Alder and willow and elm, sassa- fras, maple and poplar—they are all bloom or soon will be. For all these and many more of the great host of our mative trees; it is Spring, and the time for unfolding of flower and leaf i3 at hand. But for one tree it is not Spring, nor ever will be again. Tho chestnut, once forest king, is dead. Mutely, its bleached kelcton pleads for our pity. No birds will ever nest agaln among its green leaves, nor squirrels forage upon its sweet nuts. Only the scavenger crow, with his love for dead, blasted tr to sit on the chestnut and his harsh wings as burnished as the sear trunks of these dead trees . Scarce a living American chestnut exists around Washington. Such few as are still half-alive are in the last stages of the dreadful blight that has swept the country. More 2 in than 2. vears ago the chestnut blight, ace dentally introduced from gin. got its start on Long Island and, spreading unchecked, has slain all in its path. | Not for lack of heroic efforts to save lit has the chestnut died. But the | disease, rpreading under the bark, is incurable, and it“is carried with in- exorabie swiftness. But as when an old man dies we look to his son, so may we 100k to the chinquapin, a dwarf chestnut | common in the District, whose nuts, small, are very sweet. Thoroughly blight resistant, the chinquapin is the | one consolation to us as we view, all | over the Maryland and Virginia hills, | the stark skeletons of the chestnut, Maple Meringue Pies. Take a cupful of rich maple syrup | or one-half a cupful of meple sugar and one-half a cupful of water boiled { ! together and cooled. Then add the heaten volks of two eggs, one-fourth teaspoonfyl of salt and one cupful of rich milk. Place in a double boiler and bring to a boil. Then stir in one blespoonful of cornstarch dissolved in a little cold milk. Cook for about | 10 minutes, stirring constantly. Half | a cupful of nut meats, chopped raisins | ay now be stirred in. Pour s mixture into a previously baked rust. Beat up the whites of the eggs | until stiff, sweetening with a_little | sugar. Place on a slow oven to brown | delicately on top. { duties {childhood. HE EVENING What Tomorrow Means to You BY MARY BLAKE. Pisces. “Friday the 13th” will s tims of ignorant superstition, but. it has no terrors for those who have more faith in the fundamental forces of nature than belief in the fatalistic qualitics of man-made days -and numerals. The planctary aspects of tomorrow, as it happens, are quite benign, and, although they do not en- courage excessive zeal or denote great material progress. they presage a condition of positiveness and reveal an urge to perform your customary with intelligence and con- scientiousness. The vibrations indi- cate that lite or artistic efforts will be exceptionally favored, and that, in addition, peace amd content- ment will prevail in the home circle. A boy that first sees the light to- morrow will be blessed with a strong constitution and enjoy exceptionally good heaith. He will not be addicteg to study, but disposed to forsake learning for the pleasure of outdoor sports and pastim He will have a strong character, but should be trained for something other than a sedentary occupation. A girl, how- ever, born tomorrow will not be physically strong, and will require assiduous care and attention during She will temperamentally be very amiable and have the “old- fashioned” craving for a home of her own and children. She will not be dominating, but will generally get her own way by persuasive arts rather than by forceful methods Those who celebrate their birth- days on that Sl it b aking, of simple character, indu trious, frugal and without any great ambitions. They are satisfied with life as they find it. and rarely, if ever. experience the urge to do or accom- plish anything out of the ordinary. They are truthful, sincere and loyal, atisfied to believe what others have before tl nd not much troubled with the = “wherefores” of life's problems.

A hearty meal should be top- ped. off with a very light des- sert, such as a gelatin pudding, custards or fruit Never serve a heavy dessert, such as suet pudding, with a heavy meal. Leave that for a lighter meal. If there are any baked beans left over after the Sunday breakfast, boil with plenty of water, a can of tomatoes and a small onion. Strain and you will have a delicious soup.

Fill the hole in the handle with the cement, then heat the steel of the handle and press it firmly into the cement. Linen towels are softer, but do not wear as long as soft cot- ton towels.

Noisiness goes hand in hand with bad breeding, and it really seems as if one of the things that mankind acquires in ieving civilization is a degree of silence, or at least control of noisi- ss. The man who wears creaky shoes or heels that thump cvery time he takes a step, who slams doors and bangs the furniture as be goes about is usually rot a well bred man.

HARLAND H. ALLEN. i Poiref Twill. Every woman knows the service- able poiret twill. It has for some time now enjoyed a large and well deserved vogue, and is still one of the most popular Worsted fabrics on the market. The name, which may have puzzled not a few shoppers, is for its famous creator, Paul Poiret of Paris. ‘What this fabric really is, is a spe- clal type of full-bodied worsted. Its speclal characteristics by which every woman recognizes it on the store counter, or when made up into gar- ments, are the peculiar twill of the face, the soft and kindly touch of the material and the dull, yet ar, ap- pearance of the surface. In poiret twill, the diagonal we: shows a steep angle on the face of the cloth and runs at a steep pitch, being what is called a “high angle twill"” Not all poiret twills look alike, however. There are some on the market with different interlacings, and with differently pitched angles, which give a consequent varlation in the appearance of e face. Most of these fabrics that will encounter, though, have sharply marked twills standing out clearly from another, and somewhat bold in character— considering their size. There are some that are fine and rather flat, but perhaps these, strictly speaking, should not be classed as poiret twills.| at all. As you know, worsted yarns are | not prepared in the way that woolen spun yarns are, although both are wool. In a worsted it is customary | to use wool of a relatively long. | smooth and non-crinkling character. | First this is carded, then it goes | through a combing process which | eliminates all the short, broken and | tangled fibers, and leaves behind only | the “longer fibers which lic straight parallel and trus to ome another Wool spun yarns, on the contrary made of the shorter and more crink- 1y and curly fibers, are rovgh and ir- regular. The result is that goods made from the former consist of yarns regular and smooth, more lus- trous and therefore have a smoother and harder faice. Unless the greatest care ha be takén in spinning and weaving a piece of poiret twill, tho careless work will be plainly apparent in the finished goods on the counter. Every- thing shows wp readily on the face of such material. The shopper should regard any irregular yarns, showing | thick or thin places, or havin - | e “aiubs” in them, as objectionable fea« tures. If there are pronounced “streaksy™ places in the cloth it is because soms of the threads are unduly slack or unduly tight, and since the beauty of the goods lies In the clear, clean twilled faco of it, such defects should not appear In a perfect piece. —— Caramel.
