THE REVIVAL OF MENDING.

An Ail That Has Been Too Long Neglected Is Now Being Cultivated. As ready made clothing becomes better and more moderate In price one not infrequently hears women say, "Oh, it doesn't pay to mend very much" when new hose, new undergarments, and new gowns are to be bought so cheaply!" A more frequent excuse for the neglect of ''the stitch in time" is that made by thq woman who says that she'likes to make new garments, but either cannot or does not like to mend.

In regard to the first class,

Women

who

•wear good clothing know that only cheap material, poorly shaped and made, is sold at very low prices, and that it does not pay to mend hose, fine flannel underwear and other garments, except such as, like the one hoss shay, go to pieces all at once. Probably the reason is to be found in the decay of the fine art of mending and of, darning, which once dealt with rents and boles in away that made it difficult to detect. Things were made "as good as new." Since the revival of needlework mending and darning are once more becoming interesting, and instruction in these branches is as eagerly sought by those who have not the talent as a knowledge of the newest stitch in embroidery. The mending class may yet become, as popular as that in china painting or cookcry, and certainly presents an opportunity to a woman skilled in such uses of her needles.

The well stocked workbasket contains many materials for fine mending unknown to our grandmothers. There are the braided skeins of fine silk's in many colors and cut in needle lengths that are to be had for less than a quarter of a dollar, and the skeins of fine thread, in tans, grays, and other shades, for glove mending. For stockings there are yarns of cashmere and of cotton, in colors and in fadeless black, and Balbriggan cotton for unbleached hose, underwear and towels. Tho latter cotton comes in skeins of deep cream color, and is untwisted, so that one or several threads may be used.

For bleached towels of fine quality and for table linen there is a wjiite flax thread that comes by the skein. The cashmere yarn is suitable for mending colored flannels. Rolls of silk tape may also be had for binding over underwear, or some of the firm narrow ribbons that are often sold for irom three to five cents a yard. Cotton tape o£ good quality is often less bungling to sot under a spot where a button has been torn away than a small patch of cloth. For lace mending, a small ball of

4,laco

thread" is kept in the basket and is used to imitate the broken stitches of the lace as closely as possible, the piece of lace to be mended first being basted on a dark leather kept for the purpose. For patching or putting new parts into ordinary cotton garments, a piece of lightweight muslin that bus been washed and ironed should be kept at hand and used with a needle and thread of medium fineness, as coarse thread tears the old fabric.

As an incentive to keep tho buttons sewed on lier shoes, a little maiden was given a Japanese boy doll fitted out with linen thread, buttons, needles, thimble and scissors. Tho skein of thread is disposed of as a cue, the buttons are kept in a small pocket in his robe, the thimble, like the card of Ah Sin, is in one sleeve and the needles in tho other. On a narrow ribbon about the neck are hung tho scissors.— New York Post.

Ono Tltlng at a Time.

Nothing is more sure to bo slow poison to the systems of American women, with their consciences and their nerves, than tho gnmo of "laps and slams." When you stir cake, do nothing else when you bake it, rest if you need it. Do not stand around wasting good muscle and nerve "waiting."

Plan your work in your brain then let your brain rest, and it will bo again ready for work when your body is tired and its work done.

Cultivated women do not work with the samo good results physically as peasant women, for the latter work with their minds free from all thoughts but of their •work, while tho former work wishing often •thoy were anywhere but where they are or if not this, still their minds are working in many different lines of thought.

When you find you aro nol taking things ono at a time and simply, and therefore thero is confusion and fatigue, stop short!

Take ten minutes' rest, lie down with thought of your weight only and you will bo astonished at tlvo results. Everything will clear, and you will start fresh, as if after a good sleep. The day that is the most full of pressing care is the day when you cunnot afford not to take at least one such rest.

To prevent this confusion cut off each duty from its successor begiu anew with cacli task and get in a deep, slow breath before each change of work.

These are the simplest directions, but if followed they will surely prolong the lives of all our faithful housekeepers and a set of fresher facet! old ladies will grandmother the next generation.—Boston Herald.

Arc Women Kudo When Shopping. Men are apt to make uncomplimentary remarks concerning the way in which a woman conducts her shopping. She is represented as rude, unmindful of tho trouble she gives the assistants that half the time she does not intend to buy that &he does not know her own mind. Indeed she is shown to be a very disagreeable being. But there are always two sides to a story, you knovr. "Many of us," says one of the maligned, '•are keenly aware of tho last mistake we made, because we tried to decide quickly, too quickly it proved. We spent the whole winter regretting that wretched bonnet. Overpolit© assistants will t«U you anything to make a sale. They would try to make you believe yon look like an angel in a hat that is positively ugly on you. And so, to be equally polite, are wo to take the article at ouce and give all our friends th® nightmare foj the rest of the season? "We have to pay for the article. We are the ones to be suited and those waiting on us are paid for their labors. It is not ^ohr fault if they have nothing that will

Out of my own experience I ml-

frtm all women not to be too easily per..Miaded. A woman of a timid nature, not iwishing to be a nuisance, recently allowed herself to choose a carps* in a room where •be light was poor. She was sorry when tho carpet was laid. What was bcr cha-

«aslly mistaken for

reraaiy, and tho woman had to pay her money for a purchase that was frightful to her, all simply because she had not insisted upon her rights. Don't be oversensitive of the reputation you have as a shrewd shopper. You will need all your worldly wisdom, all your experience and all yonr powers of discretion to choose ^wisely and well."—London -Tit-Bits.,

Cures for Worn Out Face

I»i one knows the care of a house inall its departments,as one who has tried it for years. No one can.know the weariness of selecting, planning and knowing just what will be served (and better than any one else, too, just how it will be served) for the 1,095 meals which are needed to give one's.family a year's growth, except one who has planned that number for several years.

Over and over again one hears, "She is worn out she has kept house, for .fifteen years, and she is the best housekeeper I know." 'All through the history of humanity a need calls forth a supply. Each condition of suffering or demand has through all ages brought forth its cure, its reply.

Sometimes we do not see the cure as quickly as we might, but it is always waiting, always ready when our need is great enough to drive us to it.

What, then, is the response here ,to the hundreds of .drawn, tired faces the hundreds of strained, tired voices the hundreds of broken down women who instead of ripening into a vigorous old age wither and droop'into different stages of incapacity and suffering?

The answer is here: t, Learn bodily economy. Spare ypur forces as you spare your on Watch your bank account of muscular and nervous strength.—Boston Herald.

Causes 'of Wrinkles.

Wrinkles are not entirely the marks of time, but they are often the unmistakable outward signs of our inward nature. An habitual laugher will have wrinkles earlier than those with grave, sedate faces.. Indigestion will produce crow's feet in children, and a little tvorry through life will make an habitual frown develop into tiny wrinkles betweeh the eyes. But an habitual grin or laugh on the face produces wrinkles more than sickness or disease. The invalid of many years will often have a perfectly smooth face, unmarked with .wrinkles. This is due partly to the fact that her melancholy life prevents her from laughing much and no creases are made in her immobile face,

Wrinkles areoftein oxprgssive of an'inward character which gives true dignity to the face, which is far more to be desired than the perfectly smooth, expressionless face. The wrinklfes which come from care, trouble and irritation are the only ones which mar the face without giving anyi compensating value. They should be avoided by every woman, for it makes her old before her time and robs her of her beauty. The way not to have such creases is not to think of trouble, but to look on the Bunny side of life.—Yankee Blade,

What Women Should Read.

Woman's Respect for Woman. Take notice when you ride on the street car and you will observe that the women who expect so much courtesy from the men show little or none to their own sex. They spread themselves over the seats so as to prevent others from sitting down, the excuse being that they are anxious not to have their dresses crushed by crowding, and if they havo children permit them to wipe their feet all over their next neighbor. In tlio shops they notoriously lack considerateness for the clerks, crowd one another outrageously and refuse to await their turns for attention. On board of sleeping cars they are apt to exhibit the utmost indifference to each other's comfort, two or three occupying the washing quarters by the hour, to the exclusion of the rest. It would not be a bad idea, I should imagine, to introduce in the training of little girls a slightly more vigorous discipline respecting the consideration' which they ought to show for their fellow beings in petticoats.—Washington Star.

Wages of New Tork School Teachers. There are 4,213 teachers in the public schools of New York. When a normal graduate gets her appointment, she does substituting for the munificent sum of $1.25 a day—less than day laborer's pay. When she gets a school her salary is £408 a year, and at the expiration of fourteen years of meritorious service they shall be paid a salary of not less than $750. The fidelity of these women is best illustrated by the following extract from the educational schedule for the year ending June, 1891: Number of teachers employed—ten to twenty years, 349 twenty to thirty years, 590 thirty to forty years, 383 forty to fifty years, 55 fifty to sixty years, 4— and a black swan is not a rarer bird than a rich schoolmarm.—San Francisco Argonaut.

Books and Costly Bookcases. A person who has noticed the absence of books in many otherwise completely equipped houses says of it "Look around your friends' houses today and figure up what the rugs, ornaments, curtains and other beautiful things cost, and notice that in many of their handsome rooms books are wholly missing, or confined within a case almost double in value of all the books it contains. It cannot be that these people who have card receivers, fares, paper cutters, china, silver, crystal and bric-a-brac without end have not the wherewithal to buy books."—New York Pest.

In a sermon to women upon the art of conversation, a writer advises women first of all to know something to talk about, and as a means to this end he advises them to read newspapers. He says: "I do not mean read the marriage notices and .the deaths merely. I do not mean read the sensational item!) about the latest murder or divorce or theft. You will be far better off if you do not read many of these things. Bead the editorials, read the doings of congress, of the senate, of the matters before the legislature of your own state and of other states read the items relating to the affairs of the Old World. These things, which are the doings of the present, will enter into the history to be written in the future, and I know of no way to keep up with current history, either of your own or other countries, than by reading the papers. "But not merely are you to read the secular papers, but you are to read as well the religious newspapers. You cannot have a true knowledge of history, either current or past, without knowing the religious history of the world. Then there is the magazine literature. This contains much of the history of current thought." Biography, tho best poetry and the best novels are also recommended.

to the decorator are frequently the source of deligbif'il whims. An alcove we recently notl.id was reduced in height by fretwork side and"top, and provided with a corner divan the walls were treated with paper, different entirely from the contiguous room, which was cream, with1 touches of brown but the alcove showed its walls aglow with deep pink, as though from the reflection of a heavy red shaded standard lamp. The effect upon entering the room and getting a glimpse of this alcove was very pleasing, and at first sight was attributed to the lamp.— Philadelphia Upholsterer.

From Tripe to Millions. jvA/ "I

One of the richest women in New York began life as a girl down in Maine by collecting tripe, which was so plentiful and so despised that it was tHrown away. She discovered its .value as fcfod in cities and began the work of bringing it together in quantity', and employing children'to clean aqd prepare it for market. She created in this way an actual industry, which assumed large proportions, but which she left in other hands when she had made money enough to risk coming to New York. In this city she began by acting as agent for a corset manufacturer, but worked her way into real estate and amassed a fortune of half a million of dollars.—Jenny June's "Thrown on Her Ow~ Resources." j*?* ""j

Size of Hams for the Household. The size of a ham has much to do with the way in which it should be served. A whole ham will boil more satisfactorily than a part of it. For ^roiling o* 'frying never use a ham of less than fourteen pounds, and one weighing .fifteen or sixteen is better still for this purpose. Only the center of such a ham, however, should be sliced. Take off" at least.two inches •from the large end of the ham in one cut. Then slice up the remainder as it is need-ed,-until the upper joint in the bone is reached. This shank, with the other end first taken off, may be used to advantage. —New York Grocer. A

A Woman Judge in England.' A lady acted as a judge in this country in the reign of Henry VIII, and the woman upon whom this unique honor was conferred was Lady Anne Berkeley, of Yate, in Gloucestershire. She had $ppepled to the king to puiiish a party of rioters who bad broken into her park, killed the' deerand fired the hayricks and his majesty granted to her and 'others a special commission to try the offenders. Armed with this authority she opened "the commission, empanneled a jury, heard the charge and on a verdict of guilty being returned pronounced sentence.—London TitBits.

The lee Box.

The ice box should have double sides, bottom and lids, with the space between' the casings filled with a nonconducting substance. The inner lid should be air: tight, and the drainage pipe so arranged as to carry off instantly every drop of water from the melting ice. Perfect draining is more of importance than exclusion of the air, but the pipe to be of the greatest, value should be fitted with a trap or cov-1 ored in such a manner as to prevent the cold air escaping. Waste is also prevented by wrapping the ice with a thick blanket or flannel.—Brooklyn Standard-Union.

Always Convenient.

Let us congratulate ourselves on being able to have soup at small cost and with little trouble. Always keep a little jar of good beef extract on hand. Then you cari^ with a quart of water and two teaspoonfulsof extract for foundation,'make soup which will be appetizing and economical, since you can use up almost any bits of food you have. One cold boiled potato, a slice of beet and carrot, part of an .onion and a spoonful of mashed turnip—"each and all" are good in a way Emerson did not think to mention in the poem.—Exchange.

Airing the Bed.

How long shall we air pur bed? Just as long as possible. A good way to air the clothes is to place two chairs at the foot of the bed, two or three feet away, then draw the clothes from the bed over them smoothly, leaving the mattress bare. In this way tho mattress gets aired and the clothes have a better chance than when thrown over chairs. The pillows are beaten up and placed in the air, but not in the sun, as that makes them smell oily.—Good Housekeeping.

Fruit Stains Conquered.

To remove fruit stains from white goods, mix two teaspoonfuls of water and one of spirits of salts let the stained part lie in this for two minutes, then rinse in cold water. If the stains have been in along time, rub the spot on each side with yellow soap, then put on starch wet with cold water and rub it well in hang the article in the air exposed to the sun for several days. —Good Housekeeping.

A Butterfly Screen.

A butterfly screen for a chandelier globe or small lamp is made with a gilded clothespin. The rounded top serves for the head and through the pin are crinkled two wide, pointed wings of tissue paper, flecked with, gilt spots. It is extremely simple to make' and is useful and pretty.—Exchange.

Biscuit Flour Ready for Use. Five or six quarts of biscuit-flour can be prepared at a time by taking one teaspoonful of soda and two of cream of tartar, or three of baking powder to every quart of flour, sifting it thoroughly three times and putaway for u^e.—New York Journal?

FOE WORKIMT GIRLS.

THEIR CLUBS HELP YOUNG WOMEN TO IMPROVE THEIR LOT.

Tho "(Principles Upon Which All "Working Girls* Societies Are Built—Organizations That Iiavo Bone a Great

Deal to Make Women Independent.

Miss Grace H. Dodge, who first thought of the Working Girls' club, and who has so zealously and helpfully lent her cooperation from the beginning, has kindly consented to state the- aims and endeavors of the members and does so in these words:

First—Consider just what a club is, namely, an organization formed among busy women and girls to secure by co-operation means of self improvement, opportunities, for social intercourse and the development of higher, nobler aims. Second—That it is governed by the members for the members. Third—That it strives to be self supporting. It is not a charitable society. It is a cooperative rather than a philanthropic organization. Methods that are usually adopted to start charitable and philanthropic movements cannot be carried out when a Working Girls' club is planned.

A neighborhood or city club, of either men or women, is started by a few who decide that the establishment of such a club would be desirable for social or literary reasons. 'Then others are consulted, constitutions and bylaws adopted, a committee on rooms or location appointed, and their report acted upon by the club., Other committees follow on furnishing, house rules, finances, etc., all the members of the committees being chosen from among those who are toutilize'orhave part in the house, rooms or meetings. Fee and dues are voted upon and other club affairs systemat

If the house or rooms are to be bought, built or leased, capital must often be obtained, and this is loaned on interest or raised among 'the members. Those with large incomes feel it a privilege to give more than the others, who perhaps give time, talent or effort worth more than the money. Outsiders are not admitted to these deliberations, but after the club is located, rooms furnished and all in running order a reception is held, when each club member is priyileged to invite a given number of guests, and from these new members are obtained and fresh interest

HOW A CLUB IS STARTED.

A similar plan is followed in starting a Working Girls' society or club, if it is intended to be founded upon the principles of co-operation, self government and self support. Working girls cannot be forced into a club organized in their interests any more than any other people can be driven into a social club. They wish to know their proposed leaders, and here friendship must be at the root of the matter. To guard against tho springing up of cliques it is well to have the early members.repreif re up at on W leisure, teachers, saleswomen, clerks, steii'ographers, dressmakers and mill and factory employees—if at the start there is :i mingling of these each will bring in friends, and a sisterhood of women will be the result, all interested in mutual aims but coming from different surroundings. The importance of impressing on members their individual responsibility to the club cannot be too strongly urged.

In Europe a working girls' club could not be started because Jhe principles ,of organization are not comprehended as yet. In this country organization is understood because wage earning women breathe the air of self government. The class of girls that come into the clubs are women who are accustomed to join other forms of oi*ganization, such as benefit societies, lodges, etc. There are in this city an enormous number of wage earning women, perhaps 80,000 or 40,000, who belong to the women's branches of the Freemasons' organizations and other societies, and in these they have already learned something about the benefits of associations.

The clubs are giving to girls an opportunity, and are doing for one class what Sorosis, the Woman's Press club, the Wednesday Afternoon club, etc., are doing for others. People say, "Why do you give it the name of the Working Girls' club?" We want to dignity the name of "working girl.",

SOME OBJECTIONS ANSWERED.

The public should know what intelligent and enlightened girls belong to our clubs. There is the "other side," however. Labor organizations say, "We are opposed to you because you are making working girls satisfied with their lot," but is there anything to regret in that?

When people say we do not touch the class of girls that most need help I feel quarrelsome. Where are they? We have girls belonging to our clubs who earn but $5 a week, girls who work for "sweaters," and who do the humblest kind of factory work, and yet we are told we do not reach the really poor girl. I received a miserable anonymous letter two or three days ago, asking why we do not devote our money to better purposes than to New Year's parties at the Madison Square garden.

People talk of things they know nothing about. The club girls know the secret of the New Year's party expenditures, and if they are satisfied everybody else should be. Thfc principles of our movement are penetrating everywhere, and can any one say that the results ate not good?

I am asked by what right I am a member of the Working Girls' club, and why Mrs. Richard Irvin and others are admitted. The club girls settled that question themselves one evening at a discussion. It was decided that Mrs. Richard Irvin and others were working women, but they might be said to be working with money, not for money. It is not a question of dollars «nd cents, or of the kind of work. One member may be just as busy keeping house for her mother as another girl is in a shop, and it was thoroughly agreed that both have an equal right of membership. As a matter of fact I have no more voice in the Thirty-eighth Street club than the youngest cash girL—New York Tribune.

MATf,

Fashionable Women and Helpless Man. During the Roman fashion red fair hair was bought of the German peasant girls, and simplicity returned with the invasion of the Franks. Philip the Fair decreed that no demoiselle with less than 2,OP01ivresa year should have more than one pair of. gowns a year, or more than two -with that income. He fixed* the price of the stuff and provided for and against everything, and the ladies cared not at -all. Tho husbands remonstrated and the. clergy preached, and they cared less.

High head dresses—high heels came later—were preached down everywhere and the "escoffion," a broad cylinder of rich stuff ornamented with jewels and two horns, said to come from England, like many eccentricities, was the object of the most sacred invective and the "hennin," a tall conic tube in brocaded stuff worked with beads and tightly fixed on the forehead, denounced even more. But the ladies would have them, because it was be coming and harmonized with the architecture—the day of slender spires and slim turrets and lofty clock towers.

In vain did Brother Connecte, a Carmelite, of Rennes, undertake a campaign against these "hennins.'', The women came to hear him wearing them, till he seized his' staff and rushed among them, knocking the "hennins" off with the assistance of an idle mob. When he had gone on his way the "hennins" were made rather tallei than before. The poor man went on tc Rome, but as his fervor had grown upon him till he attacked the luxuries of the church, he was arrested and burned.—London Spectator.

Ttere is a very prevalent' idea lhat hotpot, as well as Irish stew, is made of any superfluous pieces of cooked meat that may be conveniently disposed of in. that manner. Of. course they can both be made so, and at times, for.- economical reasons, this serves a very good and useful end and when this is done, tho greater variety of meat put together tho betted it will be. Mutton, beef and fowl may then all be mingled in sweet confusion.

It may l)e made of, either beef or mutton. If you select beef, it must be a nice piece of rump steak, and those who know would tell you to give.it a gentle stewing for half an hour before putting'into the correct pot which is to contain the lot. This of course is to make the beef tender. Whensuffir ciently done, cut it inio pieces, perhajjstwo inches or so in size. Lay some of these at the bottom of the white pot, which1 iW' sold in the north for the purpose and generally has the word "Hotpot" printed on it, though if such a one is not to b,e obtained farther south, a presentable stewing pot or pie dish may lie us6d, fcfr it has to be carried to table, and hfcS»fc' serviette or neat cover of some kind around it.

The

piecesjof beef

laid at the bottom with

a little stock "put on them a layer of potatoes, each cut into perhaps three pieces &dd a little onion, and pepper and salt. Then some more beef and flavoring, then repeat with potatoes, and if the dish will hold two more layers, put them, but potatoes mUst come last, and ought to present a nice, browned appearance. If made with mutton, the treatment of the hotpot is the same, only that the mutton does not require quite so much stewing beforehand. —London Lady.
