HOW TO CUT A DRESS.
“To begin with,” said Aunt Mary, taking
the front piece of the paper pattern and
folding it over carefully nt the waist line,
“select a thread that runs from selvedge
and place this crease I have made nt the
-wafsi line upon it When you are sure the
waist line ft your pattern is perfectly even
with the groin of the cloth, smooth out
your pattern top anil bottom, and after se
curing it firmly to the cloth nt the waist line,
pin it firmly to the cloth and cut it out.
Do not mind if the pattern slopes a little on
the front from the bust to the neck; the
waste of material will be very slight. See
that your waist line is straight then go
ahead; and I would advise you to cut one
piece at ft time until you have more expe
rience.
*‘Frdm the second bins to the first seam
the waist lino shows a slight upward ten
dency," said Aunt Mary; “perhaps you
have'not noticed that your own waist shows
this tendency ns yon approach the hips; but
ns the line from the hem to the first bias
and from the first to the second bias is
straight on the cloth, that part from the
second bios to the first seam must be
straight, as it is not a separate piece.
“You see, I notch and mark carefully just
as I am instructed to do by my pattern,
and across from notch to notch on the wniHt
Jine I pun a thread for of losing sight of this
•very important line.
Aunt Mary proceeded to cut piece nfter
piece in the same careful manner. When
all was ready, she said: “Now, Solly, there
is a great deal to learn about bnsting a waist.
\ou cannot baste it any way. By that X
mean you cannot properly begin to baste
every seam at the top or bottom of the
waist. There are a few rules which, if fol
lowed, will surely insure good seams and
consequently well fitting dresses.”
“Here we have the front and back of this
waist. By that I mean the right and the
wrong side of the calico, So hereafter in
speaking of the f; jnt you will know I mean
the right side, nnd in speaking of the back
yon will know I mean the wrong side of the
cslico. The biases are the first to bo basted.
Secure them by pinning at the waist line,
then evenly up and down so that they will
not slip when you baste them; then with
the front toward you baste finely, remem
bering that the liner the bastings the nicer
tho seam when stitched. The next two
seams pin and baste with the fronts toward
you, remembering to secure nt the waist
line first, und be very earejul not to stretch
the cloth. Tho next seam yon will secure
as usual at the waist line, then pin about
an inch above that, and from there toward
the bottom of the waist with the front
toward you. Now turn it so that the back
will be toward you nnd pin from above the
waist line toward the top. Baste in the
same and you will have no trouble in mak
ing this set nicely back of tho hip. The
ronnding piece that sets in the curve of the
back piece must be put in very carefully.
Hold the back toward you, nnd in basting
from the top to the bottom he very careful
not to draw it any way. Let tho ronnding
seam fall easily into tho curved back. The
backs are sloped a little as the waist line is
approached, nnd you will have no difficulty
in getting them oven if you secure them at
them at the waistline first. Now the shoul
der seams look as thongb they intended to
trouble us. The backs seem too wide for
the fronts. But see here; yon pin tho ends
firmly. The back still looks too full; give it
n gentle pull; not too much, but jnst enough
to show you it will fall in place cosily, and
nin and baste as you have seen me pin and
baste every seam.
“Now we win examine it,” said Aunt
Mary ns sho spread the waist out on the
lap-board, nnd called my attention to tho
thread which ran in n continuous line
around the waist.
Tickling in the thront is best relieved by
a gargling of salt and water.
If an artery is severed tic a small cord or
handkerchief tightly above it.
For bilious colic, soda nnd ginger in hot
water. It msy be taken freely.
Pains in the side are most promptly re
lieved by the application of mustard.
For cold in the bend nothing is better
than powdered borax sniffed up the nos
trils.
Nervous spasms are usually relieved by a
little salt taken into the mouth and allowed
to dissolve.
Broken limbs shonhl placed in natural
positions, and the patient kept quiet until
the surgeon arrives.
Whooping cough paroxisms are relieved
by breathing the fumes of turpentine or
carbolio acid, Use with great care.
Sleeplessness caused by too much bloCd
in the head may be overcome by applying a
cloth wet with cold water to the back of the
neck.
Hemorrhages of the lungs or stomach are
promptly checked by small doses of salt
The patient should be kept as quiet os
possible.
Sickness of the stomach is most promptly
relieved by drinking a teacupful of hot soda
nnd water. If it brings the offending mat
ter up, all the better.
For stomach cramps, ginger ale or a tea
spoonful of the tincture of ginger in a half
glass of water in which half a teaspoouf nt of
sOilu has beeu dissolved.
Wind colic is promptly relieved by pep
permint essence taken in a little worm
water. For small children it may be
sweetened. Paregoric is also good.
A teaspoonful of ground mustard in a cup
of warm water is a prompt and reliable
emetic, and should be resorted to in cose of
poisoning or cramps in the stomach from
overeating.
Avoid purgatives and strong physic, as
they not only do no good, but are positive
ly hurtful. Pills may relieve for the time,
but they seldom cure. Stomach bitters
are a snare, and only create a desire for
stimulants.
Powdered rosin is the best thing to stop
bleeding from cuts. After the powder is
sprinkled on, wrap the wound with soft cot
ton cloth. As so on as tho wound begins to
feci feverish keep the cloth wet with cold
water.
llow to Cook Chickens*
Chicken fried with salt pork.—After a
very tender chicken is cleaned and cut up,
roll the pieces in flour seasoned with salt and
pepper; slice half a pound of fat Bolt pork in
thin slices, put it into a frying-pan and fry
it brown; then take it np and keep it hot;
put the chicken into tho drippings and fry
it brown. Wien the chicken is brown cover
it with boiling water, season the gravy pnl-
atably with salt and pepper, let it boil for
a moment, and then serve the chicken and
fried pork on the sauce-dish, sending tho
gravy to the table in a bowl.
Old-fashioned Chicken Pot-pie.—Cut the
chicken as for a fricassee. Chop a quarter
pound of salt pork, nnd with it cover the
bo!
ttom of a wide-mouthed, rather shallow
pot. Next lay in the pieces of chicken; sprin
kle with minced onion, nnd just cover with
cold water. Over this lay a thick biscuit
crust, pretty short. Stew one hour nnd n
half, then cut by holding a red-hot shovel
close to the crust, or if yon have a stove cov
er that fits the pot heat this very hot and fit
it on, leaving it five minutes or so, the pot
being drawn to tho side of the stove, where
it will ba hot without boiling. Now lift thr
crust out with a fork nnd cake-tumor, nnd
cover to keep warm. Take out the chicken
nnd set over boiling water. Add n little boil
ing water to the gravy, thicken with a table-
spoonful of browned llonr, season with pop-
par, salt and parsley, and boil one minute.
Then put in square or strips of pie crust,
cook gently ten minutes, arrange the chick
en on a fiat dish, lay the dumplings on it,
pour tho gravy over thorn and ewer with
crust.
Theories About Eating.
Dr. B. M. Hodges onco read a paper be
fore tho Boston Society for Medical Im
provement, in which ho touches on this
question, upon which so many doctora dis-
X ce, and said; “It is n common impres-
n that to take food immediately before
going to lied and to sleep is nnwlsc. Such
a suggestion is answered by a reminder that
tho instinct of animnls prompts them to
sleep ns soon ss they linve eaten; and in
summer nn after-dinner nap, especially
when that meal is taken nt midday, is a
luxury indulged in by many. If the ordi
nary hour of the evening meal issix or seven
o'clock, and the first morning meal seven or
eight o'clock, nn interval of twelve hours or
more elapsed without food, and tor persons
whose nutrition i* at fault this is altogether
too long a period for fasting. That inch on
Interval without food i» permitted explains
■W»ny ft restless night and much of the bend
hiid backbone, and languid, holt-rested con
dition on rising, which is accompanied by
.po appetite for breakfast. This meal itself
often dissipates these sensations. It is
therefore desirable, if not essential, when
nutriment is to crowded, that the last thing
before going to bed should he the taking o!
food. Kleeplesmess is often caused by star
vation, and a tumbler ot milk, if drank in
the middle of the night, will often put peo
ple to sleep when hypnotics would fail of
their purpose. Food before rising is an
equally important expedient It supplies
strength for bathingand dressing, laborious

How to llroll Oysters.
Take a quart of oysters, and if yon are an
“old enstomer” nnd tell your fisli man that
you wish them for broiling he will probably
select some lnrgo ones for you, otherwise von
will hare to buy them by tho dozen nnd they
should be fine nnd firm. Have one-half cup
of very dry bread crumbs or pounded crack
ers, sifted almost as tine as flour, pepper to
tasto and half a cup of melted butter. Dry
the oysters by laying them ou n clean cloth
and covering with another. Dip each in the
melted butter, which should bo peppered,
roll over and over in the cracker crumbs and
broil upon one of the wire gridirons made
for tho purpose over a clear fire.
By tho way, if your firo should biaze up
from the grease dropping upon it, os it is
very spt to do when you are broiling chops
and the like, just lift the broiler and natter
salt over the flames, when they will imme
diately subside.
The wire broilers mentioned above are
fine, hold the oysters firmly, and can be
safely turned when one side is done. Five
or six minutes should cook them. Butter
and pepper a hot dish and servo the oysters
in it or on triangles of buttered toast im
mediately.
