Practice Walking,

An easy'way to practicewalking well
is to start out right. Just before you
leave the house walk up to the wall and
see that your toes, chest and nose touch
il at once; then in that attitude walk
away. Keep your head up and your
chest out and your shoulders and back
will take care of themselves. A south.
ern school-teacher used to instruct her
girls to walk always as if trying to look
over the top of an imaginary oarriag,
just in front of them. 1t was good adj
vice, for it kept the head raised. Don't
think these things are of no value They
add to your health and your attractive
ness, two things to which everybody
should pay heed.-St. Louis Republic.

How Expert Pastr, Cook. Make .
Fresh Strawberry Pie.


One q The most delicious Of all pastry
IS a pie Of fresh strawberries. Line a
deep tin piepate with the incest pastry
YOU can prepare. Fill me pastry with
uncooked rice and bake it in the oven.
When the paste is done remove the rice;
it can be soaked and used for boiling,
Or i may be kept on hand to bake in
pastry. L simply serves to prevent the
form OF pastry from rising and getting
out OF shape as it would if it were not
filed. Apple jelly is sometimes used
70 fill the pie. and when the crust is
baked It's contents are scraped out, leav-
ing perhaps a quarter of an inch of iellv
in the bottom. The apple jelly is some
times given the exact favor of straw
berries by mixing strawberry juice in
equal proportions with apple Juice
when the Jelly is made. When the crust
is filed with jelly it makes a rather
more elaborate pie, but takes more
time.
In either case. as soon as the crust is
baked dredge n little sugar over it and
NIL itwith perfectlyripe, luscious straw
berries well sweetened. Heap sweet
ened and whipped cream thickly over
it. 1t may also be covered with a mer-
ingue made of the whites of three eggs
beaten to stiff froth, four tablespoon
fuls of sugar and the juice of half a
small lemon. Cover the berries careful
" with the meringue. which is nom
of heat. and isolate the pie
plate holding the pie from the oven bot
tom by setting it on thick pine board,
and bake the meringue in this way in a
hot oven for 20 minutes. If
the work of isolation has been properly
done the berries will not be heated, but
the meringue will have risen and will
be we'll done and only delicate brown.
Remove the pie to cold plate and let it
become ice cold before serving tn.

There is good deal of nutrition in
apples, especially those of sweet va

cheap. as sweet apples are almost sure
to be when the crop is abundant, they
are good feed for hogs. But they are

While it IS considered bad form fol
a woman to Carr, her skirts while walk
ing, there are condition. and eircum
stances when she must do SO. In ~ me
first place, unless one is woman of lux
ury, with those in her service with moth
ing but her wardrobe to look after, on,
is not excusable for wearing skirts that
in consequence Of their aL-round exag-
gerated length are veritable stree
sweepers. For women who are no.
thus luxuriously conditioned. walking
skirts should be made just to escape
the ground, and then they should be al
lowed to hang free unless the side
walks or crossings are too damp Of
otherwise dirty. when it would, o.
course, be most uncleanly not to lift TIL,
skirts. The way to lift them most eff
fectually and conveniently is TO throw
the extra back fullness of the skirt over
the back of the hand. which should be
closed and placed as a handle at one
slde OF the body. and slightly bend the
forearm forward. The fullness Of the
skirt will be found to remain in place
and will not cause the fatigue to the
hand and wrist that one experiences il
the old way of holding so much weight
OF material in the hand. This is de
cided saving on gloves. since it does not
stretch them or soil them or cause the
hand to become overheated, and skirts
lifted in this way look more graceful
than when they are held in the hand

Better Seven-EfRhtbs.-


Many Of my friends have asked me.
and few strangers had the curiosity
to write and inquire: why is it that
you always speak of your wife as your
better seyen-eighths?" In this brief ar.
tlcle l will endeavor 20 explain. and
use the personal pronoun, that the read
ers will the better understand me. In
Christian fortitude she is as fortress
capable of withstanding any fusillade:
l put rifle pit with many unguarded
gaps In comparison. Her faith is that

occasional sprout that lends hope of

day is never so dark but the bright
light beyond beckons her on as a bea-

continuous companionship Of over %

teur construction. To such a puzzled
devotee of the work table, the veil case.
shown in the accompanying sketch, is
offered for consideration. There can
be no question about its pretty APP
pearance, and any woman who has had
her good veilings spoiled with knocking
about in her drawers, to catch ineyita-
bly, upon every glove, button or hook,
will decide that such a separate recep-
tacle for them would be of the utmost
service.
For present that is TO be as hand
some as possible, the veil case should
be developed in white satin, with pow
behring's of blue forget-me-nots, a lin
ing of pale blue silk, and a cord and
ribbons in a similar shade. To make
the shape, the ubiquitous mili-board
must be again called into requisition,
and two palette shapes cut from it;
the size may be decided at the work
er's pleasure, but generally useful meas
urements would be from IA to 8
inches in length, and about six inches
across. This gives the veil comforta-
bic space, if it is folded carefully.
Cut two pieces of the white satin,
and two of the blue silk, the same shape
as the palette, only rather larger, TO al
low for turnings. Then proceed to
stretch piece of satin and piece OF
silk on either side of a cardboard por-
ton, taking care that there are no
wrinkles; turn the edges of the ma
terials inward. and stitch firmly to-
gether round the edge OF the palette.
The remaining piece of satin must be
daintily embroidered with single flow
ers and the word Wells" in forget
me-nots or other flowers, before ii is
also stretched upon the remaining
shape.
Little now remains TO be done save
to neatly sew round the blue-silk cord
which will conceal the stitches. to make
two holes for the connecting ribbon
BOWS, and buttonhole them nicely;
while the single large bow which ties
the case when in use, must have been
sewn in under the cord. Countless nrat-

To Wash SIX Underwear.

Great care should Be taken when
washing silk underwear. Soap never
should be rubbed directly upon the
garment Strong soap suds made of
warm water and white soap viii be
found best. Squeeze the garment in
this water, and then. If the garment is
very much soiled, pass it through an.
other warm suds aud then rinse In very
lukewarm water. Press between the
hands to get out the water. Shake
well, and pull into shape, and when
the garment is nearly dry press it on
The wrong side with moderately hot
iron.
