ers aud other necessary machinery. phe
cars can be run in the chamber at one
end aud out at the other, and in this way
material which has been disinfected can
be kept from that which is presumed to
be infected.
The disinfecling plant when placed
ia position will be connected by railway
trscks running along the pier, so that
when a vessel arrives baggage or clothing
TO be disinfected can be placed on the
cars on wire trays or In wire baskets
similar TO those In use at the state
quarantine station. and at once run in
the chambers The latter are fitted
with a galvanized hood TO prevent
the water Of condensation in the
steam from falling on the
articles TO be dislnfeoted. To prevent
undue condensation OF steam the ex
terror Of the chambers will be covered
with magnesia. IL the material TO be
disinfected Is Of a delicate nature the
cars have beea provided with "a series of
bronze wardrobe hooks. In this sway
articles of clothing can be -exposed to the
disinfectlDg process without much liza
bility to damage.
In the method OF dlsinfection after the
clothing or other material has been
placed In chamber the door is made
completely tight. when the steam in the
jacket will soon bring the clothing 10 y
temperature nearly equal 10 that of the
steam used; the air Is then exhausted
by the vacuum pump. after which
by opening valve the steam
Is admitted from the Jacket and
carried into the chamber itself. the the.
ory being that heat alone is not sufficient
to kill any poisonous germs which
may be present. all air must be
removed, then heat applied Steam Is
used as being the most convenient med
ium for carrying the heat
Another advantage in having two
smaller chambers instead Of a single
large one is that one can be used at a
time, OF they can be used alternately,
making a continuous working. The
chambers each weigh about 1000
pounds.

one of her pupils succeeded her as
principal and so on down to the pres
ent time, which fact led some one to
say OF Mrs. Lincoln: ''She was not
only its first principal but it's princi-
Pile" for her works has always been
used there, and from this school
teachers have gone out all over the
country.
In the field of cooking now the de-
mand is for teachers for the public
schools, and these teachers receive the
regular public school salary; good
teacher can now be fairly certain of
obtaining a situation. A high school
education is necessary and in some
cases teacher is required to have a
normal school training. Cooking is a
study that embraces much of a great
many sciences-chemistry, physiology,
botany, physics and natural history.
So little attention has as yet been paid
to the scierce of cooking that there is
in this art a wide field for original
work. The schools and some of the
colleges are beginning to see the needs
of the time, and courses in physiology,
sanitary science and hygiene are being
established with especial reference to
the requirements of teachers of cook
ing.
There are not now enough paying
positions in this country for the wom-
en- who look to teaching as their only
means of support. Our young women
ought to realize what splendid OPP
portunity there is for them in this
field, for at present it is somewhat diff
ficult to find teachers fully and thor
oughly equipped for carrying out an
ideal course in cookery. On the i'm
portance of this same art, John Ruslkin
says: Cookery means carefulness, in
ventiveness, watchfulness, willingness
and readiness of appliance 1t means
the economy of our great-grandmothers
and the science of modern chemistry
1t means much tasting and no vast

THE ART OF COOKING.
A New and Useful Calling for In
teIligent Women.
The Story of "a Pioneer Worker In the
Noble Cause-Mrs. ID. A. Lincoln
and the Work She Has
Accomplished.

In her valuable lecture delivered be-
fore the woman's congress at the
worlds fair. Mrs. D. A. Lincoln said:
Cookery is one of the highest and
most essential arts, and / say cooking
is an art, rather than a science, for
science teaches us to know, art to do;
but the practice of the art of cookery
should be carried on according to GER
tain scientific principles l hope that
l shall see the time when the subject
of food, in all its various phases, from
the chemistry of its formation to its
physiological effects, will be science
by itself and taught in all our schools,
being made a leading feature of the
curriculum" A beginning has been
made in this direction by the introduc-
ton of cooking into our public schools.
In seven years classes have been sue
cessfully conducted in school kitchens,
especially adapted for the purpose, in
New Haven, Providence, Philadelphia,
Pittsburgh and New York, and many
other cities have followed in the good
work. In Massachusetts the legisla-
tors have been considering the ques-
ton of introducing cooking into the
high schools of every city of 10000 in
habitants.
The teaching of cooking is COM
paratively new field for women. Miss
Parloe, of Boston, and Mrs Corson, of
New York, were the pioneers, Mrs.
Lincoln. of Boston. coming on the
field about year later. At this time
there were five leading teachers in the
country, including Mrs. Ewing, who
taught in the west, and Mrs. Rorer, of
Philadelphia. Miss Parloa was the
first to start a school of cooking,
which was very expensive private
school in Boston. The women's edu-
cational association wanted to start a
cheaper school and out of this wish
grew the Boston cooking school,
whose first principal was Mrs. d. a.
Lincoln. Mrs. Lincoln says that her
only qualifications for that position
were that she was an educated woman
and good housekeeper She took a
few lessons of professional cook and
began her work of fitting herself as
she went along; she grew up with the
school, acting as principal for six
years, whereupon she resigned on ac-
count of her sisters death. When the
school began to grow popular there
was a demand for teachers and there
were none. Miss Parloa consented to
teach normal class in the school and
Mrs. Lincoln became member of the
class that she might have the advan-
tage of this training After Mrs. Lin

vention of lady who was persuaded
to try her hand at patents by the force
of circumstances.
While nursing her husband during a
long illness she felt the necessity of
providing some comfortable support
for his head. and finally devised an ar

porting frame which gives a soft

position. We have all at various times

change to the sofa, and found her sim

these delectable inventions
Still another new invalid's comfort,
which Is also the result of woman's
wit. is very simply-constructed chair
designed for the purpose of carrying a
patient from the bed to the sofa, or
from room to room. 1t consists of
strips of canvas which are easily
slipped under a patient and when
lifted form canvas chair, either in
an upright position or a recumbent
one. This continuance is without
doubt the very best yet discovered for
moving an invalid, as il entails no ex-
ertion whatever on the part Of the suf-
ferer and is boon in the way of
changing the physical and moral at
mosphere for brief space.
Apart from the suffering, one Of the
greatest trials to bear in a long illness
is the dead monotony Of being shut up
within limited space of four walls;
however attractive and cheerful the
room may be, change to one of less
agreeable aspect and surroundings
brings with IL a sense Of repose and
rest. Many invalid chairs have been
patented, but all of them necessitate
more or less exertion, or disturbance
on the part of the patient.

THE WORKING DRESS.
Why It Should Be Simply Made and Com-
fortsbly Fitted.

fortably Fitted.
It is good thing for housekeepers
that the skirt ard blouse styles of
dress are in such general use. These
loose styles of waists are much more
convenient in working than the tight
fitting waist, which in wash fabric
is SO apt to shrink and get out of
shape.
A light quality of American flannel
of dark cloth color is the most suitable
material for working dresses, though
some housekeepers use a firm. good
quality of cambria or gingham in win
ter as well as summer. In either case,
whether the working dress is made of
wool or cotton, it should be simply
made and comfortably fitted, and
made SO that it may be easily washed.
The best design is a skirt with plain
hem, with possibly a few tucks above
it, and for the bodice some variety of
the blouse waist, which is made with
out lining, so that it may be worn
over close-fitting underwaist. The
varieties of this comfortable under
waist are so great that styles may be
found becoming to stout as well as
slender figures. In neat dress of this
kind, with white apron at hand to
put on in exchange for ginghsm one,
the working woman may always be
presentable in case of an unexpected
caller.-N. Y. Tribune.

DAINTY PINcusHIoN
Any Bright Girl Can Fashion Que at q
Tridlng Expense.

A novel pincushion, and one which
may be fashioned at very little expense.
is made in the shape of an egg. Cut two
pieces of cardboard any size you may
desire, cover neatly with eeru or white
linen, and after this is done sew the
two pieces together. The decoration,
which consists of violets with their
leaves and buds. can be either EN-
broidered or painted. If embroidered
the flowers should be worked in two
or three shades of the violet silks,
with tiny French knot of gold-col-
ored silk in the center of each. EN-
broider the stems in varied shades of
green, bronze and gray greens; these
are exceedingly pretty and harmoni-
GUS. The design will have to be EN-
broidered before the linen is put over
the cardboard. If painting is pre-
ferred it is more easily accomplished
after the pincushion is finished, as
there will then be no danger of rub
bling the painting. Place pins all
round the edge of the egg, and finish
