two coat and skirt costumes (or me
' spring,' and, beside these, a hand
some afternoon gown of silk or em
broidered ponies or. rolls and a
smart short walking- dress of foulard
or taffeta in the wardrobe Tor the coin
' In season. These frocks, with their
hats, should be all ready by the first of
. April, for "the real tiecret of dressing
well is In having the appropriate coji
' turns at the desired time, and it Is al
. ways trying to be overtaken by ' the
- weather, ao to speak, before one s out
. fit is complete, . ' .
' Again, there la distinct line drawn
between short and long suits and each
, i stylo nnw.-ts worn at certala time.
Walking and traveling costumes are al-
' ways smartly made - to clear 'the
- ground. . Reception gowns are net per
missible In walking length.. Tbla year
, all afternoon robes and those for lun-
rheons, bridge, weddings, etc, have long
skirts. It ia always aald that spring
reception garments are to be on the
most elaborate order, but a simple etyle
of dress will be found just as smart and
Infinitely more serviceable. Chiffons,
r re pea, . etc, make . most attractive
frocks, but are unnecessarily dressy
save for those receiving at a large re
eeptlon or for. the hostess herself at
some more or leas formal entertainment.
Striped and figured alike are In great
favor at present, and, as they have not
, been worn, to a great eitent of late
years, they look new and will remain
' In fashion now for acme time. ' Light
colors are- more attraotive fop spring
that the more somber tones, which bare
been - worn all through the winter
. months. It la well known that the
cause of the popularity of the spring
- wedding la due to the bright effect riv
en by the effective light frocks that
help ao to give everything a featlve air.
-There are few If any plain voiles
fashionable at present, all being atriped,
checked, figured or embroidered, some-
; Uraea all on the one color, and, again
"in two or more different tones. One
of the fads of the moment Is to border
" ail skirts of a light material with a
wide band of taffeta silk or satin, and
. the majority of . voiles are finished in
this way, with some trimming of the
. silk upon the waist as well. This
- makes an excellent finish, as "the heav
ier material gives some body to the
skirt and protects the light doth.
Trimmed skirts are In rogue, but
on the new models the principal orna
mentation la put on about the hem.: As
' nil these dress skirts must be quite long
there la none of the barrel effect, so
much In favor and so unbecoming about
two or three years back. There Is little
or no fullness allowed about the waist

Cookery in Spain
' Jean Marie Devaux lnth Delineator.
DUCHERO First of all there Is
the puchero, a Spanish soup that
s is eaten ty ncn ana poor auke.
J, ' To make It, taks three pounds
or beef, a pound of ham, the
giblets of a fowl and one or two pigs
feet, according, to slse. These are cut
into reasonably small pieces, after which
a third of a pint of chick peas. . or gar
; bansos, are added, and the mixture la
left where it can simmer steadily for
fully two hours. Half a cabbage,
.chopped; a head of lettuce, torn to
pieces; a large carrot, cut Into slices:
- a slice of pumpkin, from which the
. eeeds have been removed; a clove of
garllo. attached to a string, that It may
: be easily removed when the dish is
'served and a bunch of kitchen herbs
' are then added. After, another hour's
rooking, six or eight small aavory saus
ages are added and when these too have
become tender, the garllo Is oast aalde,
' ' and the stew Is strained. It la then
served, the meat and vegetables on a
platter, while the soup, thickened at
. the last moment, accompanies them.

pire designs are.. aUU popular. . end
neither allow of any fullness above
the knees. .
- A material which Is being smiled upon
by the dress authorities Is the white new
silk "linen canvas.". This material Is
remarkable for the soft silvery shimmer
on ltt- surface, almost like the scales of
a fish, but It Is too coatlr to outrival
the ordinary linen, and except for those
who can afford to snan their fingers
at expense It will be used chiefly for
blouses. Aa a rule these blouses will
be trimmed with thick Irish crochet.
There are everal new designs In
veils-thai "are attractive. - The chenille
dotted small rather than large dote
In ' the French veiling la extremely
fashionable, and the clear mesh makes
It generally becoming. A norelty in
heavier veiling Is the yard and an
eighth square of chiffon cloth, with
large round Velvet dota shade darker
In color. There la a wide hem finished
with hemstitching. The smartest color
are gray and pal tan. and the veil la
put on over the entire bat, with folda
drawn baok and fastened at the back of
the head with one of those new fancy
veil pins that are so popular.
The wraps of the coming season are
putting In appearance and are Inter
eetlng In all 'their phases, from- the
traveling and automobile eoats of silk
or tweed to the elaborate confections In
lac or silk which will add beauty to
elegant toilettes.-It le evident that the
fanciful wraps ef this last mentioned
elaaa are to be more popular and more
extravagantly handsome than ever, and
the advance models shown by exclusive
bouses are In many cases priced at
figures calculated te make the aver
age woman gasp. The laoe eoats of
the finest grade are perhaps the most
oostly of j tbslr kind, though hand
embroidery brings some of the silk and
lao trimmed ooats to the level of the
lac models In point of price.
Fanciful little coats, of black. or col
ored chiffon taffeta almost covered by
self-tone braiding In finest soutache and
with, big soft- knots end scarf ends of
black taf eta ribbon on each aid of
the front at ih throat are useful and
there are charming eoatees in broad
cloth, white or colored; On of these
last was In hydrangea blue broadcloth
soutached and embroidered and fell In
loose short paletot Unas. An odd little
flat hood was lined with silk of the
asm blue and finished by a hug black
chenille tassel, while black sstln scarfa,
starting from satin ehoux. fell down the
fronts and had tassel like that of the
hood on their ends. ... ' ,
ter la subsequently added. - To . this
mlrture two tablespoonfuls of browned
flour - are added, a glassful of white
win and half a saltspoonful each of
cinnamon, cloves and saffron.. When
this sauc has oooked sufficiently, slices
of cold tongue ars 'put Into It and left
until they have, become thoroughly
heated, when meat and - sauc are
served together. :
Olla Podrlda Th Spanish olio, that
famous stew-Ilke composition that Is
known th world over as olla podrlda.
Is a most savory mixture of rabbit,
oyster, vegetables and berba. When
the rabbit baa been cleaned and put
Into an earthen pot with a dosen oyster
and a pint of - consomme, a bay leaf,
mac, thyme, parsley and salt and pep
per. When these Ingredients have
boiled for Vbout an hour, th mixture
should be strained through a sieve:
the meat and oysters placed upon a
platter and th gravy returned to the
stove In a sauoepan. To this should
then be added about a quarter of a
pound of th best butter, a tablespoon
ful of flour, two tnlnoed anchovies and
a tablespoonful of whit wine, after
which It may be poured over th meat
which must be surrounded by various
kinds of vegetables, such as cabbage,
onion, peppers, bans, carrots, ate,
all boiled together until they have be
come tender. -,
Dissipation of Energy- '
; The Right Rev. Henry C. Potter, in
speaking of woman' social pace. In
Harper's Basarsays:

less when they are only enthustaatlo and
credulous, and rash and headstrong
when (hey are only trustful in a given
policy.
"And for. alast It is just' her that
th worst features of our modern min
istries of woman dlsclos themselves
some clever womsn who, because she Is
clever and ha a large heart and ardent
sympathies. Is at th back and- call of
every enterprise of the hour euch a
woman, pulled a dosen ways by as many
beneficent undertakings and "weary and
worn" with the clamor of other well
intentioned but less discerning or Intel
ligent woman, rushes to and fro and
overtaxes her strength in a philanthropic
activity whose most conspicuous not
is Its feverish hast.
"W all know isuoh women know
them, admire them and tremble for
them! As they stagger to and fro, striv
ing vainly to overtake the tasks which
our modern life Imposes upon them, we
think with sympathy, first of all, for
them, and then. ir they are wive and

to scatter their often wasteful though
always well-meant endeavors."
;, Hints for the Stenographer.
Should you find the position you oo
cupy not to your liking, says a writer
In an exchange, do not leave In a "huff."
Ton may some time be glad to us th
nam of that firm as a reference. Endeavor-
whenever possible to merit th
good win rather than the Ul will of aa
employer. .
Th keynote to being a success In th
business world I this: Find out Junt
how your employer desire his work
done, then do it as near aa possible la
that way. ..

1 Nursery TalkC
Th value of screens Is often over
looked In th household. They are spe
cially valuable In the nursery: for, while
most of us recognise nowadays the ne
cessity of the open window In the sleeping-room,
many mothers hesitate to put
their convictions into practice, ror rear
of exposing the sleeping child to a
draught Draughts are deadly. It must
be admitted. They are also unnecessary.
An excellent screen to use for this
protection Is after - the model used In
the hospitals. It Is a light weight frame
upon which whit camhrio Is gathered.
This can be easily removed and washed,
no unimportant matter.' A clothes horse
painted white makes an excellent frame.
