FRUIT AND VEGETABLES.

Always quarter and core apples for cooking purposes, never slice them.
 Uncooked figs are aperient, but dur ing the cooking process lose this prop erty.
 If you have tendency to biliousness or gout or if your liver is too inactive, eat freely of carrots.
 Celery contains sulphur and Is excel lent either steamed or raw for suffer CTS from rheumatism.
 Very acid beverages and acid fruits are in general best avoided or taken only in moderation by those whose skins give them trouble, but of fresh vegetables and good ripe fruit they can hardly have too much.
 People with weak digestion often complain that stewed fruit does not agree with them. This is very often the result of eating bread with the fruit--a thing never to be recommend ed even for people with healthy diges tiOnS

A Wet Pack.

To make wet pack strip all bed coverings from the mattress or over lay. Now spread upon this counter pane. over this two blankets, and upon these sheet that has been dipped into cold water and lightly wrung. Let the patient be quite unclad. He must lie down on the wet sheet, and have this tightly folded about him, leaving only head and face uncovered. The other wraps are now folded around him one by one. Over all more blankets may be placed. The patient may be kept In the wet pack for any period between twenty minutes and two hours. Many doctors recommend that on being freed from the wraps the patient have cold bath. The wet pack Is very useful in feverish and infammatory states.

 FINE NECkWEAR.
Laundering Hint For the Girl With
 Limited Income.

The girl with limited income must fixing up her little wardrobe and i'll washiug and ironing all the neck pieces and the like which do not need the professional laundreSS' strenuous treat. mcnt. And there's many woman too. who prefers to do up all those ex tra little fine pieces, which she would not care to trust to the laundress
 A certain woman i'll the latter class has her washin. day just like the Mon days programme Ill the kitchen, but hers is conducted on a much smaller scale. She has q tiny washboard. a dolls Clotheshorse, q little bottle of bluing and a basin with running wa ter, where she may fix up her soapsuds (she uses soap jelly and warm water. Like the experienced laundress, she sorts her pieces. doing the most deli cate aud the least soiled first and changing the water frequently. The ordinary method of wringing is too much of a strain for these fine mate rials. so she has her own way of doing it that saves her pieces greatly. She rolls piece into tiny ball and presses it firmly between her palms until all the water runs out. When they are all washed she rinseS them again ill cool water.
 The ironing board is then brought out, covered with a bit of flannel and an outside piece of muslin. The iron is heated with a little alcohol lamp in moment Of course she does not use much starch.

How She should Dress to Improve
 Her Appearance.

 Everything in the shape of high throat jeweiIE. such as dog collars. should be avoided. In fact, the less icwelry worn in the shape of Hccklets the bet ter. II may perhaps be accepted as oHe of the compcnsations of the stout that they are mostly blessed with good neeks and shoulders, albeit their throats are inevitably short.
 An appreciable share of the work to- ward suppressin@ or disguising the size is effected by properly cut petit coats shaped to fit around the base of the corsets and held i'll that position by a long waiSted hook in front. The flow from the hem must commence quickly, otherwise there will be a tend ency to define the figure below the waist too prominently
 The greatest assistance is offered to short, podgy foot, than which noth- ing is less addicted to grace, by a well cut boot with prominent toe. the heel only moderately high. It is high heels and rounded toe that make for small- ness.

Passing of Platters.

Fish and game platters have almost become obsolete. The magnificent fish and game plates, decorated with sign. ed paintings by the foremost artists of Europe, are no longer sold in sets, ac companied by platter, but are sold by the dozen.
 "Why is that?"
 "Oh,' said the dealer, because it is not customary now to carve on the table at dinner of any importance. Nearly everything is served la Russo, meats. etc. being carved by the but Ter. There is, therefore, no place for a platter"
 This effects a modest saving of sev- eral hundred dollars in many cases, as this specially signed china costs scarcely less than solid gold.-Philadel- phia Press.
