THE SUNDAY OREGOXIAX, rORTLAXD, MARCH 11, 1900, FAIR AUTOMOBILE ENTHUSIASTS MAY FIND COMPLETE ARRAY OF FASHIONABLE HINTS Local Shops Cany an Endless Variety of Modish Coats and Headwear Designed Especialy for Feminine Devoteeso f the Fine Art of Motoring Some Notable Styles Illustrated. Fine Gut Glass at Exactly One Half Price f, - . II 1 1 ii i "With tlie almost endless variety of at tractive coats and headwear for motoring tiow shown in the shops to select from. It is certainly her own fault if the fair sutomobtle enthusiast does not look -well In her motoring clothes. The new dis- I tlays quite yconvincingly demonstrate that Che becoming and the practical may be charmingly combined in the motoring costume although the accomplishment is not always evident in the appearance of feminine figures at the wheel. Not all women motorists have the -trig neatness which gives the proper smart ness to an automobile toilette, and while the quaint and picturesque have some claim in motoring apparel, it is not every woman whose personality is made the more attractive by these elements. It is the woman who thoroughly under stands the clever manipulation ofveil or hood, and the possibilities of color and Sine, that knows how to render her motor ing costiime as becoming and attractive her dancing frock or dinner gown. Tlios,o Delightful Visions. Of course one catches glimpses, now and then, of delightful visions in the luxurious big cars that roll through the lly streets, on route to afternoon func tion or 'evening festivity not remote from downtown centers; graceful draperies, llunied hats, fluttering scarfs and veils of soft, diaphanous stuffs all have place In these about-town and short country ...mb, uui 11 la uiirerent m ine matter ot ostumir.g for real motoring, where feath ers and dainty fripperies would be an Intolerable nuisance and suffer destruction In the first bit of spirited speeding. The new Spring displays In the local nhops show several varieties of very Pimple, yet most attractive coats and hats, bonnet-3 and hoods, designed espe cially for motor wear. Materials which are as light in weight, and as effective in olor cr.d design as they are serviceable and comfortable have been evolved Anal ly by the manufacturers. Among the very smartest of the designs now in vogue are the peculiar, subdued plaid patterns. In which several different tones are io cleverly blended that at a dis tance the fabric shews only a monotone effect; then there are other patterns In plaid, more striking and definite, but still charmingly harmonious because of the fkinful choice and combination of color tones. 'Some of the leading patterns sug gest the Scotch tartan in their color schemes, hut the tones are so blended and softened that one color shades Into another without sharp line or contrast. Havana browns, ' warm blues and soft grays also figure in the smart plaid pat terns. A soft, yellowish brown, almost in the topaz class. Is one of the most pop ular tones for the solid color garments, and dark, rich greens and warm, wins reds are also much in vogue. Tendency Ts Mannish. The smant cuts continue to be mannish, and the- tendency is towards even more severity of design. Fluttering capes have always been an annoyance to the motor ist, and everything about the motor coat is now taut and trim. Of course, many of the coats have the picture -hoods, which are to be pulled up over the head on cool evenings or chill days, and these garments are not so severely masculine In cut, but the separate hood is becom ing mare and more popular, especially in the showings for Spring and Summer. Low. close-fitting, simply trimmed turbans or flat hats have come into al most universal use for motoring. The cap was never a success, and it is only the low-crowned, close-fitting type of hat that allows comfortable adjustment of the necessary veil, at the same time assuring firmness and security. A few suggestions sketched from the Spring displays of Portland shops are shown herewith. In No. 1 is shown the typ of modish Spring coat, with long, loose, rather scant lines, simple and mannish In design. The smart mo tor cape, for wear over the elaborate dinner or theater gown, is shown in No. 5: simple and severe, yet of a warm, soft, flexible material in an effffective color tone. It is the Ideal motor wrap, and securely envelops and protects the dainty elaborateness of the costume worn underneath. Several Attractive Suggestions. ... The popular plaid touches for motor ing wear even extend to the veil de signs, and No. 2 shows a pretty scarf veil of soft, delicate blue, with a plaid border in the Dresden tints. One of the attractive and popular motoring waist patterns is shown in No. 3, and the correct type of neckwear accesso ries are Indicated In No. 6, the severity of the mannish linen collar being modi fled this- season by more feminine touches In the way of fancy bow ties, smart jabots and an occasional bit of ruchlng. Since the evolution of the motor coat to almost perfection In the matter of simplicity of design, in . lightness and warmth of material, and the absolute protection from dust or rain. It has be come possible, even for long trips and rough journeys, for the automobile en thusiast to attire , herself In modish gowns which are suitable for almost any social demand that may be encoun tered. The simple, long lines and scant breadths of the dlrectolre style are es pecially suited for such a purpose. Orange Marmalade an Inviting Dish When Properly Prepared Lilian Tingle Gives a Number of Recipes That Have Been Weighed in the Epicurean Balance and Not Found Wanting. BY LILIAN TIVGLS. m WOULD so glad If you could I supply recipes for orange marma lade. My own batch failed and yours are always so good. I have to thank you for what success I have had In my culinary efforts, and to say that I am grateful Is hardly enough." The above letter, with Its charming little touch of "blames-," Is the most Ir resistible of many requests both writ ten and oral, for orange marmalade recipes, so perhaps a few suggestions for the making of this old-fashioned Scotch preserve may fall into the category of things "timely." Oranges are Inexpensive Just now, and this bitter-sweet delicacy Is both easy to make and usually acceptable to the capricious appetite of early Spring. The first recipe is entirely unorthodox and flies in the face of all tradition; but Is a quick, easy and generally satisfac tory method, though the result Is not so delicate and pretty as some of the other kinds. ' This Is an Easy One. Easy orange marmalade No. 1 Choose juicy oranges with thick skins; wash and weigh them. For every pound of. or anges allow 1 quart water. 2 pounds sugar and 4 tablespoons lemon Juice. Cut the oranges In half and squeeze out all the Juice with a glass lemon-squeezer. Let the skins stand in cold water over night. In the morning remove the stringy portions with a knife and pass the solid skins through a food-chopper. Put the chopped-up peel Into a pan with the juice and proper measure of water. j i! III , Sketch No. 1 shows the type of costume which shows dainty femininity at its best, and yet may be buttoned snugly under the modern automobile coat, to be there perfectly protected from !ust or weather, and saved even from wrin kling or crushing, while the wearer speeds over rough country roads or long wooded lanes ror many hours and over many miles. Cook until the peel looks soft and trans parent and the water Is somewhat re- dm-ed; then add the sugar and boll gently until a little of the mixture will "Jell" when tried on a cold saucer. Pour into jelly glasses and cover In the usual way with parafflne. One pound of or anges usually gives five or six glasses of marmalade. Easy marmalade' No. 2 Use the same Ingredients and proportions as above. Af ter washing the oranges, cut them In quarters . and. with a very sharp knife. slice as thinly as possible through skin and pulp. Add the water and lemon Juice; let soak over night: or, better still, heat to boiling point and place In flrcless cooker over night. Cook until the shreds of peel look transparent and tend to sink; then add the sugar and Don until the syrup will "loll." The bitter Seville oranges give the best Jelly or Jellied marmalade. Here Is a good old recipe for the Jelly. It can be used with fresh sliced sweet oranges In a fruit cocktail instead of grape fruit: Bitter orange Jelly Three pounds bitter oranges, cut . In thin slices and with seeds removed. , Boil. In 3 quarts water. Strain through a Jelly bag. To each pint of liquor add 1 pound sugar and boll until It Will set when cooled. A little lemon Juice Is sometimes consid ered an improvement. - JYr "Chip" Marmalade. ' "Chip" orange marmalade Use bitter or sour oranges and the same proportions as In the first recipe. Remove the peel ln quarters) from the orange. Cook un til soft In water.

Cut the yel low part Into the finest possible shreds (about three-fourths Inch long! with a pnlr of scissors. This Is best done In cheerful society, to the accompaniment of Interesting conversation, as it is a very tedious business if a large quantity hs to be prepared. Boil the chips ami pulp together until the chips tend to sink. Then add the sugar and cook until It "Jells." If this gives too bitter a marmalade, it may be modified by substituting fresh water for a part of the water in which the skins were cooked, or by changing the water during the boiling process; but in this cas the marmalade Is not so firm. Whole slices of orange In Jelly can be prepared by the second method, but longer cooking w!l! of course be neces sary. - AVIth Tangerine Oranges. The little tangerine oranges are some times preser-ed whole. The pulp 'Is extracted through a small opening with the handlcof a teaspoon. The peel are soaked, cooked, allowed to stand over night, then cooked again until Gay Parasols for Japanese and Chinese Designs with Axe in (New Tork Sun.) SHOPKEEPERS are showing new par asols for the benefit of those lucky folk who escape the end of the Northern Winter and the dismal begin ning of the Northern Spring, but Inci dentally they are encouraging the stay-at-homes. ' There'a something distinctly enlivening about golnt; forth and buying a gay sunshade In Kebruary. It empha sizes the calendar's promise that days of sunshiny outdoor living are on the way. and even the sight of a window full of parasols gives one a most pleasing uplift. The designs shown now are. of course, only the advance guard, but they indicate what the manufacturers have been doing and what we may expect later on, and while so far there is little that Is abso lutely new there are plenty of charming variations on old themes. Sun readers may remembtT that in speaking of certain Chinese or Japanese parasol shapes which put In a fugitive appearence here last Summer and were pushed enthusiastically. If with no great success In Paris, we prophesied a more decided vogue for them next Summor. and It would seem that the manufacturers are of the same opinion, for the many ribbed parasol, but slightly curved, ap pears in all the -high-class stocks. The Oriental idea is not confined entire ly to the shape, and though some of these sunshades are covered merely with flow ered silks more or Ifsa Oriental In design, the handsomer models are hand embroid ered in design strictly Japanese or Chl nes" A sketch is printed here of an ef fective parasol of this type covered in a soft, dull blue silk of rrepy texture and bordered by a narrow fringe of the same blue. As a border, between the rih are exquisitely embroidered Japase figures In gay costumes and above these little figures are conventionalized flower de signs, dwindling to mere tendrils as they approach the ferrule. One of these parasols In dull rone has a jftiriknha design with a geisha passen ger and boy runner, all embroidered In minute and delightful fashion, but these more elaborate parasols are. ot course, expensive. A plain cover with one large spray of chrysanthemums or cherry blossoms embroidered on the side Is ef fective, and there are some delightful things In natural color pongee with great colling dragons or fl'ehts of birds or flow er designs embroidered on them in self color of contrasting tones. Among the parasols in the old familiar shapes one finds colors and designs to suit all tastes, with, perhaps, a prepon derance of rose and violet shades these two names being used perforce to ex press a whole range o coloring whifeh are neither" rose nor violet, but subtle compounds of the two.

Then the pulp and sugar Is boiled up with them In the usual way. They make very pretty and uncommon preserves. Grape fruit marmalade is popular with those who like the tonic bitter flavor of this fruit. A good proportion is as fol lows: For every grape fruit of medium size use the Juice of half a lemon, IVi pints water and 1 pounds of sugar. Make like orange marmalade, removing all seeds and white skins and core. The bitterness can be reduced by soaking the peel In several successive waters before cooking. Lmoiu marmalade Is preferred by some people lo either the orange or grape fruit kind. The method is the same as for grape fruit, but the mixture never "Jells" very well. Special care should be taken to have the peel finely divided and well cooked before adding the sugar or the shreds will be hard and tough. Orange "cheese" Is made like marma lade, but pulp and peel, after being cooked until tender, are rubbed through a sieve before being boiled with the sugar. This gives' a very firm preserve which can be cut in slices for garnishing or rolled In sugar as a sweetmeat. Coming Season Hand-Embroidered Oriental Effects Vogue. same color. The makers have achieved distinct success with smooth wood sticks as subtle in coloring as the silks used for covering, and often by way of handle one one sees bnly a swelling knob of this wood lightly shaded In the one color. Or perhaps the knob may be of enamel or of some seml-preclous stone echolns the color of the stick. The rib tips too will be In this same color. Pink quarts Is effectively used for many handsome handles and Jade or Imi tation jade is also prntsed Into service, but the enamels are often quite as suc cessful as the stones. Carved wood handles representing ani mals and birds and highly colored appear each season, but the onVringa of this sort this year have more than their grotesque quality to recommend them, the designer having given to them in many cases color schemes of the most delightful sort. One handle In particular, a stork, with his long, slim neck so curved that his bill meets his slender legs. Is not only clever ly modeled, but Is colored with genuine artistic skill., if with no attention to Na ture's predilections In the matter. Soft dull rose and blue and green and violet are malo to blend with the natural tones of the wood, the coloring of the parasol cover being, of course, the thing considered in the color ix-heme of the handle. For a parasol of grayish rose, let us say. the stork handle will show the natural wood of the stk-k carried up Into the bird's legs, but blending Into the gray greens of wirs and tail. These gray greens meet Into rose shades on the breast and under the neck, but reassert themselves again along th back of the neck and in the head, while the natural wood tone crops out again in the beak. Ear rots and other birds are handled In the same way, but the stork handle seems distinctly the best of its class. Some beautiful covers in figured silks woven expressly for parasol purposes show flights of birds or butterflies In charming color harmonies; but In silk parasols, as has been said before, the one tone covers seem particularly good. These are sometimes relieved by bold soutache embroidery In self-color, as il lustrated In one model, but often are perfectly plain or finished merely by a narrow frill of the silk. An odd effect Is given In some 'eases by cutting the cover In a circle instead of curving up the sections between the ribs. This leaves a soft fulness between the ribs which breaks the hard line of the . parasol edge, and a narrow pinked frill usually helps the softening. Plain silks with borders of one kind or another are. of course, much In evidence. Persian band borders being particularly emphasized. Block check borders on plain silk covers are shown In good color ings, and among the best of the bordered designs are covers of rich one-tone silk with wide plain borders In a darker shade of the same color. More costly borders are hand embroid ered on plain covers in self-color or In darker or lighter shades of the same col or, and occasionally the wide plain border of deeper shade and the embroidery are Agents for Ansco ami Spnccn Cam eras; Cyko, Argo, Artura and Kruxo Papers.
