here carries 80 per cent OF pure copper.
. When pig copper is wanted the MATES
are roasted again for the purpose Of
getting rid OF more of the sulphur they
contain and are then melted again.
This process is continued until pigs of
nearly pure copper are produced.

was reason in it:
For in the park across the way, as plain

Beside the gateway growing was a tall
horse-chestnut tree.
And dainty dog-wood blossoms from the
woods we often bring.
And there's the yellow cow-slip that we
gather in the spring;
We've hunted for the fox-glove and the
timid hare-bell blue,
And captured the spiky cat-tails and the
pussy-willow, too.

Some of the new taffeta silk skirts
are made without lining. The skirt has
three narrow frillS at the hem ana
two more put on to simulate a deeply
pointed overdress, but ip this case the
unlined skirt is worn over a very elab-
crate silk petticoat, fitted and made
very much after the fashion of dress

A very bewildering sight indeed was
a recent private exhibit of summer cos
tunes, with foulard in every possible
guise and made up in every concelvaDle
style. Lace and lace insertion are used
to give certain effectiveness to these
inexpensive silks.
Among the French hats in shepherd
ess STYLE a model trimmed with large
black ostrich plumes was recently
shown. Very full rosettes of black
tulle and a buckle of glittering French
brilliants We're introduced on the front.
The brim was lined entirely with black
tulle. gagged at the edge. The tulle-
lined hat brims in black. white or col
ors are more becoming than the hard,
unrefeved edges that generally come in
contact with the face.
1t would be hard to find a more beau
tiful gown in the summer display than
one for full-dress evening wear, Of
white crepe de chine, with guimpe and
sleeves of white lace, trimmings for the
skirt and bodice-edgings of ruchings
of white mousseline de sole. If the fig
ure is slender, an added sash of the
mousseline may be carried twice around
the waist, and knotted on the left side.
Chiffon skirts we'll flounced and
ruched, or those of India silk trimmed
with insertions of lace and accordion
plated, and worn with tunics or pol
onaises of guipure lace, comprise some
of the handsomest gowns designed for
the coming season. More youthful
dresses are made of net or white point

with graceful braid-like designs Of mar
row white satin ribbon that has q
heavy draw-string on one edge, so that

HOTEL KITCHENS.
MYSTERIES OF TURNING OUT A
BILL OF FARE.
Buying the Enormous Food Supply
and Cooking It According to
a Thousand Recipes.

Hotel kitchens are deep mystery 10
most people who glance over the long
menu three times a day and wonder
where all the dishes come from, and
how they are prepared so that they can
be had at moments notice. They do
not consider that cooking for a houseful
OF guests requires an army of workers
below stairs, a minute system and
studied generalship on the part of the
managers, who daily produce enough
cooked food to feed the popula ton of a
fair-sized town.
There are two great men in the lower
section of the big modern hotel. One
of them is the steward and the other is
the chef. The first supplies the raw
provender, and the other gives it the
artistic treatment which later soothes
the appetite Of the guest into dreamy
satisfaction.
The steward is a keen business man
who watches the markets as closely as
professional stock Spectator At
night he makes list of what he is to
buy the next morning. The list would
read like bit of fiction to the average
housewife 1t is the regular thing for
the steward of one of the new Fifth
avenue hotels to buy each morning
twenty-five different kinds of fresh fish,
fifteen sorts of shell fish, ten of smoked
and salt fish, twenty-five varieties Of
meats, and the same number Of butch
er's miscellanies, such as sweetbreads
calf's head, ETC.; fifteen varieties of
game, thirty -five of vegetables. a dozen
of fruit and like number of cheeses.
A number of smaller items are also
bought each day, such as olives, jellies,
syrups, milk and eggs. There are
regular days for the purchase of vast
quantities of groceries, but these give
the steward comparatively little trou-
BILE. as they require no skirmishing
about to secure. An order is sent by
telephone or messenger to the whole
saler, and the goods are delivered
Great care is taken in the purchase of
milk, butter and eggs. Four of the
large fashionable hotels pay a contract
price of 81 pound the year round for
their butter and this item alone costs
each of them in the neighborhood of
$4,000 a year. including the cooking
butter.
None of the milk supplied to these
hotels is of the SKINNED variety 1t is
bought by contract from large dealers,
and from each can is taken enough to,
fill small glass jar. which isAat once
placed in a refrigerator at 40 degrees
and kept locked up for twenty four
hours At the expiration of that time
it is tested by an expert to discover the
exact proportion of cream and milk.
The season of the year has much to do
with these proportions, which for the

is a semi wreath of pale pink tea-roses
and shaded foliage. A Felix hat is a
mass of white SNOWFALL blossoms, in
termixed with green and white clematis
blossoms and leaves.
Some of the new bathing -suits are
made of clinging China silk. There are
also bathing dresses of French bunting,
with yokes of coarse net or lace, and
sleeve, belt and collar bands of the
goods, covered with rows of cream
colored braid, and suits of black, blue,
or pure white albatross. The last
named woods shed water better than
mohair, but there are yet to be found
any fabrics better suited for the surf
than either English serge or Jersey
cloth.
| Some of the stylish toQues, English
walking hats and shepherdess shapes
are trimmed with outstanding loops and
pointed ends of wired cream guipure
| lace, embroidered with a tiny line of
black straw. This straw edging is a
decided novelty on lace, and in black
and colors forms a conspicuous feature
/ in millinery.
| All the shades of blue are favored
| this season. Lobelia, morning glory
| fax, lavender iris and forget me not
are new choice blues in cloth, light
summer wool, silk, velvet, flowers and
tulle.
The present craze for gauzy, trans
parent materials worn over foundations
Of firmer weave, spreads even to tea
gowns, and many of the clinging prin-
cesse underdresses have semi loose
overdress fronts and fitted backs Cd
light textiles More q able and equal
| ly attractive are tea-gowns Of plain OF
fancy nuns yelling SONS of the hand
soonest being formed Of pure white
yelling, with cascades on the bodice
portion and founces on the skirt.
One of the most becoming Of the
many stylish pique suits shown this
season is model from a well-known
English house. 1t is formed of finely
ribbed pique Of a pale corn-yellow tint
trimmed on jacket and skirt with mar
row black velvet ribbon and black vel
vet buttons. The jacket, with it's vel
vet trimmed revers, opens over a plait-
ed shirt waist of white taffeta silk
which is fastened with tiny gold studs
trimmed with onyx.
|
Black and white effects in fashiona-
bic headwear are in evidence this sea-
son, and almost without exception, the
hats and bonnets showing this delicate
bination prove becoming. Black
and white ostrich plumes are united on
white chip, Leghorn, or coarse fancy
straw hats with or without an addi-
| tional trimming of black velvet ribbon
loops or Choux
| A valuable fabric is English long
cloth, which is fine and semi-transpar-
ent. 1t Is a far better choice for GER
tain uses than either India linen or Vic
toria lawn because it does not shrink
in washing.
New golf jackets are being made OF
brilliant green box-cloth, with revers
and turned-down collar and cuffs, faced
with vivid scarlet vicuna.
