PcpHCI 40 GAAC betsy CaB"eII
ground-up berry Of a plant that
grows wild in the East Indies,
but which has of late years been
cultivated in other countries.
White pepper comes from the
same plant, and is the seed of
the berry freed from the skin
and the fleshy part of the fruit.
The berries are soaked in water
until they become soft enough
to have the covering rubbed
away from the seed. The
pepper seed is then bleached, to
give it it's white appearance, as
originally the seed is grayish.
Cayenne
Cayenne pepper comes from
quite a different plant-a mem
Der, in fact, of the plant family
that produces our deadly night
shade! It is a native of Central
and South America, and yields
the peppers so often found in
pickles. Cayenne pepper is
simply these peppers dried and
ground to powder. Chilies are
also a variety of this plant.
Another pepper which we
know by name Of allspice, IS
Jamaica pepper. 1t is the fruit
of a small tree that is a ma
tive of the west Indies, and
is said to combine the flavors
cinnamon, nutmeg and Glove;
hence its name Of allSpice.
Ginger is the dried rootstock
of the ordinary ginger plant,
which is cultivated now in
many tropical countries-al-
though originally it came from
the West Indies.

favorite fragrance, give her
that. If you are hitting in the

One charming set, especially

cate things or the travelling

rootstock is taken up, and is
scalded with boiling water, and
then dried in the sun. The
preserved ginger that we buy
is prepared from very young
rootstocks.
Gloves
Cloves are the flower buds
of the Glove trees-which is a
member of the pink and carna-
ton family. The tree grows
from 20 to 40 feet in height
and the leaves, flowers and
bark all possess the odor pc
culiar to cloves.
The flowers are Of a deli
cate peach pink color, which
turns later to red. At this
stage, when the fruit is begin
ming to develop, the flowers are
beaten from the tree, dried
first by wood fires, and then
by the sun, which leaves them
the hard, brown cloves so
familiar to us all. Oil of cloves
is obtained by distillation with
water.

Domestic Dogs
Strong in
Field
BY LIZ HUME

From the Florindale strain,
"Spider" is an English setter, be-
longing to v. c. Davis, of Brad.
dock Heights, Alexandria, Va.
Mr.. Davis tells us that his dog
is pure white.
The usual coloring Is as fol-
lows: Black, white and tan; black
and white; blue Bolton; lemon
and white lemon Bolton; orange
and white; orange Bolton; liver
and white; liver Bolton, and solid
white.
Predominant
The bench-Show settlers of to-
day have a Laverack foundation.
Half century ago this was more
or less mixed with native blood,
which disappeared before rapid
importations Of dogs from
abroad. These early importa-
tions were nearly III Laverack,
or at least that strain predomi-
mated.
Those that followed them were
often mixed with other old Eng
liSh setter Strains-and all OF
them were distinguished by
much grace and beauty, partic-
ularly in coat, color, and gen.
eral outline. Many of them had
been bench-show winners abroad
and a few had appeared at Eng
lish field trials.
Occasionally they were placed
in America, but on the whole
they were lacking the speed,
dash, endurance, and unouench'
able spirit necessary to win
American stakes. Their names
are regarded with disfaVor in
field trial pedigrees.
English Bred
Among the first Laverack dogs
to be brought to this country
were: Pride of the Border and
Fairy; then came Emperor Fred
and Thunder: Plantagenet and
Foreman were prominent in
bench shows in the early sos,
and shortly afterward Rocking
ham, Princess Beatrice, Count
Howard, Monk of Furness, and
Cora of whitehall had the cen.
ter of the stage.
In the COS Albert's Ranger
was attracting a good deal Of
attention-and later came Mall.

All of these dogs, while at
tractive in appearance, lacked
rugged character and the we'll
balanced proportions of the
field-trial strain.
Most of them were bred in
England or were descended from
dogs of English breeding which,
although they might have proven
fairly satisfactory workmen I'm.

unable to cope with the field
trial type.

I don't believe there is. For
perfume is the touching.up Of
the soul-it gives a woman a
slight buoyancy, a sense of be-

perfectly groomed-and men

Perfume stirs ones fancy, it

VcISc, IllOuSh
there are both formal and
street types. The picture on
this page today shows a stun
ming street coat, so simple that
it could be worn for sports
too.
It's a gray monotone tweed.
with krimmer collar, the type
that certain Russian soldiers
wear, but I'm a little vague as
to just which soldiers. There's
a wide belt of the material,
buckled far on the side, another
distinctly Russian note. This
coat was shown in a fashion
show yesterday, in downtown
store, and will be shown again
tomorrow. 1t is $69.75, in a
fairly small size.
Russian Linens
Speaking Of things Russian,
two or three of the stores down
town have been showing the
most beautiful linens, made by
the Russian peasants. And like
many other things that come
from Russia, they are very low
priced.
These linens are white, some
times in natural color, and they
have squares or oblongs Of cut
out embroidery, of type that
is entirely distinctive, and a
little different from anything
else I've seen. Most of the
pieces are hand hemstitched,
with squares of embroidery at
the ends in each of the four
sizes.
One store has white linen
luncheon sets, cloth bigger
than bridge size, with six nap
kins, for $3.50, on sale. They
may be more by the time you
get there. Another store has
sets equally attractive, some of
them with color in the en-
broidery, for prices proportion
ately low.
