IN both hemispheres, had raised up an

mission IN the abolishing OF aChattle

IN MEMoRIAM,

Mrs Catherine Andrus died at her home
near Rosa, St. Landry parish, La, July 25.
1892, in her eighty-first year.
She was born in st. Landry parish. and
never lived out of the parish. She joined
the Methodist church at about fifteen years
of age; for sixty years she tried to lead a
christian life. The writer had known her
for seventeen years, visited her often dur
ing her five months affiietion; during all
this time never heard her utter one word
of complaint. She was perfectly resigned
to the will of her Ssvior; she was timid,
vet brave: unostentatious, yet she shone
like lighted candle, a city ON hill to her
family; chaste in conversation, retiring in
disposition, dignitied in demeanor, simple
in dress, best of all, pure in heart In con-
firmatien of this, asked her a few days
before she passed away, did she feel the
Lord to be her shepherd; she seemed to
smile rs she looked at me in the face and
said: 80 yes Thus passed away moth
er loved By her chiidEen and grandchild-
rem, who showed their appreciation Of her
by their devotion to her during her pro-
tracted illness; for there was nothing left
undone that could have been done to re-
Iieye and stay the hand of death. This
mother taught her children how to live; at
last she taagat them how to die in peace.
May her loved oaes left behind, follow
the light left them, and theiT last days be
like their dear sainted mother's.

Tho Carrot Is the Most Delicate and Useful
That Comes to the Cook.

Tho Carrot Is the Most Delicate and Useful
That Comes TO the Cook.
Carrots are the misunderstood. Their life
in the kitchen is.a vegetable tragedy, so to
speak! They are the subtle life of soups
yet not one cook in ten knows that they are
anything but make shift, "if you are short
of vegetables" They are dainty little
vegetable in their prime, but who counts
them so? They not only help the looks,
but immeasureably help the flavor of GER
tain salads, yet they get no credit! There
are many ways of cooking them and you
will make no mistake trying them.
Carrots boiled and cut into dice or strips
are help to many salads, especially vege-
table salad. The great attraction Of vege-
table salad is that it can utilize all LETT over
vegetables, being the most tolerant OF
salads. A few peas, few cold boiled pota-
toes, beet OF two, some onion and carrots,
with mayonaise dressing make dish Of
delight. Beans, string beans or any other
kind, are good, but not indispensable. In
fact no one vegetable is indispensable, while
all are welcome in vegetable salad. That is
its great moral lesson. Cabbage, corn, arti-
chokes, celery, lettuce. nasturtiums-I can
not think of q vegetable that is too humble
or too naughty to associate with any other
vegetable in vegetable salad. Turnips go
very we'll, properly prepared, and you can
use squash if it have taken care of itself 1

The Easter lily has special place; and
all combinations of white and gold speak
of rejoicing and of the feast of feasts. The
simplest thing that takes the lily form or
wears the white and gold colors seems to
bear part in the glory of Easter.
As suggestion for gift to the pastor or
the church, there is described the work
upon the end Of a decorated stole, which
will surely prove welcome addition to the
church's outfit. The stole itself is to be
made of heavy white silk in which there
must be no touch Of cream, for purity is
symbolized by pures. white alone The
embroidery is not elaborate, but it has the
merit OF entailing no great strain upon the
eyes, and when we see ecclesiastic medal
lions of needlework that have cost a
woman's eyesight, the simplicity of this
stole will recommend itself
The scallops which edge the cross are to
be worked with the best of German gold
over heavy stufing; the line within the
scallops with pure white silk, which is also
to be stuffed; the circle and trefoils are
worked with white then trimmed with gold.
The rays behind the cross call for fine gold

decoration stops. Then on all four corners
should be drawn the simple daisy forms as
the illustration shows. Each should he en-
broidered with pure white Turkish floss in
solid Kensington stitch; each should be out
lined with Turkish gold, and with the same
flexible thread. The centers of all must be
perfectly darned. Then the edges Of the
square should be finished with trill of fin
est linen lace, and the whole should be
lined with linen, exactly like that which
makes the outer part. The square should
be folded, and at the central point should be
attached a bow of white and gold.
The case will be found appropriate in
color, ample in space and above all and be-
yond all it will launder as perfectly as the
bits of fine embroidery it is destined to
keep in place. The linen improves under
the influence of the tub. The gold and the
silk come forth unharmed and only the rib
bon now requires to be replaced, in order to
get fresh and unsullied case each time
that dust and soil shall do their work.

Contrast Of the Fair Creature OF Years Ago
and tho Aged Woman Of To-Day.
Ladies' Home Journal;
Upon her first visit to Paris Eugenie' s
beauty was ravishing. She was ikened to
snowflake on July day; like the fairy
like mist that hangs over Niagara; like all
that is purest freshest, loveliest in nature
was the impression that she produced upon
people. Once at great ball she was clad
entirely in white, of the feeciest, gauziest,
mistiest description, and with very SIM
pie parrure of emeralds and diamonds glis-
tening in her blonde hair. looping up her
transparens sleeves, and shining on her
lovely neck. she was as completely vision
of delight as eve ever rested on.
The remainder of the story is known, and
her marriage, her reckless extravaganza, the
war; her downfall and escape. are tales of
history told again and again. She encour-
aged frivolity and spent money more reck-
lessly, perhaps, than any other woman ever
did She was conceded to be the best
dressed woman in the world. Her ward
robe cost 81, ,0OO, 900, and her Jewels were of
fabulous value. She spent SIC, 1000 day
for household expenses 1t was the age Of
gold. She undoubtedly was the cause of
her own downfall, but she did many kindly
deeds. She was one of the first to recognize
the merits of Rosa Bonheur, and it was BY
her wish that the talented artist was deco
rated.

GOWNS THAT WILL WASH.

The Cotton Goods Of These Days Have Fast
Colors-Pretty Designs for Making Them
. Up-Points ON Trimmings- Suggestions
for the Coming Season.
WRITTEN FOR THE DISPATCH,
One satisfaction nowadays in making up
cotton frocks is the almost absolute GER
taintv that the colors will not fade if rea-
sonable care is taken in the Washing. Fast
colors are now as much standard feature
with manufacturers as artistic designs and
fine textures.
Wash nice cottons in moderately warm
water made into lather with mild. pure
soap, rinse quickly in water of the same
temperature. and dry in shady spot. Re-
member, that starched clothes are no longer
considered refined Iron invariably on the
wrong side, with very warm iron, but not
heated sufficiently to leave the hint Of a
browning, Any trimming of Irish point
lace or embroidery should be ironed on the
wrong side, over a thick pad to bring out
the pattern.
Buy enough goods for extra sleeves. Cut
q round waist amply long, as it tucks under
the skirt belt. Allow deep hem; for cot
ton will shrink, no matter what the mer.
chant or manufacturer may tell you.
Elaborate Gowns Of Cotton.
~Cottons are now so beautiful that they
may be made into elaborate gowns, if you
like, with trimming of embroidery or
point lace and ribbon. Velvet is often ap-
