FASHION FADS

evening wear is of brown maline

a dainty design Of sparkling
rhinestones.

In fact. next to black. it seems to
be the favorite shade for the
dress and semi-dress costumes Of
women who dress with dignity

An icy stare cannot look quite

that so closely resemble cakes Of

cut the smarter the necklaces
and earrings fashioned from them.
Frequently these beads, in varying
sizes, are combined with round
crystal or pearl beads. Crystal
bracelets are also very popular at
Southern resorts.
Dyeing for Fashion-The laces
are assuming shades Identical with
the dancing frocks that they trim.
Not only Is this done with chiffon
or silk crepe dresses, but also with
lingerie ones Of sheer batiste or
voile or Of crisp organdie.
Fluctuating waistlines are Dame
Fashions alibi, for upon the wear

smart waistline; and where is the
woman who will tell her real age?
The new hip waistline and the
beltless mode are proper for the
matured woman. whereas slim
young girls affect a normal waist
line. Especially in fluffy maline
dance frocks is the regulation or
slightly high waist very lovely.

The fact that the first English

Italy knew the fork at least six
centuries earlier, for there is

and gold spoon by Princess Anglia
at her marriage with the son OK
the Doge Of Venice in 995. The
fork was then regarded as a nov

by the Venetian nobility, despite
the strong disapproval Of the
church, some priests dencunclng
the new instrument as an insult
to Providence, whcih had pro-

COOKING IN A
CASSEROLE
BY Hannah Wing

XXYHEN the casserole came
" in," adapted from the
w French to the American
manner Of cooking, it seemed as
If at last our cooking processes
were to be both shortened and
improved.
But Americans are slow to
adopt new practices, and, al
though casseroles have been made
in any number of delightful and
durable patterns Of both glass
and crockery to suit every pur-
pose, their usefulness is still held
back because we still go on boil
ing and stewing, losing both food
and flavor and causing ourselves
much unnecessary work.
The casserole is a perfect
method Of cooking, since it is
possible to cook long, slowly and
thoroughly, and so produce per-
1ect blending and flavor.
In the casserole meat and vege-
tables may be cooked together
in their own juices and steam, or
one may be cooked in the stock
Of the other to the mutual bene-
fit Of both. The two-part and
three-part casseroles make it pos
sible to cook Quite different foods
30 that a dessert as well as a
meat and vegetable combination
may cook sweetly, and companion
ably side by side. A casserole
makes possible the use Of left.
overs in attractive, palatable and
appetizing ways and makes the
cooking of the tough cuts Of meat
a tender and pleasing reality.
Any vegetable may be stewed,
steamed, scalloped. creamed or
baked in a casserole. If meats
are delayed the food may still be
kept warm and appetizing. That
foods do not burn in the casserole
is another advantage.
To make certain that none Of
the juices of the food are lost in
the cooking the cover of the cas-
serole should fit tightly. If the
oven is used for baking while
casserole dishes are cooking it
may be well to set the dish in
hot water in order to keep the
temperature from hurrying the
cooking.
A good casserole meal is q sir
loin steak en- casserole with pep
pers, turnip, carrot and potato
balls and a few small onions.
Place the steak in the casserole,
add the vegetables and cover
with a thin sauce made from
brown stock, season, cover the
casserole and cook for two hours.
An apple betty might be cooked
in another part Of the same dish.
This with a succulent salad, rolls
and butter, makes a satisfactory
meal that calls for little washing
Of pots and pans.

imposed upon surgeons for fail
ure to save the eye following the
removal Of cataract.
Refined instruments such an
are now used to remove cata-
racts were unearthed at Pompei
where they were buried under the
lava Of Mount Vesuvius nearly
two thousand years ago.
The operation seems, however,
to have been lost during the Mid
die ages. and was not rediscov-
cred until the end Of the seven
teenth and the beginning Of the
eighteenth century, during
which period many surgeons con-
tributed to its success.
1t is now practiced with almost
uniform success in every modern
hospital in the civilized world.
It is this fact that stands out
as a beacon light Of hope to all
who are so unfortunate as to be
afflicted with cataract.

and keep yourself under observa-
ton until your are through with

<<r HAVE a cataract on my
% eye" ,...
OF course you have
nothing of the sort, by wh1cn
mean that II you have
cataract it is not on your eye
but in your eye.
To understand this you must
remember that on the interior
of your eyeball, right back OF
the little round black opening
that is called the pupil. there
is a circular slightly flattened
BODY that in health is as clear
as crvstal,S so clear indeed that
It is called the crystalline lens
It is by means Of this lense
that the rays Of light that get
into the eye through the pupil
are concentrated on a little
SPOT in the back or bottom OF
the eveball where they form the
image. like the image in cam
era that is telegraphed on to
the brain.
That is the way you see.
You can readily understand
that IL the rays Of light can
not get through this crystalline
lens you cannot see.
Now it 80 happens that in
certain cases this crystalline
lens instead Of remaining clear
as crystal becomes first slightly
milky, then more Opaque, and
finally white like a piece OF
porcelain.
The failure of the crystalline
lens to transmit light is ex-
actly proportional to the degree
of opacity that thus gradually
develops until finally no light
at all is transmitted and the
eye is blind.
AS this opacity develops the
black of the pupil gradually
gives way to gray and finally
to white, which is the character
istic appearance Of an eye with
cataract.
It is not always possible to
detect q cataract in its early
stages and drops or glasses are
often prescribed for the falling
vision which in spite of them goes
on failing until lost.
Sometimes, although rarely.
children are born with a cata-
ract; it is very prone to develop
in old age; it may come after
injury, but most frequently 1T
comes without apparent cause.
1t is very important that it
should be detected as soon as
possible, for in many cases by the
use Of properly adjusted glasses
frequently changed to prevent
eye.strain, and proper attention
to the use Of the eye and to the
general health inicipent cataract
may be arrested or even inn
proved.
In cases in which this cannot
be done and the cataract goes on
to blindness the situation Is far
from hopeless.
Cataracts have been removed
from time immemorial.

of Hamurabi over four thousand
years old, in which a penalty is

THE HOUSE OF FAME

vt is not always those who look long
a ingly upon the House of Fame who
succeed in finding a lodging place be
meath Its glorious turrets and towers.
Only in isolated cases do such peo-
pie gain entrance to the house about
which the poets sing and the ambitious
gable. And often when they arrive
they discover to their dismay that the
happiness they imagined would be
theirs, has taken wing and swiftly
flown away
Old carr and sorrow are faithful at
PENDANTS, and no soul is ever made
happier by their solicitous attentions.
Day and night they insist upon DOW
ing and scraping, driving from the
gilded rooms soft-treading Peace and
the gentle Goddess of Sleep.
From u lowly place of view, the
mountains across the valley are de-
lectable. Their tints of violet, rose
and gold beam beneficently. But when
after hours and perhaps days of hard
climbing we reach the towering peaks,
we find them to be cold, rough and re-
polling.
We have gained the chilly heights
and have lost the warm, inspiring col
Ors. We are at a great altitude, far
above the plain country below us very
