Beware of Summer Colds.

Beware of summer colds" warns a
physician; ''city people are likely to be
careless how their feet are shod for
country walking, the damp earth one
finds in village walks necessitates for the
feet more protection than do stone pave
ments, and thin shoes and slippers are not
suitable footgear. A summer cold is pc
culiarly obstinate because of the oppor-
tunities for rapid changes Of tempera-
ture. Mornings and evenings cool, with
hot days, need attention to clothing. |
think nothing so safe as fine wool I'M
derwear all the year around, and make
all my patients wear it who will Cot
ton is too good a conductor of heat
The moment the surrounding air be-
comes cooler than the skin, as it often
will when the dew falls or after a sud
den rainstorrn, it steals heat from the
body which is needed. A fresh supply
must be had, and this taxation of the
system in a delicate person, or even in a
strong one, sometimes brings about a
local congestion or cold all of which
might have been prevented with wooden
underclothing, however light and fine. "

Mosher's Vacation.

Have you ever thought, girls, as you
enjoy the summer vacation, what q
scrimped bit of it, or none at all, falls to
mothers share?
She loves to see you looking dainty
and sweet as all little women should,
but the very wash dresses that give the
desired effect mean to her an added
burden of housekeeping cares that she
does not have in winter. Such dresses
must be properly Numbered, if not by
her own hands, at least under her per-
sonal direction.
Then there is ''the table" OF course
there ought to be fruits and vegetables
in abundance, rather than heavy meat
diet. 1t takes q large slice of mothers
time each day to see that these are
properly prepared, not to speak of the
canning and preserving that summer
imposes on prudent housewives.
Even if you all "go away" mother is
not quite care free. Father drops his
business, and you young folks set your
hearts on nothing save a good time.
But the "wash list is still on mothers
mind; the intending" must be done,
though it is vacation!-M. d. Sterling

Hints for Hot Months,


Special care of the sewage must be
taken during warm weather, and some
disinfectant should be poured down
the cesspools and sinks as often as once
a week. For outdoor drains nothing
is better than copperas. Five cents
worth dissolved in boiling water is a
powerful purifier and deodorizer.
Potash or common washing soda
dissolved in boiling water is one OF the
best articles to use in the kitchen sink.
1t is wise also to keep little chloride
of lime standing about in places OF
doubtful atmospheric purity, but it
should be kept in some high place out
of the reach of children.
Meat that has become slightly tainted
may be restored by cutting away the
dark parts and washing the surface with
a teaspoonful Of borax dissolved in half
o cup of water.
A large piece of charcoal laid in the
refrigerator will help to keep the atmos-
phere sweet. 1t needs to be renewed
once week.
When poultry and meat are brought
into the house and are not to be eaten
the same day, put large piece of char
coal inside the poultry, removing 1t
when the poultry is cooked, and rub
vinegar over the meat, washing it OFT
when ready to be cooked.-New York

Patient Walters.

The Italian singers, Sofia and Giulia
Ravogli, who became quite suddenly the
delight of London musical circles, are
very modest and patient women. They
can bear to defer enjoyment even Of
the praise which is theirs by right.
Mile. Giulia was one day talking
with a friend, who happened to make
some remark about the enthusiastic no.
tees the two singers had received from
all the London papers.
Yes, every one tell me So" replied
she in her pretty, broken English, sand
we get such lot of funny little rolls of
de brown paper sent to us many time in
de day, and we puts dem all in dis big
drawer, to save up when we go home"
Here she pulled out the drawer and
displayed a quantity of newspapers, not
one of which had been opened.
"But don't you look at them?' asked
the visitor.
ooh, no, not yet we look; but see
here! dis is book which shall contain
dem some day"
Thereupon she displayed with great
pride perfectly new and empty scrap
book, which she confessed had at
tracted her by its red and blue index
letters. In that ''some day" would see
her fame enrolled, but she was content
to wait for leisure to accomplish the
pleasing task.-Youth's Companion.

Though it is perhaps a little soon to

have Lot yet gone away, and as also the
weather wooes Us from rather than to-

behind. 1t is perfect delight to note
the chairs just where they used to stand;
the little knickknacks in our own room
telling their tale of gifts with pleasant
associations, and becoming acquainted
all over again with the workings of the
home. In all the days that have gone so
swiftly by have we ever met any among
the many new acquaintance that could
compare with the home folks? Were there
ever such dear, gracious, lovable people
In the world as father and mother? No

little pats of affection keeping up even

A Woman's Project.

The idea of the ssNew England kitch-
en-" in Boston originated with Mrs. Ell
len H. Richards, a graduate of Vassar
college, and the only woman instructor
in the great Institute of Technology,
and she was ably assisted in organizing
the work by Mrs. Mary Human Abel,
whose essay on sanitary and economic
cooking won the prize offered by the
American Public Health association.
Financial support was given by Mrs.
Quincy A. Shaw, who thus added one
more to her many practical philanthropic
works.
On Jan. "a, 1890, the kitchen was
opened for the sale of food, sufficient
time having been previously spent in
collecting facts and making scientific
experiments, to make the public test of
them desirable. The kitchen is now es-
tablished on business basis, and in its
regular work is self sustaining. The
aim to prove sort of object lesson IN
cleanliness has been successful, but has
cost more effort and money than were
estimated at the outset. One of the
chief difficulties has been in securing
trained helpers or even those willing to
learn.-Gertrude Talbot in Onward and
Upward.
A Prima Donna's Advice for Hot Weather
Lily Post, the prima donna, IS
woman of taste and of practical habit
of thought. She is credited with this
advice to the summer woman: 81 don't
quite like to pose as a doctor, nor to
offer advice rsasought, but perhaps few
words may cot come amiss. Of course
I presume you are woman-no man
would take the pains to read what a
woman has to say upon these momen-
tous subjects-so l will say the first Of
all things you must do, if you wish to
keep cool, is to disregard bangs. Yes,
bangs are heating, inasmuch as they
are a source of constant anxiety when
nature has not made them of curly in
clination, and the worry caused by the
thought that they are as straight as
broomsticks is enough to make some
women get into perfect fever.

Avoiding the Taste of Codliyer Oil.


A fascinating belle on the heights is
said to have found new use for cod
liver oil. This young woman is charm
ing, but she is too thin to risk another
season of evening gowns until she has
reformed. Her physician imperatively
ordered codliver oil. Now the young
woman hates cod liver oil with fervent
hatred, ard after she had taken half a
bottle, in freak of anger she began to
apply the rest externally. Strange to
relate, her skin grew smoother and
fairer. She kept on, and the desired
plumpness began. to appear on her
shoulders.
The young woman is on the Massa-
chusetts coast, ostensibly for the sea
bathing, but her druggist has sent her
case of codliver oil in plain package
by express, and if she comes home with
a complexion of roses and cream he will
not believe it was wholly the effect of
sea bathing. Brooklyn Eagle.

Seed Decorations,

The use of seeds for purposes of sim
pie ornamentation is very old, and has
of late been revived with good effect for
embroidering fancy articles. The best
seeds are those of the melon, vegetable
marrow and cucumber, assorted accord
ing to size, shape and color. After the
design has been traced on the material,
which may be velvet, plush, cloth or
silk, the stalks are put in with gold or
maize colored silk in stem, chain or her
ringbone stitch, and the leaves outlined
in similar manner. Then the seeds
are placed in position and fixed by a
stitch at either end, care being taken to
make them lie fiat.
Among the flowers which can be imi-
tated in seed work are marguerites,
asters, starwort, jasmine, etc. Ears
of corn or barley are very effective,
though more difficult to work, owing to
the seeds having to be packed close to-
gether. On foundation Of maroon
velvet or crimson cloth the seeds stand
out like ivory in bold relief.
The calyx Of the buds is done in crewel
work or silk. This work can be adapted
to fancy articles of various kinds, such
as table borders and centers, banner
screens, tea cozies, etc.-Decorator and
Furnisher.
