a Good Antiseptic,

Boric aid and boracic acid are the
same. Every h~ousekeeper should have
on hand a supply of this very useuf
a~ntiseptic. For burns it is unusually
excellent. Drop two ounces of the
boric acid crystals in a glass quart
jar and fill with water. This makes
a saturate solution. Take a piece of
gauze or cheesecloth. saturate with
the solution and lay on the burn. APP

Frills AGAIN in Favor.

Tiny frills are again being seen on
muslin and other f~ine-textured gowns.
These were particularly noticeabls at
a recent fashionable function, where
several dresses were wo<n ornament
ed in this fashion. One was com
posed q spotted net, and the skirt
had no less than 10 graduated frills,
each frill being edged with tiny gauze
ribbon. The bodice was made in fchu
style, with frills to match those on
the skirt, and with elbow sleeves also
finished with frills. Lace revers, chem
isette, and high collar. and deep belt
o. rose-tinted China ribbon gave the
finishing touches.-Brooklyn Eagle.

Paris Fashion Hints.

Lingerie robes promise to be better
than ever during the coming season,
only they are to be far more elabor-
ate than ever, representing a fabulous
amount of work.
Yokes are conspicuous upon the
loyeliest of blouses-yokes definitely
cut or the lines of a yoke connived at
by the way the trimming is disposed.
The empire scarf of colored gauze is
in high favor and lends the note OF
color TO an otherwise single-toAed
gown that r. Parisienne's eye for dra'
matte effects requires.

Russian Epicurean Coffee.

This coffee is made of a quantity of
coffee. fruit and cognac in an open
bowl. The coffee is first laid in the
bowl aud a quantity of finely chopped
apples and pears make a second layer.
The whole is then covered with cog.
nae, which is lighted, and there re-
mains a highly aromatic and delicious
syrup which is the %epicure's idea Of
Russian coffee. At first this appears
n strange drink, but it oon becomes
very popular. The idea Of using fruit
with coffee seems to be confined TO
the Russians, but 1t suggests interest.

More cheerful are the suggestions
that we find in the table scarfs, doilies,
coverlets and tea-cloths embroidered
with a skill and grace that rivals
painting. Linen is the twin OF lace
in the affection Of the feminine breast.
The woman who does not prize ex-
quislte linen is so exceptional that she
seems to have an odd twist in her
mental outfit. There is a wide scope
for decoration in linen for the table
not only, but for the drawing-room
ana the bed-chamber, and often the
single opportunity for its sale is in an
exchange. The department stores
cannot often furnish specimens so
unique and designs so artistic as are
shown by the lady who presldes at the
exchange.
A board of managers with president,
secretary and treasurer, are essential
TO the conduct Of an exchange. Often
II adds TO it's other sales a luncheon
and tea room where simple meals are
furnished to shopping people. the Pc
euliar inducement TO them being that
hey may refresh themselves in a quiet
nlace with well-served and well-cooked
food. A few yiands should form the
bill OF fare, they should be the best

Nine GorCd skirt.

The skirt worn with a sirdle OF
the material is a favorite one. IL
gives the suggestion of the corselet
effect without the disadvantages
which that style has for certain fig
ures and is very generally becoming.
Here is one that is absolutely novel in
effect and that is pleated after a quite
new and distinctive manner. In the
illustration gray broadcloth, in the
shade known as opium smoke, is
stitched with belding silk and
trimmed with little folds of the ma
terial and with handsome buttons.
All the suiting materials of the sea
son are, however. appropriate, the
skirt making a desirable one for the
more severe and useful costumes of
mannish suitings and tweeds, as well
as for the dressy ones of broadcloth.
The skirt is cut I'm nine cores. The
front gore is laid I'm two box pleats
with outward turning pleats at the
edges, while the sidC-front cores are
cut with extensions that lap well over
onto il and are stitched into position.
The back cores are laid in two box
pleats that meet at the centre, and
the girdle is cut in sections, the
seams OF which meet those of the
skirt and which provide perfect fit.
