The N. X Fairbardk Company OF Chi,
cago have lately brought suit In the United
States Court against w. H. Henry, OF this
city, for SA,OO000 for infringement OK their
trade mark "Cottolene.n Tho N. X. Fair
bank Company sets forth that they orlgl-
mated, prepared, and put upon the market
new food product consisting OF refined
Cotton Seed Oil and small proportion, OF
Beef Suet, making pale yellow material OF
tho consistency and substance Of lard, al
most without odor and intended to take the
place Of lard in cooking,
In order to indicate the source and gen.
uineness Of their new food product they
originated, coined, and used as q TRADE mark
the word "Cottolene." The healthfulness
and many other advantages of Cottolene
over lard were so apparent that Cottolene
became a., once very popular and is now
largely sold all over the country.
The new food product and its namo SCOT
tolenen have become widely known as the
product of The N. X. Fairbank Company.
The trade mark is described as a "trade
mark for Oleaginous Food Substances,
&c., consisting Of head or neck of a
Steer or other bovine partially enclosed by
sprigs and branches Of the Cotton plant"
The N. X. Fairbank Company charges
that w. l.. Henry, of MACON, Ga, dealer
in fresh meats and food products generally,
has been and is endeavoring unlawfully to
avail himself Of the benefits of the name
"Cottoenen and its popularity; that he has

vocating extremes that would be moro
appropriate for an opera bouffe queen
than for sensible woman who wished
to take her exercise in q sensible man
ner.
The underlying principles OF correct
dress for the wheel are comfort and APP
propriatencss. The carrying out Of
these principles need in no sense con-
tiict with good taste or merge into con-
spicuousness.
There is perfect freedom in a skirt,
provided the skirt is made as it should
be.
The woman who rides is obliged not
only to dress with due regard to her
appearance when mounted, but also
should exercise the same care in re-
gard to an attractive and inconspicr-
Gus appearance when she dismounts at
the door of her friends house, the
store, or to enter hotel, or wherever
her faithful wheel may take her, on
business or pleasure bound
The fundamental principal of COM
fort for wheelwoman lies in the un-
derwear. Corscts should never be worn
under any circumstances. Neither IS
it desirable to ride without any sup
port for the body, especially if the
rider is inclined to stoutness. An
equipoise waist from which the bones
have been removed is the best substi-
tutc for the corset, as then the mus
cles are allowed to have full play, and
are not CONSTRUCTED in any way. Union
underwear is now SO universally worn
that it would seem almost unnecessary
to recommend it; but upon the wheel
it becomes almost a necessity, doing
away with much unpleasant thick
ness around the hips.
A pair of full Turkish trousers, made
of black India silk, will be found an
admirable substitute for the petticoat.
If preferred, equestrian tights arc
also extremely comfortable. Leggings
are stiff and uncomfortable adjuncts,
and arc not necessary. They interfere
with the ''anlSlc motion, which should
be cultivated by every woman who
wishes to ride gracefully.
For summer wear, low shoes and
ankles covered with smooth black
stockings are the most comfortable
The form of the skirt is by far the
most important part of the wheel
woman's attire. 1t should flare from
the hips, so as not to hoop around the
ankles or bind across the knees.
The skirt should clear the ground
about four inches, and be lined with
silk or satin to prevent clinging. An
Elton jacket or habit waist as one pre-
fers, makes q natty and feminine
adjunct to the skirt. This can be ex-
changed on warm days for the ever
popular shirt waist of cambria or silk
Given wheel properly adjusted for
her height and weight and few gen
cral directions in regard to dress, any
woman with ordinary intelligence and
taste may rest assured that in riding a
cycle she is doing nothing which de-
tracts from her dignity or personal APP
pearance, but on the contrary, she can,
by exercising her good taste and never
losing sight of the principle of appro-
priateness, soon find herself in the
full enjoyment of pastime not only
unsurpassed for its life-giving quail
ties, but which will prove itself to be a
veritablc fountain of beauty.-Har-

How to Fertllizc Tomatoes.

The market gardeners of Maryland
have brought the growing of tomatoes
to a nearly perfect science, and their
methods of planting and fe, tilizing are
therefore worthy of attention by toma.
to growers everywhere They recon-
mend applying 400 or 500 pounds OF
heterogeneous fertilizer broadcast, doing
this early in the season so that fire.
quent stirring of the soil will thor
oughly mix the fertilizer with it.
When the plants are set out they ap-
ply a small handful of the fertilizer to
each hill. Whether the crop is sue
cess or failure depends largely on
whether vigorous and stoclsy plants
or those that have grown tall and
spindling are planted. 1t is impossible
for the best system of manuring to
make spindling plants produce good
crop either in quantity or quality

WOMAN AND HOME.
A DRESDEN LUNCHEON.

~ Is An the Vogue for sprIngtImo En-
tertalnments-A Delightful Combination
OF the Dainty with the Elegant-Evory
Dish, Cup or Saucer Used Must 30 of
Genuine Dresden China.
A very dainty and flowery style of
luncheon is the vogue for springtime
entertainments, and into its scheme
enter oil the features, each and every
one, of the pretty table and its setting
forth. This is known rs the Dresden
luncheon.
First of all it is imperative that the
menu be as simple and limited as good
taste will allow.
Five courses, or six, including cof-
fee, are now considered sufficient for
the'most elegant and formal luncheon
party. A hostess bears in mind that It
is supposedly slight midday meal
that she is serving to guests who
have brealSfasted late and whose din
ner in the evening viii be more or less
elaborate and substantial.
Bouillon, game, an entree, salad,
dessert and coffee, is the accepted
menu.
With this most sensible innovation
of simplicity care is taken that the APP
pointments of service and table deco
ration arc as light and dainty as the re-
past. That they are very handsome
aud exquisite in detail does not mean
that the effect of simplicity is not Sc
cured in perfection.
The Dresden luncheon is considered
to combine the dainty with the cle-
giant more delightfully."- than any other
design of artistic entertainments yot
seen The keynote is the blending
everywhere upon the table of the del,
icatc Dresden china colors blue, pink,
yellow and violet.
The fine flowers seen upon the royal
china are scattered in embroidery over
the linen centerpiece; on this stands a
Dresden bowl holding an old-fashioned
nosegay of pink rosebuds, hot-house
daisies with their yellow centers, pan
sizes and heliotrope. These are tied
Savannah courier. (Savannah, Tenn.) 1885-1979, 1894-06-14


loosely together with bow of blue
ribbon, which gives the needed touch
of that color, unless one Is able to get
natural forget-menots or some other
fine blue flowers, like scillas. A few
airy and smaller lunches of the same
flowers, in little cut-glass stands, arc
placed about the table.
The candelabra have pink rose
shades.
The fingerbowl mats are embroid-
cred to match the Dresden flower cen
terpiece, and floating in the water of
the bowls arc the different flowers; n
few rose petals In one, a daisy in an
other and q pansy in another until each
has one.
Every cup, saucer, plate or dish used
is of Dresden china, the greater the
variety of their shapes the prettier.
The ice cream is served in small satin
cases, in the different pale colors, blue,
pink, violet and yellow. When boxes
in these colors cannot be procured
plain white is used. On the top of
each is tied little bunch of satin
flowers composed of tiny pink rose
buds, blue forget-me-nots, daisy, a
bit of heliotrope, or few violets
At the place of each guest is name
card, done in the Dresden design. The
cards are made of water-colors paper
and the design painted in water color.
Tho color of the painted ribbon bows
In the designs given varies in the diff
ferent cards in blue, pink, yellow and
violet, and where the loop and end OK
tend over the edge they are cut out,
making the ribbon look more realistic.
The sign of all Dresden ware from
the royal factories is the tiny blue
crossed swords on the reverse or bot
tom Of the dish, without which no piece
is genuine; so on the back of the cards
one must be sure to paint the sword
sign in just the right shade of old blue,
thus making complete the idea of O
veritable feast of Of royal Dresden.
A very new and pretty design for
name-cards at these luncheons is the
violet one shown in the second picture
A plain white or cream square envelope
Is used Tor this card. Where the name
is to be seen an opening like that of @
picture frame is cut through the face
of the envelope, line of narrow gild
ing finishing the edge. The name OF
the guest is written on plain card and
put inside the envelope so Us to show
through the opening.
Some other small graceful flower in
place Of the violet is sometimes painted
on it with good effect; and if one col
or, as yellow, for instance, pred omi
mates in the table decorations, a design
of jonquils or buttercups is chosen.
A cardboard rest is tied in at the tor
of these envelope cards by narrow
ribbon caught through two little sits
in the envelope over the one in the rest
itself. They arc then stood around the
table like dainty little picture frames
which in reality they are, making tho
most charming souvenirs when taker

tuted for the card with the namc on it
