It is a most convenient toilet article. It is anew fad with Washington girls to wear many little s&tchet-bags fastened to ribbons of various colors hanging from their throats. The bags are much larger than an ordinary thimble and suspended byy narrow ribbons, cat at different lengths and bowed with many loose ends just under the chin. They are to represent meal-sacks and look like camphor-bags designed to keep off the measles and other diseases, by some supposed to fear that fragrant drug. They do not, however, contain camphor. It is proper that they should be made from bits of silk or satin taken from young men’s ties. Each bag is supposed to represent one admirer, and, like Scalps, numbers eount to build up the pride of the wearer. They are stuffed with cotton and it is considered nice to have them each scented with the peculiar perfume which is most favored by the young man from whose tie it is made. Young men, often from economical motives, send scraps of old ties to be used for this purpose, but it is much more a matter of satisfaction for the young lady to know that her influence is so great that she can cut the silken ends from off his neck without protest. —Philadelphia Ledger. How to make Apple Butter, —The first step is to boil down the cider. If there is no set caldron, large kettles are hung upon an extemporized wooden crane. In these new cider is concentrated by boiling. For the best product a barrel of cider is boiled down to eight gallons. While the cider is being boiled others prepare the apples by paring and coring or by quartering and removing the cores. Good street apples, those which will readily cook tender, are chosen. Two and a half to three bushels of apples are required for the barrel of cider, after it has been concentrated, and the stirring, with a wooden stirrer (hickory preferred), must be continuous to prevent scorching. The thick jellylike consistency shows when the boiling is sufficient. When the sauce is removed from the fire many add cinnamon and allspice. The sauce is to be transferred, while yet hot, to the vessel in which it is to be kept; these should be wooden kegs or barrels or stoneware jars. Apple butter is sometimes made without cider, using molasses and water instead. When properly made it is a most excellent preserve and vastly more healthful than that which is cloying from an excess of sugar.
