A word by tho way tossed, as It were.
Into the lap of tho Corner by an old and
valued contributor. If tho onion fry does
not appeal to the faBtldloua housewife and
is not made more tempting by the addi

how many worklngmen and healthy
women to say nothing of lusty, growing
schoolboys ent tho dish with gusto and

Searched Jinny Cook Boolta

You havo tho whole-souled sympathy
of the Corner. We may suspect shrewdly
that writers of cook books dare not ad
venture the publication of all the "right
and only formulas" for the composition
of Thousand Island dressing for ear of
abridging unfairly tho space for other
reolpes. The Corner has received, first
and last, about 50 formulas, most of them
vouched for as the beet and truest method
of compounding the dressing. Six were
obtained from noted chefs of restaurants
and hotels. The Corner rests upon Its
oars In dire perplexity and calls pltcously
for tho slmon pure. Who dare sent It in?

"Almost any fabrlo will take oil paint,"
said Miss Cave. "Regular oil paints aro
used, thinned with turpentine or rapid
dry oil. I put my colors on lightly and
they never come out The material will

"Ah amateur In this line would get bet
ter results with the stencil designs that
are sold already cut out, for It takes real
talent to execute them oneself. The sten
cil work Is beautiful on crash, linens and
1'oavy art denims, but I think tho wcod
blocking Is more nrtlstlc on flno gowns
nnd scarfs.
"Wood blocking, ns It Is done todi,y,
may bo done by nny careful girl with
ordinary artistic talents. I havo seen rc
mnrkablo reproductions of ancient Eastern
motifs, or real Chinese patterns, on light
chiffon Ji aperies. A decornted chiffon
frock In shades of salmon pink nnd dull
blue Is a thing that any girl would bo
glad to own, for It Is beautiful. Thero
Is something soft and alluring about
wood-blocked designs that makes them
doubly vAlUable. .
"The beat way to make them Is to buy
the design already carved on wooden
blocks. These are Just like stcnotls re
versed the motif Is carved so that It
stands out In relief, and the background
Is omitted. Then the oil colors are app led
directly to the design. The tints selected,
of course, depend upon the color scheme
desired or the personal taste of tho altlst
m.,.,- MH-i ... iaI.i rinnrn fir rule, al
though there are several good books on the
woodbloeklng craft to be had at the Free
Library. They will prove a real help to
the beginner. The blocking may be done
on voile ohlffon, georgette, linen In fact,
any summer dress goods desired.
"The material should then be laid over
several thicknesses of soft cloth, with a
blotter between the layers and tho mate
rial. The boltler should come directly
under the part thnt Is to be colored, al
lowing tho block to sink In when the wood
Is applied. The tinted motif Is Just pressed
down on the material or struck onoe with
a small mallet and your design is, npPnu.
"Ordinary dyes may be used In place of
the oils, but they are not reliable, nor are
they half so artlstlo In tone."
The practical woman Is not willing to
go to tho expenie of getting a smart
painted frock without duo precautions as
to having It done up. The process Is Just
about the same as that of setting colorj
In printed materials, Soaking In salt and
water for an hour or so beforo washing
tho frock will set the oil colors so that
they will stand laundering Indefinitely. A
further precnutlon Is to hold tho stencil'
or wood block part over n hot Iron, thus
steaming the colors and making them
firm. Tho salt bath after this gives dou
blo security.
Velvets tako oil colors beautifully, be
cause they have "nap" enough to let the
design sink In. Gowns and scarfs aren't
all tho lovely things thnt may be deco
rated like this. There aro table runners

From numerous replies to tho Inquiries
respecting the use of water glass for pre
serving eggs wo are making a few selec
tions that should settle the minds of
housewives with regard to tbls Important
matter.
Eggs in Water Glnss
"In reply to the Cornerito who wrishes
to know about eggs In water glass, I put
up 1C dozen last summer and shall put
more next tlmo. I cannot say that any
of mine were unsightly. I take them out
of tho water only as I wish to use them
I havo done all my baking last fall and
winter with them. My husband eats
scrambled eggs nearly every morning for
his breakfast, and I have tried serving
him eggs from water glass and fresh
eggs, alternately, and ho cannot tell them
apart I have tried them many times.
There Is n slight odor when they have
stood a long time. I mean from the
water, but nothtng objectionable. I keep
them In a stone Jar, covered. In the cellar.

Other communications of equal Interest
will be published as we can make room
for them. Eggs are always so essential
to the comfort of the hosehold and aro so
expensive that wo cannot overlook a meth
od of keeping them fresh for months to
gether. They should be put down for
wlntpr use when they are most abundant
Pie Crust
This recipe commends Itself especially
to the tyro In pastry making. It Is easily
expressed and excellent as to proportions
and treatment:
"I would give the recipe of a fine,
flaky pie crust a New England formula r

tablespoons of lard. Salt and knead well.

flour, place over the Are, and press firmly

Outdoor Sleeping
Havo you ever slept In tho great out
doors In a cosy, rolled -up blanket? Have
you seen tho shooting stars flying through
space on a purple velvet night? No, It
Isn't a futuristic Idea of a plclnc; It's
fact. You can actually seo tho purplo
velvet and tho stars, and tho shifting
light o' day nnd' all tho other beautiful
realities If you want to. Up In tho wilds
of the North Woods, or In tho silent
fastnesses of upper Manitoba, men seo
these things every night of their llvos.
Strangers coma for many miles to seo
thorn, too, apd go back homo to llvo on
tho memory for years nftcrwnrd. For
there Is something majestic about the
midnight skies that you must see for
yourself to understand.
Tho strangest thing about man Is that
ho Is always seeking nfnr for what Is
sometimes right nt his elbow. In other
words, opportunity Is usually knocking
at his door if ha only understood the
summons, Tho samo may bo said of
sleeping outdoors. Men don't have to go
to the north to camp In the open, for the
same stars, tho same velvet nights and
the same light o' day Is hero In Philadel
phia, only they haven't the eyes to see
It!
The unfortunates who are planning on
spending a vacation In the city this sum
mer should make the good resolution to
sleep outdoors. Nothing could be saner,
nor more healthful. A sleeping porch Is
useful, but not absolutely necessary, to
do this; for you can get waterproof can
vas hunter's bags, which are beds In them
selves wherever you chooso to throw them
down Two sturdy all-woot blankets keep
the occupant warm, although these are
removable for very warm weather. Any
breeze which decides to mako een a
fleeting visit over the torrid city la sura
to be caught by the outdoor sleeper. Ho
Is placed In the open, and the bag is
fashioned with a head-rest which serves
as a pillow If wanted, or even as an
umbrella. It may bo slipped over the
head, and, being waterproof, will keep
out any kind of weather.
Cots, fitted up with camel's hair
blankets, are healthful for the porch
sleeper. These are particularly nice for
the little folks, for, while they learn
much about the stars, they also breathe
In the best Insurance against colds,
grip and pneumonia good, fresh air.
The camel's hair bankets ate made In a
long body shape, and button at one side
and at the feet to keep the restless young
ster from kicking out of the covers. They
are Intensely warm and light, as the Idea
Is to have them all the year around on
tho sleeplng-out porch A lighter-weight
wool blanket Is sold for mild weather.
The Invalid who finds It necessary to
get plenty of air can get a cage-like ar
rangement which Is fastened to the win
dow In such a way as to allow the head
and shoulders to project Into the air.
These are furnished with a soft bed besides.
Mirrors as a Decoration
A dainty mirror for tho dressing room
Ii mndo of finest plate glass with a cir
cular wreath of dull gold on tht edge.
The design reminds ono of the did Greek
sculptures. Tho same may be had In
enameled roses with foliage, done In palest
cream, pink nnd green tints. A clever
way to utlllzo'a flno mirror like this was
seen in a large scashoro hotel. The boud
oir suite in ono of the guest rooms was
fnshloned of painted wood In the very
nowest of art nouveau designs, Instead
of a dressing tablo, a low stand was used
with tho lovely oval mirror hung directly
above It, where the regular mirror would
como In n dressing table or bureau. The
effect was decidedly smart. Both mirror
nnd stand were painted to match the beds
nnd bureau.
Tho samo plan could bo carried out In
Ivory, using a discarded blreeyo maple
set or somo similar wood. It Is poor econ
omy to hnvo these sets dono'at horn. A
good lasting Ivory tint standB all kinds of
wear and any of tho large furniture stores
or department Btores will "do over" a
set or glvo ndvlco as to the newest and
cleverest ways to refurbish It
The fashionable bath Is scented with
tho most fascinating crystals. Itose. crab
apple, violet, lavender, a wonderful haunt
ing wlld-roso odor, nnd oven lilac are
somo of the bath salts to be had In tho
shops. A handful thrown into a steaming
tub Just beforo the dip Is decidedly In
vigorating. Tho bath bowi Is n pas-sing fancy. It Is
really nothing more or less than a wooden
bowl full of soap. It comes In two sizes
Infants' and grown-ups'. The bowl Is de
signed to supply an alibi for tho sonp,
which Is too often flying around tio bot
tom of tho tub or lost lu scmlobscurlty.
In this way you can always tell Just whoro
the elusive soap Is.
, Every ono has not only a set-In tub
now, but one of tho bullt-ln-the-floor-klnd
These nro arranged llko an old Ttoman
bath and really nro tho last word In bath
room appointments. Nothing could bo
mora luxurious than a deep tub of this
kind. Borders of varl-colored tiles, and
een of marble add to the color Bcheme.
The labeled bottles sold by all. tho de
partment stores now aro a great nolo In
avoiding accidents. Almost ovory house
hold drug is Included In the category, nnd
tho others mny bo ordered. They aro very
neat, much more so than druggists'
bottles. Embroidered and Initialed Turk
ish towels add the final note of elegance.
Traveling Hints
A long train Journey mny bo made com
fortable and vtry much shorter If ono
knows how. For instance, thero Is tho
matter of clothes. Usually a tailored suit
and blouse Is worn on tho train. Ono
woman always puts a soft silk dress In
her sulteaso. After she has been on tho
trnln a few minutes and has her luggage
all settled, she slips Into tho washroom
and puts on this frock. It gives a com
fortable, homer feeling that Is very grate
ful, sho says. When sho feels her skin
getting clogged up with dirt and dust Bho
takes out a little bottle of alcohol, wots
tho end of her handkerchief with It and
wipes tho skin with it This keeps the
dust from causing blackheads.
A bit of embroidery, crocheting or even
a gamo of solltalro helps greatly In whll
Ing away tho Hours. This sort of thing is
not so hard on tho eyes as reading, for tho
motion of the train cnuses tho type to
fluctuate In quoer ways. Fruit Is better
to cat than chocolates when traveling, for
If ono Is Inclined to bo trntn-slck, sweets
help to Uggravato the nausea.
Worth Knowing
A lady "buyer" whose work takes her
far from homo and to many country
hotels, declares that she la nove without
her "magician's case." This, when opened,
proves to be a flat black envelope, In
which she has pictures of her dearest
friends. Then there are, two fan-like ob
jects of palo rose-colored silk. When she
sllpi them over the electrln lights with a
small elastlo band, the room takes on a
cheerful glowt no matter what It looks
like. And the Illusion. of home-like sur
roundings always makes her feel better.
Beads
Beads are worn with nil kinds of gowns
this season. Dull lapls-lazull. Jades, cor
als nnd ambers are fashioned Into neck-
also be had In sets, Tho latter include
earrlngn and necklace to match or a neck
lace nnd bracelet Large bracelets aro
bad. Fine, dainty ones of coral are fin
Ished with a cameo -clasp. Ithlnestone and
Jet ornaments are still smart, although
tho newer blue and green peacock ban
gles threaten to outdo them In popularity.
Sivori's Violin
A dryad's homo was once a tree.
From which they carved this wondrous
toy,
Who chanted lays of love and glee
TU1 every leaflet thrilled with Joy.
But when the tempest laid It low.
The exiled fay flew to and froj
Till finding here her home once more, r
She warbles wildly as before!
Frances Sargent Osgood,
Ever Try This?
A broad black ribbon tied about the
forehead Is said to Induce restfulness.
Tho Idea is to tlo the ribbon over tho
eyes so that nothing can disturb com
plete relaxation. Fifteen minutes' rest in
a dark room or In a room whero the
blinds aro nil pulled own, with plenty of
air blowing through, Is a rejuvenator.
Many women nre In the habit of doing
this every evening before dinner. It cer
tainly aids In keeping lines away from
the face and gives a look of placidity and
charm.
ROYAL
BAKING POWDER

Used by teachers of cookery
and baking experts because
they know it makes the finest
and most wholesome food.
No Alum No Phosphate
Oatmeal Treatment
A sensitive skin Bhould be washed with
warm water and oatmeal for a while.
It whitens the akin wonderfully and keeps
It from becoming chafed. This oatmeal
treatment 1b resorted to by ono woman
whoso skin Is the envy of her friends. Her
method Is to have at hand several good
sized cheesecloth bags filled with meal.
These should be large and flat she says.
Then she banishes all her washcloths and
uses these In their place.
Cupid's Bowknots
Quaint little bowknots appear on gowns
again! The memory of making them by
the hundreds about four years ago prob
ably remains fixed in the heart of many a
dressmaker. And now they make their
debut on an 1830 basque frock with full,
bouffant skirt The bows stud the front
Of both bodice and skirt in a perky row.
