Vegetables can be served up in Salads and
are more appetizing for warm days than when
hot. The dressings for salad are many but
every housskeeper varies them little to suit
the wishes of her particular family, who may
like more or less mustard, little or no pepper or
oil. The dressings given can be used as foun-
dations; and, besides these, there is the regular
Mayonnaise. for which recipe was given in
the Better Half" columns some time ago.

Potato salad is made of potatoes boiled and
sliced up thinly, with perhaps few onions,

of mustard, and the same of black pepper, and

cream and two-thirds of cup of vinegar.

The gown in the cut has jacket, deep cuffs,
and skirt of plain material, and full waist of
the figured. The waist is made over fitted
lining. The back is plain. The graceful front
is made by putting the lining fronts down on q
piece of the goods large enough not to have any
seam down the middle. Extra folds are fast
ened in at the top of the shoulder seam, and
then the neck and armholes are curved out
to fit the lining. The extra fulness is gathered

straight one but fastens at one side. The
front too fastens along the shoulder seam and
down one side with concealed hooks and eyes.
The silk sash is tied in front with a soft bow.
The sleeves are full and caught up in pretty
folds. The deep cuffs are finished at the wrists
with buttons and narrow fold of the light
material. The little jacket is made with
deep slash down the back. The coat is short

That strain of morbidity in the Puritan
conscience which supplied Hawthorne with
motives is curiously active today in the
descendants of some of the old Puritan
families. There is one family in which it
has persisted in manner as tragic as it is

men made income tax returns, used to put

haps again withdraw it, tortured lest he

The craze for publicity is eminently the
vice of the present day--the day of unrest
and feverish Discrimination TO live in the
quiet shadow of home rather than in the
blazing glare of publicity. This trumpet
blowing, now in one form and now in an
other, is empbatically one of the signs of
the times 1t will pass, however, as all
things have passed in their order, and we
shall go back some day to quieter and
stille9 and more intrinsically modest order
of things. There are a few people left by
whom the craze for publicity and trumpet
blowing is despised These, and such as
these, are content to be and to do without
boast and without the vulgar applause of
MANY. The love of the few and the respect
of all who know them-the mild radiance
of their lives, shedding goodness and
beauty in their own spheres-this is the
sum Of their desire for notoriety.
In time of universal trumpet blowing
to come upon silent, quiet reality; to come
upon beauty unrecorded in the daily pa
pers; love that brings no golden gain;
merit that has no public market; festivi-
ties that have no vulgar, brazen trumpet
blown-what happinessl what refreshment!
1t reconciles us to the last to think that
such lovely lives are still to be found that
although so much pinchbeck exists, we
have yet nuggets of gold, and with univer-
sal trumpet blowing elsewhere, here, at
least, is the sweet melody of hidden, soft
and sacred music-Once Week.
