that one could not arrange the fur

Coat of 'Three-Quarter
Length Much in Favor

There is no lack of suits in the
showings of autumn clothes, but one
also notices that everywhere great
stress is laid upon the coat of three
quarter length which supplements the
frock or IS worn as a separate coat.
It is fashion definitely marked for
success, since it possesses the attri-
butes of service as well as chic.
Very splendid in line, these coats re-
semble nothing so much as a Chinese
coat. The resemblance is accumulated
by the disposition of trimming in mar
row Quilting bands Of fur between
which are fine traceries OF embroidery.
No doubt the continued vogue of
these long coats has been brought
about by the desire Of women to wear
silk frocks at all seasons. A dress
made of cloth is a bit too heavy to
wear in. the American house-always
somewhat overheated, according to
foreign tdeas-so the simple slender
frock of satin or crepe continues to be
chosen as the gown one wears under
the coat. If 1t matches in color so
much the better, for then one has the
assurance of being perfectly dressed.
These little frocks have a most APP
pealing look of youth and, whileomany
have the new long sleeves, others are
sleeveless.

BEST CLOTHING DECORATION
Make Selection With Regard to Fit
ness for Garment and Material
on Which Used.

Materials for the decoration Of cloth
ing should be selected with regard to
their fitness for the garment and the
material on which they are to be used.
Cotton dresses of the tailored type,
such as are worn in the house, on the
street, or for business need little
decoration other than machine stitch
ing, buttons, and separate collars and
cuffs of the same material or of or
candle, pique, or light-colored mate
rails. The dresses of sheer materials
for afternoon wear, graduation cere-
monies, and such occasions may be-
very simply finished with cordings,
tiny frills of lace, ribbon girdles, and
fine net collars; a bit of color may be
introduced sometimes merely in a
string Of inexpensive beads. Wool
dresses may be trimmed with buttons,
braid, or wool embroidery. With
these also may be worn separate col
lars and cuffs of crepe georgette,
satin, organdie, net, pique, or linen.
Silk dresses for afternoon wear should
be kept as simple in type as others;
pipings, cordings, embroidery, and net,
organdie, or crepe georgette collars
and cuffs are suitable for decoration
and finish.

Great Variety of
New Fall Models
Dame Fashion Offers Many
Numbers; Any Taste Can
Be Satisfied.

That extremely useful and becoming
little black and white frock' is from
all accounts the most favored Paris
ian creation of the moment, observes
fashion correspondent in the MilWau-
kee Sentinel. It's simplicity and prac-
dcality endear it at once to the woman
Of moderate income and good taste.
Any number of quaint and unusual
little touches are permissible so long
as that simplicity is left intact; for
this is the frock that is as much at
home on the street as in the tea room
Of a particularly smart hotel.
Another frock is of black satin, with
a normal waistline, slightly circular
skirt and long fitted sleeves. It's dis
tinctive touch of white is in the three
frills of plated organdie which adorn
the lower part Of the sleeve. Each
point is a fashion feature in itself.
Another model is of black fiat crepe;
the skirt is made with two uneven
tiers and straight hemline. The
bodice is perfectly straight and belted
low with a narrow belt of self mate
rial, and the smart collar and cuffs are
of white organdie edged with footing
and fastened with small crystal but
tons.
Never were fabrics more beautiful
than those which will be worn this
season. The new weayes have arrived
a forecast of a generous mode that the

Many of the strictly tailored models
are characterized by fine tucking. The
termination Of tucks at point sew
eral inches below the waist gives a
long line effect to the frOck. Most of
the frocks Of this style are made on
perfectly straight lines, with the belt
less mode predominating. One espe-
cially successful dress Of this type has
a high collar, long, tight sleeves and
no trimming except narrow band OF
silk embroidery around the hem of
the skirt, which dips slightly upward
toward the side fastening.
Wide sleeves of black silk lace en-
nance a draped black satin velvet

square neck are features OF other

sports attire, developed in the popular

tan and brown colorings are espe-
cially effective. A great many OF
these are fashioned in the cape coat

Frock of Black Satin
New Season Favorite

Never long absent from fashions
ranks, the frock of black satin has re-
turned. Everywhere one sees it worn
by the smartest women and in shops
a collection of gowns Of varying de-
grees of simplicity or elaborateness,
these qualities, of course, being de-
pendent upon the type of frock and
the occasion for which it is intended.
Those designed for street wear are
amazingly chic, fashioned upon lines
of infinite grace and with their long,
tight sleeves are a refreshing change
from the ubiquitous sleeveless frock.
Far from being old or too somber in
appearance, the black frocks Of the
new season are delightfully."- youthful
with their coquettish frills Of lace at
the sleeves and their collars or tiny
filets and guimpes.

One of the secrets of success in
making doughnuts is to use plain
mixture such as the one given below
A rich dough tends to absorb more fat
in frying than a palmer one. A fairly
firm dough is better than very soft
Dne, although too much flour is unde-
sirable and will result in a doughnut
that is not so light and fluffy as one
would desire. It should be handled
lightly, but rolled smooth, for rough
surface absorbs more fat.
Frying doughnuts in fat that is not
hot enough results in a poor, greasy
product, usually fried too long. Roll
Ing and cutting the dough too thick to
cook through in a short time is a mis-
take. Failure on the part of the cook
to judge when the doughnuts are done,
or any other cause that keeps them in
the fat too long tends to make them
greasy.
Best Frying Temperature.
A frying temperature for the fat of
s65 degrees f. was found by the Unit
I'd States Department of Agriculture

dble, be tested with a thermometer.
Doughnuts rolled about one-fourth
inch thick can usually be fried in
three minutes at this temperature if
they are turned to make them brown
evenly. They may be fried in one and
a half minutes if forced under the sur
face of the fat during the frying by
