A Tempting Dessert

This is a dessert which ought to
please the children, and is certainly
good for them, as well as for hungry
adults. Cut a hole in the top of an
orange or lemon, and empty out the
inside with a small sharp spoon or
fork. Fill up with fine favored
orange gelatine and put on the ice to
chill. When the jelly is formed, cut
the fruit in four sections and serve
in a glass dish garnished with fresh
fruit such as sections of pineapple
and strawberries. Decorate with
whipped cream If you want cream.
The gelatin used may be any flavor
and good effects are obtained If cur
rant or red raspberry flavoring is
used in place of the orange. The fin
ished jelly filled orange may be sliced
crosswise into slices instead of quar-
ter sections if you prefer.

PAGE FOR WOMEN
Recipes for Dainty Desserts

Cake bakers of late seem to have
been getting out their favorite reci-
pes, copying them with pleasant rec
elections of their goodness and send
ing them in to US. Here are several
unusually good ones to be added to
our files and, we hope, to the files of
our readers.
Chocolate Cream Cake
This cake looks very imposing with
its two contrasting icings and tastes
as good as it looks.
Into a mixing bowl put one whole
egg and the yolks of two eggs, one
cup of granulated sugar, five table
spoons of butter, five teaspoons of
baking powder and one-fourth tea
spoon of salt. Beat all until very
light and sugar and butter are dis
solved. Add one-half cup of milk
and two cups of pastry flour. Beat
well and add one teaspoon of vanilla
and pour into a well CREASED loaf tin.
The batter will be very stiff, but
the amount of flour must not be de-
creased.
Cover the tin with an inverted tin
of the same size and shape and keep
covered throughout the baking. Bake
in a moderate oven $3.50 FL about
so minutes. Cover with:
Chocolate Cream Icing
White part: To the unbeaten white
of one egg add one teaspoon of lemon
Juice and one cup of confectioner' S
sugar. Stir until the sugar is moist

Invitations

Now. that the fall season has ar
rived social functions are in evidence
and invitations are vending their
way to our mail boxes. Whether or
not it is possible for us to attend all
of these functions, we feel honored
to know that we have place on the
social list of our friends. If the af-
fair is formal one or of limited
number it is proper to acknowledge
receipt and advise the hostess of our
acceptance or regret.
Many invitations carry the phrases
''R. S. v. p, Please reply" Some
authorities claim that all invitations
should be answered; and that, there
fore, these requests for a reply are
a reflection on the good manners of
the people invited. But such is not
the popular understanding. All invi-
tations that are plainly limited to a
certain number of guests-as din
nerg, luncheons, card parties and
certain exclusive receptions-should
be answered at once, in order that
the vacancies may be filled. Wheth-
err or not the invitation is accompa-
MED with the request for reply,
all thoughtful people will recognize
the propriety. But on many occasions
where numbers are not necessarily
limited, only the hostess can say
whether or not the reply is urgent,
since it Is question of her personal
convenience, or some other individ-
ual matters.
A note invitation to dinner re-
quires written note of reply within
"a hours.
Those who entertain often and in
formal manner may use card in
vitatibn, engraved in script, with
blank spaces in which may be written
the name of the guest, the words "a
dinner" or Eat cards." etc., and the
date and hour. If special event is
to follow the dinner or cards, the
words indicating it are written on the
lower lefthand corner of the invita-
ton or across the lower part; "Mu-
steal Program" Dance" "Theater,"
"Outing."

Card invitations to wedding are
issued in the name of the brides par
ents; or, if she is an orphan, by
guardian or some relative or friend
who gives her the wedding. They are
sent in two envelopes !. the inner one
contains the invitation itself - the
flap of this envelope is not muci-
LACED. The outside one bears the
name and address.
A popular method of inviting
guests to small affairs is followed by
the use of the visiting card. 1t may
serveato request ones presence to an
informal dance, musicale, a dinner,
to bridge; etc. The hostess merely
writes the date and hour and Bridge
at O'Clock, or Dancing at 10
O'clock" etc, and in the lower cor
ner, r. S. ". p, or if she is enter
tanning in honor of some one, ito
meet Miss, Mary Smith" is written
above her name and "Wednesday,
October 25';s' Dancing at 10 o'clock"
below to the left and always two
lines. Even visiting cards must be
answered formally or worded in the
third person.
OnOTI nOllCt lnNlIdtlonS are Olleh
issued over the telephone, at which
time acceptance ,or regrets usually
are final 1EAaf'
1t is permissible to ask for an
invitation to luncheon, card party
or club dance for q friend who is
visiting ones house.
When regrets are mailed 1t is not
necessary to give the reason for de-
clining. Invitations once accepted are
binding obligations. If illness or any
other cause arise, making it impos-
sible to go to a dinner or luncheon
after the acceptance an immediate
note of explanation or regret should
be sent to the hostess.
If one finds it impossible to at
tend wedding, telegram of con-
graduation should be sent immedi-
ately after the hour for the cere-
mony.

Household Hints
Dressing Gown

Dressing Gown
The boyish dressing gown of fig
ured black taffeta is sponsored by
some of the nobby shops. Cartridge
pleats at the sides give flared fullness
to these gowns which are trimmed
with silk braid or black velvet with
frog fastenings.
New Hats
The new hats are eyebrow hats"
so cut as to achieve an effect of be-
ing tilted. They show the left eye
brow distinctly. Eyes and eyebrows
will receive more of milady's atten-
ton, it is said, as they are important
to the line of the hat.
Cleans Walls
A bag of cotton flannel large
enough to. fit over the broom is the
best article in the world to clean cell
ings and high walls. As soon as II
is the least bit soiled it can be re-
moved, washed and put back again.
Uniting Idea
Before dyeing or tinting curtains
or garments, run a few threads of
white cotton through the ends so they
are dyed with the rest of the mate
rial. After dyeing they may be pulled
out and rolled on spool to be used
for mending or hemming. They will
match exactly.
Saves Eyesight
If threading the needle is a strain
on your eyes try using an embroidery
needle instead of a regular sewing
needle. The long eye is much easier
to thread and takes away lot of the
eye strain Immediately.

B. T.-No; witch hazel, used as an
astringent, does not cause hair Go
grow on the face. Superfluous hair
is due to popularity of the struc-
ture of the skin and not to any To-
tons or creams used.

Eva C.--The same dye may be
used for darkening the eyebrows as
for the hair, but unless applied by
an experienced person will be easily
detected. The eyebrow pencil is the
easier method for darkening eye

Beauty Answers

M. E. B.-When the skin does not
normally furnish enough oil to keep
it in a good healthy condition some
form of grease must be applied. Cold
cream is the best fatty application.
II should be worked into the skin at
night and as much as possible should
be left ON all night. An oily skin can
not stand the use of much cream.
Soap and water may be used instead
and rich and greasy foods, sugars and
starches should be eaten sparingly,
as oily skin is often associated with
digestive troubles.
E. G.-Exercise is important in
stimulating the functions of the diff
ferent organs of the body, particular
ly the organs of digestion. For a per-
son of sedentary occupation one hour
day given to exercise is not too
much. 1t is an excellent practice.
Stick to it.
". B. C.-No. Cold showers are
not sufficient for cleanliness. In adj
dition you need about three warm
baths each week. These may be TIA
ken at night, as the warm bath re-
lakes the muscles and nerves and in
duces sleep. The cold bath tones up
the skin. II the cold bath isn't pos
sible, then cold sponge bath may be
taken.
II. E. C. Where the hair is
straight marcel will be more sat
isfactory-that is, the wave will last
longer. No; glycerine and rose water
will not cause hair to grow. You
may massage cold cream into the lips
several times day If they are in
clined to chap.
Eva C.--The same dye may be
used for darkening the eyebrows as
for the hair, but unless applied by
an experienced person will be easily
detected. The eyebrow pencil is the
easier method for darkening eye
brows.
B. T.-No; witch hazel used as an
astringent, does not cause hair 60
grow on the face. Superfluous hair
is due to popularity Of the struc-
ture of the skin and not to any To-
tons or creams used.
A. IA lack of iron in the system
may result in anaemia. To increase
the iron in your system eat foods
which contain iron, such as spinach,
lettuce, eggs, dried fruits, raisins,
figs and the whole grain cereals.
This is better way than taking an
iron tonic.
Colleen-Dilated veins are con-
spicuous on thin hands. Raise the
hands above the head and massage
them in this position to build up the
tissues. Witch hazel cream is good
to use for this purpose. The move
ment of wringing the hands is rec
commended, especially If a fattenine
cream has first been applied.

OPPORTUNITY FOR HIGH
SCHOOL GIRLS IN CONTEST
Sponsored by the National Live
Stock and Meat Board.

Local high school girls are to be
given an opportunity to win univer-
sity scholarship through competition
IN national meat story contest, ac-
cording to formal announcement of
the event which has just been sent
out to home economics teachers by
