Gold beads continue to be worn
Tortoise shell hairpins, set with dia-
monds and turquoise, are fashionable

Large white felt hats are fashionable
for bridesmaids
The new kinds of ribbon are mostly
reversible, with satin backs and terry or
velvet borders of all kinds, as well as the
cord edge. There are some curious mix
lures of colors ike plaids in the stripes
and check braid borders and plush bord-
ers and entire plush ribbons.
Many of the new dresses have one
founce around the hem, which may be
taken as q premonition THAT the gowns
of next season will be hounced TO the
waist, after the style of our grand
mothers. Thus gently does fashion in
sert the wedge of an innovation in mode
which presently develops to exaggera-
tion.
Either starched linen collars and cuffs
are to be worn with wooden dresses this
winter, or crossway pieces of batiste or
something white, to obviate the hard
effect and economical appearance Of
the straight, unreieved band 50 long in
favor.
Satin is now being displayed as the
most fashionable fabric OF its kind.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.
To Make Beef savory-sharp
Knives Necessary for the
Kitchen.

Our great Spanish American dish is
"beef-Spanish." 1t is not only delightful
to eat but it is healthy and an excellent
appetizer, and can be used in preparing
cheaper cuts of meat, or with the finest
porterhouse steaks. l will give both
methods of preparation. For Spanish
stew, cut the meat in ordinary pieces and
cover with hot water as usual; peel and
slice into it number of tomatoes, a
couple chopped onions and chilli pepper.
THESE are the long. slender peppers, and
can be used when either green or red. II
desired hotter. more peppers can be used.
DuL L snould advise novice in making
Inc dish 10 start in with one; season with
SAIL ana pepper and simmer until the
meat Is done. If too thin, little thick
ening will be added.
For beefsteak Spanish, the steak Is to be
broiled or fried as usual, bat the to-
matoes. onions and pepper are stewed to-
gether for about half an hour. and. when
the STEAK is done, poured into the pan and
allowed to just boil up / q the gravy; pour
over the steak and serve. Onions sliced
and fried are also poured over beefsteak
in the same manner.
Sharp Knives for the Kitchen.

man, be he carpenter, joiner. mason or
decorator, can do perfect, acceptable
work without appropriate tools, neither
can u cook work as fast or as well with
Inconvenience as she can in q properly
appointed kitchen.
The one item of pairing knives is mat
ter OF gigantic Importance TO the cook,
with her many Irons in the fire." yet it is
an exceptional case where 81 Kitchen is
found containing these necessities that
are sufficiently sharp to pare with ease
turnlp, an apple or a potato. In the
average American kitchen they are as
dull as hoe. to use common express
sion.
II the happy possessor of one or two of
your grandnother's old tin case knives,
hold on to them with determined grip;
their price is above rubie5,n Much of
the cutlery of the present day is so poor
that it will not hold an edge. A good
file, polished down on grindstone with
enc eud fastened into a wooden handle,
the other sharpened off to point is said
to be far better than any mahufactarer's
knife the steel being of SO much better
quality. A small wnetstone should be its
constant companion.
Culinary Terms Explained.
To sauter anything is to lay it in shall
low pan previously buttered, and to cook
it sharply at brisk fire, turning it now
and again
A bouquet assorti is bunch consisting
of a spray or two of parsley, the same OF
thyme, Il bay lear or two. a small onion
stuck with a Glove or two, and blade of
mace. These are all tied together, ami
are lifted out when the meat, ETC., is
dished
70 mask anything is to cover it neatly
with any sauce.
HINTS for Domestic Use.
One tablespoonful Of liquid makes one
half ounce
Jelly bags should be made of flannel
and pudding bags of linen.
Washing floors and shelves with strong
pepper, tea or hot alum or borax water
will destroy ants and reaches.
Do not put soap in the water with
which you clean mirror; il is almost inn
possible to polish the glass If soap is
used
Add two tablespeonfuis of kerosene to
the pail of water with which you WASH
grained or other vanished furniture.
Hands may be kept smooth in cold
weather by avoiding the use of warm
water. Wash them with cold water and
soap.
Tar can easily be rem wed from cloth
ing by immediately RUBBING il Well with
clean larJ and then washing oat with
warm water aud soap.

THE WORLD or PLEASURE.
a Chapter Of Pleasant Sunday Gossip About Jersey
City Society, Fashions Of the Day, the
Theatres and Household Comfort

Professional women. The term does
not lave an altogether pleasant sound,
yet there are many women who delight
in being known as such. American
girls, somehow. have come to the deci-
sion that the only thing worth living for
is o career of fame, and when they do
not care TO strive for social distinction
generally adopt instead some of the pro-
LESSONS or arts, by which they hope to
climb the ladder of fame. Here
In this city we see less
Of this, perhaps. than In many
other cities Of the same size but still right
in the midst of the social circles we ind
a goodly number of women who have
marked ont for themselves ambitious
work We have four women doctors, or
whom probably the best known is MIS-
De Hart, who mad succeeded in building
up large practice. and is very popular
throughout The city both socially ana
professionally. Dir. Jennie Newell who
has cosy office on Summit avenue and
Dr. Mary Aldrich are rapidly achieving
great results Ia the work to which they
have chosen to devote their lives.
These ladies are both delightful con-
yersationalists and have mace scores Of

hearth for more stirring life. All day
long they are busy with the sick, and
many times all the night, too TIE
Youngest of the Quartette of women doc
tors which Jersey City may claim as her
own is DIR. Mary Mitchell, daughter OF
the Rev David Mitchell, of the Scotch
Presbyterian Church. Miss Mitchell re-
ceived her medical diploma less than
year ago, but she has made rapid pro-
gress since she commenced active work.
At present she is in one of the New York
hospitals, whore she will remain until
SHE has gained enough experience
to enable her TO start out successfully TOR
herself.
SUCCESSFUL yIOLTNISTS.
There Is as yet no Jersey City wom-
nm who cares to undertake the law
or ministry, and next TO medicine, the
arts are given the preference. There are
two professional violinists who have their
homes here and whose faces are frequent
~ seen at social gatherings. These are
Miss Emma Weaver and Miss Earl. Miss
Weaver was protege of Mrs. r. q.
Lyle, of Lafayette. and through that
lady's kind interest was enabled
to 20 to Munich, where she
completed her musical education She
plays exQuisitely aud if ambitious will
no doubt make name for herself. In
the way of crayon work the productions
Of the pencil of MISS Post, of Summit
avenue. have lifted her quite out OIL the
ranks OF amateurs. Miss Cora Packer
also aspires to fame in this direction and
has pursued her studies of this art for q
number of years. Her work is Of rare ex-
celience. The Que aspirant for stage fame
among cur society girls, Miss Maud
Chiffon, has given M her work in this
line owing to her approaching marriage.
In the literary field society here can claim
no one, but the singers are quite numer-

What is Scrofula

1t is that impurity in the blood, which, accumu-
fating in the glands OF the neck, produces UNI
slightly Jumps or sweilings; which causes painful
running sores on the arms, legs, or feet; which
deyelopes ulcers ia the eyes, ears, nose, often
causing blindness or deafness which is the origin
of pimples, eancerous growths, or many other
manifestations usually ascribed to humors."
1t is more formidable enemy than consumption
or cancer alone, for screfula combines the worst
possible features of both. Being the most ancient,
it is tho most general OF all diseases affections,
for very few persons are entirely free from 1t.
How can it be eurcd2 BY taking Hoods Sarsa-
pariila, which, by the cures it has accomplished,
often when other medicines have failed, has
proven itself to be potent and peculiar medicine
for this disease. For all affections OF the blood
Hoods sarsaparllais unequalied, and some of the
cures it has effected are really wonderful. If you
suffer from scrofuia in any Of It's various forms,
DO sure to give Hoods Sarsapariila o trial.

An American play by an American
author will be seen at the Academy of
Music this week. Money Mad" written
by the well-known playwright. Steele
Mackaye, is a story of life in Chicago and
the incidents and events are OF today.
The drama had run OF sevenl y-five
nights at the Standard Theatre, New
York, and abounds in startling situations
and sensational scenes. A swinging
drawbridge, opening and closing on the
busy river that runs through Chicago, is
very realistic and nightly arouses great
enthusiasm
There are no false pretences about
"MOney Mad 1t is claimed for il that
it is sensational melodrama in all that
the name implies and the play is remark
able for the adroitness with which a be-
wildering assortment of incidents have
been strung together with show of Sc
quence, tor the swift impetuosity with
which scene follows scene. aud for the
vigor, individuality and picturesqueness
of the characters.

astounding reports from Kansas and re-

DINA. Alabama, Georgia and the Gulf
States. Senators as distinguished as
ingalls, and Vance were threatened.
There were anxious faces i'm the House.
Experienced veterans heard the
whistling of the storm and knew that
they were in danger. They paired with
men Of opposite political faith in equal
peril and sped to their districts 10 look
after their political households. In some
cases they were too late to save them
selves. In others they are still Strug-

The rising of tho farmers might aptly
be compared TO the rising in the depart
mcntS of France at the time OF the
French revolution. Honest legislators,
who had never failed in devotion to the
agricultural interests of the country,
struggled for their political existence.
In Georgia there was a violent gale.
James H. Blount, of Macon, serving his
eighteenth consecutive year i'm the
House. was forced to raise his umbrella.
Judge j. ID. Stewart was overwhelmed.
Tom Grimes and Judge Barnes had only
a fighting chance. There were alarm
