BROUGHT UP TO DATE
HOW LAST YEAR'S COSTUME
' MAY BE RENOVATED.
Judicious Handling, Combined With
the Use of a Little Fresh Mate
rial, Will Work Wonder
With Old Garments.
The tailored suit seen on the left
of the two figures Illustrated shows
what can be done with a tight hot
bled skirt of two years ago and a lit
tle plain coat In dark navy serge. A
suitable material to combine with this
would be a heavy whipcord bengallne,
Renovated Blue Serge Coat and 8klrt
and Afternoon Frock.
which forms the underskirt; a wide
band of the bengallne (depth about
18 Inches) is attached to an under
lining, pf messallne. The old skirt
could be made to form a tunlo which
falls to the knees ln'front and at the
sides. A separate straight panel sec
tion hangs at the back to the full
length of the skirt and Is stitched flat
to the tunlo. The center seam In
front Is opened up, and a taffeta
braiding outlines the edge of the button-holes,
with buttons on the oppo
site side. The coat Is cut away In
front; an effect obtained by merely
rounding off the sides. The revers
and square sailor collar are in ben
gallne, white a taffeta braid binding
Is sewn round the coat to match the
skirt The sleeves of a coat are gen
erally a little worn, so that It may
be necessary to cut them off below
the elbow and have turned-back cuffs
of the bengallne. This will bring the
costume up to date and give It quite
a new and smart appearance.
The second sketch shows what can
be done to renovate a last season's
blue satin frock with kimono sleeves
and a plain skirt that Is slightly gath
ered round the hips where it may
have become worn or shabby. For
the skirt, therefore, the ' best piece
of the original satin could be used,
cutting. off the hem and top of hips
and interlining It, while any extra
vullness may be taken out The bod
Ice and upper part Is veiled in tucked
marqulsite or chiffon of the same
blue shade, while the collar, cuffs and
center front are In blue satin trim
med with buttons. This would make
a charming little afternoon frock, and
be both neat and dainty. The neck
may be cut open or filled In with a
lace or net collar and yoke.
Help to a Good Complexion.
Just before going to bed one might
each week slip Into your room gown
and draw a chair before the basin In
your bathroom. Provide yourself
with a Turkish towel, a fact towel,
an ordinary face cloth and face cream,
sit an'd begin operations.
First, apply "the cleansing cream,
smearing it well in, removing what
remains on the surface with the soft
cloth and. sit back and rest while It
remains from three to five minutes.
Remove It, and while the face is still
hot from the cloth, rub in more cream
and cover with a cloth dipped In wa
ter as cold as It Is possible to have
It. Allow this to remain a few min
utes, then remove and wipe the face
gently, dust with rice powder and
there you are, your skin feeling, and
perhaps looking, as fresh as that of
an Infant. Remember this treatment
should not be taken oftener than once
a week, but then regularly.

BIG BUCKLES MUST BE WORN
Fashion Is Insistent on This Point,
and the 8marter They Are the
Better the Style. .
Dig buckles are emphatically to the
fore thla season. Tbey are to be worn
upon all manner of hats save those In
tondod for really ceremonious- occa
sions; as a fastening for evening
wraps and as clasplngs for girdles and
collars upon daytime frocks. Therefore
If money lBn't an object, be sure to
look about the ehops for a really smart
buokle or set of buckles. You will
find them a-plenty, but the smartest
of them are of square, oblong or oval
shape In chisel or Jewel-set silver or
gold; In Russian enamel; In Cloisonne
or metal; in hand-painted china and In
jade. Some of the handsomest buckles
are of a fabric like cloth of gold or
silver heavily embroidered; of old
French tapestry threaded with metal
lic strands and of hand-embroidered
velvet or satin.
If you cannot afford to buy a hand
some big buckle and haven't the cour
age to try to fashion one of a fabric,
search among the trunks In the attic
for an odd shoe buckle. One of these
in metal may be polished and run
through with a strip of black velvet
ribbon, and there is always the chance
that the search may be rewarded by
the finding of a shoe buckle in English
paste than which there Is no smarter
trimming for a tailored hat In beaver
or velvet.
TAKE UP THREE-PIECE SUITS
In the Same Material or In Combina
tion of Two Silks They Are
Equally Popular.
According to a statement made by
the Dry Goods Economist, the vogue
for garments of the dressier type Is
no doubt responsible for the Interest
recently shown In three-piece suits.
Up to the present time the majority
of these three-piece suits have been
made up In silks or high-class novelty
worsteds.
Silks have been particularly good
and many smart three-piece suits of
moire, faille, poplin, charmeuse and
brocade are now being shown, as well
as a combination of two silks,, such
as moire and faille, brocade and faille,
etc.
Although some three-piece suits
have been brought out to retail at a
moderate price, very little attention
has been given to cheaper grades.
This is because houses that are able
to turn out a good - popular-priced
tailored suit seldom have an or
ganization that- Is capable of making
an equally attractive dress and . vice
versa.

FRENCH PASTRIES IN DEMAND
First Served by Fashionable Hotels,
They Have Been Taken Up by
Hostesses Who Are Up to Date.
The increase In the number of good
patisserie shops where, really delicious
French pastries- can be purchased
probably accounts tor the serving ot
French pastries for dessert at the
home table Just as they have been
served for years In the big hotels and
restaurants. There a special boy goes
about with, a hug silver platter Oiled
with concoctions that make the mouth
water and the purse strings open.
When the diner or luncher chooses the
sort he desires the boy deftly removes
It with a wide bladed silver knife.
Nowadays the horn hostess has the
maid pass French pastries at luncheon
and dinner. The are passed on a big
platter and naturally each guest
chooses the particular sort which ap
peals to him.
Many of them are simply boat
shaped snails of puff paste filled with
fruit of some sort Grapes, covered
with rich syrup, are sometimes used
for filling; and strawberries, luscious
and ripe, combined with a syrup, can
also be need. Some of the pastries are
made In layers of puff paste with an
appetising and delicate cream or al
mond paste or fruit filling between.
These Interesting pastries - really
help to solve one of the housewife's
many worries, for they constitute a
dessert which Is easily procured and
which la u welcome relief from Ices
and creams and the more usual sweets
served. New York Times.

Prepared for the Late or Sun
day Night Supper.
A light, bat fairly substantial edible,
served piping hot directly from a chaf
ing dish, adds immensely to the in.
formal Sunday night supper. Creamed
salmon Is delicious and Is easy to pre
pare In a chafing dish. Use the hot
water pan first brown a little butter
and sprinkle crumbed bread Into It
taming over until crisp. Set these
crisped crumbs aside and proceed,
with the blaser pan, to make a elm.
pie bechamel or cream sauce, first
melting a tablespoon of butter, stir
ring in a tablespoon of flour and add
ing a scant cup of milk. Season this
fairly-thick white sauce with salt, pep
per and a few drops of .lemon Juice.
Stir in a -can of salmon and when,
steaming hot and ready to serve, shake
over the top the browned crumbs. The
creamed salmon may be served with
out the bread crumbs, but they add an
appetizing flavor, suggestive of the
browned crust over, a hot dish pre
pared In the oven.
Beef a La Waldorf.
One and one-half pounds of beef cut
small, three onions cut, half cup tapi
oca soaked awhile In cold water, one
can of peas, halt cup bread crumbs,

two heaping teaspoons baking powder
to the flour; beat all until light Drop

New Kind of Apple Pie. .
Stew apple, add brown sugar, butter,
cider Jell, cinnamon, clove, nutmeg
and little lemon. Just the same season
ing one uses In mine (meat) pie, and
bake with two trusts. I made this by
accident one day, intending to add
some meat, but the result was so good
I concluded to orglnate a new pie In
stead. Boiled Salmon Steak.
Boll a pint of broth or water with s
small bunch of celery, half a teaspoon-
ful of salt, quarter saltspoonful of pep.
per and a tablespoonful of vinegar. Cut
the steaks In suitable pieces and put
the fragments and bones in the boiling
liquid. Place the salmon In a clean
saucepan and strain the seasoned broth
ever it; cover and let boil briskly for
ten minutes. Serve In a deep dish
with the liquor Instead of sauce. The
full flavor and the richness of the fish
are preserved in this dish. -
Marmalade of Rhubarb.
Two quarts rhubarb, two pints sugar,
two oranges, Juice ot one and grated
rind of one; one cupful chopped rais
ins. Cut the rhubarb in pieces, cover
It with sugar and let it stand over
