EXPERIMENTS AT KEW.
How to Care for Winter Clothing.

The methods for destroying moths annually
recommended are countless. yet many prove
utterly powerless against the increase Of the
little pest How often the housekeeper signs
heavily when. at the commencement Of winter,
she passes cloaks and furs in review, at the
sight Of the ravages in these garments. A hole
In the overcoat or a bare spot in the fur trim
ming will render the costly article worthless.
After a long trial of all sorts Of preventives-
pepper, insect powder. moth balls, &c.-a way
was discovered which for several years has
proved complete protection against these in
sects.
A large wooden chest is used for storing all
our winter clothing. The bottom is first
covered with layer Of thick paper, on which
is laid number of linen rags soaked in kero-
sene oil and wrapped in paper. Over these is
chest n large linen sheet ample enough to hang
over the sides. and lay upon it the winter
clothing carefully folded, first Of course.
brushing it thoroughly that dust and moth
eggs, If any have been laid. may be removed,
otherwise all precautions would be vain. Put
the heaviest articles. such as mems overcoats,
at the bottom. then the ladies' evening cloaks,
then the lighter winter jackets and shawls and
scatter Jumps OF camphor thickly among the
garments and also in the pockets and sleeves
The fur collars and NUTS, into which bite of
camphor are also thrust should be laid on the
top. Lastly fold the sheet closely over the
whole, tucking it in tightly at the corners III
not large enough to do this put a second one
over the whole. Lock the chest and set il away
in cool place if possible till the next autumn
Some persons who objected to the use of kero-
sene lest it might soak through the sheet have
substituted, with entire success, LAYERS Of tar
paper placed below and above the sheet. This
paper can also be laid between the garments,
but care must be taken not to let il touch
them, as the color might stain the fabrics-

Advantages Of Old Costume.

FROM tue SATURDAY REVIEW
We should like to call attention not oniv to
the picturesqueness but to the convenience of
the male costume during the first Twenty-Five
years of the sixteenth century. Many Of our
doctors are assuring US that an extraordinary
amount Of pulmonary diaeass is due to the fact
that men are in the habit Of going about of an
evening much more lightly dressed than during
the daytime, wearing waistcoats of q thinner
material and open in front upon the chest. pre-
cisely the part of the body which should be
most protected. Now. the doublet screens the
chest from every wind, and can be made of
the lightest material in summer and of the
heaviest In winter. II is quite true that the
legs were more exposed than they are at
present. but, at the same time, il we study
infinitely the drawings and engravings of the
sixteenth century, We observe that in winter
the men are represented ~ either wearing
worsted stockings, CATERS or long boots.
II Is mistake to imagine that the streets Of
London in the sixteenth century presented .
much more lively appearance than they 40 at
present. The everyday dress Of the people,
even OF the highest rank. was almost invaria-
bly, made OF broadcloth Of Q sober color, oc-
casionally enlivened with velvet and smart
ribbons. II was only on state occasions or
festivities. parties, balls and public entertain
ments that the gay silks and vslvsts and the
cloth Of gold were exhibited, and IL must b
remembered that 20 costly were the mstsrials
which could then b. employed In male or
female dress that not unfrequently parents left
their best clothes by win 70 thoiI iAvorito ehil.

EASTER EGGS.
Some Suggestions for the Qualification Of the
Little Ones.

Some Suggestions for the Qualification of the
Little Ones.
Children are as fond of novelty az their
elders, SO every year at Christmas and Easter
fresh varieties of toys appear to delight the lit
tie ones. German lady has devised a pretty
Easter egg. which is not difficult to make at
home il one has time and patience .r
The egg should first be boiled with anv of the
harmless dyes which can now be purchased Mt
all stores where such things are sold. then
sawed across with fret saw and the contents
| removed. Next gum the two halves of the
| sheli together for the distance of two-fifths of
an inch with strip of postage stamp fastened
on the inside.
Then with closely clipped WOODEN balls of yell
low, black and yellow, white. &C., make NUN
Der Of chickens. For this purpose take fine wire
double it. then wind the wool over the card
board for the balls-the first and second ones
must be the largest-and as soon az each ball
| is ready 20 tie slip it on the wire. When the
first ball is finished. tied and clipped, bend the
| end Of the wire firmly around it, leaving bit
projecting. Slip the second ball on the wire
and when this is accomplished the legs must be
made-the directions will be given Iater-and
| twisted around the wire. Next slip on three
more balls, each smaller than the preceding
one. These live form The chicken. The bit Of
wire left projecting from the first ball forms
the bill, on which must be gummed the sharp
quill end OF feather. which afterwards is nearly
concealed by winding fesh-cOlored yarn over
it. For the little feet three bits OF wire for
the claws, bind them firmly together at the top
with the wire that is to form the legs and wind
fesh-colored yarn around the whole from the
bottom to the top. Next clip the chicken into
the best shape possible and supply it with two
round black glass beads for eyes. Slip one
into each of the egg shells
black chicken in gilded shell would be
pretty penwiper. Some one who wishes to
make an Inexpensive Easter gift may welcome
this suggestion.
will add for the benefit Of those who have
not made these clipped balls that an excellent
way Is to cut two circles from card board, make
a round hole in the center Of EACH place the
two disks together and wind the wool from the
center over the edges until the whole 10 COW
cred. With pair OF sharp scissors cut through
the wool around the outer edges of the circle
then part the card boards. slip bit OF stout
Irvine between them, wind It several times
around the wool in the center and tie firmly.
Slip the pieces Of card board out-this is done
by cutting them across from the outer edge to
| the center-and clip the wool Till it forms .
| smooth, even ball.

The Insane Asylum.

DR.. Barker. superintendent of the
Southwestern Insane Asylum in this city,
has made his report, which is as follows:
THE buildings were completed and
furnished April l, and on the 9th the first
patients were received. On the 30th
twenty male patients were transferred
from the State LunatIc Asylum at Aus
tin. In all 142 patients have been re-
ceived 90 males and 40 females; 10 have
been discharged cured; one was dis
charged improved; two have escaped and
one died, leaving total on hand October
81, of 1875. The death was caused from
heart disease. We will be unable to
occupy the sixth ward until an increased
water supply is obtained. Five of the
six wards, three of which are for males
and two for females, are now about full.
No negro patients have been admitted.
The few for which admission was asked
were refused and referred to the other
asylumnS on account of the wards being
so constructed that they would be brought
into close contact with the white pa
tipntS -
