Hand Embroidery

Everybody embroiders a lingerie waist this time of year, or gets somebody else to do it for her. If it Is a kimono blouse that one is making, then the cross-stitching or French knot design or solid embroidery goes around over the shoulder to the back of the waist without a break, and perhaps branches down into the sleeves as well, for the watat is seamless over the shoulders. But if one has embroidered a front only, then one can make one’s blouse with deep Gibson tucks over the shoulders and sewedln sleeves. The Gibson tucks hide the armhole seam, and a new elbow sleeve they are using with them is plain at the top and rather wide at the bottom, so that one does get precisely the effect of a kimono blouse.

LIVER AIND BACON.—Have the liver out in thin slices, cover with boiling water for a moment or two, then ‘drain and dry. Cover the bottom of the pan with thin slices of bacon and set at the side of the fire where the fat will slowly fry out, pouring It off once or twice, then draw the pan forward until the bacon Is very lightly colored. Transfer it to a hot dish and keep warm. Dust each slice of liver with salt, pepper and flour, put the pan over the hotter part of the fire and quickly cook the meat; the slices should be done through but not hard. Place them in the dish, arrange the bacon round them and serve. If a gravy Is desired sift into the hot pan sufficient dry floqr to abeord the fat, stir until brown and add gradually sufficient boiling water to make a moderately thick gravy. Season, voll for a moment and pour round the liver.
