    For Business Girl
v :-4 '
TIME was when the business wom
an took no thought as to where
with-all she should be clothed—
attractively. The tailored shirt waist,
tho stiff linen collar and the well fit
ting tailored skirt for the office, with
a jacket or coat, and the plainest of
hats for the street, made the limits
of her choice very circumscribed.
Such an outfit, of good material, good
tailoring and immaculate as to con
dition, is hard to improve upon. Rut
a too steady diet of the best of things
gets tiresome, especially to women,
and along came the business girl, in
whom the eternal feminine longing
for pretty clothes was not to be
repressed.
The business girl, tastefully dress
ed, is still tailor-made, but with varia
tions. Among her first discoveries
was that of the extravagance of the
immaculate shirt waist. It had to be
fresh as a rose, or its charm was
gone. This meant a change every oth
er day, with a longing for a daily
cleao waist which went intensified in
tie majority of cases. For laundry
bills have to be reckoned with. The
business girl took up the dainy lin
gerie waist, with a little embroidery
and a little fine lace for decoration.
With three-quarter length sleeves and
removable collars, she achieved econ
omy in the matter of laundry bills and
prettier dressing at the same time.
The daily fresh collar is a joy and an
inspiration.
The black silk waists of messaline
or other soft satin-finished silks, is a
boon to the business girl. They are
prettiest made with yoke and collar
of white net, lace or batiste. These
yokes are easily washed and dried
over night, or a set of three will pro
vide for the week. Many of the
waists have high collars, with which
turnovers are worn. They are not
quite as pretty as those with yokes,
lilack skirts well fitted and tailored,
are worn with these waists. The
effect is dignified and charming. Other
dark colors, such as navy and dark
brown, are made up In the same way,
but black never grows tiresome. The
large retail establishments require
their salespeople to wear black, be-
REALLY SMART LITTLE DRESS
Blue Shantung Probably Is Best Ma

Here.

cause It Is the best choice in colors,
but it is much improved by the toucb
of white near the face in yoke or
collar. Yokes of black net are worn
by the way of variety.
Now that the one-piece dress is so
much in vogue, a black serge, if well
tailored and fitted, will give the busl
neas girl greater satisfaction. After
this, a dark, rich blue is the best
choice. The plainest of shapely coata
to match, worn with white collar and
jabot at the neck, and a smart hat,
make the costume all that any one
could ask.
It is in the matter of hats that
the business girl is most liable to fail
in her attempts to get both practical
and pretty things. This is probably
because she is laboring under some
delusions as to what is practical, that
is what is durable and becoming.
Very large hats lose their shape
with much wear, are difficult to man
age on windy days, get in the way in
elevators and cars and become much
battered and dilapidated before their
days are all numbered. Therefore, 1
beseech you little business girl, buy a
small, smart hat, made of good ma
terial and in a simple design. Heav
ers and beaver cloth, felts (in good
quality) velvet and (spite of its fragile
appearance) gooi chiffon will stand
constant wear. Don't consider os
trich feathers or flowers, but pin
your faith to wings, quills or faDcy
feathers, bows and rosettes of
ribbon or silk, waterproof iralines or
chiffon, in selecting trimmings. Shapes
are good this fall. Ir. fact, millinery
is the best we have had for many a
year.
1 advocate the things that make
for a dainty, neat, well-set-up appear
ance, in business or anywhere else.
The clean yoke and collar, the well
tltting and well fastened dress, the
carefully arranged hair, smooth and
shining in puff or curl, and the smart
and trig street hat make up an en
semble that have frills and furbelows
badly beaten, when it comes to real
permanent charm. If she only
knew it, the clothes appropriately for
the business girl are "the best ever."

DAINTINESS IN SERVING TEA
j Small Things That Count For Much
In Thi» Most Pleasant After
noon Function.
As young women are so often asked
to pour tea for their friends who are
entertaining, thy should realize what
a difference It makes how the tea Is
served If thla is done In a careless
manner the guests have always the
feeling that something may at any
j inomt tit ho upset, and the quiet and
! rfiio-t*, which Is an essential element
In that most peaceful function, is lost.
It is well for the person who pours
the tea to rearrange the tray before
the arrival of the guests, so that each
piece Is Just w here she Is ac. ustomed
to have It, otherwise she is *pt t e fum

Cake Making.
A flno cake is the flower of cook
ery. It requires more care and judg
ment than many other branches of
cookery.
A really good cake is not a common
sight, for we need to raise our stand
ards as to perfection along many lines
of cookery.
A cake to be in the blue ribbon
class should be fine grained, light
and feathery white and good flavored.
This is speaking for the regular but
ter cakes which are most common as
loaf and layer. Sponge and angel
cakes should be fine of texture and
tender. A fruit cake, rich without be
ing soggy.
In filling a cake pan it is well to re
member that the center of the cake is
the part which will usually be the
highest, so spread the batter as much
to the sides as possible, leaving a de
pression in the center, then the cake,
when baked, will be level.
The making of cake requires skill
and care, with practise. Careful meas
uring is no small part of successful
cake making.
'£)ie mixing and baking are equally
important. Many a well made cake
has been spoiled in the baking.
German cooks excel in the making
of tortes, the cake par excellence.
They are rich in eggs and nuts and
crumbs of cake or bread take the
place of flour. The following is a de
licious one that may be made if tb«
directions are carefully followed:
Walnut Torte.
Heat the whites of six eggs with
one cupful of sugar and a fourth of a
pound of walnuts, grated, and six
grated lady fingers, two tablespoonfuls
of flour sifted with a teaspoonful of
baking powder. Add the juice and
rind of half a lemon, cut and fold in
the whites of the eggs and bake in lay
ers in a moderate oven.
Filling.
Beat one egg yolk, add two table
spoonfuls of sugar, three-fourths of a
cup of milk. Cook until the mixture
coats the spoon then add three-fourths
of a pound of walnuts grated and a
little vanilla. Put between the layers
and on top, or the top may be iced.
Keep a pile of pumice stone to re
move stains from the hands.
fEOPLE who take puin.s never

ti.an they do."
A Dozen Divine Points.
Can'st tell how an oyster makes his
shell? No! Nor I, neither. We have
been taught that the oyster is poi
sonous during the summer months.
The old adage, "Eat no oysters in
months which have no R," is common
to us all. May is the month in which
the spawning season opens, and al
though they are never unwholesome,
June, July and August they are poorer
in quality and lack flavor—nature's
way of protecting her own.
A large proportion of the oysters
consumed are eaten raw, so that it ia
very necessary that they should be
perfectly wholesome.
If not absolutely sure of the fresh
ness of the oysters, the liquor should
be thrown away and the oysters
washed.
Old-Fashioned Stew.
Put the oysters over the heat with
their own liquor or an equal amount
or water, cook until the edges curl;
add seasonings of salt, butter and
pepper and turn into the tureen. Scald
a quart of milk for a pint of oyaters.
and pour over the oysters.
Oysters a ia Creole.
Melt two tablespoonfuls of butter,
add a slice of onion and cook until
pale brown. Add one teaspoonful of
flour. When brown add a cupful of
tomatoes Took until smooth, then
add a pint of oysters; when the edges
curl add a drop of tabasco, salt and
parsley to taste Serve on toast.
Egg Plant WMh Mushroom Stuffing,
Tut the egg plant in halves length
wise, and parboil In salted water un
til the pulp Is tender. Scoop the palp
to within half an inch of the skin
Chop the pulp fine, add half Its bulk
of chopped mushrooms, the same
quantity of bread crumbs soaked in
.lock or moistened with water, half a
teaspoonful of minced onion, a table
spoonful of butter and p< pper and salt

THOUGHT SHE HAD PRACTICED
Frenchman's Suspicions Really Some
thing of a Compliment to the
Men of America.
Claude Orahame White, the English
aviator, praised, at a dinner in New
York, the good fellowship of Amer
icans.
"The American woman is regarded
abroad as an angel," he said. "The
man is admittedly a good fellow, but
an angel he is far from being.
"You've heard of the Frenchman
perhaps, whose sweetheart spent the
summer in America? After her return
the poor Frenchman seemed quite
blue.
"'What's the matter with you?' a
friend asked.
" 'I am worried,' the other muttered,
'about my fiancee. You see, since her
return from America she kisses so
much better than she used to.'"
AN INTOLERABLE ITCHING
"Just about two years ago, some
form of humor appeared on my scalp.
The beginning was a slight itching but
It grew steadily worse until, when I
combed my hair, the scalp becam®
raw and the ends of the comb-teeth
would be wet with blood. Most of the
time there was an intolerable Itching,
in a painful, burning way, very much
as a bad, raw burn, If deep, will Itch
and smart when first beginning to
heal. Combing my hair was positive
torture. My hair was long and tan
gled terribly becauso of the blood and
scabs. This continued growing worß®
and over half my hair fell out. I was
In despair, really afraid of becoming;
totally bald.
"Sometimes the pain was BO great
that, when partially awake, I would
scratch the worst places so that my
finger-tips would be bloody. I could
not sleep well and, after being asleep
a short time, that awful stinging pain
—would commence and then I would
wake up nearly wild with the torture.
A neighbor said it must bo salt rheum.
Having used Cuticura Soap merely as
a toilet soap before, I now decided to
order a set of the Cuticura Remedies
—Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Pills.
I used them according to directions
for perhaps six weeks, then left off,
as the disease seemed to be eradi
cated, but toward spring, eighteen
months ago, there was a slight re
turn of the scalp humor. I com
menced the Cuticura treatment at
once, BO had very little trouble. On
my scalp I used about one half a cake
of Cuticura Soap and half a box of
Cuticura Ointment In all. The first
time I took six or seven bottles of Cu
ticura Pills and the last time three
bottles—neither an expensive or te
dious treatment. Since then I have
had no scalp trouble of any kind.
Standing up, with my hair unbound, it
comes to my knees and had it not been
for Cuticura I should doubtless be
wholly bald.

timonial and I take pleasure In writing
it, hoping my experience may help
someone else. Miss Lillian Brown,
R. F. D. 1, Liberty. Me., Oct. 29, 1909."
