The Fashions.

TAXSBIXS The leading modistes have returned from Paris, and hare displayed at their openings the designs. It is the general remark that novelties this year are-confined to fabrics and colors rather than to styles. At some of the large tenses the eye is startled by die high Madras colors with thir vivid yellow and red; trot at the smaller, exclusive establishments very few of these gay plaids are seen. Instead of these are limousine stripes with a few lines of color on cream, brown, or gray grounds, or else those invisible brown or gray plaids already described, or perhaps green or blue or violet shades appear in the plaid. Modistes who imported plaid Lousine silks last spring in advance of the present fancy for than are now making overdresses of damask or clouded silks, or of the amurefigured wools, or summer limousines; if they use the plaid Louisines they choose those with rich bars, such as black on ecru grounds, brown on cream-color, or navyblue on gray.

Among the most pleasing dresses for visiting, church and carriage toilets are those of French gray or drab gros grain combined with softer silk of the same shade figured all otot in arabesque designs. The gros grain skirt has pleatings headed by shirred puffs, and the sleeves are of the same gros grain. The overskirt of the arabesque silk has a deep apron draped very /till near the foot of the dress and edged with very rich fringe. The basque is of simple design. Such dresses are made without jackets, as they are so light that they cannot be worn on days cool enough to require wraps. They cost from $250 to $275. Simpler costumes entirely of colored silk, and also of black silk, are made with short, loose, jaunty sacks, quite short behind and with deep-pointed or square fronts. These are made to wear over the basque that is worn is the house. The trimming is usually a knife-pleating with rich crimped fringe below. The Byron collar of many fine pleats of the silk is considered a stylish feature for these jackets. - Open English embroidery on black silk is not new this season, but promises to find greater favor than when first introduced. It is preferred for wide flounces, for narrow ruffles to edge flounces, and also for sleeveless basques, aprons, and sashes. When associated with rich gros grain of its own shade, or with handsome grenadine, it makes very effective garniture. BLACK GRENADINE DREBSEB. The newest and richest black grenadine dresses are made of the open, squaremeshed grenadines resembling Mexicaine, or of plaids alternately thick and thin, or else they are barred or lined with velvet. Those dresses intended for the house only have the skirt trimmed to simulate a tablier, but no separate apron. The foundation of the skirt is silk, and for this purpose the substantial glossy taffeta silk is used. The grenadine forms a flounce around the bottom, and is then elaborately draped on the silk; in many cases the front, back and sides have each an arrangement of their own. The flounce at the bottom may be either a deep bias-gathered flounce, shirred at the top, and edged with knife-pleating, or else there are many rows of knifepleating placed to overlap each other and headed by a shirred puff. On some dresses the knife-pleating extends up the entire back breadth; in others it is arranged in pyramidal form on the bottom of each breadth; while still others have three rows of the finest crimped pleating sewed on a gathered flounce. On the upper part of the skirt two breadths are shirred to represent an apron, and these have each a narrow ruffle meeting in the front; the back is then held in two large puffs with ends. Another tablier is formed of many crosswise folds of grenadine, which may be turned up or down, while others have reversed pleating. The basque is shaped fancifully and trimmed down the back and front with shirring or pleating to correspond with the skirt. The long-hooped bows and the sash-loops in the skirt are made of gros grain laid in fine knifepleating and pressed flatly. The coat sleeves are formed of folds of grenadine placed across from seam to seam, or else soft puffs separated by rows of shirring; instead of regular cuffs, pleating, a ruffle, and lace trim the wrists; it is the exception for imported dresses to have plain sleeves.

Grenadine suits that may be worn in the street as well as in the house are far more simply made. They are provided witlr deep aprons, over-skirts with bouffant back drapery, plain cuirass basques, and simply-trimmed skirts, like those described for silk and wool suits. The substantial canvas grenadines so long in favor will still be used for these simple costumes. Sometimes they form the entire suit, but in many cases they have basques and aprons of more fancifully plaided grenadine. Heavy crimped tape fringes trim street suits of grenadine. There are also pretty sleeveless jackets and tabliers formed of lengthwise insertions of yak, thread or beaded guipure, with grenadine between. These may be worn over silks or grenadines, just as the wearer chooses. PONGEE DRESSES. The buff, ecru and brown pongee dresses, so much in favor last summer, are again imported. They are trimmed with insertion of silk guipure of their own shade and with lace of corresponding pattern. The skirt and sleeves are of dark chestnut brown silk. The pongee overskirt has a tablier front that represents three aprons by having three bands of insertion outlining them. The jacket, with short back and long front, is composed of lengthwise rows of insertion alternating with the ecru pongee. Ladies of quiet tastes prefer these plain pdUgees to plaids or figured silks. morning dresses. Pale blue and rose cashmeres are twHa into elaborate princesse dresses for house apd morning wear. In some models the front is of pale blue silk, with a jabot its entire length made of white thread lace. The back of the dress is of cashmere, made in Gabrielle fashion, with the upper part of the skirt in panier puffs, while the lower part has knife-pleatings of silk in which white lace is laid. A second, of pale blue, has pyramids of knife-pleating made of blue and white striped silk, laid in pleats that show the blue on top with white beneath as a sort of facing.

Tbe prettiest imported dresses of washing goods are made of fine French cambrics that represent the checks and plaids of Scotch ginghams. Sometimes two colors are used in these. Thus a dress of blue and white cambric of small, irregular checks has a vert, sleeves, and inside ruffles of pink-checked cambric. There are first scalloped blue ruffles needleworked on each edge, and just beneath these, as if lining them, are the pink ruffles. This makes h pretty dress for country use. Blue and brown are put together in the same way* also blue and buff, or buff with brown. For brunettes are checked cambrics combining rttoe, black and white. FRINGES AND MARABOUT TRIMMING. The fringes so fashionably used for trimming silk sacques and costumes are made of silk braid or tape, crimped, or else merely tied in loops, from which depend balls or tassels of sewing silk. Elaborate fringes, made of clusters of the crimp braid resting on a thick silk fringe, cost as high as $4.25 a yard. The newest design has loops of half-inch braid not crimped, but holding tassels. This costs $3.75. The price of plain tape fringe of ordinary width is $1.25; light fringes for grenadine are made of very narrow tape well crimped, and cost only 00 cents a yard. The novelty of the season for trimming silks is called the marabout ruche. This is a thick band of crimped tape-ends, resembling feathers in effect. It costs from $1.75 to $3.25, according to width. It is most stylish when made entirely of the braid, but there are some very pretty ruches made partly of the braid and pfertly of sewing silk; these resemble old-fash-ioned moss trimmings.— Harper's Bator,

The Boy on Moving Day.

One of the most disastrous elements in a moving Is a small boy with an aspiring disposition. If he carries anything, it must be a chair, which he takes on his head with the back at the front, so as to prevent him from seeing where he is going, and with the erect legs in range of the chandelier and upper door casings. Thus equipped, he strikes a military step, improvising’ his mouth into a trumpet, and starts out In less than a quarter of an hour he has that chair safely on the cart where it is not wanted, and is hurrying back after another. Before the carman has returned for the second load, the one boy has developed into eight, each boy with a chair, each boy under feet and each boy making as much noise as a planing-mill on a damp day. If a boy cannot get a chair to carry he wants two bed-posts. He wants two so he can carry one under each arm. Then he starts down-stairs. First the posts cross each other at the front and nearly throw him down, then they cross at the back and the front ends fly off at a tangent, one of them digging into the calcfanined wall and the other entangling in the banisters. But he won’t let one of them go, but hangs on to both with exasperating obstinacy. In the meantime the carman, who is working by the load &nd not by the day, is waiting at the loot of the stairs, and wishing that he had that boy back of the Rocky Mountains for about fifteen minutes; and the anxious father, with a straw-bed in his arms and his eyes fall of dust, is at thread of the stairs waiting to come down, and vociferating at the top of his voice, until the dust from the tick gets into his throat and precipitates him into a violent fit of conghing. By the time the third load is on the way the novelty of helping carry furniture is worn off to the boy, and be and his companions are firing rubbish from the garret at each other, or fooling with the horse just as some heavy object is being lifted into the cart. The best plan for a moving family that has a boy is to get him a half bushel of frozen potatoes to throw, and set him out in the suburbs until the affair is over. —Danbury News.

Sure Remedy for Bots.

Thb Department of Agriculture pub lishes the following experiments which a gentleman from Georgia tried and found effective in dispelling that serious trouble in horses. About thirty years ago a friend lost by bots a very fine horse. He took from the stomach of the dead horse about a gill of bots and brought them to my office to experiment upon. He made preparations of every remedy he had heard of and put some of them into each. Most had no effect, a few affected them slightly, but sage tea more than anything else; that silled them in fifteen hours. He concluded he would kill them by putting them in nitric acid, but it had no more effect on them than water; the third day they were as lively as when put in. A bunch of tansy was growing by my office. He took a handful of that, bruised it, added a little water, squeezed out the juice and put some in. They were dead in one minute. Since then I have had it given to every horse I have seen affected with bots and have never known it to fail of giving entire relief. My friend had another horse affected with bots several years later. He gave him the tansy in the morning and a dose of salts in the evening; the next morning he took up from the excretions three half-pints of bots. If there’s anything that commends the ordinary tramp to one’s sympathy it’s his invariable modesty. One rapped at a kitchen door near Springfield, Mass., recently, and mildly asked if there was any cider in the house. The lady gave him a drink, and he then remarked that some cake “ wouldn’t go bad at all.” This also being furnished he called for a couple of cigars, and getting them, too, lit one, put the other in his pocket and walked off, picking up en passant a new pair of woolen stockings that happened to be in'his reach. Gbken Tomato Pickles.—One peck of fresh green tomatoes sliced; sprinkle salt over them, let them stand one night, drain well, put in a kettle with cider or vinegar and water and scald twenty minutes; skim out and drain, throw out the vinegar and water, add one ounce each of pepper, allspice and doves, onefourth pound of mustard seed, one pound of sugar; simmer all day on the back of the stove,

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

A little alum dissolved in store polish adds very much to its efficacy. Fob CoenvENEss or Children.—The blossoms of the common elder made into a tea and sweetened a little. A few tablespoonfuls in the course of twentyfour tears will soon prove a cure.— ExFarmbr’b Podding. —One cup of pork chopped fine, one-half cup of molasses, one-half cup of sugar, one cup of raisins, one cup sour milk, one teaspoonful of soda, and spice to taste. Steam three hours. , To remove starch or rust from flatirons, have a piece of yellow beeswax tied in a coarse cloth. When the iron is almost hot enough to use, but not quite, rub it quickly with the beeswax and then with a clean, coarse doth. Light Cake. —One egg, one cup of sugar, one-half cup of sweet milk, one and one-half cups of flour, one tablespoonful of butter, one teaspoonful of cream of tartar and one-half teaspoonful of soda. Very nice for tea. Spiced Currants. —Five pounds of ripe currants, four pounds of brown sugar, one pint of vinegar, one tablespoonful eaqh of allspice and eloves, and a little nutmeg; boil one boar or until quite thick. To be eaten with meat. As some have inquired about canning strawberries, I will give my recipe: I fill the cans with berries and then dissolve the sugar in a little water and pour it in, not filling them quite full, then put them in a kettle of cold water and let them boil fifteen;or twenty minutes. After I take them from the kettle I fill them up with boiling sweetened water and then screw the tops on and let them stand until cold and then screw them up again. I have no trouble with mine and they are very good when I open them.— Cor. Household.

Tea Cake.— Take one pound of flour, one pound of sugar, three-fourths of a pound of butter and ten eggs; cream the flour and batter together, beat the eggs light, the yolks and whites separately, leaving out the whites of two eggs; mix and beat well. Take one-third of the mixture and pnt it in a square pan and bake it plain; take another third and mix with it slips of citron and bake in a square pan; with the remaining third put French currants well washed, dried and rolled in flour, and bake as above; take a cup of sugar to the whites you reserved and make an icing for your cakes, which spread on while warm, and mark into squares or diamonds with a knife to make it cut better.' This will make two cake-baskets full for tea-drinking.

A Second Father Matthew.— Who is there that does not respect the memory of Father Matthew, the great champion of temperance? Innumerable societies bear his honored same; but there is one man who has struck a more sure death-blow to intemperance, and that man is Dr. J. Walker, an old California physician, who has discovered in nature’s “meek and lowly herbs” a medicinal “ tonic” and gentle stimulant that completely takes the place of the fashionable alcoholic poisons called “tonics,” so popular as a comiffomise between strong drink and cold water, and does away with the mania for drink, and in reality cultivates an involuntary disgust for the same. It even does more: It acts upon the entire physical system, purifies the blood, ana produces hale, hardy health. The discoverer of this great medicinal stimulant is surely entitled to the thanks of a whole nation, and it is not extravagant to entitle him “ a second Father Matthew.” 83 “Horsb-Mbh,” and others who pretend to know, say that the following directions had better be observed in using Sheridan's Cavalry Condition Powders: Give a horse a tablespoonful every night for a week; the same every other night for four or six nights; the same fora milch cow and twice as much fo * “ ox. The addition of a little fine salt will be an advantage. For pickling or table use Prussing’g White Wjne vinegar is unrivaled. Try it,
