Ensembles With Ceorgette Wraps
BY MARY MARSHALL.

Lace, white lace, black lace, or lace
dyed to match the frock with which
they are to be worn. There are
georgette coats. often the georgette
wrap is part OF an ensemble.
Sometimes the frock is likewise of
seorgette and sometimes of one of
the silk crepes. The sketch shows
something of this sort-the coat of
crepe georgette, edged with fur about
the hem. and worn over a frock of
crepe dc chine, which is trimmed with
crepe de chine-both georgette and
crepe de chine being of a soft shade
OF gray.
The same model might we'll be de-
veloped in one Of the new so-called
natural tones. which are. of course,
the tawny shades of unbleached and
undyed silken or woolen fabrics. The
band of fur is gray to match the gray
frock and should be chosen to match
the georgette as nearly as possible,
since the effect would be rather
marred by a striking contrast in the
tone of this fur and the frock.
1t is this desire to maintain the
monotone in certain frocks that has
undoubtedly prompted the French
who have been using the
dyed furs that have caused so much
comment recently II you want to
trim a manve frock with fur and do
not want to create a striking con-
trast, the simplest thing to do is to
have the fox or hare or rabbit that
you use dyed a similar tone of mauve.

Pumpkin Preserves.

Pare off the outer skin of a pump

then divide each half into a numbe +
Of smaller pieces. Put them into a
stone jar and add one-half n cupful
of salt to every five pounds of pump
kin. Cover with cold water and let
stand for five hours, then drain and
cover with fresh cold water. Soak for
two hours longer. changing the water
three or four times. Drain and cover
with boiling water, bring to the boil
ing point, then drain again. Make a
sirup from two and one-half pounds
of granulated sugar and one and one
half quarts Of boiling water and boil
for five minutes, skimming occasion
ally. When perfectly clear, put in
the pumpkin and simmer very gently
until you can pierce it with a straw.
When tender, lift the pieces out care
fully with a skinner, place them on
a large plate and place in cool oven
to harden. Peel the yellow rind from
one large lemon, add it to the sirup,
then strain in the juice of two lemons
and add a small piece of green ginger
root cut in thin slices. Boil gently
for Is minutes and stand aside. When
the pumpkin is firm, put it cold into
sterilized jars, bring the sirup again
to the boiling point, and strain it
over the pumpkin. Cover closely.

cut. You know he was very stiff. He
was a long time about it, but at last
Buster got to his feet.
Peter held his breath. Would Bus
ter look around in that bedroom of
his? But Buster didn't He shook
himself. He had stopped making
those strange noises. He was making
only one noise now, and that was
growl, grumbly, rumbly growl way
down in his throat. He was back to
Peter. He was looking out toward
the entrances. Slowly, oh, so slowly
he began to move toward that en-
trance. He moved very slowly. He
grunted with every step. 1t seemed
to Peter that he never would get to
that entrance.
Very softly Peter stole along be-
hind him. He didn't dare get close to
Busters heels, but he wanted to be
near enough to run out of that bed
room at the very first chance. At the
entrance Buster poked his head out
and then he stood for a long, long,
long time. He couldn't seem to make
up his mind to go out. Once he half
turned as If he had decided not TO go
out. You should have seen Peter
Rabbit scurry back TO the very back
of that cave. Ny, but Peter was
scared,
But Buster didn't see him. Once
more he put his head outside and
stood blinking and looking about. He
shifted the air. He kept smiling and
shifting. He grumbIed at the snow.
I've walked up too early" growled
Buster in his grumbly, rumbly voice.
i've walked up too early. l may as
well go back and go to sleep again"
But he didn't go back. He put one
paw out in the snow and then drew
it back. He did the same thing with
the other paw. Finally he went
wholly outside and stood looking
around.
Now Peter was right at his heels
Now was his chance. With a great
jump Peter bounded out past Buster
Bear, and away he went lipperty-lip-
perty-lip. My, how Peter did run!
He made straight for a pile of brush
and crept into 1t. Not until then did
he look back. Buster Bear was
standing right there at the entrance
to his bedroom, blinking his eyes
"Now where did that long cared
rascal come from?" grumbled Buster
with a funny look of surprise on his
face. IT didn't see him anywhere
about. Yet he seemed to run out
from right under my nose. If l were
hungry I'd just go pull that pile of
brush to pieces. But 1 don't feel hun
cry. I don't feel as if 1 had any
stomach at all. I guess I'll look
around a bit and then I'll go back and
finish my sleep"
So without another look in Peters
direction Buster Bear slowly shuffied
away Peter drew a long breath.
Then he looked around sharply to see
if Reddy Fox was anywhere about
Reddy wasn't. Peter drew another
long breath. Il can't get back to the
dear Old Briar Patch too quickly"
said he, and off he started.

What Tomorrow Means to You
BY MARY BLAKE.
Pisces.
One Mother Says

TOmorrow's planetary aspects are
very benign. and, while they do not
favor any forceful action in any
special line Of endeavor, they do de-
note an atmosphere of contentment
and peace. which will render fruit
full all Sunday obseryances and rec
reations. The vibrations are stimu-
lative and beneficent, and only for a
short time in the evening will there
be experienced any tendency to lack
OF harmony or desire for argument
This adverse aspect is Of very brief
duration, and, If proper self-control
be exercised. need not mar a day that
will be replete with happiness and
FREQ from regrets.
A child born tomorrow will be
quite normal in a physical sense. 1t
Will suffer, as most children do, from
the usual ailments 70 which all are
heir. 1t will, however, emerge from
all these attacks successfully and
attain physical normally. It's dispo-
sition will be more boisteTous than
gentle; its character will be more
than ordinarily dependent on environ
mcnt from its childhood, as il will be
very subject to external influence.
Under any and all circum stances it
will never be very studious, but will
always evince more interest in the
=
demanding concentrated mental ef-
fort. This child will probably sue
ceed. but will only do so If kept away
from everything that savors of .
sedentary character
IL tomorrow is your birthday, you
are of a very easygoing disposition,
and do not allow success, or the lack
Of it. to worry you. You possess no
particular ambition. and find your
MI inn oil
as doing the work intrusted to you
in a conscientious manner. You new
er. however. seek more work to do
than that which you are told to do.
Your home life is very happy. as
you do not expect too much and are
contented with little, SO long as
your personal comfort does not suf-
fer and your few individual wants
are supplied.
You do. however. evince greater
interest in your children. and shower
more affection on them than is usual
and you seem to sense what is lack
ing in your own make up and try
to fire them with ambition and the
will to succeed.
Well known persons born on this
date are John James Piatt, poet and
journalist; William Dean Howells
author and poet; Albert S. Bickmore,
naturalist Augustus Saint-Gaudens,
sculptor; Richard II. Jesse, educator;
Charles +. Lummis, author and ex-
plorer.

artistic appreciation nor to evenness

However, something can usually be
done to help out such a room by the
selection of the furniture. Needless
to say, all superfuities should be dis
carded. Furniture built along straight
lines is generally best. 1t not only
looks smaller. but actually takes up
less space, where space is at a pre-
MUM. Ever try to squeeze through
the narrow passage between a bow
end bed and the bow-out curve of a
massive dresser? That's il, exactly.
Four poster beds-especially the
ones that have foot rails instead Of
panels-because they afford so much
work that can be seen through, give
the appearance of space and make il
seem that there is more room than
there is The appeal OF the four
posters is undeniable, and their CO.
loniaI charm also furnishes the key
note for providing the other furniture
in the room of the same simplicity
and unpretentious type.

NV Neighbor Says:

Grapefruit and oranges may
be judged by their weight.
Never buy a light fruit. A
heavy, thin-sk inned fruit is al
ways the best,
Worn table linen may be
made into slip covers and put
over magazines. These make
excellent mats for hot dishes
and the covers may be washed
easily.
Never buy a cheap comb. s
the uneven, rough or jagged
teeth not only break the hair,
but often irritate the scalp.
A good way to use stale bread
is to cut it into squares, tri-
angles or rounded shapes, fry 1t
serve with bacon or other
meats. Heat the fat in the fry
ing pan until 1t smokes, then
put in the bread and fry to a
golden brown color. Drain on
paper and serve very hot.
Irons can be kept smooth by
washing them in strong soap
suds and carefully drying them.
Keep your irons in a box where
they Will always be dry.
If you find in washing dishes
that soap chips will not dis
solve quickly, put the chips in
clean salt bag. tie the top of
the bag with string, put the bag
in the dishpan and let hot water
run. You will soon have soap

SoURCE-A given name.
This group or names constitutes a
class of variations of the clan name
of MacDougall. borne by one of the
leading clans of Scotland, and all Of
them occur as family names adopted
by branches or septs of that clan.
Certain OF them, too, are not ex-
clusively Scottish, but are to be found
in Ireland as we'll
That the same names should spring
up Independently in Scotland and Ire
land, though In some cases from diff
ferent sources. is not strange, for the
bulk of the Scottish Highland clans
trace back TO various periods of con-
quest and colonization of Scotland
by the Dalrisdic Scots from the north
of Ireland, virtually all of which took
place prior TO the fifth century A. Il.
The difference in the Gaelic of the
Highlands and that Of Ireland is
more a difference of dialect than Of
language.
The family names in this group.
like that of MacDougall, trace back
to the given name of Dougal, from
the Gaelic "dhu," meaning dark, -
and gall" for stranger" In the
very early period this was the High
lander'S name for man of the low
country, but it very quickly became
a given name.
The family name of MacCoul was
more anciently spelled "MakouL"

Poached Eggs With Sauce.

Cut the crust from as many slices
of bread as are required, dip the
bread in the egg and milk, then fry

Cream sauce is ordinary melted but
