Among the whims of the mode ap-

expected the bertha to reappear along

sensible choice for the girl who Is not
indulged in number of such dresses
since she will not grow tired of lace
and its style Is appealing. Besides
lace is more easily freshened than
other materials.

GOOD PORK SAUSAGE RECIPE
by Many People Than Any That
Is on the Market.

Many people like homemade sau-
sage cakes better than any other on
the market. An excellent pork sau.
sage may be made by using three
parts Of fresh lean pork to one Of
fat pork. the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture says. Cut Into
small pieces and pass through meat
grinder, using rather coarse plate.
Weigh the meat, and for each pound
add two teaspoonfuls salt, pinch Of
sage. few grains of ground nutmeg,
and a saltspoonful OF black pepper.
Mix thoroughly and pass again through
meat grinder, using small plate. Form
into little round or fattened cakes
and fry in deep fat until nicely

wich is being filed, and the filling may
be sliced through with sharp knife.
In addition to the cottage cheese
these club sandwiches may contain
mayonnaise dressing. lettuce, and to-
mato; or thin-sliced cold ham spread
with mustard; or sliced tart apple,
nuts; or sliced orange. watercress; or
sliced Spanish onion, pimento; or two
tiny strips of bacon; or cucumber and
green pepper, pimento. Lettuce and
salad dressing are usually used in all
these combinations.
Sweet sandwiches may be made
with layers of cottage cheese and
marmalade, or paste made Of dried
fruits. For these the bread need not
be toasted and the lettuce and mayon-
naise should not be used.
