One tires of it, one dis- cards it, one falls back upon it. It was banished as a coat suit from the wardrobe of the smart set through a * caprice on the part of the tailors; it had %o many rivals as a one-piece frock that it sunk beneath the waters of high The dressmakers were not quite pleased with this turn of events, 50 they concocted a series of blue serge gowns which made their predecessors look like poor relations. These new o ones were trimmed with sequins, now-[ ers, gold braid, even metallic lace. Some of the frocks looked as though they were intended to be worn on gala occasions. It would be impossible to have a proper knowledge of the suita- biltty of clothes and wear such a frock out shopping at 11 o'clock in the morn- ing. They are worn to afternoon dances, to luxurious luncheons. The average rds them with indifference. ¥ n nothing in her scheme of life. Thus she argued: if a blue serge was not to he worn as a_knock-about costume, very well, she would accept homespun. woollen jersey, Canton crepe. She would go with the crowd. She would aceept its verdict. This philosophy went all through spring days. When actual summer ar- rived the ge woman turned to extra thin serge for days that were dusty, for shopping in the streets of big citics, . for all cool for motoring and train She_had tried but_ her knowledge and its lovable qualities 1in to it. rs in one-piece frocks not as demure as they suits of it that are of thin sergc inclined her She now appe of it that i were, but she ha as plain those worn by her men folk. -piece slip-over frbck of blue hioned with exaggerated sim- plicity, is not a favorite. It is among the commonplace clothes. The average woman has accepted the fashion of the Smart set to ornament blue serge in a frock and leave it unadorned in a suit. An odd distinction, but one that carries weight. The sketch shows a one-piece frock of serge worn in the afternoon outside the streets of a city. It has a white organdy vest and collar, also broad ruffles in long sleeves. There is a loose oriental girdle finished with long white t: in front. It appears that the one place at which the cannot be tied is in the back: tra placed it there for centurie: action displaces it. We took up the oriental custom of knotting our girdles at the sides. Now we twist them around to the front and draw attention to the fact through the brilliancy of the ornamental streamers | which hang from the belt. Lfficient Removing Stains, Scratches and Dents From Mahogany. Last week I dealt with the subject of cleaning and polishing mahogany. To- day I am going to take up the subject of removing stains, scratches and derits from this wood. Thej white stain quently seen. These are made either from setting a hot dish on a mahogany surface, or from spilling upon it some- thing containing alcohol. If this white stain comes from a hot dish it may be removed, simply rubbing some butter or hot milk however, some time has clupsed since the hot dish made the stain, then_apply Kerosene oil and tur- pentine, mixed. If perfumery, or some other liquid containing alcohol, has been illed on Jmahogany, apply a little il. Another way of removing white stains, is to hold a slightly heated iron 6ver the stain, thus softening the varnish. Then rub the stain with an oily cloth. If the surface is roughened as woll as stained white, rub it very kenuy with the finest emery paper, dust off. then polish with one pint of paraffin oil and one-half pint of turpentine well shaken together in a bottle. Other stains sometimes made on ma- hégany are the following: Punch or lemonade stains, which should be wiped off at once with a cloth dipped in warm water; finger marks, which may be removed by a cloth wet with very weak vinegar; grease stains, which may be removed with hot water and soap (but if the wood is also scratched, do not apply water, as the water will soak Into is that most fre- upon it.

Whipped sour cream is often added to may- onnaise salad dressing for fruit salads. No housewife needs to be told that good gingerbread can be made with sour milk, s well as corn breads of various kinds. In most recipes where sour milk is used as a leaven with soda, fewer eggs are called for. Very good pancakes and cornbread can be made with sour milk, omitting eggs entirely. Farmers' bulletin 565, Corn Meal as a Food and Ways of Using It, gives no less than nine recipes calling [for sour milk. Among them is this easy way of making Boston brown bread: derivative salts, giving it the taste of sparkling lem- onade.
