When = gown outlives the ordeal Of
fashion parade-where it must vie
with many other gowns in a beauti-
ful galaXy--one may be sure it pos
sesses one or more novel features that
lend it distinction. These fashion pa
rades, or shows, have become an i'm

lections of new styles of those whose
business il is TO select are put to the
test of a public scrutiny, and the fate
Of many a style is settled.
The gown Of black taffeta. made up
with black and white stripe in the
same silk, which is shown in the pic
ture given here, was duly paraded by
great New York house that launches
its products and imports at a semi
annual affair of this kind. This par
ticular costume was among those sue
cessful ones to be placed before the
camera and thus destined to inspire
admiration in much broader field
than that in which its first triumph
was made.
The double skirt and braid trim
ming are well managed in its make
up. The underskirt is laid in plaits
in which the white stripe lies over the
black. The Tlaits at each side are
turned toward the front and thus
leave narrow panel of black at the
middle of the front. The plating is
set on to plain under-petticoat and
extends to the knees.

To Make Limewater.

There are innumerable uses for lime
water. and SO no home should ever be
without it. 1t is used to keep milk
vessels wholesome, to make the milk
digestible, to soften water, sweeten
drains, etc. By beating limewater
well into olive or linseed oil there re-
suits one of the best known remedies
for burns and scalds. To make lime
water, put lump of quickliIne as
big as the two fists into clean earth
en- pitcher, pouring over enough fresh
drinking water to cover 1T six inches
deep Stir well with wooden spoon, let
stand half day. and then pour off
the clear liquid without disturbing the
lime at the bottom of the pitcher.
Strain though doubled cheesecloth and
then keep in small bottles tightly cork
ed. When using. always pour off a
little from the fresh bottle of one that
has been opened. Thus one gets rid
of the crust that forms.

COOKING Meat and Game.

It is not correct to wash meat and
game. When cleansing is needed.
scrape the bird or joint with a sharp
knife and wipe with cloth dipped in
a weak solution of bicorbonate of soda
and water. Wipe afterward with a
fresh cloth dampened in water alone
If boiling meat is unduly strong, it may
be soaked for an hour in soda and
water

cooking, for this allows the juices to

cannot succeed in one line of art. then
one must go into some line of business

is that art commands commerce. for

Callot's Narrow Skirts.
The demand this coming season is for
materials that lend themselves to the
ripping folds needed by wide skirts.
There Is only one house holding to
narrow skirts and that is Callot's, who
only changed her narrow width to suit
the American buyers. who fatty re-

a woman, changed back according to
her convictions as soon as commercial

they intend to register a dissent to the
unanimous verdict for wide skirts.
