This costume was especially fashioned for tho athletic "hockey girl."
The short, warm Jacket, scarf and cap and long gloves, all of tho samo
wool material, Is a distinct novelty for this winter. It serves both for
keeping tho wearer warm and freedom of movement.
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

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.

were no more?

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.
From ono to one and a fourth years,
tho above, with rice, bread and applo
baked or applo sauce.
From no and a fourth to one and a
half, -add bread and butter and ripe
peaches.
At one and a half years add to tho
abovo baked potato and orange juice.
From ono nnd a half to two and a
half, Increase tho variety of similar
foods.
From two and a half to three and a
half, young freBh peas, beans, sqimsh
nnd once or twico a llttlo chlckon,
mutton chop, beefsteak or roast of
beef.
From threo and a half to flvo years,
eggs and meat on alternate days and
light desserts of tapioca, ciiBtard and
gelatine.
From flvo to seven years a greater
variety, holding to tho foods beforo
mentioned.
From soven to eleven, any of tho
earlier foods, but more especially tho
substantial ones. 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

CARE IN CONTAGIOUS DISEASES.
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.
Our sleeping rooms should bo woll
aired each day, and a free circulation
of puro fresh air should bo provided
In oven tho coldest weather.
