Preparinq for September.

If woman is choosing a serviceable
fabric for an early September gown.
she could do no better than to pick
up some bargains of fine French wolfe.
We have gotten somewhat tired OF
these in America, for few are worn
here, yet the women who are coming
back from Paris are bringing one or
two in their trunl.s.
OF all these, the prettiest are the
Rob Roy plaids in Alice blue and
cream and magenta and white.
These are made with box-plaited
skirts and surpliced blouses with
round chemisette and long tight
sleeveless of fine white batiste and
valenciennes and Mechlin insertions,
all done by hand.
With them are worn high soft belts
Of crushed leather in ivory white.

Advice for Mothers.

When making baby's short clothes.
mothers will find 1t great saving II
they will do the following two simple
things. Make the neckbands of the
little dresses a trife larger than
necessary, then draw very narrow
tapes through, and when making the
sleeves cut them a little longer than
required, and sew two horizontal
tucks below the elbow. II this IS
done, as baby grows and his little
arms lengthen, the tucks can be let
out, and the string round his neck
need not be tied SO tightly. In this
way the little dresses will last much
longer without being outgrown.

CHAPTER XIV.

The island of Grande Terre, on the
coast of Louisiana, runs parallel with
the mainland; and at its western end
ia q secure harbor, reached by the
Great Pass of Barataria, whose water
is from nine to ten feet in depth.
Here, on Grande Terre, were sold
the captured cargoes and prizes; and
people from all parts of Louisiana
came hither to purchase them, with
no apparent attempt or desire to con-
ceal the object OF their mission.
Jean LATTE was, with Pierre, sit
ting in the dining-room OF his own
house, of which, however, the latter
was nominal master.
''And 80 Laro is dead, and the Barra
de Hero In English hands," Pierre
was saying.
"Tell me Of thy plans, and what Is
TO become of the lovely Senorita La
aalie."
At this, Jean, putting aside his for
mer mood, sketched out clearly all his
intended operations, telling In detail
Of his Interview with Philip La Roche.
who with his widowed sister, Madame
Riefet, would take the Spanish
beauty into their charge.
It was now some two months since
the governors edict had been issued
against the introduction of African
slaves; and he had followed this by
an address ITO all whom 1t might
concern In the territory" stating that
It had come to his knowledge that
welllaid plans existed to defeat and
evade this edict by way of Barataria;
and. as Jean now learned from Pierre.
q rumor was afloat that the governor
contemplated setting price upon the
head of Jean LATTE, smuggler, slave
trader, and pirate.
1T is only rumor as yet" an
swered Pierre, with no sign Of anxi.
ETY.; "and, together with the stories
of bad feeling growing between these
states and England, 1t gives the people
= little OF the excitement they ever
seem to crave"

Picked Cherries.

Picked cherries are the most de-

not be purchased for love or money.
For this purpose select large, rather
tart, cherries with the stems on, wash
and pack into fruit jars. making them
about three-quarters full. Bring to
scald one quart Of cider vinegar. one
cupful OF white sugar, two dozen
whole cloves and twelve blades Of
mace, with a few pieces of stick Gin

keep in q cool, dark place.
