hearth to rise overnight back In the
old days! Our grandmothers probably
had no idea why they did this, but
experience taught them the necessity.
"OUICK BREADS" have earned
" that title because they are ac-
tually quicker to make than the wheat
bread. A leavening that works faster
than yeast is used-such as baking
soda and sour milk-baking powder,
etc. These will "f1zz" in the bread
mixtures at once, making the dough
or batter rise promptly.
Steam and air can also be pressed
into service as leavenings. Popovers
rise with steam-Sponge cake with air.
In both these cases, however. you need
the help Of eggs. The popover batter,
for instance, is very thin-so thin, in
fact, that If it were made only of -four
and milk or flour and water the gluten
would be spread out so fine that it
would not stretch enough to make
the popover shell. The egg protein,
which also "sets" when heated, REIN
forces the gluten in the batter.
Thus, with gluten, We may have
light breads and cakes in a large va
riety-if we only know how to manage
the gluten in each case Also atten-
| ton must be paid to just how much
the batter is to be stirred or the dough
to be kneaded. Gluten develops with
either of these activities and thickens

RY ELSIE PIERCE.

YESTERDAY we were talking about
IL the five factors in beauty and
ct course the figure has very
prominent place on the list. What
woman is not conscious OF her f1gure
flaws, now that the open season for
Fall wardrobe shopping is upon us?
It's either too stout, generally, or too
thin all over, or, worse yet, the weight
Is unevenly distributed.
This figure consciousness Is good for
us and we have fashion to thank for
the many beautifully-knit figures we
do see in fitting rooms these DAYS.
But don't let the pendulum swing the
other way and make you hyper-sensi-
tive Of the fiabby upper arms, the dis
tended hips, the protruding abdomen
or the flat-chested line. Don't be too
ambitious about figure Improvement.
It is harmful to overdo, one way or
another. Drastic reducing measures
never did any one any good. And you
can't overload your system in an effort
to gain weight without feeling dis
tressing after effects.
Feminine Figure the Beauty Standard.
Even in crisp sports clothes one rec
ognizes the beauty standard is very
definitely the feminine figure. A beau
tiful bust line is very important to
figure perfection. The flat-chested,
boyish form is so dead we can't
imagine its ever being revived. Firm.
beautifully nodded, amply proper
toned (but not over developed) busts
are achieved by exercise And bras
Gere manufacturers certainly help
women to achieve beautiful line.
Hips are there. too: round. feminine
and. again. firm. No fiabbiness there
and certainly no bullying. over-padded
spots. No place in the beauty scheme
for the type that usually park with
the woman who sits at q desk all
day, exercising nothing more than a
pen. Waistlines are controlled, we'll
defined. And bullying spare tire be-
tween bust and abdomen isn't even
tolerated in middle-age any more. 1t
belongs to the frumpy woman, no
matter how old or young.

whether it is for general or localized
reduction or development. I have bull
letins setting forth reducing or de-
veloping hints, diets, exercises. But
I am frank TO add that the safest
course is TO visit physician first. let
him determine the cause Of obesity or
thinness. Then get at the cause. That
done it isn't difficult to stick to a
maintenance diet Clike one have)
and a simple set Of limbering exer-
c1ses to keep the figure firm and fit.

~ ELTS are very important this
- Fall, furnishing host Of ideas
for changing the appearance
- of dresses and coats and often
adding the final touch of color or
sparkle that a dark dress needs. Belts
are growing wider and wider. as well
as brighter and brighter, and have
even become jewel studded following
the Renaissance influence so replete
with massive jewelry and rich color.
This is quite a new departure for
belts, and it is fascinating one.
Black suede studded with row OF
cleaning Jewels in all colors through
the center is very lovely A wider
suede belt shows the jewels arranged
in motifs at intervals, which is Won
derfully effective and may be COM
bined with large clip or pin at the
throat, using the same jewel colors-
sapphire, emerald, topaz and ruby.
Sometimes the belt itself is plain
with a jeweled buckle. These come
in various widths and in all the dark
colors in addition to black.
Extremely wide belts Of gold kid
with large scattered jewels are stun
ming and do wonders for an un-
trimmed frock that Is cut on good
lines and made of handsome ma
terial. The fact Is that accessories
are so extraordinarily attractive this
season that the plain frock is great
asset as it can be used as back
ground for so many different kinds
of easily applied scarfs, collars and
belts. One New York shop is featur-
ing a special dress just for this pur-
pose that comes in several colors Of
crepe and may be completely changed
in appearance by the addition Of
different kinds Of accessories. 1t has
already found a wide demand. This
sort of thing is excellent news for
the clever home dressmaker, who is
able to make her own foundation
frock of the best materials at mini
mum price.

THE black suede belt sprinkled with
silver metal stars in two sizes, as

a clever buckle, too. For the sports
outfit and the schoolgirl the leather
belt with attached coin purse is in
valuable. 1t will hold tees for the
golf enthusiast and car fare and lunch
money will find a safe place in II

question to that of Monday.
It is much more difficult for a man
to tell before marriage what sort of
a wife a girl will make than it is for
a girl to tell what sort Of husband
q man will make, because, in the
first place, girls are much more adroit
in the use Of camoufage than men
are. and in the second place, they
are much more adaptable than men
are.
Few girls are themselves when they
are with men. They are not acting
naturally. They are giving lifelike
representations Of the feminine ideal
Of the man whom they are trying to
attract. Neither their compilations nor
the dispositions they exhibit for his
admiration are their own in many
cases. Girls who never read book
pretend to dote on literature. Girls
who are viragoes are so sweet and
mild that butter wouldn't melt in their
mouths. Girls who are bone lazy never
appear in public without q bit OF
work in their hands. So. in reality
1t is a difficult thing for a man to
really get acquainted with girl be-
fore he marries her.

Hits Cotton Situation
OF the japanese cotton compe

sibilities of paying a parity
bonus on the portion of the cot
ton crop which is used dOmes-
tically, and permit, with some
regulation of production, the ex-
pOrtatiOn of the balance of the
crop at world prices. If the
Southern cotton farmers receive
parity prices for domestic cot
ton, they can we'll afford to get
a world price for the balance Of
their crop"
He thought it a serious mis-
take" for the Government to make
loans to Southern farmers on thu
assumption of a 12-cent price TO,
cotton, and added:
"The world price for cotton is
between 9 cents and 10 cents
and, obviously, the world will not
buy our cotton as long as it can
purchase cotton from other ma
tionS at lower prices.
"This nation has a great stake
not only in the cotton farmer,
but in the cotton mill. Today

those relating to the territory
