Embroidery on Gowns.

Glimpses Of a few new gowns and
blouses indicate that hand embroidery
will be lavishly used. Persian effects
In embroidered bands or bold designs
form the newest garnitures. Well
gowned women are wearing long-skirt-
ed or basque coats, tightly fitting, and
buttoned down the front. Most Of
these have the regulation coat sleeve.
Others have leg-o-mutton sleeves,
with gauntlet cuffs. Where sleeves
are large the fullness is generally
above the elbow. To be worn with
these long coats, tailors are making
strikingly smart little Louis XIV
vests. These are made Of the hand
some vestings which come for mems
waistcoats. Lace and tucked net vests
are worn with dressy broadcloth
gowns, where narrow bands of fur
are used as a bodice and skirt trim
ming. Some of the short walking
suits are also fur-trimmed.

EVERYTHING Tucked.

Everything is shirred or tucked this
summer. Shirt waists are tucked,
and whole frocks are tucked, and
smart little coats are tucked or plait-
ed all over. Gowns of soft materials
are shirred, and it Is the prettiest pos
sible way to make them. The one
illustrated this week is a charming
example. 1t is Of white dimity, dotted
with pink. The waist has a shirred
yoke, and then blouses over a girdle
of pink silk. The skirt is shirred in
four places, and finished with little
ruffle at the foot. A hat of white
shirred lawn is worn with this frock,
the only trimming being big soft
bow of pale pink ribbon. The shirt
waist illustrated this week is of de-
sign suitable for silk linen, or any
wash goods. The fiat little box plaits
are very smart, and the lace or en-
broiderY used down the front and
around the neck gives a very pretty
finish.

To Make Gun Custard.

One quart of milk, 5 eggs, heap
ing tablespoons sugar, u saltspoon
salt, l teaspoon vanilla. Heat milk;
beat eggs, whites and yolks separate
ly, beat salt and sugar into yolks; add
heated milk a little at a time, stir
well; then add beaten whites and re-
turn to fire. 1t is almost impossible
to make custard successfully without
a double boiler. Use two pans if you
have no boiler. Stir gently while
cooking. When custard is nearly
cooked, the foam on top disappears.
the custard clings to the spoon. DO
not leave it second; stir constantly
When cooked perfectly smooth, take
from fire and turn to cool in cups in
which it is to be served. Sherbet
glasses are most commonly used.

Potato Feelings, if dried in the oven,
are said to be very useful for fire

Thickness of Cream at churnina Tim

Thickness OF Cream at Churninq Time
A well-known buttermaker says that
the richer the cream the lower must
be the temperature at which It must
be churned to get the best Of results.
1t is not desirable to have the butter
fat comprise more than 80 per cent
Of the cream. Even cream Of this
richness should be churned at about
so degrees, which Is a very low point
to secure this time of year. II this
rich cream Is churned at a higher
point the body of the butter will not
be what 1t should be. The housewife
is not likely, however, 60 have cream
Of this kind unless the milk is from
cows whose cream forms a very com.
pact mass. Cows differ greatly in this
respect. The cream layer on the
milk of some animals is so compact
and cohesive that when it is removed
from the milk it hangs together much
like a piece of leather. Other milk
yields a layer of cream that breaks
to pieces readily. This milk will not
churn quickly. In fact we have known
the first described cream to form but
ter after being churned for two min.
utes in a common dash churn. 1t is
considered best, however to dilute
such cream, as 1t is not believed that
butter churned in two minutes has
as good qualities as that requiring
twenty minutes or thereabout to churn.

An Incubation Experiment,

In the incubation experiments, 8,677
eggs from various sources have been
set in the incubators. OF these, 1905,
or SO per cent, were fertile. Three
thousand three hundred and forty
eight, or 46 per cent, of the fertile
eggs were Matched. This was 1876 per
cent of the total number. The
efficiency of Matching under various
conditions ranged from per cent to
"a per cent. These experiments were
planned in the direction of testing the
efficiency of the machines and the in
fluence of moisture and room tempera-

around the waist to form a girdle. was
tied on the back in heavy knot,

Asbestos Table Coverings

A new covering for dining tables

then laid over them, and one is spared

The city Of Baltimore was visited
Monday morning by ono of the most
destructive fires known in the history
of the world. While no lives were
lost in the gigantic destruction, the
loss sustained cannot, at this time be
fully estimated, but will run up into
the hundreds of millions of dollars.
The associated press reports say of
the conflagration:
Baltimore, Md, Feb. S.-The fire
which broke out few minutes before
II o'clock yesterday morning in the
Wholesale dry goods house of John
E. Hurst & Co. has ragged with un-
restrained fury continuously ever
since and at a, M, it is still un-
checked but is steadily eating its
way eastward on Baltimore street. af-
ter having consumed almost all of the
large stores and the buildings on
both sides of Baltimore street and
from Howard to Holiday street, from
Charles to Baltimore and Lexington
and on Fayette street from Charles to
Holiday, including total Of about
twenty blocks of the most modern and
substantial buildings in Baltimore,
involving a loss which canrot now
be estimated but which has certain
ly already reached thirty or forty
millions of dollars.
Ever since about six o'clock when
darkness came, the FIRE department,
although aided by engines from
Washington, Philadelphia, Whining
ton and the surrounding suburbs,
has been utterly powerless to make
any effective resistance to the con-
Stunning element, though for hours
as many as 400 streams of water
were thrown on the flames. Indeed,
so terrific has been the heat ever
since the fire started, and so dense
and suffocating the volume Of flying
sparks and burning cinde:s that it
was difficult for the 6remen to stand
long within fighting distance of the
flames, while early in the afternoon,
several trucks and engines were help
lessy disabled by timbers.
At Z O'Clock the situation was des-
perate and Chief Horton decided that
the only thing left to do was to dyna-
