Chop Suey Pickles.
One peck of green tomatoes, six
large onions, six large green peppers,
one cabbage. Chop the tomatoes and
cabbage, letting them stand over
night, with two small cups of salt
each. Strain and wash thoroughly
before adding the onions and peppers,
the seeds of which must be removed
or it will be too peppery. Chop onions
and peppers, place all in a preserving
kettle with 5 cents’ worth of each of
the following spices: Cinnamon,
cloves, celery seed, mace and allspice;
two pounds of brown sugar, one quart
of cider vinegar, or more if it gets
too thick. Cook slowly for several
hours.
Velvet and Cloth.
Fancy velvet jacket and cloth skirt,
In black, with vest of white cloth and
lace in sleeves.
Bowknots of Artificial Flowers.
A pretty form of decoration, now
the craze in Paris, is bowknots of arti
ficial flowers on ball gowns. For in
stance, take a gown of white tulle,
with a tiny vest of rosebud silk and
three black velvet bows, above which
are tiny tulle plaitings. A wreath of
rosebuds lies against the neck and
in the center of the front is a huge
bowknot of rosebuds, hanging just as
a ribbon would. Sashes are also made
of flowers, and are dainty and rather
new.
Jam Pudding.
Jam pudding is an improvement on
the plain suet pudding. You make the
suet paste and roll it out twice as long
as wide. Spread it thick with a layer
of jam till within two inches of the
end, roll and tie up in a cloth, and
boil for an hour and a half. If there
is a coarse pattern on the cloth it
marks tfce pudding and looks better
than when plain. Bits of jam, togeth
er with sliced bananas, covered with
plain custard, is an easily prepared
and nice looking dish for luncneon.
Novel Lamp Shades.
Printed nets make charming lamp
shades. The odds and ends ot a new
evening frock may be utilized in man
ufacturing a shade.
One of this sort consisted of black
net, printed with pink and lavender
orchids. A background and lining of
lavender silk was first fitted over the
plain cardboard frame. The leaves on
the net were outlined with silver
thread. The net was then applied
over the silk. The edges of the shade
and the places where sections of net
and silk were joined together were
then outlined with pale lavender col
ored chiffon ruching. The fringe con
sisted of glass beads, matching the
tint of the silk.
Sleeves Running Riot.
The variety in sleeves continues to
grow. The selection of madame’s
sleeve is a point that, of all others,
confuses and distracts her. The fash
ionable sleeve of to-day may be close
fitting from the hand to the shoulder.
It may have a tiny shoulder cap. It
may be air enormous leg o’ mutton.
It may be finished at the elbow with
frills and furbelows, or it may have
a long gauntlet cuff, or a shorter one.
It may be a puffed shoulder cap with
a lace undersleeve, or it may be noth
ing and everything all cast together
in one mass, boasting no particular
fashion, but displaying all the grace in
the world.
The long redingote, full of skirt,
tight of bodice, and puffed as to
sleeves, and draped as to lapels, has
in its short semi-season evolution al
most ceased to be a coat, and has in
stead become a gown. A beautiful
model is shown in blue velvet, whose
front fastens very low in front, with
but three buttons. The skirt is almost
absurdly full, falling in numberless
folds to the ankles. The sleeve is full
at the top and fastens closely about
-the forearm with tiny Jeweled but
tons. The skirt of the costume worn
with this is trained and flounced and
otherwise provided with fullness to
match the redingote.
8ilver and Gold.
Gilt and silver colors are very
smart for dress accessories. For in
stance, the very newest belt for use
with silk waists is the tinsel braid
or silver one. These are at least four
Inches broad, and when fastened In
fronts give a pointed girdle jffect In
the back. They are closed with gilt
or silver frogs and have gilt or silver
fringe tassels on the ends.
This same idea is carried out in
their ornaments, and the most exquis
ite things are shown in the shops in
gilt and silver flowers. They look like
gauze, but are made of chiffon, which
is dipped in gilt or silver tinsel after
the ornament is made. Roses, clema
tis, orchids, laurel leaf tiaras and
butterflies are greatly favored for the
chic evening coiffure.
Vogues in Recent Coats.
Fancy coats, whether they are of
the Louis styles or the modified Direc
toire, are all tight at the waist line,
and where there is undue fullness in
the sleeves it is above the elbow, and
the vest of any period may antagonize
the collar of any other. And of the
making or revers and lapels there is
no end.
A weak solution of alum or soda will
revive the colors in a dusty carpet.
Nails driven first into a bar of soap
will not split furniture or delicate
woodwork.
Clean plaster ornaments by dipping
in cold starch, brushing the powder
off lightly when dry.
Tubs will not warp or crack open
if the precaution is taken to put a
pail of water into each directly after
use.
Equal parts of skimmed milk and
water warmed will remove fly specks
from varnished woodwork or furni
ture.
If tea is ground like coffee or
crushed immediately before hot water
is poured on, it will be nearly twice
as strong.
To Launder Laces.
In laundering battenburg and renais
sance laces it is better not to iron
them. Instead, pin a white flannel
cloth to the ironing board, and over
this put a clean white piece of cheese
cloth. Pin the lace down carefully at
all the scallops and points, and stand
| the board near a radiator or register
where the heat will dry it quickly. The
results are far more satisfactory than
using an iron, and the lace will last
twice as long.
Corn Oysters.
To a pint of corn pulp add the well
beaten yolks of two eggs, two table
spoonfuls of flour, half a teaspoonful
of salt and a saltspoon of black pep
per; mix well, and when the fat for
frying is ready, add the stiflly beaten
whites. Drop, oyster shape, from a
spoon into hot fat and brown on both
sides. Spread with butter and eat hot.
Tabs finish many a bodice back.
Plush is much used in smart head
gear.
Soft fabrics prevail for afternoon
wear.
That Frenchy little velvet bow is

Warm colors reign supreme in the

A curious red on the crushed straw
berry order is favored.
Hand embroidery on tucks Is dainty
for the debutante’s frock.
The tiniest fans' are of peacock
feathers with tortoise-shell sticks.
Skirt flounces caught down at the
bottom In puff effect are new—old.
Every gown has its shoe or slipper
to match and the stocking follows
suit.
Exquisitely lovely are the pale
green art nouveau combs with jeweleA
floral tops.
The blouse with strapped front and
a long silk scarf pulled through is
popular.
Hats of moss, with clusters of red
berries tucked in the green, are a
lovely novelty.
Velvet blouses, both simple and
elaborate, are to be taken into con
sideration this year.
Ideas From Paris.
Women are giving closer attention
to the harmony of line and idea of hat
and coat this winter than ever before.
The fact that the Parisienne of wealth
and taste this season frequently
chooses to make herself the exact re
production of some old painting, every
detail of costume being carried out, is
having its influence on less favored
mortals whose means or opportunities
will not permit of such lavish costum
ing.
Quite naturally the fashion of the
season demand in headwear the
sweeping ostrich plume.
Brown velvet waist.
Blouse of brown velvet, made with a
box plait in the middle of the front
and gathered to a yoke trimmed with
soutache and buttons.
The little pockets are trimmed with
the soutache and buttons and with a
fancy galloon. The latter also trims
the odd revers, or cravat ends, which
are bordered with a narrow lace ruf
fle and fastened at the top with fancy
buttons and little fans of lace. The
standing collar is also of lace.
The full sleeves are finished with
in
fancy bands, bordered with the gal
loon and flaring cuffs, similarly bor
dered, the latter falling over lace ruf
fles.
The girdle is of velvet, ornamented
in front with galloon-trimmed taba
Gloves, Veils and Chains.
One of the most stylish gloves
shown is of very fine quality pique
glace kid, with two toned, three strand
embroidery on the back.
Another smart glove is a gauntlet
affair of pique suede, with two toned
embroidery on the back and with the
gauntlets, which are two inches wide,
elaborately embroidered in colored
silks or tinsels.
The pastel shades, so long shown,
have been supplanted by gloves of far
more brilliant shades and, oddly
enough, the evening shades are far
less brilliant than those shown for or
dinary day wear.
Fev novelties are shown this sea
son in veils. A pretty mesh veil shows
a flat dot or spot in the same color
woven into the veil, varying from
three-eighths of an inch to twice that
width in diameter.
Sets of coral chains—one for the
neck, the other for the wrist—are
seen. The beads are very small and
are worn on the street as well as else
where.
TWO NEW YORK MODELS.
r
1. Reception gown for debutante, of
champagne-colored crepe de sole, with
folds of the material giving a fichu
effect over a vest of Irish point. A
girdle and sash of brown velvet corre
spond with the hands of velvet round
the skirt, and a champagne taffeta hat
with a sweeping, brown feather com
pletes a charming toilette.
2. "At Home" toilette of pale blue
chiffon, with a row of small blue vel
vet bows down the lace vest the same
color as the girdle. The chiffon is
gathered fan like through lace rings,
and flares very full, edged with rich
lace, forming flounces oo the sleeves
and skirt.
Danger in Health Fads
- • . ''*»
“There are people,” said La Roche
foucauld, “who would never have been
In love had they never heard talk of
It.”
There are people, too undoubtedly,
who would never—or “hardly ever”—
bo out of health if they thought less
about the matter, fo* it i? just as pos
sible to take too much care of the
health as too little, and it probably is
eyery bit as mischievous.
We have all heard of the “green
eyed monster” jealousy, who “makes
the food he feeds on.” The health
worrier does much the same. He or
she broods so mournfully over some
little symptom or ailment that depres
sion of spirits results, and depression
is a fruitful parent of both mental
and physical ills.
A medical writer of eminence said
lately that he “never knew a strict
dietarian who did not after a time be
come a confirmed dyspeptic.”
People who are afraid to open their
windows lest a draft should give them
neuralgia, who are afraid to go out if
there is a little rain, or a little wind,
or a little cold, because they are “so
delicate,” infallibly become more so,
ana in time make themselves as sen
sitive as hot house plants.
There are, of course, certain general
rules of health which every one should
understand and comply with if they
wish to avoid illness, such as the dan
ger of breathing impure air in unven
tilated rooms, of drinking impure wa
ter, contracting chills, eating and
drinking too imich, and so forth.
This knowledge, however, need not
turn the care of the health into a
bugbear. We can make a “fad-’ of
our health as of any other useful
thing. We can grow monomaniacal on
the value of fresh air or woolen un
derclothing, and the mischief of our
mania is not the harm we do our
selves as much as the damage we do
others in turning them against the ob
ject of our fad.
Take the wearing of wool, for in
stance. Have not many people been
resolutely set against it by those fad
dists who persist in wrearing their
flannel shirts ostentatiously and who
maintain that their hygienic value
is destroyed if their hideousness is
softened by wearing linen collars and
cuffs with them?—Queen.
Few Friends in City
“While in New York this time,” said
the man from Alabama, “I have ob
served one habit of certain people I
met that impressed me as being very
peculiar and also rather pathetic. I
heard several persons actually count
the number of people they knew in the
whole town. To a man hailing from a
section of the country where acquain
tances are counted by the hundreds in
tead of the tens, that method of cen
sus taking seemed a tremendous busi
ness. With us it would be an impos
sible task to sit down and make a list
of the people with whom we have a
speaking acquaintance. Up here it
is no trick at all. A cousin of mine
who moved North two years, ago was
the first person I saw perform the
stunt.
“ ‘Would you believe,’ she said, ‘that
although I have lived in New York
all this time, there are only 102 peo
ple in town to whom I could speak if
I met them in the street without tak
ing chances of being arrested as an
officious stranger.’
“I laughed at her. ‘How in the
world,’ said I, ‘did you happen to get
your calling list down to such a fine
point?’
“ ‘This is not my calling list,’ said
she. ‘That consists of only six names.
The 102 are just acquaintances, and
include the janitor, my washerwoman
ar.d the boy named Willie down in the
grocery.’
“Her admission struck me as really
pitiful. ‘Why don’t you branch out?’
I asked.
‘“Branch out?’ she cried. ‘Oh, my
dear man, if you had lived in New
York for a while you wouldn’t say
anything about branching out. Be
sides, I am not alone in my desolation
There are lots of other folks in this
town in the same fix, only worse.
They couldn’t get up to the hundred
mark to save their lives.’
“Later I found that she was right,
but, although the habit of counting
one's acquaintances is common
enough, I still think it strange and de
cidedly touching."—New’ York Herald.
After
Clash o
Battle
“The day’s fighting was finished, but
not the day’s work, nor the day’s
drudgery, nor the day's misery,” says
Frederick Palmer, in his book, “With
Ktiroki in Manchuria,” of one of the
actions of the First army. “The
wounded were yet to be brought in,
and the dead and the fuel to burn
them collected by weary limbs. The
plunging fire of the Russians against
their foe, struggling through the rough
fields and over rougher, untilled
slopes, had caused the division 600
casualties, including the death of a
colonel.
“Late in the afternoon a deluge of
rain washed the blood off the grass.
The flood of water turned dry beds
into dashing rivulets. The flood of
slaughter, also settling toward the val
ley .passed on by the single hospital
tent—already congested at daybreak
from the night attack—into the vil
lage, whose population was crowded
into a few houses in order that the
wounded might be crowded into oth
ers. Through every doorway you
caught a glimpse of prostrate figures
and of white bandages with red spots
which made them like wrapped flags
of Japan.
“Dripping hospital corps men
brought in dripping burdens covered
with blankets or with the matting in
which the rice and horse fodder of the
army are transported. When dark
ness came the lanterns of the search
ers twinkled in and out of the hillside.
Dawn found them still at work col
lecting stray Russian wounded, who
had lain suffering all night in the rain
for $1.50 a year and the glory which
the Czar’s service brings them. In
the bushes, in the declivities between
the rocks of many square acres—could
every fallen man be gathered? How
many cries coming faintly from fever
ishly dry lips and finally dying into
a swoon were unanswered? At some
future time, when a Chinese peasant
stumbles over a set of bones, the world
will not be the wiser.”
Thought the City Tame
It was at a dinner party, and the
hostess, coming up to her best friend,
whispered in her ear:
“Would you mind saying just a tiny
word to her by and by? She doesn't
know a soul, and the women are so
horrid to strangers.”
The stranger indicated was incon
veniently in town from Snakeville,
Ore, and being a distant relative, had
to be crushed in at the dinner, under
protest, at the last moment.
The hostess’ friend good naturedly
promised to devote herself after din
ner to the Snakeville widow. But
the fair unknown did not meet her ad
vances with the embarrassed delight
which such civilities should have com
mended. “It’s awfully hot in this par
lor!” was her first greeting, in a tone
in which there lurked a certain com
bative quality. By and by the con
versation steered around to travel.
“Have you traveled much?” asked
the hostess’ friend suavely.
“Oh, I’ve been everywhere. Went
around the world with my brother,
who was engineering. Why, it was in
Russia that I met the Colonel.” (The
“Colonel” was evidently her dead
lord.) ‘Yes,” she went on, “we got
engaged at Tsarkoe Selo, in the grotto
they call Caprice.”
This was unusual, romantic, and the
New York woman said so.
“Ah!” sighed the woman from
Bnakeville, “yes! it was romantic.
There’s been a lot of that in my life.
When a body’s traveled round and
been on the plains and army posts and
hunting buffaloes, a place like your
New York seems awfully tame. I
kind o’ pity you all here!”
The woman agreed that we were,
in fact, very tame—chimney sparrows,
house flies, hopping about, tepid and
insignificant, in search of entertain
ment.—New York Press.

Learning How to Shoot
I believe practice with the rifle the
.true way to learn to shoot best with
the shotgun. The old idea was that
shooting a rifle made you too slow
with the shotgun and that the shotgun
spoiled your rifle shooting. There is
something in the latter, but not much
in the former idea. If one were shoot
ing continuously with either and
should suddenly change to the other,
he might not at once do as good scoot
ing as if he had tried both; it might
take a few days’ practice to get used
to the new conditions. But rifle shoot
ing can injure shotgun shooting only
by making one too alow; and my ex
perience is that one cannot be so in
jured except temporarily.
By beginning with the rifle you eli
minate at once most of the trouble
from excitement, because you know
you can rarely hit a flying bird. If it
makes you slow you will find little
trouble in becoming quick enough.
The man who begins with quick shoot
ing and becomes a good shot after the
expenditure of barrels of ammunition
does not become so by virtue of mak
ing a machine of himself. It is be
cause in making a machine of himself
he unconsciously acquires the habit
of seeing the gun and game in the
same quick glance which he would
not do at first. A quick shot thus be
comes accurate with time; and a show
shot will become quick with time and
with far less practice. There is no
reason why one should not learn in
one season to get sufficient enjoyment
out of the gun if one will but remem
ber that the pleasure Is not in the
size of the bag or in the cleanness of
the score, and never was.—Outing.
Attraction of Afrinrifes.
People who believe In "affinities” ar
gue that it is impossible that the per
sons akin to one another should never
meet. Their theory, which no one can
deny to be pretty, Is that the power of
thought must bring such persons to
gether. Thoughts, they say, wander
through space, like electric messages,
and if we think about a person we
shall affect that person in some way.
By our thoughts we will attract our
affinities.

Power in the Wifely Smile.
The man who finds his wife smiling
happily when he comes home at nights
will be likely to stay there. If he
should go out the memory of her smile
will make him feel that she doesn’*

wanting to go back home and muki

12-oz. package it is because he has
a stock on hand which he wishes to

He knows that Defiance Starch has
