STYLES FOR RIDING.

/VHAT THE FAIR LADY SHOULD WEAR ACCORDING TO LONDON RULES.

Hie Riding Skirt Should Be on the Floor About Three Inches When th« Wearer Is Standing—Directions For the Hat, the

Glove and the ISoot.

According to the best tailors, the ridjig skirt should lie on the floor about jhree inches when the wearer is standjig. This makes it just long enough to prevent the feet shoeing when the wearis mounted. The skirt is fitted not jnly to the wearer, but to her saddle, for insure a perfectly fitting skirt the rider always sends her saddle to the sailor after her own measurements have Deen taken. Safety skirts, such as have jeen adopted by some London riders, ind very little favor with expert riders this country.

For the park, when the silk hat is "de rigrueur," a white nccktie and false waistcoat of white pique are generally worn, according to the New York Tribrme expert. For country riding or for aunting the false waistcoat fold and the ie may both be of "hunter's pink," which is the most intense scarlet shade mown. On such occasions a derby or a joft hat—or for extreme negligee wear a jockey cap of the material of the habit —is used.

The new silk hats worn by fair riders this spring are fully an inch lower in the rrown than those worn last season. They nave a bell crown and a rather wide roll-

brim. The silk hat is the only proper bat for afternoon wear in the city. In tho morning or in tho country a felt derby with rather low, round crown or a soft felt lmt in alpino shape js worn. These felt hats are found in black, browns and tans. Tho genuine English derby hat liffers from tho American one in having slifFor blocked crown and is more serviceable. When a hat mado of cloth to match tho habit is worn, it is a derby or jockey cap,

Ono cannot enjoy riding in a pair of alosely fitting gloves. Experts in riding recommend the pnrchasefof riding gloves at least two sixes larger than are worn on ordinary occasions. This gives freedom to tho hand, and this is especially necessary for a beginner to remember. Tho favorite glovo for riders is a flexible gauntlet of soft Russia tan leather or of dogskin, with what is called by tho manufacturer "pricked" seams. Instead of tho edges of the seams being lapped over one another, ns they are in a pic,no {Tlovo. they are held together and stitched in place so that both show on tho outside, Tins makes rather prominent seams. The wrists of these gloves are in a soft gauntlet shape and are held dose by an elastic band. The glove has welted backs in spear points.

The fashionable rider's boot is of patent leather or of russet Russia leather. These boots are made with a medium stilt leg, which reaches over tho calf and with pointed toes. Tho russet Russian boot is especially stylish this season, and tho soft leather makes a delightfully comfortable boot.

RlDlNtf HABIT FOR SaiOOUURU TV* favorite habit- for schoolgirls or children who are learning to ride is made with a Norfolk blouse. This is ft neatly fitting box plaited waist which, is held in by a be.lt of the material of the gown. It is finished by a "step" collar at the ueck. beneath which a neat demivest of white pique is buttoned. The habit skirt for theft* young riders is made perfectly straight so that they can practice riding on either side of the horse. It should just touch the floor when the wearer stands. A jockey cap of the same material of the habit, ft pair of rider's top boots and a strong pairof dogskin gloves complete the outfit, These Norfolk habits are made of light diagonal cheviots and covert coating and for beginners sometimes of plain blue serges.

THE STRAWBERRY.

Directions For Canning and Serving the Qneen of All Berries. It is possible in these days to get strawberries that have all the sweetness and aroma of the wild berry, with the increased size which cultivation gives. Such fruit is not vended commonly in market, but it can be found even in the large city markets, and any one possessed of a little skill in gardening can raise such berries at a trifling expense. The majority of the strawberries brought to market are, the New York Tribune says, raised by gardeners who care more for quantity and carrying power than for quality, and they are often a disappointment in flavor, being acid and lacking the aroma of the wild berry.

The aroma of the strawberry is largely lost in cooking, and it should be used fresh wherever it is possible to do so. In preserving it is essential to can the fruit when luscious and fresh from ttie bed and to use a variety of berry that is of rich flavor. The Wiesbaden preservers. Who are more successful with strawberries than any one else, do not allow their berries to cook moro than a moment. They fill the cans with the fresh fruit and set them in a largo kettle containing water just hot enough to bear the hand. There should be a wooden rack in the bottom of the boiler, and cloth should be packed around tho jars to prevent their touching each other. When they 1x3gin to boil, tho German preservers watch them, and as soon as the berries rise to tho mouth of tho jar they take them out and cover them with a rich, cold sirup. By this means the plump appearance of the berry as well as its flavor is preserved.

There are many ways in which a basket of strawberries may be used for dessert. There arot the daintiest of strawberry tarts made of fresh strawberries. These are simply shells of pastry filled with perfectly fresh, ripe berries, well sweetened. After filling the "shells" with the sweetened berries set them in the oven a few moments to let the sugar molt thou let the tarts cool and serve them heaped with whipped cream. Shells of puff paste can easily be procured from any French baker.

There is no more delightful ice erean: than ono mado of the juice of rich, ripe strawberries and fresh cream. Stir a heaping cup of granulated sugar with the yolk of three eggs. Mire well and add to a cup of boiling milk. Stir the mixture thoroughly in a double boiler, or a saucepan set in another holdirg boiling water, for about four or (Ivv minutes. Then add to the hot mixture a pint of very rich cream and the juice of a quart of thoroughly ripe, rich strawberries. Freeze the cream carefully and serve it with white cake daintily iced and flavored with bitter almonds.

Parasols of tho Season.

A very lovely one is of opal tinted iridescent silk, with folds of straw colored chiffon laid over each rib, with a chiffon bow with a bunch of roses of the same tints as the silk and a deep, fluttering tc.e of tho chiffon gathered particu-

larly full nt each point. Another consists of insertions of black satin ribbon and black guipure lace lined with gathered folds of pink silk, with loops of the black satin ribbon lined with pink around the peak. A third is all a-flutter with graduated ruffles of soft silk, pinked at the edges, while others of plain crape in the most delicious shades depend upon their linings and on the exquisite bunch of French flowers at the top for their effect.

Shirt Waists.

The shirt waists of the coming season differ from those of hist in the matter of trimming. They an? very simply made, with the fullness gathered at collar and belt. A plaited collarette of the selvage edged silk, round in tho back below the Btanding collar, reaching to the shoulder tips and pointed to the waist in front, is the favorite adornment.

Cleaning I'Icturojs.

In cleaning house one of the principal cares should be the pictures. It is too often overlooked or left to the care of servants, when the mistress should give it her personal attention. Each picture as it taken down should be carefully dusted, and the cord or wire wiped. Then lay it on a table, wash the glass and polish it until it is perfectly clear. Wipe the frame with a soft cloth wet in warm water and rub off all fly specks and other dirt. If the picture is framed with a glass, paste paper smoothly all over the back to keep dust from, sifting through the cracks.

Frames of polished wood, oak, waljmt, or fact anything but gilt will be greatly, improved by rubbing them with a solution 3 parts linseed oil and 1 part turpentine. Apply with a woolen cloth and rub with a dry woolen cloth until perfectly dry.—Philadelphia Press.

A Song of Glndnear.

Her voice is as clear as the voice of a bird, With alight heart she slugs like a linnet, And you hear from her lips never more a pad word, For sjie's glad she's alive, every minute.

But a few months ago she was praying to die, For the hours only anguish were brinf ing:

But Vlavi has brought ber what health couldn't buy, lealth and strengtl^and that is why she is singing.

Punishing Children.

While grave moral faults are often passed over carelessly, a child is frequently very severely dealt with for the tearing of a dress, or the breaking of an ornament, or any other fault that involves trouble or expense, even though the mischief may have been unintentionally done.

Shocking ps the statement may sound, is it not true that when the angry mother relieves her annoyance by punishing the object of it she is really revenging herself upon it for tho trouble it has caused? Certainly it is very provoking to have beautiful things broken and the work that has been the result of much patient labor destroyed through heedlessness and carelessness, yet some time ago when I heard a child who had torn handsome dress answer sagely to another who told her that "her mother would whip her for tearing it," "No, my mother never whips for clothes,'' I felt sure she was in wise as well as loving hands.— Motherhood.

Chinese Women at Home.

More probably than any other nation in the world, the Chinese confine their woiner: to duties purely feminine, so called. FewChinese women, even of the lowest rank, perform services of a menial character. An "amah" (woman or maid) of mine, a really intelligent Chinese woman, said to me once "Foreign women work very hard. Do man's work, wash and scrub and work out of doors. China woman only do woman's Work- Sew and take care of children."

This woman had lived with English women in Hong-Kong many years, had traveled as a servant over England, France and Germany and had been a sensible and keen ob server. What she said was, from a Chinese standpoint, quite correct, and who shall say that her standpoint was a bad one? Surely the care of children and the dainty handicraft of the needle are after all the most purely feminine, and from an old fashioned point of view the most graceful and poetic occupation of women.—New York Tribune.

Just the Time.

Little Things In the Sickroom. When the little one is ill, the first thing is to make the sufferer comfortable. See that his pillow is not too high and is often shaken smooth" that tho sheets- are not crumpled and are well tucked in at the foot of tho bed. Even in health no one can be comfortable with the bedclothes untucked and working up about the ankles. How much greater is the discomfort when one is ill and the grasshopper is a burden and the rose leaf a weight! The same thing applies to the nightgown. See that it is pulled down under the child—it will not stay down, but the operation can be repeated often without- injury to mother or patient.

Dear Mrs. Claflin:— Dear friend I take the pleasure in writing to you to let you know that tnv nieci is still improving, I think as fasi as she can, as she was in a dreadful eon rlition when you began to treat ber with VIAVI.

How Fashionable Women Walk. The elbows arc now carried quite behind the waist. So runs the latest fashion mandate, which isn't as absurd as it sounds, for so universally recognized is the fact that a fine carriage is one of the essentials of a prepossessing appearance that the smart woman carries her head high, her chest well thrown out. and her elbows necessarily fall well back out of way. This is particularly true of women, who realize that the woman makes the best effect is always the tan who carries herself well. On clfWr acquaintance the pretty face beto tell, and somewhere between the the dress comes in for a share of attion as to details with men, and it is to please men that women dress, except a few spiteful women, who dress to aggravate other women.

The Value of Manilla Paper When Cooking. Clean manilla paper is far too useful to be thrown away. It will instantly absorb all grease from fishcakes, fried potatoes, ham or anything of the sort, and it is but a minute's work to slip out the paper and put it in the fire When the dish is ready to serve. Apiece laid over the bread dough, under the cloth, will prevent'the formation of the hard crust so annoying to breadmakers.—Exchange.

Disinfectants.

All the powerful and really useful disinfectants corrode metal and stain crockery more or less. Copperas is the best for household use, a pound dissolved in 12 quarts of boiling water and used hot, being more effective than cold. The valve should be open when it Is poured down closets, so that it need not settle in the pan, which should bo washed daily with along handled dish mop kept for the purpose aud scalding, strong suds, when it will need 110 further disinfection. A large funnel should be set in the pipes of, stationary washbowls, which, by the way, are unfit for a human habitation and unknown in the best modern houses. When the line Astor mansion was built, the owners positively forbade a single stationary liowl in the dressing rooms, mi example which has siuec been followed in other high class houses.—Philadelphia Star.

Recipe For Angel Food.

Dissolve a half box of gelatin in a quart of milk then beat together the yolks of 8 eggs, 1 cup of sugar, the juice of 1 lemon, and stir this into the gelatin and milk, letting it come to r. boil, and then flavor with vanilla. When cold, whip the whites of the eggs and stir into tne custard. Pour this into a mold and place it where it will grow cold.

How Repulsive

Is bad breath, and yet how many otherwise attractive, polite, and particular people afflict their friends with the foul odor of their broath. If there wax no remedy for this, it might excite our sympathy, but as there is no need of having a foul breath, it is an unpardonable breadh of goad manners to obtrude such an offense on good society.

Koul broath arises from disordered digestion which can be corrected by using Sulphur Bitters, and the result will bo a pure, sweet breath.

It gives me pleasure to add my testimony in favor of vcur medicine. Sixteen years ago this month, at the birih of my only child, I was so terribly injured that I had not seen a well hour since until after using your remedy, which I commenced to use a little more than a year ago. I did hot expect to be cured short of a year and a half, but am happy to say that I found myself well at the end of nine months. For ten years I treated with the best physicians, but they did me no good and could only advise mc at the end to take good care of myself» My husband .spent a sirall fortune trying to find relief for me, but in vain.

tors called my trouble prolapsus, but I am sure it was a great deal more, as I was often confined to my bed for days at a time, unable to eat. I suffered terribly with my\nead and came near losing my sight. To all suffering as I suffered I will say that if you will use Viavi faithfully and persistently it will do its work.
