WASHINGTON LETTER.
WASHINGTON, Dec IS. $50,

w jim DcC 10, IoOE.
Speaker Reed will probably not an
nounce the House Committees until ius
before the adjournment for christmas re-
cess, which is expected to take place or
Friday or Saturday of this week. There
is still much uncertainty as to the chairman
of such important committees as Ways and
Means and Appropriations, although the
contest is believed to have narrowed down
to Payne, of New York, and Dingley, of
Maine, for the first, and Cannon, of Ills !,
and Henderson, of Iowa, for the last.
The members of the Utah Commission
arrived in Washington several days ago
and will remain until they can get an op.
to present handsomely engross-
ed copy Of the constitution, ratified by the
election held last month, to Mr. Cleveland
with the request that his proclamation
formally declaring Utah state be issued
at an early day. Had Mr. Cleveland been
n Washington where it is certainly his
iuiy to be during the session of Congress,
at no othertime, the members OF the Com
mission might have saved on their hotel
ills, but whether Utah would have become
state any sooner is doubtful. as Mr.
s.veIand will not issue the proclamation

Yeast Poultice: Stir flour and wa.
ter into paste, add little yeast and
set the mass aside to ''rise.n After
fermentation has actively begun, sew il
up in muslin bag sufficiently large to
allow for the expansion OF its contents.

In washing or securing paint little
soap should be used, the alkali of the
soap having a tendency to injure the
paint. But water alone is not suffi-
cient. After securing with the brush,
and soap, plenty of water should be
used to.wash off what remains of the
soap; otherwise, if left on the paint, it
will cause its decay.-Leeds Mercury.
A Nice Way to Warm Over Rem.
nant of Ham: Chop the meat fine, be.
ing careful to remove any pieces Of
gristle and fat. Put a tablespoonful
of butter into saucepan, when hot
add a tablespoonful of flour, cook I'M
til smooth but not brown, add grad
ually a cup of rich milk, stirring con-
stantly, add the chopped ham, sea-
soned highly with red pepper and a
little salt Let the meat get thorough
ly hot and serve. The beaten yolks of
two eggs may be added, and makes
pleasant variety.-Boston Budget.
Milk Custards: This delicious des-
sert is variously termed rennet custard,
slip, or junket, the difference lying
only in flavor or in more generous
use of eggs. Slip, in its simplest form,
is merely rich milk, slightly favored
and sweetened, and ''set' with liquid
rennet, large tablespoonful being re-
quired to a quart. This is most re-
freshing dessert for a hot day, and pos
sesses great advantage in being SO
easily prepared. A beaten egg or two,
spoonful of wine and a dash of nut
meg, and slip is converted into junliet.
Serve with cream. 1t may be further
varied by the addition of few spoon
fuls of fruit-juice well sweetened and
carefully stirred in, or even a handful
of berries, in their season, which inn
part color as well as flavor to the dish.
If one chances to be near cheese fac
tory or creamery, one can usually OBJ
tain rennet much more cheaply than
at drugstore. Country Gentleman.

HATS AND THEIR WEARERS.
The Madonna Girl, the Poets Ideal, Is the
Rage at Present.

The Madonna Girl, the Poets Ideal, Is the
Rage at Present.
The bonnet whose plumes stand
straight up to great height from a
modest Dutch band, looks great deal
like Fiji head-dress, but if it be
styled a Dutch bonnet the suggestion
of the South seas is not amiss. For,
be it known, the Dutch bonnet is on
top in a double sense; it reigns
find it universally becoming, too. Isn't
it funny women are SO modest? They
confess with delight that each fashion
proves becoming, instead of realizing
that it is their own everlasting charm
that is proven. No matter what she
puts on, pretty woman is going to
be slightly. 1t is necessary only that
she should not look strangely different
from other girls that her prettiness
may be recognized. So it is that all
tumble unto the same fashions with
fitful frenzy. Harmony being thus Sc
cured, beauty gets its invariable rec
ognition. All the same, the Madonna
girl and the big girl with rather heavy
features and fine eyes is having her
time just now.
: A fetching toque is thus described:
1t is of sapphire blue velvet, which is
arranged in series of puffs and loops
in front and around the brim, dimin-
ished in size at the back. On either
side toward the front, feathery aig-
rettes are placed. A pretty variation
on the neck ruche binds big roses to-
gether in strand of bright ribbon.
The ribbon ties in front under the
chin, is fitted smooth y in at the col
lar and sweeps stiffiy and primly over
the blouse front, turning under with
it to tuck in with it at the belt. Cor
responding bands are added to each
side and fit closely. Almost all the
new bodices will show this effect or
some modification of it. Very slender
women may try the bodice bloused in
the back as well as in the front, but
the experiment is risky for any body
but bean pole. Boston Traveller.
