Just below is a leather bracelet into which is tucked a lip-stick. ·
Below that is a three- stranded fur collar for which a georgatta back- ing might be used.
It is fastened with out- size decorative hooks, and eyes a sample of which you see sketcfied above it.
HOW do you
like the
spray of flowers at the throat the high-necked frock on the immediate right? These should be as flat
as possible, because you want a matching spray to pin or stitch on to the back of each of your gloves; or, not to overdo" the thing, why not the left glove only?

CHAPPELLE
HE thinnest velvet square tucked into a breast pocket; gloves slit up the back instead of the front; flower heads slotted through a belt-these are just a few of the amusing ideas suggested by Victoria Chappelle to lend gaiety and chic to your autumn ensemble,
Your belt? Make it of practical for day-time, but for felt or suede and cut the evening it would take all the slots in it. Through these puil little odds-and-ends which usually four or five little felt flowers, ruin an evening bag. and button it at the side. See sketch on left.

APPLE
IT is such a good year for apples that|
housewives are wondering what to
velvet or thin black suede. Ono should be placed well below your shoulder, and the other in front
of your hip; both could have flaps and, if you like, an inverted plent in the centre.
On the plainest of your wool dresses (or on a jacket which fastens up to the throat) you coukl wear a collar made like the one in the centre of the sketch, with a narrow fur, border and tied together at the throat.
The gloves shown are the newest kind, which open at the back instead of in the palm. Like the collar, they have a fur ering and the same kind of tie-ups.

HARVEST
By Doris KNIGHT
do with the tremendous amount of fruit they are gathering from their trees at present. Windfalls are inj profusion, and there are plenty of
ways of using these so that they are turned into profit- able stores for the winter months.
Apple Jelly is
2
great favourite, and keeps
extremely well. If it is put into small moulds, it makes a good standby for the sweet course, as the little Jellies can be turned out at a moment's notice, surrounded with sliced banana and topped with cream.
Cut the apples into quarters without removing the peel, but taking out the cores and any unsound parts II you are using windfalls. Put into a preserving pan with cold water to come about half way up the fruit, and cook until quite cöft.
Put the pulp into a jelly bag suspended over a bowl and leave to drain all night. Do not attempt to squeeze, or the clearness of the felly will be spollt.
Measure the juice, return to the pan and heat. Add a lemon to cach pint of juice, bring to the ball, then boll fast until a Bitle sets when tested on a saucer. Put into small glass jars or moulds, cover, and do not disturb until the preserve is set. Then store in a cool, dry place.

Apple Ginger Jam
is another favourite which is quite simple the to make. Peel, core and quarter apples, put into the preserving pan, barely cover with cold water and simmer until a pulp. Put through a sieve, return to the pan with b. of preserving sugar and 1⁄4 teaspoonful of round ginger to each pint of pulp. Boil, stirring nearly all the time to pre-. Vent burning, unili it sets when tested. Put into jars and cover.
Golden Sultana Tart is
an Interest-
ing way of using apples on the menu. Line a large tart plate with short crust pastry, and strew a layer of cleaned sultanas over the bottom, Sweeten apple pulp with golden syrup, mix in a well-beaten egg, and on the tort with this mixture. Cover with atrips of pastry arranged in lattice pattern, brush over with beaten egg and bake until browned.
Apple Trifle maken quite
a gala sweet if
plenty of coarsely chopped blanched almonds are mixed in with the sweetened apple puree as well as some chopped crystallised fruits.
Put a layer of sponge cake moistened with sherry at the bottom of a glass bowl, add a good layer of the apple mixture, cover with custard, then decorate the top with crystallised fruits and whipped cream piped un in fancy design.
