So nun)' and varlrd ar the tlalntr ahadra of rhlfTon Trillng that no trimmtnc could be mre rharmtnic nor rould there be derived any fabric which wwulJ lend Itaelf more icrarefully to clraptnic. Many motor bonnets of plain or fanrjr straw, swathed In chiffon, are seen amonc the martm showlnica. Two attrattlTe utlllutlnns of the mt r reil as trlmmlnc are shown In tiie above plrture. In the larcrr hat the veil Is merely draped, belns; cauKht up here and there with a stltrh. to the straw, and the Inns; ends belns; left to ban as streamers or to be us d as a protection for the fare If needed. In the other pli-ture Is shown a smart little motor bonnet of Panama straw In a modified helmet shape. t'nderneath the brim Is a fai-lntt ' brocade Trivet In charmlntc tints of yellow and olive, green. The Teil Is of pale yellow chifr on and Is held In lnoxe. r!tnlnc olds attains! the side of the helmet crown by two broad tabs, one at either side of the brocade. A smart new Item of the modish mo- Itor costume Is the buttonhole watch for the cuff of the motor coat. Such a timepiece Is shown In the buttonhole , of the motor coat cuff in the first lc- Iture above. This pretty little buttonhole watch may be carried safely and snuirly in a button hole of the cuff ar.d the time mar be told at a K lance, with no fum bllntr In pocket or handbag. The watch has an attachment at the back, some- ; thlntc like the swivel attachment on a j collar button, .which holds It securely In a buttonhole worked in the cuff. These little cuff watches are Intended I for automohlllsts. but trarelers also find them rery convenient. Two clever basket conveniences for the motorist are also Illustrated. One Is a lunch hamper tilted for a party of four. In addition to the plates, cups and silverware there are airtight. strr.w-Jacketed flasks for liquids and airtight boxes for sandwiches, salads and other edibles. The other basket is a combined writ Inn desk and dressing kit. Toilet arti cles and writinu materials, memoran dum books, a Iok book pf the trip and expense account books are all stowed compactly away In leather pockets, ready to be produced at the moment of need.

Combine with one-hjtlf cup ordinary crcam-cus-tard rake filling and flavor to taste altti coffee extract and a few drops of vanil la. Whipped cream may b ucd In pl.u e of the custard cream: but In this case the amount vf su'ar will have to be sllahtly Increased. A rery nice mocha fllllnc la made by using whiped cream, flavored with coffee extract and sweet ened to taste. I se a drop or two of va nilla to take away the harsh flavor given by the coffee alone: but do not let tfie vanilla Intrude Itself upon the palate. (.'offeo Bavarian cream also makes a good mocha filling. Ordinary "white boil ed frosting" may be converted Into a mocha filling by using coffee Instead of water and beating a little creamed but ter or whipped cream Into the frosting Just before It harden. For such a fill ing, eggyolks might be used Instead of whites. Have tbem beaten until pale lemon color, and as stiff as possible, be fore pouring on the boiling syrup. To make coffee extract, steep cup coffee- In H cup boiling water. Steam, and use as required for flavoring cakes and fancy desserts.

A little unbeaten egr write, say I tablespoonf ul, beaten with the sugar and butter, gives a pleasing smoothness of texture, but may aeceesltat using a little more su gar to set tbo proper spreadins con- slatenry.

Voo Seem to know so manv wava "f dlng lalRga and making: rilah. bn-.h old and nvar. that I venture to ask ?nu whether you can tell me how my mother ueo to make a sort of coffee out of corn. It was a long ttma aso, back In Illinois, and I do not remember how ehe dlil It. hut I think It ntu1 have been verr wholeonnie and inexpensive and I should like to Irr It. I wlan to thank you fr murh help alrea.ly received, aa well aa for iAnrr to this. M RS. b. W. I don't know whether the following ts just the method that your mother used: but It makes a kind of corn-coffea which some people enjoy: Corn Coffee Choose well matured ears of yellow corn, shell and wash: then steam or boll two hours. slng ss little water as possible. .Spread out en large dripping pans, and dry In very hot sun or very slow oven. Store in bags until required for use. When wanted, roast, by spreading In a pan and browning evenly In the oven. Mir alont every two minutes to prevent over-browning, since one or two burned grains will completely spoil the flavor. iome people add a minute quantity of butter and sugar say one-half tea spoonful of each to one pound of corn. Just as French coffee-roasters often do. lirind the roasted grains, like coffee, as you need them. I'se two level lor one "heaping"! tablespoon to every cup of water used, i'ut on cold: bring to the boll: boil five minutes, then keep just under boiling point IS minutes. Strain and serve rery hot with plenty of good cream one of the secrets of success with any kind of brrakfast coffee or coffee substitute. IORTUAXI). Crr.. April in. 1 will he verr gratrfu!

Idrectlons for msking crrsm puffs hav been given recently In these col umns, and therefore cannot be repeated at present. I have known a rich fruit cake or wedding cake to keep for years If treated as follows: Have ready a tin box about the sixe and ehnne of the enke you wish to keep. Be qujte sure It Is air-tight at the bottom and side Joints: If not. have It soldered. Put a layer of granulated sugnr on the bottom: put In the cake and pack the sides and top with sranif lated sugnr to completely hkle the cake. Cover with iarrrine paper, put on the lid and seal. Soldering is best. If you know how to use a soldering Iron, or have one of those useful creatures a "handy" husband. Otherwise, pursffine or sealing wax and a strip of cotton cloth ran be used. A thick coat of para ffins over the cake Itself can be use In some cases.- It peels away and leaves no trace. This can he used with the tin. as described above. Rich fruit rakes, thickly coated with paraffins and wrapped in psrsfrtne paper, have been known to keep over a year, an that this method would do If the cake Is intended to be eaten on the first anniversary. liome-Made Vinegar. The following method has been recommended to me. but I hsve not tried It personslly. Four teen pounds of coarse brown sugar. 10 gallons water, one cup "brewer's yeast" or three fresh compressed yeast cakes. Boll the sugar In three gallons water and skim while boiling. Take from the fire: pour In a gallon of cold water: strain into a 10-gallon keg; add the rest of the water; add the yeast cakes rroken In pieces, or the breer's yeast spread on small Mts of toast. Stir every day for a week: then tack a piece of gauxe over the bunghole. Set where the sun will shine on It tnd let remain six months. If made In the Spring It will be ready for Fall pickles. It is better. If possible, to put In some "vinegar plant" or "mother of vinegar." a muss of micro-organisms from previously made vinegar. Cream Cheese. I hope the following Is the kind you mean. Take one quart thick sour cream; mix In one level tahleepoonful salt (or more if llkcdc pour Into a piece of clean cheesecloth and set In a sieve or cream-cheese basket In a cool place. Leave about three davs to. drain and ripen, pouring away laily the whey In the draining dish. Turn the cheese from the clotn and cut In squares. .Such cheese Is often peeked In vine leaves, cabbage leaves, or I green rush mats. It make delicious sandwiches combined with pimento paste or strawberry or currant Har le Due jam or Jelly. Potato Yeast. Half gallon water, four larfce potatoes, one-third cup salt, one third cup sugar, two tablespoon fills dried hops, one cup flour, two yeast cakes Idry or compressed or one cup good "stock" yeast. Cse half the quantity for a small family. Peel the potatoes, cut up roughly and boll until quite soft. Pour the boiling potatoes and water over the flour, sugar and salt, and mash altogether through a sieve. Let cool, or. If very thick, add a little cold boiled water. When lukewarm, stir In the yeast and let stand In a warm fbut not hot) place to ferment, probably about 2 hours. I'ut Into covered jars and keep In a cool place. The exact proportions of potatoes, etc., are not so very Important. You are simply making a "happy garden" for the yeast plant to grow In. Cooked starch, sugnr and water aid its growth; salt and hops tend to check the growth of unde sirable organisms. The materials need to be scalded to kill any such .organisms that may be present. Good "seed" or "stock" Is essential. The best tempera ture for good yeast growth Is about SS to "2 degrees Fahrenheit: higher tem peratures, though perhaps not enough to kill the yeast, are favorable to acetic fermentation and sour bread results. The growth of the yeast Is suspended by being kept In a cool place. When bread Is made, the yeast Is again stimulated to growth hy being given the necessary favorable temperature, food and mois ture. Some people grate the potato and scald with flour. On the whole, how ever. I think the method given, above Is easier. The amount of sugar and salt may be diminished but not increased. Hops may be omitted, though, as al ready mentioned, they tend to make the yeast keep better. Dry Yeast Cakes. Stir one quart flour Into one quart strong active and thor oughly sweet potato yeast. When risen, add about one quart fine cornmeal to make a rather stifT dough. Press out. roll i-lnch thick, cut into squares or small biscuits and dry as quickly as possible without overheating. Store In a very dry cool place. Fnlry Snlud Take half an orange for each child, carefully scooping: out the meat and leaving the shell like a little cup. Break all the orange up in bits, removing all skin; then add sev eral bits of grapefruit, two or three Ii Merchandise, of Ttteril Only :'Vw -'" iiWf -f' T lrMl','et-lMf Hi-Tiililrt ' -t j,Ajs.' 2v Trawl 1 . .:--x j nr s ' 6. . -J rifd WW W i7 rW -' Jem " Once a wearer of W.

Paupers Offered at Auction. London Standard. The "culture" of the Finlanders Is not incompatible, It would seem, with an institution that savors strongly of the old slave markets of ancient Rome and the Orient of more recent days. The Finnish poor law system puts up able-bodied paupers at auction, display- ing them in the market place, where ' they are examined by employers of la bor desirous of finding cheap workmen. The bidding works downward, the au thorities handing over to the lowest bidder the chosen pauper, for the per son acquiring the right to his labor re ceives an allowance from the authori ties for his upkeep, the amount being that of the "lowest tender-" In nisposlnB of an estate ot J.2S.000.
