You might have thought that in a summer that has had excessive heat the thin, light hat would have remained a favorite through dog days. i % o LARGE YELLOW DAISIES ARE PLACED ON THIS BLACK VEL VET HAT IN A WAY THAT MAKE:! 'll;‘figéd SEEM TO ENCIRCLE THE But apparently weather has nothing to do with it. Organdy hats are still worn, but they are lined with velvet; straw hats are admired, especially 8o if they are faced with felt. times the felt hat is faced with straw. There are all sorts of combinations— combinations which prevent the hats from being strictly either summer kats or winter hats, as we look at the matter. But in this country we seem to have been more directly influenced by the thermometer. Of late years the vogue for wearing velvet on your =Y/ouse Stuffed Haddock Dinner. The average housekeeper has one fish dinner a week Friday. But as fish is cheaper than meat, it is ex- cellent economy to have two fish din- ners a week. Fish may become just as popular as meat on the home table if it Is cooked deliciously. The follow- ing way of baking haddock is rather a fussy way, but time and trouble are always economy's substitites wish to save money yet have things just as palatable, we muse willingly expend a little extra time. Try the following dinner menu on your famil; Baked Stuffed Haddock a la Pletro.— Potato Cake au Gratin Green Peas Coftee Peach Pie Baked Stuffed Haddock a la Pietro: Buy a 3%-pound haddock (this will cost somewhere around 8 cents a pound—thus making the entire dish about 30 cents) and have your fish man clean it, remove head and tail, and split it open on the under side. One hour before you wish to serve it take it from the refrigerator and cut the two “filets”—that is, the two fleshy sides of the fish—away from the long strip of small bones which form the ribs of the fish near the head, and which resemble a feather at the tail end; the ribs and tis long tail-strip of bones (which run down the inside of the fish) will be left in on solid bony structure when you have cut away the flesh from each side. Now grease a ing-pan, place one of the two “fllets” in the bottom, sprinkle this long plece of flesh with salt and pepper, and place upon it the following stuffing: Onion-Potato Stufing for Baked Haddock—Have ready three large boiled and mashed potatoes mixed Py tas til light brown in a generous lump of butter; add salt and black pepper 1 it individual liking. This should be spread on that side of the filet ‘which was next to the bone; the stuf- fing should stand about an inch high.

Slit a slip-over frock down the back from the meck to several inches be- low the waistline. Cut away a piece two and a half inches at the top, nar- rowing down to two inches at the bottom. Inlay a strip of embroidered or brocaded ribbon. Make a slit two and @ half inches wide one inch be- low the bottom of the inlay. But- tonhole the slit or pipe it to match the finish of the upper part of the slit. Bring the end of the ribbon through the slit. Finish with two loops and two ends. A back-trimmed frock {s smart even for grown-up sister. (Copyright, 1921) Like the three little shells which the followers of the circus used to manipulate for the benefit of the bet- ting public, designers;are juggling three different kinds of trimmings for the fall hats. These are roughly divided into . metallized . ostrich plumes, flowers and foliage, and col- ored quilts. There are, of course, numberless other decorations, such as cellophane and leather appliques, but these are regarded as novelties rather than standard effects. For the dress hat, the metalized plumes are eminently suited, their softness making them available for shower arrangements. The new fuschia tones are used in the flower d [foliage trimmings, large oak leave being splotched with violet tones and autumn reds.

A Kirkman Chill] head in midsummer and straw and flowars right after Christmas has not been one of the foibles of the women who are looked upon as leaders of fashion. 80 we let Paris get the lead of us in hat fashions quite willingly. If you need a new hat in August you are wise to select one of some sum- mer fabric. There will still be eight weeks more that it can give service, for American women scldom take to autumn millinery until they come to town after their summer holiday, and the tendency now is to stay away through Sepiember. Meanwhile we can watch with in- terest what the French women are doing, and gat good ideas for what we shall select as cooler weather comes. The fashions of every season could be written in terms of colors, and this summer both in France and among well dressed women herc, tones espe- clally in evidence have been black and white and combinations of black and white, together with the whole range of violet shades. Before we began to feel the strong tug toward violet here, yellows were in very good repute. You always found them well represented among the younger women. Now. that we have all felt the lure of violet as sent out by French dress centers we would do well to remember yellow. It has been remarked that whil: the very obvious thing among fashion- able women in France was to wear mauve and_deeper violet hues, the woman with very good taste wore yellow, yellow with black preferably. And_this combination carr.es an alr of distinction that would be. impos- bje had all France taken it up. A1l this by way of explaining the hat in the sketch today. It is vel- vet, because French women still feel a satisfaction in_ wedring warm hats in midsummer. It is yellow, because the woman who selected it chose not to be in the procession of those who have worn nothing but black, black and white and violet tones for weeks. 1 liquor in the pan. Then remove it trom the oven, spread on top of the stuffed fish a layer of bread crumbs moistened with melted butter, and slip the pan back into the oven until the crumbs are brown. Serve hot, with the following: Egg Sauce.—Make one cup of plain white sauce and add to it one hard- boiled egg finely minced. (I have repeatedly given a white sauce regipe in this column, but if any one has missed it, 1 will gladly send it upon Teceipt of stamped, self-addressed en- velope.) Potato Cake au Gratin—Boil nine large potatoes until tender, then mash them, season with salt, pepper and butter, and add one beaten egg. Form_this mixture into a mound in an oblong glass baking dish, and bake forty minutes in a good oven, then re- move from oven cover with finely chopped American cheese, and slip dish back into oven for cheese to melt. Serve at once. The 0ld Gardener Says: ’{ This is a good time to feed the rose bushes so that they will de- velop enough vigor and strength to carry them through the win- ter months.

ELIZABETH KENT. 1 Three Play Needs. It play is to do more than pass laway the time for children; if it is! | to give them the development we de- Bre for the improvement of their lives and the life of the race, three things must be considered in connec- tion with it. First, there must be space large cnough given to the children {10 run in. The pity of city life is the | lack of such space, which parks and playgrounds must supply. ~The pity | of country life is that such space is everywhere to be had and hardly anywhere put to good use. Second, there must be organization to make ay interesting and growth pro- ducing. Games, the great socializ- ing factor of play, aps not known | instinctively; they have to be learn- rned, taught. A group will play base ball with very eaching, but some they mus use the muscles of the trunk and »rms as well as of the legs. —We jave two sets of muscles, the funda- mental, or large muscles of the trunk, arms and legs, and the ac- cessory, or small muscles of the fingers, and speech. The former are the first to come, both in the race and in the child, and the last to go with the coming of old age, paraly- sis, or any progressive decay of the nervous system. The second are the to_come, the first to go, and in- volve delicate co-ordinations. These are, however, the most in use in mod- ern life, and involve severe mervous strain. It costs many times the nerv- ous effort to write one’s name than it costs to walk across the floor. Ob- i v children’s play should de- velop and train the fundamental muscles first, to give nervous stabil- ity and release the accessory mus- cles from strain.

It is essential for normal nutrition and growth. Babies are young anjmals, only not quite so well cared forias are most young animals. The fat of milk or butter is rich in vitamins, while pig fat is poor in vita- mins. Perhaps the nature of the diet of the cow and the pig accounts for this difference. The cow's feed con- sists largely of grass, the leafy vege- tables, the whole cereals—each of which items is rich in vitamins. The hog's feed consists largely of items not rich in vitamins. From some re- cent experiments of English physiolo- gists there is reason to think that if the hog is fed upon grass the lard contain vitamins. Ordinarily, as we know, lard and oleomargarin ar: poor in vitamins, whereas butter, fat of egg-yolk, and even the abd nal fat of cattle (which is use some brands of oleomargarin) rich in vitamins. These observations go to show that| the character of the diet influences the store of vitamins In the bodv.
