A charming dress Of pearl gray ba-
tiste with pink carnations has bodice
and long ribbons of gray velvet, with
wide neck ruching of gray chiffon. A
couple of pretty house dresses of cham
brey or bingham are indispensable. It
is surprising how little a lady can get
along with and look well, if she has the
judgment to buy only good goods, make
them up carefully, and take proper
pains to keep them in order after
they are finished. Dust and care
lessness ruin more dresses than actual
wear. The most sensible and practical
economy is not shown by the purchase
Of cheap goods and fimsy trimmings

OF EGGS.
Rules Which Should lie Adopted by A
Progressive SbIpnerx

Rules Which Should De Adopted by All
Progressive shippers.
The change from packing and ship
ping eggs in barrels and old boxes to
that of the almost universally adopted
thirty-dozen cases is a great improve
mcnt. Too many shippers are quite
careless in the employment of help,
which in most cases are boys who may
mean well enough. but lack the expert
ence in packing, often neglecting to
put the required chaff or cut straw on
the bottom of the case, or pack the
eggs in broken, torn or imperfect fill
ers, which causes brcakage in transit.
Or they fasten the lid down without
first placing the long clean straw or
other packing on top of the eggs, SO
that the entire top layers will not
break should the case be turned down
or given a Y jolt Every shipper
should keep a supply of new filters on
hand to replace any that may become
torn or impure from broken eggs.
Strictly fresh eggs, properly packed
in good cases, would never have a ''loss
off" except when they are shipped in
very warm weather from q distance, or
are roughly handled during the trans
portation. Every shipper should know
by a careful study Of his trade the
quality of the stock he buys, and should
reject all imperfect eggs just al they
are rejected by the city trade and GUS
toner. The sooner all shippers adopt
this rule the sooner they will bring up
the trade to that perfection its im-
portance demands. Produce Trade

COMBINATION COSTUMES.
Pretty Things Made Up of Plain an
Striped Materials.

Pretty Things Made Up Of Plain and
Striped Materials.
Among the latest revived ideas il .
com animation costume made of plain and
striped material, either all silk or wool,
or made up together. An example Of
this idea is shown in a reception dress
of satin striped MORE and plain satin.
The MORE is made in a bell skirt with
a train and a very closely-itted waist,
a long outside garment, a compromise
between n basque and a ~redingote, and
has plain, square fronts, which extend
two-thirds of the distance from waist
line to hem. The backs are shorter,
covering only about one-half of the
length of the skirt. A fitted bodice
of the satin is laced in front from
waist-line to a point about midway
of the bust. From here, sections Of the
material in rever fashion fall over the
shoulders, turning back from a point
midway between the sleeves and tho
collar; the sleeves are very full from
shoulders to elbows, below this fitting
the arm closely. This r~edingote bodice
has the edges trimmed with a very
fluffy trimming made of loops of silk.
somewhat after the fashion of the old.
time moss-trimming.
A similar model is shown in striped
and plain suiting. This has a short
skirt and is intended for a very stylish
traveling-dress.
A novelty is a bodice with draped Sec
tions from the sleeves across the front
and back. These sections are gathered
into a puff over the bust, form fluffy
epaulets at the shoulders, and are made
as fiat as possible at the back; but this
style is neither pretty nor becoming.
1t gives a suggestion of round shoulders,
and is not at all symmetrical
No costume is in good taste which has
any special prominence over the Shout
der-blades. Such an arrangement al
ways destroys the graceful lines of a
good figure, and makes a bad or indif-
ferent n simply hideousl The utmost
fatness should be preserved from the
tops of the shoulders down the back to
the waist-line. Any attempt at this
sort of trimming must be disposed with
the greatest care, or the effect of the
most beautiful costume is easily marred.

Too much stress cannot be laid upon
the duty to make the horse understand
what is wanted of him. Few horses
fail to respond to the drivers require
ments if the animal knows Just what
is wanted and is handled properly. We
saw that illustrated a few days since.
A gentleman mounted an excellent
saddle horse. He was unaccustomed
to riding and jerked up the reins too
tightly. A tender mouth added to the
subsequent denouement- The animal
became confused, reared and then
backed into the hind wheels of a buggy,
breaking one of them. and In some way
finally falling. After the animal was
got upon its feet and the rider had
been extricated from horse and buggy
wheels, another man mounted and by
different management made the ami
NAL understand what was wanted and
did not jerk her mouth. In one case
she was confused. in the other she wss

One day recently a French doctor,
who had company to dinner, a quiet
ly chatting in a corner of the drawing
room, when he was told that a patient
had come to see him who was strongly
recommended by some fellow-practi-
TONERS and whose card was brought in
by the page. The doctor submitted
with a bad grace and stepped into his
surgery. The visitor was in an ad.
vanced stage of consumption. The
bronchial tubes were in a deplorable
condition and the vocal chords nearly
o out. Our physician was in the
habit of ascertaining the condition of
the patient by asking him to count.
and generally stopped him at thirty or
thirty-6ve-quite long enough for the
purpose. This time, also, DIR. P
asked his. patient to count. Time
passed on, and the guests began to feel
alarmed at his protracted absence.

THE LAXATIVE GUM DROP.

When you feel out of sorts and yow
dinner begins to distress you get a box of
the Laxative Gum Drops and you will
soon be relieved of your disagreeable SEN
sations. These Gum Drops are the finest
eathartic in the world for they contain moth
ing deleteriouS so that they al be taken
at any time and in numbers according to
the constitution of the patient. With
some people two are sufficient, others may
require from four to six but no matter how
many are taken, no i'll results will follow.
They are made of pure materials accord
ing to a regular official prescription SO that
no danger results even when more are
taken. This renders them a great remedy
for children. They taste like the ordinary
gum drop which they resemble in form so
that children need not know that they are
taking medicine at all. When they are
taken regularly they will produce the re-
quired effect even upon the most obstinate
case of constipation. Ask for them and
do not let the dealer give you any thing
else, for nothing else is half so good.

Waxs Of Cooking the Banana.

The people of this country do not yet
know how to use the banana. In the
tropical climates, where the banana
furnishes the principal article of diet,
the inhabitants have found numerous
methods of utilizing this delicious fruit,
which render it at once nutritious and
palatable. They boil it, they bake it
as we do sweet potatoes, they peel it,
cut it in slices and fry n in a batter,
