Comtume. For Everyday Wear- Dainty Party Goarn. of Taffeta, SHU and C’re|>on. Cbildr-tn’s fashions have assumed ini parlance, for the old days, when little p-ople wore the clothes which were given them without protest, have passed away and brought troublesome times as to the fashioning of their garments. Meek children are fast going out of fashion, and in their stead we find assertive young men and maidens ready with their criticism and decided opinions as to what they will or will not wear, and quite up to date in all ivh'ers of dress. Children’s gowns %"r:v ever prettier than they are this Reason, for there is such variety in the soft, obliging materials, in the fascinating art colors, and the full skirts, large sleeves, wide collars and full berthas are especially becoming to their little, slim figures. The fashion writer in the New York Sun tells that fine nainsooks, cashmeres and thin, light colored silks, with rosebud patterns, are used for the little guimpe dresses worn by the little dames from 4 to 6 years old, and lace embroidery and narrow velvet ribbon and tiny braid are used for trimming on the waists, while the skirts are quite plain, with a broad hem. Camel’s hair, serge, quaint plaids, and all sorts of wool fabrics, including the rough bonclo goods, plain or flecked with color, which are worn so much by

HOW TO CARE FOR THE SKIN.

ENAMEL FINISH.

1 .

TWO PRETTY PARTY GOWNS, grown up fi 'ks, are fashionable for girls old enough to go to school. Made in the low cut, short sleeved style, and worn over a nainsook guimpe or a waist of cashmere or silk of a contrasting color, these dresses are very serviceable and stylish. But it is the party dresses which are most interesting at this season of the year, and for these there aro china silks plain and figured, crepe de chine, taffeta silks, crepons, Ixith silk and wool, in all the lovely shades. White erepo de chine or crepon over a color make very effective dresses, and these should be made high neck, gathered in at the belt and collar and trimmed simply with belt braces and neckband of satin ribbon the color of the lining. A pretty crepon dress for a little girl is finished with a wide lace collar and satin ribbon for neck and sash. Accordion plaited frocks have lost none of their well earned popularity, but for dancing nothing can ho prettier. And a very pretty gown of this kind is made of white crepe de chine, with a yoke of ivory white guipure lace and a trimming formed of straps and rosettes of cream satin ribbon. The sleeves, which aro very full on the shoulder, aro finished with lace cull's. Daily Itatli For 1 at n»<l Lean. An important proposition for both fat and loan, according to a writer in (rood Housekeeping, is to bathe daily. Ladies troubled with obesity will lose weight, and thin ones will gain. No doubt this sounds like a paradox, hut it is capable of a rational and accurate explanation. A normal condition is neither fat nor lean. A body subjected to a regime of daily bathing will gain so much activity of the vital forces that an excessive formation of tissue is prevented in the fleshy woman. In the case of the lean ono the general health will be improved, the nutrient functions quickened and the body vitalized, producing an elastic roundness very pleasing to the eye. Cranberry J«>Uy. A desirable way to serve cranberry where a decorative dish is desired is in the form of a jelly. The ingredients are 1 quarts of berries, a pint of water and three-fourths pint of sugar. Boil the berries ten minutes, strain out seeds through a colander, add sugar and bring to a boil. Servo with powdered sugar. Veal Chop* a la MayonnaitM*. Cut 8 veal chops in a flat saucepan, moisten them with their height of stock, add a little salt, pepper and nutmeg and simmer gently for an hour, after which take them out and then put them on the ice until very cold. Serve them in a circle with whatever jelly remains and iu the center a sauce mayonnaise. Fanli Ion Not oh. All sorts of ruffs, made of feathers, velvet, satin and chiffon, aro worn for day and evening wear as a pretty finish for the neck, and, whatever the material, rosettes of lace or ribbon or bunches of violets are a conspicuons part of the make up. A deep maroon is a very favorite color for street gowns. The Eton jacket effect is very popular, and when the jacket itself is not made of fur or velvet the material of the costume is cut in precisely the same lines. Popular as is washing silk for underwear, fine cambric and longcloth retain tbeir place in popular favor. The ball gowns have as little sleeve as is possible. Everything, even the hats and toques, has the godet fullness. The English walking bat and the turban, heavily trimmed with velvet, are again iu fashion this winter. There does not seem to be any positive law as to just where on the head the hat should bo worn. Jet bonnets seem destined never to go •>ut of fashion. They are every bit as nnwilsr this winter as ever.

The Hath Im Valuable, but There Are Many Neoesnary Accessories. While all baths are good for the skin, i except iu certain peculiar cases, the hot bath has advantages over the cold in that it opens the pores and thus encourages the escape of matter that would otherwise clog the system and impair the general health. When only one bath a day is possible, if that must be cold, it should be preceded by a sponging from head to ftxit in warm water. Valuable accompaniments to the bath i are the bags of bran, oatmeal or almond j meal sold by druggists. A little borax ! or ammonia added to the water is excellent for people with greasy skins. A j bathing glove of Turkish toweling may be used by those who prefer this to a ] sponge or wash cloth. Hard rubbipg with a rough towel after the bath assists the action of the skiu. The woman who desires a good complexion must wash her face carefully. If soap is used, it must be of the best, and every particle of it must be riused off before drying the face. Use the hands or a soft cloth or sponge, and except in rare cases, do not wash the face more than once a day. Water alone will not thoroughly I cleanse the skin. If the face is gently but thoroughly rubbed with cold cream and then wiped off with a flannel, the grime that will be coaxed from the pores will give mute evidence to the truth of the statement. This process should bo gone through at least once a week. In every city there are establishments for facial steaming and massage, where lietter results are possible than can be obtained at home. Still, even homo treatment is preferable to neglect, and if a woman possesses a face steamer she can manage very well. Lacking this she must improvise a steamer. There are two ways of doing this at home. One way is to set a teakettle of boiling water over a strong alcohol lamp and then insert a wide mouthed funnel in the spout. As the water boils the steam will pour from the funnel into the patient’s face. She should cover her head with a suiibonnet shaped construction of stiff brown paper. Another way of steaming is to hold the face above a basin of Ixiiling water, throwing over the head a largo towel that will hang down on all sides and prevent the escape of the steam. With either method i lie steaming must hi' kept up until the pores aro opened mid the perspiration flows freely. How to Freshen Figs. Figs, when by long storage have become hard and withered, may lx“ freshened without impairing their flavor and rendered quite fit for table use by following these simple directions Steep the dry figs for a few minutes iu tepid water, wash them well and dry them in a towel. Place in a pan and heat carefully in a slow oven. Remove, roll in powdered sugar and arrange on a sieve to dry. How to Make a Holl's IIoiiHe. Take a wooden box about 3 feet long and 1 feet wide. This will cost a quarter of a dollar. Put the lid on hinges and stand l ho box on end. the lid forming the doororside of the house that can ho set wide open. Fit in two shelves for floors and cut four holes fur windows on each floor. Fill these in with window glass found around the house. Paint the outside of the house with a warm yellow with white around the windows. Cover the walls with old blue cartridge paper with a frieze of pale yellow roses and olive pattern on the second story. Samples of wallpaper are often given away by dealers and would therefore cost nothing. If paper must be bought, use instead pale tinted silesia or cambric with a little frill at the top. Fasten to the wall with tacks. Add little curtains of lace or cheesecloth and make rugs or carpets of bits of old carpets or heavy cloth. How to C'aro For a Lamp. Oil in a lamp should not be allowed to get down to less than one-half the depth of the reservoir. The wick should be soft and completely fill the space for it,but without crowding. A lamp should be neither suddenly cooled nor exposed to the draft. In extinguishing the flame the wick should first be turned far down and then a sharp, quick puff blown across and not straight down upon the

flame.

How to Avoid Cold*. There is ono simple way of avoiding colds—keep your mouth shut when ont of doors. The man or woman who comes out of a close room, especially late at night, and breathes through the month will either catch a bad cold or irritate the lungs sufficiently to cause annoyance and unpleasantness. If people would just keep their mouths shut and breathe through their noses, this difficulty and danger would be avoided. Chills are often the result of people talking freely while ont of doors just after leaving a poorly ventilated room. It is during youth that the greater number of mankind contract habits of inflammation whicli make their whole lives a tissue of disorders.

How to Prepare Floral Conflerves. Women can make dainty conserves of flowers that are specially recommended as giving a dainty perfume to the breath ] and lips. They are made from violets, or | very highly perfumed roses, or carnation j pinks. Take half a pound of loaf sugar and moisten with rose water, melt the sugar slowly till it reaches the boiling point; have your violet or rose or carj nation petals ready and stir them quiek- ! ly in the liquid. Then pour the whole ; into shallow dishes or pans. How to Cook Cerealg. Cereals can be made palatable even to those who begin by disliking them if they are prepared properly. They should not be boiled simply in water, but in u mixture of equal parts of milk and water. They should not be stirred, for stirring makes them starchy, but cooked iu •» double boiler.

of the Mont DenJrable Agent. For Fre.liening Up OIU Furniture.

Euamel, which, owing to its hard surface, is sometimes called porcelain finish, may be bought ready mixed iu pint cans in white cream and a variety of delicate tints, and also iu certain rich shades of terra cotta, Indian red and other dark colors, though the light hues greatly predominate. Geueral directions accompany each can, ami if these are carefully followed failure will be impossible. in enameling even more than in varnishing it is necessary to allow each coat to become perfectly dry before ap-

plying the next.

The enamel sold in the small cans is quite expensive, but Decorator and Furnisher gives the assurance that a can will cover quite a largo surface if the wood is first “sized” with a primary coat of common paint. This provides a smooth, hard surface upon which to apply the enamel, and fewer coats will thus be required to produce a glossy fin-

ish.

When large surfaces are to be treated, and economy must be considered, a very good qualitv of enamel may bo prepared at borne, the necessary ingredients being pure zino white and varnish, both of the best quality. These must lie mixed until tlie proper consistency has been reached. It is impossible to give the exact quantities, as the varnish often varies in density, calling for more or less zinc white. When the varnish.** very thick and heavy, thin it with a little turpentine and then add the zinc white. The latter should bo a fine powder and should be sifted through a coarse net to exclude all lumps of gritty particloA Zino white already prepared with varnish for making tho porcelain finish may bo obtained in large cans, and many painters prefer to purchase it iu this way, sometimes finding it necessary to thin it by adding a small quantity of turpentine. A N**w French Skirt. The nc w Fn nch skirt is widi r at the bottom than those lately worn. The pattern consists of throe pieces—half of the front, one back gore, and tho elastic required to keep tho flutes in their place.

8KII1T FOR DOUBLE WIDTH CLOTH This model is designed especially for double width cloth. The skirt is cut with tho waist to tho selvage, care being used to place the rolled lino exactly on the crease of the cloth, as on this depends the hang of the skirt. The back is placed in a box plait to each gore. An Orange Custard. An orange custard is a simple pudding which is also delicate and appetiz ing. Beat 4 eggs thoroughly, add the grated rind of an orange, 6 tublespoonfuls of sugar, half a toaspoouful of salt and 1 'a pints of milk. Butter small stone or tin pudding molds holding about 1'.j gills and sprinkle a little sugar in each one. Pour the custard into these, set them in a pan of lukewarm water and bake in a moderate oveu until firm in tho center. They should be eaten cold and aro very nice without a sauce, but a soft custard flavored with a little good sherry poured over them is a great addition.

Polinh For Wood Floors. An authority on such matters says that for the floor the best possible finish is a priming of raw linseed oil and Ja pan driers, rubbed off after an hour or so, and left to dry. Then shellac and polish with a wax finish, which is wax dissolved in boiling turpentine spirit* and can be bought ready for use. The hall floor will he required to withstand considerable wear, and nothing can excel wax for this purpose. When necessary, any strong pair of arms is capable of renewing the polish.

DelicimiH Apple DeHHert. Cover the bottom of a baking dish with pieces of stale cake dipped in milk. Pare, core and slice several tart apples and spread over the cake, sprinkle with half a cup of sugar and a little nutmeg and bake in a moderate oven till the apples are tender. Tako out, heap the top with white of an egg beaten to a froth, sweetened and flavored with vanilla. Set in tho oven to brown lightly. Serve cold with cream, whipped or plain. IloiiMeliold Hint*. Clean glass globes by soaking first in hot suda water; then wash in lukewarm ammonia water and rinse in clear cold water. To keep salt from hardening in the salt cellars mix a little cornstarch or finely sifted flour with the salt. Tea tables continue to grow in favor and to multiply in design. A room furnished in cretonne, with mantel drape, portieres, bedspread, window hangings, etc., all alike, is dainty, and tho expense is comparatively smalL Castor oil is tho best thing with which to soften leather. Cranberries are nice made into dumplings and steamed or baked like apple dumplings. In embroidering doilies a favorite design is a wreath and bowknot or a ribbon and knot, with scattered flowers or a basket o« blossoms.
