woM Edible Caps of Fruit or Vegetables BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKERB. You may have heard the ditty about | early fall they are without rival in 1 certaln Jack Spratt and his wife who “licked the platter clean.” An- ther and more startling one might be written on the subject of t article today in which the “Spratt e the dishes themselves! It would 1ot require a palate for the eating of china either. The edible cups of EDIBLE CUPS AR AND FORM P ME MADE G PART which 1 delic will tell you are almost as ¢ as the things they contain, > meal at which they are used flavor and novelty, decora e and healthy nourishment. » cups for dainty menus are ome to the fastidious o seeks so to cater to the { her guests that it will lattering comment. For the hostess ippetite provoke their appeal. These delicious containers for well- seasoned foods are ‘of course made of some fruit or vegetable (usually the latter) from which the center has been removed and to which a light lor hearty salad mixture has been added. You ean easily imagine the colorful possibilities of such a manner of serving. The simplicity with which it can be accomplished is one of the assets much In its favor. Cucumber cups require no great culinary knowledge to prepare and may be said to be “tasty” in the truest sense of the word. Large cu cumbers are best to use. In order that the cups may be prettily notched when complete, cut tiny, lengthwise V-shaped pieces from the peeled surface. Then cut the cucumber crosswise in pieces about 1 inches long and remove the center or “heart” either before or after cutting. Dice them and mix with Russian dressing. Put the empty cups on lettuce leaves, two or three of them to a wartion, and fill with the dressed hearts. Lay a nasturtium upon each serving. These can be considered an edible part of the dish, or merely as a decoration. Tomato Cups. Tomato cups are among the most {attractive. Skin a large tomato by holding it on a fork over a flame until the skin cracks and blisters and can be removed easily. Chill tomato on ice. Cut in half.” Scoop out the |center. Mix it with mayonnaise or any preferred salad. chicken, vege- table, celery, etc. Fill cup and serve on cress. This makes a dish some what more hearty than the cucumber cup Tomato cups can be served as the main course to a luncheon. Other dishes to complete a menu in which no cooking would be required may | here be suggested, as grapefruit, po- tato chips and iced tea to be served with {t, and a gelatin dessert with sweet cpackers to follow. Beets in Like Manner. New beets are a welcome part of the Summer table. Some which have been left over from a previous meal {may be used for edible beet cups if |left whole. Cut a slice off the top of the whole beet. Remove the center, |leaving a cup about one-half to three quarters inch thick. Fill with salad made of diced sweet pepper, cucum ber, carrots, mixed with mayonnaise. Sprinkle the top lightly with grated Parmesan cheese. Tempting Fruit Dish. | Cold baked apples and cream are a favorite dish with many. They may be made « “‘company dessert” if served as an edible cup. Scoop some of the | center from the apple before cooking. Fill with berries, nuts and a few raising for sweetening. Serve cold | with whipped cream into which mar- aschino cherries have been cut. Our Children—By Angelo Patri Father's Turn. Tor th little cha He can play with them for a few minutes, carry them to bed, tell them little story, toss a ball for a brief minute, but there it ends. Mother does of the trafning when the children are tiny. But when they begin to walk, fath- er can do more and he ought to begin. A with father, even though it e just down to the gate and back, is something that counts. As the legs tronger and the eager eves and s more receptive, the walks are gthened and the things to be seen grow more complex and interesting. Soon Sat afternoon or Sunday becomes fa v, or father's turn at edu ing the children. He t them to the docks to see the shi g there and tells stories about them and the men who are man- ning them, the goods they are carry- ing and the countries to which they go. He takes them to the museums and to the zoo and the flower gardens. They must know the animals by sight and by name. They must see the flowers growing and call them by name. The big cities have wonderful opportunities for father’s teaching. There are the Saturday afternoon concerts to which children ought to he taken. They are planned for that purpose. An education in music of this description costs little and be- comes a veritable treasure in later vears. In these days of motors and airplanes our days are too heavily ocaded with the concerns of the job of making a living.

Then Chatterer ap- peared, and this time Buster saw vhat it was that Chatterer was carry- ing mushroom!" exclaimed Buster under his Weath. “Now what i that | ed-footed geamp doing with those wshrooms?” He waited until Chat- erer %md ciimbed, left the mushroom «nd gone for another. Then he quiet- moved over where he could look up that tree. At once he discovered ushrooms wedged into the forks of hat tree, and he knew that they were mt there to dry. Buster chuckled to imeelf. That scamp is laying up a store of . =ood food for the Winter,” said Bus- er. “I won't bother him now, for I am not hungry; besides, there is plemty of other good food. But I'll iust keep this tree in mind. Yes, sir, 1"l just keep this tree in mind. About the time I'm getting ready to go to first three years father has | to help with the children. | | pleasanter channels | Music is such a gift. Church service is part of a child's education. I would not take him to | ehurch until he was old enough to sit | still and listen quietly.

And | then it is father's proud privilege to |introduce him there. Perhaps if | tather stops to remember the day he marched down the aisle with this child's mother on his arm he will be somewhat surer of his duty here. You can't expect a child to go to church and follow its teaching if his father is somewhere else enjoying | himself better. The fact that father works all week does not excuse him from taking his, turn with the children at church serv- fce or excursion or visit, as the time and the occasion may indicate.

They will be even better eating ghen than they are now, and they'll be right here walting for me when other food is hard to find. Yes, sir, T'll keep this tree in mind for my last meal before I go to sleep. This is one of the best ideas I ever had. Usually I have trouble in get. ting that last meal, and usually it doesn’t amount to much. With my stomach full of nice, dry, sweet, de- lcious mushrooms. ought to sleep well. T hope Chatterer finds ever and ever so many more. I'll keep an eye on him from now on.” Now Buster was so interested in his day dreams that he quite forgot he was standing in plain sight staring up in that tree. Back came Chatterer, and the first thing he saw was Bus. ter staring up in that tree. Chatterer forgot he had a mushroom in his mouth. He opened it to scold Bus. ter and call him bad names, and, of course, down fell the mushroom. Then ‘how his tongue flew! He blamed Bus- ter because he had dropped the mush- room. Buster said nothing, but shuffled over to the mushroom Chatterer had dropped, picked it up, ate- it, and shuffled away qulte as much as if no person as Chatterer the Red Squirrel |existed. Chatterer scolded until Bus- ter was out of sight. Then he stopped | seolding as abruptly as he had begun. A thought had popped into his head. What if Buster Bear had seen all those mushrooms he had stored up in that tree? Chatterer sighed. It was a deep, heavy sigh. “I must move them,” sald Ke. “It's a big iob, but I must'move every one of those mushrooms.. I never would | have another easy moment knowing that Buster Bear knows where they are. It is a great pity that I can't put them away in my storehouse, but they would rot there. I've tried it before and I know.” Down scampered Chatterer and away he ran to make sure that Bus- ter Bear had really gone away. It didn’t take him long to find that Bus- ter really had. Then Chatterer raced about through the tree tops, jumping from tree to tree, until finally he found one that suited him. He could get to it from the trees where the mushrooms were without ever going down to the ground. He wasted no time. He moved all those mushrooms. He dldn’t leave one in that tres where Buster Bear had found them. “There,” said Chatterer, as he put the last mushroom in place. “If that fellow is thinking of ng my mushrooms he’ll have to think again.” (Copyright. 1925, by T.

I never saw a little girl eat so much curds and whey in all my life. It's a wonder you didn't burst.” “Oh,” squealed Mollie, “that's just what I want now. Oh, Mother, couldn't T have a bowl of your good curds and whey? Really, it is the best thing there ever was. If I were a queen I shouldn't want to sit on a throne and feast upon strawberries, sugar and cream. I'd lots rather sit on a tuffet and eat your curds and whey. It is food fit for a queen, or a king, too!” This pretty dress should be a pale lavender. Color the roses on the head band and the bows on her shoulders pink. (Covyright. 1925.) What TomorrowMeans to You BY MARY BLAKE. Virgo. Tomorrow's planetary aspects are just as adverse as those of teday are favorable. They indicate sluggishness, pessimism and, perhaps, a general air of indifference to the daily monotonous | obligations of dfity. This lassitude must be fought by the ald of conce tration and will power. It would, how- | ever, be wise not to enter into any ! commitments, _either financial or | moral. During such adverse influ-| ences it would be wise to refrain from the execution of any contracts or | azreements. Much care must be ex ercised in all social relationships, as a tendency will be felt toward disagree- | ments and argumentativeness. This looks like a black-letter day, but the outcome all depends on individualism and how much of & hold you have on yourself. A girl born tomorrow will, according to the signs, enjoy a particularly healthful girlhood and promises, with ordinary care, to materialize into per. fect womanhood. A boy, on the other hand, will be subject to minor illnesses during the infantile period, suffer a rather serious allment during adoles- | cence and only attain physical nor-| malcy some considerable time after | reaching his majority. In character | and disposition they will be very simi lar. They will both be studious, pre- ferring books to outdoor sports. They will be introspective and thinkers. never willing to accept unchallenged the dictum of others. They will, in their own way, derive from life and radiate a great deal of happiness. 1 If tomorrow is your birthday you are largely a creature of impulse, a vic tim of emotion and a slave to intui- tion. You rarely, it ever, take the time to think of what you should either say or do and are guided by your own mo- mentary wishes, regardless of the de- sires of others. You are never gulded by experience and so far as effects go it neyer serves you as a teacher. You are not communicative, in spite of your impulsive nature, and if you suspect that any one is interested in trying to get from you any informa- tion you can be most baffling. You have great ambitions, but are not very successful. You jump to con- clusions too quickly. You are resource- ful, fond of your home and capable of a great and enduring love. | MODE MINIATURES Awsy With Standard Dress for ‘Women! Outlawed |DorothyDix}e The pirate hat {s perhaps the most outstanding style for . The Amer- ican versions which now promenade Fifth avenue in conspiéuous numbers took their inspiration from a Paris original by Lewis, and are worn in that gay fashion city by debutantes and matrons alike. For this off-the- face model, with a certain spirit and dash of line suggesting its name, is generally becoming. However, it should not be considered by the woman who finds it necessary to wear glasses on the street. This type of hat accentuates the fact, while ‘uns ‘with u'n':;ll l\ll:ndu.:;‘m nice- y lessens promin: MARGETTE. No Amount of Propaganda Will Convert Women to Sensible, Standardized Dress, for It Would Rob Them of Their Chief Joy in Life. (OME of the really serious thinkers of the feminine sex are advocating the. adoption by women of a standardized dress on the ground that it would save money, time, thought and effort, and leave them free for higher things. Undoubtedly, most of women's brains are cut on the blas and frifled in the middle, and they give about threefourths of their thoughts and ef- forts’ and ambition to thelr clothes. Furthermore, the average woman s far more concerned about the state of her wardrobe than she is about the state of her immortal soul, and she yearns far more after an imported frock than she does for righteousness. And this being the case, no amount of propaganda is going to convert her from the error of her ways and make her give up her frills and fur- belows for a costume that is just exactly like every other woman's costume, and whose only merit is that it 18 a decent garment that wears well and doesn't show dirt. Nor will the arguments in favor of the standardized dress appeal to her. Suppose it does save money? What's the good of money if you can't buy with it the chiffons that enhance a woman's beauty? Suppose it does save time? What do you want with more time If you.can't spend it in the delirious pastime of shopping? Suppose it does save thought? What mental effort so engrossing and fascinating as that of planning ravishing new cpstumes that will make men rubber and other women green with envy? Suppose it does save effort? Why, women rise from sick beds and go down town when Felice telephones that she has got in a new importation of gowns straight from Paris! e s e 0. WOMAN will reject the standardized dress idea not only because it would rob life of its chief joy for them and take away from them a sport of which they never tire and out of which they never fail get a kick, but because they find in dress their real medium of self-expression. ‘Woman thinks in groups, so far as her politics, and her religion, and her culture go, but her clothes are her own. They represent her taste. They symbolize her personality, and no power on earth is going to make her give up her individuality and be as like every other woman as peas in a pod. Every man may buy a uniform exactly similar to that of every other man in his age, class and station, but not Sister Sue. She is golng to be something different and express the magenta longings of her soul in her hat if she wants to. is what makes it possible for women to size up each other at a glance. All that a woman needs in order to psychoanalyze a sister woman is a passing glance at her clothes. If her dress is neat and trim, with no frivolous excretions or fluffy protuberances, she knows that the wearer has a tailor-made soul: that she runs her house on a budget; is a conservative in politics, orthodox in religion and that everything in her linen closet is in neat labeled packages. This On the other hand, if a woman runs to beads, and laces, and dangling ends, and tags: if she wears a mauve chiffon when she should have on blue serge; if her frocks are mussy and look as if they needed a visit to the cleaner and presser, no feminine observer needs to be told that she is a woman who lacks judgment and practicality: that she is a woman who yields to the Impulse of the moment and does the thing she wants to do, whether it is the Wise thing to do or not; and that she is a thriftless and sloppy house- keeper, who lets her servants sieal from her and her children run over her. PR ND when women see an old woman with flapper clothes on, or a fat woman dressed like a slim young debutante, or a living skelefon making an anatomical display of her bones, they “Ah, here’s colossal vanity You can feed her on fulsome flattery with a shovel and thereby work her ¥ sh g = |Br:xrx’l\lvirh all women dressed alike, their individuality would be sub merged into the common mass of femininity.

How to furnish the small apartment attractively and inexpensively is a problem confronting many young couples just now. At this season of the vear, with Winter the impuise to feather e nest of their own overtakes the hap They would be as dull and drab and uninteresting as strange men, whom you have to know well before you know whether you want to Know them at all or not. Whereas, the moment you observe a woman's clothes you know whether you want to pursue her acquaintance. Another objection to the standardized clothes for women is that it will wipe 80 much beauty out of a world that has none to spare. You never can realize how much women's gay clothes do to brighten and cheer things up until you lock down upon a big women's banquet and a bt men’s banquet. The women's banquet will be like a flower garden, masses of lovely color, or flashing jewels, or Soft, alluring fabrics. The men’s banquet will be a hideous picture in hard black and white, with blobs of bald heads making the high lights. Probably the men are just as good-looking as the women, but the women have about them the glamour of their gay clothes. They camouflage what- ever defects their possessors may have, and it will be a sad day if women are ever idiotic enough to cast away the help of the dressmaker and the milliner, and be as homely a8 nature made them. And, after all, since it is woman’s business to marry and bear children, and thus carry on the torch of life, what mere important duty has she than to adorn herself and make herself desirable in the eyes of men? You may be sure of this, that there will be very few brides if we have standard- ized dress DOROTHY DIX. (Copyright, 1926.) The Daily Cross-Word Puzzle ht, i | i i | | | | | 17.

And then suddenly comes the slump—the dull days when there are no phones calls—when the living room remains empty every evening—when the formerly ardent admirers are seen out with other girls, but show no sign of their former interest in the poor deserted belie. And she thinks the end of the world has come. She decides that her gay days are over—that she is permanently on the shel. That is, she indulges in these foolish fancies, unless she’'s old enough and experienced enough to know that these slumps occur in the most successful careers.
