DURING THE WEEK.
Good Crops are Provisions
Remain Steady-The Orange and
strawberry Season Nearly
over-Butter Steady.

The fine weather throughout the North
west has been all that could BIO desired,
and good crops are assured; the demand
for salmon and wool, however, is not very
satisfactory 10 the producer, but hopes
are entertained that higher prices will
rule later on. A slight advance in sugars
is noticeable, while coHees are without
change. Provisions remain steady as
usual with the single exception Of a drop
of NC in Armour's. Strawberries are
rather scarce and the season for oranges
are nearly over The choicest stocks Of
dried fruits have been about cleaned up,
and the demand for other grades is les
sened by the abundant supply Of fresh
fruits. The local wheat market still re-
mains stagnant, and 1t is rumored that in
some districts the heat has been too in
tense for the cereals.

to stiff froth, add them carefully to the yelks
and sugar. Add level teaspoonful of baking
powder to one cup of lightly sifted flour This
must be sifted before measuring; add il slowly
to the batter mixing very carefully, add two
tablespOOnfuls OF warm water. Line a long
baking-pan with creased paper; pour in the
mixture to the depth OF a quarter inch. Bake
about eight or ten minutes in a moderate
oven. 1t must be thoroughly cooked, but
lightly baked. As soon as it is done turn it
the cake. and spread it with jelly. With
knife quickly crush the crust around the edge
and roll up the cake.-IdbIe Tax.
Curried Oysters-Thinly slice two onions,
put them into a saucepan with a bit of butter;
when well Drowned add tablespoonful of curry
powder and a cup of oyster liquor; stir to-
gether and boil for three minutes; add table
spoonful of butter and -four mixed, half cup
of cream and one well-beaten egg; have fifty
oysters brought to the scalding point in their
own liquor; take them out even before they
begin to curl; skim the liquor, turn into il the
curry preparation, heat for one minute; turn
IN the oysters and serve Immediately.
Scotch Short Bread-Warnes receipt reads
thus: One pound of butter, two pounds of
flour, and half pound of sifted sugar, and
from the proportions you used presume you
separated the recipe into quarters, but made
two cups of flour, half cup of butter, and a
hall cup OF sugar. This, you see, is half the
quantity of sugar and only quarter of the but
ter and flour. Try again and the same
quantity Of -four and butter and quarter OF a
cup of sugar. Put the butter into bowl and
beat 1t until creamy. then work into it,
Warne says, squeeze" into it the given guam
THY Of flour, and then the sugar (granulated)
and dozen almonds blanched and chopped
very fine. Mix all well together. take portions
OF 1t and shape with the hands into cakes half
inch thick. Bake in a slow Oven.-TdJJs Talk
To Preserve Butter-There are two very
good ways of keeping butter for winter use.
| will give you both, and after trial you can de-
eide for yourself which you prefer. In both
cases the butter, without additional salt, must
be packed smoothly and tightly into stone jars,
using an ordinary wooden potato-masher for
pressing il down. For one jar cut piece of
new muslin sufficiently large to entirely cover
the butter. Make solution of salt and water,
dip the muslin il this brine, cover it over the
butter, and sprinkle top of it salt to the
thickness of one inch. Cover the top of the
jar with two thicknesses of tissue paper neatly
pasted down, and keep over this a tin
wooden cover. For the second jar stir enough
salt into two quarts of water to make a sat
urated solution-that is, until the water has
dissolved all the salt that it can possibly take
up; add quarter teaspOonful of saltpeter and
a quarter-pound OF granulated sugar; strain this
over the butter, and cover the jar the same as
directed above.-Idbie Talk.

FAHSION NOTES.

Bonnets of cloth to match the dress are richly
embroidered.
Among tho many novelties are bonnets
trimmed with bands and rolls of velvet in old
rose, apricot, olive or orange yellow, overlaid
with diamond-cut jets or black silk passemen-
terie in gothic points.
For light wooden gowns for teas and small
dinners French camePs hair and chuddah is
much used in beautiful pale tint of Russian
green, in soft old rose, mahogany, gray, rasp-
berry, golden olive, and heliotrope. These
gowns are mostly in empire style.
Long ostrich plumes tips, and aigrettes are
very much used on hats; also stiff birds wings
coming from the back OF the crown. Many of
the French felt hats have the edges left raw so
that they can be bent into any shape desired by
the wearer. The crowns are unbecomingly
low, but considerable hight is given by the
trimming
Hats and bonnets are now made in every
conceivable shape, and whatever best suits the
face and features can be worn with the agreea-
BILE knowledge that it is as strictly fashionable
as another woman's, though the one model be
a simple toque, fitting the head closely and al
most de void of trimming the other has an i'm
mense brim, and be laden with plumes and or
naments.
The cosmopolitan character of new winter
head-gear is quite wonderful. Never before
has greater diversity appeared, and all women
should be duly grateful for the almost limitless
opportunity Tor chOlce. Formerly one or Two
particular models alone prevailed and the
owners of faces either round, square, long
short, slender. or rotund had each and all per-
force to accommodate these few shapes to their
requirements.
Although sealskin is chiefly employed for
long enveloping wraps by people who can af
ford liberal outlay Of money, il is questona-
BILE in point of real grace, unless very lightly
lined, made TO order, and So perfectly fitted. A
strong rival and "a stylish one to these expen-
sive garments is the Russian long coat made OF
fine Austrian broadcloth. This fabric is so
warm and thick that lining whatever is nee
essary. II can, therefore, be adjusted TO the
figure with great perfection.
There is again a rage for fancy jewelry, and
gold pins, crescents, stars. trdents. sabers ban
giles, necklets, and brooches, shaped in unique
and graceful ways and set with gems, are highly
popular. Breloques are once more suspended
from the waist, and attached thereto are anum-
Der of pretty trinkets and small objects rival
ling each other in worth and beauty; a tiny
gold watch. with pearl or diamond heart on
the case, a flexible gold purse whose openwork
pattern resembles fish scales, a charity box
with ieweled initials in relief, tiny gold key
exquisitely chased, and so on.
