Embroidery Everyu here.

II Is astonishing what n quantity
of hand work one sees on street
clothes nowadays. Everywhere one
comes across bits of the most elabor-
ate embroidery, in vests, cuffs and
collars, black being introduced with
deep reds, blues and yellows with
superbly decorative results. Some
times the embroidery is in the Rus
sian cross-stitch, with the rich tan
of the coarse canvas upon which it
is worked showing at intervals. This.
in red and black, is very chic on flannel
shirt waists in solid colors; the en-
broidery forming collar cuffs, but
ton band and belt.
Some very rich hand embroidery,
in gold and black threads, appear on
the bolero which is copied from q
late French gown. This costume is
as astounding as it is effective in
the combination of its materials. A
skirt and sleeves of bright red frieze
are minutely checked with narrow
lines in black; the novel jacket is red
cloth, while the under bodice and low
er sleeves are no less than q black
jersey in spun silk. Where the panels
of tine jacket lap, back and front, are
placed small gilt buttons, in rows of
three. The stock. belt and elbow
puffs are of the tinsel embroidery on
the red cloth, and the founce and
odd tablier of the skirt are outlined
by a stitched band in plain red.-

For the Lavender sachet.

A charming sachet design to hold

lavender blossoms in pompadour rib

in the natural colors is highly artistic.

the addition of little white butterflies.

the word ''lavendar." with its letters
formed of the flower stalks, is attrac-

Bread Materials.

A great many different materials
besides wheaton -four have been used
for bread Beans, peas and other veg
etables, as well as barley, Indian meal,
oatmeal and other grains, have been
tried at different times in place of
wheat. Even turnips, boiled until soft
and mashed with the greater part of
the water pressed out of them, have
been used for bread. When mixed
with one-half its weight of wheat
meal this preparation of turnips is said
to make palatable loaf. 1t is raised
with yeast like any wheaton loaf, and
when the bread is properly raised.
baked and cooled it is said that the
odor and favor Of turnips is scarcely
perceptible.
Potato bread Is made of one part
potatoes boiled and mashed dry and
two parts of wheaton meal. 1t is then
raised with yeast and kneaded like any
other loaf.
Rice bread is made OF three parts
wheat -four and one part rice. The
rice is boiled tender and drained free
from water and mixed with the flour.
1t is then mixed into loaf and raised
with yeast and thoroughly baked.
Barley used to be extensively used
for bread of coarse quality, but it Is
inferior to wheat, and, though used
extensively in Europe, is seldom seen
In this country.-New York Tribune.

AGRICULTURAL.


The desirability of feeding concen-
trates while cattle are on grass will
depend almost wholly on circum-
stances. In many cases it is advisa-
BILE to give a mixture of q gluten feed
one part, wheat mlddlings two parts.
This Is also an ideal ration when
used with coarse folders. The glu-
ten is deficient in ash, but that is sup
piled by the wheat middlings. As a
rule cows should have some dry feed
during the carly grazing period, as
the grass is deficient in starch and is
considered washy.
