Successful Cake Making.

The successful baking of cake, etc. de-
ponds so greatly upon the oven that it Is
we'll to test the heat unless one is so expe-
riepced as to tell almost by instinct when
the temperature is just right. The follows
ing rules are given by a French cook: ''Try
the oven every ten minutes with piece Of
white paper. If too hot the paper viii
blaze up or blacken. When the paper be
comes dark brown the oven is fit for small
pastry, pies, etc. When light brow9Athat

cakes; while if just tinged the oven is right
for sponge cake, neringues, ETC." In mix
ing cakes always add the whites of eggs
just at the last before baking. Do not beat
them into the mixture, but stir them in
lightly and as quickly as you can, especially
for sponge cake. Buns are said to be mich
lighter and shorter when the dough IS set
overnight and the eggs and fla 6ripg
mixed in next day.

It requires five yards of No. 16 ribbon to
make crown band on sailor and two
fluffy rosettes on the left, the second one
holding brush or aigrette.
As the summer goes on hats and wells
grow bigger and more important. The lat
ter are no longer an adjunct 10 bonnet or

A recherche parasol for this season is of
white silk, hand embroidered with white
violets, and has few of the artificial flow
ers fastened here and there on the silk and
in the folds of Mechlin lace with which the
parasol is bordered.
1t is predicted that flowers will be worn
late into the winter, and that piece velvet
will be greatly worn as entire hats and
bonnets, trimmings and ties and certainly
nothing can be more universally becoming
or richer in appearance.
The entirely plain skirt, which wideus
below into a bell-like shape, has grown
quite popular. 1t should not become COM
mon. as it is fitted only TO nice figures, and
fashion provides a sufficient variety this
season to satisfy all tastes.
''Valois" sleeves are the newest covering
for madam's white arms. These are the
ordinary very full high sleeves, clasped in
the middle of the arm by an antique silver
or gold brooch or large button and again
held by like ornament just below the ell

Gantlet gloves are in order for country
wear. They are made in ordinary kid and
suede, andsare moderate in size. Some of
those in suede have the gantlets covered
with rows of narrow braid, but the major
ity in kid are untrimmed. Gray gloves are
very fashionable in England, particularly
in suede kid, and often have wide, black
CO Wings on the back.

Arranging Lace EIounces.

A pretty and uncommon way Of arrang-
ing lace founces, now being affected oy
some of the leading dressmakers, is TO use
one founce, If it is about four yards long, By
festooning it twice across the front OF the
skirt, first half way down and secondly
near the edge of the skirt. turning over the
top of the lace in two or three inch hem,
running ribbon in it. and gathering it up
on the basque at the back of the bodice or
slightly to one side. Each hounce tor
rather the half of the one fiounce, for it is
not cut, but turned back has its separate
drawstring. so that four ends are caught
up together at the back. The lace is
draped in one festoon. 1t is possible to
arrange three festoons across the front.
and is sometimes done. If there are short
lengths, or an old fashioned berthe, it is
carried around the top of the low bodice,
and forms short, full sleeves,

CHAT on FASHION.

Fads have their time to fade and to be
scattered b.; fashions breath, SO if there is
a mode That violates good taste or shocks

bring things around right. 1t has not been
-rry long since ii seemed as if there would
hc complete revolution in women's under
-vaar. not oaly in the G:ishiou;ne, but in the
material and color. Lovers of the pure
white dainty urder.arments were sur
prisrI # mot shocked TO read that soft
lilsu. delicate null and white laces were to
give place 10 black and the colors in silk

divided skirts would displace the petticoat
aud cacmise, and thus would pass away the
pretty fusion Of flow ing drapery aud pure
white garments. Not so; the fad has passed
away. slack never became popular, and
the divided skirt ana union garment are by
no means in common use. And now

chemise is, Of course, low necked, and the

which vii spoil the lines of the bodice put
over For this same reason the sleeve
should be a mere strap. The garment
should be cut low, but never to below the
edge of the corset. and the lace about the
neck, or the upper edge of the chemise,
should either be pulled close or be drawn
close by a ribbon. This gives roundness

IN BRIEF,

Balzac, in speaking of women, says: "To
feel, 10 love, 10 suffer, to devote herself,
will always be the text of the life Of wom-
en-" Observation only tends to confirm the
opinion thus prettily expressed. Foremost
IN good works. foremost in self-sacritice are
women. Suffering rarely appeals to them
in vain. and their ear is open to the cry of
distress. This was eXemplitcd last week
when, through THE GAZETTE columns, no.
tice was given of family in need. While
nobie-hearted men contributed to the re
lief Of these needy ones, kind women Wis
tied the house, not only bringing necessa-
ries but giving such gentle ministration
as only women c-ln render. The hearts of
some of the kind visitors We're SO touched
by the scenes that the thought occurred,
why not establish in this city benevolent
order for the systematic distribution of
charity, and for organic work in the allevi-
alton Of suffering among the poor? 1t has
been suggested that Il call be made upon
the young ladies of this town TO establish
here a branch of the Kings Daughters, -
a philanthropic organization that is now
widely known and embraces all classes,
from noblewomen to shop girls. This Or
der. the motto Of which might be, ''Do the
Duty nearest You" has made surprising
strides.
In l-66 le first circle was organized in
the city of New York by ten women, and
now it is said that $50 900 women wear the
little silver cross and purple ribbon. OF

London to establish Il branch in that city,
and il is the intention TO start branches in
The provinces The order is non-sectarian,
and the members are supposed to be ami
mated 10y Il desire TO emulate the example
Of him who went about doing good. The
spirit of philanthropy abounds in this town.
Time ana again appeals to the charitable
have been made, and never in vain. The
measure of good deeds has been filed,
pressed down and made to run over. Now
what is needed is to have these willing
hands and hearts embodied so that the
work may be done with system and thor
oughuess.
The stringency Of the times has thrown
many out of work, which with u siowEess
10 pay of Indebtedness will cause much SUI
fering and that too among a class reluctant
to parade their necessities. Among these
the work of the Kings Daughters serves an
admirable purpose: TO search out the ne
cessi,ies ami quietly minister TO them is
the pcruiar mission of this order VIII
not The young ladies of Fort Worth take the
matter in hand, Let i few of them resolve
and the est will be easy. The columns of the
Ladies Department are open to them and
any call for meetings OF suggestions look
ine to the attainment of this object will be
checrfully published. The winter season is
coming ana entertainments can easily take
the form OF doing for sweet charitys sake.
Thus pleasure and kindness can walk hand
il hand, The appeal is made to all the
ladies of the city: who viii be first to take
the iniSiatory step towards organizing Fort

4 Homemade Rug Which Has the Charm
of the Oriental Productions.
Many of the homemade rugs are prefer

that make the oriental rugs SO popular

ity. The fault of most of the homemade
rugs is that they are not woven tight
enough, and as a result the fuzzy part has
to be left long. If this could be cut off as
short and even as the Turkish rugs hand
some productions would be made at small
expense, says The Decorator and Furnisher,
which gives the following directions for
doing this:
After the fashion of the eastern rug and
carpet makers. make stout framework of
wood about foot larger than the rugs are
to be. Then string coarse fish line from
one end to the other, pulling them just as
tight as the strings will stand without
swapping. They should be placed as close
together as possible. Separate every other
one and run stick between the rows.
Then tie in double knot each piece of col
ored cord or rag of fancy material, cut in
strips of about two inches or less, to the
upper row of fish line. Put each piece
close together. Then remove the stick
and bring on top the other row of fish
lines. Repeat this operation until the rug
is finished. Then tie tho ends of the fish
lines together and conceal them from view
in the back. The rug should then be
sewed to some old piece of carpet cut the
desired length. Cut the ends Of the brus-
sells off evenly all over and just az short as
possible. This will give the rug firm,
compact look
