Eating Before Sleeping. Much has
been said on this subject of late sup
pers; but recent consenus of opinion
at meeting of medical practitioners,
was the following: Brain workers
should not go to bed supperless, but
some nutritious, easily-digested article
should be eaten. A bowl of stale bread
and milk, rice, or farinaceous food, with
milk or hot soup, was highly recon-

Milk Toast ALL do not know that
milk toast is more tasteful If the bread
Is toasted evenly and more thoroughly
than for dry or buttered toast, and the
milk has teaspoonful of sugar added,
and the same amount of flour and but
ter rubbed together for thickening. In
serving, put ono layer of toast in the
hot dish, and pour little of the milk
over 1t, and repeat until the dish is full.
Do not let the toast soak, as it is not
nearly so nice as when it is first made.

hall is to cut window through into
the next room. This may be made a
very ornamental feature on both sides
by being treated like an ordinary win
dow with a deep sill to hold various OBJ
jects of bric-a- brac. The glass in such
window should have small, loaded
panes; and if preferred it may be
stained. This also makes becoming
receptacle for ferns or other plants
and if placed on both sides has the effect
of quite vista-N. Y. Tribune.

-Cat-tail pincushions are something
of novelty made in clusters of three
and five in shaded art plush, which
comes for the purpose. They copy the
tufted reed very closely, and are made
on the actual reed stalks, the cluster
being then tied together with ribbon.
The wide use of the little silver, gilt
and enamel stick pins has evolved the
use of a cushion for them, These cush-
ions are thin, fat velvet and plush bags,
packed very close and mounted on stiff
paste board, duly covered with muslin.
Narrow ribbon bands let them hang
from convenient bit of molding near
the dressing-table, and an assortment
of the useful little lace catchers is thus
spread for selection
