THE TAILOR DRESS.

THOUGH FASHIONS CHANGE, TA1LO* MADE DRESSES. ABIDE FOREVER.

Fashions of the world arc fleeting, Iml tfte tailor mad© gown icicles forever, or at least will bo proper form so long a,« London fashions influence New Ybrn 6^eT13om. the elegant woman who wears the tajlor made gown now—the woman who thinks nothing of spending $100 on a rotj^h tweed for morning wear.

The tailor dress no longer figures at dressy functions as in the dayB of its early popularity, and the woman of «mnil means can no longer afford it, as it is do rigneur only for shopping, for church and for traveling. But the bright tinsels and dreadnanght serges may be made np by dressmakers on the tailor model, and most useful and serviceable are the results. A gray blue cloth, show-

ing a tiny dot of red, is a suitable and pleasing color for summer and is made up without a vestige of trimming, except rows of carefully executed machine stitching. The single breasted cutaway coat shows a line of the vest, which may be of red vesting or white pique. The collar and link cuffs, as well as the white tics, are copied from the modes followed by inen.

Another idea for the simple gown, without which no wardrobe may be accounted complete, according to the New York Sun, shows a plain gored skirt oi mixed tweed in tan, with all •-s of unexpected colors manifesting themselves in unexpected places. A full bodice of tartan or of tho seeded taffetas with changeable luster is worn under a buttoned zouave of tweed with a wired 'shoulder frill lined with the silk and edged with lines of tartan cloth. A twist of silk- and cord edges the skirt at the top, and a fc'dod "stock" collar of silk finishes tho nack. For the more dressy gowns of silk and wool mixtures corded silk, plain satin, and all the curiously seeded and flecked silks, tho tiny patterned brocades so wovon in together as to have tho pattern scarcely defined, ar used in combinations. One gown stands out in distinction from tho rest in that it has full drooping revers of satin like

Another odd little bodice shows stiffened and wired shoulder capes covering tho tops of the sleeves, liko opaulets, with a lino of velvot showing like a vest in between and in turn opening over a satin plastron, whilo bold restoration revers very broad at the top and narrowing in a graceful slopo at tho waist cross one over the other in a rosette, which also closes the belt of folded satin.

Fried Oyntor*.

Select 20 large oysters dry them on a napkin. Dust the oysters with Oour, dip them first into a beaten egg, then in fine sifted bread crumbs and let them lie half an hour or longer. Place in a frying pan a half tablespoonful lard and half a tablespoonful butter. As soon as melted lay in as many oysters as convenient and fry light brown on both sides, transfer to a hot dish and serve.

How to Waah Chltm Silk.

In these days when wash* silks are in common use a few words in regard to washing them may be of interest As silk is an animal fiber, like wool, it cannot be treated in the same way as cotton. which may be subjected to water of all temperatures without injury. Silk should bo washed as rapidly as possible. Examine the articles to be washed, and if there are any parts especially soiled clean them with a little bearine or gasoline applied with a flannel cloth. Then prepare a soapsuds of lukewarm water &nd plunge the garments in it sousing them up and down and rubbing them thoroughly this suds. Rinse them into ft water a little cooler, and the® into a third wawr still a little cooler, and so on until th** final rinsing water is perfectly cold. Do not bine them. Wring thorn out as dry us possible with a machine. Lav them in sheets or other heavy cloths and f©U them as hard as yon caa in firm rolls, Pot them away for an hour, and at the end of that time iron them on Use wrong aide.

NO MORE DARK HALLWAYS.(

HOT* to Bri~hteu Up Oark Ways and Dreary PatliH.

What can bu done \viib an irremediably durk hallway that in the long, narrow house, alas, is not always the chosen haunt of sunshine and cheerful brightness?

One woman has hung hers from frieze to dado with little black and white pictures, and she says 'tis the only possible way to bring light into a hallway's hopeless darkness, says The Illustrated American. She did it all so cleverly and inexpensively that it's quite worth telling about.

She happened to be looking over a pile of old magazines in which were adorable pen and inks. They were large and small, full page or medium single figures.

She carefully cut out 60 or more and then peremptorily ordered down the dismal portraits, photogravures and armor and had the gray walls painted a clean, dazzling white. A deep stenciled frieze of gilt was put on above a gilded picture molding. Then, with the pen and inks under her arm, she went to interview her framer.

She wanted them mounted as inexpensively as possible in bands of wood about as wide as her little finger and enameled white or black, silver or gold.

The lowest estimate the framer could make quite took her breath away. She only gave him about SO of the pictures, and than she went secretly down to a big dry goods shop, where they have names and pictures for sale in a corner of the basement. Here she found she could get strips of black and white enamel wood, oak and silver framing for next to nothing.

She bought sufficient for her 30 pictures. At the glazier's she got the benefit of a wholesale price on 30 squares of glass, and then she went to visit a humble little cabinet maker in her neighborhood. He put the glass and frames and pictures together for a song, and so she framed her 60 pictures within the money limit drawn by her indulgent husband.

They were of every shape and size, some not larger than the palm of your hand, some in groups of four running in a row, and now and then there would be six little felloes gathered in one frame, couples and trios, and the majority single squares. Pull half were provided with brass rings to be tacked flat against the wall, but the majority were to hang in the orthodox way.

When, weary but triumphant, she made her seven hundred and fif ty-sixth and last trip down the stepladder, scarce an inch of the white wall was to be seen, having suddenly sprung into interesting life and unique ber.uty.

Cornraeal for the Skin.

Commeal. the yellow Indian meal of our pantries, is said to be one of the best of cosmetics. Ajar of it should be kept on the toilot stand, and after the face has been washed in really hot water with a pure, unseen ted soap the meal should be rubbed all over it well and gently. Then it should be dusted out of the hair and eyebrows, the face wiped lightly over with a bit of soft old linen, and the skin will feel delightfully smooth and satiny.

Llrer For High Livers.

Calves' liver may be made so very delicate a dish that it is a great mistake to cook it in a coarse way. When it is fried in bacon fat, as it ordinarily is, it simply absorbs the rankest part of the bacon and becomes grease sodden. Calves' liver, served with bacon, should always be broiled. Select a fresh, fine calfs liver, one that weighs about pounds. Let the butcher cut it in rather thin slices. Throw it in cold water for about 15 minutes to whiten it, drain it and wipe it dry with a cloth. Season it with salt and pepper and rub it with oil on both sides. Put it on a gridiron and broil it for six minutes on each side. Serve it with six or eight thin slices of bacon, fried for about two minutes, till they are crisp and brown.

Lemon Cream Pudding.

Place a saucepan over the fire with the rind of 1 lemon and the juioe of 8,1 cup of sugar, 1 cup of white wine and the yolks of 4 eggs: stir this until nearly boiling remove from the fire and add three-quarters of an ounce of gelatin which has been soaked a few minutes in cold water when nearly cold add 1 pint, of sweet cream beaten to a stiff froth. Turn into a jelly mold and set on ice to get firm.

Becoming Broad Skirts.

Pingat seems to have found a happy way out of the unbecoming effect of the broad skirts. In a dress that he has recently sent out to a petito personage, who dreaded with reason the shortening and broadening effect of the gathered skirt, he has solved the difficulty by making the folds exactly like those of a fan, which hang as close as accordion plaits. ....

BEAUTIFUL SERGE SUIT.

PnlTed Sleeves, Fluted Epaulets and Revers Are Necessary

N effective way of making up a serge dress is shown in the illustration. The serge is gray in color and of an extra fine quality.

The collar is a bead affair, with a full rnching of golden brown velvet.

How to Freeste Fruit.

Frozen fruits area welcome addition to dance suppers, as being both refreshing and uncommon! They are prepared after the fashion of water ice—i. e., the fruits are cut or pounded, and when so treated, used without being strained. Fresh and canned material is equally well adapted to this purpose, the only difference being that with the latter half the quantity of sugar prescribed will suffice. Almost any kind of fruit can be used. To freeze oranges, take 1 dozen oranges, the juice of 2 lemons, 1 quart of water and 1-1 pounds of sugar. Rub the rind of 4 oranges thoroughly into the sugar, peel all the fruit, free it completely from pulp and skin. Add the sugar and the lemon juice. After one hour or thereabouts put in the water, stirring stea^'1 until the sugar is quite dissolved. Freeze and serve whfen wanted {wbubii

Care of Clothing.

Here is the observation of a self supporting young woman, and it is a wise one: "My everyday and business dresses are almost ill black I buy about one dress a year of some really high class black material, preferably a Priestley henrietta cloth, which is the most serviceable of asl black fabrics. I have tins made handsomely and in some conservative way. This I keep for a sort of second best then the last year's dress is made over or revamped in some way to maker it serviceable. If it is well and carefully done, it is. to all intents and purposes as rood ass anew dress, and the number of -ctur«s that I have had for wearing sur extravagant clothes to business is lej]p0n.*^Sf

Let fry for few minutes and add one cupful hot milk, stir and boil three minutes, add the beans and a tablespoonful fine cat or chopped parsley, then serve. *.

A Little One's Idea of Crime. A little one had seen that terrible sight— the chain gang—working in the street, and asked for an explanation of the striped clothes and the iron fetters. She was told that the men had been naughty and were being punished. The next time she* was taken out the child escaped from her nurse, and running up to a hulking negro convict looked up into his brutal face and asked piteously: "Did oo steal oo's mamma's sugai

i.ti'Naracs of Japanese Girls. Mauy6f those pretty and suggestive little words that serve as names for Japanese girls are as charming in English as in Japanese, for it is not uncommon for a Jap girl to bear the name of a flower. On the other hand, nowever, many girls in Japan bear the name of some homely domestic utensil, as frying pan or dustbrush. Doubtless this results from the custom common among some people of naming a child for the first object that strikes the father's eye after the little one has come into the world. —•New York Sun.
