In WOman’s Realm
Needlework in Many Attractive Designs Has Achieved Much Popu

tration-Footwear Never So Artistic, or So High in Price.

threads, and actual stitching works
out the design. These decorative fea
tures of the new season may be the
inspiration of bead work, which ap
pears along with them, but is not so
popular. It is more tedious to do
and is not superior to the floss in
appearance, and it is not so light in
weight. But the same designs may
be wrought in cither beads or floss.
An afternoon gown of black tulle
over satin pictures a model in which
black and white beads embroider the
tulle overdress in bands. The under
skirt of satin is plaited and joined to
a low sleeveless bodice of satin. The
overdress is very full, with a three
PERFECTION IN SHOES
Inch hem about the bottom. A wide
band of beadwork heads the hem and
a similar band divides the skirt half
way of its length. A narrower design
is worked about the skirt at the hip
line and midway between the two
wide bands. The same designs appear
in short bands on the bodice.
Long sleeves of tulle are finished
with cuffs of satin, and a decoration
of several parallel rows of beads
reaches from shoulder to cuff. The
deep cuffs are adorned with a single
row of the same embroidery. The
round neck makes opportunity for a
wide standing band of tulle. There is
a soft girdle of satin ribbon. Narrow
er satin ribbon hangs in loops and
ends at three places at each side of
the skirt. Black silk stockings and
patent leather slippers complete the
toilet.
No matter how rich the costume
may be this season, its correctness
will be questioned if the shoes are not
up to the high mark of daintiness and
elegance set by the fashions of to
day. Footwear is quiet as to color
and exquisite as to workmanship and
it is light and finished to the last de
gree of excellence. Women have never
been more beautifully shod.
The very short skirt has many faith
ful adherents and the high boot to
wear with it is imperative. It comes
high in more senses than one, for shoes
have advanced greatly in price, with
the prospect pointing to a further ad
vance. But there is no denying the
youthful look of the short skirt or the
charm of neatly clad feet and ankles,
therefore the high boot flourishes in
the face of a shortage of leather.
Two styles in high boots and one
in low shoes are shown in the illus
tration given above. The high shoes
are made in several shades of gray
and in pale tan, or the same models
may be had in black cr white or com
binations of black with all of the
lighter colors. There is a choice of
styles in heels. They are only mod
erately high, whether following the
French or Cuban lines.
The low shoe pictured is a favorite
in black or white. The seams are
outlined with a cut-cut pattern that is
met with everywhere in high-class
footwear.

Briar Stitching Trims Linen Dresses.
A dainty little cotton dress was seen
the other day in a schoolgirl’s outfit.
It was of oyster linen and the hem was
turned up on the right side. The skirt
was cut circular and the discrepancy
of width was arranged in little flaring
"pockets,” a scalloping green briar
stitch encircled the hem, catching the
linen every three or four inches. Lit
tle 6prays of briarstitching were car
ried down from the belt and here and
there tiny rosebuds were embroidered
in. The same stitching was repeated
on the collar and the little dress was a
real "creation.”
HAS WON DESERVED FAVOR
American Cooks More and More Com
ing to Recognize the Advantages
of the Casserole.
Why is this cooking en- casserole, or
in earthenware, so popular in France?
Because in no other way is it possible
to obtain such delicious flavors.
There are three things to remember
in casserole cooking: First, the food
must be entirely prepared before the
baking is begun; second, the oven
should be only moderately hot at first,
then reduced to slow heat; third, the
food should not be allowed to boil and
must be given time enough for long
cooking.
A meat casserole of any kind needs
at least an hour and a half to cook,
while many meats, fruit and desserts
require from three hours upward. In
the old French ovens covered crocks
containing beans, or apples, or fruits,
for the cooked compote so beloved hy
them, were put in the oven at night
to cook slowly until the next morning.
This was a part of the frugality, the
putting to account every bit of meat,
which is still the habit of all French
housewives.
For the best results, or I may say
*he most striking results, get a cheap
cut of meat, which is not liable to be
tender, and see what a transformation
will be worked by the casserole cook
ing. Cut the meat in pieces suitable
for serving, and add some thickening
agent which will absorb the excess
moisture, leaving the food just moist
enough to be served attractively.
Rice is good with game, chicken,
lamb and veal; dried bread crumbs
with pork; macaroni and pearl barley
with beef. Sometimes with young
chicken or tender fish potatoes may
be used, but never when long cook
ing is required, for they cook to a
mush. —Pittsburgh Dispatch.
