The Utility of Turpentine.
Written for THE TIMES. |

The soil in the Carolina is indigenous
to pines, and that is one source from
which we obtain great quantity of
spirits of lurpentine. The domestic and
medicinal qualities of turpentine are
hardly to be reckoned. 1t is of inestim-
able value to the artist in dissolving
gums and pigments. In Group, in the
absence of a physician, one of the earliest
treatments known was to bind flannel
wet with turpentine aboutth throat and
on the chest, and to administer two or
three drops internally on lump of
sugar. For sore throat, apply scalded
flannel sprayed with turpentine. For
burns it is one of the most soothing rem
edies that can be applied. Again, mixed
with three times as much camphorated
oil, our grandmothers thought there was
nothing better for chilblains; they had
no doubt in its immediate efficacy in the
cure of felon, if mixed with dried and
powdered salt and bound on the finger
with bandage. In the household econ
omies turpentine plays an important
part, and the thrifty housewife always
has her supply on hand to remove spots
of paint, to clean gloves and to extract
ink from cotton, wooden or silk goods.

Fla shiOn Notes.

Two or more s'independent'' coats or
blouses, more or lesssdressy to suit diff
ferent occasions, are provided in even
quite modest outfits, to wear with var
ious skirts, and the costume can thus be
changed indefinitely.
D a pretty autumn hat is the Vatican
hat of black erin (horse hair). with a
brim Of III 2dium width turned up at the
back. The low crown is encircled by a
tulle ruche traversed by a ribbon. A tuft
of flowers or feathers ornaments the
back.
Wraps preparing for the first cool
days are short capes of Pyrenean cloth
trimmed with braid, and others of pretty
snowflake tricOt, attached to a yoke,
with a rouche at the throat and on the
shoulders. These small wraps extend
only about hands depth below the
waist, are light, yet sufficiently warm,
and easily dotted and donned.
Aprons are now to be seen iri many diff
ferent materials, including white lawns,
plain and embroidered checks, pompa-
dour prints, embroidered zephyrs or
sateen. A very dressy apron for after
noon wear has a gathered bib and a
Swiss belt, below which is loosely tied
girdle of silk passementerie to match the
principal color in the print-sateen or
zephyr, which is employed.
Some country dresses for early autumn
are being made, according to Harper's
Bazaar, with underskirts of blue or red
cloth-red under ecru or beige and blue
under white. Over the corsage is worn
a sleeveless jacket of the color of the I'M
derskirt, with slashed coat skirt, and
having Y of the lighter fabric in the
front and back. A belt OF natural leath-
er studded with gilt nail heads confines
the jacket at the waist.
One all-black dress, preferably of
lightweight silk, lace-trimmed, or of
lace or net made over silk, is necessity
in every wardrobe; and with a skirt of
this, and coat of black foulard with
printed sprays of wild roses or pink
rosebuds, trimmed with frills of pink
chiffon, another of pale yellow China
silk trimmed with white Mechlin lace
jabot and sleeve frills, another of red
surah, in blouse style, trimmed with
black lace, and one of striped black and
white, the toilet may be made to assume
the ''infinite Variety that is so desira-

Boarding VS.. Housekeeping.

The question of boarding versus
housekeeping has so far been discussed
almost entirely from the standpoint of
city life. But in the country we have
more people than in the cities. The
average country girl would consider it
fearful extravaganza to go to boarding.
1t is quite possible in the country for a
young couple to keep house and live
well on what it cost the husband for his
board alone, say S13 month. To pay
the double of that for board would alb
sorb the entire income, and, of course. is
not to be thought of. But aside from the
question of expense. most country girls
prefer housekeeping, as it gives them a
feeling of independence. They are doing
something for living as well as their
husbands. 1t would be just as well if
city girls had more of this spirit. The
divine ideal of wife is a helpmeet for
a man, the boarding house idea is simply
help-eat. What does she do with her
life, anyway? She begins, perhaps, by
Bellows Falls times. [volume] (Bellows Falls, Vt.) 1856-1965, 1891-10-01

Wash white silk handkerchiefs in cool,
hard soapsuds, rinse in blued water, dry
quickly and iron with a cool flatiron.
When washing fine fiannels add a ia
blespoonful of pulverized borax to pail
full of water. This will keep them soft
and white.
To Danish red ants from the pantries,
strew whole cloves around the shelves.
The same is considered good moth ex-
terminator.
The fashion of using canton flannel
cloth under the linen tablecloth is very
desirable one. 1t prevents noise when
dishes are set down; saves much wear on
fine linen cloths, making them last
longer, and gives body to an old or thin
cloth.
Most peoplein cleaning lamp chimneys
use bristle brush with wire handle or
a cloth wrapped over stick, both of
which are liable to scratch the glass,
making it break more readily when ex-
banded by the heat. A sponge the size
of the lamp chimney tied to the end Of a
slender pine stick is better than either.
