The Well-nressed Woman.

The we'll woman again knows
not only what to wear, but when to
wear it. In the summer forenoon you
will see her in the simplest of cottons,
dress absolutely plain and without
ornament, without laces, fringes, decora-
ton of any kind. la the winter at the
same time she is equally plainly dressed
in cloth. Later in the day she changes
to smarter clothes for more ceremon-
ious duties, visits, afternoon parties,
and teas-velvets and silks combined
in winter, in summer rich gauzes and
costly laces. In the evening, for din
ner or ball, the most choice and splen-
did masterpieces of the dress makers
art are reserved; the richest
stuff set off with the most ell
aborate embroideries and the rarest
jewels. But withal, even in this
the last gorgeous stage into which the
modern chrysalls has developed, osten-
tatious display is scrupulously avoided.
The highest art is to conceal art; to
use the richest materials in composing
the utmost simplicity. There is no
heaviness, no overlooking with orna-
ment, no meaningless superadded deco
ration. The attire of perfectly
dressed woman is original without ex'
centricitv; personal to herself, yet fol-
lowing the latest fashion; attractive,
yet ur.demonstrative- to the
utmost her peculiar charms. --American
Queen.

Eha Early American Politician.

In 1858 Harvard College was opened
with class Of nine students. The col
lege was principally started for the pur-
pose of educnting clergymen to minister
to the spiritual wants of the colonists.
It is curious circumstance that these
nine Young men were graduated Sep
tembe1 Is, 1912. the day that Cromwell
fought the battle Of Wooster, and all
but two returned to England to engage
il the civil war. One OF those young
men hat, y career truly remarkable.
This WAS George Downing, son Of
George Downing, of Salem, Mass. He
made his way by force and intelligence
to be the light hand man of Cromwell.
After Cromwell's death: and after
Charles II. came to the throne, Downing
performed feat almost unparalleled in
history. When the chief men Of the
former government were being hunted to
the ends of the world Downing played
his part so we'll that he managed to Sc
cure the same place under Charles that
he held under Cromwell. He sacrifice
ed his old friends without a twinge of
conscience. Charles made him minister
to Holland, and Downing street was
named after him. We are apt to think
in these days that the inscriptions
politician is thing Of recent date, but
none of them have succeeded III beating

the New England Genealogical Society.

The strong leather belt, black, dark
red or blue, is considered an almost in
dispensible adjunct Of the travelling cos
tune.
Embroidered braid is elegant but
costly. Partisan ladies enabroider with
their own hands delicate running pat

or dark colored haaids, which they use
for trimming underdresses, Jackets and
mantles. This easy, pretty work is
very effective, be the pattern ever so
simple.
Wooden guipure lace comes in all the
new shades of dark ana light winter
materials. Sometimes it is inter nixed
with threads of gold, silver or steel.
Tor young ladies' charming evening
dresses are made of Keeling, surah,
wooden, muslin, or crepe. point
ed or brocaded and trimmed with
number Of cockade and star shap ed

Wheat Growing.

Exhaustive tillage is working mischief
with western wheat growers; they are
drawing recklessly on theis soil depos.
its; sterility will soon relieve Chicago
elevators of their plethoric supplies ;
there is limit to the fertility of virgin
soil, and when it is reached, wheat and
other grains will command higher
prices. Till then, New York and other
Eastern farmers will find it for their
interest to grow wheat very moderately.
When spring crops have introduced
thistles aud weeds, a we'll worked sum-
mer-fallow is the best means of purifi-
cation and the best preparation for fall
seeding with Red Top and Timothy ;
either wheat or rye should be sown
with grass seed. The only condition
on which Eastern farmers can raise
wheat at present prices is that they
work their land so thoroughly, and ma
nure it 80 highly, that their average yield
shall not fall below 80 bushels to the
acre.-Rural New Yorker.

Sensible Advice to Workingmen.

The last Bulletin OF the American
Iron and Steel Association contains the
following advice to workingmen, which
is worthy Of being thoughtfully consid-
cred by many who are not worllingmen:
"Begin now to save where you can; re-
solve to wear the old coat another win
ter; leave the buying Of expensive roasts
and tenderloin steaks to those who can
afford them; learn to distinguish be-
tween food that is cheap and nourlsh-
ing and food that is high in price; ii
you cannot afford a visit by railroad to
q far-oif cousin or other relative who
has enough to do to take care Of him.
self, stay at home; home is the best
place. any way. Cease copying of the
rich; all cannot be rich; keep in your
station, but honor it; respect yourself
by not pretending to be better oil In
this worlds goods than YOU are; shun
thf, grog shop, and. if you must be
slave to tobacco, let this slavery take
as little money from your pocket as pos
sible. Whatever your wages may be,
don't fool them away Take them home
when earned, and thank Providence
that tie enterprise and skill Of others
have given YOU the opportunity to earn
even low wages so that YOU may have
even humble home. Be thankful for
what you have, and be cheerful. Don't
grumble, don't drink tire-water, keep
at work, save the pennies, and you Will
get along This is q goodiy land, ana Ii
there is anything wrong with tie idus-
tries of the country to-day 1t will be
righted by and Blythe Iron Age.

A Return to Doublet and Hose.

For some time past the gilded youth
of France and England have mingled
their laments with those of the tailors
that their lot has been cast in an age
given over to so complete prosiness
Of costume. They sigh for fashions of
the sixteenth and seventeenth centu-
ries; they yearn after slashed double t
and bran stuffed trunk hose, or for the
more graceful array of the Stuarts or
for the variegated dress Of the Georges,
with it's gold and silver embroidered
coats and waistcoats, its hip-pockets Of
huge dimensions, it's wigs, it's knee
brooches and silk stockings, and, later,
its Hessian boots And it is said that
in France some of these aspiring youths
have actually revolutionized the male
evening costume this very winter by
discarding the "customary suit of SOL
emn black" and induing themselves
with gay and particolored raiment, all
of the olden time The use of velvets,
satins and silks for mems coats is
to be revived, and thus the wealthy are
to gain opportunities for indicating the
plethoric condition of their purses by
the expense and gorgeousness Of their
external decorations. N. Y. Tribune.

bage, cook briskly, stirring often, I'M
til it almost begins to fry; then dish it
up and keep it hot till served.
Second.--Put another howlful Of the
cabbage in the frying pan, add vinegar
to make it sufficiently sour. and let it
heat we'll through. Serve very hot.
Third.-To the cabbage remain
ing in tho kettle add SUI
fcient creamy sweet milk to form
a pleasant accompaniment; salt more
if necessary: let it almost boil, and
it is done. Serve hot. It is extremely
nice.
Another nice dish is combination of
turnips and cabbage. II may be nearly
half turuip, which should be- sliced thin
and cut in fine strips resembling shaved
cabbage. Cook in little water, sea-
soning with salt, pepper and small
piece of butter. Cook till very tender,
stirring often. It may be served as
cooked, or with the addition of vinegar.
Or, creamy, sweet milk may be added
and allowed to simmer before serving,
also more salt if necessary. If all be
adroitIy done, even Dutchman il un-
enlightened, would scarcely suspect
that it is not what it seems--all cab
bage.

2AE HOUSE OF CLAY.

There was house, house of clay,
Wherin the inmates sang all day,
Merry and poor.
For Hope sat likewise heart to heart,
Fond and kind--fond and kind,
Vowing he never would depart
Till all at once he changed his mind
"Sweetheart good Bye" he slipped away,
And shut the door.
But Love came past, and looking in
With Smiles that pierced like sunshine thin,
Through wall. roof, floor,
Stood in tho midst of that poor room,
Grand and fair-grand and fair,
Making a glory out Of gloom,
Till at the window Knocked old care
Love sighed all lose and nothing VIM"
He shut the door.
Then DER the barred house Of clay,
Kind jasmine and clematis gray
Grew ererInorc--
And bees hummed merrily outside
Loud and stronghold and strong,
The inner silentness to hide,
The Steadfast silence AL day long
Till evening touched with finger gray
Tho close-shut door.
Most like tho next that passes BY
viii be the angel whose calm eye
Marks rich, marks poor;
Who, palsing not ut any gate,
Stands aud calls-stands and calls;
At which tho inmate opens straight
Whom Gro the crumbling clay house falls,
He takes in kind arms silently
And shuts the door.
