New Autumn Dishes
T this neasnn of the year the
chefs of the fashionable
imt'ls nnd restaurants of the
i Itles particularly sought by
1 no uln'er traveler give much
A
nought to tha composing of new
lellracies to tempt the guet. Some
of these more attractive and newer
dishes and ones which may be adopted
by th housewife are given below.
An entirely new and delicious sa:art
!' imposed of fresh flits cut In halves,
i ll I around t h.? edge of a dish In the
c.-mer of which place mound of
ciions of grapefruit, oranges and
liii't-applfs, decorated with tiny strips
of re) and green pimento end Maras
chino cherries. Serve with this naiad
binall dishes of hot salted almonds
and little squares of cream cheese. A
mild diesslng of oil. lemon Julca, Tar
ragon vinegar, halt and white pepper
completes the salad.
"I'ear Illy" u the pleasing nam of
a new and delicious dish suitable for
luncheon It la mad of fine large
pears slightly hallowed from the sum
end and filled with tha pulp of tha
pear mixed with rich cream and a lit
tle brandy, the pear Is then placed In
a layer of vanilla lea cream on a
plate, ornamented with grapes cut In

Another new dish Is a ' Ralad Maria."
n ade Iroin a head of lettuce on which
is placed a layer of peeled and pHted
plums, served with a French dressing

Piece of Ice held by a shatp fork
while stirring. "Salad Caprice" is
made of heads of lettuce covered with
sections of oranges and tomatoes and
nuettes, while roast beef is served with
most any of the vegetables, although to
uiHtoes, corn and cauliflower are a safe
combination; a roast of veal needs a
piquant sauce of some kind, and beans are
a good vegetable to serve, being very nu
tritious, a quality, lacking in veal.

.MONO the bUs of knowledge
I k 1 which we all have In a gen-
m. I eral and therefore some
what hazy way, might be
grouped the numerous Hal
lowe'en customs which we have en
Joyed at different times, which we
would like to put Into practice again,
hut can't quite remember. These In
cantations, whose defflclency has been
proven time and time over are offered
not as something new. but as memory
refreshers, for In Hallowe'en fes
tivities It Isn't the "new" Idea which
has first value, but the one which
we feol has been used by former Hal
lowe'en celebrators and the one which
has therefore "tradition" to support It.
Two hundred years ago It was cus
tomary to build huge bonfires on the
hills to proclaim that majestic ' and
sacred rites were being performed,
that it was a season of great rejoic
ing; so a huge fire of logs Is a desir
able attribute to a Hallowe'en party.
Many a city house or flat can boast
of only a gas log but be sure to light
It, using candles only for Illumination.
Of course, Jack o'lanterns must glow
from every available comer, from
mantle and bookcase; In fact, every
spot capable of holding it should bear
a grinning "Jack."
Have popcorn to he popped by the
guests, dishes filled with red apples
and l.owla of nuts to crack. On this
one ni?ht "Fate" gives an opportunity
to p.er Into the future and divine the
course of true love. Tassels from corn
ears are named by the maidens, then
traced ever the door, and the man
fill-: to pas under the one he-aiing
Ids name Is supposed to he the life
partner nf the Kill who named It.
Bobbing for apples is a stunt so old
Hint mi one seems able tri tell Its
origin, tut no Hallowe'en party l
complete without it. Fill a small tub
lth water, put In eight or ten apples,
first having Inserted In one of them a
ring. In another a thimble. In the third
a rnhv and in one a button. Thus
will th fate if four people be deiidrl
en the spot.

Fortunes may be. told by the tradi

convenient) on a table, one tilled with
water, one with milk and the other
empty. Kach maiden Is then blind
folded, turned around three times and
started In the direction of the bowls.
If she dips her finger In the water
she will marry a bachek-r, If In the
milk her husband will be a widower,
while if her finger touches the empty
dish she Is fated to remain single.
After each one makes the test the
order of the bowls must be changed
so as to prevent those who watch from
knowing which Is which.
To ascertain Infallibly how many
years will elapse before the subject of
the test will marry, let the hostess
have In readiness a laige silk hand
kerchief. By rights this should be a
new one that has never been washed.
