herself and her brother, and, as it is
accompanied by laborious handwork,
it i 3 not likely to become common.

and patient labor.—New Orleans Pic¬

THE NEW COTTONS.
It won’t be the fault of her clothe
if the summer girl is not a picture thi s
season. The new cottons are inex¬
pensive and they are dreams ot beauty
■design and coloriug. The latest
novelty is the craped challie, with a
Dresden border. This fabric comes
iu a variety of fine stripes—pink and
white, blue and white, green and
white, yellow and whito and violet
and white. These ehallies are mado
with a white border scattered with
blossoms, which is most effective iu
tho made-up gown.
The pink and white croped challie
shows the whole border stamped in
tiny pink rosebuds. It makes a charm¬
ing gown trimmed with mull embroid¬
ery and white Dresden ribbon in the
pink rosebud design. The white and
yellow challie has the borders scat¬
tered with buttercups and would be

UNIX THE SUMMER GIRL.
Our esteemed contemporary
Philadelphia Times has been
enough to ask a pertinent but
question, a question that is
searching aud reasonable. The
wants to know, you know, whether
the new woman succeeds “the
girl will lose prestige.”
The inquiry is not unnatural, and
does credit both to the head nnd heart
of the Times, aud it is very easy to un¬
derstand the sorrow that would
upon our (Quaker City neighbor if any¬
thing so annoying as the loss of her
prestige should befall the summer
girl.
But the Times has not gono deep
enough into the current tendencies to
see that the question asked is, in its
essence, unnecessary, The closest
students of social movements have
readied the conclusion that tho sum¬
mer girl was tho mother of the new
woman. Tho new woman first ap¬
peared on the piazza of a summer ho¬
tel id a bicycle costume and with a
copy of Browning’s poems under her
arm. The previous season she had
been a summer girl. In the twinkling
of a few months she had become a
new woman, What had been lost had
been more than restored.
If tho Times is as progressive as we
have always found it heretofore it will
accept the new woman as an improved
and enlarged summer girl with extras.
By taking this view of the matter the
Times will have a very jolly experi¬
ence nt the summer resorts this sea
son. —Chic Ttmes-Heral 1 .
LADY WANDESFORo’s UNIQUE HOME.
Tb city of York, Eugland, is full
of old churches and end O \Y ed 4 asylums, j
Of the latter there are seventeen. !
They are of various kinds and include
ho; , ; I ss for old widows, old sailor*;,

lawn anti garden in front bright with
flowers and pretty shrubs. Easy
chairs and seats are scattered about in
the shade of the trees, the -whole shut
awny from the curious gazo by a high,
thick hedge.
The visitor is met at the dcor by a
sweet-faced little woman, the matron.
- i Girls” she always calls the inmates,
although only women who have
reached the ago of rixty years or over
are admitted. She smilingly ami says they
like to be called girls, she humors
the fancy.
Some of the rooms, which aro usu¬
ally fitted up by the occupant, are
very prim and severe, wh'lo others are
as tasteful and eozv ai a fashionablo
young lady’s ‘‘snuggery, ’ > Only ten
old maids can be accommodated at a
time; others desirous of entering make
application and wait for death to make
a vacancy. 11 We have rules,
Says tho matron:
and we have to be very strict about
them, for the g.rls very tiocn get un¬
ruly and troublesomo if wo aro too
easy with them. If they are out after
10 o’clock at night they must pay a
fine of sixpence, and yon would be sur¬
prised at the amount of money 1 col¬
lect iu a month from tho breaking of
this rule, Then, too, they quarrel
about their rooms —they nil want the
front ones, We mado a rule that all
newcomers must take back rooms and
wait their turn to be moved to tho
front. ”
Jn one of the long halls hangs the
portrait of a man, nnd beside it a
man’s straw hat decidedly the worse
for ago and wear, The ineek-faced
little matron blushes ns she explains
that the things wero left there by a
lately deceased inmate, to bo called
for by some of 'tho relatives, and the
shadow of a smile ctavos her lips ns
she says: “The girls don’t object to
having them there, They t Pink it
looks homelike.”
As the visitor prepares to take de¬
parture the matron slip 3 out one of
her cards. ‘‘Mrs. Alary Dickens, it
reads ...... t i Yes,” sho says, gravely,
• > ten old maids are quite a care; it
needs a woman who has been married
to look after them properly.”

FASHION Kui
This is to bo essentially a season in
lace.
Outing flannel shirts have scalloped
edges.
New tailor-mado shirt waists aro of
madras.
Small sizes of dressy fans are seen
in the shops.
The new black veilings are of cube
shaped mesh.
In Paris tho parted hair is just going
out altogether.
Fancy turqnoiso ornaments arc put
on spring hats.
A now color which is much liked is
the French poppy red.
Blue denim makes pretty summer
portieres for country houses.
Tho bouffant sleeves seem now to
have attained their maximum.
Wide black and colored mohair
braid is used for skirt bindings.
Norfolk jacket suits come in pique,
linen, cheviot, serge, tweod, etc.
Short jacket suits in duck or cottou
cheviot will be worn this summer.
Many challie and crepon wrappers
ure in blue, pink or yellow effects.
The latest developments iu chines
are the warp-priuted effects iu colors.
Ruffles of chiffon and lace add
greatly to the beauty of auy parasol.
The full sleoves of thin white gowns
must be lined when designed for thiu
women.
The summer girl will wear four-iu
liaud ties of basket-woven cottou
threads.
The broad bows on the hack of the
chokers are “chic” aud wonderfully
becoming.
The new English cloths are many of
them shown in neutral tones combined
with white.
Braiding seems to have survived tho
winter nnd is fully ns popular as it
was in the autumn.
Scarf snap catches of silver, with
the signs of the zodiac done in enamel,
are the latest in this line.
A chain of small daisies between
two flexible gold bands composes a new
bracelet of an admired style.
Many of the jackets of light-tinted
broadcloth are made with no trimming
save costly jeweled buttons.
Checked taffeta ribbons in light
colors are employed very successfully
on both black and white gowns.
The skirt of to-day is so plain that
it suits many stout women and at the
same time so lull that it suits all thiu
ones.
Tho new shoulder bow is preferably
made of ribbon from auinchaudahalf
to two inches in width, any variety
being admissible.
Jet is more popular than ever, but
is usually combined with bright-hued
beads, and, in fact, all varieties of
simulated precious stones.
There is not as much chiffon and
tulle used on hats not as was seen dur¬
ing the winter and autmnu. Flowers
and laces have taken their places.
Cloth in plain tans and browns is a
favorite material for coats, and not
uncommonly the seams are strapped
over with narrow bands of the same.
Chantilly, strange as most people
think it, is a silk lace from which the
brilliancy has been taken away in pre¬
paring the thread. The real article is
high-priced and beautiful iu design.
Accordion plaiting has been used in
some of the parasols, but it is not 60
effective as might be imagined, The
plaiting his au unpleasant habit of
losing shape, and the result is a j

GRAFTING WAX.
There many formulas for gratt- ,,
are ,
wax, but the best we have ever
used, and one that avoids all hard
lumps in it is the following: Tfllt0
one pound rosin, three-quarters of a
pound of beef tallow and four ounces
of beeswax. Melt the rosin slowly (it
is apt to harden on exposuro to tho
cold if the melting istoo rapidly done);
add tallow and beesw r ax and stir till all
are well mixed; turn into cold water,
nnd when it can be handled pull like
candy. The wax should be carried to
the field in a pail of warm water, and
the bands must be greased when usin o ft
it. The old method of covering the
grafts with clay made plastic by work¬
ing in llxo hands when wetted and
binding it over with cloth strips is also
good, but the wax is more cleanly and
neater.—New York World.
TITE BORDEAUX MIXTURE.
Bordeaux mixture is mado by dis¬
solving sis pounds of sulphate of cop¬
per and four pounds of quicklime in
from forty 'to fifty gallons of water,
preparing the mixture as follows:
Dissolve tiff? sulphate by putting it iu
a bag of coarse cloth and hanging this
in a vessel holding four or five gal¬
lons, so that it is just covered by the
water. Use an carthern or wooden
vessel. Slake the lime in an equal
amount of water. Then mix the two
and forty addjenongh gallons. water It is then to make ready about for
use, but will keep a long time without
losing its strength. When to be
applied Ike to plants with, very smooth
leaves, cabbageiind those of tho peach, pear,
beets, it will ndhera bet¬
ter if alimt one pound of hard soap
dissolve! in hot water be added to it.
This soljtion may be applied to all
plants attacked by fungus diseases.
Another formula for making Bordeaux
mixture Las recently been tried in
France with marked success, and it is
thought to be an improvement upon
the - older tone. It consists of equal
parts of like, sulphate of copper nnd
common Molasses. All three ingredi¬
ents are [issolved separately, then
mixed and ntimntely stirred together.
By addins molasses a saccharato of
lime is fori od on one hand and soluble
saccharato of copper on tbe other.
Succharatobf copper is formed only in
presence okn excess of lime, and its

ns some
times the case
when we set out
onion plants, when a rain has fallen
upon the laud already prepared, we
use a small dibber in place of tho in
dex finger of the right hand for mak
ffig the hole. While I am on this sub
jeet I will illustrate a new stylo of
dibber, that may come very handy for
transplanting onions. The idea was
given me by Thomas Hiday, of Ander
son, ndiana. Lie dibber is made of
ar woo , eight or ten inches long;
the point covered with tin. Tho
gauge is simply a piece of wire bent
with a square angle and inserted
through a hole in the dibber. It can
bo set to mark different distances as
desired. The wire makes the mark for
the place where io set the next plant,
We usually have onion plants three
inches apart. The kind and amount
of fertilizer to use for onions and cab¬
bages depend on the character of the
soil. For mv land I prefer old com
posttoanytkin 3 .el.se; but I also use
potash (asmuriate of potash), nitrogen
in the form of nitrate of soda (espe¬
cially valuable for cabbazes), and per¬
haps phosphoric acid in bone. High
grade, complete vegetable manures
may be used. They supply all necas
sarv plant foods. For 500 pounds you
will be asked to pay about $10 or
more.—Nebraska Farmer.
FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.
Tho time to sell is when tho other
fellow wants to buy.
Bees can be kept in tho city, where
there nre houses with no yards, on fiat
roofs.
Be careful to watch out for leaks iu
hive covers. T~ Dampness is generally
fatal to colonies.
It is well to bo on your guard
againtt rodents of all kinds. They
seek the hives for the warmth of the
bees and their stores, 'Huey have a
stench that bees do not like, and will
eat the combs.
It requires good judgment to buy
horses successfully, aud it requires
just as good to sell them, Farmers
should seek to know what kind of a
horse is wanted, and thea if iu their
stock they have such a ouo to spare
they can sell at a profit.
Tbe worst way in which brood sows
cau be managed is to keep them con¬
fined in small pens and feed them ex
elusive!/ oa corn, bringing them
through Under such to the treatment, spring excessively fat. j

and offspring are liable to di sease.

HOUSEHOLD MATTERS,
WHEN BUYING A CARPET.
When buying a carpet get an extra
(quarter of a yard for ravelmgs to
mend with later. After a carpe is
laid, if there are any places where the
seams packer in matching the figures
of gtr ■ eg wet these places with cold
watej . ftnt] tbey w jH generally dry
smoo th. This is especially helpful IQ
the case of rag carpets, which aro
often inaccurately striped, Buy a
yard more than is necessary for a
stair carpet; tbe position can then be
changed occasionally, an 1 thus is
saved tho wear on the edges of tho
stairs. The extra length can bo
srnoo thly tacked under the carpets at
the top and bottom of the stairs. Cut
a section from on old bedquiit a very
little narrower than the width of tue
carpet and long enough to go tho
whole length of the stairs. Tuck this
in place before laying the carpet.-—
American Agiiculturist.
CLEANING DELICATE WHITE LACE'S.
Delicate white laces may ho cleaned
with calcined magnesia after a receipt
of Madame Modjeska’s, says the La¬
dies’ Home Journal. Spread tho lace
on a sheet of writing paper, sprinkle
it on both sides with magnesia, place
a second piece of paper over it, put
away between tho leaves of a book for
three days, then shake off the powder,
when the laeo will be found perfectly
clean. Laces are given a creamy hue
by putting strained coffee or pow¬
dered saffron in the rinsing water un¬
til tlie right cream or ecru tinge is
procured. White silk laces are soaked
in milk over night, then soused in
warm soapsuds, rinsed and finally
pulled out and carefully pinned down
while damp. Laces must be soused,
gently squeezed and clapped nearly between
the bands until dry or so.
They may be whitened by letting
them stand covered with soapsuds i m
the sun, repeating the operation sev¬
eral times.
SODA SHORTENS THE TIME.
Soda? }Vliy, that’s the most im¬
portant thing in the whole kitchen. It
just halves your work—only don’t let
it get into the laundry. For example,
you put a lump of it in among the
dishe 3 when they are to be washed
after breakfast.
You’ll notice those nice paper dish
pans—that’s why cups keep their
handles in this kitchen, and why a
dozen glasses last more than a week—
you don’t bang them against zinc or
iron.
With all the dishes gathered off tho
kitchen table into this light dishpan,
a lump of soda laid on top and tho hot
water cock turned on full for a minute,
just a turn or two of the mop makes
things clean and ready for the towel.
A lump, or oven a pinch, of it in each
pot cuts the grease out as if by magic,
and with us pot washing has no terrors.
More of it goes into the water with
which the table is scrubbed, says Har¬
per’s Bazar, and is used in the water
for mopping the floor, washing the
windows, scalding the refrigerator,
and before you goto bed at night pour
a little hot soda water down the waste
pipe of the sink, for there grease is
apt to clog and grow rank, and make
disease and bad smells.

Women as Printers.
Some interesting details regarding the
tho first appeorauco of women in
printer’s art are given in in tho official
organ of the Parisian printers, The
general belief that women wore for the
first time employed in typographical
work in 1081 by Rignoux, a printer m
Montbard, is declared to be erroneous,
a printing press worked exclusively by
women having been in regular use in
Italy a century and a half before that
date. The printing office was the con¬
vent of St. James at Mount Ripoli,
and the women printers were sisters of
tho Dominican Order.
Tho sisters of this convent had prac¬
ticed tho art of copying and illumina¬
ting manuscript since tho thirteenth
century. When Gutenburg’s invention
made its appearance the press spread
rapidly in Italy, and every town soon
possessed its printing office, Florence
had one as early ns 1472. It would
have gone hard with the Dominican
sisters if their confessor, Dominieo do
Pistoia and their procurator, Pietro di
Pisa, had not come to their aid by im¬
parting to them a knowledge of tho
now art. The sisters appear to have
devoted themselves to their typograph¬
ical labors with ardor and success, for
between 147G and 1484 more than a
hundred works—a large number for
that period—issued from the convent¬
ual press. It is somewhat curious to
noto that among these works there is
au edition of the Decameron, dated
1478 .—London Daily News.
The Glass Snake.
The so-called glass or jointed snake
does not break to pieces nt the sight
of an enemy, as is commonly supposed,
but like some lizards, throws off its
tail in au effort to escape.
There are several lizards which,
when attacked for instance by a bird,
or animal, will throw off their tails,
and the tail flopping up and down on
the ground diverts tho enemy and
thus gives the lizard timo to get awny.
Tho glass snake adopts tho same
trick, nnd thus frequently saves itself.
It is true, however, that Ibo joints of
the singular crentnro are so loosely
connected that the snake will be
broken to pieces by a blow of a stick,
though the idea of a reunion of the
broken parts is a superstitious ubsurd
ity
The broken joints do not reunite,
though a new tail will grow in a few
months if tbe reptile has received no
other injury.

A Palace Plated With Gold.
The cznr has a palace just outside of
St. Petersburg, known a 3 Tsarskoe
Selo, which was built by Catherine
the Great. It is of vast extent, and
plated over with gold. It took nearly
$ 1 , 000,000 worth of bullion to do the
work, and when, owing to the damp¬
ness of the climate it began to peel off,
Catherine ordered it to be painted in¬
stead.
Some Russian speculators wanted to
scrape off the old gold and melt it
over again, and they offered Cather¬
ine $500,000 for the job. She sent
them to prison for insulting her with
tho proposition, and covered the pal¬
ace with yellow paint.
This palace has rooms walled with
a Man,, jj as a p ar j or CO v ere( i w jth

of one drawing room are of tho finest
tortoise shell. There are 500 apart¬
