We are apt to spend weeks ‘in ranging our clothes for each seascn and regard hats as an after-thought. something that can Qe picked up at a small price after the heavy work has been done. Women may be divided into two classes when they become buyers of apparel. One class regards the. hat as an accessory, the other class re- gards .the hat first and the gown afterward. There are women who have the reputation of being continually well dressed, who adhere to the latter view. They buy their hats from their pet milliners when the season starts. They arrange a morning for the work and permit no interruptions until it is finished. The head coverings secured | and assured, they go to the dress- makers to inspect frocks.

Chicken salad requires no great amount of skill in the making, and| is one of the best things for the ama- tour cook to select for party or sup- per refreshments because it is al- ways sure to come out well, provided g00d ingredients are used, and it is almost universally liked. Chicgen salad is not inexpensive, and after you have made it, estimat- ing the price, you do not marvel so greatly at the restaurant that puts it down on its bill of fare for a dol lar and a quarter a portion. Ho ' ever, from two chickens costing less than $5, you can get two dozen good portions. Of course you must con- sider that you will probably’ use 501 cents worth of mayonnaise, or more, | and that you will need celery, lettuce | and other ingredients. But don't for. l’ Zet that.when you make chicke: salad in your home you have not only the stock in which the chicken is cooked and from which you can make excellent soup and gravy. but vou have the giblets, which make de- licious sandwiches.
