A Rich Cake.

Beat three-quarters of a pound of butter
with a wooden spoon until it is soft and
creamy, then add an equal weight of cas-
tor sugar and beat the ingredients for ten
minutes. Stir IN, one at time, the yolks

with the butter and sugar add a quarter Of
a pound of currants, a quarter OF
a pound of glace cherries cut into pieces,
half pound of raisins (stoned and cut into
halves, a quarter of a pound of sweet al

three ounces of mixed peel cut up and a
saltspOonful of mixed spice.
Add pinch Of salt to the whites of the
eggs and whisk them to a very stiff froth

Fashions I'm Mourning.

Many widows, finding Grape wells and
bonnets too heavy, replace them with black
silk grenadne. but the crowns of the Grape
bonnets are unlined and generally display

especially as worn by the young girls.
Toques hats and bonnets worn in the

Jewels have become almost indispensable
for shades. Rubies emeralds crystals
pearls, amber and the topaz are in common
use. These vary in size from those as
large as robins egg to others as tiny
as the head of a pin. They are used with
tact and infinite care and 1t must not be
supposed that the effect produced is that

jewels also form part of the fringe. One
shade of white silk has a fringe of pearls
and emeralds, while the braid that out

This braid also outlines the panels. The

effect. The width of the fringe varies with
the size of the shade, but it must always
repeat the prevailing color, reproduce char

Charming candle shades for glass candle
sticks are made of white silk. the fringe
being a deep one of crystal. The general
effect is altogether charming.
The lamp shade of lace has never been
altogether dethroned. Different colored
silks are put under the lace, which IS
sometimes drawn plain over the color and
sometimes fuled. When it is used lace
edging takes the place of the fringe. The
shapes Of the frames vary. Like bonnet
frames. they change from year to year
New frames can always be had and the lace

reached to within six inches of the ground,
and under it was a second skirt, with two
accordion-pieated ruffies on it. The whole
gown was appliqued with heavy black silk
lace, shaped pieces over the shoulder, over
the front of the bodice, and running from
the hips to the edge Of the skirt Embroid-
cry, insertion, lace, the trimmings of the
summer frocks are worthy of the trousseau
of a princess!
But we need not feel that every frock
needs them to be beautiful, for a white
nainsook just completed is guiltless of any
thing elaborate except band Of embroid-
cry running from neck to hem, going on
about the edge of the skirt and finishing
the collar and sleeves. The beauty of the
dress lies in its tucked sleeves, and the
tuchs beginning at the neck and sioping
down on the waist to form yoke and be-
ginning again at the waist line and sloptng
down the skirt to make yoke on it,
The girdle is indeed boon, for even If
lace, embroidery and accordion plea tiuys
are beautiful the simple summer frocks of
sheer material, which once were so pref
tily finished with a sash, now have a belt
which answers the same purpose and half
of US may during the coming season go
back to Arcadian simplicity and hope that
it may be as becoming as 1t once was.

The Glove of the Day.

From the Louisville Ccurier-Journal.
The glove of dressed kid has had its dav

son. Four-buttoned 1t must be to he unite
correct, for the clasp that has SO long been
popular Is condemned, because, SO the wo-
men say, it reduces the wrist of the glove
to looseness that is far from desirable.
The very latest glove has a small pocket
in the palm to accommodate car fare. It
is quite impossible to make this purse large
enough to hold the shopping list and the
samples with which the ordinary purse ia
filed, but a small Handkerchief NAV find
lodgment there. and the wearer of It NAV

White gloves are easily cleaned. If they,
are of glace kid rub them with a wooden
cloth that has been dampened in benzine.
Next take bread crumbs and rub over the
gloves, repeating the entire operation until
they are quite fresh and new-looking,
White suede gloves require little different
treatment. Dry pipe clay and a brush-an
old tooth brush will answer the purpose
are required. Begin by putting the CLAW on
the article dry; then, wet 1t, and rub thor

the brush in clean water and scour the
glove until the clay has been all washed
away.

The tendency of Dame Fashion to have

them so cunningly resemble each other in
general effect that the contrast Is not no.
uceable, was never more clearly shown than
at the present moment. In one review of
the frocks of our Partisan designers one
reads that everything is princess in effect
and all lines slender in spite of the pleated
skirts In another periodical devoted to the
gentle art of appearing we'll we are told
that boleros, grdles, full vests or fronts
and generally filmy and feminine fulfil

are true but rather bewildering to one who

cially those which are to be much trimmed.
Those gowns which are to-be decorated with
many rows of stitching upon silk are best
made Of the peau de giant, as its wearing
qualities are superior. Silk canvas is very
frequently employed in the making of even
ing dresses 1t has the desirable quality of
looking well as long as any of the material
remains Mousseline ducheSse is a new

charming in corn. reSeda. lilac and brown
Khaki in wool and linen Is beginning a run
which will probably be a popular one as
the material is a strong and therefore use
full one, especially for children's garments
Cloths gauffered and with checks and chal-
lies OF silk-like surface are indicated as the
proper things for spring juvenile gowns.
Pastel colors still are worn. Light
mauves, reed green's and the new shade
called fame pink have been adopted for
general wear, and by spring Will be all the
rage.
Ribbons will be good deal used in trim
ming gowns, as they have been during the
winter. The puckered ones, GAUGES and shot
ribbons, the ribbon with lace upon the
edges, all will certainly be much in demand.
The striped ribbons. too will have their
admirers. those with perpendicular lines
being the most modish.
Hand-Painted Leather
Painted leather introduced on some street
gowns Is found to be trimming of very
good effect. We have had hand-painted
satin and silk and cloth, and now hand
painted leather ornaments, much more
lasting than any woven fabric are sensibly
being introduced. With care the chamois
can be cleaned when soiled ard the paint
ing used to trim another gown when the
cloth has seen its days of usefulness de-
parted.
Cloth gowns, too. are painted but they
are too expensive for ordinary wearers, es-
pecially with the painted skirt fronts which
the fashionable women are fond OF donring
Cut ont patterns in cloth snow no signs
of disappearing-in fact. it IS a season of
elaborateness combined with simplicity
Gray and brown street gowns with cut-out
bands across the skirt and with silk of a
lighter shade underneath. are upon the
models in the shops now displayed for
spring wear.
Coiffeurs are introducing the fashion of
turning the hair straight back from the
face, a style that suits very few women.
LeEhorn Summer Hats.
Leghorn hats are expected to be very

flowers will be much Used, although a great
deal of straw braid is to be utilized
Ftchus and lace scarfs are still n Ia

Orange is a color that seems to be gain
ing in vogue. Where a season or 50 ago
an orange gown was the exception, one
sees much orange, corn color and amber
used with black for matronly gowns with
most charming effect.

part Of the frocks Of some "grown-up'' sis
ter, at whose wardrobe they cast wistful
chances in days Of yore. They are extreme
~ pretty and most graceful. and it is to be
hoped they will have the popularity they
deserve. Their applicability to frocks of
dinerent sorts may be seen in the illustra-
ton.
Two Pretty Models. .
on the right Of therillustration is pink
challie with whit stripes in 1t. It has a
full. round waist, trimmed at intervals with
rows of narrow black, velvet ribbon. This
trimming is repeated on the skirt about the
hips, and thereu are also rows Of velvet
about the hem OF the, skirt. The gIrdle Of
black velvet finishes out the idea begun by
the narrow black velvet ribbon. AS rule
on pink frock the girdle would be of pink
velvet, as broad, black girdle, almost a
short bodice, is suited only to very good
hgures-neither stout nor thin.
The white swiss on the left Of the pic
ture has blue dots embroidered on 1t and is
finished with girdle and crush collar of
paie blue velvet, the shade of the dots. A
bolero of pale blue liberty silk, which ties
IN front, makes a charming finish to one of
the dafnttest summer models which has yet
appeared.
1t will be noticed that neither of these
skirts are pleated or tucked. fortunately
we need not be slaves to tucked, killed or
box-pieated skirts; many of the old models
nave been successfully revived with a lit

worn skirts with f1ounces billowing about
the floor In graceful sweep are going to
quite give them up.
A Pleasing Importation.
An English frock with wide crush gfrdle
which fastens on the side is a recent and
pleasing importation. 1t has side-pleated
skirt and side-pleated waist, SO strictly is
the idea carried out. Both waist and skirt
are of palest gray silk. Over this is an
overdress Of heavy cream-colored lace,
which crosses like latticework, forming
large squares. The girdle Cor broad sash
belt. as it is often called) is of gray velvet.
There have been SO many variations Of
box pleats that they should not grow tire
some; every one is not obliged to wear the
same model One which has just appeared
has a plain panel front, plain box pleat
in the back and four box pleats on each
side, which do not, however, come to the
waist. Those on each side are fitted to
little plain side piece, which is in reality
narrow yoke, and which does away with
any clumsiness about the hips. This gown
Is of tan-colored nuns yelling. with
blouse, also pleated, opening over white
vest, with wide collar of insertion in place
of a bolero, and a girdle of black satin
about two inches wide.

Tawdry JeyveIry.

Nothing is so very much out of place as
to wear cheap, snowy jewelry. Every one
knows from your dress and circumstances
that you are not rich, and that therefore
these brooches and bracelets, &C, cannot
be real 1t is far better to confine yourself
TO one or two unpretertious paste orna-
ments for evening wear. and in the day
time to use only some simple pins that are
pretty, though sham. and these should b.
kept clean and bright For silver there is
nothing better than cut lemon or silver
powder. For stones rub up with newspaper.

Waist, Skirt AID Bodice.

If You wish to acquire distinction in dress
with your separate waists, see to it that
there is some relation in color between the
skirt and the bodice The black skirt with
bright colcred waists which have no black
in their composition is no longer consG-
cred swell. For example, a blue and fawn
checked silk blouse is very good style with
either a fawn or a blue cloth skirt, while
with black il would be very ordinary.
