Church, Father Gervais, and the

On of the masses was for the Rev.

previous to handling them.
: Vegetables should be handed by a SER
want a SECOND time at a family dinner,
but only once at a dinner party unless

FRAGILE PARASOLS
ARE NOW THE STYLE.

Last season the sunshade with the top
of Its handle showing the head of a parrot,
eat. dog. or even a little pig fought its
wav VIGOROUSLY into the limelight. But
1t was predicted then that the fashion
would not last. and now we see the pro-
phet was wise. This summer the demand
In parasol adornments is for fragillty.
For instance. a parasol which will shade
a certain Newport beauty when she deigns
to remain in the shade is fitted with a
tiny silver chain. at the end of which Is
a ring set with sapphires. which slips
over the middle finger of the right hand.
The stick is not much bigger around
than a pencil. The correct sunshade
for morning use is fitted with a suede
loon at the end Of the stick. This loop
passes over the hand and the parasol
then Is attached strongly to It's owner.

TO PRESERVE BUTTER
FOR A LONG TIME

During the early part of the summer It
is often possible to buy good, pure country
butter at a very reasonable sum. II one
can do so. II can be kept sweet and good
for use when butter is very expensive.
Every particle of water or milk should
be pounded out of the butter before It 10
packed, as this is the main cause for but
ter becoming rank, Use a large stone jar
for the purpose, filling the jar and pack
ing each piece In place with a potato
masher. Do not allow any air whatever
to remain in the crock. When full, turn
the crock on the side and drain on what
moisture you con. Cover this with a
double fold Of white cheesecloth. This
should be covered with a layer OF coarse
salt about three inches deep, covered with
water and a coarse towel tied over the
top. The salt canHot get into the butter.
and practically keeps 1t alright. The salt
must never be allowed to dry out or the
butter will spoil. A large or small
quantity may be kept in this manner.

CROUTONS AND
BREAD STICKS.
Toasted Croutons.

Slice some bread that is getting rather
stale, then cut the slices into small cubes.
Put on tins in a moderate oven and as
they begin to color. stir and toss until all
are evenly toasted to a crispy golden
brown. Or, put the diced bread crumbs
into a frying pan with hot butter or olive
oil and shake the pan about until all are
a light golden brown In color.
Bread Sticks.
In preparing these. any bread dough
may be used, though that with shortening
is preferred. After 1t is kneaded enough
to be elastic, cut into pieces half the size
of an egg. then roll on the board, into a
stick about the size of a pencil and about
a foot long. Lay the strips on a creased
baking tin. let them rise very little and
bake in a moderate oven so that they will
dry without much browning.

Il ESHNNRS

A jaunty hat seen at Lissner's is a white
chip sailor shape, trimmed with a wreath
of pale blue osprey feathers. Worn with
one of the pretty summer gowns now so
fashionable, nothing could be p%rettier.
. At B~amberger's the fastidious woman
will find dainty lace-trimmed dress shields.
They are just the thing for the lingerie
waists and blouses, and are not near so
conspicuous as plain shields.
One of those pretty Jumper dresses
seen at the David Straus store will prove
a valuable investment for the summer
girl who finds plenty of pretty clothes a
necessity. They are made of fine ging-
ham and chambray, and are prettily
trimmed.
Beautiful dimities, lawn and cotton
voiles. all crisp and fresh, are attracting
far-seeing buyers to Hahne's. They are
offered at ridiculously low prices, and are
just the thing for the dapty summer
gowns now so much In vogue.
Quite the daintiest Marie Antoinette
shirt wrists, of sheer batiste and lawn,
are offered at L. s. Plaut & Co.'S. They
are trimmed with the becoming rufus, so
much in favor this season.
Japanese porch screens will add greatly
to the comfort of the stay-at-homes. The
display of these screens and awnings seen
at w. V. Snyder's, will interest the care
full householder. !.
A very desirable line Of summer gloves
was seen at the shop of Miss Teresa P.
Smith, on West Park street. Black and
white are the colors most In demand. and
the materials include silk. Isle and mer-
cerized. in plain and fancy weaves, at
prices to suit the most slender purse.

The Retail Clerks Protective Associa-
ton of st. Joseph, Mo-, is up In arms In
defense of girls and women who toll and
labor in stores, year in and year out,
for wages that hardly keeps them in
carfare and lunches, much less being
sufficient to allow them to live n
clothe themselves decently. One dele
gate at a recent convention in that city
bitterly upbraided the owners of de-
partment stores for employing young
women at the small wage of SO a week.
He did not hesitate to say that Low
wages drive more girls to wrong-doing
than the wine-rooms and saloons
which, IL investigated, would be found
to be true. Young girls and women
who are employed In stores and shops
all day can hardly be blamed II they
crave for recreation when the days.
work Is finished. If they can afford
sufficient spending money they usually
pick out the amusements and resorts
that are ~patronized by theJ better class
of people, but If they are Obliged. toI
contribute to the support of a home and'
perhaps bear part Of the expense of
clothing themselves, they are compelled;
to look for other amusements in less
desirable places, and they naturally
meet temptations which would hardly
assail them were they free n indie
pendent to mingle with people of finer
tastes.
1t is a dreadful thing to even think of
girls and young women frequenting
wine-rooms, concert halls and other low
resorts, In search of amusement, which
they are bound to do when no other
opportunity for legitimate amusement
is afforded them. Such temptations in.
many cases may be traced to the factl
that these young people are underpaidl
and because of the lack of sufficient,
funds and their innate love for a good
time" they too often succumb to thes
temptations placed in their way

A Local Example.

Not later than yesterday a young
mar in this city was arrested for m
bezzling a large sam of money from
his employers. He held a position of
trust, for which he was paid the mis-
efable sum of 81 a week. Not for an

But is it not reasonable to claim that
his employers are also to blameh What
man of twenty years could be expected

his position on such a small sum-? To
