This type of sport frock. with tho

with high favor at warm resorts
whore Northern 'Am'erlcans go to
avoid the winters rigors. Some-
times it is made of linen» and some-
time: of silk. Stripes of the sort

THE shirt waist frock looks like
with too expansive hips. for it is
necessarily straight and scant andis
smartest when rather short.
Though the very straight frock
and the frock bereft of fullness at
the back was originated in Franco
and was worn there for some
months before any but the most
venturesome of American women
adopted it. the {act is that American
ilressmakers more often err by mak-
ing their frocks too scant across the
luck than do those of France. And
even now comes the rumor from
Paris that frocks are going to have
more fullness at the back. at least
enough so as to make walking a
little more graceful than it has been
recently. But there seems to be not
the slightest tendency to make them
longer or apparently much fuller.
Rolled or "scotchod" stockings. X

lent abroad than here—and this for
the simple reason that skirts are so
short there.

that the poor one doesn't

Italy speaks of a dish of hot ham

of the most delicious of the dishes
served to her while abroad. That
well-made puree gave the ham dis-
tinction.
Here are suggestions for other
ways of giving meat d'stinction by
the vegetables with which they are
served.
Fillets of beef or beefsteak served
with baked plain or stuffed tomatoes.
The tomatoes should be served on
the platter wih the beef.

GREAT many people have
asked me whether the new
portable radio sets that are
appearing now in such numbers are
as good as the regular non-portable
sets. .
The answer dopontb upon what
you;want thosotto do. For dis-
tance work. for experimentation of
any kind. for the study of radio
science tho portable sets are not so
good. For such purposes as those
you want a storage battery. a gell-
mounted immovable receiver and a
good outdoor antsnna.
But for local concerto—by local I
mean within 100 miles in the sum-
mer and about too miles in tho
winter—the portable sets ato.ilrst
class. If you want radio mainly
for 'cntortainmont and if several
good broadcasters are soar you. 1
advise the portable sot ovary unto.
The great Mb radio station
at the Eiffel Tower was sending
some special short-wave signals last
June in an attempt to roach
America. On Juno :1 and two
days later. Juno 28. the transmis-
sions were on so mu. On Juno
24. 27. 28 and so "tho wavelength
was 25 motors.
Tho~mattor sent was the letters
f and h in Morse code. togothor with
the call letters of the station (FL).
The sending began at midnight on
the morning of Juno 21 and 1!
(Eastern Standard Time). There
was a second‘ transmission between
10:00 and 10:35 a. m.. and a third
between 4:00 and 4:85 p. m. Theso
hours were the same on all days of
the tests.
American listeners able to road
code and who picked up any of these
signals should notify tho Eiffel
Tower Station. giving full details.
Or. if you like. let mo know about
it and I will see that the news is
passed along to Captain Borgoron.
tho Commandant of the Station.
Ono of the things to look for if
your sot suddenly s'ops working is
a broken wiro inside the phone
cords. This wire is a thin flexible
cablo. Sometimes it breaks and
pulls apart without tho trouble being
evident on the outside of the cords.
That makes the set go quite dead.

of Your 8st are put thoroso that
youcsn varytho adjustmontoftho
difloront inmts lnsido it. Those
are two main reasons for doing this:
first. to tune the set. and second. to
control the loudness of the signal in
tho head phonos or the loudspeaker.
For the tuning. what you do. in
general is to vary one or more of
the three things that we have dis.
cussed in the last few instalmonts
of tho Primer: the inductance. the
Capacity or tho Coupling.
Ono of tho knobs on your sot may
work a condenser. That knob alters
the capacity. Another knob may
work a coil. or you may have for
this. in place of a knob. a switch
with a number of points on it. This
cuts more or loss of the wire on a
coil out of use. It varies the in-
duciancs.
Another knob may vary the posi-
tion of an instrument called a vari-
couplor. That alters (usually) both
the coupling and tho inductance.
it is not necessary. of course. to
have all three knobs. Barns sets
have only one knob. It is possible
to build sets that have no knobs at
all. On the other hand. some sets
may have ton or oven twenty knobs.

ment or other device that an be

But. in tho main. all knobs have

'dutios: tuning or the variauon d
the strength of the signal.
WHY NOT BREAD SAUCE?

And as every one knows most all
English people do liko it while with
Amer-cans visiting in England it is
usually Just about “fifty-fifty."
Some would-be opicurcs condemn it
violently—doubtless because it is not
included in the list of some hundred
or so sauces that the French cook
likes to make. it is distinctly Brit-
ish. The English cook uses it where
the French cook would use a white
sauce. adding various seasonings to
it to suit the occasion.
Broad sauco is frequently served
in England with chicken whereas
we, of course. would almost invar-
iably sorvo "gravy." “'o Americans.

Marc Tolford. Now you accept that
nomination—and you win the elec-
tion. Rsmombor. you are playing
for two things—your election and
my hand."
Now what could Marc do? All
his friends told him not to touch
the nomination—that he would only
be put up to be knocked down-
that an understanding had already
been arrived at between the leaders
of tho two parties that no real op-
position should bo made to tho ro-
oloction of the old warhorse who at
present filled the scat ho was to be
nominated for. Marc. himself. hated
politics. But his Lilly had spoken—
snd that settled it. If he must win
a seat in that more or loss “august
body" in order to win Lilly—why
win a seat ho would—or try to at
least. Ho accordingly accepted the
nomination and plunged into the
MW!“-
Tho old stagors among the poll-
ticians laughed at first. Thou thoy
began to worry. This energetic
young man was upsetting all their
nicely arranged plans. The boss of
tho party which had nominatod
Marc was met by the boss of tho
othor party with a scowling face.
"Soo here." said the scowling boos.
“aren't you going to stick to our
agreement? That follow Tolford is
raising the very douco and all.“
“I can‘t help it.” replied the other
boss. “I didn't know it was loaded.”
"You know you can't elect him.”
growled boss number one.
“Oh. I don't know.” replied boss
number two—and he began to won-
dor if it mkht not be possible. after
all.
Lilly did her part and wont around
drumming up woman votes for her
beloved. She learned things about
politics which made her eyes stick
out: but she persevered. And every
once in a while she would say to
Marc: "Roxnornbor what you are
playing for—don't forget that a wife
as well as the beginning of a groat
career hangs upon the results of the
election [or you." Forget? How
could he forgot? He never worked
so hard or worried so much in all
his life. He thought at times that
Lilly was unreasonable—cruel—to
attach' such conditions to her con-
sent to be his wife. But she was
Lilly—and that made up for every-
thing.
Now Lilly had a brother. Richard.
who was very much in love with
Minerva—commonly called Minnie——
daughter of that same political war-
h;.;o whose seat in the legislature
Marc Tolford coveted—coveted as a
means. not an and. Minnie was a
