NEAT KITCHEN GOWNS.
How and of What Materials They Should
he Made.

Seersucker and gingham are no doubt
the most serviceable materials for
kitchen gowns. They are more expen-
sive than calico. but wear much better.
Fine checks in blue and white and brown
and white gingham, and the seersuck-
ers in hair lines of different colors,
which are so thoroughly "color-proof'
that they may be boiled, are to be COM
mended for this purpose. These dresses
should be made in simple style, with
full "housemaid" skirts, finished with
n simple hem or hem and cluster of
tucks and no drapery, or a simple sash
drapery at the back and a round belted
waist with or without yoke, according
TO the figure of the wearer. Wrappers
are an exceedingly untidy garment, fit
only for the invalid, and should be dis
carded for other wear. The house
dress should be short enough fully to
clear the floor and display Il neatly tied
low shoe instead of slipper or boot.
A large white apron, which may be
made OF cambria or II sheerer material,
as the wearer fancies, should always be
worn in the kitchen. Such an
apron is much cleanlier than gingham,
the sole recommendation OF which that
it can not show dirt will not for mo-
ment commend it to neat wonsn.
The advantages of n white apron are
many. Fruit stains can be readily re-
moved by processes which would spot
and disHgure any colored cotton. They
may be boiled, bleached and subjected
to the most thorough cleansing pro-
cesses, and they are dainty and taste
full. A kitchen apron should measure
from yard and n half TO two yards in
width and should reach nearly TO the
bottom of the dress. Bibs are not worn
with these aprons. The tasteful house
wife OF to-day prefers TO complete her
kitchen outfit with folded kerchief OF
muslin, which will entirely protect the
front OF her dress, and, like the apron,
may be boiled and blcached. The Eng
lish habit OF wearing cluse covered
cap which covers the hair is generally
adopted in cooking schools and pre-
vents the hair becoming lmpregnated
with the odor OF cooking and is GER
tainly neat and becoming addition to
the kitchen toilet.-M y Tribune.

The King and the Singer.

NJ. Lablache, the famous singer, has
just given another instance of the pro-
verbal Observation-Disclosures of great men.
While he was staying at Naples, King
Humbert expressed a desire to make
the artists personal acquaintance. On
entering the ante-chamber of the
palace the latter found that the gentle
men present were all personal ac-
quaintances of his, and asked them to
be allowed to keep his hat on, as he
was suffering from severe cold. A
lively conversation was cut short by
the entrance of chamberlain announce
ing that the King would receive NJ.
Lablache at once. In the momentary
confusion the singer forgot that he was
wearing his hat, took hold OF another
which had been placed on n chair near
him, and went before his Majesty, who
at the sight of him burst into fit of
uncomfortable laughter. Utterly con-
fused, NJ. Lablache asked humbly to be
informed of the reason OF the Kings
merriment. "Let me ask you a ques-
tion first" replied the King, (Which
is your hat-the one you are wearing
on your head or the one you carry in
your hand?" Confound it ALL" cx-
claimed Lablache, joining in the
laughter, truly, two hats are too
many for n fellow who has lost his
headw w-PdH Mall Gazette.

room, she threw herself upon the bed
in passion OF tears and self-reproach.
"If live," she said at last between
her sobs, ~ will try and mako myself
worthy of Rodney Lcaro, tho truest, the
best and the noblost man the world ever
saws" and with this resolve In her heart
she fell asleep.
Tho visit to Glen Haven marked the
beginning Of n now era in Jessie Croft
toms life. A few cautiously-worded
questions revealed more and more the
basencss of her correspondent; and so
doep was hor sonse Of shame and self
reproach that she was glad when her
visit came to an end and she was able
to bid her kind relatives goodbye and
return home.
She had not been at home three days
but that every one felt that change
had come over her. Instead of consid-
ering the younger children care and
trouble, she set herself to work to win
their confidence and affection, and TO
improve their minds. Her tired, over
worked aunt felt II sudden sense of rest
and support as quietly and unobtru-
sivoly she took upon herself, one after
another, various household duties. Ii
was long before the sting OF her bitter
experience had passed away; but Il life
filled with earnest helpful labor finds
little time for vain, rcgrctful looking
back to what might have been; and
when, after few busy, happy years,
she became the wife of Rodney Leare,
she learned to look upon the one dark
spot in her life as much-needcd les
son. from which she had learned con-
tentment and peace. st. Louis Maga-

Mr.. Beecher's Estate.

Henry Ward Beecher left compare
lively small fortune. He had an es-
tate in the Peekskill which cost him
about Sl50,000 He had insurance pol
icies which footed up something like
$40, 600 or S25, 900, and in hot haste his
heirs sold his pictures and books and all
personal belongings endeared to his
friends, at all events by many, many
years of close association with the dear
old man, and now how does it stand?
The $l50,000 place at Peekskill has
literally gone to seed. Those magnif-
cent aower-beds, on which the old man
eloquent spent years of thought, for
tunes of experience and thousands of
dollars earned by the sweat of his inn
perial brow. are choked with weeds
and overrun with grasses. Already
the market price of the place has fallen
to $S5, 600, and un6erstand-in fact,
have seen it stated is print-that an of
fer OF 500, 900, which was refused, will,
in all probability never be made again.
And on the heels of this, with what was
curiously called an autobiography,
written by one Of his sons and his SON.

own books upon the shelves of the
stores, come n rumor that his simple
will is also TO be contested. y

How to Lay a Carpet.

Carpets are often badly laid down,
either from ignorance or carelessness.
Tho carpet should be laid down as 1t is
folded the way the widths are TO run; it
must be unfolded by degrees, not
dragged open amy way. When the car
pet is s-opcned out, let the ceuter width
be laid out perfectly straight from one
end to the other, ard tacks put at each
end 10 keep It in place, and all the 9TH
or widths laid straight according to the
first. When one OF tho widths Is
straight and thoroughly stretched, lot

When the first end has been firmly
fastened down, let one side, ut right
angles 10 tho first nailed, bo tackled,
taking care TO keep IL ''taut," as the
sailors say. When the side and end ut

AT SCHOOL,.


We nre oil at school in this world Of ours,
And our lessons lie plain before us;
But We will not learn, and the flying hours
And tho days and the years pass DER u.s.
Aud thcn wo grumble and mourn md say
That our school is so tircsomo and weary,
And VIC ask for long bright holiday
That viii banish our lessons drcary.
But what Is Il God is trying TO toachi
Is II patience, or faith, or kindnessi
Is tho lesson really beyond our reach,
Or made hard through our willful blindness
1--we were In earnest, and tried to learn,
II our listless study we mendcd
Who knows but our holiday we would earn,
And our school days be gladly cndod
Who knows but VIC make our lessons long,
And hinder their meaning from reaching
The hearts that would be full OF Joyous song
five knew what our Col was tcachingf
Then let us study His will while we may;
Thcrc'o warning for us in the rule
That the scholar who will not learn all day
Is the one that is kept after school.
