QUICKLY ACCOMPLISHED.


There may be had by the assiduous
shopper, who knows no such thing as
encouragement, a simple little ging-
ham frock among the ready-to-wears.
This may even taxi a half day to find,
or several separate shopping hours, but
that even will be better for the woman
with the position, whose time is too
closely taken up, than the making Of
an entire gown. But there is a still
further point to be made. The garment
should be chosen with a view to it's cut
alone; his should be (and it often is in
the store dress') ~irreproachable. 1t
should be untrimmed or adorned only
with has pipings. Now, 1 am exacting
both of these requirements for two rea-
sens. If the dress be plain, it may the
of fit, and If made without decorations
there will he no time required to rip off
odious trimmings, and the work of ap-
plying a little real decoration will go
smoothly to it's finish. Now, since the
limited, but good lace or embroidery is
to be the point of our story, let us take
it on to it's conclusion. Just The least
bit of cluny beading inserted along the
seams which will be cut away from be-
meath 1t may convert 1t into a quite
snappy little m~ade-to-order dress, or
the application of a few stitched bands
of white French pique may prove a
novel method for the transformation.
Again, the broad panel of cluny lace
inserted across the bust, on each sleeve
along the top of the upper arm and
across the lower part of the front skirt
panel six inches from the hem will
make an almost handsome dress for
general summer wear. 1t is a device, If
you will, but the busy woman should
be alive to all devices that represent
time and labor saved.

Juice may be easily extracted from the
meat by broiling it slightly and then
using a squeezer that comes for the
purpose.
But SO much milk and eggs will
make me bilious" did I hear you say?
No such thing. Every article of food
under the sun disagrees with some
body. However, If the thought of
drinking so much milk in It's own
natural state scares you, 1t can be
made more palatable-and more digest
ible, IL you want me to say SO, though
it really will make little difference
by adding a little viohy to each glass.
A fourth of a t~easpoonful of soda to
each glass will also prevent all chance
of having your stomach upset"
In addition to these builders-which
might be called professional, so thor

all concerned to plan to travel by night.
If you travel in the daytime, then
you will naturally not need to take
any night clothes, but if the journey is
to last twenty-four hours, then you
should take either a little nightie or
else a fresh dress, the latter to be
donned the following morning, just be-
fore arriving at your destination. It
would probably be well to provide an
extra dress in any event, in Ease of an

You should, of course, take plenty of

THE MENU RECIPES.
Clam Cocktails.

Allow half a dozen very small CLAIMS
which have just been taken from the
shells for each cocktail. Haze them
very cold and serve in cocktail glasses
or in tomato cups which have been
made by peeling and scooping the pulp
from small round tomatoes. For each
cocktail allow one tablespoonful Of
lemon juice, four drops of tabasco
little prepared horse-radish. Cocktail
glasses should be placed on a small
fancy plate with a linen dolly between
the glass and plate. Tomato cups
should be erved on a bed of lettuce
leaves.

REST WEAR.

1t should be restful.
And it should be pretty.
THE kimono continues in favor.
Dressing sacques are much embroid-
cred.
Tea gowns are really. lovely little
dresses.
Rest gowns follow the prevailing
mode In general.
Sleeves and skirts grow long or short,
tight or full.
Sleeves, by the way, are better with
out the points that dip into everything.

SEWING HINTS.


To prevent the thread from knotting
when doing hand sewing always make
a knot in the end last broken from the
spool. This done, stretch the thread by
taking the ends and giving several
quick pulls.
A little tin ruler is much easier to
use than the tape measure for the
measuring of little things, such as
bands, hens and tucks.
If you sew a waistbone UP the back
of a tape measure for the first ten
inches you will have a means at hand
10 rapidly Measure skirt lengths and
lines for trimming.
In cutting garments 1t is sometimes
more rapid to fasten the pattern in
place by means of weights than by
pins.
Some thumb tacks, such as artists
and d~raughtsmen use, will be found an
invaluable help in the sewing room.
You will need them to fasten long
cores of slippery silk to your lapboard
or cutting table.

A WASHING SECRET.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

A woman whose cotton clothes never
seem to fade was induced to tell how
she did it.
'In the first place" she said, 81 am
particular that all my colored clothes
have the coioring set with sugar of
lead or salt before washing, but my
particular trick is adding a little color
ing matter, such as is used for candies,
to the rinsing water. Just a drop or
two will make thes materials come out
bright and fresh looking"
Another woman uses a drop or two of
cotton dyes in the rinsing water with
equally good effect.

HEALTH HINT


Though violent exertion these sum-
mer days is, of course, to be avoided,
1t Is essential that adequate exercise TO
keep up a thorough circulation be
taken, for, unless there is circulation.
the bodily wastes cannot be properly
expelled and the system cannot be kept
in a healthful condition. The exer-
else need not be strenuous. Walking
in the early morning or after the heat
of the day is an ideal exercise, to be
followed by a bath and a thorough rub
down. that the skin may glow and the
pores be opened. Precipitation is un-
pleasant. but is of immense value In
maintaining robust health.

Died 1894

My grandmamma has said
Poor old lady, she is dead
Long ago
That he had a Roman nose,
And his cheek was like a rose
In the snow.
But now his nose Is thin,
And It rests upon his chin
Like a staff,
And a crook is in his back,
And a melancholy crack
In his laugh.
I know 1t is a sin
For me to sit and grin
At him here;
But the old three-cornered hat.
And the %breeches, and all that,
Are SO queer!
And if l should live to be
The last leaf upon the tree
In the spring,
Let them smile as 1 do now,
At the old forsaken Dough
Where 1 cling.
