Flowers for Evening Wear--Use-
ful Hints.
Inc cheap laces, such as Oriental, Fedora
ana Egyptian, are often cast aside as use
less when once soied, but they may be
washed and done up equal 10 new if little
care IS taken. First, the laces should be
carefully removed from the garment and
put into basin of hot sudS. The best soap
is white CASTLE. Laundry soap is far toe
strong for the delicate fabric. After soak
ing for an hour or SO it should be carefully
cleansed by rubbing between the hands,
and after washing i'll several waters may be
boiled IL much soiIed. The lace should
not be wrung out in the regular
way, but the water pressed out with the
palms of the hands. If narrow lace
for ruchng purposes, starch with a little
clear starch. allowing one teaspoonful to a
pint OF water: otherwise take out of clear
water. While still damp pull gently with
the fingers into proper shape. Dry in the
sunshine, then dampen, and iron over sew
eral thickneSses of flannel. The iron should
be moderately hot. All the points should
be pulled into shape with the fingers and
then ironed. The embroidered laces should
be ironed on the wrong side, so that the
pattern will not be fiattened.
Artificial flowers for evening wear are
again in favor, and old clusters of them
may be rejuvenated and made to do service
again. Fall roses or rosebuds with the top
of the petals faded or crushed may be
turned into new-looking crush roses. Take
a pair of small sharp scissors, cut off the
top OF each petal and curl the end:
backward over the scissors, until the
whole rose is opened. Many other flowers
are improved by the same method, and a
little green paper for new calyx here and
there sometimes adds much to the bouquet.
Clusters of flowers may be formed into the
garlandS now so fashionable for corsage and
drapery.
Black gros grain silk wears so soon that
it is not economical for people in moderate
circumstances. Black satin or the softer
ribbed silks are preferable. A good way
to make over black silk where the waist
is worn Is as follows: Remove the dlapery
and make it into new waist. Instead OF
purchasing new silk buy instead enough
enough black lace to cover the front of the
dress around to the back breadth in fiounces
from the hem to the belt. A black MORE
or silk sash should ornament the back.
This will make far more elegant costume
than the plain black silk and will cost but a
trf1e more.

The Capitol Restaurants.

"Most Of the Senators are good
eaters writes Washington CORE
spondent of the Boston Irareter.
"They enjoy the best that the mar
ket affords, and like to remain for an
hour or two at lunch, unless there is
something of thrilling Importance
transpiring in the Senate chamber.
President pro TEN Sherman is rath-
err a spare eater. He is very partic-
ular and is fond of plain food, but
his appetite is by no means rapa-
cious. 1t is noticeable that most of
the Southern Senator's are fond of
expensive lunches with wines! The
Eastern men as a rule are the most
fastidious. They do not drink as
much wine, but they order more ex-
pensive dishes. The best is hardly
good enough for the Western Sena-
tor, especially if he happens to have
a few political friends with him from
home.
"The house restaurant is an en-
tirely different kind Of an affair from
that in the Senate wing. There is
no holy Of holies.' The representa-
tives and the public take equal chan
ces. Everything is full of hustle
and life. The pop of the cham
payne cork and the swish of the
more humble but still more ferment-
ing whiskey as it disappears down a
customers throat are mingled in
confusion. No attempt is made to
disguise the sale Of liquor, notwith-
standing the joint rule which forbid
it in the capitol. There is hardly
moment during the session when
some Congressman or employe is not
breaking this rule. There are some
hearty eaters in the house. Quite a
number of them are content with
simple bread and milk, but Others
are fond of ordering full course din
ners. Congressman Carlisle has his
meals served in the speakers room
He is dainty eater, and while he
consumes but little, yet he is fond of
complete assortment. The speak
er usually washes it down with some
rare old wines Perry Belmont, of |
New York, is one of the most par
ticular men who come into the house
restaurant. His orders must be |
cooked exactly as he orders or he
will not touch the dish when it is
set before him. Congressman Rob-
ertson of Kentuckey, is the oldest
member about his food. He is ex
travagantly fond of onions Uusal-
ly he orders large dish Of these
vegetables cut raw, and eats them
all with wonderful relish. No mat
ter how crowded the House restau-
rant is, Robertson always has an en-
tire table to himself.'

signs in Wa-Keeney, and the word s'Gov-
eminent" has, in at least one instance,
been served the same way. But to the
circular:
It has come to the knowledge of this
Office that in many towns where United
States land Offices are located, and at
other places, certain land agents and at
torneys adopt the business sign of a
character to represent their offices as
government offices. For example, the
signs may bear the words "United States
land Office" in bold letters of a size to be
readily seen at distance, reading in very
small letters the words tsBusiness done
here" or "Papers drawn here" and that
the effect and apparent purpose of such
signs is to mislead and deceive the pub
lie, particularly settlers and applicants
who are uninformed, and who after these
officers have their papers made out pay
fees and leave their entry money, fully
believing that they have been transacting
business with authorized government
officers. You are authorized to notify
all agents and attorneys in your district
using deceptive or misleading signs or
advertisements of any character that the
use of the same must be forthwith dis
continued, and you will report all such
agents or attorneys to this Office and the
facts in each case in order that proper
steps may be taken to prohibit them
from practice before the land department
and local land Offices,
