Like so many other functional parts of a modern house, windows today have improved considerably in de- sign and construction. There was «a time when archi- tects and builders hesitated to use large window areas because of the great heat losses they caused. Today the trend is just the opposite, because double glass, weather-stripping, and careful construction where the window frame and the wall join have largely eliminated windows as sources of excessive heat losses. Special Rice Pudding On cook's night out, Billie Burke prepares her favorite dessert, rice pudding, for her family. The actress acquired this recipe from her mother and it is on the weekly menu at the Burke home. 2 eggs cooked rice 2 cups milk 15 tsp. salt: 5 cup raisins 1% cup sugar 14 tsp. cin- 1 tablespoon namon powdered 114 eup sugar Separate the whites and yolks of the eggs, add to the yolks two tablespoons of the milk and place the rest of the milk on the fire in double boiler. Wash raisins, put them in the milk and cook until soft (156 min,) Add rice, cook five minutes longer, then stir in the yolks of the eggs and the salt, sugar and spice. Stir well cook for two or three min utes, remove from fire and pour pudding into serving dish. Beat the whites of eggs light, and sugar, spread the meringue on top of the pud- ding and brown delicately in the oven. Serve cold. Fashion Flashes Tweeds used for suits include a number of smooth-face tex- tures which drape and tailor weil, Checks and herringbone are the two favorite patterns. Of these, shepherd checks in black and white with red crossbars look es- pecially right in these simple jacket suits. . . * straight Suit jackets run from less than wrist-length to veally long tunic types, these shown with fitted top-coats in three-piece schemes. Daguerreotype revers, small and high are much used in_combina- tion with shoulder yokes #md no- velty pockets. Set-in belts are popular, too. Skirts stick to a generally narrow outliné in' which box or decp side pleats stitched "through the hips achieve the com- bination of slimness and free- dom. -« * %* There are many amusing de- tails in the new collections, such as buttons copied from old seals, buttons shaped like thimbles, belts fastened with "needle and thread." Other details include two eyes at the neckline of a black dinner frock with critical tear drops falling below the waist- line. * * © - Off-fqge hats and berets inspir- ¢d by Holbein portraits arouse interest. Applauded ones include a youthful, head-fitting, long backed bonnet in black Persian lamb and felt. A black velvet bonnet edged with green and orange quills (vossing at front is another. . Tucked and pleated crowns ave features of new sports hats, Otherwise they are high, brim- med and forward-tilting with simple quill trimming. Some hombergs and bretons are shown. ° . ? "hy Since so much attention is be- ing given coats, suits, hats and other articles, of apparel that bor- row from the man's wardrobes, it follows that accessories must conform. For instance, 'shirts are tremendously important. in blouses, and it is suggested fo wear a mannish scarf or tie, with a huge single-jewel pin like-a to- paz or aquarmarine cabochon; the tie itself can be of a gayly pattern fabric in the manner of . men's ties, EL] L] Recommended for wear under brown coats are smoky tones of brown with gray overtones, tau- pes, pale blues, soft blues and green blues, Greens in olive tones are good selections, and golden yellow in a dull mustard tone is an interesting novelty.

Elizabeth is fur- ther incensed when Darcy snubs Mr. Wickham, the son of his late steward. Bingley's sister Caroline appeals to Darcy to help her break up her brother's growing attach. ment to Jane, Since Darcy believes he has won the battle of his own dislike of her family over his hon- est love for Elizabeth, he promises Caroline to do the same for Bing- ley. CHAPTER EIGHT Darcy, remembering only the warmth and delight of their en- counter at Lady de Brough's, was bewildered and hurt by Elizabeth's constant refusal to see him. The Jast day of her visit, Charlotto camo to his rescue, and suggested he await Elizabeth's return from a walk, . If the meeting was unexpected, it loft Elizabeth unmoved. A heavy silence fell' upon them as ho stood before her, trying to find the words which would pene- trate her hostility. He threw pre- amble to the winds. "Blizabeth!" he cried suddenly. "These weeks since I left Nether- field have been arid. Meaningless days and nights. I thought I could put you out of my mind, But It's no use. I can struggle against you io longer. I can only remember that I love you. I love you." "Mr. Darcy!" She stared at him in consternation. "Do you know what you are saying?" "Yes, my darling," he answered joyously. "I'm asking you to marry me." driving me almost frantic! MR.

"Do you think anything could induce me to accept the man who has deliberately destroyed my els- ter's happiness? The sweetest soul who ever lived?' Her voice broke, and she struggled to control her tears. "How could you do it? Know- ing Jane--how could you hurt her so?" : "I did contrive to separate Char- les Bingley from your sister," he hink you ex- aggerate the intensity of your sls ter's. feelings--" "I tell you she loved him!" El fzabeth cried. "And I take your word for it," he answered slowly, "But I ask you to take my word that I honestly thought her Indifferent--" "That was not your reason for separating them," she accused. "You have other reasons, Mr. Dar- cy. We're not well off; we have an uncle in trade; and an aunt who is married to a country at torney. That's why you didn't want Mr. Bingley to marry Jane." "Toward him, it! would seem, I have been kinder than toward my- self," he replied, his own anger rising. "Am I supposed to be glad that your family fs inferior to mine? Do you expect me to rejoice over the lack of propriety that your mother and youy younger sis- ters have shown?" "Mr. Darcy!" she cried warning- ly, but he rushed on: "I make no apologies for what I have said. If I had wanted to flat ter you I should have pretended that no doubts ever crossed my mind. But I esteem you too highly for flattery, I have told you frank- ly the obstacles I had had to over- come--" "And now," she interrupted furi- ously, "I suppose nothing remalns but for on winning the battle between your inclinations and my own unworth- fness! It seems a pity you couldn't have shown some of the samp spirit fn your treatment of poor Mr. W .ck- ham--"" At th mention of Wickham's name, Darcy paled. "Where Wick: ham {is concerned, I choose to re main silent," he answered. "In other words -- yon dare to speak!" "His Word Against Mine?" He stared at her Incredulously. "You are ready to take Wickham's word against mine? That's your op- infon of me?" "Let us end this distasteful sub- joct," she retorted. "Your arro- gance, your conceit, your selfish disregard of other people's feelings have made mo dislike you from. the first. I hadn't know you a week before I felt you were the last man in the world I could ever be pre- vailed upon to marry." g Darcy drew back. "Yon have said quite enough, Madame," he replied coldly. "I understand your feelings and have now only to be ashamed of what my own have been," With a curt bow, he left her, Elizabeth watched him go, her whole being shaken with rage at his pride, and the hurt of the love; she had denied.

"Astronomers are trying to de- termine whether the universd is stationary or, as some contend, is expanding at an explosive rate which eventually would bring its destruction.
