say of blue, black, brown or dark
green, where you would soon become
a firing object to the eye if you ap-
peared throughout single season in
a bright red, or brilliant green
checkered sports suit.
Again, the color considerations of
the women whose income is limited
should concern lightness, as well as
brightness, of shade. It is obvious
that, since light clothing appears
soiled much more quickly than dark
clothing does, too much of 1t in the
wardrobe of the average woman is an
unwarranted expense, as it entails
constant cleaners bills.
Only if you have enough money to
keep light, easily soiled clothes con-
tinually at the cleaners, and to dis
card clothes of which you or your
friends have become tired, you can
disregard the otherwise important re-
lationship between color and your in
come.

Relationship Between
Color and Your Income

When you make your decision upon
what is "your color" observes a writ
er in the Kansas City Star, undoubt-
edly you consider your eyes, your
hair, your skim and perhaps even the
psychological effects the color has on
your moods. But do you consider
your income?
If you do not, not only are you like
1y to have depleted bank balance and
q worried expression, but the very
coIors you choose as yours are like
ly, by some malicious magic, to be-
come both unsuitable and unbecoming.
Suppose, for instance, it is some
bright shade which you have select
ed as pre-eminently suited to your
looks and personality. Now, if your
Income is such that you cannot afford
plenty of other and milder-colored
clothes, to offset the ones of the
favored "loud" color, your friends are
going to tire of that color quickly ::
and the chances are that, after time,
you will even cease to appear attrac-
tive in it-at least to those who see
you wear 1t daily.
Prominent stripes, plaids and checks
come in the same class of conspicuous
clothing as do striking colors. You

stains on white or fast-colored wash
able materials. The stains should be
sprinkIed with borax and soaked in
cold water, then rinsed thoroughly in
boiling water
Stains on delicate fabrics should be
spread on a fiat surface and sponged
with lukewarm water. Beneath the
stain there should be a cloth folded
into several thicknesses, or clean,
white plotting paper, to absorb the
superfiuous liquid. The pad should be
changed for a fresh one as soon as it
becomes soiled. The sponging should
be done with a clean, soft lintless
cloth, preferably of the same material
as that stained, renewed as frequently
as may be necessary. Lay the stained
material with the wrong side up and
apply the water to the back, so that
the foreign substances can be washed
from the fibers onto the pad without
having to pass through the material
Grease solvents such as chloroform,
carbon tetrachlorid, ether, gasoline or
naphtha, and benzol may be needed If
spots of fat remain after sponging.
Most of these are infammable and the
greatest care should be exercised in
using them. The best place is out Of
doors, in the shade.

Waistless Gowns Mode
for Paris This Winter

A sheath gown and smile-that's
what the Parisienne is going to wear
this winter. according to the leaders
of fashion in the Rue lie da Paix.
There won't be any waistline. The
dressmakers have given up as a bad
Job the task Of trying to decide wheth-
er it should be close to the knee or
close to the northern frontier.
But winter is going to be cold.
Therefore, before you can see the
gown, you can admire cloak of vel
vet or silk with furs as accessories,
above and below. Fur coats will be
as popular as ever, Of course, but they
are getting more and more expen-
sive. The best the woman of mod
est means can do is to have fur col
lar, but it must be so high that moth
ing shows but her eyes.
Fur also will be utilized as trim
mings at the bottom of the gown, and
under that one can see "hand sewn
stockings of silk or Isle with lace, sill
yer or gold embroidery.

writer in the New York Herald-Trib-

fuilness is given by group of in

stances. In others the buttons of a

than they would have been last year.
A touch of embroidery or ribbon
cravat is brought through a SLOT in
the dress at higher level than in
the last collection.
The blouses worn with three-piece
suits are as long as the coats and
often quite straight. They are gen
orally of georgette crepe, which may
be plated or embroidered.
Plaid is much used in this collec-
ton and so is fine silk faille called

of sugar, adding the well-beaten yolks
of three eggs, the juice and grated rind
of q lemon, with pinch of cinnamon.
Add the potato with one cupful Of rich
milk, fold in the beaten whites of the
eggs and pour into pie plate lined
with faky crust. Bake in a moderate
oven, taking care that the top does not
become too brown before the filling is
sufficiently cooked.
Brunswick SteW.-In the early days
in Brunswick county hunters prepared
this Virginia dish, using squirrels as
the meat for the stew. When squirrels
are not to be obtained, chicken or lamb
is substituted: Cut the meat into
serving-sized pieces, dip into flour.
Place an iron kettle over the fire and
into it place a layer of coarsely
chopped salt pork; over this add
layer of thinly sliced onion. next
layer of parboiled potatoes, layer of
green corn cut from the cob Canned
corn may be used), and finally layer
of lima beans. Now place the meat IN
the kettle and repeat with another
layer of the pork, onion and other
vegetables, then pour over two quarts
Of boiling water, cover and place the
kettle where it will just simmer for
three or four hours. Now add a quart
of tomatoes cut into pieces, two tea
spoonfuls of sugar, tablespoonful of
salt. pepper to taste, cover and cook
another hour. Thicker the gravy with
flour and butter rubbed to paste,
adding more seasoning if needed; sim
mer until the gravy is cooked and the
stew is ready to serve. This makes a
large kettleful but is good reheated
if the family do not consume it all the
first day.
Roast oysters.-This is a typical
Washington dish. Select large oys-
ters, scrub the shells WELL place in a
dripping pan in a hot oven, or on top
of a coal range. When the shells be-
gin to open, remove to g hot platter
and serve at once with melted butter.
Terrapin.-Plunge the terrapin, shell
and all, into kettle of rapidly boiling
water. Leave until the meat begins to
loosen from the shell, then drain and
cool. Remove the shell and take out
the gall and entrails-all the rest is
edible. Cut the meat into small pieces,
retaining all the juice which thus es-
capes: mix this juice with two or three
tablespoonfuls of butter, half a glass
of currant jelly, tablespoonful of
worcestershire, two tablespoonfuls of
lemon juice, and salt and cayenne to
taste. No pepper with terrapin. Mix
the sauce and add the terrapin meat
and simmer for few minutes; now
add a cupful of thick rich cream and
cook until hot, then serve at once.
