ATLY FASHION SERVIC) BIAS STRIPES IN SILK i S .;. | The newest contribution to the silk designs is the Bayadre stripes which run on the bias. These are used for trimming and for whole frocks. They are striking, yet in the midst of the fashions for oriental figurations are no more than is to be expected, The smartly dressed woman may wear them without the least trepida- tion that they will make her . con- spicuous.

True, she had no idea of the “oder man's"” identity, but I wondered how long it would be before her quick- witted cunning would worm the secret from stolid Jim, There was but one | thing to be done, however, if T were | to save my face, Chinese fashion, and I did it “I am not asking for your opinion, | Katie,” I said icily. “That is ,of ecourse, your own affair. But I will| tell you again, now that in relating | this story, vou are to say no word of Jim's being bound, or of any other man besides the bootlegger.

I no tell.” Relieved at her decision, I hurried back to the living room and bent over Junior ensconced on a couch near the fire. He was sleeping sound- 1y, breathing regularly, and apparent- ly suffered no harm from his esca- pade., “I think he's perfectly all right,” Katherine's voice was comforting, her eyes reassuring.

In winter, Junior at night is ensconced in a sleeping suit of wool, which makes him look like an adorable Eskimo. This insures him against: taking cold if he does kick off his coverings, a proceeding in which he almost never indulges, be- they are light, though wholly of wool, and a window is always wide open in his room, making certain that " though he is warm, he is never over- heated. My mother-in-law’'s window would, I knew, have but a tiny crack through which the winter air could come in, and her blankets and quilts would be s0 heavy that Junior would be uncom- fertably warm. But the weight of an experienced grandmother's opinion is a hard thing to combat, especially in my case, because for awhile I am compelled to leave the child with her, Therefore, T held my peace, al- though I could not smother a fore- boding that my yielding would result in a severe cold if nothing worse for my idolized hoy. —_ Gossip’s Corner Velvet and Ermine Some of the smartest tailored velvet, distinctively cut and trimmed with white ermine.

In the pgreat cities where special efforts are placed on having meetings or city-wide campaigns for the raising of funds for baby institu- tions and dependent babies, it may be the proper thing.

The first year, under normal conditions, the baby should about treble its weight. It may not seem to some mothers that regular feeding pertods “are of such vital importance to the baby's health, but for normal, héalthy babies the four-hour period seems to meet the general rule from the age of six weeks up to one year. If the baby is breast-fed, the judgment of the mother in most cases determines the amount of nourishment.

In composition fish and meat are similar, the strength-giving . ‘proper- ties being much the same. It is less nutritious, pound for pound, than meat, and less stimulating, but much more easily digested. Remember that fish is largely a proteid and must be carefully cooked to preserve this element. It should be ' subjected to intense heat at the first instant of cooking, then sim- mered slowly at a reduced tempera- ture. This seals the outside of the protein cells, preventing the escape of the valuable juices and the slow- cooking jellies, the cells making them easily digestible and tender and keeps the whole fish from cooking ‘“to; pieces.” Always serve a fruit dessert fish. J"ish steaks are especially nice to serve as they contain no small bones. Herring is a cheap small fish that can be boned. Whitefish contains no small bones and there are an infinite t t with i t number of small fish with few bones|g@ unattached to the backbone that have a delicious flavor and are inexpen- sive. Halibut Steak Baked With Milk. Two pounds halibut cut an: inch thick, 3-4 cup milk, 1 teaspoon salt, 1-4 teaspoon paprika, 1 lemon, 1 hard-boiled egg, 1-2 cup bread- crumbs, 1 tablespoon grated cheese (optional), 1 tablespoon butter. Dip the edges of the steak in boll- ing water and scrap skin. Season with salt and put in baking dish. Pour around milk. Bake until fish separates from bone. This will take about half an hour. Baste often with milk. Remove bone and fill cavity with bread crumbs moistened with milk from the pan. Dot with bits of butter, . crumbs and fish both. Sprinkle cheese over crumbs- amd return to the oven to melt the cheese and brown the crumbs, Garnish fish with slices of bard-boiled egg, sprinkle with pap- rika, garnish platter with slices of lemon and serve. Salmon Steak. 0il broiler well with olive oil. The fish may be broiled under the gas flame or over a bed of red, live coals. If brolled under the flame broil and brown first on one side and then on the other. If broiled.over coals turn often. Sear one side and turn and cear the other. This prevents the escape of juices. On the hot coals they would smudge and smoke the fish When cooked through serve on a hot platter, Seagon with salt and pepper and rub with butter prepared in the following way. This will be enough for two steaks: Lemon Butter, Two tablespoons butter, 2 lemon juice, . teaspoon 1-8 paprika. Work butter with a fork till creamy.
