Grape Jelly and Preserves.

For jelly select ripe grapes, free them
from stems and mash them thoroughly
Cook them slowly in closely covered
kettle for 90 minutes without adding
water. Squeeze out the juice, add a
pound OF sugar to each pint Of juice
and boil for 20 minutes. Green grape
jelly is made i'll the same way. After
weighing the sugar heat it in an oven
previous to adding to the juice.
For preserves free the fruit from
stems and skins, pat it into the preserv-
ing kettle and cook until tho seeds are
loose. Strain the grapes, weigh with
their skins and to every pound allow a
pound of sugar. Put the fruit again
into the preserving kettle, and when it
begins to boil add the sugar and cook
slowly for half an hour or longer.
Spiced grapes are fine. To 5 pounds
of grapes allow 3 pounds of sugar, a
pint Of vinegar, tablespoonful of cloves
and one Of cinnamon. Boil the pulps of
the grape and strain; then add skins, vim
egar, sugar and spices and boil for an
hour.

Ribbon Trimmings.

Ribbons play an important part in the
trimming of youthful gowns; also on
dinner and evening dresses for all ages.
Ribbon inches wide is required for
this garniture. MORE ribbon is prefer
red, but satin is also used. The collar
and belt are of ribbon to match. Black
ribbon is most used with black, blue or
brown dresses, white with gray or beige,
and delicate colors are chosen for white
muslin and light lawns, batiste, etc. A
popular garniture is in form of bretelles,
starting from the belt i'll front under q
horizontal bow, passing over the Shout
ders, where they are tied i'll fanciful
knots, then down the back to meet two
rosettes at the belt. This much is ia
miliar. The novelty is in the continual
ton of the ribbons, two behind and two
before, to the foot of the skirt, where
each end is tied i'll a smart square bow.

MANTEL DECORATED IN OIL coLoRs.

scattered across the frieze, with some
pine needles as if fallen there and dried,
or a vine of sweet peas running over the
top and across the corner of the glass
will form pleasing decoration.
The colonial mantel, too familiar to
call for description, is still popular de-
sign, being simple in construction, in
expensive to make and tasty in appear
ance. This style of mantel makes up
well in any native wood, such as oak,
ash, cherry, birch, hazel, whitewood,
etc. When worked in natural wood,
this design calls for carved ornaments
in low relief to be applied to the wood,
either before or after they are carved.

lengthwise at neck and waist line and
drawn more closely by a belt of ribbon
passed under the tucks Or through but
tonholes in the back and tied across the
front. Wide revers, daintily embroid-
cred and hemstitched or banded with
insertions and edged with valenciennes
lace, trim some costly gowns, while
others have a ichu Of embroidery and
valenciennes deeply pointed in front and
round in the back. Others again have
large lace trimmed collars and sleeves.
These gowns measure p yards wide,
and, as for the sleeves, these compete
with dress sleeves in width. A popular
fashion is sleeves reaching to the elbow,
where they are finished with deep
flounce of lace
White petticoats are being worn in
doors again and are everywhere more
popular than for long time. For the
street silk petticoats, however, hold
their place. There are also street petit
coats Of alpaca. gloriosa, sarso,. hair
cloth. To be quite correct petticoats
must match in color the walking dress.
French petticoats have no opening in the
back, either the walking skirt Or the
short underskirt, and are fitted below
the waist by darts in front, all the full
ness being drawn across the back by
tapes in a facing sewed on the skirt.
By the bye, most American women
wear their petticoats too long, even in
fine weather. A Parisienne never COM
mits the improperly of letting her skirts
dangle round her boots She makes a
wide distinction between the house dress
and the street dress when it comes to
length of skirt. ELSIE BEE.

MANTEL IN BRICK, IRON AND WOOD.

and make the open fireplace one of the
most attractive objects in a room. That
success i'll this particular line has been
attained is evident to all who inspect
the larger showrooms where everything
pertaining to the mantel and fireplace
is displayed. These rooms contain hun
dreds of designs in andirons, tenders,
fire sets, Innings screens, artistic
wrought iron and steel work, tile of
every description for hearths, facings,
floors and various other uses, marbles
and compositions as well as every known
means of heating from the smallest
room to the largest building
Among a number of designs for man
tets depicted by Decorator and Fur
nisher is an artistic suggestion worked
out in brick, iron and wood. The shelf
and top board are of wood, preferably of
oak. The body part of the mantel is of
any kind of brick, speckled or Tiffany
brick being handsome material, or a
terra vitria glazed tile or brick makes
handsome and artistic effect. The cor
ner irons and frames are of thin wrought
iron, studded every four or five inches
with old bolt heads riveted to the bands,
with the heads battered little out of
shape to lend them antique appear
ance. The Innings to the fireplace may
be built of brick, or they may be Of iron,
as a matter of choice The brick will be
rather more artistic and will receive
from the fire an uneven coating of black
that sometimes leads an antique appear
ance that is appreciated by the lover of
odd things.
A second design that works out well
for sitting OF bedroom and is effective
in almost any wood may receive its or
namentation at the hands of an artistic
amateur by following the directions OF
the authority quoted Construct the
mantel Of pine or wildwood, paint it
a cream white, with five Or six success
sive coats of paint for inside use.
When the last coat is thoroughly dry,
rub the painted surface with very fine
sand paper to obliterate the brush mark,
and with oil colors paint across the top
branch of apple wood, leaves and a few
ripe red or yellow apples. Scatter few
along the trieze below the shelf, and if
nicely executed the effect will be very
pleasing.
Other branches or sprays may be used

Was OF Noble Birth.
The suicide was thought to be but
an ordinary one. Later developments
show that the victim was Henry Oak

English families, and he was closely
connected with English nobility.
Twelve years ago he was recognized
as a leader of London society. He was
surrounded with wealth and social po'
sition, but lost all through woman.
