RovaI Batbinr eovD.

Queen Victoria's granddaughter, the
13-year-old daughter Of Princess Henry
of Battenberg, is wearing a new bath
ing tunic both smart and comfortable
and suitable for maidens from IS to IL
years old.
The sleeves are trimmed to match the
tunic and the seams are bound. A
pretty belt of double red serge, trimmed
with braid, confines the waist.
The tunic is made with a seamless
back, with fronts made to meet the
vest, which is sewed to the left side
and made to button under the revers on
the right.
The nautical vest and collar are
stitched together on the right side, and
the seams are made neat with binding,
which also trims the left edge and the
neck of the vest.
There is no lining, the seams being
double and the lower edge stitched,
then trimmed with scarlet braid. The
bathing drawers are plain, but banded
with braid near the knee.
Navy serge, trimmed with white or
red, is the best material to employ A
strong strip should be placed as foun-
dalton for the buttonholes and the
same laid under the vest where the
buttons are sewed.

Costume. of a Newport BelIe.

Some unusually charming afternoon
gowns are seen this season at the
summer resorts. A very pretty New
port toilet for afternoon wear was in
embroidered gray silk muslin, the skirt
entirely plisse over series of gray and
blue muslin understands; at the hem an
embroidered band of gray and blue en-
broidery, with raised blue chenille flow
ers at intervals, made a pretty finish.
The bodice, simply pouched over the
silver waistband; showed trimming Of
soft embroidery, chenille fringe to
match being arranged down the line of
fastening in front, while sleeves to
just below the elbow disclosed under
sleeves of fine cream embroidered lisse
to the wrists
Two or three attractive coats in soft
pale gray and fawn and even white
cloth, with straight backs, three
quarter length, were worn by the same
belle. One of them had bright red vel
vet collar and square. turn back cuffs of
the same, with gold buttons in a dou-
BILE line of about six on either side of
the fastening in front. These coats are
all the rage.

nARIS, Aug. 1.-THE exhibition of
gowns IN the Salon des Lurnieres
at the exposition has been a. boon
to women visitors, both unprofessional
ana of the noble army of dressmakers-
While exceedingly affable to ladies of
known means, the attendants in the
shops of the great couturieres are not
very obliging in showing models At
the exposition the gowns are of the
handsomest and newest mode and are
shown to the best advantage Doucet.
Worth, Laferriere, Lebouvier and
Raudnitz are all well represented. 1t is
the general opinion that Worth carries
off the laurels, as his collection of
gowns is such as combines originality
without achieving bizarre effect.
One of the most admired of Worth's
exposition costumes is a robe of foulard
blue silk spotted with white The skirt
is gathered in the rear and trimmed
over the hips with straps of plain blue
silk, edged with cord of white satin
The skirt is bordered with cut out flow
ers over white satin. The bodice is
trimmed with blue straps edged with
white satin. A eirdIe of white lace I'm
der the straps gives the waist the odd
effect of a bolero pointed in the front
over a gilet of white satin.
A handsome gown of the high necked
reception sort is made of duh. flexible
satin embroidered with violets. A
flounce embroidered with outline flow
ers in rose and mauve adorns the skirt,
the upper and lower borders being en-
circled with embroidered galIoons. The
effect of the f1ounce embroidery is very
rich and handsome, being a striking inn
ftation of ancient embroidery. The bod
ice has a galloon bordered bolero worn
over a draped gilet of lace and white
satin. With this costume the model
wears q short cloak of abbess cloth,
with a cascade of plated white NOUS
seine de sole CO ming down the front of
the cloak The toque of pale green is
ornamented with graceful blue flow
ers.
For the widow and the orphan a suit
able costume a la Worth is typified in
a garment of jet and chenille crossed
black mousseRine de sole made over a
foundation of white silk. The bodice
is a plain blouse affair with a high
pointed cOll<lr and sleeves of black
mousseline ending at the elbow in
frin over All undersleeve of black lace.
The skirt is cut with the effect of a
pointed tunic over ruff1es of black
mousseliH.e de sole. The points of the
tunic are edged with a fringe falling
over a full f1ounce of the mousseline.
Worth has always had penchant for
long, sweeping draperies, and it is
natural that he should be an earnest
advocate of the princess robe and the
empire type OF garment. An elegant re-
ception toilet of the empire sort is
shown in his display at the exposition.
1t is of pliable satin in pastel blue, in
crusted with velvet flowers, cut in the
form of a redingote over an underrobe
of gray blue mousseline de sole trim
med below with a fiounce of fine white
lace The corsage is supplied with a
very deep collar of lace and insertion,
cascade of lace falling from under
the collar half way the length of the
redingote. The collar and short yoke
are of pearl embroidered lace.

the dainty summer gowns of the ladies
and the somber black garments of the
civilians.

Jugged Pigeons.

Take from four to six pigeons, ac-
cording to the quantity required; pick,
draw, wash and wipe them dry; boil
their nvers for about two minutes
just enough to make them firm; put
them into mortar or basin and bruise
them smooth; add two yolks of hard
boiled eggs, the grated rind of a lemon,
half a teaspoonful of chopped parsley,
an equal weight of the livers in a very
finely minced beef suet, also in fine
bread crumbs, with a havoring of pep
per, salt and nutmeg; add some bits of
butter and bind all together with a
raw egg. mixing the ingredients thor
oughly.
Stuff the pigeons with this seasoning,
sew up the vents and truss the birds
neatly; dip the pigeons into warm wa
ter, sprinkle them with pepper and
salt, arrange in a stewing jar, with a
held of celery cut into slices, four or
five cloves, glass of white wine and a
bouquet garni. Cover the jar closely,
set the jar in a saucepan of boiling wa
ter to come three parts up the jar; let
the water boil for three hours; then
strain of the gravy into a small sauce
pan, thicken it with butter and -four;
boil till of the right consistency. Then
dish the pigeons. pour the gravy over
them and garnish with potato straws
and sliced lemons.

Points ON Cloth Gowns.

The tints in fashionable cloth gowns
grow lighter and lighter; ice color, the
faintest peach, a green which can hard
ly be distinguished from blue, are the
most fashionable, and the cloth itself
is of the very lightest make.
In lieu of the perpendicular tucks on
the hips some of these have horizontal
folds below the waist, which give a
pannierlike aspect, and form part of
the girdle, to which they are apparent
ly attached by clasps of silver, the bod
ice opening over a vest
Every fashionable dress now entails
a great amount of work, but materials
can be had tucked and corded, which
saves great deal of labor.
Boleros accompanying cloth dresses
are sometimes all guipure or have lace
insertions and very often show dag
onal insertions of lace.

HOW TO CARE FOR CUT FLOWERS
UXURIANT as are cut flowers III !

UXURIANT as are cut flowers in
the summer in most neighbor-
- hoods. very few persons know how
to get the most benefit from them.
The flowers. beautiful as they are at
first, seldom last any time, and the
method of their arrangement and To-
cation in the house is such as does not
add anything to the decorative scheme.
Those who have handsome gardens
very often like to send floral gifts to
their less fortunate friends. Flowers
for this purpose should be clipped from
the stems the day they are to be sent
away and should be Immediately placed
In water. The gatherer should not ham
die the flowers any more than is abso-
lutely necessary. When they are snip
ped from the main stalk of the plant,
they should be at once dropped into
shallow pan or basket, and when that
is filled should be carried to a cool,
dark room, sorted and placed in water.
4 little salt or ammonia added to the
water in which the stems are immersed
viii help to preserve their freshness.
Before placing the flowers in the water
the stems should be cut diagonaIly, to
remove the end of the bark, which
even in a short time after cutting
from the stalk is coated over with a
thick, gummy substance, which pre-
vents the nDerS from drinking up the
water When the flowers look espe-
cially withered, they should be i'm
mersed almost to the head in water and
allowed to remain until the leaves show
signs of recovering or prove by their
condition that they are hopelessly dried
up Flowers having f1brous or woody
stems are best preserved by making a
slit of two inches in the lower part of
the stem or by peeling off the skin so
that a larger surface of the stem may
be exposed to the water.
When the flowers are to be arranged
in a. shallow bowl, wire arrangement
may be purchased from the florist for
their support. or a wire frame to be TT
ted to the bowl may be made at home.
When the bowl is very large one and
is to be filled to the top with the flow
ers, small pots may be set in the bowl
and filed with water.
Wild flowers are very hard to pre-
serve They last longest when taken
up with their roots Plants which are
exceptionally hard to keep may be re-
tanned in better condition by cutting
notches in the lower part of the stems,
at the internodes if they are jointed.
In sending flowers away the use of
oiled and corrugated paper is best The
oiled paper excludes air. and the CORFU
gated paper wrapping the blossoms
preserves them from crushing. A bit of
damp moss placed at the stem of the
flower and another piece at the head

SERvIcEABLE GOWNS.

Transformation dresses is a name
which we apply to gowns that in their
