GOOD CORN PUDDING RECIPE
May Be Served With Meat Course and
Can Be Prepared in Many
Different Ways.

A corn pudding which may be served
with the meat course, can be made by
various recipes; it consists Of cooked
corn cut from the cob (fresh or
canned) blended with an approximate
~ equal quantity of custard mixture
without sugar, and baked. If one egg
is used. to a No. 2 can of corn, one
cupful of milk may be used, and one
teaspoonful Of cornstarch or flour, to
give thickening. Cornstarch should
always be blended with a little cold
liquid before being added to hot mix
ture.
To make corn pudding, simmer the
milk with the corn for 10 minutes,
and then add the blended cornstarch,
One-half teaspoonful of salt and lit
tie pepper. Cook for Is minutes in
a double boiler. The beaten egg-yolk
is then stirred in and cooked for a
minute. The stiffly-beaten egg-white
is folded in just before turning the
corn pudding into a creased baking
dish to cook in hot oven for 20 min
utes. AS with other baked custard
mixtures, it is well to set the baking
dish in a pan of water to prevent
curdling at the side of the dish be-
fore the pudding is done at the center,

New Skirt Models
Have Three Tiers
Fashion Is Brought Into
Prominence by Leading
Paris Designer.

Many of the new autumn models
show skirts in three tiers, writes a
Paris fashion correspondent in the
New York Tribune An attractive
number, as used by one prominent
Paris maker, is cloth dress of beige
wool reps trimmed with brown astra-
khan fur. In addition to the three
TERED skirt this frock has another
new feature, a narrow left-side panel,
which buttons the full length of the
skirt and along the underarm seam of
the bodice.
Another new model is a straight
line dress developed in green crepe de
chine. The skirt is cut with circular
side panels set on at the hipline. The
frock is trimmed with bands of red
and green braid and has high astra-
khan collar exactly like that on the
model just described.
Skirts showing circular cut full
ness at the sides appear to be favor
ties with one of the leading designers.
He makes very simple models devoid
Of any new feature except the placing
Of the circular side panels.
Bright-colored braid trimmings also
are featured by this maker He
makes a model in black crepe de chine.
For it he uses long sleeves and circu-
lar side panels. The trimming con-
sists of bands of red and black braid
The dress with short coat of the
same material-the costume common
ly and enormously known as the
three-piece suit-will continue to be
one of the mainstays of the autumn
fashions Skirts Of frocks which go
to make up such costumes usually are
plain while. blouses are plated. The

The rest of dinner or luncheon is
usually easier to plan than the des-
sert. What is generally wanted is
something light and attractive-a sort
of climax to the meal. Sweets in
some form are necessary to we'll
rounded diet Dessert is the logical
time to serve them.
Any dessert must be chosen with
regard to the other dishes Of the same
meal After a heavy course of roast
meat and vegetables, a custard or
other dessert containing milk and eggs
adds unnecessary protein to the meal !;
1t is better to serve fruit, whole or
cut, fresh or canned, or several fruits
cut up together; or if combination is
used at the beginning OF meat meal,
the dessert may be omitted entirely.
Italians rarely have cooked desserts
of any sort. 1t is their custom to COM
plete dinner, which frequently has a
number of courses, with whole fresh
fruit-apples, pears, bananas, oranges,
grapes according to the season or
the market, This is very good prac-
tice which offers an easy dessert for
many days.
Fruit preserve, jelly, fruit butter,
honey or maple syrup is frequent
" liked for dessert with bread and
butter, biscuits, cake or in pastry. To
save work in the middle of the day,
these sweets are more often used at
lunch time than at dinner.
Puddings Too Fat.
A steamed or baked pudding, such
as suet or plum pudding, with hard
sauce or a sauce made with egg, is
often too rich in starch, protein and
fat to be suitable after these foods
have been previously served at the
same meal in the form of potatoes,
gravy, meat, meat fat or salad dress
ing. Rich hot desserts help to FILL
up in cold weather after a less hearty
meal or very light lunch. In the
summer time they are not, as a rule,
relished.
Z .Well-made pastry, particularly fruit
pie, has its place as dessert, but not
at the end Of very hearty raeal.
Salad, bread and butter, and a piece
of pie very often constitute a salts
factory and filing lunch Biscuit
topped fruit pies, served hot, which
are sometimes called ''cobblers," are
considered more wholesome than rich
pastry and can be served for change
at any time a hot dessert is accept
able. They furnish good vehicle for
the various dried fruits in winter, such
as peaches, apricots, apples, prunes or
pears, and they are also good when

Sleeves and Necks and
Effect of Cooler Days

Only a hint of cold weather was
needed to send arms under cover so
far as women are concerned. Sleeves
have appeared as If by magic, and
even when short sleeves or sleeveless
frocks were worn, arms that have
been bare all summer are covered by
gloves. Some compromised by the
addition of little double puffs, two
puffs to each arm, attached at the
shoulders These are of plated geor-
gette and come midway to the elbow.
Sleeves on afternoon costumes in most
instances are long and tight, coming
we'll over the band, as the Paris mode
prescribes. Neck lines however, con-
tinue to follow the canoe type with
open gunwales- that is, the hem stands
well away from the neck and Shout
ders. Sometimes standing collar is
feature.

How to Make Mirrors
Create CheerfuIness

Adroit mirror usage in the small,
rather Swallowed hall creates an atmos-
phere of cheerfulness. Place within
it's range bowl Of pretty flowers,
roses, or simple garden blooms and
note the frightening effect that the
reflection of their colors creates.
From another angle the gay chintz
hangings at one of the living room
windows, glimpsed through the open
door, are repeated in the mirror sur
face, supplying a vivid touch to the
somber wall on which the mirror
hangs. The value of a mirror in such
a spot cannot be overestimated, so If
your hall is a bit shadOwy, by all
means employ mirror to give the
needed Frightening touch.
In rooms facing the north, in which
the sun refuses to shine during the
long winter months, use mirror in
conjunction with touches Of orange or
red. mo colors bring such warmth
of tone as orange or red, yet they are
1nfreQuently employed, because they
are SO little understood. Let US sap
our bedroom and our. wall covering
putty tones. Hang the mirror above
the black chest Of drawers which
shows as decoration narrow bands of
orange. Choose an orange runner for
the bureau top, softened at the end
with blendings of old blue. Repeat
these tints in the curtain hangings,
and on the floor lay two-tone blue
rug. Introduce predominance of
orange in the chair cushions, and hang
within range of the mirror wall
pocket of blue luster filled with a
tangIe of orange bitter-sweet vine.
Border the blue bedspreads in orange,
and then behold the result The
vivid orange will be repeated from ev-
cry angle in the mirrors rejecting
surface, bringing the CLINT of sunlight
to add a welcome touch, but its vivid
ness will not be overemphasized,
thanks to the toning influence of the
ebony and the softening shadows Of
blue.-Arts and Decoration.

made with canned cherries, raspber-
ries or blackberries. On the cooler
midsummer days when fresh berries
are in season, cobblers can be served.
Desserts made with milk are high in
food value. Cornstarch or Irish moss,
blancmange. custard, junket and milk
gelatins. tapioca and rice pudding are
good desserts to have after made
over dishes like haShes, stews or Gro
quettes in which the quantity of meat,
actually eaten per person is sometimes
less than when chops, steaks or roastS
have been provided
GELATIN Desserts Easy.
Gelatin desserts with fruit flavors
are quick and easy to make, even with
out the commercially favored prepa-
rations. AS they must stand several
hours in cold place to harden, they
can be made early in the day and thus
eliminate the last-minute cooking that
so often makes dinner a trying meal
to prepare.
Ices and sherbets made of fruit
juices without milk cost less than ice
cream and are suitable after a rich
meal. Ice cream supplies fat when
made with part or all cream Ice
cream containing eggs and frozen
custards occupy a similar place to
custards in the menu-that is, they
are suitable when light courses pre-
cede them.
Many people enjoy a piece of cake
for dessert. In addition to the differ
ent favors and varieties possible in
frosted and unfrosted cakes, loaf, lay
er and cup cakes, there are numerous
special cakelike desserts, such as
Washington pie, charlotte russo pine
apple charlotte, English ''triae," zwei-
bach, nut cake cream puffs, eclairs and
cakes made of yeast-raised dough such
as baba cakes and coffee rings.

Hang garments in cedarized bags

They are made by slicing onions
