Jet and SpangIes.

the the spangles. are much lighter than

Spangles are seen not only On frocks,
but they deck all the accessories that

embroidered, these glittering bits of color
being very effective and beautiful.
Pearl trimmings and ornaments are al
most as popular as jet, and many Of

Gold and silver fringe and tinsel are
used to a great extent and wooden beads
in Oriental and Bulgarian colors are en-
ployed for dress ornamentation.
Tassels of various kinds-some of them
seven or eight inches long-are utilized
by the smart dressmaker this fall.

Chestnut Desserts.

smell anc hianch about two cups of
chestnuts wh;:h have been boiled until
tender. Rub the chestnuts through a
sieve and stir them carefully into a
pint or whipped cream, to which have
been added half a cup of powdered
sugar and teaspoonful of vanilla ex-
tract. Add two teaspoonfuls of maras-
chino cordial. turn into a mold and
pack away in ice and salt for five
hours. Serve with whipped cream
dashed with rum.
To make marrone glaces, a delicacy
that is rather costly when bought at
confectioner's, yet which is of great
value to the housekeeper who loves
tasteful garnishing. select large, per-
feet chestnuts. Shell and simmer q
pint of the nuts in boiling water until
tender. Drain and toss into cold water
to make them firm. Let the chestnuts
drain moment, then turn them out
thoroughly dry. A sirup must now
be made by boiling a cup of sugar in
pint of water. and in this simmer the
chestnuts for an hour. Drain off the
strip and to it add few drops of
vanilla extract. Then cook it until it
becomes brittle when dropped in cold
water-as one tries candy. Set the pan
of strip in a larger pan of hot water
to keep the hot strip from cooling and
candying, and dip in the chestnuts one
by one, removing them and placing on
oiled paper.

BAKED FILLETs OF WHITE FISH
Cleaning Baby's Bottle.

Quite the prevailing method Of cleansing
vessels which have contained milk is to
scald them. This is mistake. Milk
contains albumen and scalding water CO

of the vessel, forming a powerful aid to
the rapid souring of the next lot of milk
which goes into the vessel
Rinse milk bowls first with cold water,
then place them into scalding water.
Wash. dry and invert them over a shelf
in the larder. allowing, however, for a
passage of air into the vessel. This may
be done either by allowing one edge of
the basin to rest on a Stat of wood nailed
to the shelf-or resting on it If it be
stone--or by allowing the basin to pro-
ject little over the edge of the shelf.
Immediately after a feed. put feeding
bottles and teats into cold water and
brush them well. Then give them like
treatment in hot water and borax-one
pint of the former to one teaspoonful of
the latter--reversing the teat. Rinse bot
tie and teat in clean cold water, leave
the teat in borax and water and invert
the bottle on a clean shelf.
If a baby shows signs of diarrhoea cease
giving it milk feeds. substituting whey or
barley-water. Send Immediately for the
doctor, as developments may have grave
issues.

With Pictures to Frame.

, Picture framing is a difficult art
Sometimes one is born with an innate
taste in picture framing as in every
thing else. Sometimes one never can
acquire this taste, and must leave
everything with the picture Trainer II
the picture Trainer knows his business
we'll and good. If he doesn't-there are
sad results.
The tendency now is to frame most
pictures with little or no mats. The
color and quality of prints, either
colored. brown or black, are best
against the print. When a mat must
be used. have It in a color that har-
monies with the tone of the picture.
Water color pictures usually look
well in narrow gilt frames A narrow
mat of cream, white or gilt usually
brings out the colors. Often, however.
silver gray or green frame, some
times one of light brown, flat and not
heavy In appearance, is used to good
advantage.
Japanese prints look we'll with a mar
row mat of grasscloth in silver gray.
A narrow frame of black, flat and
straight. or one of gray is best. Some
times a tiny line of silver molding, al
most "1Tellhe III us. HdIio" 1865 10
used inside a black frame for a Japa-
nese or black and white print to ad-
vantage.
A photograph printed in sepia tones
or any of the sepia prints is best
framed in brown wood. Usually, &C
cording to present-day standards, fiat
simple frame looks best, although one
of carved wood or turned wood can be
used. Sometimes the Florentine wood
frames. that travellers to Florence buy
and bring home by the yard, can be
effectively used on brown prints. they
are especially in keeping on copy
of some old Italian picture in brown:
But usually a simple, unornamented
frame is more effective.
One way to lessen the expense OF
framing pictures-and it is big ex-
pense. as woman who was forced TO
nav 81 cents for the framing of a ten
cent Japanese print found to her sor-

other frames of other sorts and sizes

blemished, too, and the adjustment OF
the pictures is the matter of only
few moments.

Chatting Dish Recipes.

In many families where the Sunday
dinner is eaten at noon the chatting
dish holds an important place on the
supper table. Most persons have their
favorite chatting dish recipes which they
use over and over again, but the
chafing dish lends itself to an endless
variety of good dishes.
Here are four good Sunday night
supper dishes that can be easily made:
PANIED OYSTERS-For twenty five
oysters put in the chatting dish one
tablespoonful of butter. When it is
melted add the juice of half lemon
and one teaspoonful of chopped pars-
ley. Then add the oysters, which
should be well drained. Cook, stirring
carefully, until they are plump and
the gills are little fried. Season with
salt and pepper and serve on toast.
The juice from the chatting dish should
be poured over the toast to soften it.
CRAB TOAST.-Put into the chatting
dish a tablespoonful of butter. When
it is melted add a tablespoonful of
chopped celery, a teaspoonful Of flour,
a half cupful of cream or milk and a
canful Cor its equivalent In fresh
meat) of crab meat. Stir until the
moisture is nearly evaporated; add a
tablespoonful of sherry, salt and pep

toasted biscuits or on thin slices OF
toast.
