Glass Soup Plates, Clear as Crystal
BY LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER.
EEhkAvD
AAGEklANs

If you do not have pure china or
handsome porcelain service plates let
me tell you of way of getting
charming results without them. Use
white china or semi-porcelain dinner
plates instead of the service plates.
Lay a spray Of fern, a maple leaf
touched with the fire Of Autumn until
1t has exquisite beauty, n flower that
will lie fat (such as a large pansy)
or spray of small blossoms in the
center OF the dinner plate. On this
set the glass soup plate holding the
clearest of clear soups, such as a
chicken bouillon. You can readily
see that the result Will be beautiful.
Do not attempt to use artificial flow
ers. Remember that this use of
genuine leaves and flowers is to simu-
late the beauty of ceramics
For Dinner Only.
The use of the glass soup plates is
at present restricted to dinners. The
plates are not supposed to be used
at luncheons, though no doubt the
style will become more flexible later
on. Just now fashion dictates glass
soup plates for dinners and bouillon
cups for luncheons. 1t is not neces-
sary, therefore, to discard bouillon
cups. They still have their place.
that it will not be long before soup
plates other than glass ones will be-
gin to be used at least for the thick
soups. Of course, there is no reason
why the glass soup plates should not
be used for all kinds Of soups. The
glass is strong, is made to stand in
tense heat, and is dainty, too.
Fascinating Fashion.
The interesting thing, however, is
the revival of the old form of soup
plates in the new guise coupled with
the decorative innovation. The style
is fascinating one. Since flowers,
ferns and leaves may be used as beau
tiful substitutes for painted and fired
ornamentations on service plates,
there is no reason why homemakers
who are of average means should not
keep up with the fashion. Let me
remind you again of the necessity of
using clear soups, for they are a part
of this new vogue.

Foot Treatments.

Troubles having to do with the feet
are numerous-particul in cold
weather, when we usually wear
heavier stockings and shoes than at
other times, and when the hracing air
gives US the desire to get oNt and
walk. In Winter. as in sumIher, q
good chiropodist is almost as essen

Wear low-heel shoes whenever pos
sible. and always wear round toe
shoes with Il straight inner line by
the large toe. Never economiZe on
footgear-pay enough for perfect
comfort.
Always scrub the feet with q brush
when bathing and rub off the callous
skin with Il rough towel or with a
corn file. Clean under the toenails
every few days and remove what
loose skin you can from around the
edges of each nail. If Il real corn de-

whether or not they have the real
thief. 1 do hope those dogs will
find the trail of some other Fox. If
they happen to find Reddy's trail
they will be almost sure to find
where he and Mrs. Reddy are living
over in the Old Pasture, and if they
happen to be caught at home, it will
ho the end of them. / do hope
neither of them stole those chickens"
Farmer Browns Boy had known
for a long time just where that
homo was. He went straight there
now. When he was near there he
Kept a sharp watch for feathers.
Presently back of n big rock he saw
what he was looking for, and what
he didn't want to find. Scattered
about on the grass and in the bushes
were feathers. They were the feath-
ers of hen. They were speckled
feathers.
Farmer Browns Boy stood looking
sadly down at those tell-tale feath-
crs. He knew that the only speckled
hens in all that neighborhood were
the hens of the neighbor who had
borrowed Bowser that morning, and
who had been losing his chickens
for some time. He knew beyond a
doubt that either Reddy or Mrs.
Reddy had stolen those chickens
Those speckled feathers so close to
their home were absolute proof. He
knew that If those hunters should
lind those feathers they would do
their best to kill Reddy and Mrs
Jseddy.
What do you think Farmer
Browns Boy did? He went to work
picking up those feathers. 1t was
quite job, for they were scattered
all about. lie even went way back
80 the house to get a paper bag to
put them in. When he had picked
up the last one ne could find he
sighed with relief.
Now If those hunters come this
way" said he to himself, they won't
find any proof that Reddy or Mrs.

Glass soup plates. clear as crystal
and without ornamental ton, are in
fashion. They mark a distinct change
in the style of serving soups, which
tor many years have been invaria bly,
put in bouillon cups. Today not only
are the soup plates of glass and clear,
but they dictate the sort of soup that
must be served. Clear soup alone
should be put in them.
1t is no mere whim that makes the
clear soup imperative. 1t is to per-
init the exquisite beauty Of the serv-
ing plate beneath the soup plate to
he plainly visible that the soup must
be "A consomme.
The whole point of using glass
soup plates is dependent upon the
decorative serving plate. AS you
know, service plates are not intended
for any other use than that of deco
ration. They are often of great
value, running into three figures
each. Not only is the ware of such
plates of the finest china, but the
decorations are often painted by
artists Of sufficient note to have the
designs signed, either with the paint
Cr'S whole name or his Cor herr ini-
tials. Such plates are gems of ce-
Tdmic art. 1t is a satisfaction to
those who own such plates to have
rather than between courses aQd at
the beginning Of dinners only. The
fine glass soup plates containing clear
soup make this possible.
Even il serving plates are not so
marvellous as the ones just described,
the glass soup plates may be used to
advantage. There are thousands of
other service plates that are hand
some. AS a matter of fact, many
homemakers prefer the less ornate
plates, choosing those that are of
handsome china, but which have geo.
metric decorations, sometimes in dull
gold alone. The tone OF the plates
may be of some rare shade before be-
ing ornamented with the gold or con-
1raSting color, or the cream white or
lure white of the kaolin may be left
untOned. The important matter is
hat there should be some beauty of
color or of design to be seen through
The bottom of the glass soup plate.

You may be inclined to doubt the
obvious origin of this family name.
Don't. 1t Is the right one. No mat
ter how the Beaman's spell their
names now, whether it be Beamen,
Reeman or Beman, the origin is, for
the most part, the same-"bee-man." !"
In other words, the first bearers of
this name were actually bee keepers
or gatherers Of honey. back in the
picturesque England Of the Middl e
Ages. There is record In an old roll
of the year 1883 of a Latinized form OF
the name, Ralph Custosapium"
(keeper of the beehives) Latin was
greatly used at that period for lite
rary purposes, and about everybody
who knew how to write at all knew
Latin.
The fact that so many family names
of the period were actually transla ed
according to their meanings when SO
set down in Latin is good evidence
of the fact that at first they were
merely descriptive surnames, though
later their specific meanings were
forgotten and they became hereditary
family designations.
The "beeman" was an important
person at this period, for honey en-
tered largely into the mixed drinks"
of that age.

Reddy had anything to do with the
stealing of those chickens" Some
how he felt happier as he went over
to the entrance TO Reddy's home and
tried to find out by the footprints
in the sand at the entrance whether
or not any one was at home. He was
so intent on studying those foot
prints that he failed to see a single
little speckled feather caught in the
bushes close to the doorway If he
had seen and picked up that feather

Speckled Feathers.

Yet life Ur death rest on such.


Farmer Browns Boy went down
the Long Lane across the Green
Meadows and UP to the Old Pasture.
Cn his freckled face there was a
worried look. He was worried. He
knew that the neighbor who ha6 lost
many chickens had fully made up his
mind TO get the Fox who had been
stealing those chickens. That very
morning he had come over and bor-
Fowed Bowser the Hound. A party
Of hunters was to start out with
Bowscr and other dogs to try to
run down the thief. The thief might
not be Reddy Fox or Mrs. Reddy,
who lived up in the Old Pasture, but
Farmer Browns Boy was fearful
that 1t might be.
If Reddy Fox should be killed,

MILLING PLANT
Is DESTROYED BY FIRE

The Conejos Cooperative Roller
Mills were practically destroyed by
fire on September T. The mill was
operated by w. C. and ]. X. Me
Gregor and was of 1875 barrels cap
acity. The damage has no, been
estimated but 1t is said the main
unit of the mill was practically de.
stroyed. 1t was insured for $4,000.
The Conejos mill OF which the
present plant is the successor Is said
to be the first flour mill built in
Colorado. 1t was built by Lafayette
Head in 1857 and the flour was
ground through homemade stone
burrs. The mill was reconstructed
and modernized in 1890 and in
1910 was burned. What was left
of the plant was then moved to
