We've come to expect strange
things from milliners. We've even
got used to seeing fresh flowers
decorating the prisms of chande-
lier in q designers salon. We've
reached the stage where we'll ac-
cept Walter Florells change from
curly blond locks to black, long
straight hair. The opportunity to
chat with him at the Millinery
Fashion Bureaus breakfast at the
Commodore was denied us. How
ever, we did glimpse the new hairdo
The news is that the majority of
hat collections show an abundance
of the kind of hats men like. These
are not cutie" hats, but hats de-
signed for sincere compliments and
not smokers.
Exception to the rule was MR..
JOHN, whose hats we simply
couldn't see-not because we weren't
looking, but because all the showing
amounted to was what is termed in
millinery circles as a gag" collec-
ton. My only comment, in fairness
to Mr.. John, is that I have heard
the New York press people had
seen display that couldn't possibly
have been the one presented to us.
The hats shown to the fashion edi-

about through the great use of bon
nets of all sizes, silhouettes and
price tags. Particularly effective
are the Amish bonnets seen at JOHN
FREDERIC'S. (Mr. Fred retains
the name while Mr.. John, formerly
his partner, has his salon on Fifty
seventh street, This collection at
John Frederic's is about the most
breath-taking group of hats seen in
New York. The big hat that will
grace the street scene is very well
done at this establishment. A large
bicorne, with sweep headed to-
ward the skies, is done in pale
straws, and also in sheer blacks.
For those not daring enough to
wear this hat with Widespread of
"a inches, there's also a smaller
version.
WALTER FLORELL is another
milliner who has produced an excel
lent collection. Picture hats have
never been done so beautifully. He
has taken French polka dot Malines,
covered the hat frame with layers
of it. and trimmed the concoction
with roses. It's really a creation.
Apollo turbans that cover the hair,
and flower turbans designed to re-
semble the curls on many sculp-
tured head are exquisitely fashioned
of flowers.

have obtained many needed ar
ticles there from time to time.
I wonder if Mrs. E. H. P. has tried
the coconut macaroon mix which
is sold by chain market? haven't
vet used it, but understand it makes
delicious macaroons. The recipe is
on the can and makes about so
macaroons.
An excellent casserole dish recipe
which I found in the American
Weekly about five years ago has
been requested a number of times
by friends. I type four or five copies
at time and am all prepared when
a request is received. 1t is grand
for serving crowd, and can be used
as well in hot weather as in cold
1t makes quite lot and can be
halved If desired. 1t is said to be
an old California favorite.
Talarini: One Glove garlic, l onion,
large; / bell pepper, or 3 table
spoons olive oil, l package medium
width noodles, can tomatoes, me-
dium; can corn, large; l pound
ground beef or hamburger, u pound
American cheese, grated; l can ripe
olives, medium. Mince and fry
garlic, onion and bell pepper in
olive oil until tender, using olive
oil as necessary to prevent burning.
Add tomatoes and cook 10 minutes.
At the same time boil noodles until
tender and fry hamburger until it
forms in Jumps. Season all to taste.
Pour all into baking dish and add
corn and olives, including liquor on
olives. Crate cheese and stir all to-
gether. leaving enough cheese to
sprinkle over top. Add dash Of
cayenne and about IL tablespoons
olive oil. Bake slowly one hour.
We like onions and green pep
pers, and I usually add more than
called for. During the war, when
olive oil could not be obtained, I
used the grease from the ground
beef The olives can be omitted,
also garlic, If desired, and the taste
is not spoiled. 1t is truly a most
delightful recipe.
wonder II the stain can be re-
moved from the inside of my percO-
lator? I mistakenly boiled borax
instead of soda in it, which seems
to have set the stain. I tried soda
later, but to no avail.

To q public disgruntled over the

time being, a local store offers the

ways so suggestive of tranquility to

Six or eight different numbers

members of the trio and those two

mark are available now, too. Run
ming true to the tale that is often
told with just such hit, these num-
bers were recorded some time ago,
before the tune that made the
group famous was waxed. Among
these are "I Know That You Know"

Today I give you the answers to
another question asked during the
question period at the end Of one
of my lectures.
II must lose some weight, but I

calories all the time. I do this for
while and then am away from
my chart and do not know the cal
oric value of things I eat and the
whole thing gets messed up. like
budget when you fail to take your
check book with you. Is there some
other way, some simple rules I
could follow without counting CAL
ories all the time?
Yes, there are few simple rules,
and while not so acurate as careful
calorie counting, they will work, If
you stick by them faithfully.
/. Push yourself away from the
table long before you feel stuffed
Take a moderate helping of every
thing and no seconds. BY every
thing mean vegetables which are
not fried or creamed, and lean meat
(not fat meat), and eggs which
are not fried or creamed, a potato
which is baked rather than cooked
any other way, salads without
dressing, or a very small amount
of dressing. Stop eating while you
feel that you could enjoy q little
more!
2. You had best forget hot breads
and rolls for the time being. Make
yours whole wheat, with very little
butter.
8. Forget desserts for a while. Eat
fresh fruit instead.
4. Leave off all candy, nuts,
cream, Jelly, cream sauces. soda
fountain mixtures, gravy, fat meat
in fact, leave off the trimmings.
You can lose slowly on this routine
and still use a little butter and
salad dressing, but very little.
S. Cut down on the amount of |
salt you use.
6. Do not eat between meals.

CABLE STITCH?

From B. S. M, Arlington Farnls.)
In 1917-18 my cousin and I, to-
gether with friends learned an
embroidery stitch which was called
the cable stitch" at that time. 1t
was worked in a chain-like with
rather heavy thread, which gave it
more or less the look Of braiding. 1t
was very pretty on tablecloths, cen
terpieces, etc, also blouses. The
dogwood pattern worked up beauti-
fully in this particular stitch. Now
we have both forgotten how to do
this stitch and We have been unable
to find any one who knows anything
about 1t or a magazine that can give
us information on it. My cousin
does beautiful work of all kinds and
she is very anxious now to do this
cable stitch again.

about knitting ribbon and were quite
insulting. I have now purchased

so 1t will turn out like the expensive
