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!"

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

A Catty Halloween Party

AS WE know It now, cheese
is such a diverse product, it
has assumed so many nu
ances of flavor and shape and uses,
that It is universal In its scope.
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

available in our markets, all tastes

all opportunities for cheese service
may be taken care of adequately
and with distinction.
Cheese has the best of manners

that no salad whatever Is complete
without Its accompanying cheese,
and with many a vegetable It is
on the most familiar and friendly
terms. It lends Itself with equal
grace to the most elaborate 123
grace to a simple dinner of veg

elaborate preparation ns a full

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

salad, the richness and piquancy
of the cheese, the contrast In color
