraining influence on
young women who without II
might often be led beyond their

all of us hate the village gossip;

fully drawn lace curtains to feast
her eyes upon any intimatfons of
unconyentionality on the part Of
her neighbors. But Mrs. Grundy,
standing there with those narrow.
suspicious eyes of hers, serves a
purpose in the social order. for
there is not young girl or young
girls mother. or young man or
young mans mother in the street,

pretty girl, when asked by a good
looking newcomer to take a stroll

A young girl always has infinite

But because other people might
not feel about it as she does. she
avails herself of the services of a

Sixty-six owners of Overland cars
