Observation to the Rescue.

"I haven't the least idea in the world
how to go about it!' walled the wom-

Of wounds. This being the case, and
the wound in question being quite a
simple one, the woman's husband hav-
ing had the misfortune to cut his
hand rather badly with an ak. it was
not extraordinary that the doctor
should have telephoned the woman
and asked her if she would please
change the dressing on her husband S
arm. The doctor. was called into the
country. He would not return till
late. The wound required fresh
dressing.
Womanlike, she assented eagerly
enough, then realized that she really
did not know what to do frst.
"You always talk as il you know
all about it, said her sister. rather
unkindly. The sister was angular
and a bit unapproachable.

So the sister, who observed keenly
if she did speak but seldom, said
rather stiff1y:

swiftly upstairs for the package she

die, usually shaped with. straight
lines, slightly iaring at the top-a
difficult umbrella to hold and one that
would be as easy to lose as the wrist
strap variety was easy to keep with
you. There are some women, however,
who have learned the comfort Of the
wrist strap who have a silk cord or
ribbon placed just below the handle of
the new type umbrella
Umbrellas not made in this flaring
straight-line type seem many OF them
to have been inspired by recollections
of the menagerie. There are leopards
and snakes and elephants if your
taste in animals inclines to the wild.

birds if you like tanner creatures.

Sometimes these animals are shaped
in wood painted in colors. More to
your taste. perhaps. are those carved
in ivory, Chinese fashion. Some of the

flowers of Chinese carving.

Meringue Almond Rings.

Roll one-half pound Of pun paste
very thin and cut it out with-a bis
cult cutter. From each round cut a
smaller one from the center so that
the ring will be about an inch wide.
Beat the whites of six eggs to a stiff
froth; add one-half pound of pulver-
lied sugar and stir with the dish in
boiling water until the meringue is
thick. Slice one-half pound of blanched
almonds very thin. Stir them into the
meringue, cool, then with silver
knise place this mixture on the rings.
Bake at the temperature proper for
cake. These almond rings will keep
fresh for several weeks.

New Umbrellas.

"effeminate fashion of the French.

leftover cereal, or IL you will cook
enough cereal at time for more
than one serving, part of it can be
used for this dish, as it must be made
with the cereal ready cooked. Pare

from three-fourths Of a cup of sugar
and one quart of water and cook the
apples in this until they are soft,

both sides. Fill the cores OF the

has passed away How is it possible
to measure up to the ideals of modern
