five minutes cooking should be
enough, according to the United States
Department Of Agriculture.
Season the cooked asparagus with
SALT pepper, butter, and little cream,
if you have it. Let it stand in warm
place for a few minutes and then
serve, either alone or on toast Many
people who have been accustomed to
serving the whole stalks accompany
them with mayonnaise or vinaigrette-
similar to French dressing-or with
hollandaise or white sauce. These
sauces may be used equally well with
the cut-up asparagus. Pass the sauce
separately.
The water in which asparagus has
been cooked can be used in many ways
and should be saved. 1t makes de-

Stolen Pigs Eat Stolen
Corn in Stolen Sites

Rushville, Ind.-Stolen pigs fed
with stolen corn on a farm bounded
by stolen fence, whose owner lived in
a house built of stolen material with
stolen tools and fitted with stolen fix
lures, were described to police by
Fred Clevenger, Jr.. twenty-six, when
he was arrested for chicken thefts.
Sale within three weeks of $500
worth of chickens brought about Clev-
enger's arrest. While being questioned
about the poultry, he unburdened a
troubled conscience without restraint
and told of his stolen home complete.
Two hours after the confession, farm
ers living near by were recovering
their pigs, plows and pumps from
Clevenger's four-acre tract, dairymen
were claiming their COWS, poultry fan
ciers were identifying their chickens,
and representative Of three lumber
companies were speculating about how
to dismantle the ''stOlen" house to re-
cover the parts of it built with ma
terial taken from their yards.

Afternoon Dress Of Blue Georaette; !;
Plated Bands Of Taffeta.

Ton. Old prints, both French and Eng
iish, reveal interesting and some
times exotic sleeve styles. There has
been the plain, "tailleur," known by
this name, whether it was made of
tulle or of velvet, so it followed close
Iy the contour of the arm. There was
the bishop" most fiattering when it's
full-gathered material was chiffon or
any other sheer stuff having that
elusive, caressing quality. This sleeve
was gathered full into an armhole of
generous width and was drawn into
a band, usually Of ribbon, at the wrist
with an edge left free to form a frill,
originally an exact copy of the sleeve
of a bishops robe. The nun sleeve,
cut almost straight, was wide at the
top and the bottom. OF the same
vintage as these were the bell shape,
the angel sleeve and other models.
The one among the distinctive styles
OF long ago, which has found little
encouragement in revival, is the leg
O'-mutton, or the balloon sleeve. The
others all seem to have appeared in
the costumes Of this season and are
presented in the models of all the
best artists.

PUZZLTNG DEATH
LAID TO SPIRITS
Police Mystifed OUer Murder
of VoodooiSt.

Oakland, Cal.-Mysterious spirits,
subservient to Lucifer, so far have
eluded Oakland police, probing the
murder of Marcarioti Timon. But, re-
gardless of whether these spirits ac-
tually exist, detectives said they were
responsible for the death of Timon,
practitioner Of vOodooism and other
black arts.
Police are convinced that the secrets
and superstitions of a mysterious cult
of devil worshipers hold the soIu-
ton Of the crime TimOn, left dead
with his throat slashed a fortnight
ago, might have been a human sacri-
fee demanded by the strange ritual,
according to official theory.
Practices Of the cult were first barred
to view when Valquilleno Nalaska ad-
mitted that Timon had once invited
him to his house. There Timon NUT
tered cabalfstic words and showed him
dried hens blood and other symbolic
substances, Nalaska said
A manual of Timon's strange cult,
translated, revealed the following for
mula for obtaining audiences with a
spirit:
Catch black hen, obtaining one
that has never laid eggs. Catch it with
care SO it does not cry out. To do
this, catch it at two o'clock in the
morning.
"Take it to the center of cross
roads that form q Dorfoof orocc NV;+h
a wand of cypress draw a mystic cir
Gle. This done, place the hen in the
center and cut its body in two parts,
prOnouncing:
Eloim, Essian, Fingatoris, Estira-
tin, Perpendu, Sarabu'
"Then, after turning the face to the
east and bowing, recite the curse Of
the great spirit, Aldoney, and you
may confront the spirit Immediately"

Shocking Is Prominent;
Embroidery Permissible

Perhaps even more in the mode than
either tucks or fagoting is shocking.
We see it everywhere. At the cuffs
and yoke only of the less expensive
models since shocking is hand-work
and costs much. But it is also to be
had in quantities on exquisite frocks
Of georgette, fine fiat crepe and chif-
fOn. A charming effect and one fire.
Quently seen is shocking, low placed,
coming down in point at the front
of the waist.
On these fragile materials the
shocking must, indeed, be done by a
master of the art-or rather by a mis-
treSs.
Any one of the delectable creations
may be topped by swagger cape-coat
Of charmeen in powder or navy blue.
A lovely model Is in powder charmeen,
with small collar of squirrel which
harmonizes so beautifully with the
blue. Only a small collar, If you
please. For as lavishly as fur has
been used the past winter, just so
sparingly will it appear this summer.
All the fur bottoms of last years coats
must be discarded. They are as passe
as last years roses. Braid embroidery
Is permissible and narrow fur bor-
der down the front If you insist. Char
meen, by the way, Is extremely smart
once more.

SHORT SEASON FOR
FRESH ASPARAGUS
Enjoy Delicious Vegetable
While Supply Lasts.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
The season for fresh asparagus is
relatively short, so it is a good plan
to enjoy this delicious vegetable many
times and in many ways while the sup
ply lasts. Asparagus should always
be cooked as soon as possible after it
Is cut. 1t toughens and loses flavor
very rapidly If allowed to stand.
To prepare it for cooking trim off
any tough ends, brush carefully, and
scrape off the larger scales. Wash so
as to remove all sand and particles Of
earth which may have lodged under
the scales. Fresh, tender, home
grown asparagus does not need the
vigorous scraping so often given to
the mature stalks with tougher skins.
Asparagus may be cooked whole, or
cut up in inch lengths and boiled in
slightly salted water. The cooking
time of fresh tender young stalks cut
up in this way may be only five to ten
minutes; at most twenty or twenty

full of water for each pound of rhu-
barb
Cook until tender, then strain
through four thicknesses of cheese
cloth There should be about one and
one-quarter cupfuls Of juice for each
pound of rhubarb.
Add six tablespoonfuls of lemon
pectin extract and one and one-quarter
cupfuls of sugar for each cupful
of rhubarb juice, and boil. The ordi-
nary jelly test cannot always be de-
pended upon in the case of rhubarb,
particularly if the stalks are not very
young and tender, because there are
certain gummy substances present
which cause the hot juice to sheet
from the edge of the spoon, but which
do not assist in making a jelly 1t is
therefore wise to cook rhubarb Jelly
somewhat beyond the usual jelly test
Flavor Of Old Is Strong.
The flavor of old rhubarb is apt to
be strong When 1t Is to be used, the
addition of one or two pieces of lemon
or orange peel to the stems as they
cook may perhaps be Considered an
Improvement.

Recipe for a Delicious
Pork and Parsnip SfetU

Different in it's combination of
flavors from those Of the regulation
beef or lamb stew, and very delicious,
is this dish which gives the house
keeper a chance to make use Of home
grown meat and home-stored vege-
tables if she lives in the country.
If her supplies are bought at city
markets she will have no trouble in
getting the necessary ingredients.

place in the water. Boil it till tender.
Cut the salt pork in thin slices and
add it to the partially cooked meat.
Allow about twenty minutes for the
potatoes, parsnips and onion to cook,
adding them when the meat is almost
done. Mix the flour with a little cold
water and use it to thicken the stew.

Popular Polka Dots i'm
Every Size and Pattern

The vogue Of the polka dot, prophe-
sled during the late winter, is every
where apparent. In both silk and cot
ton dress materials polka dots of
every size and arrangement Of pattern
are shown. Some are large, spaced at
regular intervals, but there are few
of the huge snowy disks Of two sea-
sons ago when "dotS" were the size
Of baseballs. All of the summer"
silks, pussywillow and the crepes and
chiffons, are printed in dots, the small
er in an irregular, cluster and scat
tered plan being most in demand. The
polka-dot pattern is much used, too,
for coat Innings, slips, for parasols, in
scarves, ties, hat bands and handker-
chiefs. Very large squares are now
shown for kexchiefs to wear in the
pocket of tailored frock or a coat.
These are dashing trifles made of chif-
fon or the sheerest mousseline Among
the novelties in hosiery are some in
polka dot designs, both the very small
and those of medium size.

When very young tender rhubarb of
mild flavor is in season, some of it can
be used to make good tart jelly. 1t
will be necessary to add pectin, either
homemade or commercial, 60 the rhu-
barb juice, to make firm product.
If you do not have the pectin on
hand, send to the United States De
partment of Agriculture for Depart
ment Circular 254, Homemade Apple
and Citrus Pectin Extracts and Their
Use in Jelly Making" which tells how
to make it. Two kinds of pectin, APP
pie and lemon, can be used successful
~ with rhubarb. The lemon pectin
with the rhubarb gives an unusually
attractive color.
Pink Skin Stalks Best.
Select rhubarb stalks with as much
red or pink skin as possible. Wash
and trim stalks of rhubarb, being care
ful not to remove the bright-colored
skin. The addition of extra pink skin
improves the color of the juice. Cut

High Value of Cabbage
as Source of Viton1ines

Cabbage salad has many possibili-
ties. Either white, green or curly
cabbage may be used. Chop it fine,
and combine with a dressing made as
follows: Beat one-half pint of thick
whipping cream until stiff; add Az
tablespoonfuls of lemon juice, 2 table
spoonfuls Of fresh grated horseradish
tabasco, and salt to taste. These sea-
sonfngs may be changed according to
individual preference, but be sure
there Is enough dressing in proportion
to the cabbage. Just dash of cay
enne pepper may be used If you do
not have tabasco. If the horseradish
is in vinegar use only tablespoon
fuls Of lemon. Half pint of cream
will make dressing enough for about
3 cupfuls of finely chopped cabbage.
which will serve six people.
This salad may be used alone on a
cabbage leaf, or it may be served on
lettuce, or on either may be placed
a slice Of pineapple and on that a
good thick covering Of the cabbage
salad. A still more elaborate salad
may be prepared by adding grated
cheese to the pineapple-cabbage COM
bination. A very attractive way to
serve this cabbage, if 1t is made from
curly cabbage, is to hollow out the
head and use it as a bowl from which
the salad is served.
The value of cabbage as q source
of vitamines, especially when un-
cooked, cannot be pointed out too
many times, according to the United
States Denartment of Agriculture

Two-Piece Frocks Are
Popular for Spring

Two-piece frocks are, if anything,
more in evidence than they were last
season. However, there is O. notice
able difference. Instead of being un-
compromisingly plain and severe after
the fashion of mannish clothes, many
show feminine touches in the addition
of exquisite collars and cuffs, of frilly
jabots and cOlorful pipings and bind
ings.
The note of femininity is also re-
vealed in high stocks and jabots of
white or cream lace which are worn
with plain tailored suits. 1t is fash
ion which recalls the mode of sew
eral decades ago but it's new enough
to this generation to have the element
of novelty which makes for success.

paragus in making other dishes.

paragus in making other dishes.
Cooked asparagus may be used in
making scalloped dishes, croquettes,
fritters, vegetable loaf, timbales, or
added to almost any soup, stew, or
vegetable salad. Vegetable combina-
tions are increasingly popular, and
such dishes as cut-up cooked aspara
gus with new diced creamed potatoes,
or with peas, give variety to the
menu, and make profitable use Of small
amounts of each vegetable. An as
paragus omelet is an appetizing lunch
con dish, as is French toast with as
paragus sauce, made with the stock.
By the use of a pressure cooker, the
surplus Of homegrown asparagus may
be canned. Some Of the delicate,
fresh flavor will of course be lost, but
nevertheless asparagus is one Of the
best of the canned vegetables.

There was never a more felicitous
opportunity offered the woman OF
fashion in which to express her taste
and choose the type of costume she
prefers to the utmost detail. She
may have the waist of her gown in
period style, bOlero of many vari-
ants or a blouse, skirt, collar or
sleeve of one style or another. Any
or all of these she may select as she
pleases and still be in the mode
