IIB winter we start a new chapter in the history

of fashion. Women's Clothes are divided into two On one side are the draperies. opposite camps.

Is the strictly tailored sult, the sporting stock, a mill- tant hat inspired by any country's fighting force, with squared shoulders, and the swaggering walk of the woman who is prepared to stand shoulder to shoulder with her. brother..

That's the spirit of the new modes, exaggerated, arresting. but attractive. Let us interpret them to our everyday needs with an eye at the same time on our natural enjoyment of being abreast of fashion.

Last year fashion had a leaning towards the negation of detall. Cut and first-class material were of leading import- ance. This year taste and effective arrangement of colour and trimming will take precedence.

Wear your skirt as short as is becoming to your height... Outdoor skirts are still tight whilst the "dressy" ones are gored or bell-shaped.

Shoulders are squared up, and sleeves of more importance at the top rather than at the wrist. Above the waist the out- line of the gure must be defined.

Let us consider these changes which are taking place in our wardrobe individually.

First, the winter coat. It fares from the hips into n short wide skirt like a envalry coat. The material must have n

Fruit

Puddings

OCTOBER is a great month'

for fruit: plums dam- sons, pears, blackberries,

apples, and here are a few recipes for making puddings out of them.

Fruit and Tapioca Mould

ANY of these fruits, cook-

ed and strained, will make an unusual mould in this way: for instance, blackberries. Cook the fruit with sugar and water, and when it is quite soft, strain it.

There should be a quart of the cooked fruit before straining. Add 20z, of fine sago or crush- ed tapioca to the juice, and cook until it is transparent. Pour into a mould and turn it out when cold.

As it is a cheap dish, try and be extravagant and have some cream with it!

Apple Amber CUT

up lb. of peeled and cored apples and stew ther until tender. Then add to the puree 2oz. ench of breadcrumbs, but- ter and castor sugar and the yolks of two eggS. Put this mixture into a ple-dish the sides of which you have already lined with a strip of pasiry, and bake for half an hour.

Now pile un top a meringue mix- ture which you have made with the stly whisked whites of the eggs and two tablespoonfuls of custor sugar. Let this set in a slow oven, and then decorate it with glace cherries and angelica. Serve either hot or cold. You could make a mixture of black- berry and apples it. you liked.

Pears en Surprise IF you want a really grand sweet for a party and you have a refrigerator or can get some Ice-cream from a neighbouring shop or tricycle, try this one.

Stew the pears whole (peeled of course) in a syrup flavoured with lemon peel. When they are cold, cut off the top about an inch below the stalk and scoop out the core.

Fill up the hollow with vanilla ice-cream (or even vanilla-flavoured the top whipped cream), stick on

ngain and stand each peur on a piece of toasted cake (sporige or madeira) which you have soaked in a little sherry. This little "stand" may be omitted, but it makes the dish all the nicer.
