much more effectivezy. A very charm-

leading dress houses. achieves the
bustle eflect. by tying the back of the
model into a bow over the gathered
flounces beneath. The frock itself is
in printed crepe and shows the popu-

sleeves.

Pleated skirts have worn out their

are pleated. But on these new cre-

These panels. which invariably are

Salads Are Refreshing
By mm E. SEAPLEIGE
0! mm Univudty
"To remember a good dinner is to
remember a good salad." some one has
said. '
“'hat are the qualities which go to
the making of such a. salad? One
rule is that all .the salad plants or
vegetables used must be crisp. fresh
and cold. -
For a dinner salad a French dress-
ing should be used. never a. mayon-
naise. unless it.be a simple dinner
and the salad is to be served as a
separate course. A salad of cucum-
bers. tomatoes or p n lettuce is
much more appetizing it served with
the meat or fish.
Probably all salads depend more on
the seasonings than on anything obs.
Three measures of oil and one mea-
sure of vinegar or lemon Juice is a
good proportion for the average taste.
For seasonings. salt. pepper. mustard;
paprika. sugar and a little onion if
the dressing is to be used on vege-
tables or plain salad plants. A clove
or bean of garlic left in the dressing
for several hours and removed before
the dressing is served gives a flavor
much to be desired.‘
For fruit salads omit the onion and
mustard. Very good combinations of
fruit and vegetables may be made.
such as tomatoes and pineapple. pep-
per's and grapefruit. celery and ap—
ple. peaches and beets.
Sandwiches are rapidly growing in
favor for lunch or supper. and are
made sufliciently hearty to serve as a
main course. A meat sandwich and
a vegetable salad. with a sweet or
some fruit for desert. make a satis-
factory meal.
Slices of cheese. cold chicken. ham
or pork may be the filling. Then
toast. the sandwiches quickly and
serve on a plate filth pickles. olives
or a lettuce. tomato or cucumber
salad.
COMBINATIONS.
cold tongue and sliced tomatoes. cold
pork and sliced onions. all make ex-
cellent sandwiches.
The chopped cabbage may be mixed
with mayonnaise or cooked dre-ing
and the tomatoes dipped in French
dreslng. f! one does not care for the
mayonnaise.
Instead of toasting the sandwich.
occasionally fry it in butter. jut
enough to give a golden brown color.
For “hikers." a sandwich made of
cold baked beans. mashed and season-
ed with ketchup or chili sauce. with
sliced pickles. between buttered brown
bread slices. is one which will "stand
by."

I am going to tell you a secret, my

I have sometimes thought that then.
people who are particularly unselfish
and who give in to the wants and de-
sires and prejudices of some one who
is narrow minded. eeliish and preju-

stand which would be better not only
for themselves but for the person
