PR1S. Feb. J. (Special.) No mat ter how rich and handsome the Winter wearables have been. It la always a Joy to cast them aside In favor of sheer, fresh summery belongings; and the Instant furs are laid aside and frequently before that the white Eprlna- shirtwaist of lingerie sugges tion becomes of vital Interest to woman. But not In the memory of woman, bowever. have Spring shirtwaists been as attractive or as sstlafactory and practical as they are this season.. The semi-tailored models seem to be the favorites. Last year the Spring blouse was either elaborately trimmed and shaped, or it waa uncompromis ingly severe and mannish In type, with collar that demanded a four-in-hand tie and cuffs that required llnk-but-fma. This year the tailored waist has taken onto Itself gay lltUe furnishings that lend It a more appealing, femi nine air. while Its admirable simplic ity, of line la retained. resslalae Sete Aepareat. One of the furblshlngs referred to Is the plaited shlrtbosom, filched, of course, from masculine garb, but dllcl ously feminine In its new Incarnation. Bometlmes the shlrtbosom Is made of finer material tbaa the blouse. A linen blouse may have a bosom of pin tucked batiste; or an allover embroid ery blouse a bosom of lace and pln tucklng; and then the bosom, cut In a deep oval shape. Is set Into the front of the blouse with lace Insertion, fancy fagoting. or seam beading. Usually there Is a plaited frill down the center of the shirt bosom, or at a lltUe to the Wl of the center, and be Jt noted that this year's frills are much mora modest and chastened affairs than the exaggerated floppy frills of last season, which must have been a trial to the laundress. Blouses that extend below the belt line are an Interesting Innovation this Spring, and it will be observed that these basque-Uke blouses accentuate the longer, or normal, waistline a sure sign that the high empire waist is pass ing. Two blouses of this style are pic tured today; one an all-over lace model In a dashing cutaway effect, and the otfcsr also a mat type, with an old fashioned postilion at the back. The coattall style of blouse Is smarter now than the plaited frill all around the wt- There Is one feature that makes all new shirtwaists kin. and that la the set-to sleeve. Every absolutely new blouse proclaims Itself so by its new sleeve, and the wise woman will be wary of bargain salee of marked down waists this month, for kimono models will be hurriedly worked out of stock la such manner. The early Victorian ataeve suggests a kimono effect, but It Is indubitably new and modish, though not as popular as the regulation set-in sleeve, quite etralght In cut and moderately wide at the lower end. the material being set Into a rather wide ermbole without gathers. Some times there are groups of very minute pin tucks at the top of the sleeve and this relieves a tight, ungraceful look, es pecially when the upper arm Is plump. There are long sleeved blouses and Mouses with sleeves lopped off above the elbow and both seem to find fa vor with the couturiers; but the style that promises best for general Summer wear ia a three-quarter length aleeve. j coming well below the eioow oui uoi approaching near enough to the wrist to make the forearm look ugly. Some .he French blouses have little pleated lace frllle In groups of three j en ths sleeve below the elbow. Turned 1 back- cuffs also are used and often there la a pleated trill or lace or ui at the top of the cuff. Black net or maltnes frills are used by the French blousemakera on waists of the tan and ecru net which la now so fash wr. The collar and cuffs are bor dered with plain white silk set on with green hemstitching; the buttons -are covered with white silk, and th smart bow-tie Is in tha pale jrreon shad. This waist has the familiar Gibson plait over a set-In eteTe, With the rot urn of set-in sleeves. panl trimmings are returning to favor, and these panel effects this season are often used to suxicest a front fasten ionable, and often little black velvet or covered satin buttona are added to emphasise the chlo black touch. A blouse of this sort by Seblllon Is of deep cream net with Insertions of Bo hemian luce In the same tint, the blouse having been designed to ac company a Riviera traveling suit of tan and cream coemoa mixture worn with a taffeta turban of the same color and tan boota with the new gai ter tops of tan cloth. Beets Are Dalaty. Every tailored costume now, by the by. has Its accompanying . boota ' of dainty type and most of the rarlslenne'a little boota have these pretty gaiter topa with flat buttons set down the outer aide and so little leather visible at the toe. below the deep cloth top, that the foot looks particularly tiny and trim. To return to the smart Seblllon blouse worn with the tan cos tume, the Interesting thing about this simple little cream net model was Its distinctive black trimming. Tha cuffs were made of the Bohemian lace with bands of black mallnea laid under the scalloped edge and the collar of the blouse was fashioned In the same man ner. Below the high collar, all around. -fell a narrow pleating of black mallnea with a pert bow of black ailk at the front; and all the way down the front of the blouse were small black velvet buttons. As these cream net blouaea must pay a visit to the clean er's whan renovating Is necessary, the velvet buttona and mallnea trimming do not matter, as they would on a washable lingerie Waist. For wear with Spring tailored suits there are also practical traveling blousea of the new chiffon taffeta. In changeable effects. One of these blouses In peacock shades cf blue and green was shown with an Imported tailored ault of blue mohair at an opening last week. This taffeta blouse waa quite simple In line, but It was braided elaborately with narrow black soutache, the braided pattern encir cling the round neck. In which was set a net yoke, trimming the lower edge of the aleeve' and also outlining the arm hole, which was an early Victorian affair dropped half way down the arm between shoulder and elbow. Only the woman with early Victorian should ers of the sloping type should attempt this style of blouse with Its elongated Answers to Correspondents BT LILIAH TINOI.E. t HrBBARD. Or.. Jan. 2. Please rle I some recipes la -The bandar Oreconlsa for chicken tamales and chicken polple (Hex! caa. ThaaklDg yea in advance. MRS. C C K. CHICKEN TAMALEd NO, 1 Blmmer a fowl until tender; season with salt while cooking. While still hot. remove the bones and skin, and chop the meat very fine, adding a little very finely minced garlic and cayenne pepper to make It as hot ss desired. If wsnted extremely hot, use a few drops of tobasco. Have ready a thick mush made of one cup cornmeal thoroughly cooked In boiling salted water. Shape the minced meat In thin rolls about three Inchea long and Inclose each In some of the mush. Have ready also Inner husks of corn (about six Inches long sf ter both ends are trimmed), well washed In boiling water. Inclose each roll of mush and chicken In corn husk, tying tha ends nrmly with string. Add two or three Mexican peppers to the liquor In which the chicken was boiled and cook the tamales In It IS or A 20 minutes. Chicken tamales No. 3 Simmer ing, when the waist really closa at the back. The blouse pictured Is of white cotton voile, with a rln-tucked vest be tween panels of Venlso lace, motifs of Irish crochet beinir Introduced at the tOD of sleeves and rat to add elabora tlon. The vest apparently closes with white croc he. t buttons, the net yoke be ing divided In the middle by a plait to carry out this effect, but the fastening Is really at the back of the waist. . 'Shirt Bos- shoulder and sleeve puffed out at the elbow. On a square-shouldered, ath letic woman such a blouse Is atrocious. I .ace Bloeeee Popular. So called "lingerie" blouses, very pop ular with Parisians Just now, are made entirely of lace. One shudders to think what would be the result If one of. these "lingerie" affaire ever visited an ordinary laundress with a strong right arm and a scrubbing board. All over Valenciennes In a creamy tone Is the favorite material and .sometimes this lace 1s mounted on fine cream net and sometimes It Is mounted on noth ing at all. the decollete effect being very striking Indeed, since the bare arms and shoulders above a low-cut corset cover show very plainly through the lace. A blouse of this type, by Callot, accompanied a trig little navy blue tailored suit, recently exhibited In New Tork. Beneath the cream Va lenciennes In this case was a cream chiffon lining and on this rose Irregu lar sections of blue satin, matching the blue of the serge suit; so that blouse and skirt were entirely In harmony. In front, this Callot blouse had a new and interesting trimming, for there was a graceful Jabot of lace, which fell In two long pointed ends almost to the hips, the lace ends showing quite plain ly beneath the short cutaway coat of the suit. This Callot blouse had also a new neck arrangement, a compromise between the tall, boned stock, so un comfortable In real Hummer weather, and the Informality of a regulation Putch neck. The collar-line of the lace blouse was finished with an odd little oravat of cerise taffeta, this cravat be ing about the width of a man't string tie and having a stiff cravat bow in front tied In the mannish fashion. Above the cravat waa nothing but the bare throat, ratber a trying style, even If a distinctly smart one. Belts ars coming In again. With the return of the normal waistline, the high-banded skirt, self-finished, will have to yield to some sort of belt and already belts are being taken up In Parla. The narrow stitched silk belt with its flat pump bow, shown on tha cutaway lace waist trimmed with frills. Is a nsw notion sure to prove popular, and the cream net blouses with black net pleatlngs have often crushed girdles to match, made of the black net with butterfly bows at the bark. fowl until tender. Remove the flesh from skin and bones and mines it with one-half pound seeded raisins, ons-balf cup stoned olives sfid one young red pepper. Season to tests with finely minced garlic, salt and-cayenne or ta basco, also a few dropa lemon Jules. Stir Into a paste with two cups corn meal, scalded with boiling water, one teaspoon sugar and one tablespoon finely minced onion. Cook over tha fire to a stiff mush (adding a little boiling water ss necessary) for 15 to 20 mlnates. Then add aiz fine chopped hard-boiled eggs. Have ready prepared Inner corn husks, aa above, and roll up the mixture In these, tlelng firmly and neatly. Cook one hour In chicken broth or boiling salted water, the for mer being preferable. Chicken tamalea No. J Prepare like No. 2. omitting the raisins. To each roll of chicken and corn paste add a spoonful or two of tomato sauce to which has been added finely minced garlic or onion, and pulp from chile peppers. Prepsre the latter by wash ing and soaking In boiling water, then scrspe the Inside with a spoon, dis carding seeds and outer skin. . The amount used depends upon how hot the tamales are desired. A little pre carcd SDanish pepper powder of -chill con carne powder" may be preferred by some to the chill pulp. Finish as above. Will you not explain a little more fully what kind of chicken pot-pie you mean. I Imagine it would be made like any other pot-pie, except that the gravy would be highly seasoned with garlic or onion, chile paste or chile powder, and perhaps tomatoes. Per haps this hint will be enough for you to follow; If not, please write again. Vancouver, Wah. Jan. 25.

Jan. 22. Please give, through The Sunday Oregon Isn. a recipe for pickled figs. MRS. M. M. I Judge you. mean pickles, made from ths dried figs, not fresh ones. Select cleans-looking "pulled" figs, white or black, as preferred. Wash In several waters. Soak or steam until well swollen. Make a syrup, allowing one pound sugar and one cup water for every pound of figs'. Simmer the swollen flea in this until a straw will pierce them. Pack In Jars, with a few whole cloves, bits of stick cinnamon, shreds of yellow lemon or orange rind and a tiny, bit of mace. Cover with the syrup. On three successive morn ings drain off and boil down the syrup and pour again over the figs. The third morning meRsure the concen trated syrup and for every three cups yrnp add one cup good vinegar. Boll up thoroughly.- Pour over the figs and close the cans. Where the figs are Intended for. dessert purposes only, brandy, wine, grape Juice or a solution of tartaric or citric acid might take the place of vinegar. The result will then be "hrandied figs" or "fig pre serves." respectively. The pickled figs may be used as an adjunct to any meat with which other sweet pickles such as peaches or crab apples are com monly served. They can also be used, occasionally, as one of the Ingredients in a fruit salad. Portland. Jan. 2. Will you kindly give a recipe for l) tried green peppers or man goes; also (2) kindly Inform me u to the use of lire as a veretable. and (S) how to fix parsnips with butter or any other way to fix parsnips. Thanking you very kindly, MISS G. K. (1) I do not quite understand your first question. Do you mean "fried green peppers or fried mangoes?" Or do you mean "fried green peppers or green pepper mangoes," or what? Per haps you will describe more fully the sort of dish you Sjiean, and then I will do my best to fit a recipe to It. (2) Rice is deficient in the salts which form a valuable constituent of most of the food materials that we class under "vegetables." It Is, of course, valuable for the starch It con tains, and being so neutral in flavor can be used as an adjunct to highly flavored materials such as meat. When using boiled rice In place of potatoes, you will generally find that the rice Is roost acceptable if boiled In the Ori ental way instead of being stewed and mushy, as many American cooks serve It. Some kinds- of rice will not boll well. Just as some potatoes will not boll well. The rice should be well washed In several waters, but not soaked. Drop Into strongly boiling salted water and boll rapidly for IS to 20 minutes, or until a grain of rice can be rubbed smooth between finger and thumb. Use a large quantity of water, so that the grains may be whole and separate, and not stick to the bot tom of the pan. Drain quickly through a sieve or colander. Save the rice water for use In soup, gravy or rice Jelly; or for laundering fine lingerie. Pour over the rice clear hot water (or cold even. If the rice Is not too much chilled, or has plenty of time to re heat) to separate the grains. Set back ever the pan on the stove or in the oven. If not very hot, covered with a clean cloth, and let steam and dry out a little, as you do potatoes, so as to have each grain white and light, and separate Instead of soggy and mushy. Rice can, of course, be served in s number of less simple ways In the vegetable course, aa, for Instance, Spanish rice, Italian risotto. Turkish pllaf, rice timbales. fritters, croquettes, etc. Let me know If this is not the Information you wanted. (3) Do you mean smothered par snips? Boll the parsnips until tender. Remove any woody part, slice Into a double boiler, with pepper, salt, a few drops lemon Juice and butter, accord ing to taste and pocketbook. Cover and let cook slowly not less than one half hour. This develops a more sat isfactory flavor than merely boiling and buttering them. Instead of using a double boiler you might put them in a shallow, well-butered, covered bak ing dish. In the oven and let them brown as well as smother" In tha butter and seasoning. They can also be served mashed like turnips, with hot milk or cream butter and season ing: or mashed with potatoes equal parts or two parts parsnip to one of potato. Such a puree might be served plain or made - Into balls or pear shaped cakes with or without a little egg, and browned In the oven or on the griddle; or egged and crumbed sad fried in hot fat or used for borders or tunbales. The seasoning can be varied to taste. Very often combina tions of parsnip with another vege table may ' be liked where parsnips themselves are unpopular. Stuffed parsnips offer considerable variety too. After cooking cnt length wise and remove the hard part in the middle, filling the cavity with any preferred . mixture. Chopped peanuts, bread-crumbs and mashed parsnip make a good filling, held together with a little cream, or milk, or beaten egg. enriched with a little butter or bacon fat, and seasoned with salt, pep per, or paprlea, parsley, and a few drops of lemon Juice, with or without a little otilon Juice. Creole stuffing Is also good with parsnips. Scalloped parsnips are rather nice, either alone or In combination! with tomatoes. Parsnips may also be browned In the oven in' a little butter or drippings, like "browned potatoes." or glazed like "sweet potatoes. Southern style." For some tastes parsnips are Im proved by being boiled In two waters. When old parsnips are best put on to cook In tepid water; when young, In boiling water. They cook most easily If 'cut In two, across, so that the thick and may be spilt In pieces of thickness similar to the thin end. For stuffed parsnips, the thick ends can be used to make cups. If preferred: but these of course take a little longer to cook. I am sorry to say that I have not yet found the exact recipe for the Rus sian soup asked for by Mrs. J. L. P., but I expect to do .so shortly. I must ask Mrs. B. I', tfortiana). A Subscriber" (Independence) and Mra P. (Portland) to wait until next week for their answers. Hoe Cake One pint of fresh corn meal, one teaspoonful of salt, and boil ing water enough (stirred In gradual ly) to make the meal swell: have the batter rather thin, urease a pancaice grtddle. pour batter on thinly, turn once and serve hot with butter. In its natlvs Southern land this Is of course really cooked upon a hoe, which is set In front of an open fire. S'A-:.'::..

The blouse Js built of allover cream lace." the pleated frills being also of lace and the sleeves of plain cream net.

This is especially the case In small city apartments were there la not space enough for a regular maid. The drudgery of housekeeping la thus lessened, while the. general health of the family Is considerably benefited. In the new bedchamber there is noth ing for mere looks, no useless bric-a-brac for the harboring of dust and pos sible vermin. Tet the hygienic bedroom may still express prettiness, a decided charm. Tt is of two distinct sorts. It has either a hospital plalness and bare ness, or else the few necessaries used are made attractive with coquettish muslin or cretonne curtains, pretty bed spreads and dainty bureau fixings. But all of these things are washable, for cleanliness. In ths highest sense, Is the chief object of these rooms. The first move toward the accomplish ment of a hygienic bedroom Is the re moval of the old wall paper. In many cities this thorough cleansing of the walls Is exacted by law, aa It Is an es tablished fact that disease may be transmitted through wall paper, and the landlord of the cheap apartment is only too much given to putting one over another. Her walls scraped and the room fumi gated If necessary, the housekeeper next decides whether she will have a papered room or a painted one. The last Idea is the more wholesome of the two, If the less elegant, for painted walls can be washed down every season, and, besides, paint lasts a good deal longer than paper. If paper Is chosen it is in a very light color and without a distinct pattern. Some pretty wall papers in shadow stripes white and faint gray, or white and cream are very smart and give a suggestion of space. These may have a floral garland at the top or be put on without It. The ceiling Is calsomlned for both the paint ed and the papered room and the wood work painted white with a hard enam eled finish. After the weekly cleaning, a rag dipped in white soapsuds Is used on the painted part of the room with fine effect. The furnishing of such a room Is a genuine labor of love, and happy Is the woman who can buy everything new that is needed. A white iron bed with the top and bottom the same height and of a solid sort, and a bureau, rocker, small table and etralght chair of white enameled wood are the only pieces of furniture absolutely required. If there la no wardrobe built in the room a bachelor's wardrobe can be bought, this being a smallish, easily moved conveni ence much used at present. In a double bedroom there would be two bachelor wardrobes placed side by side, exactly alike and painted white to match the wood of the room.
