Who ever heard of girl with only
three gowns to her name2 Well, we

and most stylish young women of our

EARTHENwARE IN COOKING.

The favor of food baked or boiled in
earthenware is said by those who have
made the experiment to be far superior
to that of vegetable or animal food
cooked in the same way in iron vessels,
for the reason that iron is conductor of
heat, while earthenware is non-con-
ductor; consequently, food cooked in
the latter is rarely ever burned, the de-
gree of heat not varying perceptibly dur.
ing the process of cooking, thus preserv.
ing the flavor of what is cooked, as we'll
as uniformity throughout the substance
of the meat, vegetables or grain, until
the process of cooking is completed. So
earthenware takes the premium, as il
deserves to, and those who have found
out how much better they can do theii
cooking in these vessels than IN ironwart
give pots and kettles a cold shoulder

MAMMOTH woMAN's HOTEL.

One of the latest schemes of Chicago
women, who are not less wide-awake
than the men to the possibilities of their
big fair, is to build and run a mammoth
women's hotel on pro6t-sharing plan.
The use of the land has been contributed; !;
the material, the projectors hope, may
come out of the wigwam which is being
constructed for the National Democratic
Convention; and the expense of con-
struction is to be borne by subscription,
to start at $5 a share, from women all
over the country. Mrs. Matilda B.
Carse and Mrs. Potter Palmer are work
ing out the problem, and hope that
during the Exposition 5000 working
women may be entertained daily at the
hotel at a cost OF thirty cents q day for
each one. If there are any profits the
stockholders will divide them.-Boston

Hints About Selecting Wall Paper.

A wall paper should never be dull and
undecided, nor should it be startling. It
should harmonic with the pictures and
the hangings-in fact, with all the dec
orations of the room, and should, so to
speak, diffuse a general tone over the
whole room. One must consider the pic
lures and all that goes toward furnishing
the room in selecting the paper. Papers
with a loose, flowing design in light
gray, green, blue, or even yellow always
accord with prints and delicate water
colors, and. on the other hand, better
background is obtained for oil paintings
or pictures that are richly framed in gilt
by sober paper. Then comes the di.
vision of the wall. If the room is high
one, the wall looks better divided into
three parts, dado, the wall paper and
the frieze. The dado, or wainscot, which
is the older name, was at one time very
fashionable in panels, though it has at
present been entirely given up. This is
a pity, as those who have seen rooms in
old houses, treated in this manner can
affirm that VIC have not gained very much
by giving up this old style, and some
have tried to get back to it, if not in
actual woodwork, at least in devices that
produce a similar eGect.-New York

A GIRL HSoONER."

Miss Annetta Daisey, whose record as
the dashing leader of "sooners" has
reached the Atlantic coast IS Kentucky
girl. For twelve years she was teacher
at Port Oldham in that State. She sub
sequently went to Louisville, where she
taught in the public schools and until
she auarreled with the trustees. She
then went into politics and was twice de-
feated as candidate for State Librarian.
She next appeared in Washington, seek
ing a position, and with letters of rec.
ommendation from all the prominent
men worth knowing she secured the ap-
pointment as teacher for one of the
Indian schools. When Oklahoma was
thrown open Miss Daisey was in the front
rank. Her own description of her ex-
plot, in which she jumped from train,
and, kneeling on the ground, fired two
revolvers in the air, exclaiming: THUS
I salute the Kentucky Daisey's claim, "
is most thrilling. Such, indeed, are all
her adventures, and the kilograms she
sends announcing them to the news
papers make blood-curdling reading.
Instead of writing dime novels, as Miss
Daisey is perfectly competent to do, she
prefers to live them. She is as restless
and as daring as cowboy, warm-hearted,
true to her friends, and absolutely up
right in character. A Chicago cor
respondent, who enjoys her acquaint-
ance, describes her as bronzed by sun
and wind, but still a handsome woman.

A eRorRsouE WEDDING GOWN.


A widow worth $4,000, 600 and mar
ried in green!
It hardly seems as if sentiment ought
to govern the choice of the wedding gar
ment-that is to say, any sentiment ex-
cept good old fashioned devotion to
conyentionalities. Yet recently in New
York City, Mme. de Barrios, the mother
of nine little boys and girls and the
widow of d general who left her that i'm
mense fortune, elected green as the color
of her bridal gown, because forsooth she
wore that particular color on the occa-
sion of her first meeting a year ago with
the fortunate bridegroom, Senior de Roda.
1t was a very costly dress, of course,
made in Paris, the material being a
frosted silver brocade of pale eau de
lille tone (scarce color, the heavy train
of which was embroidered all round with
silver threads, among which was inter
woven knots of frosted silver ribbon held
in place by buckles of emeralds. The
sleeves reached the elbows and were
wholly of embroidery, and the corsage
was cut decollette and bordered with sill.

Sea Bean Jewels.

The Jewellers Review tells how the sea
bean first came to be used in the MANU-
facture of jewelry. About twenty years
ago Captain Haig, of small trading
schooner making trips between Jackson
vile, Fla, and the islands south and
southwest of Florida, noticed on one of
the Windward Islands several varieties of
the lbeans. Thinking they may be of
some value as curiosity, he purchased
from the natives for barrel of pork
large number of sacks filled with them.
Taking them to Jacksonville, he sold
them to Damon Greenleaf, the jeweler,
at the price of one cent apiece and went
of rejoicing at his bargain. On his
next trip to Jacksonville he found that
Mr.. Greenleaf had polished them, mounted
them in various ways and was selling
them at $3.50 apiece. They hit the
fancy of the Northern tourist and the
kjeweler is said to have made somewhere
lin the neighborhood of $4,000 by his
venture.

LADY COMMERCIAL TRAVELLERS.

Lady commercial travellers are not un.
known in this country and in Europe. A
young Swedish lady manages to indulge
her passion for travel ,and to earn good
livelihood at the same, by travelling for
a big firm of Scandinavian machinists.
Her salary allows her to travel in good
style, living at the best hotels. She has
just gone to London direct from Mos
cow, and expects shortly to start for
Melbourne, Australia, all in the way of
business. One firm of manufacturers in
London employs lady travellers; and
many others, especially manufacturers OF
dress goods in which woman's taste is
of value, would be willing to engage
women instead of men, provided the
women had business capacity, good
appearance, good manners and good
physique to endure the fatigue involved
in constant travel.-Yaukee Blade.

A REMARKABLE LETTER.
A Prominent Professional Mans Extrnor.
diBary Statement.
IN. !. S1tn.l

GN J. SUM-
To the Editor: SIR-Asmy name and face
have appeared In your paper and the public
prints lately, and as many OF my professional
brethren are wondering at it, / feel 1t only
just that should make an explanation. The
statement published over my name was
made ten years ago, after long and mature
investigation, and have never changed my
mind as to the facts then stated. At that time
I said, as physician, that believed Warmers
Safe Cure was the best of all known prepara-
tions for the troubles it was advocated to
cure, and say so still. / known it is con-
sidered the proper thing for the medical
profession to decry proprietary and other
advertised articles; but why should they do
SO? AS the late DR.. j. G.. Holland, writing
over his own name in Scrtbner's Monthly,
said:
.'It is a fact that many of the best pro-
prietary medicines of the day are more sue
cessful than many physicians and most OF
them were first discovered or used In actual
medical practice; when, however, any per-
son knowing their virtue and foreseelng
their popularity secures and adyertises
them, in the opinion of the bigoted all virtue
went out OF them"
DR.. Holland was an educated physician,
an unprejudiced observer, and he spoke
from broad and unusual experience. Pro-
prietary medicines should not be decried.
The evidences OF their value are overwheln-
ing. l have seen patients recover from
gravel Inflammation OF the bladder and
Bright's disease after using Warmers Safe
Cure. even when all other treatment had
failed.
make this frank and outspoken statement
in the interests Of humanity and because
know it to be true. I trust for the same
reason, you will give it to the public.
Respectfully,

A DRESS OF SPIDERS WEBS.

Mrs. White mentions as a great curl
osity the dress made from spiders webs
presented to the Queen by the Empress OF
Brazil in 1877. Most certainly it is, and
to nost British minds such thing might
seem Incredible; but if your correspond
ent were to visit Fiji-which is famous
for its magnificent spiders-he might per-
haps have less cause for wonder. The
web made by the big yellow spider here
is very large and strong; but in addition
to the web proper, in which flies, mos
quitoes, etc., are caught, it spins cocoon
Of orange colored, silky, gossamer-like
stuff, which, if taken up in the fingers,
requires quite an effort to break. This
stuff, I can conceive, might be woven
into material for dress. Might not the
dress in question have been composed Of
similar material made by the Brazilian
spiderss
can hardly, even now, believe that it
could have been composed of what we
understand to be the ordinary spiders
web. I can quite imagine, however,
that such material might be of some
commercial value, as one frequently hears
complaints at the present day of want
of fineness in fibres or materials used for
scientific purposes.
may add tina. our cockroaches are
hugh, too; but by merciful dispense
tion of Providence, our spiders are in
proportion. The particular enemy of
the cockroach here is not the big yellow
spider above mentioned, but long.
legged, formidable looking brown spider,
called the "hunting spider" cannot
find out that this species spins any web,
but apparently depends upon its great
activity for securing its prey. I know,
however, that it can bite pretty sharply,
as once saw one draw blood from the
finger of doctor friend of mine who
was capturing it for me. 1t is often to
be seen hugging large, fatteued, cir
cular, cream-colored bag, which, take
it, contains its eggs. We never kill
spiders in FIJI. The natives venerate
them as much as the Dutchman does his
stork, and perhaps with more reason.
Since writing the above / have been
told by friend of mine here that on
one occasion he had carefully examined
the long line stretched between two
points from which the web of the big
yellow spider mentioned above was sus-
pended, and found that it had beauti-
ful golden, silky appearance, and was so
strong that he was able to wind it round
a piece of cardboard. If this can be con-
sidered part of the web proper, then in
all probability light, silky material
could be woven from it, and the Brazilian
dress be not quite so extraordinary as at
first sight it might appear.-Notes and
Queries.

The Ten Plant.

The tea plant is indigenous to India.
When cultivated the plants are set out
in rows at sufficient distance from each
other to give room for growth. The
tea plant will grow on any elevation, but
reaches it greatest height on low ground.
When plants have attained their growth
they are cut back to height of twenty
inches and allowed to branch out anew.
The leaf is always plucked from the top
OF this new growth. The leaves are
picked indiscriminately, and spread out
thinly on canvas to wither. This makes
them soft and pliable. 1t takes twenty
four hours to prepare the leaves for roll
ing, which is done by machine whose
surfaces are OF wood. No metal ever
Genes in contact with the leaf. The tea
now looks green, and when ''6red* at
once is sold fer green tea. Black tea is
that which is allowed to lie in drawers
until it turns to light brown before it
is fired. The firing is done by
machine heated to 1sO degrees by means
of hot-air pipes leading from furnace.
Over this machine coolies pass the leaves
in trays. back and forth, until they be-
come crisp. After this the leaves are
separated into three grades, an each
grade is carefully freed from dust before
packing. Kate Fields Washington.

FASHION NOTES.

Flower clusters appear on satin stripes.
Evening shoes mus. match the CO.'S
tune.
Baby blue is in the very height of
fashion.
Combinations are made of gold and
English rose.
Black velvet and ivory satin are the
latest combination.
Dark red is to be worn with almost
every color and style of costume.
Gold shoe. buttons, set with jewels,
are the latest caprice of the very rich.
A pretty trimming for cotton gowns is
of white cambric, with dainty cord and
scalloped upon each edge in colors.
Most of the bodices for slender, youth
full women are sharply pointed, and are
still made to fasten under the arm or
else at the back.
Artificial flowers are so true to nature
this season, and so perfect, one cannot
help beng disappointed to find the
fragrance wanting.
Gray seems to be gaining in favor, if
that were possible. Silks, cam5rics,
cambreys, millinery wraps, draperies
and luncheons in gray, are the rule.
sunshades are blossomlng out in end
less variety, and such tempting styles, SO
opposite in effect and 30 novel and
dainty, render selection something Of
task.
The prettiest trimmings for French
ginghams, batistes, zephyrs and similar
fabrics are of openwork embroideries,
point de Gene or the light and delicate
Irish linen laces.
One stylish bonnet is almost in the
shape of a skull-cap. 1t is worn we'll
back on the head, is very fiat, and has
little trimming other than full bunch
OF plumes exactly at the back.
The pretty capes to be worn at the
seaside and in the mountains this summer
are as a rule made of French camels
hair, very light and soft to the touch,
but slightly rough IN appearance.
Bonnets made of jeweled gimp are
pretty and stylish. They are very plain,
that is have little if any trimming other
than the material of which they are made.
This, however, is so elegant that nothing
further is required.
Gray gloves bound and stitched with
black are new. As usual there are some
startling eccentricities in gloves; green,
medium blue and purple being among
the new importations. All the same, my
lady doesn't wear them.
Round hats, in very mannish styles,
are effected by young ladies for street
wear. They are particularly liked with
tailor-made costumes, and will undoubt-
edly be as popular as the Alpine, which
had such run some seasons ago.
One of the new French bonnets in
black is merely very large butterfly of
real lace. a pair of spreading lace wings
lying fiat upon the waves of hair. The
very slender body is Of black plush, and
the head and antenua are in sparkling
cut jet.

Tie Virtue of Hot Milk.

1t is worthy of reiteration that milk
heated to as high temperature as it can
be drunk or slipped, above 100 degrees,
but not to the Boiling point, is of great
value as a refreshing stimulant in cases
If over-exertion, bodily or mental. To
most people who like milk, it does not
taste so good hot, but that is small mat
ter compared with the benefit to be got
from it. Its action is exceedingly prompt
and grateful, and the effects much more
satisfactory and far more lasting than
those of any alcoholic drink whatever.
1t supplies real strength as we'll as e1-
hilaration, which alcohol never does.-

The Poet and the Sausages.

Poets really do not feed on air. In.
deed, though they may he hungry in a
distraught and absent-minded way, they
probably eat as much as other men.
More, perhaps, sometimes. Heinrich
Heine once destroyed the pleasure OF a
little supper by a mixture of appetite
ard Observation-Disclosures, of which he
afterwards became conscious with regret
and yet with spice of amusement.
Heine, when student at Gottingeu,
was invited with fellow student to take
supper with Professor Hugo and his hos
pitable wife. The fare was simple, and
not too plentiful, but one dish was
viewed with conscious pride by the
hostess, who evidently felt that nothing
could be better for the occasion. This
was small plate containing four fat
sausages. with tempting gravy and garn-
ishings of green. The choice dish was
passed first to Heine who was in the full
tide of a long aud animated discourse,
setting forth his opinions and some ques-
tion which had been started by the pro-
fessor. Instead of helping himself to
one sausage, and allowing the dish to
proceed on its way to the others, who
were eagerly expecting it, he seized the
plate, placed it before him, and proceeded
to dispose OF one sausage after another,
not neglecting the gravy, either, until
the garnishings alone remained to show
the havoc he had made.
Coming to the end of his speech at
sbout the same time that he had finished
the last sausage, he looked at the gloomy
faces about him, then at the empty dish,
discovered what had been the meaning OF
certain spasmodic attempts on the part OF
Professor Hugo and his distracted spouse
to interrupt his flow of language, and OF
course made profuse apologies. But he
was never invited to that house for supper
again-the chance of being left supperless
themselves was too great for his hosts to
risk it second time Yankee Blade.

GRADUATING DRESSES.

Graduates were allowed this year to
have more latitude in dress material than
in previous years. Instead of the dead
white, which has always been the proper
graduates dress, there may be worn
gowns of pale pink, pale blue or any of
the wonderful new shades which are so
beautiful and so becoming. Delicately
fowered silks, fine challies and sprigged
muslins were likewise in high favor for
graduating costumes.-New York Com
