Something to Think About

The Tongue of Wisdom

 

 

WALKER

You will be better for the associa-
tion. sweeter of sposition. more
charitable. Kindly and humane. You
will h.'e found without suspecting
it the precious key tut. unlocks the

lOVable and beautiful things meant
for your inspiration, encouragement
and content.

The world will come to you each
,morning in a new. pleasing dress.

So will your 'friends, aspirations
and desires to do good.

You will get in closer touch with
the divine, be stronger in faith and
march on light-hearted through your
life-journey down to the end of your
days with a glorious gladness. whose
halo shall shine about your head
with the brightness of the sun.

John and Mary were married yes-
terday, and because they have all
their lives harkefied to the tongue
of wisdom they will build a comely
little cottage. avoid pretention and
live Within their means. They will
have their garden offlowers, plant
trees and shrubs and pay court to
Cupid. They will not gad about
among their neighbors to make and
listen to gossip- for the reason that
they have acquired vhsdom from the

 

wise tongues of their parents. Thus
their happiness; is assured.

Dull Green. Red and Brown Striped
Cloth Fashions One of the Most
Admired Costs in Recent Showing
of Exported Wraps.

AYS the woman who from choice
S or necessity narrowly limits her

dress budget: "I would like a.
top coat that will do for all occa-
sions—a coat suitalfle for afternoon.
that would not be in bad form in the
morning and that could be made to
do for evening."

The tactless saleswoman looks
contempt and the tactful one tries.
not. to look surprised. At best the
outlook is not. hopeful. Once per—
haps it was possible—once when
evening wraps played a less im-
portant role and when only' really
rich women felt justified in possess-
ing resplendent evening wraps.

But whatever the attitude of the
dressmakers and the salespeople
and the minority (Jr-women who can
afford new evening wraps every
fact remains that a
goodly number of women occupying
really enviable social position. wives
of eminent men, and women eminent
on their own account. often find it
necessary to double up on their
wraps if they hope to have anything
left of their dress money for suitable
evening frocks. “'lthout apology
they appear with the same wrap
over an afternoon gown that they
intend to wear over an evening
gown. If they go away for a week
end they take but this one wrap and
it must do general duty for what-
ever otcasions arise. Once the fur
coat was about the best answer to
this question of general utility coat
-—but it is hardly so now,

The sketch shows a cloth coat
that. though rather striking, is none
the less admirably suited for just
this purpose. It was one of the most
admired coats at. a recent exhibition
of imported models. 0f dull green,
red and browu material, it is fin~
ished with large for cuffs and a. col-
lar that “fastened with cords end-
ing in two long tails of fur.

Like so many of the new coats
it is beltless and hangs perfectly
straight. '

Another typeof coat that might
be mentioned as suitable for com-
bination evening and afternoon wear
is the coat of black velvet. usuafiy
finished with a bit of ermine.

The Flat-backed Head is an Essen-
tial to the
Hats.

R since the days of 1806
N has hair been less essential
than now.

0! course one must have some
hair; but much hair one must not
have. ’ -»

"Whereas in 1798 none of the
women possessed as much hair as
they required," says a German cos-
tume writer of the last century. “In
1806 they could scarcely have too
little.” -

One might say the same, substi-
tuting 1913 and 1923 'for the earlier
dates. . .

This- stat of affairs an'ects
even the stout—minded woman who

’ wishes to say: “Let the fashion be

hanged. I’ll wear as much hair as
I please. I will not be bobbed. I‘will

not be shingled. I will not wind my.

hair about my head as an actress
does whdn about to den. a wig."

 
 
 

Style of the New‘

 

You, cannot hang; the fashion so

:flmzzfxmgfmfir-mw—J .

easily. Hats are made to fit the
more frivolous heads that have
been more or less shorn. French
hats that have been sent over here
without being specially designed for
Americans have been entirely too
small , in the head sizes. Many
Americans in Europe this summit:
and autumn have even bought their
hats in London rather than in Paris,
getting English adaptations of the
French hats—because most English
women stilk possess long hair. and
refuse to plaster it down.

But even with a larger head size—
even if you have your milliner make
your hat to order with a head size
as comfortably large as any one
could want—still :the fact remains
and becomes rat or obvious when
you have looked in the mirror that
the new hat fashions were designed
and worked out originally for the
bobbed or shingled head. The ex-
treme flatness in the back of the
head is essential to the style of
practically all the new hats, be they
cloche, the new silk top hat of 1880.
the breton with its round crown Ind
rounded upturned brim. the popular
tam or 'beret. or Lewis's new Dutch
bonnet with car tabs. They all are
flat-backed. ’ '

There is this much consolation
Most women can produce the effect
of a smaller head and a rounder
head merely by leaving or: padding.
putting and rufiing. and the use of
artificial hair. Your back hair may
be brought around and made to roll
under above the ears and it is quite
possible. if your hair is not too
thick, to roll it under at the back
in a way to make it look least con-
spicuous.

preserving them for future use.

ways:

until the paste is done. Cover with

THERE are many delicious ways

Quince Pie.

Quinoes make delicious pie used
the same as apples. only out very
thin slices. Here is one recipe:
Stew quince: and chOp till you have
three cups full; have them good
and sweet. New fill a plate in
which you have put a good crust.
bake. andrwhen almost done frost
with two whites of eggs and sugar;
set back in oven to brown.

Quince Custard.

Rub the fun of: the fro. with a
coarse cloth. Slice the quinces.
saving seeds and cores. and stew
gently in water to cover until very
tender. Strain through a jelly bag.
Measure out a pint of juice. add to
it five ounces of sugar. boil and pour
over the yolks of ten well beaten
eggs while not. stirring all the time.
Pour back into a hot bowl. set his
in a dish of boiling water and stir
over the tire until the custard begins
to thicken. Pour into glasses. chill
and serve.

To Clo Qulnees.

Cut the quinces into thin slices
like apples for pies. To one quart
jarful of quince take I. coffeeaaucer
and a half, of sugar and a coffee-cup
of water; put the sugar and water
on the fire. and when boiling put in
the quinces; have ready the jars
with their fastenings. stand the jars
in a pangof boiling water on the
stove. and when the quince is clear
and tender put rapidly into the jars,
fruit and syrup together. The jars
must be filled so that the syrup
overflows. and fastened up tight as
quickly as possible.

Quince Marmalade.

" Wash the quinces; peel and re-
move all discolored spots; boil the‘
peel in just sufficient water to cover.
until the flavor is extracted: strain
through a thick cloth and when this
juice is nearly cold add the juincos.
cut in quarters and cored. and
enough more water to cook them:

as smooth as possible with a wooden
_spoon; weigh. and add three-quar-
ters of a pound of sugar for a pound
of the fruit. Boll fifteen minutes:
then put. while hot. into smallernolds
or cans. The juice of three oranges
for every three pounds of the mar-
malade is a nice addition.

Quince Preserves.

Do not try to preserve quinces
until they begin to turn yellow. If
frost threatens. gather and lay aside
to ripen. When they are uniformly
yellow have everything in readiness
and "make a morning" of it. utilis-
ing the skins and imperfect fruit
for marmalade or jelly. while you
preserve the finer fruit. In this way
there will be no waste. Rub on the

GOOD WAYS m‘m

Elem-3N can perm. be pre-
pared in more tempting forms
than any other meat. It is

one of the delicacies of the world,
because of this very Mat it
can be made up into such interest-
ing . and sometimes surprising
dishes.

H“! are some of them worth
, , in your cooking repertory.

 

do not wipe. Sprinkle with salt
and pepper. and coat thickly with
flour.)mving as much dour adhere
to chicken as possible. Put one cup
lard into hot frying pan. and when
melted and hot add chicken. a few
pieces at a time (so as not to too
quickly reduce the temperature of
’the fat). and cook slowly. turning
frequently until chicken is tender
and well browned; the time re-
quired being about thirty-live min-
utes. Arrange on a bed of hot
boiled hominy and garnish with
parsley. . Serve with or without
cream sauce.

Blanquette of Chicken

:‘éé cup of stock

1 pint of cooked chicken
Yoiks of two eggs

1 tablespoon of flour .
1 cup of cream

1 tablespoon of butter

Salt and pepper to taste.

The chicken should be out Into
small dice or cubes. and the stock
made with a very little extract so
as to be as light-colored as pos-
sible. Melt the butter, add the
flour, and stir until it is thorough-
ly wellcooked. Add the stock and
the meat. Stir until the sauce
begins to thicken. , Add the cream
and put the blazer over‘ the hot
water pan. Cook until the sauce
is smooth and the chicken heated.
Season. add the yolks beaten light.
stir in the sauce as quickly and
deftly as possible. and serve.

mammal

Cut up the fowls and place in
a kettle with a tight cover. so as
to retain the steam; put about two
teacups of water and plenty of salt
and pepper over the chicken. then
let it cook until the meat cleaves
easily from the bones; cut or chop
all the meat (freed from skin.
bone and gristle) about as for
chicken salad; season well. put
into a dish and pour the remnant
of the juice in which it was cooked
over it. This will jelly when cold.
and can then be sliced or set on
the table in shape. Nice for tea
or lunch. The knack of making
this simple dish is not having too
much water; it will not jellyif
too weak. or if the water is al-
lowed to boil away entirely while
cooking.

 

PICKLED PEPPERS

Double their bulk in cab-
bags.
