WOMAN’S PAGE. ASHIONS of 1880 seem to be coming more and more into prominence as the season ad- X vances, and it looks as though they are going to offer some Inter- esting compejition to the Egyptian modes. There are two distinctive characteristics of the period, either of which will identify a gown as be- YOUTHFUIL. _DINN TYELLOW TAFF AND BUSTLED. iR A, GOWN OF longing in the 1880 aroup.

The bodice s fitted to the figure In basque fashion, with corded seams at each side, so that the soft material is crushed in folds. An odd finish, which takes the place of a girdle, is effected by turning up the lower part several inches, like a cuff. The skirt 1s long and narrow, and at the bac the all-important bustle. It consists of one large puff of yellow taffetu. from which hangs a trailing end. cut so that It falls in a zraceful spival cascade.

The most interest- ing feature of the frock, however, is its trimming of ribbon tabs in blue and gray tones.

When Jumper the Hare darted in at the open door of Farmer Brown's sugar house he gave no thought to what might be inside.

Even had Farmer Brown's Boy not been there, Reddy would have hesitated to go into that house. You see Reddy is always suspecting a trap. So great was' Jumper's fear of Reddy that he ran right over the feet of Farmer Brown's Boy without even knowing it. It wasn't until he had crouched in the darkest corner that he saw Farmer Brown's Boy at yall. Then his heart jumped right up in his throat. Anyway, that is the way it seemed.

He went about his work in the little sugar house just as if Jumper were not there. He took great care not to go near that corner in which Jumper was crouch- ing. He took care to make no sud- den movements. As he worked he whistled softly. He seldom looked at Jumper, and when he did it was merely to glance that way.

No, indeed, he didn't move. He was too wise to do that. As his fright grew less, hope grew greater. Perhaps that door would be opened again, and he would have a chance to slip out.

B EAUTY CHATS By Edna Calorie Discoveries. The best way to understand the subject of sclentific dieting where calories must be taken as & measure of food and where the various food chemicals must be understood is to consider the human body as an en- gine. An engine burns fuel and the body burns food. A certain amount of fuel fed Into an engine will make that engine capable of a certaln amount of energy, and so it is with the human bhody Holt, the children’s speci found experiments th. i needs 100 ¢ pounds time | calorles for weights, and tha fully grown he nced nly 44 calories for this amount. This is, of urse, because he is substituting new tissue for old and building additional tissue until he is fully grown. After that there is only substitution. The sclentists a century or more ago were so pleased at discovering that the average need of a man is 2,700 calorles a day, and at discov- ering the caloric alue of certain foods that they kept strictly to the analogy between the human body and the engine. An engine will run if given a sufficient quantity of one sort of fuel, but the human hody needs a mixture of fuel.

This group of family names comes from a language which but a few gen- erations ago finally became extinct. This language is Cornish, and perhaps better described as a dialect of the Cymbric branch of Celtic, falling with- in the same classification ag Welsh and the ancient speech of the Bretons in northwestern France, which also has died out. Unlike the family names of the Gaelic Celts, the Irish and the High- {1and Scottish, which are almost exclu- isively mere perpetuations of clan { names, the Welsh and the Cornish have | developed many family names from oc- { ¢ pations and from the names of local- ities. This group of nanies appears to have { been developed out of the Cymric word | for farmer or plowman, “tiac,” though i this origin has not been established { entirely beyond doubt. One ‘thing is certain, however, from various governmental and tax records, families of this name, or branches of the same family, have from a very re- mote period been located in Cornwall, and have been landholders. In the absence of more definite evi- dence to the contrary. the probability that these names originated from the descriptive “tlac” or “farmer,” must be accepted. —_— Chicken With Creole Sauce. Clean and prepare the chicken as for frying. Roll the pieces in flour and place in a heated baking pan, which has been well greased with three tablespoonfuls of melted but- ter. Sprinkle well with salt and pour one-half a cupful of cream over all. Cover, place in a hot oven, and bake until tender. When done, remove the cover and let the pan remain in the oven until the pieces are nicely biowned. Serve with creole sauce. 4 | ! | | !
