lll,.Q,lf ! I rJ FOR THAT MONDAY J DESPAIR 1 a fTHB fact that her family bo easily tires of cold meat often makes a housewife hesitate about purchasing roast beef, because she knows how long it must last to be worth the original price. Fortunately, however, the pos sibilities contained in cold roast beef are almost endless, especially If care be taken In the roasting and the meat Is not overcooked. The housewife must remember that any meat when warmed over requires more delicate handling than Is needed In Its original preparation and after being freed from coarse fat and gristle should be cooked only long enough to heat thoroughly or else simmered very slowly, according to the nature of the recipe employed. Neither must the housewife forget the answer of a French cook who, when some one In quired how he had prepared a particu larly delicious entree, answered mod estly, "With my brains, sir." Given below are a few formulas for preparing cold roast beef Into dainty .dishes: - 8alml f Beef. Melt a spoonful of butter in a sauce pan and fry until brown a minced white onion? then stir In a spoonful of browned flour, add slowly a cupful of strained stock, a few drops each of kitchen bouquet and of vinegar, a pinch, of thyme (powdered) and a salt spoonful each of paprika, and of celery salt. Simmer the sauce for three or four minutes, add a cupful of cold roast beef fcut Into cubes) and ten chopped stuffed olives. Serve as soon as the latter Ingredients are hot and surround the salmi with triangles of hot toast. A little salt may be required, . but the salt of the olives Is generally ' sufficient. Potato Turnovers. This la a good way to use both beef and left over potatoes. Mix with a pint of creamy mashed ' potato one well beaten egg and after adding pep per and salt to taste roll the potato in flour; then, with floured hands, form It into very "small balls and press or roll j them out very thin. Place a spoonful of savory minced beef (highly season- i ed and moistened with a little gravy) in the center of each. Fold over and press the edges together. Place In the ice chest to become very cold and fry In deep fat until a golden brown. Grilled Beef. Cut the rare beef into presentable slices and dip each Into mayonnaise dressing. Rub the dressing well Into the meat with a knife blade and lay the slices on a platter in the Icebox for at least an hour. When ready to serve fry in hot frying pan, without fat or Vutter. and serve as soon as the slices are nicely browned on both sides. , company "yith horseradish sance. ft t A ROYAL j I WEDDING CAKE j s .a 'jMERICAN brides of wealth and so cial Distinction have wonderful wedding cakes prepared for them, and the $5,000 masterpiece of the baker's art made for the Decies-Gould nuptials several years ago was the finest of its kind on record, but the royal wedding 1 . -lis . v WW.

COIFFURES HH old order giveth place to the new both In the arrange ment of the coiffure and In the ornaments that hold the hair In place. Paris decrees that the "alabaster brow" should once more be In evidence; consequently 'the fair Pa risienne is having . her tresses waved and drawn softly back from the fore head, and in the evening the ends are piled artistically In a fluffy knot on top of the head a trine toward the back. This coiffure movement is a renais sance of the "David head" r coiffure arranged by this great French portrait painter, who adored making pictures of the cblo Parisienne of hie du.y. PARADISE FANCY. . It does seem a bit discouraging, this change of front In halrdressiing, for the majority of girls have only lately train ed their hair to do the remarkable side stunts which completely cover the ears and act as blinders to the auricu lar organ., r . The modish small hats of the season, too. have ha.d their - infinence In the hairdressing world. The latest way of fixing the hair for the street is in a rather loose effect, but In reality the knot is as firm as the proverbial rock of Gibraltar This style outlines the head closely, and the batr is drawn out over the forehead to form a be y'l '!WS - ' - "Bluebirds" For Happiness TTAYB you a Uttlo bluetdrd in your home? Bluebirds In their little ner'ji are the latest development of the campfire girls movement. Younger sisters beg ged so hard, "We want to be campfire girls, too," that something had to be done. It wasn't making the"-world"hap-pler to be making little sisters un happy, and it wasn't good moral disci pline for big sister. Yet tftey couldn't have wee girls Joining the real camp flrea. It was a happy thought to es tablish a Junior department. . What do little birds do? "Bluebirds sing. Bluebirds help. Bluebirds grow." That is the motto of each little nest. A 'nest is a group of birds. Each birdie is called at first a "nestling," then a "fledgling," then a "flier." Nestlings wear little downy gray dresses. When they grow a lit tle bigger their feathers of blue, cinna mon red and white begin to sprout. When the fledgling has learned to fly she wears big blue wings and a cap of ten feathers. "Bluebirds sing," says the mother bird. That is the campfire way of say ing that "bluebirds are for happiness." "Bluebirds sing because they, are happy, not Just to make us hear. Blue birds have happy relations with every body. Happiness lives in bluebirds." These are some of the ways In which the bluebirds are advised to "sing;. Make a doll's house. Model dolls' dishes out of clay. Learn four lullabies to sing to dolls. Learn Mother Goose rimes to tell the dolls. Sing whenever yon are tempted to scold some one. Wear a smile and answer bravely when disappointment comes. Give a doll party. Name five birds, five flowers and five trees. Bluebirds also grow that is, they do things that are good for them physical ly and mentally. ' Knit a wash cloth. Do not buy candy i or sodas for one week. With the money I All About the rpHB separate blouse has come into its own this season, and the woman who revels in the possession of all 5orts of plain and fancy waists has only to decide upon the amount of money she wants to'spend and then go out and make her selections. The shops are full of the most fascinating blouses, fashioned from all sorts of "materials that are modish this year. preference being given to the diapha nous fabrics. There are models of plain silk, bro caded silk, moire silk, all of the crape weaves, of net and of lace, of chiffon and charmcnse, of velvet, velveteen and corduroy, of challie, of sponge cloths and lingerie materials. And tbe colors match those of the smarttailored cos tumes they are designed to accompany. The new waists define the iine of the shoulders and arm, and the lower part is fitted loosely into the belt or sash, the latter being a noticeable detail. There is Infinite variety in the sashes that have come to the fore in this year of grace, and. together with the smart little vest, the collar and cuffs, they provide the decorative note that lifts the" new blouses to a high sartorial plane. ARE DASHINGLY ORNAMENTAL THIS SEASON PEARi. HEADDRESS. coming fringe under the smart little hat's upturned brim. ' . " x . One of the new fads is to hold your knot in place, keep in the ends and ad just it by using combs, barrette and hairpins to match. This is an extreme ly effective fashion. The articles themselves the combs and other pieces are of the new imi tation ' shell, prettily marked to simu late the much more expensive and genuine ware. Sometimes they are plain, but often they are quite elab orate with twinkling rhinestones dain tily set. And this is not so gaudy as the stones suggest they might be, but saved buy a doll for some child who has none. Do not tease or beg for any thing for a week. Go without biting nails for one week. Work .the blue birds' motto in cross stitch or in beads. Thread a needle three times in a min ute and put a good knot in the end of the thread. Have a garden. Turn bed clothes down for airing. Drink no tea or coffee .for one month. No eating between meals for one month.; Be in bed not later than 8 o'clock for one month. Know how to tell the time promptly. - Brush teeth as : often as your dentist requires for one month. 'And little birdies also help. They pick up toys for baby brother or sister; they make their own beds.; they mend the tears in their dresses;, they help to set the table; they clean big sister's white shoes or pick up papers on the sidewalk In front of their house. The campfire guardians are especial ly determined that the little girls shall not forget their dolls. Dr. Luther H. Gullck, president of the organization, said recently: "Just as civilization and religion cen ter about the child, so do child inter ests center about the doll. . If these are to develop into wholesome womanli ness, love of home and children, they i must be given opportunity. The entire school curriculum is of less value than this development of life's fundamental likes and dislikes. .To have school, pi ano lessons, dancing lessons, walks and parties take the major part of daily life is to stunt the soul of the little girl In its most fundamental aspect. It is better to learn to sew in making a doll's-dress, to cook in giving a doll's party, to work out a color scheme on a doll, to sing dolly to sleep, to learn to put dolly to bed regularly and early and to keep her clean than to do all J these things as separate tasks. Much of the incoherence of modern life is due i to the fact that it centers no longer I about the home and the child, as it used to do. May it not be to this that today girls are not looking forward to being mothers with the eagerness that Joy of motherhood warrants?" New Blouse There Is another distinctive feature about the latest blouses, and that is the coattail, this evolution of , the peplum of past seasons being especially in evi dence on the dressier models worn with broadcloth and velvet costumes. Some times this coattail. as was shown in a charming blouse of wjpite charmeuse, has the plaited part attached under three buttons covered with satin in a saxe blue tone. ' - FURS COMBINED. lURS are combined this season. There is hardly a piece, muff, stole, cape or even coat, that does, not combine two furs oV In which one-fur does not trim another. There is an ef fectiveness about this sort of thing that is unusually rich and is no more costly than the one fur alone. While it is usual that two furs of a like nap are put together, such as ermine and mole, white and back fox. It is also true that the long haired furs, such as fox and skunk, which are very effective as trimmings, are delightfully com bined with short haired ones. Prac tically every fur coat one sees has a collar and cuffs and perhaps buttons of another fur. SKYSCRAPER really quite pretty when in -the hair. Other combs have attractive designs Inlaid in gold (or gold plate), and these are particularly good looking, not be ing so ornate as the rbinestone acces sories and yet more suitable for better wear than the plain eombs. Some of the new pins have quaintly curved or rounded ends to admit of their slipping over the coils of the hair. The combs, too, are sometimes ar ranged so j that they may 'be used up and down instead of straight across, as is the more usual custom. Evening coiffures are dashingly or namented, and especially suited to a POOR CIRCULATION. ' Cold feet and' hands indicate poor circulation. Those who suffer from them should exercise every day in the open air, bathe their feet In cold wa ter and rub well with the palms of the hands. Following the cold bath, lift the body up on the toes fifteen times to increase the circulation of the blood. Avoid tight collars, . corsets and clothes. A very simple arrangement for the improvement of a too sallow or pale skin is said to lie in eating figs. Three or four if eaten at a time Is a prescription of a Frenchwoman whose complexion is exquisite. The drinking of orange juice the first thing before breakfast is also an excellent renjedy for whitening the skin, and it is said that any woman who will specialize in her diet upon orange Juice, honey, -raisins, figs, brown bread and pure water will retain the purity of her skin until an advanced age. - The "Papillon" Gown BUItfiHt'LT DANCE COSTUMb. "j"HE Frenchman who designed this "papillon" gown on account of its of a butterfly. The material Is shell black tulle weighted with rhinestones. HAIR ORNAMENT. round face Is an aigret mount placed directly In the center of a rbinestone bandeau banding the forehead. In the illustration is, shown a stun ning band of rhinestones worn in the evening this winter. ' Attached to the Jeweled band Is a rbinestone trimmed feather. There - Is nothing more fetching In evening coiffure Adornments for - an oval face than an odd, softly curling feather fantasie placed at the side,- three strands of the beads crossing the hair in front. Where keisrht is the object aimed for in a hair ornament a flaring paradise PUMPKIN FANCHONETTES. Fsnchonettes are an acceptable variation of the old fashioned pumpkin pie for a Thanksgiving dessert. Mix together one and" one-half cupfuls of sugar, two eggs slightly beaten, two tablespoonfuls of molasses, one table spoonful of ginger, two tablespoonfuls of melted butter, one teaspoonful of cinnamon, a scant half teaspoonful of salt and one cupful of rich milk. Pour into small tins lined with pastry and bake about twenty-five minutes. TRY A COIN. MANY women ruin the nap of the cloth in scraping mud from their garments with a. knife or sharp object. Take a coin, a half dollar, and scrape the mud off with thia after it-is dry and . it will not harm the nap in - the least. ' dance costume baa christened it tbe resemblance to the coloring and outline pink charmeuse, witb airy draperies of effect rising at the front of the head, held with an elaborately beaded fillet which loses itself in the side hair, is a lovely arrangement. Another ornament where a cubit of height is essential is a novel little palm tree ornament composed of ostrich plumes In the Prince of Wales style. . The swathed movement is the latest wrinkle in the evening coiffure, the hair waved and placed in soft masses about the head. Sometimes it is ar ranged like a small tiara, which gives the face the enlgmatio charm of an idol. Another very new way of dressing the hair Is a la Lamballe. A big but terfly bow in black or "tete de negre" tulle is perched rather high up above the nape of the neck, filling the space left by the hair, which is brushed up straight from the roots. The tiny fringe on the forehead- takes away from this coiffure its somewhat austere look, -and it is often outlined by a string, of pearls. The same kind of tulle . bow may replace very successfully,-for "evening wear the moire or taffeta bow which serves to tie the hair of the young girl. Little belongings de luxe for party and theater use are pictured. The fan ! of shaded gray and wnite ostrlcn Has shell sticks. The bag of violet silk ; holds vanity belongings. ! ... CATHERINE TALBOT. Cultivate New Taste In Eating TT seems strange that so few people ever try to cultivate a varied taste In eating. This Is due probably to the fact that as children they were not made to eat different kinds of foods. It Is unforttmate, this restricting cneself to a, certain diet, because there never were so many delicious ecu Dies oixercu on the market as today. Not even in France, the home of the vegetable, are the vegetable' luxuries pffeied for sale at the low prices for wnicn mey are xo do purcntujeu m country. It is more than foolish for people to refuse to try new dishes or foods merely because they have never before done so. Mushrooms, even at the high rate of 50 cents a pound, are; for a small family, cheaper and more nutritious than steak. Artichokes need to be familiarized In manv homes. Eggplant is capable of stuffing, in combination with tomatoes, and in many other ways than the usual fried style. Endive, chicory and romaine are sal ads that deserve more recognition. Cu cumbers can be fried in batter, made into a Jelly and used in other ways dif ferent from the usual vinegar covered manner of serving them. Bananas baked are not the same pasty fruit as when eaten raw, and lima beans ' baked instead of navy beans make a dish fit for a king. The cost of living can be reduced consider ably if one is willing to attempt it and use many of thenew foods on the mar ket or the old foods served in different .ways. ' POMPONS WITH BEADS. pKETTT pompons for slippers are made in this way: Gather a dou ble strip of chiffon about three inches wide or an inch and a half wide when folded into a rosette. Make a little satin rose of the same color. If you are not versed in the ways of making roses from satin make two rosettes as you made "the chiffon one, one smaller than the other, and fasten them together and they will look fiow erlike. Use bright crystal beads for the flower center and dot beads around the edges of the petals of th eatin rose. Pure, clear glass beads give the best effect, but gold or silver beads would also be pretty. WHISTLING FOR HEALTH. DOCTOR has discovered that whistling is good for the health, fills the lungs with Invigorating n-rvcen. and this revivmes nagging spirits and flabby muscles. Boys are prone to be broader chested than girfs and better constructed for deep muscu lar tones because of the lung exercise which accompanies whistling, and one of the first things they try to do when they've passed babyhood is to whistle. CAVIAR AND BREADCRUV3S. (XJT small round pieces from a thin slice of fresh toast, spread them with caviar that has been worked on a plate with butter, chopped parsley and lemon juice, decorate the edges of the croutes with creamed butter, seasoned with lemon Juice and cayenne pepper pressed through a rose pipe. Put a small ball of caviar in the center and dish the croutes garnished with parsley- MUST SHE KEEP HER COAT ON? JF woman adopts man's clothes must she not adopt the etiquette that goes with them? Is it Just that she be per mitted to remove her coat and s4t waistcoated in a warm room wber man must fain remove his coat and cannot? And if thi be unjust what, then, if she' remove aUo her waist coat? It has been known to be done yea, even ' in public restaurant and churches. The antl-suffraglst would ay,."Hav we not said long ere this that woman had more than her rights; that she h4 privileges that members of the other sex would never dream of appropriat ing and that she would resent if they did?" "But that argument Is sword that cuts both ways.' replies the feminist.

Ia this the ribbon is run through eyelet that are placed along the edges. Tbe appearance is not unlike the Frencht beach sandal which our women bav taken up In the last two years for pub lic dancing. Of course tbe price t quite different. - ' The women who cannot dance la sandals have lace slippers with some what flat heels or high Spanish ones, but not the Incurved French beel. which is not as popular as it once was.
