Nel, Cardigans

Paris, (UP)-Mrs Reginald Eel loves has an unerring taste for what is unusual and smart and therefore it always is interesting to know what she will wear. The new cardigans and ruffled wool waist coats that Schiaparelli is showing with simple sport dresses, particu- larly pleased Mrs Fellowes who has ordered them in a variety of colors principally black, brown and green with bonnets to mtach.
 over a plain black wool or jersey frock, Mrs Fellowes wears reversible black and white knit ted waistcoat with a frilled edge that frames the face and shows under the waist length cardigan that has close fitting band, mak- ing the belt, done in an interesting cardigan, is very smart worn high on one side and held down on the other by a jeweied pin. Mrs Fellow es uses this ensemble for town wear. For afternoonu wear, Mrs Fellowes has an ensemble in black. The coat, of diagonal wool is close fitting and slim with wide shoulders and is fas- tened across the waistline in front by three large round silver '.snap'' fasteners. The frock is of brilliant black jerselsa with semi circular tucks at the high waistiine and has a frilled black and white "Tohu- Bohu" ribbon waistcoat that, rises high around the face and adds a charming finish to the coat as well as to the dress.

SALTED NUTS ARE
 EASILY PREPARED BY SISTER MARY fNEA Service Writcr) :,

tNEA StEvBLC VkAsSAJ =
 Excellent salted nuts are avail- able at many shops. but some of us like to salt our own--thereby enjoying the exact degree of salt mess we individually prefer.
 There are three ways to make salted nuts-by roasting in the oven. pan frying and deep-fat fry ing. For all nuts except peanuts the roasting process produces more crisp and tender nut than either of the other methods.
 All nuts with tough outer skin like almonds must be biancned after smelling and before saiting.
 To blanch nuts, pour over boil ing water to more than cover them and let stand five or ten minutes or until the skins slip easily. Dram and cover with cold water. Rup or pinch. off the skins. Drain as thoroughly as possible Tn coian- der and then spread on a dry linen towel; place another towel over and pat dry. If convenient iet
 stand several hours.
 Peanuts for salting should be purchased raw.
 Olive oil or butter gives the best | flavor to the nuts, although any good cooking oil is usually used l for deep-fat frying. Butter IS ex- cellent for roasting.
 TO prepare nuts for roasting
 "paint" the insides of a bowl With oil or melted butter. Put lew nuts in the bowl and shake until each nut is lightly coated with fat. Continue adding fat as necessary until all the nuts are coated, bur \ use as little fat as possible. To Bake Them Spread prepared nuts on a pax | ing pan and roast in moderate oven (about $50 degrees F:y un- l til a delicate brown. It VIII take about 20 minutes. The dryness of the nuts before coating deter. mines the length of time 1t will ! take to roast them.
 After removing from the oven sprinkle evenly but sparingiy witn salt. stirring with a fork. There l should be a distinct salt flavor but | no yestige of a crust of salt on the nut. Try one-half teaspoon salt | 10 one cup of nuts and add more If l individual taste demands.
 Instead of fat. egg white can be used. Beat the white slightly and s:paints the bowl with 1t. Add nuts a few at time and shake until coated. Roast and salt.
 1t will take about two minutes l to fry nuts in deep fat. Heat in q deep kettle to 390 degrees F. on .. a fat thermometer. Be sure the nuts are free from all moisture and spread them in a frying bas- ket. immerse in the hot fat and | fry until a delicate brown. Drain | thoroughly on brown paper or pa- per towcling and sprinkle with salt. Spread out to cool and be- come crisp.
 Spiced nuts are Drowned the same way as the salted ones. After | browning mix one-haif teaspoon each of cinnamon, cloves and ale spice with three-quarters teaspoon salt and sprinkle over two cups Ebrowned nuts.
