The following from the Scientific
American is worth remembering: 'At
the first indication of dipbtheria in the
throat of the child, make the room close,
then take tin cup and pour into it an
equal quantity OF tar and turpentine !;
then hold the cup over fire so as to fill
the room with fumes. The patient, on
inhaling the fumes, will spit out the
mem mbraneOus matters and diphtheria
will pass off. The fumes OF tar and tnr-
pentine loosen the throat and thus j.
ford relief that has baffled the skill Of
physjciaDs."

Delicious Cordials.

The most delicious cordials are dis
titled from sugar loaf pineapples and
also from peaches. The New York Trib-
une gives these directions for making
them:
Peel and cut the pineapples in small
pieces or chop the cores left after max
ing preserves. Put the fruit, with its
juice, in a porcelain lined kettle and
add enough warm water to fill the
spaces between the pieces. Let the pine
apple simmer until it Is thoroughly
cooked, then strain it, pressing out all
the juice from the pulp. Allow about
half pound of sugar to a pint of the
liquid. Let the strip thus formed boil
for ten minutes, then add an equal
quantity of the best cooking brandy.
Bottle the cordial and keep it six months
before using it.
Make peach cordials in the same way,
using fine White Heath peaches and
adding one-quarter of the blanched ker-
nels, cut into thin strips. Serve these
cordials in the tiny glasses that come
for the purpose with ice cream and deli
cate cakes or waters.

Discussion on Grammar Between q News
paper and q Citizen.


The Chicago Inter Ocean becomes
both sarcastic and indignant when any
one questions the purity of its diction.
So when reader named Campbell ven
tured to criticise expressions used by its
society editor the captions one found
that he had caught Tartar. This is the
way The Inter Ocean puts it:
Inclosed with the following letter,
received few days ago, were two clip
pings from the society columns of The
Inter Ocean:
Here are three barbarisms that caught my
eye in this mornings issue of your paper
There is no such word as "gowned''-it is
NEARLY a Cockney yalgarism that had its
origin in London, England-"Swellest' is Of
the same sort-and same Origin-No American
having any regard for purity of language can
use such slang-As ell these words appear in
so called 'sOciety items" take it your Society
editor is male or female dude and needs a
lesson in language-The harm done by the use
Of such wor'is in your paper is very great as
thousands of children read it and absorb its
words-DO stop this COcliney vulgarity-
JAMES CAMPBELL
There is no doubt you mean we'll,
Jim, but term in night school would
be beneficial even to you before you be-
gin to give lessons in English. To begin
with, you would be taught there that
our grandfather, Lindley Murray, al
ways told Us to use periods. You ought
to have known Lindley, Jim. Pe was
distinguished gramInarian, you
know, or perhaps you don't know.
And then, Jim, there was Ternyson.
He said of heroine in one Of his poems
that she was "gowned III pure hite. I"
So you see Lord Tennyson found the
word "gowned" to be useful long be-
fore you learned TO walk steady on your
hind feet or to eat with your front
hoofs Webster says "gowned" means
"dressed in gown; clad. "
You say that these barharians caught
your eye" and you fail to mention
which eye they caught. How is the
other eye?
You are right when you say that our
society editor is either male or a fe-
male. Do you belong to one of these
sexes? We suspect not When you write
again, spell merely" as it should be.
The way you spelled it is like spelling
your name "camel" instead of Camp
bell. F" See that hump?
We don't like to offend your sensitive
ear, or the other one either, jim. Buy

er. Start right, and yorr sensitive ear
may outgrow its affection.

dispute There are few American sports
which offer the pleasure and excitement
of tennis without personal danger and
which can be enjoyed by both sexes
equally, anG tennis has been justly pop
ular for this reason, says contributor
to The Puritan, who adds: The differ
ence in skill between men and women
who play tennis we'll is great but is
probably due more to the handicap of
dress than physical shortening, al
though both factors must be taken into
account. The fin de steele American wo-
man might compete with men on an
equal footing if complete dress reform
in spcrt were brought about.

Capotes take rather the beret shape,
made of soft, pliable straw, with flow
ers, feather tips, rosettes of tulle, etc.
White wells are esteemed most dressy.
Those of tulle with black spots are the
most becoming. II is rumored that the
bonnet is fast superseding the hat
among married women, whether young
or middle aged. Toques and bonnets in
consequence are assuming increased i'm
portance. Picturesque hats with low

which are again to the fore. Indeed
their popularity is noticeable feature

wide pelerines, in fact-of light silk
richly embroidered or spangled lace,
also plated tulle. Imported ones, direct
from Paris, made in black chiffon, COM
bined with silk or gauze, the pattern
outlined with cord, are very effective
Some of them take the form of a bolero
with wing sleeves. Others are merely
the short fashionable cape. 1t is pre-
dicted that this summer will see the
last of capes and that in the autumn
the shape Of visite-mantlet will reap
pear. ALICE VARNUM.
