The Chicago woman,s Walk.

Did you ever notice her? She is a
marvel, No trolley car will ever run
over her. She moves, and she moves
with lightning rapidity. She darts in
between the pedestrians, dives through
a group that is packed as closely as
sardines in box, swings and swishes
as she scoots around the corner and
disappears like a blue streak. She is a
wonder. Now, the interesting thing
about 1t all is the fact that Chicago
methods are responsible for the way
Chicago women walk. Take the street
cars. The average woman who strikes
an average gait could not catch a Chi
cago street car in a months time with
out obstructing the track. The car
stops. The bell rings and the car is
Of. But it never gets away from the
Chicago woman. She knows a few
things. She touches the pavement
once between the curbstone and the
car. She pounces upon the car, crawls
in between the seats, crawls over the
callous bodies of ungallant men, grabs
strap and swings on until she is
ready to get off. But with it all she
has lost nothing of that gracefulness
of motion which adds so much to the
charm of a woman's presence, and,
after all, the way they walk is a good
thing and an interesting phase of Chi
cago life.-New Orleans Times Demo-

chinese women Learning to walk.


According to a San Francisco spe.
cial in the New York Herald, Nine.
WI Ting-fang wife Of the Chinese
Minister who returned a few DAYS
ago from visit to her native land,
says small feet are no longer the fash
ion there. "The very first penetrat-
ing influence Of exterior civilization
on the customs of my country has
touched the conditions Of women"
said Nine. WI. 1.-THE emancipations
of women in China means, first of all,
the liberation Of her feet, and this Is
coming. Indeed, it has already come
in measure, for the style in feet has
changed. Wee bits Of feet, those no
longer than an infants, are no longer
the fashion. When 1 went back home
l found that the rigid binding and
forcing back Of the growth Of the feet
was largely thing Of the past. China,
with other nations, has come to re-
gard that practice as barbarous, but
the small feet, those that enable a
woman to walk a little and do not in,
convenience her in getting about the
house, are still favored by the Chinese
ladies'"

THE CARE Of GEMS.
Diamonds Require Gentle Treatment to
Continue Sound and Brilliant.

Diamonds Require Gentle Treatment to
Continue Sound and Brilliant.
The best Of all jewel boxes are not
the satin-lined, velvet-covered ones in
which the jewelers. alluringly display
their wares, but alright cases simply
lined with wool. Even in such a re.
ceptacle diamonds should be wrapped
in silversmith's tissue paper to keep
them Of exquisite brilliancy.
Diamond in spite of their hardness,
must be treated with great care.
Though they can hardly be scratched,
they nevertheless chip and when
roughly used are easily loosened in
their setting and fall out at the most
unexpected moment. When they are
sent to be cleaned the expert first
tests the settings and then dips the
ring or pin repeatedly into a little eau
de cologne. A powerful magnifying
glass is used to detect any foreign"
bodies in the setting, and an ornament
that has an accumulation Of dust,
grease or soap on its under side, a
blemish that is often noticeable in
rings, is dipped alternately in soap
suds and eau de cologne, and a very
fine soft camelhair brush pointed like
pencil is employed to reach delicate
ly between the claws of the setting.
When the jewel is thoroughly clean
1t is buried in jar of fine sawdust to
dry. This is all done after the gold
or silver mounting has been carefully
rubbed with jewelers. rouge, dried and
polished with tiny chamois-covered
pad.
When diamonds and turquoises are
set together the most exquisite care is
taken that alcohol only is utilized with
whiting to clean both the setting and
the diamonds, and as little moisture
as possible is allowed to come near
the blue stones. If a turquoise has
been carelessly treated and is turning
green from the effects Of water, the
cleaner sets it to soak in stale beer,
which treatment viii frequently re
store the pure azure color. But old
turquoises that are nearly green have
q value of their own.
Pearls require a great deal of human
companiCnship, and that is why they
are so constantly worn by their own
ers. When they are "sick" Ito use a
technical term) they are given sun
baths, and sometimes are sunk in the
sea in perforated caskets to be re-
stored to health and lustre. Pearls
held in a warm, dry hand and drawn
slowly backward and forward through
the half-closed member are benefited.
Some women have their pearls re-
strung every season, and when the
owner cannot arrange to wear a fine
string Of these gems at least once
fortnight the cleaner lays them in a
cup of warm -four or lukewarm fresh
milk to keep their skins in good order.
Experts test real diamonds by touch
ing them with the tip Of their tongue.
Diamonds are icy cold; paste is not.
Real pearls they can differentiate from
false, it is said, by the touch of their
finger tips, for the skin of the real
pearl has feeling peculiar to itself.

Tailor-Nrado Hats.


Tailor-made hats bid fair to rival the

IMPORTANT POINTERS.


The kneading motion should be light
and elastic. 1t has a two-fold object,
to stretch the gluten and to make the
bread lighter in color.
Bread must be thoroughly baked to
kill the yeast plant and rupture the
starch cells.
Large loaves must go into slow
oven and be in ten minutes before
browning, A too hot oven means a
heavy crust, which Is non-conductor,
and prevents the heat from reaching
the centre. Small loaves should go
into a quick oven.
German bread with kimmel seeds is
a good luncheon bread.
OF course there is but one sort Of
bread for dinner, lust bread"
A mixture that pours is thin batter.
One that drops from a spoon is a thick
batter. While a mixture thick enough
to knead is a dough.
Good -four is as important as good
yeast. White -four should be slightly
granulated, and free from bran. Rye
-four resembles it, and may be made
after the same recipe.
The suburban citizen., 1901-12-07
CORN noAF.


Make one pint Of mush; when cold
add one pint Of scalded milk, one
yeast cake, dissolved, and sufficient
flour to make a batter. Beat thor
oughly, and stand aside for two hours.
When light add enough flour to make
a dough, knead carefully and put at
once into a creased pan and when it is
again light bake in a moderately quick
oven one hour.
RUSSIAN AND GERMAN.

rye bread which is made without
