THE SOUTHERN WORLD, SEPTEMBER 1, 1882, 11 £otu$cl(old. Prepared for The Southern World. FASHION NOTES. The hlp-panier continues to grow in favor. The rage for wine color has spread to gloves and stockings. Dark gloves and dark hosiery are worn with very light costumes. Veils have almost disappeared, under the influence of shade hats and poke bonnets. Brocade moire is the most fashionable and elegant of incoming fabrics. The corsages of some very handsome cos tumes are laced up in front instead of but toning. A new novelty in parasols, is made of yel low straw, of the same kind used in making fans and “satin-straw" bonnets. The newest French sleeve is wide and straight, much hooped at the azmhole, with out being gathered, and just below the elbow, it is gathered into a band, edged with a lace ruffle. A pretty fall novelty hat, in yellowish straw, has a falling cap crown of brown vel vet, encircled by a graceful twist of brown satin ribbon, with a bow on one side. The brim is faced with brown velvet. The fourreau dress promises to be one of the most useful designs for autumn, for cloth suits, as well as handsome indoor wear; and lace plaited very full, is applied as length wise insertions over a ruffled petticoat, and also as full cascades, and jabot for the front. Hair dressing for September, is indeed very tasty, and becoming to most faces. For evening, the coiffure is worn rather high on the head, and little curls or frizzes extend entirely around the edge of the hair, both on the forehead and neck. The hair is waved on the sides and top. A dainty flower nest ling among the waves, is very pretty. It adds to the entire appearance an attractive ness that promises to be much admired. Ornaments are also used. Among the innovations of modern fashion, one of the oldest is the wearing of velvet throughout the summer. There is this season an infinite variety of velvets—plain, open- worked, plaided, striped, beaded, moired, flowered, and a number of novel devices in v dark Oriental colorings. The plain black Lyons-velvet is, however, the roost favored. The new English brand of velveteen, known as the “Louis” silk-faced pile, is finding a very large sale in America, as it is much used for underskirts and for children’s dresses. Among tlie novelties in small wares are a varied collection of rich colored beads styled Venetian, which, though very pretty in themselves, probably never hails from the romantic shores of the Adriatic. These lit tle barrel-like beads have curious figures traced upon them, the mixed colors com- binod in each necklace being well adapted to the vari-colored costumes now so popularly worn by young people. A single row of beads is sufficient for a necklace. These beads are held together by tiny chains of an. tique silver. Necklaces to correspond with the toilet are much worn, and as assorted real gems are not always available nor desir able even for general wear, the Ven'tian beads enable people to follow the fashion without much expense or fear of robbery. ' Uinta nnd Helps. A spoonful of Paris green in a pail of water is recommended for killinp canker worms. It should not be sprinkled over plants of which the leaves arc eaten—such as lettuce, etc. The cause of rancidity in butter is due to the fact that the buttermilk or the water used in washing the butter, as is the prac tice-of some dairymen,- is not all worked out—water in butter being a leading cause of putrefaction. It never results, as some seem to suppose, because it is not sufficiently salted. To Wash Cowman Daassas.—Take a piece of yellow soap and cut it into bits; two good handsful of bran, and about the same of ivy leaves; boil It altogether, strain it off, and then wash the dresses; rinse them in cold water, and the color will be perma nently fixed; they will only require being washed once in this way. They should not be hung in the air. To Clean White Marble.—A large lump of Spanish whiting must be soaked in water, In which a piece of common washing soda has been dissolved. The quantity of water should only be just enough to moisten the whiting. Take up some of the whiting now become a paste, on a flannel, and rub the marble well with it, leaving it on for a little while, and repeating the process two or three times, if necessary. Wash it all off with soap and water, dry the marble well, and afterwards polish it with a soft duster. A little of the whiting thus moistend is most useful for washing ornamental china, which must be afterwards well rinsed in soapy water, and will be found to have acquired a very bright polish. RECIPES. Tobnip Slaw.—Pare and slice two not very large turnips. Stand in cold water over night. Drain and chop very flue. Prepare same as cabbage slaw. In fact you can scarcely tell but that it is cabbage. These are tried recipes and are excellent. Please try and report. Potato Egos.—Make a mince as for ris soles, but, instead of bred crumbs, use a large supply of mashed potatoes, a little but ter, and for mixing use the white as well as the yolk of the eggs. Press the mixture into the shape of eggs between two table spoons, fry them a light brown; serve with toasted bacon. Pickled Onions.—Take some small onions peel and throw them iuto a stew-pan of boiling water, set them over the fire, and let them remain till quite clear; them take them out quickly and lay them between two cloths to dry. Boil some vinegar with gin ger and a whole pepper, and when cold pour it over the onions in glass jars, and tie them closely over. Baked Rick.—One small cup of rice, one quart of milk, one teaspoonful of salt, one table spoonful of butter to be used in but tering the pudding dish. Wash the rice in two waters and put into the dish, add the milk and salt and bake in a slow oven two hours. It must swell and be a firm mass. If it browns too fast cover until nearly done and serve very hot. Two large spoonsful of grated cheese are sometimes added. Scalloped Potatoes.—Pare and slice as many potatoes as you require for your fam ily. Take a pudding dish, put a layer pota toes, then butter, stjlt, pepper and flour, then potatoes and so on until your potatoes are all used; now pour cream over until it is covered. There must be flour enough to make thick. Cold meat chopped very fine or a few slices of bacon will add to it very much. Charlotte-rcsse with Eaos.—Pour one pint of milk over a half box of gelatine and stand it in a pan of water over the fire until it boils, then add the pelks of two eggs and stir until it cools. Make a quart of cream very sweet and flavor it with vanilla, and add the glairs of two eggs which have been beaten until they stand alone. Whip the cream, and when the prepared custard is cold, beat tj|€m together. Line a dish or a mold witli lady fingers, or what is better slices of home-made sponge cake, and pour the mixture in and let it congeal. Veal Loaf—Furnishes a good relish for supper. Take two pounds of veal and chop it very fine, about as if for mincemeat; two coffee cups of fine bread crums, two eggs well beaten, a teaspoonful of salt with black pepper mixed with it, a little sifted sage, or any other leaf you choose, and a lump of butter to suit your taste. Beat these alto gether in a chopping bowl, and put in an earthen pudding-dish, well buttered; press it down very hard. Bake in a hot oven for an hour. Let it get perfectly cold before you attempt to cut it; then it will be possi ble to cut it in thin slices. Watermelon Cake.—White part—Two cups of white sugar, one of butter, one of sweet milk, three and a half of flour, the whites of eight eggs, two teaspoonsful of cream tartar, one of soda dissolved in a lit tle warm water. Red part—One cup of red sugar, half a cup of butter, one-third of a cup of sweet milk, two cups of flour, whites of four eggs, teaspoonful of cream tartar, half a teaspoonful of soda, one teacup of raisins; be careful to keep the red part around the tub or pan, and the white around the edge. It requires two persons to fill the pan. This is a very attractive and orna mental cake. —Am alia Jaioh. Children who have a little money ought to practice saving something. Many boys and girls of to-day hardly know a higher use of money that comes into their hands than spending it for some foolish thing as quickly os possible. To such, a lesson in self-denial and economy is very important. As go the boy’s pennies and dimes, so, very likely, will go the man’s dollars and hundreds by and by. Without having the spirit of a miser, the person accustomed to save has more pleasure in laying up than a spend thrift ever knows. The way to keep money is to earn It fairly and honestly. Money so obtained is pretty sure to abide with its possessor. Butmoney that is inherited, or that in any way comes with out a fair and just equivalent, is almost cer tain to go as it came. The young man who begins by saving a few dollars a month, and thriftily increases bis store—every coin being a representative of good, solid work, honestly and manfully done—stands a better chance to spend the last half of his life in affluence and comfort than he who, in his haste to be come rich, obtains money by dashing specu lations, or the devious means which abound in the foggy region lying between fair deal ing and actual fraud. Among the wisest and most thrifty men of wealth the current pro verb is “money goes as it comes.” Let the young make a note of this, and see that their money comes fairly, that it may long abide with them. A great deal of heavy washing and wear of bed clothes, can be prevented by basting a width of calico across the end of the com fort or quilt, intended for the head, forming a wide binding which can easily be removed to be washed. To interest, without exciting—to instruct without offending, to please without flatter ing, to be cheerful yet grave, and humorous without descending into buffoonery, are the prime requisites of a public instructor.

After thoroughly testing this variety, usually known as the “Bill Dallas Bust Proof Wheat,” we unhesitatingly pronounce It the surest cropper yet originated, having loatonly one crop In ten yean, and that from the fly or some Insect, not rust. We have never known It to rust. It It classed by mlllen as a white wheat yielding first-class flour. It appears to be a hybrid—a smooth-headed wheat with almost Invariably some bearded beads cropping out amongit It. The crop fust harvested shows the largest yield of any variety In this section, the yields to far re ported being from 21S to 30 bushels per acre. PRH'EM .
