A VKRY ATTRACTIVE STYLE. fmeiix I IVK GOOD CAKKS. The cakes made by these recipes will perhaps be somewhat diflferent from those usually made on baking (lay. The slight difTerptice in either flavor or texture will be found very agreeable, especially at this time of the year when the appetite craves something new. To obtain the best results, use pastry flour for all cakes made with baking powder. l)nt<! and Nut Cake is delicious. It requires one cupful of flour, one cup- ful of sup.ir, one cupful of chopped nut meats, one cupful of dates cut in very small pieces, thrci' eggs, one tea- spoonful of baking powder. Beat whiles of eggs and yolks separately, add half the sugar to each and beat again. Combine mi.vturcs and add flour, baking powder, nuts and dates. Pour in shallow pan and bake in moderate oven. When cold cut in two- inch squares for .serving. Orange Oingerbicad is made with one-half cupful of butter, one cupful of molasses, one egg, one level tea- spoonful of ginger, one level tcas-poon- ful of cinnamon, one level teaspoonful of soda in one-half cupful of cold water, one-half cupful of sugar, one oranpe (juice and grated rind), two and one-half cupfuls of sifted flour and a pinch of salt. Mix butter, sugar and epi; thoroughly, add salt, spices, soda and molasses and half the flour, beat until smooth, then add orange and remaining flour. Bake in a shal- low pan. When done brush with melt- ed butter and sift powdered sugar over the top. Premium CoflTee Cake Is so called because cakes made by this recipe have taken premiums at the county fairs for years: To make, beat one egg with one scant cupful of sugar until creamy. Set aside one table- spoonful of the mixture to be used later. Now add one cupful of sour milk, one-half teaspoonful of soda, one-half cupful of shortening (use less if sour cream Is used) and three cupfuls of sifted flour. Mix, then pour in a round pan and as soon as taken from oven spread the top with the remaining egg and sugar mixture, to which a little cinnamon should be added. Cup Cake, the best ever made: Sifl three cupfuls of flour with two tea- spoonfuls of baking powder six or seven times, then work together thor- 4701-4700.

Bella Bathgate looked round the grim chamber that was to her as the apple of her eye, and sighed for the an interested way. "It's a beautiful color â€" orange- -but" she pushed it away â€" "I don't think I can eat it." She drank some tea and ate a bak- er's roll, which was excellent; then she rang the bell. When Bella appeared she at orice noticed the headless but uneaten egg, and, taking it up, smelt it. "What's wrang wi' the egg?" she demanded. "Oh, nothing," said Pamela quickly. "It's a lovely egg really, such a beau- tiful color, but" â€" she laughed apolo- getically â€" "you know how it is with dining-room, or largfe comfortable "Aweel," she said, "I'll pit them in a kist until ye gang away'. I've never had lodgersa fore." And as she car- ried out the tray there was a baleful gleam in her eye as if she were vow- ing to herself that she would never have them again. Pamela gave a gasp of relief when the door closed behind the ung^'acious back of her landlady, and started when it opened again, but this time it was only Mawson. She hailed her. "Mawson, we must get something done to this room. Lift all these vases and photographs care- fully away. Miss Bathgate says sne will put them somewhere else in the meantime.

Remember, the wall is al- ways acting like the reflector of a lamp; it is catching and throwing back into the room every scrap of light that comes in at the window, and you increase or decrease this according to the color of the reflector. Sometimes the room is exceedingly bright and sunny, almost a glare. Then use the darker, duller papers â€" the softer grays, the greens, or blues. Avoid the yellows, and the bright, light colors. Greens, blues, and reds "Then I wish I could have my meals there, too." "Oh, Miss!" cried Mawson in hor- ror. "Does Miss Bathgate talk to you, Mawson?" "Not to say talk, Mis.i.

And it's surprising some- times to find out how much the color of the walls, the floor, the ceiling, or curtians have to do with it. No room in your house is entirely successful unless the family loves It, and each time they go into it feel ils cheerful honiiness and nttrnctivenes.s. Rut the.se (|untities are not n matter of sheer luck. They come with "know how." And n little knowledge of what to do under certain circumstances comes in mighty handy to the house- wife. The short articles here can give (inly a few of these prnrticnl points, but the author hopes that you will feel free to come to her with your own purliculnr problems nnd questions, and she will he only ton glad to do all she can to help answer them. For to-day just a word al)OUt tho color of your walls. Walls are the most important single ilemenl in the room. They set the light, and the room ii dark and gloomy or gay, plea- sant, nnd cheerful, according to what gm's on those walls. Color is the first thing to look for. Light pnpers make dnrk room.i'. Useful, when you con- sider that dnrk. narrow hall, small where the room is small or has the slightest tendency to dullness or gloominess. Keep them for bright, airy, sunny places. One more point: Ceilings nnd floors are also a part of your "reflector," Match them carefully to your walls, keeping the ceiling lighter and the floor a little darker than the wall color. Then we retain tho comfort- able feeling of openness above, like the sky out of doors; and of solidity underneath, like the ground; and we have a comfortable range of color which goes far toward making an attractive room. FOR COLD DRINKS. Iced tea and lemonade served at my house are always welcomed with especial delight, and they are good â€" particularly so â€" all because of a lit "But you're bigger than Miss Bath- gate," Mhor pointed out "You needn't be afraid of her. I'll ask her, if you like." Pamela heard him cross the passage and open the kitchen door and begin politely. "Good morning. Miss Bath- gate." "What are ye wantin' here wi' thae dirty boots?" Bella demanded. "I came in to see the Honorable, and she has nothing to give poor Peter to eat. Could he have a tea bis- cuit â€" not an Abernethy one, please, he doesn't like them â€" or a bit of cake?" "Of a' the impidence!" ejaculated way.

And it is possible now, only because the Chevrolet Car and Chevrolet business prin- ciples have been so universally and so favorably received. Chevrolet production has, as a result, rapidly grown in voliune until now Chevrolet is the world's largest manufacturer of quality automobiles. Chevrolet quality is more than apparent. For, the more closely Chevrolet is examined and the more severe the tests demanded, the more con- vincingly is Chevrolet quality demonstrated and proved. Moreover, day by day continuotis service brings out another economy equal, if not greater in importance, than Chevrolet's remarkably low first cost.
