A French cook gives the following VAL
uabie hints to the amateur pastry cook:
I'm this special branch of cookery, details,
not of ingredients but OF outward circum-
stances, are of the greatest Importance in
helping 10 bring about good result. First,
pastry should be prepared in cool place;
when the temperature is low, care Is not
so imperative, but in summer, In nine cases
out of ten. failure is due to great heat.
Then the -four should always be dried and
sifted. and the butter well pressed. to free
1t from all surplus moisture; to this end
II is advisable in hot weather to wash the
butter In fresh water over night roll Il
tightly In a clean. dry muslin. beat it gent
ly with wooden roller. and place II on
marble slab TIL wanted. When lard Is
used ii must be absolutely fresh and
worked in cool room. Further. the knife
or cutter must be sharp. and when the pas
try Is brushed over with egg or water, as
the case may be. this should not be dropped
on any other part except on that on which
II Is required. for such proceeding would
prove detrimental to the result. Lastly,
the oven should be kept well closed to in
sure a perfectly even heat otherwise the
pastry will fall in on the side where the
heat is not so great, and it is not until
the pastry has risen that n sheet of paper
should be spread over the top; then the
ventllator may be opened to let out the
moisture and to completely dry the con-
tents. \ good way of proving the oven is
this: Lay sheet OF paper inside: II Il
turns yellow quickly, the degree is at
tained for pun pastry, and that which Is
made with butter and with yeast Other
Kinds or dough. etc. succeed better when
the heat of the oven colors the paper
more slowly"

10 culture and We have 1t on the authority
OF German physician that IL Is beyond
dispute that during half an ordinary hu-
man life the nose is capable OF receiving
more noble form. The mental training Of
an individual has a great deal TO do with
shaping the nose.
nose thick and fat is an unfavorabie
feature with men as well as women, usr-
ally slgnifying that the character is pre-
dominated by material Instincts. while a
turned-up nose with wide nostriis, betok-
ems vain disposition.
The small. fiat nose found among women
and called the soubrette nose, when occur
ring with an otherwise agreeable cast OF
countenance. Indicates a gracious and
cheerful naiyete. combined with consider
able curiosity. Such a nose is seldom
found among men. and when man is UNI
fortunate enough to possess Il he Is char
aeterized by weak and deficient sagacity
Especially wide nostriis are signs Of
courage. strength and PRIDE small nostrils
OF weakness and timidity. Noses large in
every respect are usually found among
men. and when woman possesses n large
nose Il indicates she is masculine in char
acter.

Paris Letter.


At a recent dinner l saw beautiful
gown of white satin applied all over with
lace flowers and leaves cut from web lace
and edged about with the finest gold
thread or cord. These flowers were about
the size of child's palm and were scat
tered at wide intervals over the skirt and
bodice care being taken TO apply some of
the flowers over the seams To show that
the work was by hand, which is the great
est feature now of expensive gowns. This
beautiful toilet was frightened by intense
copper green velvet and pale bluette vel
vet. almost lavender. the two colors being
beautifully harmonious. The skirt was
demi train and was made perfectly plain.
excepting for the lace flower applications.
The bodice, cut straight across from
under the arms, had the front applied
with lace flowers. and cascades of rich
lace fell down from each side several
inches below the belt. The sleeves were
crushed puffs of satin, with falls of lace
over them, and the ceinture was of the
two colors of velvet laid in close folds and
fastened at one side of the front in an up
and down bow. On one side OF the decol-
letage was a rosette of the two velvets
crushed together.

In the Nursery.

The three prime essentials IN the nur-
sery are fresh air. good food and pure
water. says the Medical and Surgical
Journal.
An infants thirst is not quenched by
milk 1t needs clean water to drink with
regularity.
Always hold baby in your arms when
feeding 1t. In about the same position as
II nursing 1t.
Rubber tubes, complicated nipples and
nursing bottles are dangerous and should
never be used.
Regular habits, proper food and long
hours of sleep are necessary conditions TO
q healthy infant.
Have rule for feeding the baby and do
not vary from it. Without regularity the
mother becomes a slave
Light and loose clothing and frequent
bathing or cool sponging are necessities
for the infant In hot weather.
Plain. boiled water, given between feed
inGs will often aid the digestion and sat-
isfy the child when restless.
Never put a bottle nipple into your
mouth and then into the baby's mouth.
This Will often prove dangerous.
Feeding at night after the third month
is both inconvenient and unnecessary.
Sleep at night is better than food.
An infant Is creature OF habit and us
ually responds TO the wish of the mother,
II the mother has order In her will
More infants lives are taken by over
feeding than by starvation. Never liken
an Infants digestion or diet to your own.
DO not feed the baby because IL cries.
This may be due to pain and Ii is hurt
full to MI an infants stomach at such a
time.
Vomiting and diarrnoea are Indications
that the child is either sick or approach
inn sickness and probably needs a physi-
clan.
Cholera infantum would be Of rare oc-
curence II proper attention was always
given TO the quality and quantity of the
food.
nursing mother who worries or who
Is exhausted or who INDUCES in excite
ment may become source OF danger to
her infant.
Cleanliness as applied to the body. the
mouth. the food the vessels, the cloth
ing, the furniture. the floor. The carpets
the beds and the atmosphere should be
strictly observed.

ightful and ii is true. but the statement
must be qualified. The visitor CARRIED in
severe tailor-made costume shows in
every line OF her dress that she is lack
ing in appreciation of the niceties of life:
few jeweled pins, a simple yet elegant
hat In addition, and VOLTA, she would
have expressed to her hostess that, though
the exigencies of the moment compelled
severity of attire she desired to honor
her by these slight etceteras.
The stress Of life under which we live
has probably dealt the. death blow TO the
visiting dress of ancient tradition: When
half dozen things have to be got into
one afternoon, costume for calling only
would be an utter impossibility. We must
cut our coat according to our cloth. and
wear what Is "conyenabie'' for every
emergency. 1t Is almost mot qufte) SUI
perfiuous to suppose one would not choose
TO make an entrance on the "at home"
stage in a waterproof or heavy fur
lined cloak or the useful. warm jacket
dear to the country maid. but there are
offenders ready and willing 10 commit
these atrocities. No. il a heavy wrap is
Il necessity, leave 1t in the hall. but the
complete costume, en- suite. is by choice
the most desirable. From all this ii would
seem that the visiting dress requires tact;
above all. 1t should sound the note of In
dividuality; 1t must express personality
If women would but mark learn and d.
gest that. 1t is the foundation stone on
which the verdict of being We'll dressed
or badly dressed depends.
In regard TO material a face CLOTH fine
serge. cashmere. any or the soft woolens
now in vogue. or Irish poplin. are all
suitable for this special department of
dress, the make should admit of a pretty
vest, soft friIlsng AZ the throat, and a
rich ceinture. Taking of belts the fiat
has gone forth that the greatest novelty
We cam hope to compass just now Is a
collar band and waistband 10 match OF
velvet, plain, or embroidered passed
through slides of paste or Jewels: the
neck band is underneath high Medici
collar Capes for visiting are almost en-
tirely reiegated TO elderly ladies. and
none too soon; granted. that they are
useful. but under their voiuminous folds
the grace of a perfectly appointed cos
tune and trim figure is lost
