A Dally Fashion Talk by Florence Rose
rpHKRIJ must be real satisfaction to
the woman who dresses on n limited
income in welcoming hack into ohiic
the fcsliion for wearing detachable
washable collars nnd cuffs on dark
frocks. Usually n frock is more becom
ing vthen it has this line of white at
neck and cuffs; always it is more
economical nnd more dainty. For if
we may chnngc soiled collars nnd cuffs
for fresh ones every day or bo, our
frock does not hove to go to the cleaner
so often nnd it is very much more sure
of being kept fresh and dainty.
Of course, some women have con
tinued wenring these neat detachable
bits of lace or linen or cotton fabric
nt neck nnd wrists, nnd there have al-
wajs been plenty of them to be had at
Hie neckwear counter, but few dresses
lime been designed with n view to wear
ing them. hen we bought a frock
that was built without them, we, in a
measure, spoiled the effect planned by
the designer -when we ndded them. In
many of the new frocks nnd the sketch
hows one such the gown is designed
for the presence of collar and cuffs. If
jou nre wise you will have the addi
tional set made In the same shape so
as not to mar the original design nt
all when using them in place of the
original ones.
A frock of this sort has much to its
credit besides Its practicability. It is
distinctive in line nnd likewise in do
(.Ign. Spider webs may not seem to
you nt first sight a very attractive in
spiration for the design on a frock,
but they prove to be in this instance.
In fact, there is something approaching
a fad for this death trap of little flies
and winged insects. An extremely in
teresting trousseau set of underthings
recently brought over from Paris was
made of flesh georgette with enormous
spider webs on each piece.
This bit of originality in the frock
does not unlit it in the least for being
used for what you may call "every
day wear." If you are a business or
professional woman, the frock would
be admirable for business hours. If
not, ' it is the sort of frock that 7ou
would do well to select to wear when
ou have a committee meeting there, a
business appointment here, a little shop
ping and a call or two. It may be
worn quite well without a coat on days
like these, a light scarf being enough
by way of semblance to a wrap,
(CoprrilM. laift, br Florene Rota.)

String-Rean Creole
Prepare a crcole sauce as follows:
Otic cup of stewed tomatoes,
Tivo onions, minced very fine,
One green pepper, minced fine,
Tiny bit of gat lie.
One teaspoon of sugar,
One and one-half teaspoons of salt,
One teaspoon of paprika.
Cook until onion and peppeis nre

To Preserve Russian Cucumbers
The Russian dearly loves the cu
cumber and for this reason it plays
an important part in his diet, nnd is
served in many forms throughout the
year. Use a small wooden cask or
barrel. Cleanse thoroughly and then
place a layer of grape leaves in the
bottom and then a layer of medium
sized cucumbersf packing cucumbers
closely together. Now sprinkle over
each layer.
Chopped red peppers,
A few branches of parsley,
A few branches of fennel,
A few branches of dill,
One dozen whole allspice,
One dozen whole cloves.
Cover each layer with grape leaves
and repeat until the container is
filled to within four inches of the
top. Place a double layer of the
leaves on top and then make the fol
lowing brine:
Three gallons of water,
Five pounds of salt,
One teaspoon of black pepper.
Bring to a boil and skim and cool
before using. Place a board on the
pickles and vfeight down with a
heavy stone.
Note Do not wash the cucumber
before placing in the brine; the bac
teria in the surface of the cucumber
are equired to make pickling suc
cessful. Leaves from tho cherry and black
currant are sometimes used when
unable to obtain the grape leaves.

Adventures
With a Purse
SCHOOL days are here again, and
once more mother wistfully nnd with
a feeling of snducss watches the littlest
girl trudge off to school, following her
with, perhaps, tear-dimmed eyes, until
the last glimpse of stiffly starched
skirts can be seen us she turns the
corner. There is not a little comfort
in the thought that at least the littlest
girl Is carrying "complete equipment."
You can judge for yourself her delight
at receiving n pictme box with six good
pencils and two pencil tops with eras
ers, a penholder, a determined-looking
eraser nnd a ruler. Such a box is
priced at fifty cents.
Have you ever seen tho metal holders
one inserts nt each end of n hot car
of corn to make holding it less awk
ward? On trains and In hotels they
are familinr sights. And one has only
to use one once to appreciate its con-
pnlence. You can get these ends for
ten cents and they're very convcnient.1
I saw a box of stationery todny,
which Is quite the most complete box
for the remarkable price of fifty cents
thnt I hnvc ever seen. It consists pf
forty-eight sheets nnd envelopes ot
linen-finish pnper, nnd each box con
tains four colors. There are sheets and
envelopes to match of blue, pink, white
and as I remember gray. Isn't that
a rcmarKanic box for fifty cents?

Love Lights the Way
One woman cradled him against her
breast,
Worked with her toil-worn hands
to give him bread.
The other knew him when his boy's
unrest
Had merged to manhood and his
blood ran red.
One was the mother who had shaped
his life,
The other woman was his mate; his
wife.
Out of the blackened 'carnage of the
war
One woman welcomed back her
only child,
Saw him straight-limbed as he had
been before,
Touched his rough shirt and was
content and smiled.
The other woman saw his shattered
sight
And breathed a prayer that she
might bear the light.

in front of one of the foot-fittlne

I'll go nnd see, but I don't think
so."
You're very encouraging, aren't
you?" was the quiet, grimly humorous
retort of the customer. The saleslady
was nonplussed nnd did then put her
self energetically to the business of
hunting up white pomps. In the end
she mnde n sale of n twelve-dollar pair.

About a Kissing Game

My problem, Cynthia, Is a very com
mon one. I have often attended parties
where the inevitable kissing games nre
played, and if I, had not played with
the rest I would be called a "crank"
and "old-maidish,-" I do not like the-e
games nt all, but, Cynthia, what can
you do?
Surely a boy does not think less of a
elrl w-ho allows him to kiss her In a
came In which it' Is necessary to do so
It seems to me In this case that the
girl Is acting a part just as a heroine J
In a "movie" must when she kisses the
nero in tne iusi. ol-uc, ji wc boimb
in both cases there is no feeling in it,
it Is only acting.
I have been to parties where other
games were suggested nnd enjoyed, but
at least one kissing game was as cer
tain in the courne of the evening as the
ice cream. I can hardly wait until I,
receive your nnswer or those ot the
members of the K. U. H. 0. Thank
you.

go about tho world expecting life to be
dished out to them on a silver platter
ever realize how much they are standing
in the way of that very thing ever hap

to go into the office of a young doctor
who has been prodigiously successful.
In fact so successful that he found it
necessary to move Into very much larger
and incidentally beautifully appointed
quarters.
"Fortune has surely smiled on you,"
I remarked, "or else you have worked
hard," I added.
"I have worked very hard," bo ex
plained simply.
And he was the same obliging, nnx-ious-to-plcasc

his shingle out of a modest little one
room-and-a-half office some ten years
ago. I might have been the Queen of

of the men nnd women who know that
to live fully is to work: not simply be

made up of things for men and women

Met Him Over the Phono
Dear Cynthia May I intrude for a
little advice? I am a young girl of
seventeen summers, fair in looks, and
have recently met a young man over the
telephone. He .cnlls me almost every
day nnd always wants to make an en
gagement with me, and as I don't know
If this is a good way to make friends,
would like to have your advice in this
matter. Every time he calls ho talks
to me about two hours.
Also, last summer I met a young man
I seemed to care for and who seemed
tojcare for me. We were going to
gether for quite some time, everything
going along splendidly until one night
he made an engngement with mo and
the morning of the day that we were
to meet he called me up and asked me
if I was going to keep It. I could not
and told him the reason, nnd frpm that v
time he neither, called me up nor came
to sec me nor let me hear anything
about him. .
I heard of this fellow through an
other girl about three times, and she
always tells me that he was asking
about me, but never says anything about
making an engagement or coming to see
me. This-girl goes out with him oc- '
casionnlly and every time she sees mo
she commences to tell me of the good
times she is having with him.
I am thinking of this fellow all the -time,
no matter where I nm, and it,
seems thnt I cannot have a good time
without him. I cared a great deal for
him and don't think that I will ever
be able to forget him entirely.
Now, Cynthia, please tell me what
to do. I have never been forward or
nffectionnte while with this young manjL

DISGUSTED AND LONESOME.
My dear, you should not talk over the
phone for even two minutes, let alone
two hours, with a strange young man.
How do you mean "met him over the
telephone"? If I understand you right

many nice men to waste time over one
