Salmon Mayonnaise.

There are two ways of preparing
this dish. The first way consists in
taking a piece Of salmon, cook ed
whole in seasoned water. When drain
ed and cold, remove the skin and coat
the surface with a stiff mayonnaise
sauce, to which a little aspic has
been added. When dished up, deco
rate the fish tastefully with slices
Of cucumber and lobster coral. For
thu other way of preparing, take
tho remains of cold salmon and re-
move the skin and bones. Break the
salmon in fakes and season to taste.
Wash. trim and drain two small heads
OF lettuce and divide the leaves into
short pieces, Put little mayonnaise
sauce on a dish, upon this put a layer
Of lettuce, spread over a tablespoon
full Of mayonnaise, and arrange a layer
OF salmon on top. Continue thus until
the fish and lettuce are used up, then
give 1t a ome-shaped appearance.
Cover the whole with mayonnaise
sauce and garnish with hard cook ed
eggs, beets and strips OF anchovy
fillets, capers or gherkins. Keep the
dish on ice until ready TO serve.

and still worse troubles are bound
to follow.
The way to make the hands look
smaller when gloved is to buy gloves
a quarter size too large, rather than a
quarter size too small. That sounds
odd. but try it and you'll see it's true.
For one thing, the shape of the glove
shows; and there is obviously plenty
of room within it for the hand, which
by itself would make the hand seem
smaller. If the glove is tight strange
bulges Of flesh protrude, pulling the
leather out of shape, giving the i'm
preston that the hand is so large II

hands can wear 1t. Buy thick, loose

daytime, and thick white washable

as heavy quality white kid for long

big.
And remember that this season
heavy leather gloves are smarter than

Fuchsia and Rose With Pink Pearls
By MARY MARSHALL.

''Geranium pink may change a
girls career" observes Margaret
Story. "And pink" she says, rep
resents youth and daintiness. 1t is
the true color Of love. The touch of
red gives spirit and Vitality, and its
Thiteness gives innocence and
youth" Says she of red: 1T may re-
create an enjoyment of life in the
crestfallen."
If this be the case it seems as If
no girl ought quite to despair of
finding the JOY of life until she had
worn a red gown.
Further Mrs. Story says: Purple.
when blue predominates, is i'm
perious; it will say, Co. If there
is more red, then there will be
warmth, generosity and responsive
ness, which indicate cordiality."
Fuchsia, the shade that is now
frequently chosen by fashionable
women when they want to wear a
frock of the reddish order, might be
described a purple with red pre-
dominating, or IA red with a purplish
cast. To many persons it is not
especially becoming, but always 1t
is stimulating, arresting color to
behold. Interestingly enough, colors
that bear the cachet of real smart
ness in this generation very seldom
are very becoming. Mustard color
that ruled fashion some years ago
was really becoming to about one
woman in a thousand; jade green is
seldom so becoming as sage or a
deep leaf green; periwinkle or
pervenche blue is less becoming than
sky blue or madonna blue. Yet
mustard, jade and periwinkle have
been smart"
Fuchsia appears to best advantage
when, somehow or other, 1t is
worked into what Margaret Story
would call self harmony" AS
example of this, she gives us red,
light red and dark red. Thus a
fuchsia velvet gown is worn with a
rose on the shoulder shading from
deep fuchsia to pink, and the neck
lace worn with the gown consists of
n string of pink pearls. The writer
just quoted bids US remember that in
such schemes the color of the wearer
is considered as one OF the colors of
the scheme"
Such being the case, the woman
who wants to wear fuchsia and pink
as part of such a degrade" scheme
for the French word degrade
seems to signify no more nor less
than a -harmony''-should take
care that her cheeks and lips pre-
sent the color of the same range.
TO use the orange-red lipstick con-
sidered smart by some. women few
seasons ago would be a mistake. To
keep the harmony perfect there
should be little or no suggestion OF
yellow in the cheeks or lips-and the
desh-colored stockings should be OF
clear, not salmon, pink.

With a terrible clanking of chains
and amidst awful groans the ghost
of Jacob Marley came through the
door. Scrooge was shaking like a
leaf, but he said, You are a hum
bug" The ghost shrieked and took
the bandage from its head. Its jaw
dropped down on its chest.
"Ebeneezer Scrooge," the ghost
said, II am here to try TO save you
L lived a wicked life and see what
must do. Travel with these chains
in agony, through eternity. You will
be doing the same unless"
How can you help me. Jacob7'
cried Scrooge piteously.
"You will be visited by three spirits
-" the ghost said.
'Ts there no other way?'' asked
Scrooge.
What" cried the ghost, ''you would
give up this chance?' Again he
shrieked and ratified his chains and
slowly backed toward the window.
Scrooge could see through him, and
finally saw him disappear into nothing.
AS the ghost disappeared, Scrooge went

Cure Of Hemorrhoids.

From a consideration of the causes
81 piles (hemorrhoids) It should be
clear that one subject to the condl-
ton must sedulously avoid the use
o. the common physics which almost
invariably contain aloes or aloin and
similar vegetable" or herb ca
thartics. which tend to induce and ag-
gravate hemorrhoids The individual
subject to hemorrhoids ought to de-
pend on natural means-proper diet,
habit and general eXercise-to "regu-
late" the bowel. OF course, the con-
dition itself sometimes causes
state of constipation which can be
relieved only through the cure of the
piles. Although the enema or inJec-
lion habit is generally far worse
$han the physic habit or constipation
atself In some cases OF hemorrhoids,
& IS advisable to inject about an
ounce of tepid water or liquid petro-
Satum to assist when there is in
Aammation and much pain.
Now and then spontaneous cure of
piles occurs in the manner l have
described in a previous article. The
dilated (varicose) vein becomes in
fected and infiamed (Which means
phlebitis) and the blood within the
in7amed vein clots and after days OF
Intense suffering the clot is expelled
follows, with scar formation, of
course, which obliterates the affected
portion OF vein. That constitutes a
natural cure. 1t is fortunate that
The physician can shorten the period
of suffering in such a case by lancing
the vein and SO aiding the expulsion
of the clot Sometimes the infiamma-
lion of the pile goes on to suppura-
tion, and that means abscess.
This natural cure of piles is so
rare that few know it ever happens
at all. OF course, there are usually
several hemorrhoids present, and a
natural cure of one would not pre-
vent subsequent attacks" involving
The others.
1t Is sometimes asserted by those
who profit by keeping pile sufferers
suffering indefinitely that piles re
turn" even after an operation for
cure. To this extent that is true
namely, that an individual who has
lad piles destroyed surgically is just
as likely as anybody else to develop
niles if he commits the sins L have
Indicated as leading to piles.
When not too numerous hemor-
lauids may be surgically obliterated
under local anesthesia by any good
surgeon. No specialist is needed.

BY EDNA M. CoLMAN.

Whom Mrs. John Mock, better known
in England as Mrs. Charlotte Herbine
Mock, undertakes a project whether
1t be a hospital, working girls home,
chicken ranch or art exhibit, she
always puts 1t through. A woman OF
exceptional experience, Mrs. Mock has
made the wide world her playground,
for there are but few really interest
ing places she has not visited in
search OF adventure or some special
bit of knowledge.
She Is the founder Of the Coulter
Hospital, Grosvenor Square, London,
used during the war and for year
after its close, and also the Home
for Delinquent Girls in Chicago. She
is the author of various works on
psychical, scientific and artistic sub
jects. She is a member of most OF
the important clubs of England and
Am erica. Among her many inter
esting experiences has been that of
being entertained successfully BY
thirteen maharajahs of India, from
whom her party received the utmost
honors and courtesies.
She has collected q unique group OF
recipes from many lands, one Of which
is Greek cabbage. To prepare It, re-
move the large outside leaves of the
cabbage. Boil until very tender one
pound Of beef and one pound OF fresh
lean pork. Chop one onion with one
Glove Of garlic. Chop the meat fine
and mix with one tablespoonful OF
olive oil and one tablespoonful OF
vinegar, then add the minced onion
and roll in balls. Wrap these in cab
bage leaves. using plenty OF the cab
bage. Tie with a clean white string
and cook for half an hour in q deep
skillet, using one tablespoonful of
olive oil with half cupful of boiling
water. Let simmer until a rich brown

that piles do not require the knife" {"
That is quite true Seldom is IL knife
employed in the surgical treatment
of piles. But charlatans who purport
to cure piles without surgery" de-
ceive their victims grievously, for the
several methods they employ for the
obliteration of piles are as truly sur
gical as the ligature of an artery or
the use of q cautery is.
Compared with an attack of piles"
the surgical cure is a great comfort
from beginning to end, and with all
the modern facilities and knowledge
to make such treatment safe and
effective it is indeed foolish for any
body to suffer or be disabled from

Chestnut Bread.

There was once French chef in q
noted New York hotel who made a
bread which became one of the spe-
cialties OF the house. This bread
had a peculiar but delicious flavor all
its own. For long time the Chef
guarded his recipe carefully. but one
day when he was about TO return
home to his dear France one OF the
rich patrons of the house induced him
TO give up his recipe for n liberal
consideration. The chef called II
chestnut bread" and It was the
chestnuts in 1T which gave 1t the elu-
sive flavor. SO the chef affirmed. II
was made as follows: Take two cup
fuls of unsifted graham flour, one
cupful of pastry flour, two-thirds OF
cupful of brown sugar, one tea
spoonful of salt, three teaspoonfuls
of baking powder, two cupfuls of
buttermilk, one and one-eighth tea
spoonfuls of soda and one cupful OF
finely chopped cEestnuts. To the
graham flour add the pastry flour,
sugar, salt and baking powder. When
thoroughly mixed, add the remain
ing ingredients. Turn into a but
