Serge, with its heavy cord, is the
material Of all others to which you
should give preference for everyday
wear. The skirt of your dress should
be simple, well-cut, but plain, and the
bodice, if it has decoration at all, one
that will not catch dust. A band of
ribbon will be sufficient decoration at
the wrists of the sleeves.
There are many ways of making
potato soup; the following is excellent:
Boil and mash in two quarts of water,
four large potatoes, small onion and
two stalks of celery. When done pass
through a sieve. Return to the fire,
season with salt, pepper, and two large
spoons of butter rubbed into one OF
flour. Add pint of creamy milk or
serve with whipped cream as in rice
soup Peas, corn or celery may be pre-
pared in similar way. -Housekceper.
Pepper Pot: To one pound of cooked
tripe cut in small pieces, add one onion
cut fine, one pint of pototoes cut in
dice, salt, pepper, ground cloves and
minced parsley, and an equal quantity
of cooked veal, chicken or beef; cover
with stock and cook until the potatoes
are done; fifteen minutes before serving
take two tablespoonfuls of flour, scald
and make into dumplings the size of a
pea, drop them in, thicken the gravy
with little flour, taste to see ii it is
seasoned properly and serve.-Amer-

cup of milk; turn it into bowl; add
one teaspoonful of butter, one tea
