Br cult than it used to be, when at forty began the age of embon- point, Many older women, although far to the out size class, are grateful for anything that flatters their contours, especially about the hips, and there aye un eniably cer- under coats and, in lighter variations, for the South, The new "porcelain" prints are especially good for the wo- man who doesn't wish to appear too frivolous, They show scenes reminis- cent of those on "toile de jouy," usu- ally in a dark blue and cream, One smart two-piece dress of this print, with the new lingerie collar and cuffs and a front circular skirt, conceals practically every defect of the woman who has reached the mas- seuse stage.

Henry, Albert Street, «tain colors forbidden to the woman v id Ji Magi her brother, Mr, Clifford Knowles, | has returned home from Albany, whose hair is beginning to turn grey. Many women feel that black and white with a dash of mauve on es- pecially festive occasioms 18 all that is permitted them, but they might much better vary this color scheme with an equal number of gowns of dark blue. Black is smart and dash- ing on the very young; it has just a hint of widowhood and sedateness on anyone old enough to be on her dig- ty. "Wile the red dress and short skirts of the dancing grandmother are to be deplored, there is no reason why acajou should not be included in any wardrobe, and instead of the shades of beige which make grey hair Jook harsh, there is a lovely, soft color known as "wheat," which is a cross between grey and beige, and flatters the class who are hopefully awaiting the piles of snowy white hair that haven't quite arrived, For daytime wear the mode of the moment is particularly kind to 'those who have to swear off French pastry with their lunch. The godets and pleats being used to give skirts that distinct flare are flattering to the large hips, Two-piece dresses are usually a better choice than those too-revealing sports dresses that make a single line from shoulder to hem, and the cardigan that accom- panies 60 per cent, of the new sports dresses should prove a boon. One word of warning: The new vogue for the high waistline is all very well for the woman inclined to be stout, provided she does not ac- cept it with one of those narrow belts that are being put on so many of the new sports dresses, It is at the nat- ural waistline that those disconcerting rolls of fat first show. In fact the less pronounced the waistline on a dress the better, Many of the new prints are excel- fent as a choice for wear right away They have a wide selection, includ- ing the new Patou scarf of flat crepe, in black and white, which ties in. a bow in the centre front and hangs like a sailor collar behind, A tucked affair of black and white crepe de chine. gives the effect of a high neck by an ingenious side knot- ting. In formal afternoon modes the older woman comes into her own, Very few flappers can carry off the elegance of the all-lace dress, with its long, flattering lines, and most of the gowns of this type are built for mamas who head the receiving line, One charming dress is a blue-grey net, embroidered in a Chantilly lace pattern, over gold cloth, with sides that are gracefully longer than the hem, and an embroidered net jacket, which can be removed for informal dinner wear, Another excellent dress of erepe de chine is a soft shade of grey, with much beige lace to give it an added importance and a long narrow scarf, dropping from one shoulder to both back and front and softening the lines of the figure, Who Is a Day over Thirty? For evening, velvets, laces and chiffons are to be chosen rather than the revealing satin or taffeta, which is now restricted almost entirely to the bouffant and ' pictured-type of dress, which no one should attempt who is a day over thirty. One very engaging gown is of black and white printed chiffon in a large floral pattern, It has lots of trail- ing scarfs and uneveness about the hem, and is completed by an oval cape bertha of black lace. Another gown has a Jace cape covering only one arm in a sweeping downward line, which gives the older woman a chance to show, with dignity, arms of which she is still proud, elpful ints For arassed ousewives APPLE DUMPLINGS (By Mrs. R. A, in reply to Mrs, C. S's request) Biscuit dough, 6 crisp apples (small ones), 1% tablespoons butter, 74 cup sugar, cinnamon, Core and peel apples and roll out _ the biscuit dough to from 2 fourth to an eighth of an inch in thickness. Cut in six pieces, either square or round, and place an apple, whole or quartered, in the center of the bis- cuit dough. (If round bundle the edges together as the top of a paper bag). Bake in 2 moderate oven from a half to three-quarters of an hour, Serve with hot or cold sauce. Mrs. R. A. also sent, with the above recipe, ome for raisin and lemon tarts, ich is to many a new deli- cacy and is very enjoyable. RAISIN AND LEMON TARTS Put 2 cups of small seedless rai- sins, 1 cup sugar, the grated rind of | one lemon, one-eighth teaspoon of salt and % cup of boiling water in a double boiler, Blend one tablespoon of flour and one teaspoon cornstarch with two tablespoons cold water and add to the first mixture. Cook, stir- ring constantly, until the mixture is thick. Remove from the fire, add the juice of one lemon and stir well, Fill the baked tart shells with the mixture, sprinkle thickly with shred- ded cocoanut and top each tart with a candied cherry. If you prick your finger when do- ing fine needlework and stain the ar- ticle a little ammonia will remove the mark. 3 Try polishing your jewelry with al broken gas mantle crushed to a powder. It will give a splendid lustre. i To exterminate earth worms from potted plants, thrust unburnt sul- phur match head down into the earth around the plants. Use from two to three matches, according to the size of the plant. * For oyster dressing use a pint of oysters to three cups of bread crumbs, x % # Left-over fish is delicious the next day served cold as a salad or heated again and served with a cream sauce on toast. 22a Valentines Best in Art and Literature foo FATHER, MOTHER, SISTER, BROTHER and FRIEND Feit Bros.
