WOMAN’S PAGE. THE. EVENING STAR, MONDAY, JANUARY 24, 192 _ Where to Keep Food. The old-time housewife had to know quite a good deal practically concern- ing the ways of keeping food in the house_hold. But in these hand-to- mouth days the practice of keeping food has rather gone out of fashion. We: evade the whole subject by buy- ing'no more of anything than we need. However, there is of!’en emnon:ly":l‘:: convenience in getting a ge! supply of certain food commodities at a time and it is not difficult to keep most things from deterioration. The attic is a splendid place for keeping many things in wintertime, that is if you have an attic. ‘The attic is cool, but not usually freezing, thus - -fmaking a good place for vegetables and extra suplies of fruit. Potatoes should be kept in a dark place, but The Fi'agrance‘ of’ FROCKS OF FIGURED FABRICS. . g " " BY ANNE RITTENHOUSE. - Last summer in Deauville, where the fashions of the world are often launched, a woman of prominence in- 7 sisted upon appearing in gowns with | Batterns that resempied “the Rower s gardens that ran by the side of the Tiny frills of pleated silk trimy many of the new frocks and blouses. e Buttonholes piped with & dit-of bright color, Egyptian red, jade-green, Chinese blue and burnt orange form @ decorative note oa many frocks. ‘There are hand-painted leather belts ;&m to some of the new <loth y Cape coats of angora are featured for southern wear and will probably continue to be worn this spring for sport wear in the north.

Far better that she should remain true to the plain fabrics. Her loyalty would ‘be rewarded by a continuous graciousness in appearance. Yet there i no hope for this thing to come to pass after the orgy of widely pat- terned. brocade that the dowager duchesses and their kind have worn throughout the season. No woman seems to have taken her figure into consideration when she be- gan to choose the brocade that was to serve her for the evening or the aft- ernoon. She even got careless when it came to buying figured crepe de chine for ordinary frocks. The conse- quences were pathetic now and then. IStout, somewhat awkward figures were accentuated in their defects. Hips were revealed in all their bulk. Waists were made to look larger than nature Intended. The truth is, as the artistic French know, that all patterned fabrics, espe- cially large brocades, are for the slim, the undulating, the reed-swaying-in- the-wind type. They should be barred from the dowager-duchess kind un- less the figure of youth has been miraculously kept intact. When, therefore, the fashion for patterned crepe, silks, chiffons comes over the horizon there is no hope that they will be avoided by all those who should stick to plain_surfaces. If no one could save them from bro- cade, no one can save them from fig- ured fabrics. One must record the fashion, how- ever, and the figuratiops are the fas! ion ' They make the Palm Beach sea- son’ more flowerful than ever. ‘“They are used in ribbon, in material by the yard, even in gloves. Let us hope they’do not come to hats. If we use them, discretion and artis- try must be combined. No woman should fail to take this truth to heart. She will have her judgment severely tested. There is a gown of the pat- terned crepe shown in today’s sketch. It has a blue ground with a flower garden printed on it. At the walst line is a large rosette of ribbon, the kind of ornament with which wé are getting fairly familiar, but whicl should also use with care. howe There is a strip of dark blue d down the side to steady the design as ‘Where You Can’t See.

The complexion of the face is there for criticism every time they look into a mirror, which is several times a day, but the back of the neck and the back of the shoulders are rarely seen. The first bit of advice is—never wear anything against the neck ex- cept fresh white.

Honey and sirups of various sorts should never be kept in a damp place, and for that reason the attic is usually to be_preferred to the cellar. In the kitchen the chief considera- tion ‘is that food must be kept away from possible intrusion of mice. In cold weather this is the chief dif- culty. For this reason it is worth while to have a screen food cabinet. Make sure that it is free from crev- ices large enough to admit a mouse. It is more desirable in keeping cereals, crackery, and such things than a closed glass-covered cupboard is, because it has free ventilation, thus keeping the food it contains from becoming soggy.

If you do the crumbs will become S0gEY. LISTEN, WORLD! By Elsie Robinson There's all kinds of gloom. Take Smith's, for instance. Smith's mar- ried—fne little wife.

These were bad enough some days and caused no end of worry, because it was 80 very, very hard to find food enough. It was the presence there of Whitey the Snow Owl, the White Rob- ber, as all the little people called him. He had come down from the Far North, driven down by hunger. He was big and strong and fierce, and the very sight of him struck terror to the hearts of all save those too big to fear him. But even the latter hated him, because he took the food they felt was theirs by right. Whitey would have told them it wasn't theirs until they caught it, and that he had just as much right there as they had. But, of course, they wouldn’t have ad- mitted this.

Blacky the Crow had lost a tail feath- er and been lucky to escape at all when he had been surprised by Whitey early one morning; even Blacky’s sharp eyes had failed to see him in the white coat~*It got so that neither Sammy nor Blacky dared go far from the thickest trees in the Green Forest. “Somebody has got to do something to get rid of that fellow,” declared Blacky. “Who can?’ demanded Sammy Jay. Blacky scratched his black head. He scratched and scratched as if he were trying to scratch an idea out of it. “I dont know,” he confessed at last. “There is just one person who can drive him away, but how to get him to do it is more than I know.” said For a few minutes neither said an- other word.
