SHAWLS are becoming almost as
as wraps only to find some interest-
ing way to utilize them as decora—
tlons tor their houses.
If you have some antique shawl
that you do not want to out up to
make into a wrap then by all menus
use it as n decoration. The proper
way is to have it thrown gracefully

. FRIED CARROTS are delicious.
; To make them scrub the carrots and
boil them with the skins on. When
quite tender. take from fire and
drain and when somewhat cooled re-
move skins. which will come off
easily. if the carrots are small cut
lengthwise in two. If large they
should be cut into three or four
lengthwise strips. Melt butter in
frying pan and fry—that is saute—
to a golden brown. and serve very
hot.
For the meat on Monday. slice the
LEFT-OVER ROAST BEEF into
fairly thick slices. Have the broiler
good and hot and broil the slices
quickly. first on one side and then
on the other. ‘
To make the [TAIJAN SPA-
GHETTI for Tuesday luncheon. you
should first boil the spaghetti in
slightly salted water. While‘ it is
cooking put some olive oil—or butter
if'you prefer—in a frying pan with
two or three cloves of garlic and
fry. Have ready some Italian to-
mato pasts which you can buy in a
can at any ltslian food store. Use
equal parts of the paste and water

like Italan cookery put up their
own tomato paste. every autumn
when tomatoes are plentiful. it is
much easier to make any sort of
tomato sauce from the paste than
from canned tomatoes.
For the CLEAR TOMATO SOUP
for dinncr~yon may make the stock
by simmering all the left-over pieces
from Sunday‘s roast. Add a little
extract if needed and then strained
canned tomato. Season well before
serving.
For Tuesday's dinner get a LEG
0F MUTTON or LAMB. Boil it
slowly for several hours until It is
thoroughly tender. Drain off the
liquor and save. In the meantime
make a thin white sauce—using
some of the mutton stock instead of
water if you like—end add pickled
capers. Serve in a gravy boat and
pass with the meat. Meantime you
should hava quite a good dost of
mutton stock left over. Have some
of this to make gravy to serve with
the cold sliced boiled mutton Wed-
nesday and some to make the MUT-
TON SOUP for Wednesdsy luncheon.
For Wednesday dinner you may
have canned corn'and what is left
over save to use to make the seal-
loped canned corn for Thursday

AT RECENT WEDDINGS
Long white sticks—as long as Bo

bridesmaids at a smart wedding this
winter. You might think that these

with ballooning skirts and closely-
fltted hodlccs. But on the contrary
the bridesmaids were dressed in very
'short skirts with simple little frocks
in Jumper style.
The bridal costume does not seem
to be compels the winter without
some sort of cost or caps to wear
over the wedding gown. One of the
season‘s most distinguished brides
wore a white velvet cost with ermine
collars and cuffs over her wedding
gown as she went from her home to
the church where the ceremony was
performed. This cost was slipped
off when the bride reached the
church and slipped on again before
the bride left the church after the
ceremony.
At a fashionable wedding recently
the bridesmaids' gowns were of
wineared taffeta silk. with psnniers
of cherry red taffeta. They wore
ncke bonnets of ruby red velvet.
Th‘s was a daring but entirely
charming color scheme.

i'l‘hey prefer those of stout wood or

ber of children avoid mechanical
toys because they so quickly get out
of order and because so often an
adult is required to run them. They
want something simple. and substan-
tial that they can push about or
draw about themselves.
Recently managers of toy depart-
ments in the large department stores
have given some thought to this
question of selecting the right toy—
ths toy that the child w.ll like. Be-
cause after all there is nothing that
II more gratifying to the adult who
buys the toy than to learn later that
the toy chosen has become sfavorite.
One expert in this matter of selling
toys gives this suggestion to those
seeking toys for "babies under two."
She suggests bright colored bails.
rattles and rubber dolls.
From our own experience it seems
as if the‘most important qualifica-
tion for toys for these sub toddlers
is that they should be absolutely
“suck-proof." if the toys are bright
colored the colors must be absolutely
fast. A lovely doll with bright
cheeks was given to one eager little
one-year-old. Not only did she
manage to lick the color off those
cheeks but before many days had
passed she was actually sucking off
the cheeks themselves. Dolls for
these very little children should

may have noticed. Some children

icics—fnsIcned to a flat board with
small rollers so that the animal can
the draggcd along by means of a
string. Some children may like
those very much. but our experience
has been that the children do not
like those animals very much until
they have been able to get the board
off. They want animals that they
can carry about. snuggle. dress up in
doll clothes and even take to bed
with them.
And they like dolls and soft ani—

THE COLLARLFSS COAT
Now that frocks emnetimes curry
such elaborate collars there are costs
made without collars to go with
those much-collared frocks. Jenny
recently showed coats of this sort.
Another device of Jenny is to line
conis with two-colored linings. A
jumper frock, for instance. with
beige Jumper over a blue skirt would
have 3 cont lined with beige Just as
