RHINESTONES MUCH IN FAVOR Really There Is No More Effective Trimming for the Smart Afternoon or Evening Dress. Rhinestone trimmings are promi nent for evening wear, especially in tho simple outlining form suitablo for edging tunics, necks, sleeves and edg ing elaborato scarfs of chiffon or moussollne. Rhinestones in combina tion with jet are formed into liand Bomo floral and scroll effects. nhlne stoiie and pearl slides and ornaments are used for catching up draperies. Narrow Chiffon pink rosebud trim mings contlnuo to bo fashionable. Fur bands in skunk, mole, fox, ermine and sable continue to be much used for trimmings. Fur Is often used in com bination with metal with excellent effect. An elaborato ovenlng wrap or gown may be trimmod with a light weight metal band outlined with a nar row strip of fur. DRESSING GOWN r This is an excellent gown for win ter wear, as it fastens quite up to tho throat. -- It is cut Magyar with long sleeves and ft trimmed with fancy galloon, A woolen glrdlo draws the fullness in at tho waist. Materials required: threo and ono fourth yards 51 inches wide; two and three-fourths yards of galloon. Perfume Bags for Clothing. Cloves, nutmegs, mace, caraway seeds, cinnamon and Tangulne leaves, each one-halt ounce. Florentine orris root, three ounces. Have all ground to a powder well mixed nnd put up in small bags to placo among cloth ing. This not only gives tho cloth ing a fine perfume, but is a protection against moths. Get Rugs First. A specialist on tho subject of rugs says that In furnlshng a room the rug fahould be chosen first. Then the dec orations should be decided upon, that they may above all things bo In har mony with tho rug, Walls toned to harmonize with rugs aro better than those nauered. - 41?' 9 b iffp SMALL COATS OF BROCADE One of the Prcttle3t of the Winter Fashions, With Trimmings of Odds and Ends of Fur. Tho winter fashions are .getting moro and moro alluring, and very pleasing aro the little coats of brocado with their cutaway fronts and high wayman cuffs. These coats, like oth ers of tho swallow-tailed and banded descriptions, display an edging or trimming of fur, skunk, apparently, be ing first favorite. Many of us have been hoarding short lengths of broche velvet or satin, and rejoice that tho present vogue gives us an opportunity to utilizing them. If the length be not quito Bufllclent for a blouseu-we aro permitted to call into service a plain satin for Us successful completion, as a combination of plain and fancy fab rics is a faslonablo allianco this sea son. Dry velours is carrying all before it, and In tho finest quality is an ideal fabric for princess tailored robes as well as for coats and skirts. Tho more severe tho design tho moro suc cessful is the result, as one's fura supply tho requisite trimming. Old Rose Moire Gown. Moire silk is particularly handsomo, and has practically all tho good quali ties of broadtail without its perisha bility. A smart coat and skirt in old rose moire has a high Napoleonic double collar, and rovers of satin in tho same shade, closely covered with rattall embroidery. Tho coat is of a long shape, with a slightly high waist, and longer at tho back than in tho front. It is fastened by silk cording and buttons arranged In corselet fash ion and a high collar and Jabot of laco aro arranged on a white lawn founda tion to form the vest. Cuff Reinforced. How many of us have discovered that, when our tailored waUts como back from tho laundry tho third tlmo tho cuffs show signs of wear? Ab many of mino aro bought ready-mado, thero is no material for new cuffs. Now, whon I buy a new waist I go over tho edges of the cuffs with a tiny overhand stitch that is almost Invisible, writes a contributor to Good Housekeeping. Tho cuffs then wear as long as tho waist does. New Handbags. Handbags aro seen in a variety of form. Tho newest Is tho long doublo sack bag, passed through a ring to wear over tho fingers or sufllcontly largo to wear as a bracelet. These bags aro embroidered in Bteel or dull beads on colored velvet or moire, to match tho gown worn. Smart Coats. Talored suits have Bmart cutaway' coats or long Russian blouse coats. The collars aro high and straight. Tho straight band of fur used as a collar and finished with a bow or ribbon at tho side or Just beneath the coiffure' at the back is very smart. Fringed Mesh Bags. Now metal mesh bags are Been with beaded fringe, and with frames partly engine-turned and partly chased In design. Tho fish scalo mesh bag is more recent than tho link meah pos sibly for tho reason that it has the Jjeputation of durability.

FONDANT, THE FOUNDATION FOR FRENCH CANDIES. At this season of tho year, when tho children aro allowed unusual Indul gence In sweets, it is vital that thoy bo provided with the purest. Tho fondant may bo combined with Trults, coloring, nuts and flavors, which will make n sufficiently nllurlng variety to satisfy even the youngcrJovcrs of sweetmeats. To proparo the fondant, use a pint of sugar and a cup of water; stir un til tho sugar is dissolved, and boll un til a drop, when tried In cold water, will mako a soft, waxy ball. Do not stir during tho boiling. Pour out on a buttered platter or marble slab to cool, and work with wooden spoons until creamy. Some add a spoonful of glucose to tho mixture before cool ing, or a half teaspoonful of cream of tartar, to keep the sugar from graining. A good candy maker keens tho sides of tho kettle in which tho mix ture Is boiling washed down with a small cloth wound on a stick dipped .In water. Tho presonco of grains In the sirup Is fatal to good candy, for a few form tho nucleus around which tho candy will grain and spread through tho ontlro mass. Whon the fondant Is made It may bo kept for weeks If carefully cov ered with a waxed paper. Tako a small portion, mix with nuts and flavoring, mold Into balls, deco rato with halves of nuts or roll around pieces of preserved pineapple. Tho softer tho fondant Is for choc olate croamB tho better. It is possi ble to have the centers almost a liquid. Preparo tho fondant, boil ing it to a very soft, waxy ball Btage, Btlr. and allow It to freeze. Then bring in just a llttlo at a time, quick ly mold into balls and put out to freeze again. -Dip them In melted chocolate, a few at a time, and if carefully made, thoy will equal tho finest of professionally mado creams. Bon bonB aro made by preparing any desired mixture in balls of fond ant, then dipping them In some of tho fondant, flavored and colored, if desired. Melt tho fondant for dlppli.g in a small double boiler or a small sauce pan set in boiling water. HI WHAT would tho world bo to us If tho children were no more? Wo would dread tho desert behind us worso than the dark before. WHAT CHILDREN SHOULD EAT. From birth to tho ago of nine monthB milk 1b thovonly food of tho child. After nine months gruels made from cereals, milk and gclatino may be given. At the ago of one year milk, gruel prepared from cereals and broths from chicken and mutton.

This 1b tho tlmo to cultivate a taste for all wholesome foods, though not many kinds should bo eaten at tho Bumo time. During the agei of eleven to four teen, tho amount of food varies for girls and boys. Girls need about a sixth less food than a boy of same age.. Roys at this age are excessive ly fond of meat; thoy" must not over eat. Girls aro likely to under eat. Roth boys and girls must have food enough to supply growth and tho dally needs.

Tho eating utensils used by a pa tient, or indeed anything olso which ho uses or handles during sickness, mny become a Monaco, ns thoy aro enslly contaminated with Infectious material. It goes without Baying that a dlph thcrln patient who has tho bacilli In his mouth, will contnmlnnto spoons, forks and cups which ho uses, with tho bacteria which uro working In his throat. This 1b truo of all contagious disease, to a less oxtent, consequent ly too much care cannot bo takdn of" everything that tho patient handlos, and all should bo regarded with sus picion and trcnted accordingly. Points to Insist upon: Allow no ono to use or handlo any of tho eat ing utensils which the patient hus had during his illness. After ills recovery, put them In boil ing water nnd allow them to stand several minutes or an hour. Rolling wnter, not simply hot water, will Bter illzo utensils If thoy aro allowed to boil 'flvo or six minutes. Tho best protection against conta gion is robust health. Ono who Is strong and vigorous Is much loss Ha bio to yield to dlscaso than ono loss robust. Wholesome food, exorclso nnd fresh air aro essentlal In com bating disease. An active body is far less llablo to dlscaso than an inactive one that has llttlo outdoor exercise. Tho need of fresh nlr, day and night, is ono of tho most important actors in maintaining health. Tho belief that night nlr is dangerous Is responBlblo for much 111 health. Night air Is nil wo have to breath at night.
