AReyfvaI of Aprons.

1t is becoming fashionable again to wear
aprons, There are many different designs in
the windows-some of them pretty, some of
them useful as well, and few peculiar in
shape, but all of them pleasing Lawn ten
mis- knitting and embroidery aprons, all are
designed for the same purpose, to hold the
balls, whether of silk or worsted, darning
cotton or rubber. The lawn tennis apron,
of stout oatmeal cloth, has shallow pockets.
The housewives apron is made like the en-
broidery apron, of stouter material, however,
than this last, which is usually of white dot
ted muslin The hem is turned up fully half
a yard deep on the right side, and stitched
with compartments. These are useful to
hold the different materials of embroidery or
plain work, and to hold the scissors, spool
and thimble, or the stocking you are darning,
when you have, as the busiest women do, to
Jump up a dozen. times an hour to attend to
little folks or attend to household matters
The same deep, divided pockets are useful in
setting a room to rights. Bits of string go
into one pocket, wrapping paper in another,
and 1t saves steps to sort these as you go
along. The third compartment may be to
hold rubbish that is to go in the ash barrel.
A cooking apron is to protect the dress, but
need not be very full. pretty pattern has
three widths of striped calico. The middle
breadth is the front of the apron. and ls
sharply gored on both sides to Ghe belt. The
other breadths are not joined to the Deit,
except for an inch on eacn sloe, Dut are sIn-
ply hemmed across the top and fastened to
each other at the back by one button. You
can give them any slope you like at the top,
as they need not touch the waistband, but are
| drawn back so as to entirely cover and pro-
tect the sides of the dress from -four or stain:
| If your material is not wide enough, add
the gored pieces to the side breadths. The
bib is cut wide across the breast, and has two
| long ends that button around the neck ;
make the piece in the form of tall letter u.
| The belt buttons around the waist, so that
the whole slip is fastened by three buttons.
As it is impossible to roll up the modern
| tight sleeves, protect these with the straw
| cuffs or with brown holland sleeves that
fasten with rubber band at the top.

Law Committee of thePrivy Council expic-

the natural and ordinary meaning of lam
guage, the income of a bank or trade for any
given year would be understood to be the
gain, if any, resulting from the balance of
the profits and losses of the business in that

A very unpleasant feeling prevails in
Brooklyn, New York, over the exclusion of
the Unitarians, Universalists and Sweden
borgians from the privilege of parading the
streets with the rest on the annual Sunday
school marching day." The statement is
made in defence of this practice by the off,
GERS of the Brooklyn Sunday School Union
that the parade is not one of all the schools
in Brooklyn, but only of those which belong
to the Union. The New York San says con-
cerning the matter 1.-THE outsiders who are
excluded do not belong to the Union sim.
ply for the reason that the Union gives
thsn the cold shoulder as to membership,
just as it does in regard to parade The
Union is managed by a select company OF
very nice gentlemen who are so well satisfied
with their own orthodoxy that they are not
willing to take the risk of contaminating it
by associating with those whose sdoxy' is at
all questionable. The curious feature of the
affair as it now stands is that in the Eastern
District of Brooklynsthe Universalists have
for years been mingling and marching with
the rest, and no evil has come of it. At the
Sunday school conventions which have been
held in Kings county within the last two or
three years the Universalists have been pres
ent as freely as any of the rest, and have par
taken with the others of the lunch generous
ly spread for all who wished to refresh them
selves. These conventions, however, were
not managed by the Brooklyn Sunday School
