Rub the stain with a cloth molsten- ed with vinegar and water to remove any stickiness. Dry thoroughly. Using very fine sand paper and 3 rotary movement gently rub mark all round in order to make the surface absolutely smooth. Between every three or four rubs with the sandpaper rub hard with a good oily furniture polish. Repeat until a good surface is obtained..

What is the cause of a curdled sauce an veal fricasse?
Curdling is likely to occur due to cooking the sauce or keeping it at a high temperature for more than a few minutes after adding the egg yolks instead of merely re-heating it and serving immediately. If it is necessary to add the yolks and cream some time before required curdling can be avoided if the fricasse is kept hot. In a bowl surrounded by hot water instead of in direct contact with the stove.

Is there any special treatment for teak garden' furniture?
When the furniture is now it should have a daily olling for a couple of weeks. Linseed oil is the best le use but an oil polish will give the same result. The oil will help to preserve the wood from rotting in the rain or cracking in the sun. Such 'a 'trent- ment once a month

TALL HATS
ROWNS are up in the world again, but in no ordinary fashion. They are tucked, shaped and graded in a most amazing manner and, what 14 more important, they are going to suit the averago woman.
Treated in this way, they have a much softer look, which makes the styles easily adaptable to different types of faces.
High hats last winter simply had the effect of making many of us look top heavy, so I made it my business whito at the shows to see what Paris thought of the now tall hat iden
Added Height Feathers fly high, as you can see in the sketch, and give added height and distinction to end's hat. Maybe it's n pair of quills, or perhaps an ostrich plume, but you'll be in the news if your hat is trimmed with a feather,
Sketched are three models from the autumn collections-two from Madame

Styles are not all for the very young. The now upward sweep of the hair leaves curls in view and enables hats to be worn forward and angled at a smart tilt. In fact, I have scen more millinery suitable for matrons this season than for many a year.
Velvet Toques
There is a determined effort to bring back the toque and, while some aro swathed affairs, others are of velvet arranged in soft folds, but ali hayo an Edwardian look about them.
Let the girls have their turn first Illustrated in one of the new sports hots from Erik. These are very danh- ing and have a distinctly swashbuck- lng air with their turned up brims and important crowns.
There's a tendency, too, tá combina two colours, choose your hat to match your sult or coat and have the trimming in a contrasting hue.
Some of the newest combinations aro blotting paper grey with maroon or kingfalier blue, moss green with red and canary yellow, navy and wine. stone blue and brick, carrot and fog
blue.
The model illustrated is in red brown felt trimmed with a black ribbon and a towering black feather.
Which reminds me that there will be a lot of black hats during the coming The two other models aro season. carried out in all black and show what can be done with cleverly worked crowns
These are for the older women; the gli toque shape at the bottom has an cdging of skunk, whße black quills give
an illusion of height to the wide- .... brimmed hat....
There are also small huts which are not really small, a cuff-like point on either side giving suficient width to make them becoming to the majority of faces, especially where foreheads are broad and chins too rounded.
So when buying a new hot choose dashing curly brimmed styles, postillon shapes with crowns of moderate height if you are twenty; pill-box_styles” of hatter's plush trimmed with curly ostrich plumes are for smart young married; while matrons will prefer wide-brimmed. fells and toques.
But whatever your age. If you fancy a veil, wear it, and as you like it-tied over the face, flying in the wind, or bunched at the back.

Glory Of White Hair
The lucky possessor of snow- white hair is much in the mode nowadays, when the leading hair- dressers are concocting new and de- leste rinses to make while hair even more chile and becoming than it is already.
Pale blue and lavender rinses are lovely with blue or grey eyes and fair, colouring, while the Invender tint is also attractive with dark eyes.
A new tint, however—and all these rinses leave only the faintest sus- picion of colour, of course--la a palo peach pink which looks really ex- quisite with a fair skin.
Coffee-Coloured Pearls
Necklaces made of dark brown or coffee-coloured pearl beads are very popular just now.
They are especially liked by wo- men who have sun-tanned skins, upon which the pearls are particular- ly becoming.
Usually the pearls are quite large arul the necklaces of "choker" length.
