BUSY DRESSMAKERS.
Ladies Who Have Been Unable to
Secure Their Summer Outfits.

MSEAEVER in my life did 1 know of the
FMs great advantage of being handy
EJ2f With the needle until this spring,
ana in educating my daughters L shall not
forget my experience" said lady who has
long been a resident of Pacific Heights.
1.-TWO OF my daughters graduated this
year; one from the Grammar ana the other
from the High School OF course it goes
without saying that they had to have brand
new graduating dresses. When everything
was in readiness for the needle, the most
necessary of all was missing-the dress
maker. Our regular dressmaker was head
over heels in work preparing other gradu-
ating costumes and summer outfits for the
country, and it was impossible for her to
accommodate us. A number OF others rec
commended rs first class could not oDllge me
for love or money.
Il almost worked myself into perfect
frenzy, for it was terrible to think of dis
appointing my daughters or resorting TO that
vulgar custom which Is so prevalent now
adays-I mean that of hiring garments
from costumers. In this predicament two
lady friends came to my rescue. Their edu
cation had included the use of the needle,
aud although they neglected their house
holds for three days 10 help me out of my
difficulty they accomplished the work and
| earned my unbOunded gratitude.
THAT is why say that,every woman, rich
or poor, should know how TO cut and fit
| Il garment and all the rudimentS of dress
making, just as much as any other branch
| of household affairs. What greater accom-
| plishment can woman wish than to be of
| service to herself when she really needs it.
Moreover, tirst-class dressmaker can
| always earn an independent living and is
always in demand. Why, even an ordinary
one can command from 81 to So day, with
| board, by sewing in families, and is gener-
ally sure of steady employment. Why, i
| know q number OF dressmakerS that sew
| for friends of mine, who are so busy that
| they have to be notified two weeks before
| when they are needed.
"Eyen in tue various establishments down
| town good dressmaker finds no difficulty
in obtaining position at good remunera-
| ton.
And so for my ignorance in making
clothes l shall have to be detained for two
whole weeks before my wardrobe and those
| of my dGGghterS are ready for us to make a
proper sppearance during our summer So
| journ at Monterey and San Rafael. 1t is
| an old saying that Misery likes company
| so there is no use of my complaining. for
| there are a number of ladies | know who
are sitting with their hands crossed, also
| patiently waiting for their summer attire TO
come from the dressmakers' SO that they
can pack their trunks"

The successful angler, on returning to
camp, should clean few trout in the
crystal waters of the stream he had but a
few moments before hurried them from. A
fire is built. The trout are buttered and
seasoned with salt and pepper, then
wrapped in paper or leaves and buried in
the hot ashes, where they steam in their
own fragrant vapor
AS the angler removes the wrappings and
the delicate aroma ascends his sensitive
nostrils culver, his palate rOuses into self
consciousness and in tone Of emotion he
murmurs, "Ye gods! N'yum-n'yum-
n'yum."
The next best mode of cooking small
trout is to clean them, rinse them quickly
in cold spring water, dry with towel and
rub a little salt on the inside along the
bone. Then cut into dice half pound of
the sweetest salt pork obtainable, fry it out
in the frying pan and into the pork fat,
actively boiling, piange the delicate fish.
Large brook trout, salmon and lake trout
are delicious steamed. Butter the trout
and season with salt and pepper; wrap the
fish in muslin, put them in the 0ld-fash-
Toned steamer, place it over pot Of boiling
water and the ascending steam will do the
rest.-Lewiston Journal.

The new member, however, has not yet
learned that the reports of all the House
committees for a hundred years back have
been collected and are to be found in book
form in certain commttee-rooms. But he
has also learned how to make connection
with the Senate. If, either by legislative
manipulation or by some kind dispensatOn
of providence, bill in which he is inter-
ested has come out of the House hopper, it

will have to steal away from the sessions

prominent men may serve him. Formerly in
