LITTLE BUYING FOR FUTURE
Actual Business for Immediate Needs
Is Earee-Dry Goods Stocks Are.
Kept Low.

New York.-R. G. Dun & Co.'s week.
ly review Of trade says:
"The trade recession, although plain,
continues irregular, actual business for
immediate needs being large, but
there is comparatively little buying
for future or speculative requirements.
In dry goods this tendency is mani
Testing itself, and, as it serves to keep
stocks low, it makes for strong
economic position, especially as retail
distribution aggregates large.
''It is notable in view of all these
conditions that building operations, al
though falling behind some in some
localities, are. taking the country over,
large.
Some tendency toward firmness is
apparent in certain departments OF
iron and steel, although in general the
outlook is sufficiently uncertain to
make consumers cautious in contract
ing for future requirements, and most
of the present demand is for imme-
diate needs only. II
Dress goods and mems wear for
immediate shipment are in better de-
mand, while spring business is limited.
Press ginghams and subcount prints
in cotton goods are being offered free

quiet, although there is a moderate de.

Mills continue to curtail in cotton
centers, and until the cotton crop is

Culinary SUGGESTIONS.

Mashed potatoes are such common
accompaniment for roast poultry or
broiled steak that 1t seems surprising
that SO few cooks serve them properly.
When boiled In rapidly boiling water
with tablespoonful of salt to quart
Of water they should when cooked fall
into a snowy mass at the first blow OF
the masher. After draining them re-
move the cover and shake over the
fire to remove all moisture, then mash
until smooth, adding the cream or milk
heated, then the butter and salt. Pile
the potatoes into a hot dish; but do
not pat down, that makes them heavy.
Potatoes mashed and served in this
manner are a strong contrast to the
ordinary mashed potatoes as served.
Many people like cooked cucumbers,
for those few suggestions may be
welcome. When they get little too
coarse of seed to serve sliced, pare
and slice in lengthwise quarters,
scrape out all the seeds and cook them
in slightly salted boiling water until
they are tender; then drain, butter
them, season with salt and pepper and
serve on narrow lengths of toast well
buttered.
Fried cucumbers are very appetizing
for breakfast dish. Prepare them as
above except in the manner Of slicing,
leave them in half-inch slices. Sprinkle
with salt and pepper, roll in cracker
crumbs and fry quickly on both sides
in hot bacon fat. These are delicious
served with a cheese omelet.
Here are some new catsups, at
least new to some:
Pear Catsup.
Add two tablespoonfuls Of stick Gin
namon, two teaspoonfuls each OF
cloves and mace to three cupfuls Of
water and simmer Is minutes; pare,
halve and core dozen rich, late
pears, lay in baking dish and pour
the spiced water over them, cover
closely and bake until the fruit is
tender, but not soft, and skim out. Re-
turn the syrup to the fire, and simmer
until reduced to one pint, strain, tie
the spices in bags (three of them) /;
add one pint of strong vinegar and
three pounds Of sugar to the hot liquid
add the pears, a few at time. Skim
out into quart jars with spice bag in
each, and when all are cooked, pour
the pickle over and seal hot. These
should more correctly be called spiced
pears.

His First Lesson in Economy.

some money for firecrackers, torpe

and every day thereafter Gntil the
Fourth turned over to him my small
earnings. When the day Of days came
around l had fund that enabled me
to celebrate in proper style, while
many Of my playmates we're fat

THE GENTLE SHEEP AS A RAPID.
FIRE MoNEYMAKER.

An enormous number Of sheep are
coming into the Union Stock Yards,
Chicago, which are being sent there
by Western graZers on account OF
the scarcity of feed in that section
of the country, and which must be
sold at buyers'-prices.
The states of Michigan, Ohio, In
diana and Illinois, are well provided
with good feed and an opportunity Of
this kind, II offered by one of the
great dry goods houses or department
stores of Chicago, would deplete three
quarters Of the homes OF that city Of
It's womenkind inside of half an hour
after the notice appeared. All they
would want would be time enough to
throw a few clothes over them; some
wouldn't even stop to put rats" in
their hair, thousands would forget
the powder" none would stop to
paint" but every fathers daugh-
ter" of them would make "B" line
to bubbles pants, and extract there
from without leave, license or con-
sent, all that therein was to be found
in the shape of cash, and then tum-
BILE over each other to be first on the
spot.
Lots of these women would buy
much more than they required, and
would quietly hold over their pur-
chases until the close of the sale, and
then let loose their surplus stock up
on their less wide awake friends, and
reap thereby a harvest of "sheckels'
which we may take for granted would
be at once returned to the trouser
pockets of their husbands while those
gentlemen still slept. That is the
woman of it.
Let us take a lesson from her
thrifty and honest example. Extract
ing from the pockets Of slumbering
spouse, under such circumstances Is
not robbery, 1t is only borrowing, and
more than that, it is borrowing on
account of that most beautiful Of all
female characteristics - thoughtful

such as have, can in the course Of
sixty days turn over their money in
such satisfactory way as will add
very largely to their bank accounts.
There is nothing in sight at the

and safer investment than the pur-
chase of these sheep, in numbers that

All Sorts Of Hints.

A good umbrella with proper care
will last for years. Never roll up an
umbrella when wet, as the dies rot it
and soon it will crack in the folds.
When a wet umbrella is left to drip
in the rack, alwoys turn it handle end
down, as the water settled in the top
and If not soon dried will rot the silk.
1t is strangely true that those who
have the fewest clothes are they who
take the least care Of them. 1t is not
wear that makes drabbled mass Of
your best gown in few months. It
is lack of care when not worn. II
hung badly or folded and put away
a gown will soon lose its freshness.
A best way" to hang waists and
skirts is on coat hangers; these may
be made Of barrel hoops If the bought
en- ones are unattainable. Women
who wear their clothes well put them
on carefully and take the stitch and
brush often to their garments are al
ways well dressed. 1t is an economy
to have two or more pairs Of shoes to
wear, as leather, like people, need
rest to wear long. If the feet perspire
the leather rots quickly unless aired
and changed often. Sprinkle little
powder in the shoes or burnt alum is
a good remedy for that trouble.
Use the least dressing or blacking
possible, but do not slight the brush
Did you ever get little shock on
seeing the backs of muddy heels on
an otherwise well dressed woman? :?
When the heels wear out unevenly as
they do with SO many Of US, have the
shoemaker put on another lift and
straighten them. An authority on
such matters says that many ills that
women are prone to are caused from
wearing turnover heels which keep the
body out of plumb.
When putting away shoes for sea.
son of a week. stuff them to keep
them in shape If you cannot afford a
few shoe trees.
Rough braids on the skirts wear
shoes in very short time.
When shoes get wet let them dry
naturally away from the FIRE, then
rub with little sweet oil and they
will be as good as ever. Shoes should
be aired as well as clothing and
oftener. Put them in the window at
night to air.

A child's Birthday Party.

A children's party Is not always an
easy one to arrange; but the pleas
ure it gives the little people more than
repays one for all the trouble.
OF course, there must be ice cream;
it would be no party without it.
A simple plain ice cream is the
best for them, not too rich or served
with a sauce. If one can afford some
thing a little elaborate, 1t is nice to
serve the cream in spun sugar nests.
These may be bought or made at
home and add an elegance to the dish
of cream which is a delight to a child.
Very pretty little cakes may be pre-
pared by using the angel food recipe
and piping the mixture through pos
try tube on to the baking sheets in
any desired form, then bake delicate
brown.
palate of the child is the sandwich.
They are sure to like sandwiches.
Sweet ones may even take the place
Of cake. Homemade bon-bons are al
ways a treat and are much more
wholesome than the kind bought at
the confectioners.
A great variety Of them may be
made with the fondant, favored. They
may be dipped in melted fondant, fla
vcred and colored.
To make the fondant, boil two and
one-half pounds of sugar and a cupful
of water, a half teaspoonful Of cream
of tartar, without stirring, until 1t
forms a soft waxy ball in water. Turn
out on a mable slab or large platter
and when cool work with wooden
spoon until ceramy. Put II into a
bowl, and let it stand covered for
day to ripen. It is then ready to make
into any desired candy.
The charm Of the party',wil not be
fully appreciated until the birthday
cake appears. frightened by its rosy
candles.
A board that may be kept for years
and serve for any number of birthdays
may be made from the top Of a candy
pail. Bore holes not quite through,
but deep enough to hold a small can
die upright, leaving the center for the
plate with the cake. This board may
do for the great-grandmother's birth
day cake as well, for the candles tell
the story of the years.

Many women prefer to write on val
liable recipes rather than use good
cook book in the kitchen. When this
is too much trouble, have a pane OF
glass cut to fit the size Of the open
book, bind the edge with the binding
used in passe partouting and always
have it handy when using the book,
as 1t serves two purposes, keeps the
book open and clean from the spat-
ters in cooking.
For a change add a minced green
pepper to scrambled eggs with few
mushrooms. Watery custard or a Gus
tard that wheys, is caused from cook
ing in too hot an oven or too long in
cooking. Set the dish in hot water
and never allow the custard to boil.
A cupful of ripe olives added to a
beef stew makes an elegant dish out
of common one.
Use tomato Juice instead of water
in the omelet.
Cleaning pots and pans is the bug
bear Of the cook. It Is hard work II
left until after the dishes are washed
and hangs over one as burden. One
easy way is to keep supply Of news
papers In the kitchen and as soon as
a greasy dish is emptied wipe 1t out
with the paper and wash It as soon as
possible. The paper may be burned
and so the grease is kept from the
cloth and sink.
A dish which is a great favorite
with many Is Goldfish served in a white
sauce made of sour cream instead OF
sweet; 1t makes a pleasing change.
Some one says that sour cream is
good in mashed potatoes. 1t is worth
trying.
For a plant stimulant use a few
crystals of iron sulphate dropped into
the watering can once a week. This
chemical being combination of iron,
sulphur and oxygen, acts as a tonic
to the plants tissues.
To clean kid gloves with little
trouble and expense try this method:
Soturate a bit Of clean muslin with
gasoline and shake it out until 1t is
no longer wet, With the glove on,
wipe gently from finger tips to wrist
Hang the gloves in the air for a few
hours to air thoroughly.
Rice, oatmeal or other cereals left
over from breakfast make delicious
pancakes. Take equal parts of the
leftover and -four, add little sugar.
salt and one or two eggs and enough
milk to make heavy batter. Bake in
hot fat until brown. These little cakes
make nice dessert when served with
jelly.
