How to Pack a Trunk.

Lay aside your sandals, night-dress,
toilet articles, medicine and shoe dress
ing for your travelling bag. 1t is wise
to take an umbrella in the hand. Some
strap the sunshade to this, but in case
of shower you would not know what
to do with the sunshade, so it is best
to put the latter into the trunk. Those
with adjustable handles are best for
packing.
Pack in layers, having everything as
fiat as possible. This economies
room. All delicate apparel should be
wrapped separately in tissue paper or
towels, and sleeves of fine gowns should
be stuffed out with newspapers, also
the crowns of hats aud bonnets, after
which they may be pinned That pins)
to the bottom or sides of hat boxes to
keep them from shaking about.
Aigrettes and other high adornments
may be detached, then fastened on af-
terward. Fold the front breadth Of
skirt in its crease, then itKii'not look
crumpled. j fs not of great impor-
tance II the other breadths are creased.
They soon shake out.
Never double over the bottom of
skirt if it is longer than the trunk.
Double from the top instead, where
there is no stiffening to hold creases.
Fold the waists inside out as smoothly
as possible and stuff out the loops of
large bows with newspapers.
Hose, undergarments, ETC., may be
saved out to tuck into corners and
spaces to keep the layers from jarring.
The main point is to keep a smooth
surface in packing, placing layer upon
layer, and when bulky articles are put
in building around them until you
have a smooth surface again. Never
crowd breakable articles in the corn
ers or sides, rather wrap them in news
papers and place among the clothing.
Some may advise you to carry bot
ties in your trunk. Don't do it, un-
less, of course, they are done up
chemist fashion. We have carried
shoe dressing and preserves among
clothing several times, but the last
time it was not success, and so we
advise You to take such articles by
hand, or pack by themselves and send
by express. New York Ledger.

Escalloped Carrots.

At this season of the year, when one
longs for something to tempt the ap-
petite, try dish of escalloped carrots,
which will be found at once nutritious
aud pslatable. Take six small, fine
grained carrots and two small white
onions. Boil. together, in just water
enough to keep from burning, Do
not scrape them and do not cover them
while cooking. When the onions are
tender remove them, and when the
carrots are done, peel and slice them.
Put in baking dish layer of carrots,
sprinkle with salt and pepper and dots
of butter, and sprinkle very lightly
with bread crumbs mot enough to
cover the carrots, just a sprinklel; then
more carrots, etc, till dish is full.
Beat an egg in cup of fresh milk,
salt it slightly and pour over the car
rots; spread layer of bread crumbs
on top, dot with bits of butter and
bake. Serve in the dish in which it
was baked, Any one who likes car.
rots will find this delicious, and it is a
good dish on which to learn to like
them. Detroit Free Press.

Bangles and Bracelets.

Old fads, like poor relations and
bad pennies, are always bound to turn
up sooner or later.
With the fashion of wearing two
buttoned gloves for almost every occa-
sion, there has come the revival of the
bracelet in general and of the bangle
in particular. The combination of
short gloves and bracelets is not at all
a pretty one. Weagree with the clever
woman who wrote in question
album" that her idea of the vulgar was
"short gloves and wrists fat and red,
or bony and blue, with bracelets two
inches wide" A gap between the
sleeve and the glove at the wrist is
never becoming, nor is it made so by
filling it with bracelet, especially the
vulgar, fiat gold bracelets in vogue a
dozen years ago, and now to be re-
vived.
And the banglesl What woes are
in store for us nowl The old girl has
resurrected her bygone appendages
aud the new girl is on the hunt for
brand new ones. Coins of all sorts
will be worn, from the quarter real of
Guatemala-famed as the smallest
coin in the world-to Columbia half
dollars. By their side will jingle
monogram coins, ruby hearts, gold
pigs, agate mice, rhinestone balls, and
every and any sort of bangle that
feminine ingenuity can devise. Bangle
begging will be a feature of the sea-
son, and the man who can skillfully
elude these requests is capable of
making his escape from church fair
with his car fare in his pocket.

A Novelty in Dinner Parties.

A novelty in dinner parties is
described by the Paris correspondent
of Harper's Bazaar: ''It was little
model of the dinner table placed in
the hall. All around it were, little
compartments, into each of which was
slipped card containing the name of
the guest. One simply glanced at
this convenient little plan on arriving
and found her place without any of
that confusion on entering the dining
room that is sometimes so maddening.
Ones own name always seems the
last"

HOusehOld Hints.

Sharpen all kinds of fish sauce With
lemon juice.
A dash of black pepper greatly i'm.
proves vanilla ice cream.
When using vanilla for favoring
add half a teaspoon of peach extract.
Put sugar in water used for basting
meats of all kinds; it adds a flavor,
especially to veal.
Add a cup of good date vinegar to
the water in which you boil fish, es-
pecially if it is salt fish.
When baking fish place on the top
thin slices of salt pork; it tastes the
fish and improves the flavor.
Chocolate is greatly improved by
adding teaspoonful of strong coffee
just before serving; a teaspoon of
sherry also helps.
Ifa baby has a cold in the chest,
rub well with camphorated oil, cover
with soft flannel clothes soaked in
olive oil, and protect the clothing
with another layer of flannel.
To save time and strength in the
weekly ironing, remember that dish
towels and common towels can be
ironed quite we'll enough and in half
the time if folded together once.
1t is reported that in some of the
industrial schools classes in home up.
holstery are formed, where young
women may learn the rudiments OF
this useful art, and then go out by
the day to carry on the work.
In cleaning mating use a weak salt
water solution, and always rub
fengthwise with the grain, If there
are grease spots, take boiling soap
suds and the scrubbing brush, then
rinse carefully with the salt water,
and rub dry.
The ragged edges of hole should
not be trimmed for a darn, but weave
the stitches over and under. so as to
hold down each torn thread. Always
darn with the right side of the work
upward, so as to see that the threads
are held down.
Great care should be taken in warm
weather that the milkman or the cook
do not put boracic acid in the milk that
is used by children or even grown-up
people 1t is well-known preserva-
tive, but unless used very sparingly
it is highly injurious to health.
All clothes worn out of doors should
be carefully brushed before being put
away, and black materials are i'm
proved by being occasionally sponged
with weak solution of ammonia in
water. Face wells also after being
worn some time are better for this
treatment.

Cost of Running Great Universities.
The cost of running a great univer

The cost of running great univer-
sity these days counts up into hun
dreds of thousands of dollars every
year. The money laid out annually
by Harvard, Pennsylvania, Yale, Cor

fair-sized endowment 1t costs over
100000 a year to run Harvard
University, and while its endowment
is about 80, 200, 900, it is constantly
pressed for more. The endowment of
Yale University increased from $273,-
900 in 1887 to "a, $50, 900 in 1897, and
yet Yale considers itself poor.
Columbia University, in New York
City, has funds amounting to Sc, ,0O0,-

of its departments by lack of money.
The need of money at the University
of Pennsylvania is known to be con-

why scotch Pre.erve. Are-superior.

According to Miss Murdock, teach
er of cookery, the superiority of
Scottish preserves does not lie in their
preparation, which is the same as that
of other countries, but in the fruits
themselves. Instead of using the
large and handsome fruit which
American housewives prefer, the thrift
ty Scotch manufacturers endeavor, as
far as possible, to get the wild and
hardy variety. These preserve their
character longer and develop addi-
tional flavor in the cooking. New
