WASHINGTON. April 1e. 1S95.--A re-
port had been received at the Depart
ment of State from Consul Eugene Ger
main. stationed at Zurich. Switzerland,
showing the novel plan by which food
and clothing are furnished to poor chill
dren in that country. Public soup houses
are established. at which w~orkingmen
as well a poor travellers can obtain food
nearly at cost.
The price for a portion OF soup, enough
to feed two persons. is fixed at two cents
and a special rate of one and q quarter
cents is made for scholars. These chil-
dren who are too poor to buy, inform
the eacher privately. and to f'hsm alone
between four ayes" say whether they
wish to pay or take the portion gratu-
ftously. and when the children sit down
to eat no one knows who is .eattng
aims soup"
In 1884, some ID. 1876 children were sup
plied with food and clothing in this
way. the total cost Of the supplies being
about $4,000. No evil c-onsequences nave
been heard of but many good results
nave been reported.

The very convenient fashion of hav-
ing several waists to alternate with
the same skirt offers variety suited
to different occasions, and accommo-
dates a not overfull pocketbook. Many
of the shops now bring very nicely
fitting skirts of materials ranging
from the palmer alpaca and serges to
the handsomest satins and brocades;
these are well made, and if you go to
good house you can depend upon fine
and stylish set TO your skirt; when you
count the cost of the material itself
and the necessary findings, with rea-
sonable addition for the cost of max
ing, you will see that the price asked
for these skirts is reasona BILE. One ad-
vantage in this purchase is that if
called away from home on 4 trip of
pleasure or business you can fit your
self out with at least one costume be-
fore your dressmaker or yourself could
possibly arrange a dress for you. In
many cases it is more satisfactory to
have the waist made to your order, but
it does not take long to execute such
an order; or, if you are skillful, you
can fashion many of the pretty and
becoming waists yourself.
