VELVETEEN GOOD
CAKE FROSTING OR
STREET DRESS
ICING EASILY MADE
Equally Appropriate for Always Turnt Out Well If
Student or Office Girl.
Directions Followed.
(Prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
Equally appropriate for the student
at college or the girl who goes to an
office every day. Is this attractive
costume of grayish green velveteen.
Velveteen Is a serviceable fabric,
the bureuu of home economics says.
It Is made of cotton, yet It Is
warm enough to wear until late In the
fall without an extra wrap, and under
an outer coat all winter. The dress
Illustrated Is a two-piece model, and
the coat is really the waist, for the
tan blouse Is only a vest. Corduroy,
which is cotton fabric similar to vel­
veteen but with a ribbed surface,
might also have been used successful­
ly in developing this costume.
(Prepared by the United States Department
of Agr tculture.)
A cooked cuke frostlug or icing that
always turns out well can be made
very easily If the directions below, fur­
nished by the bureau of home eco­
nomics are carefully followed:

beige cotton poplin. Pongee might
have been used. Light tan gloves,
hoee and purse, harmonize with the
blouse. A brown leuther belt with a
pearl buckle consists of green machine
stitching in mercerized cotton. Chain
stitch was used. Pin tucks would also
be effective.
Tlie skirt Is slightly full at the sides
and back and has three plaits
In front to give additional walking
and sitting room. It is set on an un-
derwaist of lawn. The costume is
completed by a small black hut ami
black shoes.

The sim ulated blouse Is made of cooks for about seven or eight min­

ordinary boiled frosting and should be
almost thick enough for spreading.
Take It from the stove and continue
to beat about live minutes or until It
bus thickened. Add the vanilla. This
Is sufficient to Ice a three-layer cake
on the tops.
If the Icing proves to be Insufficient­
ly cooked It may be placed In the dou­
ble boiler and be recooked for a short
time. Or if it is too stiff, add a small
quantity of water and cook again.
For chocolate frosting mell two and
half squares of unsweetened chocolate
and pour Into the above mixture Just
before removing It from the fire. Heat
until thick and then spread. Vanilla
is also used.
For caramel frosting caramelize half
