Now the pendulum has swung | back to leather coats. The new idea is to use them for sports. There is much to be said against them in that field, if the wearer is to go in for the actual playlng of games. They do not absorb mois- ture and this is decidedly against them. Flannel is by far the best fabric for sports because of its ability to_absorb, If the leather jacket is to be a purely ornumental feature of the la ape in the open on a sum- s day. then wear it by all means. cxcessively decorative. When in beight colors it adds to the gay- ety of any costume. The dcsigners of these sport gar- ments have followed the trickery of the season in placing lines of stitch ery over the surface either in square or diamonds. Or they sestrain them- selves. and merely place lines of stitching at all edges. They do not leave the surface plain and unadorn- ed. That's certain Look at the coat -in the sketch.

Try some | {of the following in the lunch box | you are filling: gl Tomato_ Skin Stuffed With Fruit.— Select a large, ripe but firm tomato. Cut a small piece out of the top, scoop out the interior (saving it for | soup) and fill the empty skin with chopped apple and a few cooked raisins mixed with either boiled or | mayonnaiso salad dressing (use only enough to moisten the fruit. Some of the bottled dressings on the mar- | ket are very good to use when one | is in a hurry).

Conscience Brand Mattresses Exzpert workmen gently bring great pressure to bear on the buoyant masses of long-fibre filling until they are knitted in the depths of the mattress case. After long use, it is as buoyant and springy as ever. It far ezceeds the average mat- tress in comfort, cleanliness and endurance.

Spiced Stuffed Beet—Cook' a large beet in water to which has been add- ed a tablespoon or two of vinegar and | a clove. When tender, drain and | scoop out the center from a small hole made in the top. Mix this beet- center with an equal portion of ba- ! nana cut into small pieces: add just enough salad dressing to moisten, as above, and fill the beet with this mixture, wrapping it in oiled paper to pack. ! Carrot Marmalade.—This is _inex- | pensive and is fine to spread on bread, | as sandwiches (and especially good | for one to eat in the spring). Scrape | two pounds of raw carrots and put | them through a food chopper or chop them finely by hand. (There should be about one quart of this chopped carrot from two pounds of raw.) Now add the grated rind and juice of two lemons and two oranges, be- ing sure to get all the thick white partbeneath the yellow skin, for this white part contains the ‘“pectin” which makes the marmalade thicken. — e e Carrots and Spinach. Carrots and spinach make a nice entree. Peel three carrots and cut into two-inch lengths. ®oil in salted water until tender, drain, cut the center from each, mix four table- spoonfuls of chopped cooked chicken. two tablespoonfuls of cooked ham, one tablespoonful of bread crumbs, one teaspoonful of chopped parsley, one tablespoon of white sauce and one egg yolk. Sea- son with salt, pepper and nutmeg; cook until hot. "Fill the cavities of the carrots with this mixture, place in buttered pans and bake for fifteen minutes. Arrange two cups of hot chopped cooked spinach in the shape of a pyramid on a hot dish, season and surround with baked carrots. Decorate with onion and pour a hot gravy around. Skewered Smelts. wooden toothpick to hold the heads and tails together, dipped in milk, well floured and fried in deep fat, make an attractive fish course. The skewers can be removed before serv- ing, as the fish will usually keep their shape. Garnish the piate on which the fish are served with cress and slices of lemon rolled in finely minced parsiey. If the smelts are to furnish the main part of the meal pile them in the center of a hot platter and surround them with a border of mashed potato, or mound the potato :nd encircle with the fish for a bor- er. —_— Lentil and Onion Croquettes. Soak overnight one large cup of dried lentils. In the morning drain, add two cups of water, stalk of celery, small carrot sliced and two or three sprigs of chopped parsley. Cook until soft, then remov the seasonings and rub through a sieve, stirring in a cup of thick onfon stewed and put through a sieve, one cup of soft bread crumbs, #alt and pepper to taste and one or two beaten eggs.

In all these new sport skirts there is no evidence of the struggle be- tween the long and short lengths. The battle line does not reach into this field Skirts are frankly and unequivocally short. They are in- tended to show the mew thin type of woolen stocking in wood colors, or matching the shoes. ] If the orange skins break before you can grate all the yellow and white part off, then vou can cut off what remains and chop it finely by hand. adding it to the mixture. Next add three cups of granulated sugar and set all aside to stand over night, to improve the flavor (the flavors be come well blended by this long stand- ing). In the morning put the mix- ture in a galvanized iron kettle and boil it up (add no water unless the mixture becomes very dry at the end of the boiling—then a very little hot water may be added) until it looks transparent and until two drops will form at once on the edge of a spoon when a little of the hot marmalade is taken from the kettle and dripped back into the kettle.

Most leaves used as foods can be! classed together, for they resemble one inother in their dietary properties. Re- cent investigation by McCollum and his olleagues shows t d leaf food contains from three five times as to h ash constituent as grain food, and . always especially rich in just those clements in which grain is poor, name- Iy, calctum, sodium and chlorine. It follows that in a diet the leaf food sup- plements the deficiency of such grain foods as wheat, oatme like. The leaf of a plant is rich in cellular structure, but contains little reserve food material, whereas the grain of a plant is just the other way, consisting mostly of reserve, inorganic food in the endosperm, and of only some of the im portant dietary factor known chem- lly as._“water-soluble B and “fat- uble A? in the germ. Moreover, the crains we eat are very often robbed of (he germ. and we do not get even that upply, small as it is, to supplement the deficiency of the endosperm. The leaf of a plant gets carbonic acid gas from air and water and -mineral salts from the solid through its roo and so builds up proteins, starches, sugar and fats, which are used either to grow more leaves or for storage in the seed or tuber. When we eat leaves, therefore, we eat really a mosaic of liv- ing cells which contain all the chemical combinations necessary for the nutri- tion of aimal life. In_qualit are complete foods, but in quan man_ beings, and, indeed animals more than leaves supply quantity they can get from grains. Grain is good food, but needs to be supplemented by the vital ash wealth of the leaf foods. rice and the need Onions Baked in Ramekins. Parboil twelve onions, then drain and chop them.

Rice Loaf With Salmon. Line a slightly buttered bread pan or quart mold with warm steamed rice, having walls from three-fourths to one inch thick. Fill the center with eold, boiled salmon, flaked_ and moistened with egg sauce. Cover with rice, set in a pan of hot water, over with buttered paper and bake one hour. Turn onto a hot platter, pour around egg sauce and garnish with slices of hard-boiled egg and eggs stuffed with parsley. Slender Ankles. In England they have a process of reducing fat ankles by sweating bff the flesh and by massaging very vig- | orously to break up and scatter the fatty deposits. They also advocate, as some of our beauty parlors here do, wearing snug rubber strappings around the ankles as a means of re- duction. Now, do you happen to know that eating too .nuch salt sometimes causes thick ankles. A great many | doctors do not ¢ven know that. But the best chiropodists do—that being part of their work. perhaps.

From a correspondent comes a novel suggestion for cleaning hair- brushes. She states that she uses a washboard either in the stationary tubs or the bathtub, to avoid being splashed. She uses a bar of soap on the ridges of the washboard and proceeds to rub the bristles of the brush back and forth over the board, in the saem manner as washing clothing. She claims that the work is accom- plished more quickly and better than the ordinary way of scrubbing the bristles with the fingertips and avoids all the unpleasant scattering Wretchedness is reached, pour the hot marmalade into clean half-pint-size jelly glasses into anything you like) ~which have just been rinsed out with hot water (a oold glass is apt to crack when a hot thing is poured into it).
