WOMAN AND HOME.

THE GREAT VIRTUE OF TOLERATION FASHION HAS LEARNED.

Ilixijeska'i Sympathy Broa|ht Down the Houm—Otrment* That Dnt| the Life Out of Woman—A Girl Tlx** Wasn't

Afraid of Rattlesnakes.

The moct striking aa well as tbe most admirable characteristic of our present fashions is their variety, tbe wide range of choice tbey offer to those who desire to be fashion-/ ably dressed, and at the same time to wear a costumo that shall be adapted to any special peculiarities of face or figure. The time is not very far back when, at the beginning of a season, fashion would promulgate one Iron law for olL If the mandate read that bonnets should be small and skirts plain, the largest and homelieit face must be surmounted by a tiny construction of straw or velvet, and the figure, no matter bow tall and attenuated, must be clothed with long severe folds, guiltless of aught in the way of ruffle, flounce or trimming. Any departure from these rules caused the daring innovator to assume an outre appearance. If crinoline worn, it seemed almost immodest to appear abroad in a toilet that allowed tbe motion of tbe lower limbs to be seen in walking a broad brimmed hat, when the round turban was in vogue, would cause the heads of the passers by to turn. Altogether, so narrow and stringent were the laws that the announcement that this or that was "the fash ion'1 (not fashionable, or a favorite style, but the fashion) settled at once tbe proper garb to be worn, and made its adoption imperative by all who desired to avoid being conspicuous or eccentric.

Of late all this has changed, and greatly to the advantage and satisfaction of many, who, previously forced to follow fashion blindly, lest by failing to do they should attract on amount of unpleasant attention, now themselves able to rule their toilettes in harmony with their own ideas of taste, and tbe special characteristics of face and figure with which they have been endowed. It is no longer necessary for-the tall Juno like woman to wear any number of ruffles and flounces and oversklrts, lest their absence should make her unpleasantly con •picuous in society nor need the thin, lank spinster whose bones are obtrusive abandon her becoming frills and furbelows because such voluminous draperies are quite "out of style." Fashion has learned the great virtue of toleration. The simple and obvious fact which sho has ignored so long, that so greatly do women vary in face, in figure, in coloring, expression, movement, that no one style of dresB can bo suitable to more than a certain number, and that to force tbe samo manner of costume upon all is to attire many unbecomingly and to make some appear positively grotesque, has at last been impressed upon ber. She has abandoned her tyranny, and in widening her domain and liberty of choice therein she has court benefits upon all womankind, which they cannot appreciate too highly or be too grateful for.

It is possible today as it has never been before to acoompliah that adaptation and individualizing of costume that is, and ought to bo, the principal and most important secret of dressing well. Every woman should realize that her neighbor's coetuxne is no rnoro likely to be suitable and adapted to herself in material and design than it is in fit Her dress is apart of herself it is no extraneous tiling like a bathing suit, or the oilskin covering she must adopt in order to pass under tbo falls at Niagara, a thing of a moment, to be thrown aside after a transient purpose is served it is something she can never appear in public without, something that people will always associate with her in their minds, will judge her by form their opinions of her according as it is well or ill chosen.

This is as it should be. Individuality in dressing is as eminently desirable as individuality in any otbar form. Just as a poet would soorn the idea of writing verses quite In the style of some one else, or a painter be horrified if told that bis technique was precisely like that of So-and-so, so ought an intelligent woman to bo shocked at the discovery that soma one else's gown would be quite as suitable and beoomlng as her own that she could, without detriment to her looks or loss of attraction, array herself upon occasion in one of her neighbor's oostumce.—Harper's Basar.

What Drags the Life Oaf. of a Woman. Those heavy skirts, varying in number from three to seven or more, all suspended from tho waist and pulling down upon the hips, are enough to drag the life out of a Hercules. A strong man would not endure for a single day ono-tenth of the discomfort which fashionable woman suffers every day of her life. It is melees tor woman to think of rising above her present level while she is chained down by the burdens imposed by heavy, trailing skirts.

The unnecessary and Injurious weight occasioned by superfluous length and number of skirts Is greatly Increased by the addition upon tbe outer garment at an indefinite number of Bounces, folds, heavy overaktrts and Tariou* other useless accessories.

But the evils and Inconveniences above referred to are not the worst which result from the wearing of so great a weight of clothing as is customary among fashionable people. The most serious consequences are those which are suffered by the delicate Internal organs. Tbe many heavy skirts and nndergarments which are hung about the waist with no support from above, drag down the organs of the abdomen, and after a time the slender ligaments which hold them in place give way and various kinds of displacements and other derangements oocur. Tbo tightness with which the garments are drawn at tho wafci% greatly tecroaseatheinJury. I

The custom of weiring the pantaloons battoned tightly at the top and sustained by the hip* produced so mud) disease, even among the hardy tokliersof the Russian army, that a law was ettacted making the wearing of suspenders axnpuleory.

A Plucky Woman.

Yesterday afternoon a young lady employed as a domestic at the residence of Jasper Taylor, in the Belmont Addition, was hanging out some clothes on a line in the rear of tbe house, when she was suddenly startled by tbe sight of an enormous rattlesnake just nndfmM'th ber skirts. Tbe serpent was at rest in a coiled form, with the rattle slightly erected from tbe center of tbe coil. It was not untO the lady, realizing her danger, stepped back a few paces and threw down the clothes she was hanging that the reptile became irritated and gave the signal of danger by a vicious shake of its rattle.

There ana few, if any, of our lady readers who would not then and there have accepted the serpent's warning and sought safety in tbe bouse away from the snake so much dreaded for its deadly venom. But not so with our heroine. She immediately grasped apiece of' scantling and prepared to battle with one of the moot formidable reptiles in existence.

Upon her first approach the enemy darted from its coil and spread' its entire length toward the lady, but was short of its deadly aim. She struck her adversary a stunning blow with the stick, and was in the act of following tbe same with another more effective than the first, when the sudden appearance of another rattler, rather larger than the one she was about to dispatch, caused a change in the tactics which she intended pursuing. Her attention was then directed to enemy No. 2. Gathering her skirts close around her form, the lady made a dash at No. 2, and was fast annihilating that reptile when No. 1, having had a resting spell, during which it regained some of its lost vitality, came to tbe rescue of No. 2. The lady then gave each of the serpents alternate blows with ber deadly weapon in quick succession until they both lay dead at her feet The fight continued for a space of ten minutes. The serpents were then hung upon the fence, by actual measurement No. 1 was found to be four and a half feet, while its companion, No. 2, was five and three-quar-ters feet in length. The rattles on the end of the tail on the one numbered five and to the other were appended six.—Fresno (Col.) Expositor.

A Girl's Toilet Article*.

A sensible girl will not keep a lot of cosmetics and drugs on ber toilet table, but there arc a few articles sho should always have in a convenient pluoe. She should have an array of glass stopped bottles containing aloohol, alum, camphor, borax, ammonia and glycerine or vaseline. A little camphor and water may bo used as a wash for the mouth and throat if the breath is not sweet Powdered alum applied to a fever sore will prevent it from becoming very unsightly and noticeable. Insect stings or eruptions on the •kin are removed by alcohol A few grains of alum in tepid water will relieve people whose hands perspire very freely, rendering them unpleasantly moist

A few drops of sulphuric acid in the water are also beneficial for this purpose, and are «iar» desirable for thoae whose feet perspire freely. We should always recommend care in tho use of scented soap in many oases the perfume is simply a cusguitie for poor quality. A good glycerine or hooey soap is always preferable. Of course, one may rely on scented soap from a high class manufacturer, but it costs more than it is worth. In addition to the soap for bathing, white castile should be kept tor washing the hair. Occasionally, a little borax or ammonia may be used for this purpose, but it Is usually too barsb in it* effect*.—Hall's Journal of Health.

Giving Children MedlcSae*

"Such a time as I have had to get it to its medicine," Is a wail with which mothers are constantly greeting physicians when their little ones are ill. And it is certainly the rule with children, ordinarily the most obedient, when tt comes to taking medIdjaa, however palatable it may bo, they prove uncontrollable unless forcer is used. Tbe tfe«lt is invariably the motherV. It Is clearly her duty from tbe first to exact of her child absolute obedience, and especially to intist that it take what is offered it from spoon or cup. When persuasion will not avail, the best way to make a child take medicine is this: Fines in the cheeks with tbe thumb and fore&iferof the left hand. Inserting the qwoa with the rigit hand. In this w«y fluids may be poured into the mouth without fear of their being spat out, or of the child "swallowing the wrong way." The practice of holding children fiat on tbeir backs, across the knees, forcing tbo mouth open, and after pouring in the medicine to ptacb their noee, f» a baa toei Not only aro they to samagli, but there is some danger of farcing tho medicine up tho tube wding from the throat to tho ear, in which event a serious hifiammatiou would, most likely, bo set up.—Boston ILsraid.

knew on the oilier side of the ship, hidden tbe great bulk that swam so majee* tically, there was a little toilsome steam tug, with a heart of fire and arms of iron, that was tugging it bravely on and I knew if tbe little At**"" tug untwined her arm and left tbe ship it would wallow and roll about, and drift hither and thither, and go off with the refluent tide, no man knows whither. And so I have known more than one gvoius, high decked, full freighted, full sailed, gay pennoned, but that for the bare, toiling arms, and brave warm beating heart of the faithful little wife that nestles close to him, so that no wind or wave could port them, would have gone down with the stream, and have been heard of no mora—O. W. Holmes.

Those Littl® Black Specks. Little black spots that sometimes come on the forehead and the nose are usaally the result of indigestion, but the best way to remove them is the simplest—do not try to take out too many at a time, and begin by steaming your face over a bowl of hot water then rub a little oil on the ones you intend to remove and press each one out with an old fashioned watch key this, because of its broad edge, is very much more desirable than tbe fingers, because the nails are very apt to scar the face. Put a little oil on afterwards and then the face will not be in tbe least bruised or red when you get up the next morning. What kind of oil Well, either good sweet oil or plain almond, while, if it agrees with your skin, vaseline may take the place of either. During the hot days, if your «Hn is inclined to feel dry, rub pure olive oil on it every night It is demanding it just as you ask for something so eat when you are hungry, and if the dry skin is not fed it will wrinkle and grow yellow in color.—Philadelphia Times. pi

*•, Fruit for Children,

The most natural diet for thoyoung, after tbe natural milk diet, is fruft and whole meal bread, with milk and water for drink. The desire for this samo mode of sustenance is often oontinued into after years, as if the resort to flesh were a forced and artificial feeding, which required a long and persistent habit to establish its permanency as a part of the system of everyday life. How strongly this preference taste for fruit over animal food prevails is shown by tbe simple fact of the retention of these foods in the mouth. Fruit is retained to be tasted and relished. Animal food, to use a common phrase, is bolted. There is a natural desire to retain the delicious fruit for full mastication there is no such desire, except in the trained gourmand, for the retention of animal substance.—Layman's Magazine.

'A Carpet Stretcher.

Tbe snow shovel has more uses than the one of shoveling out paths—no reference to the absurd custom of painting pansies on it and standing it up in a corner of tho parlor, either. Did the reader ever try to put down a thick and stiff carpet, and after an hour or two of stretching and pulling, find that the wrinkles were the most conspicuous part of it? Dont get discouraged and say that you will never try to put one down again, but next time try a snow shovel. It has nothing to catch and scar the carpet—an objection that is sometimes made to carpet stretchers, but it works capitally. One person to push and hold this, and another to drive the tacks, and the work is done in almost no time, and done satisfactorily.—Lewiston Journal.

English Factory Girl's Hat.

Mfam Guiuness, In "Night and Day," writes about the dress of English faotocy girls. She says that the one article upon which they contrive to spend money, however poor they may be, is their bat It is indispensable that the hat in question be of very largo size a low, wide shape, with flapping brims, being desirable. This, when loaded with velvet or ribbon bows, and wreathed by as many long feathers of various colors (the more startlingly contrasted the better) as circumstances will permit, becomes an object of proud self ooogratulation to tbe owner. Flowers are sometimes used, but are not so fashionable as bright yellow, soar let or purple feathers. This has long been the ideal of tbe factory girl, and changes of fashion make little difference in it

WHAT SHALL WE WEAR?

FASHIONS IN DRESS FOR MEN. MEN AND CHILDREN.

Ont lloor Costumes for Men, Including Tennis and Blejrcle Suite—IClw Blaaer aad tbe TennU Sasb—Costume* Designed for Seaside Wear.

Each summer sport has a certain style of dress especially designed for it Tennis costumes for men, as well as for woman, are many of tfeem decidedly picturesque. A fad of tbe season is the tennis sash few men, which is depicted in the cut This consists of along strip of silk, afoot or more wide, and usually terminating in beautifully fringed ends. The sash encircles the waist of the player and is knotted with a flowing effect at the left hip.

TEN WIS SASH AND BLAZER.

The blacer is a conspicuous garment this nason, being decidedly striking as regards its stripes and richness of color. French tWnniJ with bright tinted stripes is a fabric much used in lasers. All sorts of combinations are displayed, and it is difficult to arrive at any conclusion as to the preferences of fashion. Alternate stripes of orange and black are exceedingly popular then there are pintr «nj white, white and black for those in mourning. The blazer being out sack shape permits of the greatest freedom of movement and at the same time displays the figure to advantage.

A cap to wear at tennis, much favored, is that known as the Eton shape, fitting the head closely. It may match the blaaer in stripe and color, or it may be of cream white flannel or of some fancy pattern of silk. White trousers are the sort most largely worn with blazers.

Bicycle suits are largely made in dark or gray oolors, and consist of a Norfolk ooat, with knee breeches to match in material and color. Ribbed stockings are affected with thin costume and tbe cap is flat and peaked.

Costume for the Sea Shore.

Numbered with many charming costumes designed for sea side wear is the one depicted in the cut It is of pale beige oolored nun's veiling. It is ornamented with a yoke, epaulets, cuffs and bands, in dark green open work embroidery laid on a beige oolored foundation. The belt which encircles the round waist is of moire ribbon.

Artlstio Ideas and Clever Contrhranoee in Decorating and Furnishing. Many ladies soem to affect decorations in Moorish coloring just now. A book shelf seen in a house celebrated for its new and artistic ideas was made in red and blue coloring, with a mass of red wool tassels depending. Decorator and Furnisher iells of another set of shelves faced with Arabian wood carving, the front of each shelf being different "fiie various enamels applied to woodwork are effective, especially if the shelves are filled with books or china alternately. For chambers or bedrooms book shelves may be covered with Pompadour or Dolly Yard en chintz, having floral bouquets at,Fjde intervals. xr' 't"s*

According to the same authority small corner cupboards, most moderately priced, either real or an imitation of Flemish carving, are now fashionable for fixing into the corners of boudoirs, studios and bedrooms, for hiding away bottles and other small things the wood is brown and unpolished. White wood corner cupboards are sold ready for enameling or amateur decorating.

A small room, dignified by its mistress with the name of library, has a floor covering of dork red matting, while close to the door is spread a white nig of Japanese goat skin. A set of low shelves, which aaswer the purpose of a book case, nearly qover ooo side of the room. They are only stained, and their edges trimmed with pinked out leather and brass headed nails, but they are quite as useful as solid wood and look nearly as well

A simple but very useful little oontrivance in a room where space is valuable is a hinged shelf of polished wood, fitted to tbe sills of each window. These hang against the wall, and when a person wants a specially good light or exclusive territory for some piece of work, they are lifted, braced in plaoe and prove a decided convenience.

Dainty White Bed Spreads.

Tbe latest in bed spreads is white satin with arabesques stamped all over the surface, or else a vine, both to be done in outline stitch with gold oolored silk. A white satin bolster should have tbe initials of the owner similarly worked. Bed spreads are also made in other pale colors, but white or pale green are prettiest Tbe latter give a cool appearanoe. Ooverlids are also made of fine linen, with vine in outline stitch around the edge and a medallion in the center. They are all beautiful, and may be varied to suit the owner.

Excellent White Cake.

Three cups of sugar, one ooffee cup of butter, one cup of sweet milk, one cup of cornstarch, three cups of flour, one small teaspoonful of soda, two teaspooafuls of cream tartar and the whites of twelve eggs. Flavor with lemon or almond extract Cream tbe sugar and butter add the cornstarch, which has previously been moistened with half tho milk dissolve the soda in tbe other half of the milk, then odd to tbe mixture then add the flour and cream of tartar, sifted together, and lastly the eggs beaten to a stiff froth.

Tea Ioe Cream for Garden Parties. A favorite refreshment offered at English garden parties is ioe cream made with tea. Coffee and chocolate afford agreeable variations of the same recipe, and are preferred by some people. For family use one-fourth the quantities in the following recipe suffices: One pint of strong green tea, a pound of granulated sugar, two quarts of rich milk, a pint and a half of cream. Simmer for a minute without stirring, but swinging the saucepan gently back and forth. Freeee in the usual way.

Raspberry Jelly Deeaert.

Three pints of ripe raspberries, a box of gelatine, a pint of sugar, one pint of boiling water, half a pint of cold water and tbe juice of a lemon. Soak tbe gelatine for two hours in the cold water. Mash tbe berries with the sugar and let them stand two hours. Pour tbe boiling water on the fruit and sugar. Prees tbe juice from tbe berries and add it and tbe lemon Juioe to tbe dissolved gelatine. Strain through a napkin, pour into molds and harden.
