The white gauntlet, smoothly drawn

touch of finish to the ensemble that
makes for complete modishness. The

last word in- smart distinction. The
cuffs are slashed so that the gloves
pull on easily, without necessity for
button or strap fastening, and black
trimming in kid facings, stitching

ABERDEEN, WasS., March 28. Dear.
Miec Tingle: Will you please give me a
recipe lor the following: (1) Taffy candy;
(?) Shrimp salad made with' cabbage; (2)
A food potato salad. Thanking yeu.
A YOUNG HOUSEWIFE.
I am sorry you have had to wait
eo long for your answer, but I hope
you saw the taffy recipe given since
your letter was written. ,
Following are some general direc
tions tor potato salad from which
you should be, able to make a Tecipe
or several recipes to suit your own
particular taste: -
Potato Salad Tjcusual'y waxy por
tatoes are selected for salad, al
though, of course, salad may be made
from soft or even gnashed potatoes, if
necessary. A better flavor Is usu
ally secured by adding the dressing
and flavoring ingredients - wiile 'the
potatoes are hot. The dressing may
be "French" or "boiled" .or "mayon
naise or "cream," aB preferred. Some-1
times one kind of dressing, perhaps
French or very plain boiled dressing,
is used for mixing potato salad, and
another richer dressing (such as may
onnaise or sme variety of "Russian"
or "Thousand Island") is used for
garnishes.
Dressings for potato salad usually
need more salt, acid and condiments
than the "average quantities" given
In general recipes, the exact propor
tion being matters of personal taste.
The most usual flavor ingredient
tor a potato salad is very finely
Chopped onion or onion juice in any
desired proportion. Other optional
ingredients are as follows, care being
taken not to use too many at once
or in too great quantities or In inhar
monious combinations:
Flavor ingredients for potato salad
Finely chopped parsley, celery,
pickles (sweet, sour, mustard or dill,
desired), chow-chow, India relish,
ehervil, beet relish, celery tops, spear
mint, hard boiled eg. anchovy, olives,
celery seed, grated chese.
For flavoring the dressing, tomato.
mushroom, walnut or cucumber cat
sup or flavored vinegar, such as tar
ragon, garlic, onion, eucumber or
norseraaisn vinegars may De useo.
Worcestershire sauce, mustard, pap-
riea, lemon juice, sugar, salt, white
or black pepper or cayenne or curry
powder or Spanislf pepper in very
small quantities, chopped nasturtium
I stalks, leaves or petals), pickled nas
uritiums or radish pods, grated
horseradish, eapers any of these may
also be added if desired.
Special ingredients occasionally
used are pounded erisp bacon, finely
chopped ham,- chopped pickled
herring, garlic, fried schallots.
From -the above you can easily see
that it is possible to - serve potato
salad varying: in flavor, form, garnish
and dressing for almost every day of
the year without once repeating
yourself.
Paprica, pickles, sieved' egg yolk,
strips of pimento, 'chopped parsley or
celery or finely shredded lettuce, nas
turtium leaves or blossoms and plain
lettuce leaves are among the possible
garnishes.
Shrimp salad with cabbage Use
equal parts cut up shrimp and cab
bage. The cabbage should not be too
finely1 chopped. If desired, two parts
finely chopped cabbage to one part
linely chopped shrimps may be used,
but this makeg a greatly inferior
falad of the "eheap restaurant" style.
As optional accessory ingredients
you may use a few pieces of orange
neatly cut and freed from white
membrane, or a little finely chopped
rreen pickle with or without finely
chopped green pepper and parsley, or
sliced fresh tomato. Some makers
marmade' the shrimps in tomato juice
or orange juice instead of marinading
!n the usual way in ordinary French
dressing. Drain and mix with the
other ingredients. "Pickle fans" or
sliced hard boiled egg may be used as
garnish if desired, Serve on lettuce
with boiled dressing, or cream dress
ing, or mayonnaise, or remoulade, or
any preferred variety of Thousand
Island dressing. For the acid in the
dressing use equal parts orange juice,
lemon juice, celery vinegar and tar
ragon vinegar, if -available.
In reply to "Curiosity," I have to
say that her question is outside the
field of this column. Books on the
subject she names can be obtained
from the Public library.
a wise plan, although butter and eggs
are cheaper than they will be later.
The best plan I have found for
keeping fruit cake without brandy is
to put over It a very thin protective
frosting, (made by mixing eonfec
tioner"s sugar and water) and then
packing it solidly, bottom sides -and
top, with brown sugar In an airtight
tin. Last year I kept a eake from
early June to early September in this
way,"
The conventional almond pasta, one
Inch deep, may be put on either be
fore or after keeping, but person
ally, I prefer to put it on when tht
final frosting is given, as it Is then
mote soft and mellow, though put
ting it on before of course aids the
keeping of the eake a little.
The final frosting may be hard or
soft as preferred. The latter should
be put on the day before the wed
ding. The former may be put on ear
lier and allows more elaboration of
detail in the decoration. Formerly the
hard, frosting was "the only thing"
but now many geople prefer simpler
decorations and a soft frosting.
Any of the soft white frostings.
previously given, and to be given
later, in this column would do, per
sonal taste being the deciding factor.
The hard frosting is made by beat
ing" sifted confectionery sugar into
unbeaten egg whites, with a few
drops of lemon juice, occasionally,
until 4he whole is of a suitable con
sistency for piping. The exact amount
Of sugar taken up by the egg whites
will" vary a little, but the above Is a
good enough guide for practical pur
poses. . "" '
Park fruit cake for a wedding One
pound butter (2 cups), 1 pound brown
sugar (3 cups), cup molasses, Vi
cup honey, 12 eggs, 1 pound flour
(4 cups measured after once sifting),
1 teaspoon cloves, 1 tablespoon each
cinnamon, alspice, mace (or nutmeg)
1 teaspoon soda, 1 tablespoon lemon
juice, X euo strong coffee, 2 pounds
seeded and cut raisins, 1 pound Bui-
tana raisins, 1 pound blanched. al
monds cut lengthwise, 1 pound cur
rants, 1 pound finely chopped or
shredded candied peels (citron, or
ange and lemon), pound candied
cherries (left whole), grated rind of
1 lemon and 1 orange, 2 tablespoons
cocoa (may be omitted, makes the
cake aarker).
Prepare all the fruit. wah the
currants and raisins quickly In warm
water in a coilander; pick over on a
platter ana put on a plate to plump-
In the warming oven. Chop the peels,
blanch and chop the almonds. Warm
measure and sift 2 cups of the flour
with the soda, spices and cocoa.
Cream the butter, beat in the sugar
add 1 egg, unbeaten, with 1 table
spoon unmixed flour, beating well to
retain the "whipped cream consist-
ency.
Add the remaining egg in the same
way; also the molasses, and honey,
and liquids, beating them in gradu
ally, like the eggs, with a little of
the unmixed flour. Toss the Iruit in
the remaining unmixed flour and beat
in with the grated rinds. Last of all
fold in the mixed flbur.
Place In tins, lined with two thick-
nessses of greased paper. Spread well
to the sides ana leave slightly hol
low m the middle. Bake two to three
hours, according to thickness; but the
better way, to avoid all danger or
that burned currant taste," is to
steam the cake four hours, and then
bake 30 to SO minutes in a slow oven,
treating like Boston brown bread.
Cool thoroughly, coat with thin con-
fectionerff sugar and store as above.
If a still darker cake is wanted,
use 1 cup molasses and omit the
honey, ' the latter, however, gives a
better flavor.
It preferred the eake may be mixed
by the "separated white" method, but
the method above gives as good a tex
ture, if the beating is well dene, and
the fruit is less-likely to sink.
The following suggestions for the
use of canned cherries is given in
reply to a question by. a "Young
Bride'' some time ago.
Uses for Canned CnerFles.
For all the following dishes the
canned cherries are assumed to be
pitted.
1. In pie, alone, or with rhubarb.
raisins, or cranberries.
3. In puddings, both baked and
steamed.
3. Jellied, alone or with other
fruits. ' '
4. In fruit cocktails brfruit salads.
3; In combination with cheese.
, 8. In jam or conserves.
T. Candied, for Tise in desserts or
in fruit cakes or candies.
8. Imitation maraschino cherries.
9. In coffee cake (1) mixed in the
dough, (2) arranged on top with sugar
and butter like Dutch apple cake, (3)
used in a filling with sugar, butter
and cinnamon, with or without
raisins. -
9. In fruit tapioca (with lemon or
orange juioe).
10. Made into a spiced tart relish
for use with meats.
12. Ma.de into glazed tarts ("French
pastry" style) topped with whipped
cream or meringue.
13. Used in cold fruit soups. '-'
14. Made into ' little baked turn

Chopped capers (or cucumber piokles
or nasturtium pickles). Season to
taste with fresh, ground pepper salt,
a few grains sugar, and if liked a few
drops of Worcestershire sauce (may
be omitted); shake up in a fruit jar
just before serving. A few chopped
cuts may be added if desired. A little
chill sauce may be added if desired.

Many other variations are possible
on a basis of each type given above.
The important point in making Thou
sand-Island Dressing is to adapt the

PORTLAND. Or., May 17. My Dear
Miss Tingle: Will you please print In The
Sunday Oregonian as soon as possible the
recipe of a dark fruit eake suitable for
a wedding, cake. I would like te make the
:ske now. for a wedding this xau.
Should such a cake be packed away
with a frosting. If so, will yeu please give
me a frosting recipe? Or should the cake
be frosted when it is to be used and If
so, please print a suitable recipe. . .
xour column fiaa always neen a great
help to me and I thank you for any as-
kistanee you can furnish on my . present
prooiem. very truly.
MOTHER Or A BRIDE!
Following is a dark-fruit cake that
I hope will suit yeu. Personally I
think that for wedding cake the Ens
lish fruit eake, not dark but medium
color, given many times In this col
umn under our family pet name of
"Brother Killer," is one of the best
types. As a matter of fact the rec
ipe is one that has been used for
many royal weddings in England.
Under prohibition the question of
keeping a fruit cake is much more
lifficult. ; Formerly brandy was
poured over the cake, very gener
ously, before it was set away to
ripen. The alcohol acted as a pre
servative to prevent moulding.
Now, however, much more care and
watching is needed, especially if it is
to be kept during the hot summer
months. Indeed, unless you have a
good, oeol storage place, not too dry
and not too damp, I almost doubt
whether making it now is altogether
Following is a recipe asked for
iome time ago by "Housekeeper"
(Bandon):
"Bran Bread with Dried Fruit. -Two
cups bran, -i cup boiling water, 1 ta
blespoon shortening, to 1-3 cup
molasses (to taste) 1 teaspoons

softened in cup lukewarm water.
1 to H4-cups cut-up prunes or figs.
3 to 4 cups graham flour; or half
graham flour and half white; or 1-3
graham and 2-3 white The prepared
or "krumbled" bran is very good for
this, though ordinary bran may be
used and is a little cheaper.
Raisins, nuts and dates may be used
Instead of prunes and figs; but the
latter are more usetui in a laxa
tive bread.
The use of all graham flour gives
a dark, rather heavy bread, which Is
helped in lightness by the addition
to the above of 2 teaspoons phos
phate baking powder and hk teaspoon
soda. If some white flour Is ased

cardamon as flavoring In this bread,
