schools in New York will not permit

schools in New York will not permit
her pupils to wear dress of any ma
terial save wool or cottOn--the former
in winter, the latter in milder weather.
II they choose. A girl wearing velvet
suit one day was sent home with mes
sage that her dress must be changed to
one adapted to school wear. The mo-
Their of the girl returned with the re-
ply that 1t was a last years suit which
must be utiliz ID or it would be out
grown. But the teacher was intlexible.
She said the school room was no place
for cast of tinery; that the moral effect
was bad, and the final result worse
than the present loss. The lesson was
salutary one.
A school in Massachusetts recon-
mends its 200 girl students sensible
school dress of which the following are
some of the features: First, it is to con-
sist of single layers of clothing, so that
warmth shall be equally attributed
over the body. Secondly, it should be
sufficiently loose not to impose restric-
tons upon the free and active use of
the muscles. Thirdly. the materials

unpretentious in pattern. Fourthly, the
design should suggest rather than out
line the figure, unless the material is
elastic, and should be divided into few
parts in order to be free from distrac-
tons. Filthy, it should avoid what.
ever is unnecessary, or that takes time
and strength that could be better put
into work or play.
The combination undergarment of
knitted wool or cotton, or both, the
skirt of pleated wool attached to lin
ing waist cut with spring over the
hips, and polonaise or woven ''jer-
sey" supplies all the requirements for
such dress. If the polonaise is en-
ployed, the lining waist may be ex-
tended SO as to require only deep
pleated tlounce of wool to bring 1t to
the length of the walking skirt, thus
rendering it lighter and cheaper
The polonaise should be pleated at
the back, part of the fullness taken
out of the waist, and cut with whole
sack front, which could be belted in.
All sleeves should be cut very high,
and somewhat full at the top, so as to
surround the arm at the socket and al
low free movement. Dress skirts should
be made of wool and attached to the
lining waist, as this equalizes both
warmth and weight - The Teacher.

DINING ROOM AND KITCHEN.

Handsome cushions add to the beauty
of the willow or rattan chairs, SO. gen
orally used now. These should be of
the exact shape of the chair seat, and
not more than four inches thick; if cov-
cred with plush, put about five buttons
on each to keep it in shape. If these
bright cushions are used the ribbons in
the back are not needed, and as they
soil and become wrinkled SO soon, it is
good idea not to put them in.
A nice dish is made by chopping the
meat of boiled chicken until it is
about Ike mince-meat for pies, then
cut the liver in thin slices, put layer
of the minced chicken in the bottom of
pudding dish, then lay the liver over
it, then the res OF the chicken should
be put in with plenty of salt, pepper,
and butter. Make nice little gravy
of the chicken broth, pour this over the
chicken, over the top put crust of not
too rich paste. Bake adelicate brown.
One way to prepare the dressing for
lobster salad is to beat the yolks OF four
eggs very light, then add one table
spoonful of sugar, two OF butter, one
of salt, two of vinegar one Of mustard.
Add the whites of the eggs last, first
beating them until they are stiff. Put
this mixture in bowl, set it in pan of
hot water, and let it set until it thick
ems; when il is cold add enough cream
to make the dressing about like boiled
custard The lobster, if Teamed, should
be looked over carefully, and then be
picked in small pieces; scatter a little
salt over it and very little cayenne
pepper before putting the dressing
over. This should not be done until
the sal I'd is ready for the table.
If you object decidedly to the odor OF
beets when boiling, and on that ac-
count do not have them on the table as
often as you would otherwise like, try
this way of preparing them. Boil more
than the quantity required for one
meal in sailed water, and OF course
with their jackets on. Do not remove
the skins from those that you are not
going to use that day; set them in some
cool closet and when you wish to serve
them remove the skin, cut the beets in
slices, pour hot water over them, after
putting them in sauce pan, and let
them stand on the stove until hot.
Very pretty baskets are made of the
seine Irvine; you can hardly think how
pretty they are until you have seen one.
Both work baskets and larger ones for
waste paper are crocheted Of the cord;
they are round and may be of shell
stitch or the common close crocheted
work. On the bottom a projecting rim
must be crochoted so that the basket
will have a firm foundation. After il
is finished with a scallop, melt some
white glue, dip the basket into it, and
shape it over mould or jar of the
proper size and shape. A basket made
in this way is very ornamental, if two
rows of openwork space are left in the
middle through which bright ribbons
may be run. A bow where they join IL
a pretty addition. Line the basket witt
silk or satin if YOU wish it to be very
handsome, or with silesia il for ordina
nv use--NeW York Post.
