Flowers are even more important

Velvet and VeIveteen
on Winter Style Card

Suits, long coats and ensembles are
here ia such beUildering variety that
the difficulty lies not in finding some
thing becoming and appropriate, but
in limiting ones choice.
Many of the new coats have much
movement around the hem, produced
by the introduction of circular godets
and plaits Sometimes this fullness is
in back, sometimes in front, and occa-
sionally one sees it placed at the sides.
Many Of the new wraps have all the
fur at the neck and around the cuffs,
while very popular model has band
Of fur stretching from neck to hem. A
coat Of unusual luxury is made Of a
soft wooden material in a clear red.
The coat is lined with fur and this lin
ing Is so arranged that both coat and
lining can be worn separately.
Velvet and velveteen promise to play
an important part in the winters pro-
gram. Very successful are coats of
black velvet worn with long straight
tunics Of contrasting color and mate
rial. An attractive model is Of black
velvet, trimmed with ermine, and worn
with tunic of green and gold tinsel
brocade.

Artistic Motifs
in Latest Silks
Architecture and Painting
Are Used for Designs Of
Dress Materials.

1t seems far look into the future to
consider the new dress materials as
they come from the ateliers of their
authors, says a Paris fashion author
ity in the New York Times.
Last year it was the iron work of
Brandt from which were taken the
graceful lines of the "Ferronier" crepes
and chiffons, of which the smartest
summer styles were made and which
are still popular for the softer frocks,
negligees, Innings and scarfs. The sue
cess of these was so concrete and far
reaching that the artists have gone
again into great buildings for their in
spiration. They have found it in the
stained glass windows of cathedrals,
cloisters and classic assembly halls and
have established their first examples
in models at the Paris exposition
These Vnraux dart created by Nine.
Jean Ferries express in the colored me-
sale and loaded lines the ultra modern,
the fufuristic form of design; and this
scheme entire has been transferred to
the silks that come from American
LOOMS They have been adapted with
the greatest latitude in patterns and
OF colors, attaining results never Wis
ualized by their authors.
Reversing sharply the bright, some
times violent colors of the last sea-
sons, these new silks will bring back
the pastel shades, with more Vitality.
The first things for spring, brought out
to meet the requirements of the Palm
Beach season, will be done in the most
enhancing violets, mauves. green's and
turquoise blue. In some of the floral
designs, the most delicate and the
richest of all the motifs, an occasional
top note is introduced In the vivid Rus

greatly with the shape of the ham, it's
age, and the kind Of cure.
To bake ham that has been boiled
first, remove the skin and cover it with
the following paste: One cupful of
brown sugar, one cupful of fine, soft
bread crumbs, one teaspoonful of
mustard, and enough vinegar or cider
to hold the paste together. Stick the
ham with whole cloves and bake for
30 to 60 minutes, basting with one
cupful of water mixed with one-fourth
cupful of vinegar or cider and two
tablespoonfuls of brown sugar.
Good results may also be obtained
by cooking the ham in a fireless cooker
until tender, and then preparing it for
serving in the same way as ham
cooked directly on the stove.
After the first festive serving of the
ham, it may appear in many forms on
the table, and if alternated with other
meats, it need'not become monotonous.
Pieces that cannot be sliced may be
put through the food chopper and used
for sandwiches, hashes, creamed dishes,
omelets, and in other ways. The
ground ham, if covered with layer Of
rendered ham fat, will keep in the re-
frigerator for several weeks.
Even when there is no special occa-
sion for serving whole ham, the ten
pound size will be found economical.
The amount of meat in proportion to
bone and fat is satisfactory, almost
all the meat will cut into attractive
slices, and If properly stored, the
cooked meat will keep well. The en-
tire ham may be cooked at one time,
or it may be cut in half, and each half
be cooked separately. The uncooked
piece should be carefully wrapped In
waxed paper and stored in cool, but
not too cold place, preferably hanging
where air circulates around it. Some
times butcher is willing to cut ham
and sell one-half at a time. Smaller
hams may be found on the market, but
the texture of the meat is not so good
nor the cuts so satisfactory as in the
medium-sized hams.

Well-baked ham is one of the most
attractive meats that can be served
on the family table. 1t is appropriate
for any of the holiday occasions when
an especially good dinner is in order,
for 1t not only looks delicious, but has
an appetizing fragrance developed
from the brown sugar and whole cloves
used on its surface during baking, and
an Incompatible flavor due to this sea-
soning and the method of cooking. At
old-fashioned Thanksgiving dinners it
was not unusual to see a baked ham
at one end of the table and a roast
turkey at the other; the flavor of the
two meats seem to blend well.
Ham is generally baked after a pre-
liminary boiling to make it tender and
shorten the length Of time it remains
In the oven, but with 0care a moist,
tender ham may be baked from the
start. In most cases, however, a COM
bination OF boiling and baking is pre-
ferred. II the ham rs at all dry or
very salty IL should be soaked In cold
water for several hours before being
put on to cook.
For ordinary family use, even with
several guests, a ten-pound ham will
be found convenient. The United
States Department of Agriculture gives
the following directions for cooking
a ham of this size:
Wash the ham thoroughly and trim
off any mold or loose pieces. Soak
over night if the ham is unusually dry
or salty. Otherwise, put directly into
cold water with teaspoon and a
half Of picking spice, three slices each
Of carrot and onion, stalk Of celery,
half teaspoonful Of celery salt,
sErig of parsley, and a quarter of
cupful of strong vinegar Bring to
boil and cook just below the boiling
point four hours, or until it is tender
when pierced with a long-tined fork.
The meat should be somewhat shrunk
from the bone, but the ham should not
be overlooked or 1t will be difficult to
carve. The time Of cooking varies

OF emphasizing detail, even the clasp
on hand bag is given attention, and
some among the new bags (most Of
which are of medium size, envelope

of tortoise shell, of jade, fine enamel

1 cupful milk 1 cupful sugar
AZ cupfuls sifted 2teaspoonfuls salt
soft-wheat -four u teaspoonful
teaspoonfuls bak- cinnamon
Ing powder Is teaspoonful
teaspoonfuls fat nutmeg
2 eggs
Place the fat in warm place until
1t becomes soft, though not melted, so
that it may be combined easily with
the sugar. Stir in the beaten egg yolks
and add alternately the dry ingredi-
ents, which have been mixed and sifted
together, and the milk. Add only a
small quantity of liquid at the start.
Add the flavoring and fold in the we'll
beaten egg whites last. Roll out the
dough about one-third inch thick with
out handling it any more than neces-
sary. Cut out the doughnuts and fry
in deep fat, hot enough (375 degrees
Fahrenheit) to make a doughnut rise
to the surface quickly and to brown
each side in about one minute. Drain
on brown paper. When dry they may
be rolled in pulverized sugar.
One of the secrets of success in
making doughnuts is the use Of plain
mixture such as the above. A rich
dough tends to absorb too much fat in
frying. The dough should be rolled
smooth and not too thick, for rough
surface absorbs more fat, and a thick
doughnut does not cook entirely
through in the short frying period. If
the fat is not hot enough the dough-
nuts will be greasy. Doughnuts can
be forced under the fat to make them
brown evenly and quickly by pushing
a wire frying basket down on them.

Rikhoff Says Check-up on
Release Is News to Him.

Police Chief Herman Rikhoff said
today he knew nothing Of an In
vestigation that was being made in
regard to the alleged release Of a
man and woman arrested on In
toxlcation charges on bond before
the expiration of the four hour limit,
which requires the confinement of
a drunken person for that period of
time.
1t was rumored at police head
quarters that Captain Sumner or
dered the release OF William Davey,
"a. of 1854 s. Senate Ave. and Ruth
Hill, "a, OF 427 N. Capitol Ave, one
hour and twenty minutes after they
had been slated. Davey was
charged with drunkenness, resisting
an officer, interfering with an officer
and vagrancy and the woman was
charge dwith drunkenness. driving an
auto while intoxicated resisting ar
officer and vagrancy.
Cases of the two will be heard In
city court Friday.
