Eggplant Pickle.
.. En‘ggplants can be made into very
fine sweet or sour pickles Peel the
minute and cut them in large slices
or cubes. Into a large porcelain \es-
eel put alternate layers of eggplant
bud salt. Let stand three hours or
more. Then lightly squeeze out the
dark fluid that has been drawn out by
the‘salt.’ and wash in several waters
V» Boil a minute or two and drain
' through a sieve. I
j Take vinegar in proportion to egg-
' plants used—one pint to each egg-

' to’ taste. Put from two to four ta-
bleapoonfuls of powdered cinnamon
into the vinegar. and a tablespoonful
' .0! three mixed spices, which may be
bought at a grocery for 10 cents a
stX, tied in a piece of Cheesecloth.
» When the vinegar is heated put in the
eggplants and boil until tender. Take
the pickle up carefully and put it into
:iars.
‘ .For sour pickle use the
amount of vinegar and 'spices, but
leave. out the sugar. If lighter-color?
' , ed pickle is preferred use white sug-

DRESSING WELL. ~
Fine Fabrics In New Gowns.
Never before have there been so
many beautiful fabrics used and com-
bined in such a variety of attractive
ways, says a New York Tribune fash-
ion writer. Beautiful velvets and
,plushes. brocades. cloths of gold and
'silver, peau de souris, wonderful met-l
al meshes that shimmer delicately,’
and the silver and old embroidered
laces that show a high degree of ar-
tistic care and thought, are used in
the garments of the coming seasons.
Very odd, and equally effective, was
the black charmeuse run with queer
uneven little velvet stripes, used in
a suit which typifies the beautiful ef-
fects that can be attained by a Judi-
cious and artistic combination of
materials. The coat, fairly short in
front and rounding to a deeper length
‘ in the back, had a gold lace ruffle fall.
ing over the sku‘nk band, and the two
velvet-striped collars which were
found only in the back. From under
a band of fur at the wrists fell a full
ruffle of the velvet. while battens——
ubiquitous this year~niarked the gen.:
erous shining at the waistline.
{Prettiest of all was the flower~like
skirt. It was of charmeuse from the
shirred waistline to midway below the.
knees, where the velvet chalice-shaped
ruffle appeared. Two or three inCh-
es-farthcr down the ruffle was caught
' in by an elastic and then allowed to,
widen out again over the ankles.
The flower effect was again seen in!
a cerise velvet and satin evening
gown. Three deep rows of petals in
satin and a top velvet row formed the
skirt. A satin row of petals and onei
of velvet formed the waist, which‘
had a bit of white c'hiffon to outline
the throat as the only dissenting col-l
or. The wide velvet girdle was trim-l
med at one side with a large satin
rose of the same color, two festoons
of smaller roses falling from the large
flow er.
in direct contrast to the gowns dis-
played are the hats. which show very
little trimming. Very. popular is the
model which has variously been term-
tight fitting, it has unexpected little
points and corners, and lots off at
queer, surprisinggind pleasing angles-
hese hats are worn rakislHY. at
.times having a pompon standing out
'precariously from the uppermost and
outside corner of the hat. One petrol-
colored hat was edged with an inch
wide metal band. and perched in "a
little hollow of'the vertical brim was
a small metal bird.

The suit which this but
sighed to accompany is of the same
rich-colored broaddoth. but not of the,
same simplicity. it seems simple,
however, when compared with the
elaborate suits shown this season. The
blous bodice of the coat closes to
the thrust in a straight line from the
waist. Below the waist it is cut away
in front and long in back. Encircling
the waist are two narrow strap‘like
girdles. ending in back in two little
flat tailored bows. carrying out the
idea of the hat. A high-standing col-
lar of chinchilla squirrel is slightly
ported in front and bears a rather
striking lot of flowers at the side. For

My Quotations
“a“
The outbreak of the. European War
has caused the New York price of tin
to rise to 65 cents a pound, although
in the latter part of July tin was sold
Ian low as 30.5 cents a pound. None
of the European countries make a.
production which would greatly af-
,feot market values. and the disturb-
' remedies ayear and lance of price is fine mostly to the in-
security ot ocean freights which are
carried very largely in English or
German bottoms.
The .known‘ American tin deposits
are small. and reduction from them
will probably no be much affected by
the exceedingly high prices if these
are temporary. However, the Opera—
tors now working tin" deposits may
reap a profit if they can market their
ores before the drop in prices that is
sure to come.
Should Establish Smelter.
The benellt that it seems possible
to get out of the present situation is
in the establishment of a tin smelter
in the United States in which to
smelt Bolivian tin ores and such small
. lots of American are as are produced.
At present between 30,000 and 40,000
ton of tin concentrates carrying
more than 20,000 tpns of metallic tin
are shipped each year from Bolivia to
