Curling Feathers.

There are few things that give a
hat a more rumpled appearance
than an ostrich feather, limp and
detected, looking almost as fOrlorn
as when it and it's fellows arrive
fresh from ostrichland. Anyone
seeing an ostrich feather then would
think it only fit for the rag boy, but
a series of brisk scrubbings in warm
soapsuds on washboard, a judicious
patching together and elimination
of ragged places, where Sir Ostrich
has pruned himself too vigorously,
curling and combing, soon make
of the ostrich feather thing of
beauty and joy forever-until it
gets wet-when the process of re-
juvenation again becomes necessary.
Have a teakettle full of boiling
water, shake the feathers vigorously
through the escaping steam, taking
care that it does not get too damp.
This livens up the plume and re-
stores brilliancy if it has become
dull and dusty. Next take silver
fruit knife, and, beginning with the
feathers nearest the quill, take a
small branch between thumb and
forefinger and draw gently over the
blade of the knife until they curl as
closely as desired. Follow this pro
cess up each side of the tip, then
take a very coarse comb, comb out
carefully, and you have your plume
as good as ever.

FROST PUDDING.-One-half pack
age gelatin, three eggs, one pint
milk, two cups sugar and one lemon.
Soak the gelatin one hour in a tea
cuptul of cold water. Add one pint
of boiling water and stir till gelatin
is dissolved. Add two-thirds of the
sugar and the lemon juice. Beat
the whites of the eggs to a stiff
froth, and when the gelatin is quite
cold whip it in, spoonful at time.
When it is very stiff, pour into a
mold and set in cold place. Make
a custard of the milk, yolks of the
eggs, and remainder of the sugar
flavor with vanilla, and pour around
the base of the meringue.

The Many CAPABLE Ones.

A well-known writer and reader
of books for publishing firm lately
ventured on the statement that he
thought there were probably 1000
clever young women in our country
who were quite capable to turn out
the ordinary and most readable
English novel of the period; but as
to these books being "literature.
that was a different question. A
publisher recently told me that he
received so many offers of volumes
of verse and of novels from beginners
mostly young girls-that he would
require to keep special reader" if
they had all to be examined with
care. 1t was only possible to glance
at most of them. In the same con-
nection / may quote a sentence
which TennysOn once wrote: II
receive stanZa of verse sent to me
for every five minutes of my life,
but very seldom a volume of good
wholesome poetry" - Nineteenth
Century.

Cure for Chicken Cholera.

Here is remedy for chicken
cholera which is certainly simple,
and said to be an effectual cure for
that diseases 1t appears to be a pre-
tentative of that disorder, and as an
ounce Of prevention is worth II
pound of cure, it is at least worthy
of trial. 1t is as follows: "Scald
as much corn meal as is required to
feed the number of fowls, with boil
ing water. Make it tolerably greasy
with lard or meat fryings. If lard,
use salt in the same proportion as
for bread, If salty grease, no salt is
necessary. Black pepper ground, a
level teaspoonful to pint of meal.
Feed this twice week in the morn
ing, warm, and chickens will not
need any watching. They will not
have either cholera or gapes.
Chickens or turkeys, either, should
not be fed too often; twice a day in
summer, if they are running out,
and three times in winter, is often
enough. Most people feed their
fowls too much. My experience has
been, that all fowls that die with
cholera are excessively fat"

there were pretty women there-but
there is such a thing as the superla-
tive degree in beauty. Take rep
resentatiwe Northern girl of say,
twenty years of age. Her form is
loyely-not too plump-just right to
drive man wild; cheeks show the
ichor in her veins; her eyes sparkle
with mischief and glow in charity;
her language betrays just enough of
the earnestness and decision of her
character to make one dream of
melted but slowly cooling treacle |;
her lips have caught hint of the
flush of the Northern lights. She
cannot be improved upon, and she
makes one say with Pickney:
And would on earth there stood
Some more OF such frame,
That life might be all poetry

"Then consider along with the ILL
les of the field girl of eighteen
who dwells here in the warmer
climate. The lily feels rough and
uncomely in her presence. LANCER
Gus and atfectionate, her form has
the grace of a goddess; the rose
grows pale with jealousy when her
mouth is near; the breezes from
groves,of pineapple have sweetened
her breath to perfection; love and
purity slumber in her eyes, and her
voice is the blending of nightingales'
songs and summers twilight ves-
pers. She too, has no superior, and
looking at her, we recall Cranes

Old Fashions for Men.

1t is suggested that Clyde Fitch,
the dramatist, is indirectly response
BILE for recent extremes in mems cos
tunes. The revival of old-fashioned
bell-crowned hats and bell frock
coats followed quickly upon his play
of "Beau Brummel;" and frOck
coats such as appear in his play OF
Bohemia and illustrative OF
mems costumes in the QUARTER
Latin of Paris 20 years ago, are al
ready in evidence among afew we'll
dressed men OF New York, accom-
panied by the fiat-brimmed silk hats
of that period.

great lady was receiving the i'm

rolled down her dress, rafting on

Children's Collections

Children should be encouraged
and aided in making collections of
various objects that appeal to them.
If they seem to have no interest in
any particular subjects, often the
mother may lead them to some
choice by her own enthusiasm. She
may give the child the first shell or
plant, butterfly or photograph of
some famous person, place or thing.

great many interesting things about
French art and French artists, says

Here are some interesting remarks
concerning the Northern and South
ern girl, which we clip from Will Il.
Hale's casual impression column in
the Memphis Commercial Appeal:
1T is a we'll established fact that
there is great difference between
the women of the North and the wo-
men of the South. | am not uugal-
liant enough to assert that the adj
vantage in any particular Is with
those of the North-or with the wo-
men of the South. Mrs. Champers,
of Tampa, Fla, who is well known
by her advocacy of wOman'S rights,
and who is great traveller, points
out some distinguishing traits.
Having recently attended the wO-
mans suffrage convention held at
Washington, and seen the women
of the two sections together, she airs
her views on the subject.
1T seems that the more intense
commercial life in the North inn
presses woman's speech and man
ner's. They talk, walk and think
more rapidly than their sisters in
the South. They use many mer-
camille expressions from hearing
them so much in society and seeing
them so often in their papers, both
daily and weekly. In both sections
the women read great deal, but in
the North their tastes run more to
new novels, new poetry, and new
books of travel, while the Southern
taste runs more TO writings which
have received the approval of the
great authorities of the world. Pos
sibly, on account of the climate,
Northern women take less interest
in flowers and trees, birds and other
natural objects, than their sisters in
Dixie. A New York woman can
tell every variety of rose and chry-
santhemum, but 1t is very rare when
she can tell the name of the most
familiar flower, tree or bush, when
there is no bloom upon it. The
same reason makes them strangely
ignorant of the seasons for each par
ticular blossom. They depend upon
their green houses, and not upon
their own gardens. Another differ
ence is that the Northern women
discuss with great accuracy dress
materials, dress designing, and
dress-making, but they know little
or nothing OF the cotton, linen, wool
or ramie of which the materials are
made. They pay greater attention
to domestic comfort and pleasure
especially in entertaining, but most
of them depend upon servants and
employees At the same time the
tendencies of both North and South
are almost identical. Education
moral reform, literary culture, and
philanthropy are almost as much {
fad or fashion in the South as in the
North.
II have my doubts about the pref
test women being present at tina
convention at Washington. Lean
ness and homeliness and maturity
and woman's suffrage go together,
came very near sayingl OF COURSE

Don't cover a.child's head so that
it will inhale the air of its own lungs,
no matter how cold its sleeping
room.
Don't fail to keep the children's
feet dry and warmly clad in winter
and wet weather, for the circulation
is feebler at the eXtrenitie5 than
elsewhere.
Don't allow the youngster who is
enterprisingly strong upon its feet
to bear its weight long at time, no
matter how anxious the proud par
ents may be to show it off. Remem-
Der the danger of twisted or weak
ened legs.
Don't forget that protecting the
chest in cold or damp weather is also
important, if we would ward off
troublesome colds from the little
tots. And their habits of life should
be regular-the meals, the hour of
rest and the hour of rising should
all be timed.
Don't neglect the baby's scalp. 1t
should never be allowed to become
very dirty or scaly; apply yolks OF
eggs thoroughly with the fingers
aud after leaving it on awhile wash
with warm, soapy water; use a fine
tooth comb very gently, and ther
brush until thoroughly clean.

A thrifty palm growing in IA pot
will often add as much to the deco
ration of room as handsome piece
of furniture. Especially is this the
case when they are large and wide
spreading. They are easily grown,
and are beautiful for corner or bay
window or dining-room. They should
be planted in deep pots and should
be kept free from dust. This may be
accomplished by frequently wiping
the leaves with damp cloth. Palms
need plenty of water, and should be
50 placed that they may have the
light upon all their leaves, although
too much sunlight is not desirable.

What an Egg viii Do.

For burns and scalds nothing is
more soothing than the white of an
egg, which may be poured over the
wound. 1t is softer as varnish for
burn than collodion, and being al
ways at hand, can be applied imme-
diately. 1t is also more cooling
than the sweet oil and cotton, which
was formerly supposed to be the
surest application to allay the smart
ing pain. 1t is the contact with the
air which gives the extreme discom-
fort experienced from the ordinary
accident of this kind, and anything
that excludes the air and prevents
Inflammation is the thing to be APP

one of the best remedies for dysen-
terry. Beaten up slightly, with or
without sugar, and swallowed at a
gulp, it tends, by its emolument
qualities, to lessen the inflammation
of the stomach and intestines, and,
by forming a transient coating on
these organs, to enable Nature to re-

eased body. Two or, at most, three

Mr.. Carnegie WILL It is stated, expend
several millions of dollars to provide facili-
ties for the transportation Of the ore con-
sumed in his furnaces at Pittsburg and
Homestead from Lake Erie to his mills.
Mr.. Carnegie controls the Pittsburg, Lake
Erie and Shenango railroad, extending
southwark from Conneaut in the direction
of Fittsburg. and he Is also the owner of a
belt line in Pittsburg. He has made all ar
rangements for a connection between the
two railroads, which. when completed. will
give him a double-tracked line between
Conneaut and Pittsburg. At the northern
terminus Of the railroad immense docks,
provided with facilities of the most modern
type, will be constructed. The effect of
Mr.. Carnegie's move is expected to be that
he will in the near future be enabled there-
by to produce iron and steel cheaper than
his competitors. while his exclusive owner
ship. of a railroad will, 1t is thought, prove
an important factor in the adjustment Of
transportation charges.
The entire line will be double-tracked and
laid with 100-pound steel rails. Three
thousand new thirty-ton coal cars will be
ordered and arrangements will be made to
equip the road and docks for the handling
of 100000 tons of freight annually.
