ABOUT THE KITCHEN.

Onions, turnips and carrots should be
cut across the fibre, as it makes them
the more tender when cooked.
Pillow slips should be ironed length
wise instead of crosswise, if one wishes
to iron wrinkles out instead of in.
Clothes, when brought in, should be
separated and folded at once; if allowed
to lie together many wrinkles accumu-
late.
Soiled white kid gloves-If your
white kid gloves are soiled rub cream
Of tartar on them, and they will look
like new.
Preserve ferns or grass in their natural
colors by placing them in blotting paper
for As hours, and press them with heavy
weights. Maiden hair ferns can be very
successfully treated thus.
10 waterproof felt hat--Remove
the lining and paint the inside with
Canada balsam made hot. Hats made
waterproof and not ventilated will bring
on premature badness, SO punch few
holes in the side.
Half grain of alum to gallon Of
water will precipitate all earthly mat,cs
as well as vegetable, and will go far
toward destroying the animal matter,
yet the taste of the water will not be in
the least impaired.
Tea made from rain water is said to
be incomparably the best. Many house,
keepers keep stone jar in readiness to
catch any chance rain, which, when
obtained, is securely bottled and put on
ice, to be used when needed.
A pretty imitation Of ground glass can
be made for the hall door as follows ::
Dissolve three tablespoonfuls of EPSON
salts in a pint of warm water; apply the
liquid to the clean glass with common
paint brush. OF course, it must not be
exposed to the weather.
Lemon juice, squeezed in California,
treated with proservative process, and
sent east by the barrel, is now sold in
earthen jugs containing from half
gallon to 10 gallons. 1t is used for all
sorts of domestic purposes, for lemonade
and for making mixed drinks at the bar
and in clubs.
On bluing clothes-Mysteriou rust
spots Oh clothes are caused by Prussian
blue, which is substituted for indigo in
some kind, of laundry blue. To test
blue drop piece of washing soda in
mixture diluted with cold water. Ii the
compound turns to reddish hue Prus-
sian blue has been used.
Clothes that are sprinkled over night
this sultry weather are quite apt to
mildew before morning Rub them with
buttermilk and lay them in the sun and
the mildew, unless very bad, will dis
appear. Another remedy is salt and
vinegar. 1t may be well to state that
badly widowed clothes never can be
made white.
In the cucumber season, instead of
throwing away the peel and pulp, put
them in a jug of water on your toilet
table, and wash with this infusion.
You may also use slices of pulp instead
of soap. Cucumber has wonderful
cooling as well as softening properties.
Orange and lemon peel used in the same
way will keep the water soft and scent
it deliciously.

Probable Loss of the Little Boat in which

NEW York, Aug. 3l.-The steamship
Scandal, which reached port to-day, re.
ports that on Tuesday she sighted u
wreck estimated at about 80 feet long,
but it was too dark to make her out dis
tinctly. This derelict was encountered
in latitude 43.06, longitude 80. 10, which
point would be about so miles southeast
Of Sable Island.
From the small size CT the wrecked
vessel and her position when sighted il
is not impossible that it may have been
the little schooner.rigged sharpe Nina,
in which Captain A. Freitsch, the Nor.
wegian adyenturer from Milwaukee,
left this port to sail single-handed across
the Atlantic. The Nina is about 40 feet
long over all, and would be in about
the position mentioned on the date
when the Scandal passed the wreck.
The little vessel left this port August
9th in anything but seaworthy condi-
ton, and an untimely end to the craft
and her reckless skipper is in line with
predictions made at the time of her
start by sea-faring men who know well
the need of sound timbers and well
caulked planking.

AS to Changes of Linen,

Among people of limited means there
is popular superstition that frequent
changes of underclothing is gross ex-
travagance. On the contrary, if prop
erly managed, nothing Is more economi-
cal in hot weather than to wear a fresh
suit of linen every day. When one
walks much it is a matter of sheer
necessity to have clean stockings every
morning. Nor is anything easier than
to rub out pair of hose in basin kept
for this purpose, with CASTLE soap, and
two changes of water, the job is com.
pleted in five minutes and, pinned where
they catch the breeze, the Stockings dry
Immediately. With half dozen pair
Of hose and determination to be tidy
the poorest woman can be as charmingly
dainty as bondholder's wife. Nor is
it impossible TO follow this same plan
with cambria garments. If left to soak
in lather of soap and water every
'night and rinsed in the morning, they
are as fresh as need be. Of course,
they must be thoroughly laundcred once
week, and such perfunctory washings
only apply where clothes are not &C.
tually soiled but feel sticky and awry
No scrubbipg or injury to the hands is
necessary, and run through a small
mangle they come out smooth and de-
lightfully fresh in feeling. Each and
every one of these suggestions means a
saving of money, as clothes from which
the perspiration is quickly removed last
longer; stockings wear better when fire.
quently changed, and SO on. These
selfsame rules apply to care of the per-
son. One who rinses her mouth with
listerine once day, who uses clean,
stiff brush freely on her scalp every
morning, who never fails to do her ex-
ercises before big plunge bath, is sure
to have smaller bills with the doctors
and dentists than the woman who
neglects such details. None of them are
costly or difficult, and they all mean in
creased beauty, elegance and physical
robustness,

Some New Fhncie+ la Embroidery as See

Some New Fhncies Ia Embroidery as Seen
in london shops.
Some VI the newest book covers arc
made Of tiated linen painted with gold
and colors.
Sachets composed of moire often have
the wavy lines of the watering traced
out in tiny spangles or beads.
The newest tea cozics resemble
baskets full of tulips, daisies, narcssus
and other flowers, and arc made of soft
silk in artistic colors. The lower part,
the basket, fits over the teapot and the
handle passes over the top.
Handsome tea cloths arc now com.
posed of bright gold-colored linen.
Round the edges runs border resem.
bling black lace and worked with black
silk.
Striped brocade is one Of the new ma
terials used for covering blotters. Down
some OF the stripes runs pattern of
floral sprays, which is worked over with
silk. The divisions between the stripes
are followed with lines of chenille, bor-
dered on each side with feather, coral
and herring-bone stitch.
The new colored embroideries, worked
by machine on white cambria, are popu-
lar for trimming tea cloths, which are
made of white linen and embroidered
to match the frills.
The old-fashioned mignardise braid
has reappeared upon drab capes made
OF faced cloth, where it outlines an
elaborate design which almost covers
the cape. In and out of the curves of
the pattern are sprinkled jet paillettes
of various sizes.
The newest lamp shades have frill
of painted lace. The ground is yellow,
the details colored according to their
character-blue or red for tloral motives,
and green for leaves and stems.
Two wooden tobacco pipes, tied to-
gether crosswise with colored ribbon,
have the bowls stuffed to do duty as
pincushons.
The Royal School of Art Needlework
III London is introducing colored en-
broideries, carried out with fine wool on
cream and tinted canvas in the Danish
and Norwegian style. These are easy
OF execution and are sold traced out
with threads of the same colors as those
intended for the work. The edges are
finished with plated tasses and knotted
trlnges made of the woods used in the
embroidery.
Egg cozles are now made in the form
OF a water lily turned upside down, the
stalk forming the handle. The petals
OF the flower are of white or yellow
satin, the outside leaves Of green.
