PLUM PUDDING.
Mrs. AtIee POn<Pene.

Mrs. Atlee Pomerene, wife of for
mer Senator Pomerene of Ohio, whose
term expired last March. is again
picking up the social threads where
they were dropped year ago. as Mr.
Pomerene is one of the special coun-
sci appointed by President Coolidge
to conduct the oil investiga tion.
Mrs. Pomerene clings to her tried
and tested dishes as to old friends.
Here is the formula for her favorite
plum pudding:
One cupful suet. chopped very fine:
three cupfuls of flour, one teaspoon
full soda, one cup currants, half tea
spoonful cinnamon, half teaspoonful
salt, one cup molasses. one cupful
sweet milk, one cupful seeded raiSinS.
one cupful nut meats, chopped; one
quarter teaspoonful nutmeg. one
eighth teaspoonful ginger.
To make: Put the finely chopped
suet in a bowl, adding the salt and
spices. also the molasses. Dissolve
the soda in a little water and after
and -four, putting in the fruit and nut
meats last. after they have been well
Toured. Pour into molds and steam
for three hours.
This may be served with the usual
hard sauce and the hot liquid sauce
A good hard sauce is made by beat
ing until very creamy two table
spoons of butter and cupful of
powdered sugar, then beat in the
juice of lemon and pinch of nut
meg and set in a cold place until
needed.
Chopping suet is made easier if
little sifted flour is used with it and
the chopping done in a cold place.

New Color Combinations In Shops
ny MARY MARSHALL.

Makers and purvcyors OF women's
clothes are finding that with every
season there is an ever greater de-
mand for knowledge of colors. In
other words, the question of color in
womens clothes has passed from a
fairly simple stage when there were
only three or four new" colors
season to the present time when
every season scores of new" shades
and colors are devised.
Once brown was merely brown"
now they talk of tete de Negro.
Of Havana or tobacco. Instead of
blue they speak of powder or
Yeason there are new green's. They
still talk of Lanvin, reseda and even
of jade, but newer are aphrodite and
tarragon and bud green.
For each mixture of color pig
ments there is often a whole range
of colors, and milliners and dress
makers have taken advantage of the
. charm that lies in such shadings-
Shadings that suggest the effect of
sunset where deep pink will shade
off to an almost imperceptible blush
or the shading of pigment Son the
petals of flower, from deep tones
at the edge to the faintest shades
at the center.
II is possible to buy chiffon shaded
in this manner-in rose, yellow and
other colors-at any of the shops, and
this is used in making scarfs, many
"f them edged with ostrich fringe
Narrow ribbons ranging from light
est to a vivid tone of a certain color
are used in trimming picturesque
evening frocks. The idea is worked
out interestingly in the crown of
felt hat that ranges from d vivid
green at the brim to n pale yellow
at the center of the crown. 4 dis
tinctly. faded effect is the result. In

in the Mathewson and Matheson
classifcations.
The change from the "th' in Ma
thew TO a "ck" or * in English
was brought about as the result OF
the use of one OF the Anglo-Saxon
diminutives of the name. Mat" was
a short form of Mathew. "Matkin;"
through the addition of the diminutive
ending kin" meant Little Mat"
Hence the meaning of Matkinson is
clear But that combination of "tk "
in the middle of the name was as
harl for the English tongue of the
middle ages as for US, and, the *" be-
ing the more dominant sound, the
- just naturally dropped out.
The development of the Scottish
