Attractive sport costumes are taking pre-eminent place in the shops now that warm weather has turned our thoughts toward all forms of outdoor exercise. Of course, the materials most favored by fashion are being turned to the new use, so that bril- |liant silks, satins and crepes which | were developed into stunning evening creations in the winter are now scen as smart scmi-tailored skirts and blouses. Sweaters, cither of silk or wool, always form an important item in the sporting outfit. and the range for selection is especially wide this 1scason. However, the sweater Ccos- tume which has just been placed on display in some of the leading wown establishments will probably over- shadow the separate sweater in hopu- larity. It is much cooler and more con- venient to have sport skirt and sweater combined than otherwis: and then, too, it is the “dernier cri. A pretty model is sketched. There is l. foundation bodice of Quaker gray crepe de chine and over it a loosely fitting blouse of coral-colored silk crochet. This-has short kimono sleeves edged with gray and a rounded neck opening down in the front and fin- ished with gray crepe de chine piping. A narrow band of crepe also serves to I the work and bother of a coal fire to heat water in hot weather. sured of abundant hot water the You can be as- ‘| in paper cartons has bee charming and unusual one is illus- trated. The bodice is of taffeta and is cut so that it crosses at the front, forming a v neckline, and fastens at one side with a rose. A small corded inset at the obposiie side causes the bodice to fit quite tightly in basque fashion. The short sleeves are of white lace. as is the voluminous over- skirt. Th tands out over the hips and the cording is hidden by a nar- row ruffled edging of taffeta. A wide band of lustrous white satin ribbon circles the overskirt further down and a rose placed carelessly on one of the folds adds a dainty touch of color and corresponds with that on the bodice. The underskirt is of taffeta, slightly draped. The hat sketched is a dainty bonnet model of pale flesh pink georgette. A band of Alice blue velvet ribbon bo: ders the brim, one edge being s.wn to the georgette and the other re- maining loose.

If vour time is limited there is often wisdom in prepared food products, the number of which in present-day groceries is legion. But there is also wisdom and £ood Judgment in adding little individual touches to these prepared foods to add to their flavor or to disguise the fact that they are not homemade, The amount of prepared mayonnaise [$old in the grocery stores is constantly on the increase. Women who at first ing that they could detect e between homemade and prepared mavonnaise, are being won over to the sort that comes in bottles. It is quite possible to change the flavor %0 that no one would suspect that had not made your own. The addition of a little lemon juice is a good idea. especially if vou are using the mayon- naise on'a sweet salad, on bunana salad, pineapple salad or apple salad, for in- stance. Some people like the flavor of vinegar | better than lemon juice. The addition of a very little taragon vinegar adds distinctiven Thix goes well with fis salads—lobster, crab and other shell- fish. A little mace. mustard or onion juice might be advisable in making dif- ferent sorts of salad. The sort of cake that can be bought a great boon to many busy housewives. Some you do not have time to make but vou do have time to make icing or filling. ~ Then vou can buy the ready- made cake, split it in two. add the filling and then cover it with lcing and you have a cake that has all the earmarks of thé homemade sort. There are prepared cake flours, some of which require only the addition of water in order to make a batter that will make excellent cake. These are good, but if vou add milk in place of water. an extra egg or perhaps a little butter you have a cake richer in nutri- ment and mere flavorsome. Then, too, you may add flavoring extract to vary HOME ECONOMIC Kitchen, pantry, S. BY MRS.

A cookie is not as delicious as a slice of cake when eaten by itself. But a cookie is as good as a slice of cake when eaten with a dish of fresh or stewed fruit. What could be more delicious than one of the following combinations: A cookie and sweetened strawberries, a cookie and sweetened stewed rhu- barb, a cookie and stewed prunes, a cookie and apple sauce which has been sweetened and flavored with cinna- mon. a cookie with sliced and sweet- ened bananas and oranges?

In talking about the profile and the possible measures that might taken to improve it. we have em- phasized such things as changing the style of hair dressing so as to adapt it to the face, and keeping the skin fine and clear with color in the cheeks.
