How SUMNER SUITS SHOULD BE

made of white or buff linen, pique, cam

the new appearance after washing is mat
ter Of the geatest importance. Common
washerwomen spoil everything with soda,
aud nothing is more frequent than to see
the delicate tints of lawns. and percales
turned into dark blotches and muddy
streaks by the ignorance aud vandalism of a
laundress. 1t is worth while for ladies to
pay attention to this, aud insist upon hav.
ing summer dresses washed according to
directions which they should be prepared
to give their laundresses themselves. In
the first place, the water should be tepid,
the soap should not be allowed to touch
the fabric it should be washed and rinsed
quick, turned upon the wrong side, aud
hung in the shade to dry, and when
starched Tin thin boiled starch) should be
folded in sheets or towels, and ironed upon
the wrong side as soon as possible. But
linen should be washed in water in which
hay or a quart bag of bran has been boiled
This last will be found to answer for starch
as we'll, and excellent for print dresses Of
all kinds, but handful Of salt is very
useful also to set the colors of light cam.

THE AGE OF HORSES.

We 6ud the following in the Southern

colt is born with twelve grinders, when
four front teeth have made their appear
auce, the colt is twelve days old and when
the next four came forth it is four months
old. When the corner teeth appear the
colt is eight months old when the latter
have attained the hight of the front teeth
it is one year old. The two-year old colt
has the kernel, q dark substance) in the
middle front teeth, aud when three years
old they are substituted by the..horse teeth.
The next four teeth are shifted in the
fourth year, and the corner teeth 10 the
fifth. At six years the kernel is worn out
of the lower middle front teeth, and the
bride teeth have now attained to their
full growth. At seven years hook has
been formed in the corner teeth at the up
per Jaw, the kernel Of the teeth next to the
fronts is worn out, and the bride teeth
begin to wear off, At eight years Of age
the kernel is worn out of all the lower
front teeth, and begins to decrease in the
middle upper front. In the ninth year
the kernel has wholly disappeared from
the upper front teeth, the hook on the cor
ner teeth has increased in size, and the
bride teeth lose their points. In the
tenth year, the kernel is worn out of the
middle front of the upper jaw and in the
eleventh year the kernel has nearly vanish
ed from the corner teeth Of the same jaw.
At twelve years old the crown of all the
front teeth in the lower jaw has become
triangular, and the bride teeth are much
worn down. As the horse advances in
age the gums shrink away from the teeth,
which consequently. acquire long, mar
row appearance, and their kernels have be-
come metamorphosed into a darkish point,
gray hairs increase in the forehead, over
the eyes, and the chin assumes the form
