But it's a new trick to associate them
with the name of Gavarni. At the
Gavarni ball at the Paris opera a few
weeks ago, when guests were asked
to come in costumes based on the
drawings OF the famous caricaturist
and maker of fashion plate drawings.
who called himself Gavarni, many of
| those who assembled simply adopted
the second empire mode. But
Gavarni did much of his most inter-
esting work before the reign of Louis
Napoleon in France-he is more prop
erly identified with the modes and
manners of Louis Philippe. and the
fashion in women's clothes that more
properly bears his name is that which
prevailed between 1880 and 1850.
Take the trouble to look over any
of the old Gavarni Autographs and
see how many details there are that
might be adopted in the mode of
today-more, in fact. than you would
find in the fashion that is associated d
more with Empress Eugene.
The full skirt of Gavarni was
shorter than that of the later period,
and dressmakers and designers have
learned that of the presented day bout
FAINT skirt women will have none save
when it is made fairly short. With
the second empire mode came the
skirt that was both outrageously full
and outrageously long. But during
the reign of Louis Philippe women
had to have their skirts short enough
! to show their strapped slippers
| against their light-toned stockings,
and so do the girls of today 1t was
! the short. full skirt that Gavarni
| knew and drew. Then there were
the poke bonnets-and we have poke
bonnets. though not so much like a
| coal scuttle, today. By a coincidence
that is really interesting you will also
find the scarf worn taut around the
neck and knotted in front in the
Autographs of Gavarni, though 1t
cannot be. can it, that we who wear
1t in the same fashion now borrowed
the idea from the mode Of the 1890
1S40 period?
There is another interesting dis
tinction. Gavarni's women still wore
the side curls and the chignon placed
fairly high at the back of the head.
They had not yet learned to roll their
hair demurely over their ears and

Picked Vegetables

You can pickle many vegetables. If
you have a family with a taste for
them. And the comforting thing is
that you need not wait until late au-
tumn, as is necessary in making so
many pickles, to do 1t. Onions and
caulifower. for instance, you can
pickle whenever these vegetables are
plentiful. And by doing them early
you tighten your picking burden of
the late autumn
To Pickle Tomatoes.-Take the round,
smooth green tomatoes, put them in
salt and water. cover the vessel and
put them over the fire to scald; that
is, to let the water become boiling
hot; then set the kettle off; take them
from the pot into a basin of cold
water; to enough cold vinegar to
cover them put whole pepper and
mustard seed; when the tomatoes are
cold take them from the water, cut
each in two across, shake out the
seeds and wipe the inside dry with a
cloth, then put them into glass Jars
and cover with the vinegar; cover
with a close-fitting tin cover.
600 small cucumbers and two quarts
OF peppers. Put them in a. tub with
one and half cups of salt and a
piece of alum as large as an egg.
Heat to the boiling point three gall
Ions Of cider vinegar and three pints
of water. Add a quarter of q pound
each of whole cloves, whole a1Ispice
and stick cinnamon, and two ounces
of white mustard seed, and pour over
the pickles.
To Pickle Onions-Peel the onions
until they are white, scald them in
strong salt and water, then take
them up with a skinner; make
vinegar enough to cover them boil
ing hot; strew over the onions whole
pepper and white mustard seed, pour
the vinegar over to cover them; when
cold, put them in wide-mouthed bot
ties, and cork them close. A table
spoon of sweet oil may be put in the
bottles before the cork. The best sort
Of onions for picking are the small
white buttons.
Picked Caulifower. Two cauli-
flowers, cut up; one pint of small
onions, three medium-sized red pep
pers. Dissolve half a pint of salt in
water enough to cover the vegetables,
and let these stand over night In
the morning drain them. Heat two
quarts of vinegar with four table
spoons of mustard, until it boils. Add
| the vegetables, and boil for about
fifteen minutes, or until a fork can
be thrust through the caulifiower.

where French fashions are favored
0EASHION absolutely reveled In
i ribbons" says the student of
the costume of the Gavarni period
Low necks were worn outdoors as
well as indoors - The hair was combed
up high at the back and gathered into
punches of curls on either side OF

there were leg-o'-mutton sleeves
elephant sleeves and slit
sleeves borrowed from the fashion
of the middle ages" "They wore the
long, narrow scarf of silk or lace,
known as the Bayadere" They re-
veled in organdies and other sheer
fabrics"
IneS6 comments might De applied
to at least one phase of the present
mode, and it is a phase that proves
especially becoming to the girl of six
teen.
This Gavarni mode is eminently
suitable for dance frocks One
charming frock of the sort Is OF
white organdie trimmed with plated
ruffies, while another is of pink taf-
feta with white organdie sash tied at
the left hip. There are designs ap-
pliqued in organdie on the fiounces
Of the skirt.
But you may not succeed in get
ting your sixteen-year-o to sub
NIT to the occurrences and affected
grace of the Gavarni mode. She may
prefer to be straight and narrow.
There will still be charming dance
frocks for her choosing. One has
sometimes to look twice to tell an
evening fock from an afternoon frock
since we often wear no sleeves by
day and so often wear fairly high
decolletage by night. There was per-
haps never time-at least within
the last century-when day frocks
and evening frocks have been, at
times, SO difficult to distinguish.

below us one of the fine city views
of the world. 1 have looked down on
| the capitals of all the great nations.
1 recently stood on the Eiffel Tower
and photographed Paris after the
war. 1 have described Rio de Janeiro
and it's wonderful harbor from the
Sugar-Loaf, a mighty rock that rises
out of the sea facing the city, and
have taken snap shots of Santiago de
Chile from Santa Lucia, the high
bluff crowned with gardens and trees
that rises almost straight up in the
midst of magnificent buildings en-
circled by the silver-topped Andes.
have looked down on Constantinople
from the hills above Pera, upon Cairo
with it's wilderness of mosques and
other domed buildings from the cita-
del, and last, but not least, upon our
own National Capital from the Wash
ington Monument Each of these
cities has its own beauty, but Chris
tiania compares favorably with all.
1t is at the end of a mighty ford.
which here is studded with green
islands, and has many bays backed by
forest-clad hills. The houses begin
near the water. They rise out of the
green, their white walls and roofs Of
red tile forming a wonderful picture.
We are so high we cannot hear a
sound and the whole seems an en-
blem of peace in this noisy war
weeping continent.
Such Is the view from Holmenkollen
in summer. The view in the winter,
when everything is covered with
snow, is far finer and the surround
ings are then the gayest of all the
homes Of Jack Frost. Holmenkollen
is where the skiing derby is held.
This is a great olympic meet Of snow
shoers and skiers to which sports
men come not only from Norway but
all other parts of north Europe. The
Holmenkollen leap is made from a
ledge not far from the site Of the
view have described. The man on
his skis jumps from this ledge, high
over the heads of the spectators who
are gathered on the frozen lake and
on the hillsides below, and then glides
down the slope. The jump is one Of
something like a hundred feet, and is
watched by about 10000 spectators,
who have seats in the grandstand
put UP on each side of the course, or
stand in the bleachers, which the
space under the ledge may be called
The leap is always attended by the
royal family, by the chief members
Of congress and the high society of
Norway.

and he and the crown prince fire.
quently engage in the sport during
the winter. In this they are like
some of the monarchs Of the Norwe-
gian past, who, even before the dis
covery Of America, were noted for
their contests in jumping and gliding
on these long wooden shoes over the
snow.

CKIING might be called the national
~ sport Of the Norwegians. BY

but 500 years before Christ these peo-

consin. The farmhouses are not col
lected into villages as they are in
France, Belgium and Germany. They
stand out alone in the fields, and most
of the buildings are of wood, just as
with us. The houses of the towns and
cities are largely frame and the villas
about Kristiania have their counter
parts in st. Paul and Minneapolis
Indeed. the best residence section
here is not at all unlike the best
streets of ST. Paul. There are many
houses with gardens about them, and
the frame cottage, with a multiplicity
of gables, such as is common all over
America, is everywhere in evidence.
The chief difference is in the roofs
Most of them are of shining tiles,
usually red, but often black or yellow.
The store buildings in Kristiania
are similar to ours as sthey were be-
fore we began to erect the skyscraper
They are Of four, FIVE or six stories
and are built in much the same way.
The stores look the same, except that
they are smaller than in cities of the
same size in the United States, but
their windows are well arranged and
the merchants are businesslike.
Indeed, If you could take an air.
plane and drop down into Kristiania
out OF the darkness, you might sup
pose yourself in an American city.
The faces on the street would be just
about the same and you would not
travel through wilderness of
whiskers and mustaches in mingling
with crowd of these men. You
would find the people big-boned and
husky, and the women tall and mostly
blue eyed, fair haired and, may say.
attractive. You would find American
goods in stores, American tools on
the farms, and see that nearly all Of
the motor cars and motor cycles are
Of American make. Moreover. you
would meet more motor trucks out in
the country than in almost any other
land Of western Europe.
DUT come with me to Holmenkollen
ID and see with your own eyes the
capital of Norway. We can go there
on an electric trolley, with q reel on
the roof as big as a -four barrel. It
will lift US into the air higher above
Christiania than the top Of the Eiffel
Tower is above Paris and we shall
have the city and harbor spread out
before us. Our way up is past villas
and patches of woods. and we land in
one of the chief pleasure resorts Of
the Scandinavians. It 10 evening.

country, and it is said that the snow
is often so deep that skiing OF that
nature starts in November and lasts
until March.
am told that the children are
taught to ski very young. They prac-
tice jumping over small things at
first, increasing the extent of their
leaps and slides as they grow up.
Many Of the villages have their ski
clubs and every little town has
tourist hut on the hills nearby where
the skiers take shelter. There are
skiing parties during the winter and
young men and women so off to-
gether on long ski excursions.
have asked some questions as to
just how skis are made. They are
not like the snowshoe, which might
be called a framework of strings fas-
tened together somewhat like a ten
mis- racket, but are really strips of
board about as wide as the palm of
a good-sized man and a foot longer
than he Is tall. In other words, they
are above five inches wide and about
seven feet in length. The best wood
is the ash, which can be easily bent
so that 1t turns up a bit at the toe.
The ski varies in thickness through
out its length. In the middle, where
the foot rests, it is an inch thick. but
1t grows thinner toward the front,
curving up at the tip. 1t is fastened
to the foot by straps and it should be
well buckled on.
On the down grade the skis are
held parallel. The feet must be kept
close together and the body we'll bal
anced. Sliding down hill the speed
may be that of an express train, and
there are marathon races in which
one man has made the record OF 13S
miles in little over twenty-one
hours. This man was Lapp.
Skiing forms q part of the training
Of the Norwegian army. The soldiers
are required to be able to run upon
skis and they practice being drawn
on their skis behind fast horse.
Sometime one man may ride the
horse and have behind him several
soldiers on skis, each of whom is
drawn along by strap tied to the
saddle. The soldiers make charges
on skis. They run and jump and
slide in formation over the SHOWS.
and when one remembers the winter
he can see how, in a mountainous
country like Norway, such training
might be almost invaluable.
