Very attractive and handy Nppli-
anees are now brought out for the
amateur cook. They are Of bronze.
copper and silver plate. and each may
be mounted on its own spirit lamp or
electrical fitting, says the Chicago In

"Epieureanism Is on the increase,
and many more people are particular

hour before bottle time" Is the right
time for the plunge. II sometimes
happens, however. that some slight ir-
regularity in the feeding occurs, and

more before bottle time" To far too
many mothers this means trotting to

of all. walking to sleep, afterwards.
Don't! After the baby is clean and

There seems TO have been this year a
reluctance on the part OF the managers
OF the boats TO race in the rain. This is
undoubtedly due to the fact that the
great mainsails of the yachts cannot
stand much OF a wetting, as any great
amount OF moisture absolutely ruins them
for future use.
The expense OF these sails. which
amounts in the case of the Reliance to
5000 is not particularly minded. but the
sail which she has been carrying for the
past two weeks has been stretched out
into such fine shape that IL is almost per-
feet and those I'm charge OF the boat are
adverse to trial races which would ruin
