FEATURES VENING STAR, WASHINGTON, Felt and Straw Combined in Hats BY MARY MARSHALL. The question of choosing between felt or straw for the little tailored or sport hat is easily answered by se- lecting one of the new little bénnets that combine straw and felt—usually in the same shade. The difference in and texture of these two gives sufficient contrast RED HAT COMBI FELT. STRAW AND even when in exactly matching shades, Felt hats are so exactly suitable for the present, mode that women persist in wearing them, despite the warning that they cause loss of hair and, to- gether with the modern bob, will bring on baldn The combination felt and straw hat usually consists of a felt shape trim- med with str But sometimes the order is reversed, and a fine straw shape will have applications of felt, or sometimes of velvet. The sketch shows a straw shape of one of the new red shades with matching trim- ming cut from felt. So far nothing has come to chal- lenge the position of the felt hat. Now word comes from London that a tweed hat has gained instant approval among certain smartly dressed women there an_accessory to the tweed sport suit. These hats are described as being “cut like men’s wide-visored caps—with a narrow fold of the ma- the back reminiscent of Jackie Coogan's cap in ‘Kid.’ ‘Whether you like it or not, there is no gainsaying the fact that the viola shades are fashion’s favorites for the season. To be sure, certain fuchsla shades have been produced so commonly that we all grew weary of the hats of this shade. But by offering slightly different shades of the viola tones the smart milliners have persuaded their customers not to abandon this range. (Copyright, 1925.) Delicate Veal. Americans do not make the most of veal. Many persons profess not to like it merely because they have never eaten it in appetizing dishes. There are many ways of using it to make delicious dishes for evening or after- refreshments or for other “party” occasions. It is not a new trick to substitute veal for part of the chicken in making chicken salad, and a very nice salad, can be made by using veal cut into cubes, with mayonnaise and celery on lettuce with no chicken whatever, though this should be called veal salad. It is very much less expensive and less trouble to make than chicken because of the ease with which the veal can be cut up. A very from veal, noon nice mince can be made ham and mushrooms, to | use in pastry cups for afternoon or evening refreshments or for a luncheon. Use equal quantities of cold veal and cold ham cut in dice Put strong meat stock in top of double boiler, allowing about a cup to two cups of the meat. Add the meat and when thoroughly heated thicken by a teaspoon or more of cornstarch blended in a little cold water. Add cooked fresh or canned mushrooms., allowing a half cup to every two cups of meat and cook for two or three minutes. Add a little lemon juice, pepper, salt and a bit of meat sauce.

BUENOS ATRES, Argentina, March 11.—Why this country of Argentina should be called “The Argentine” by us North Americans, 1 don’t know. The word “Argentine” doesn’t mean anything, but the word “Argentina”— pronounced “Ar-hen-tee-na,” softly— means “silvery.” It was so called by the Spaniard who discovered the country and was struck by the silvery sheen that pervaded the landscape. He also named the river, which we common- ly call “The River Plate,” for the same reason. The Rio de La Plata means “The River of Silver.’ I have often wondeted why different nationalities presumed to improve on the native and correct name of a plac Rome, for instance. Why should we English speaking peoples call it that? The Germans write it “Rom.” The Poles and Slaves say “Rim.” Why not write it and pronounce it the correct way, Roma, as the Italians do. But back to the pampas. Here we go sliding across the great green and brown plain to Buenos Alres. It is the straightest railroad in the world. There is one stretch of 175 | miles without the slightest deviation. { I was told in Mendoza last night | e I changed trains, that the ride | across the Pampas would be dirty and dreary. | By the Mendoza little city, wut off from way, a nge Although it is s the Pacific by the towering Andes 650 miles of pampas lie between it and the Atlantic, it was founded and flour- ishing 50 years before the first settle ment in the United taes.

This freshens them up wondcrfull When a house is being done over paint not infrequently is spilled on doorsteps and it is sometimes very difficult to re move it. Make a strong solu tion of potash and wash the steps, simply leaving the solu- tion to soak in. In a short time the paint will become soft and can then be washed off with soap and water. Then use-cold water. Faint which has been left on for some time will yield to this treatment. A teaspoon of vinegar added to homemade sirup will keep it from candying after it stands.
