WOMAN AND HOME.

WNNER PARTY ETIQUETTE ACCORDING TO THE ENGLISH IDEA.

A. Www

Word* to Wage Workiuj Glrl»—A Good Womu Died »tl«ct«d—Coupleta and Motto**—Hast RmI th« Brats—How the Work of Woman Could B« UfhtcaML Young housekeepers and ladies who hav« fcsen living in retired districts where little jompany is kept are frequently asking questions on thi* subject, therefore we will take the first of the questions:

How long before the dinner party should an invitation be sent outf The period most iu favor is from ten days to a fortnight, and sometimes three weeks, if for a large and ceremonious dinner.

Cards printed for filling in may be purchased, or formal or friendly notes of invitation may be sent, according to the degree of Intimacy with those to be invited. The day, the date and the hour at which guests are expected shoe Id be mentioned. Seven, halfpast 7 and 8 o'clock are the times usually named. Invitations to dinner are sent out in the name of both host and hostess, and should be accepted or declined within two days, if possible.

Dinner invitations and replies to them can be left by oneself, sent by a servant, or sent through the post. If sent by hand they are frequently replied to while the messenger waits. The reason why those invited should be scrupulously careful to reply at one* is that other invitations may be sent out to fill the places of those who decline.

Having aooepted, the guests should be punctual, the hostess, in most instances, orders dinner to be served a quarter of an hour after the time of invitation.

If the host*** knows that some of her guests are unpunctual, it is safer to give the invitation for a half hour before the time fixed for dinner and it is well to make a rule of not waiting longer than a half hoer after the time named in the invitation, as viands are apt to suffer if punctuality is not observed.

Brlllat 8avarki writes: "It is a breach oX poUteneas towards these guests who are punctual when they are kept long waiting for one who is late."

When guests arrive the gentlemen leave their hats and coats in the hall, or in a room set apart for the purpose. Ladies, if coming truco a distance, should be asked if they wish to be shown into a bedroom. If near neighbors, they would leave a wrap in the hall or in the care of a snrvant. It is not fashionable for gentlemen to wear gloves on entering the drawing room on the occasion of a dinner. A lady wears gloves until seated at dinner, when she removes them. The host and hostess receive their guests in the drawing room, and at small, informal parties introduce guests to each othar, unless they know them to be already acquainted. The host intimates to each gentleman the lady he should take down to dinner, and leads the way to the dining room with the lady to whom the most deference should be shown, whether through her age or her higher social standing. If there are fewer gentlemen than ladies, the host takes two ladies Id to dinner, and places one on his right, the other on his left hand. The gentleman always offers his right arm to the lady. Sometimes name oards are put on the table, and the guests take their places in accordance with them if there is a liyge party it is the best arrangement If only a small number of guests, tho host, after seeing the lady he brings in seatfed at his right hand, stands and indicates where other guests are to sit. The hostess enters last with the gentleman of highest rank, or to whom most deference should be shown,

Eirovidod

ho is not a relative, when this rule in alxjyatico, so that greater attention should he given to friends or acquaintances. Tho same rule applies to the lady whom the host takes in to dinner.

The placing of congenial- persons side by side should bo as much a matter of consideration for tho host and hostess at dinner as the arrangement of who shall go in together. It is not considered necessary for tho gentleman direct his conversation exclusively to the lady he takes in, though it would, of cours»\ tho aim of a well bred man to be attentive to her if ho failed in this it would not be polite to his host.

Tho success of a dinner often depends on the tact of ho^ios t, and hostess in making all their plans lieforehand. To those who seldom givt dinners, let ns give tho following advice both host and hostess: On no account (ipit':n to have the least anxiety about how tiling tire going if tho cook or waiting maids make any mistake, and it must come under your notice, do not let it in the least disconcert you if it does, it is at once brought to the notice of your guests if it does not. they are quite likely not to observe it.

You will want to stop, oh! yes, kite of «mw Bat if you do you know your board bill will be overdue, and you will have to around with that fearful and wonderful amiability which fa the stamp and seal of the delinquent boardsr. And eome day, jost when you have the price of a new hat laid by, and promise yourself the early delight of a shopping tour, some remote neighbor from hcroa will suddenly swoop down on you, with a pleasant assurance that die has come for a city visit. You are glad to see some one from home, but cannot help wondering why somebody you really cared for could not have come in her stead, and watch her eat up your new hat with a feeling scarcely hospitable.

These area few of the minor trials that the outer world never guesses. There will comc' other and heavier ones, but aooe, I think, that cannot be conquered by the brave heart

There is a stimalus for ambition in the knowledge that by "breasting the blows of circumstance" then will surely come a time to "grasp the skirts of happy chance."

And if, after a worthy struggle for independence, the happier fate of gladdening some trns man's heart and home overtake* her, need her former work seem fruitless!

Nay, not so. ftor how can a woman better understand her husband's business endeavors thm by personal knowledge of business affairs herself?

Then godspeed her in any work she may do honorably, sai nai^ and with true dignity.—WfiUce Wharton in Chicago Tribune.

Couplets aad Mottoes,

The New York girl has developed a erase for couplets and mottoes, quotations aad bits of poetry, and is having them carved, engraved, embroidered and etched on everything she owns, soma having even (one so far as to have them set in needlework around the hems of their silk petticoats. is consUUrad the last and perfect proof of girlish friendship to present one* oonfldante and matinee chum with one of these petticoats embroidered with some civil little couplet with one's own fair hands. Miss Hecksherto best friend and maid of honor gave her a white silk petticoat to be married in, on which was worked Sir John Suckling's pretty conceit about the bride whose

Feet beneath her petticoat Like little mice peeped in aad out, As tho' they feared the Ught. Mrs. Thurlow Weed Barnes, daughter of John A. Morris, of Westchester, has carved at the head of her huge oak bedstead, "Sleep that knits up the raveled sleeve of care," and a pretty debutante has embroidered on the teacloth on her own little 5 o'clock tea table in her boudoir, where she regales her girl friends of an afternoon, amid the mase of delicate blossom, in white and gold silk:

I don't care what the daisies sajr, I know I'll be married eome fine day— aud her friends are perfectly sure she is correct in her conviction, despite any fortune that tho prophetic daisy petals might predict. Every girl who has an open fireplace in her room flutters over the leaves of Shakespeare and Chaucer, looking for some pretty legend to have painted acroes the top of it, and others run along verse in old English lettering around the frieze of their chamber. Their silver and ivory toilet articles have some little French phrase etched across them, and if you will look on the bottom of any bonboniere at the matinee you are likely to find some flattering or quaint phrase put there by the order of the discreet masculine donor.—New York Letter.

Rest the Brain.

Dr. Sara B. Chase advocates rest just as much as she advocates sleep, and thinks so much of sleep and rest that she believes that they can take the place of all stimulants. These are her views about rest:

Rest is a change from one employment to another from one condition of mind and body to another. The laboring man can find rest after his day's work is done in reading or writing or studying. The literary man finds his rest chiefly in outdoor exercise, or in any scene that will remove the thoughts of his literary work from his mind. Some people find rest where others would not. I can always find rest at the theatre, and when my mind becomes tired I always go there and eome away greatly refreshed. Best ie what the people of this country want so much. They give so little thought to it They study how to do everything except how to rest, and this want of rest is the cause of so much nervousness and, 1 think, of so much dyspepsia.

Some women would require more rest tlian some men, but a great many women seem to get aloug with a great deal less of rest tlian others do. The best rest for a lazy man, I should think, would be to work but in this country we don't have time to urge that much, because there are very few lazy ]arsons here,'and so we have to urge them to rest. A number of women come to me for whom I have to prescribe rest. This rest consists of all kinds of employment. A number of women tell me that they have really nothing to do. nothing to occupy their minds. Most of this kind are found in tho boarding mss^of this city. I advise many of them to study painting, but they tell me that they can't. Then I advise them to take up another subject and study it, in order to keep their mind employed but everything I tell them to do they tell me they ain't, that they have t»o taste for it—New York Mail and Express,

So great is the growth of population in the district round Keighley and Ha worth (to which the railway now extends) that the desolate loneliness of Haworth parsonage and the moors beyond, so graphically described by Charlotte Bronte and her biographer, can now be scarcely realized. X)n visiting the church and looking at the Bronte tablet, with its pathetic record of eight deaths, this lady got into conversation with one of the older generations of Haworth women, who, though at first (with true Yorkshire caution) a little suspicious of a stranger, eventually spoke freely and in the most affectionate way of Miss Bronte, mehtidtfmg as one of her chief characteristics the shyness and reserve of which the authoress herself was so painfully conscious. "She never ra&ed her eyes from her book when in church," said the good woman. How clearly the picture rises before our mental vision! The tiny but well proportioned figure her dress exquisitely neat, but perfectly pterin her face without pretension to beauty, but with the light of genius shining bright And clear through the expressive eyes. Here, in the old church—plain and unpretending like herself—where for so many years her prayers and praises went up to the God in whom she never lost her trust, we can most fitly take our leave of Charlotte Bronte. —Gentleman's Magazine.

'utmegs as a Medicine.

The medicinal qualities of nutmegs are worthy of a great deal of attention. They are fragrant iu odor, warm and grateful to the taste, and possess decided sedative, astringent and soporific properties. In the following afTecticns they will be found highly serviceable: Gastralgia (neuralgia of the stomach), cholera morbus, flatulent colic, dysentery, cholera infantum and infantile colic.

In all cases nutmegs may be prepared for administration in the following manner: Grato oue or more nutmegs into a very fine powder. For children, give one-sixth to one-third of a teaspoonful, accMv'ng to tinage, of this powder, mixed ..a a small quantity of milk. For adults, from a half to two teo^x onfuls may be in Hxsame way, ^-.oording to the ity of tucase. Every two hours is generally the best time to udimnil this rt im dy.

Insomnia (sl i«ifcnes is very often effectually relieved by one or two doses of nutmeg, when much stn nfr rmm shave signally failed.—LouLv Com it Journal

A Brief

lint

or Dishes from Wfclefc to Se

tae* the Thwta|Ma| Man. The Thanksgiving dinner, as i* has pursued its irresistible and seduotive oonrse until, from being sunpl^* a New England institution, it is now a national feast celebrated in almost every section, has also lost a little of 16 prfaaitiva character. The bfll of fan is no longer always the old time one, tart Is modified to utilize the native producBbos ot the region in which the feast Is held. Some sag' gestions as to an appropriate menu are, however, ventured upon. Boast turkey is, of coarse, an omnipresent item on every Thanksgiving bill of f*r& This is often flanked by chicken pie or a game pie, but a housekeeper with an eye to the future may substitute baked or boiled ham, which helps equally wall in giving a festive and bountiful look to the board, and, as no vary vigorous attack is usually made on the second meat did*, can be better utilized on subsequent occasions.

If the dinner is begun with a soup, which is a modern innovation, it should be cream of rice or something quite light. The list of vegetables, from which the cook will select three or fou of those known to be favorites in the household, includes mashed potatoes, baked sweet potatoes, onions, squash aud turnips. Cranberry sauoa and oelery are two items that go without saying, as do brown bread and white bread. Thanksgiving pudding is usually of the richest, either a plum or cabinet while the pies may be either, or all, of apple, pumpkin and mince, the latter usually considered indispensable. Cheese should be served with the pies. Apples, tints and raisins and strong, fragrant coffee finish off the formidable repast.

Bow to Brail Salt CodOsh

A tempting way to cook salt codfish occasionally as a pleasant change from the old methods is to broil it the same as fresh fish. First lay a piece of «rit oodflsh, skin side up, in a frying pan and cover it with cold water when the water is hot pour it off and replace with freeh cold water and beat again. When the fish is sufficiently freshened dry it with a towel, taking care not to break it dip in melted butter, season with salt and pepper and broil on a fish gridiron. When it is nicely browned on both sides, spread a little butter on it, lay it on a hot dish and pour over it a tablespoonful of vinegar or a little lemon juice. Then, if you will garnish it with parsley, you will have a tempting and palatable dish.

A Thanhegtvtng

Padding

Roil six butter crackers and soak them one hour in three pints of milk. Cream a quarter of a oupful of butter with a cupful of sugar, add one teaspoonful of mixed spice and half a teaspoonful of salt, and, when all are well mixed, six beaten eggs. Stir this into the milk and add, one pound of seeded raisins. Bake in a well buttered deep pudding dish, in a moderate oven, three hours. Bake slowly, and during the tint of the baking lift up the raisins with a spoon to prevent their settling to the bottom, but do not stir the pudding away from the dish.

Fashions in Sachets.

Sachets are still made very large. Some of the loveliest are of shot satin, embroidered with exquisite shades of silk and lined with white silk. There is a fashion of having night dress, corset, handkerchief and glotro sachets all to correspond, and together they form a very handsome present. These are costly to buy but can be manufactured at home at a much smaller expensd. Tho great thing is to get artistic colors the ordinary pale pink a*d blue have been used and used till one tires of the sight of them,

oyftter Pie.

For an oysfer pie cover a deep plate with rich paste, and bake it then till with oysters seasoned with a little salt, pepper and plenty of butter, and two hard boiled eggs, sliced. Cover with just a sprinkling of cracker crumbs, pour over all the liquor from the oysters and cover with puff paste, securing the edges well and pricking the paste several tim«a with a fork. Twenty minutes in a hot oven are required for baking,

Squash Fritter*.

A good way to use cold boiled squash or pumpkin is, "first, to rub it through ft sieve, then to each pint of squash add one weil beaten egg, two tablespoonfuls of flour and season to taste with salt and pepper. Drop from a tablespoon ttito a frying pan half full of smoking hot lard, and when cookcd serve very hot,
