 Pork chops can be more than just that. Give them a fling with pineapple and tomatoes, chaper- oned by the reliable potato, and they will reveal undreamed of friskiness.
 Take 6 of them, 1 1-2 lbs, season with salt and pepper, then brown lightly in 8 well greased skillet. Park them in 8 quart earthen- ware or heat resistant glass utility dish.
 Now the fun begins.
 Over each chop lay one slice of canned pineapple. On top of each slice of pipeapple balance a blush- ing half tomato. Call in 15 very small potatoes, or larger potatoes cut into IS small balls. Arrange these in dignified order around the elevated tomatoes. Melt table spoon butter and sprinkle it over this gay party and season lightly with salt and pepper. One more touch of color--2-3 cup pineapple juice added to the utility dish-and into the oven for a hot time. The heat must be moderate and the baking last one hour.
 Then Garnish with Peppers
 When the chops are done, gar- nish them with strips of green pepper and hasten them to the table, brilliant, tender, and full of surprise. !
 Pork chops pumped up with a vegetable stuf1ng well, read on and see how they taste. Get 6 rib pork chops about l inch thick. Tell the butcher you want to stuff them and he will make a cut through the center of each chop. Insert the filling in this pocket"

If the doubts of the male mem bers of the family or perhaps your own fears that the mode is ], high-styled to last even 8 few weeks have kept you from buying a new fall bonnet, hesitate no more. Smart New York society fomen are wearing those intriguingly novel creations you've been eyeing en- viously. They may get modulated versions later, but, right now, their hats look like the answer to mill lionaire's dream.
 At the races, polo matches and horse shows, women with names that mean something in society ap- pear in high, peaked hats that look like dunce caps. They wear suave little felts, finished with birds and feather fancies. They've gone back to shovel brims, flower pom-pomS perched at the peak, turban and tricorns with huge bows here and there. Indeed, the idea in hat fashions these days seems to be "I'd rather look smart than pretty" The fashion band wagon is piled high with bonnets that men think are silly. You might as well get on, and let them think what they will.

 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
 Never Mind the Temperature
 Can a nervous condition cause fever? How high can body temper ature be Beverage daily temperature) without becoming cause for con- cern? (Miss A. D. G.)
 AnSwer-I advise you not to con- cern yourself about body tempera- ture. Leave that to your physicians judgment. As a rule fever is a fa- vorable reaction, not a bad sign. If you feel feverish, tell your doctor clinical thermometers on your own. It only worries you and abstracts your attention from seeking proper treatment for what ails you, if any, thing.
 Soya Bean Contains Starch
 Please tell me whether soya bean bread contains starch. Have high blood pressure and doctors say not to eat starch of any kind and must not eat bread. Friends advise soya bean bread is free of starch :. (Mrs. L. s. A.)
 AnSwer-I think you are in error in assuming that one with high blood pressure should not eat starch. Soya bean bread contains nearly as much starch as ordinary wheat flour bread contains: soya bean flour contains more fat and more protein than wheat flour. High blood pres sure is not disease, but only sign, and not necessarily sign of any disease. It is the height of folly to monkey with it as you are doing. If your health or life is worth any thing to you, why not stop the non- sense and consult a physician
 Keep Your Hair On
 I have good deal of greasy dand- ruff and also notice my hair falls out. I am 34 years old. Am I doomed to be bald soon? <. i. GA. T. S)
 AnSwer-Send stamped envelope bearing your address and ask for monograph on Care of the Hair".
 Dope
 A while ago you, had an instruc- tive article about the destructive effects of certain medicines urged up0n the laity as harmless. learn ed good deal from that article and decided to be more careful what I use in future. Please tell me whe- ther- iiigitalis and ephedrine with amytal are harmful or not. GA. B.)
 Answer - Epherdrine is compar- atively safe, but no one should take digitalis or amytal except under careful supervision of his physician. Copyright, 1886. John E. Dille Co.)

Paris Styles
By MARY FENTREss

United Press Staff C0rrespondent)
 Paris = (U.P0 - Muffs will be carried all day and all night this winter. Some of them are tiny little affairs, useless but decorative, while others are large and practical and scerve as a handbag as well as nun.
 Furs of every variety are used for new muffs, with the expensive er- mine, mink and chinchilla. Velvet muffs, trimmed with silver fox, are made to accompany dressy velvet afternoon coats trimmed with the same fur.
 For street wear, muffs of flat or short haired fur are shown. Many of the sports or street costumes are trimmed with astrakhan or with Persian lamb. The fur is used for board revers, wide cuffs. a nun and usually for 8 tai fur hat of Rus sian inspiration. Most of this years hats, if not entirely of fur, are ra- ther top heavy with fur trimming. Tall flower pot crowns are topped by silver fox tails or blohs of hat- haired fur. One house trims conical, tall felt hats with the entire head of a fox. The fox head, with ears cooked rakishly, is perched over the right eye. Similarly, the fox head trims the fur trimmed muffs that matches.
 Evening muffs can be dainty af- fairs of ermine or other costly furs or can be of transparent starched chiffon trimmed with pastel shaded floyers. Velvet violets and green velvet leaves make one afternoon nun, while transparent cellophane makes one for evening. The material really doesn't matter just SO long as a muff is carried.
