Summer Dresses.

Transparent white fabrics over a
color is a happy combination.
An example is cream white m~ousseline
de sole over pale pink satin. Pure
white dresses are, however, much worn
by young girls. An esthetic design
for sheer white wool or crepe gowns
has graceful Grecian draperles and
long flowing sleeves. Some charm
ing girlish gowns of white organdy
muslin are being made. They
have the full French waist,
with deep Valenciennes lace gath
cred to fall from the shirred half
high round neck. The large. sleeves
have a lace frill below the elbow.
Three rufles edged with narrower
Valenciennes trim the foot of the
straight skirt, and a wide sash of or
CANDY gives the finishing touch to
these simple dresses. Other muslin
dresses of sheer nainsook are made
with a high belted waist buttoned in
the back.
Deeply crinkled japanese silk crepe,
the smooth crepe de Chine and China
silk are the white silks used for young
girls dresses. inexpensive dresses of
white China silk for young girls
have the high round bodice plated on
the right shoulder and shirred on the
left, crossing below and leaving a V
to be filled "a with mousselaine de
sole draped in curves Home dress
makers will find a simple model for
these white China silks in a slirred
round high bodice hooked in the back
over a fitted sateen lining. The full
ness at the waist is gathered on eight
or ten cords, and that at the top is
fatty shirred in round yoke shape,
with an inch wide standing fFill of
doubled silk about the low-tiIroated
neck. The skirt cannot be too plain,
but must be of becoming length and
fullness. and these differ according to
the height of the carer.
Young girls at evening parties
wear plain or figured mousseline
de sole dresses made with half
low corsage, with coat skirts and long
sleeves. the skirt is demi-rraine l.

DELICIOUS ~PINEApPLES.
How 10 Choose and Prepare Them
Havana sugarloafs.

The piles of luscious looking pine
apples displayed on the fruit stalls at
present may tempt many young house
keepers to try their skill with that
most delicious of all conserves, a pre-
serve of pineapples. These pineap-
piles, however, are the red OF straw
berry pine and are inferior to the
white varieties that come later. The
huge Porto Rico pineapples, viii CHI
are now shown on the stalls, are co arse
in texture and acid in flavor, like all
red pineappIes, and are in every way
inferior, but fairly suggesting h de
licious flavor of a sweet pine" The
sugar loaf, which is one of the sweet
est and best for preserving. has not yet
come. The season for this pineapple
is at its height about the Fourth OF
July, when these delicious pines
may often be purchased for n dollar
a dozen. The best sugarloaf pineap-
pies come frop Havana gardens
The most delicious way of preserv-
ing a pineapple is in its W juice,
without using one drop of water to
make the syrup. Peel carefully the
requisite number Of ~pineapples, weigh
them after they are peeled, and allow
three-quarters of a pound of sugar to
every pound of pineapple. Put the
pineapples in a huge yellow earthen
bowl or In a stone crock, aud scatter
the sugar thickly over them till it Is
all used. Cover them and let them
stand in the sugar for tw~enty-four
hours; a clear juice will nearly cover
them then. Now take each pineapple
and tear the pulp off the core, using
a silver fork, Drain off all the juice
from the pulp, aud also the juice and
sugar in the dish in which the pine
apples were put to soak in sugar: put
all this juice into a preserving kettle.
Let it come to the boiling point and
boil tor five minutes, then skimit and
strain it through a gravy strainer
over the pineapple pulp. Let the
pulp boil up in the syrup once, then
can it Immediately, as longer boiling
darkens the preserves. Ii you wish,
the syrup can be clarified.
The most delicious way of serving a
pineapple on the table is to peel it.
cover it thickly with sugar, and set it
away in a cool place in IS pretty a
glass fruit dish as you possess for at
least two hours. When you are ready
to serve it tear the fruit from the core
with a silver fork. Housekeepers
need to be reminded that preserved
pineapple is especially delicious served
with whipped cream.

A Western Romance.

In the centre of Senator Ingalls,
t~hirty-acre truck farm, south of Atchi-
son, Kan, surrounded by trees and
covered with blue grass, is a grave
which evidently received considerable
attention for many years. 1t is sup
posed to contain the remains of an
Indian girl and her pale-faced
lover.
Away back in the early part of this
century, when what's % known as
Kansas belonged to the Territory of
Louisiana, there lived in a lonely hut
on the bank of the Missouri River an
old Indian and his daughter, who had
wandered away from some Southern
tribe. One day a white hunter stopped
at the hut, having been lost in the
wilderness. He was taken sick the
day he reached the place, and was
nursed by the Indian girl for several
weeks until he recovered.
The girl fell desperately in love with
her patient. The man was already
married. and so explained to the girl.
She was crazed by her love, however.
and the night before the day set for
his departure she crept to his couch
and shot an arrow through his heart
and then killed herself. The father
found the pair dead, and they were
buried together.
The grave on Mr.. ingalls, truck
farm is supposed to contain all that is
lett of this couple. Mr.. ingalls, says
he will have the grave opened some-
time and ascertain, if possible, what
it really does contain. = Brtcktotcn

THE indictment of Chaunce y NJ. De
pew ard his fellow directors on ac-
count of the tunnel accident was a
piece OF cheap demagoguery on the
part Of an asinine Coroner, a hippo
droming District Attorney and a stu
pid and cranky Grand Jury. The
proceeding has cost the city of New
York several Thousand dollars. 1t has
done no good whatever and it simply
inflicted undeserved trouble and
humiliation upon gentlemen who
doubtless do their best to run their
roads safely for public as we'll as
private reasons.
