Emmently the hats we have been ‘wearing for the past decade have been suited to the collarless neck. i Ong thing that made women at first | B ate about the collarless frock or coat for street wear was because of that long line that used to extend from the hat to the top downward when one ‘were a collarless frock. When the hat dro) downward, eclipsing ears, we almost forgot that the collarless frock -had ever given us concern. ‘The collarless frock has not ceased to charm the American woman. Still there is something unquestionably good in_style about the high flaring collars that seem to be as much in line with the clothes designed by Paris dress- makers as by the Americans, who are ushing the- direotoire tendency all by mselves. ‘The Eugenie Hat. One thing is certain: The flat, broad-brim. drooping hat that has come to us recently as part of the second empire style tendency. a hat eminently _suggestive of _Empress FEugenie when she was fashion tator of that Napoleonic empire— gulling_as that hat may Be. it was| never intended to go with a flaring high collar. But then the second em- pire clothes are collarless and the style is one that has been pushed only for afternoon and evening. Enough for practical purposes it is to remember that the high close-fit- ting collar, whether it flares or not, is not well worn with a flat drooping hat. It needs something definitive in the ‘way of hat trimming. In the directoire period this was quite apt to take the form of a drooping feather added to a bat that turned off the head at one side. It was a period of cocked hats— <ocked at the side, cocked at the back and cocked in the front. Imagine one ©f the Unbelievables wearing the Peter Goes to Look for An- other Sleeper. BY THORNTON W.

The | worst of it was Peter had no means of finding out. You see, that house of Bobby Coon was in a hig hollow tree and the doorway was a long, long way above Peter's head.

It is a present-day departure in small houses and small apartments to build without a dining foom. The plan was first tried in apartments where it was found that a limited space could be used to better advantage if it were made into one good-sized living room and a kitch- enette than if it were cut up into three small rooms—kitchen, dining room and living room. ' So recently suburban dwellers who have been limited to three rooms on the first floor of their house have often de- cided in favor of a living room, a study and a kitchen, or have turned entire space outside the kitchen into one really spacious room. There are advan to be ghined also disadvan- for the thereby. But there a tages—that is, there are smares unwary. It seems like a device for the there is maid than where there is none, FoRit 1s not always easy to keep the traces of meals and meal-getting in the kitchen save just when the meal is wanted. Sometimes in the maidiess gou!‘holll it ‘i’l A':dll(:nct :.‘i.vln(m to ave a room devoted to meals that may be shut off save at meal times. The difficulty can be minimiged, how- ever, if you have sufficient shelf room in the kitchen. Moreover, if you like, you may have a chest of drawers or cabinet of some sort in the study or living room, where meals are ‘served, that will serve as a repository for table linen, silver, etc., without suggesting its function as a buffet. 2 A substantial tea wagon also is an ad- vantage. It mm brought in to act as a serving while the meal is in progress, and then wheeled out to the kitchen afterward. Baked Tongue. Wash and trim one fresh beef tongue, roll it round and keep it in shape with tape. Boil it the day before you wish to use it, so_that it may become cold and firm. Put the tongue into a greased baking tin, dot with butter substitute, dust with salt and pepper and cook for one and one-half hours, basting frequently. When cold slice and serve decorated with parsley. When choosing an ox tongue select ome with a smooth n | skin, as a very rough skin is a sign of age. Fried Tripe With Sauce.
