Jack MeConnell Wise Ing Rebukes Cook There Is a wise old clog living at a country house, who, like all wise dogs, made friends with the cook, says The Children's News paper, London. The woodstack was some dis tance from the house and, when kindling wood was wanted, the cook would tell the dog to fetch some sticks; He .knew what she meant and used to trot to the wood yard and bring back a stick at a time. One day he crime back with a wagging tail and an empty mouth. Cook sent him again, and yet ngaln, but each time he came back empty mouthed, wagging his tail apologetically. Cook was puzzled, then angry, and calling Hie dot; ugly names, drove htm off on the same errand, determined thnt hi should carry out her orders, once more the old dog trotted away find in a few minutes he came back with the hatchet dragging on the ground beside him! When he reached the house he dropped the hatchet before the cook, us if t" fiay. "There's no wood cut and if you want any you must go out and cut It!" A Reader.

Fore heads ore more on display and brims Are wider this autumn. Both of these new style lines are apparent In a hat of silky dark seal brown sotell. The brown suede pump, a new type called "Travelese, exactly matches the brown suede bag. Knscmblo BKOW.W red green and blue there you have the smartest autumn color and if you add black, which is more prom inent than ever this season, you have the triumphant five! What a long way we've come, I couldn't help thinking, since the dim dark ages of seven or eight years ago. "Knsemble" was then such a new style word in the aver age vocabulary that many stores obligingly spelled it out In their advertisements, "ansahm-bul," so that public and sales person might meet on a common ground of un derstanding. Now, each season we plan blithe ly for our tailored, afternoon and evening ensembles and see the term in Its truer sense, not only as related coat and frock, but as including the accessories, shoes, hats, gloves, hose and Jewelry, which carry out the color scheme and complete the style picture. Afternoon ensembles, which are a very distinct type this season, lavish as to the use of fur. reck less as to the superlative quality of fabric used, have more uses than almost any other type of aut umn apparel. They are a perfect choice for bridge parties, matinees, and informal dinner dates with that dear delightful masculine someone who appreciates smart clothes. Studying Uie Silhouette Very definite changes have taken place in the silhouette this aut umn, and before you decide on your style you must think hard and fast as to whether you'll go in for straight lines or flares. Cer tainly, many of the coats I've seen at the smartest gathering place in New York, do stress the flare. Body lines ore still long and slim, nnd slightly fitted in princess fash Ion, but with a low-placed flare much more modified than that of last season. Both the back and side flares are stressed with the length of skirts from two to four inches below the hollow at the back of the knee. ... Velvet and Velvety What gorgeous things master weavers have done to formal prices this autumn! For afternoon en sembled velvets, such as ii Doge of Venice might have worn, and velvety woolens with a depth and luster which make you yearn to buy them by the bolt Instead of the piece, just for the sheer Joy ofl possession, are prominent. Suedo-finishcd cloths and broad cloths have a- formal character too. which makes them correct for autumn afternoons. Fine Frock Fabrics With the velvet coat, the velvet frock, perhnps In the lighter weight transparent type, Is an almost in evitable choice. But, if you elect a fur-trimmed ensemble with skirt, blouse and two-thirds to three-fourths length Jacket or even seven-eights length metal cloths as sheer as silk and as gay as a summer print, or satin, which is smarter In tho egg-shell shade than white, may form a wise! blouse choice. j Aix'CKsorlcs Challenge Interest i When your suit Is finished nnd ; you sally forth with the sample of fabric In hand to select ynuTj accessories, your shoes will per- j haps come first. For afternoon I wear, the pump Is still the favor- j Itn choice of the smartest women,! nnd suede Is first on the fabric! list. Dark red nnd dark green j suede which exactly match the! coat have fashion's approval. ' Black., in suede or kid with some: reptilian trimming, goes with nl-1 most everything, and brown has ; a versatile charm which permits I It to be linked with red, brown, or green ensembles. j Those w ho feel that style Is an j Inconstant, fluttering thing will perhnps be Interested In something a shoe manufacturer of high type1 footwear told me tho other day. I was ndmlrlng a certain simple, well-cut pump In his show room j when he said: "We have been mnk Ing thnt same pump for the last! six years, nnd It is selling just as! well today ns ft did then. Prov-; Ing that simplicity Jg enduring,; and that when women find a real-! ly smart, becoming style they cling to It. i Hose and (love j There Is some talk of matching! gloves to pumps green gloves with green pumps, red, dark brown, or! black gloves with tho same hued i footwear but, on the whole, the; safest rule, nnd one with a guar- i antee of good taste, Is that of1 matching gloves and hose In some j tone of beige.

Where it was once simply a stape article of diet, used as a single land particular foodstuff, Its avail ability as an Ingredient for many delicious cooked and uncooked dishes, where Its high protein min eral and vitamin value make It of importance in tho meal plan, is now limited only by the Ingenuity of the cook. It is used in all coun tries, and the long rang" of flav ors makes it possible to devise such combinations with other foods, thaUby a wise selection from the many forms of cheese nicely packaged In convenient size, now available in our markets, all tastes and i) references, nil occasions nnd all opportunities for cheese service may be taken care of adequately and with distinction. Cheese has the best of manners w hen In t rod uced t o f ru 1 1 s, hot h canned and fresh.

One of the cheese dishes which Is attractive and which combines the salad nnd cheese service most happily Is tho cheese ring.
