WEDNESDAY, MAY 4, 1921, KNITTED FROCKS AND FELT HATS BY ANNE RITTENHOUSE. It is not easy to sell Americans the kind of knitted frock worn by the women in France, just as it is far from easy to persuade them that the light, soft felt hat is the thing in millinery for morning wear. So far the Americans ask questions and stop there. They do not buy warm materials for summer use in quan- tity, although the milliners who cater to an exclusive trade insist that women are beginning to ask more and more for felt hats trim- med with leaves, roses or small fruit. Such hats are not intended for the % A _KNITTED FROCK ARRANGED PART OF WHITE STRIPED WITH BLACK, LOWER PART BLACK STRIPED WITH WHITE.

G knitted suits are also worn to the places where smart people fore- gather for the seasonable sports, and the felt hat goes along with the worsted gown. As to the warmth of these cos- tumes—that's another story. Our climate_does not_permit s to take many liberties with it. We are first cousins to Spain when it comes to the degrees of our summers. PBut the doctors, or some type of such advisers, are pointing to the fact that flannel is cooler than silk when one is exercising in hot weather. and some such theory may make” women look with kinder eves on worsted in_August. In the meantime. here's spring and intermediate weather, when one fears to be either too hot or too cool. The knitted frock should have its innings. So far they are cheap enough—sometimes less expensive than a homespun suit. Use Up Your Supplies. This is an excellent time to use up supplies on hand, for warm weather is coming, and certain food commodi- ties do not keep as well as they did when they were bought. Emphat cally any packages of cereals, ric macaroni or corn me quickly now a dried beans, should be used possible. If you have such commodi- ties on hand. plan to make use of one or more of them in every meal until they are gon; Canned fruits and vegetables should be used, too. Some canned goods can be kept over just as well until an- other season. But, after all, it is safer not to put any tinned or glassed goods to this test. Now that fresh vegetables and fruits can be bought at reasonable prices it is absurd to use those in cans. And to keep sup- plies on hand from one season to the next, even though they do keep, is to Keep capital tied up in an unneces- sary manner. ppose you start in this week using up commodities on hand. Tt will be interesting to see how little you need to spend for new materials. i Another advantage in using. up com- modities on hand at this time of the year is that this will give you a good Cchance to clean out your food con- tainers in line with general spring house-cleaning. This is the time of year when the housekeeper's supply closet should be at its low ebb. We have hardly begun yet to can new fruits and vegetables, and we should have used up almost all those of last season. 1t always shows bad management to come out at the end of the season with a great deal of canned goods on hand. It is a good idea, too, to use up such small commodities as gelatin, junket tablets, spices and season- ings. And although you cannot go to it and use up such things- as mace and red pepper, you should re- member that spices carried on hand deteriorate. Some housewives never keep any spices on hand for over a year. They buy in small quantities. A Dainty Dessert.

JESSIE LEITCH. A Little Girl's Croup Party. It was a day in early summer-—one of the days when the temptation to| be a gypsy, if only for a day, is fre- quently too strong to be resisted. In the big white house at the end of the village street a woman put down the electric iron she was using fiemly. | She went to the telephone and talked to the man in the ba street. He was her hus She then went into the back and summoned chubby sters who were rolling amid delions. She washed their f: tied sunbonnets on them. and f: ed them into clean gingham romper: two you for the two toddlers weretwins of exactly three, which is an ideal for gingham rompers. By this time the man in the bank had had time to lock his desk and to slance apolo- getically at the clock., and mention o the accountant that his wife needea him urgently. and that he might not was the return that afternoon.

The father, loosening Betty’s fright- ened, clinging fingers, remembered a spirit lamp in his gun cupboard, and brought it to the bedside, rigged up a stand, beneath the kettle. with the toaster, and lighted it. The steam blew in merry clouds from the ket- tle. The sick child had less difficult in breathing, and began to perspire profusely. In an hour peace had set- tled upon the little cottage by the lake, and little Betty was better. ‘And when daylight came, with a rain-washed day that smelt of roses, the little gypsying party started back a gypsy's life, and the man and wom- an smiled at each other beside their wood fire Then came a terrifying, strangling cough—from Betty's bed. Again it to town. Such is the joyousness of childhood. that every vestige of ill- ness had passed, and Betty had for- gotten all about her attack of croup. T Three Egg Suppers. Eggs are the housekeeper’s standby. Her family will enjoy the following suppers, in which they are offered in some out-of-the-ordinary ways: Egg in Tomato Cup Cocoa.

A Kirkman In homes where the vacuum cleaner is used daily, or even weekly, sweep- ! ing has been practically eliminated, cxcept of verandas and the Kitchen floor. But in other homes broom and carpet sweeper are still in use. Sweep- ing is good exercise, and need not be fatiguing, if done with a proper in- strument, in a room with windows well opened. A sweeping-cap is essential to a woman who has any regard for her hair. A good broom should be used, of corn without seeds, with a light handle, of a length convenient to the one who is to use it. The broom should be reversed at regular in- tervals, in sweeping, to give even wear. A broom should be hung, not stood in a corner, when not in' use. A new broom should be plunged into a pail of boiling water, and allowed to stand in it until it is cold. To avoid raising dust, one may either moisten the broom, and shake it almost dry before sweeping, or may scatter damp tea leaves or scraps of ‘damp newspaper ofer the rug. The latter way I8 preferable, wet broom is hard on the coiors of a rug, and, if too wet, maies mud With the dust instead of removing it. Carpet sweepers should be kept scrupulously clean, inside and out; emptied and wiped regularly after use, and pushed with a light pressure on the roller brushes, which’ other- down very quickly.

Cover the eggs with grated cheese and slip the potatoes back into the oven, on a pan, to bake until the eggs are set. New Deviled Eges. Rice Muffins Strawberries New Deviled Eggs.—Boil eggs hard. Cut them in half, across, and remove the yolks. Mash the yolks together in 2 bowl and mix with them an equal portion of canned sardines which have also been mashed. Season with salt and lemon juice to suit taste, and add a little melted butter. Then refill the cavities in the halved egg-whites, mounding up this yolk-sardine mix- ture, and not putting the halves to- gether again. Garnish these with parsley on a platter, and serve ocold. Rice Muffins.—Mix one cup of ocold boiled rice with one cup of sweet milk until no large lumps of the rice re- main. Then add one well beaten egg, one teaspoon sugar, half teaspoon salt | and one pint of flour sifted with two | teaspoons baking powder. Bake in buttered muffin rings in a hot oven Tea | from fifteen to twenty minutes. Here is another good egg recipe: Chived Eggs—Break one egg into a small ramekin, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and cover with chopped chives. Bake in a moderate oven until the egg s set, and serve at onoe. Veal Hearts With Bacon. ‘Take three veal hearts, trim and wash well, slice in uniform slices and roll in salted flour; fry four siices of bacon to a crisp, take out of the fat and put aside. Fry in the bacon fat a small sliced onion; when partially done put in the fla- vored slices of veal hearts and fry to a rich brown. Take a casserole, heated, and put the fried hearts in the bottom: add to the fat in the pan one cup of soup stock, one-half | minced pimento, one-half bay leaf and one teaspoonful of salt; pour this mixture over the veal hearts and cook Well covered for two hour: Five minutes before serving add the slices of bacon: Serve with small plain boiled potatoes and spinach.

Steep, cloely covered, for about half an hour. strain and_to one pint of the liquid add one-half package of gelatine that has been soaked in a little of the mint_juice.
